School is out now, summer is supposed to be relaxing and enjoyable.
Instead, I am more or less being forced to wake up at 6-7 a.m. to take my dog for a long walk, and this is the same dog that loves everybody in my family BUT me, frequently biting me too. I am not mean to him, I don’t know why he doesn’t like me.
Then I have to go to a job (im only 16!!, plus I don’t get paid at all) for 7 hours between about 9 and 4, being bored and worked out of my mind for something that doesn’t interest me (im only there because my parents force me to be there)
I come home, I have to walk my dog again for another hour, before being made to make dinner (normally my mom does but she’s been sick for about a month now with some mild cold)…
Then I have to do SAT prep and calculus review or reading before I go to bed.

I get no free time! My parents are always around because they get back from work about the same time I do. I could see my friends but I have to walk several miles to do so.

Is there anything I can do to cool down? I have so much pent-up stress and anger… I don’t want to go back to school burnt out and exhausted.

Thanks a lot to anybody who can help…

Organize yourself by managing your time. Divide your day in three parts and schedule your daily routine tasks accordingly. Do not get stressed because it would not reduce your work….enjoy whatever your do.

I KNOW THAT ITS REALLY LONG BUT IT’S NOT THAT BAD AND I REALLY NEED HELP ASAP!!

i broke up with my ex in december 2010 and last year we were friends with benifits on and off until he found a girlfriend in november and we were still talking and all of that until march when we got into a fight and we stopped talking and then last week he was asking my friend for my number and then he started talking to me and i stayed the night at his house a couple of days after and then the next day he got back with my ex and i was hurt and i decided to write him a letter telling him how i felt and this is what i wrote:

"jordan … you can’t keep doing this to me because all that your doing to me is hurt me even more … look, it’s not that i dont want to ever see you again, trust me i really do, but everytime we have our late night rendezvous, its always the same old story; i see you, my heart starts racing, memories start to come flashing in my head, i fall for you abit to hard and then you hurt me again and i try to move on all over again and i tell everyone that i was always over when the truth is that i am crying inside and i’m stuck missing you all over again. when i seen you a couple of nights ago, half of me was excited and wanted to see you again but the other half wanted to tell you that i couldn’t because im only gonna get hurt in the end and i always seem to come running back to you … i’ve always loved you but it’s killing me to think that you never felt the same about me and i was only your rebound girl (thats what it feels like). when i broke up with you, i was hoping that you would come chase after me but you never did and i was the one who was doing all the chasing … i’m sorry jordan, but i got to try to move on like you did, you made it look so easy. if you really wanted me in your life, you’d fight for me.

love you always, jessica
xoxo

p.s. i will always remember when we first seen eachother at school … summer 2010 will be my favorite summer because we were together and you were in my life"

he didn’t reply back and I was cool with that and I was moving on until early this morning when he randomly texted me “hey I’m sorry for how things went. Just wanted to apoligize” and I told him that it was all good and then he replied back but I didnit reply and then he was askingme why I was still up and I told him that I was spending time with my dog because he was gonna be put down soon and then he told me that he was sorry to hear and then I told him how my grandma and my two dogs at my dads house died each from a week from eachother and then he told me “my goodness. Im sorry to hear all this. Anything I can do to help, let me know” and I told him thank and he told me that I was tuff girl and that I would make it and I was joking around with him y telling him I was tough as a hammer and that I can beat him up but I wouldn’t because im too nice and that hed lose and then he told me that he would lose for sure but we could fight anyways and then I told him that hed like that too much and he said that he would and then we were joking around for abit and then I told him “awh jordy is you crying right now?? Is you??” and he told me pretty close and then I asked him if he wanted a hug and he said yes and I said “awh okay, imma gove you a hug *hug* ya … I just did that. Whacha gonna do about it!!?” and then he told me that he would let it happen and then after 5 more minuites we went to bed.

What do you think?? Does he miss me?? could he want me back?? Or should I tell him to move on?? And should I ask him if he’s still with his girlfriend and if he sais that hes not, should I tell him that if the only reason why hes talking to me is to have a late nightrendezvous, just forget about me and find another girl?? Please help me and tell me what you think!! Thank you!!

You were right. It was long! according to what you’ve written, my advice is, break off completely from the guy. When we love someone, we make all sorts of excuses for them in our heads to make sense of their actions in a way we like but our reasoning is more often than not biased. He clearly doesn’t feel the same kind of love you feel for him. He texted you only to try being friends with benefits again and that is not something you want to do because you will get hurt. I know it takes a lot of strength to move on and determination but you just have to to save your feelings in the long run. You wrote him a letter saying you’re gonna move on so I suggest you actually do it. Only then will he take you seriously. If he cared, he’d have responded to your letter. You want a guy who will treat you like your special and if you keep giving this guy chances he will continue doing what he does best, hurting you. So stay away from him with all the determination you can muster and if by any chance he does care about you, he will work to it. But don’t count on that. I;’m sorry but you really must move on. Hey, looks like my answer turned out long too. Well, happy reading and hope it helps!

During the summertime, it’s important to keep your furry friends cool! Scottish Fold cat Basil Farrow and his mom, La Carmina, share tips for beating the heat.

1) Leave several bowls of cool water around the house. Replenish often.
2) Groom your pets regularly: shaving or brushing.
3) Wipe down your cat’s body with a cool, wet towel.
4) Keep your house well-ventilated, but go easy on the AC and fans.
5) Lick the occasional spoonful of organic, plain yogurt.
6) Ensure there are cool areas for your pets to rest.
- Remember… a cool cat is a happy cat!
