Yaabka-Yaabkiis Posted December 29, 2007 Focus on the positives of each day. Choose your friends wisely. Unlike what many articles state, you don't have to be popular and have a gazillion friends to be happy. In fact, many of the "friends" you have when you are popular are not true friends. Four or Five close friends is really all you need. Play a sport or work out. Having a healthy body leads to a healthy and happy mind. Being confident in your appearance makes you more confident in other areas. Be sociable. Participating in clubs and sports increases your chances of meeting friends. While you only need 4 or 5 close friends, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to meet new people, Participating gives you something to do instead of sitting bored at home and wallowing in self- pity. Go for it! If you have a special girl you want to ask out, dance with, etc. just ask! You probably won't be rejected but if you are, remember that there will always be someone else. Find a hobby you enjoy so that when you can't be with your friends,you can pursue interests you enjoy. Video games are good, if you're the type of person that can get into them. Do your best at everything so you can be proud of everything you do. But remember to give yourself a break when you fail. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. If you are not good at sports, join the band or choir. You'll still be going to games for free like the jocks if you are in pep band, and you have as many opportunities to meet new people as the jocks. Also those band trips may be even more fun than the "jock" trips. BA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skipper Posted December 29, 2007 Pujah that was unnecessary to be honest. If analyst took the time to educate us you should not go on and unravel his sources and make it public. Analyst thanks, i learned alot from it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
