As promised, here is part 2:D

1. Keep an eye on them. You never really know what they're up to, so it's a good idea to spend time with them now and then just to see what's on their minds. This is also a good time to reinforce any point you have been trying to make lately.
2. Never let them see you sweat. If you lose your cool, you lose your power. Where parents are concerned, indifference is your greatest weapon. If they're having temper tantrums and laying down all sorts of ridiculous rules, don't argue. Don't show any reaction at all. This drives them nuts. When they're finished, calmly suggest that it might be better to have this discussion when they're feeling more rational. ( When I'm in this situation, I suggest anger management:lol::wink: )
3. Show, don't tell. Parents can be really stupid, and yes, they need everything spelled out for them. So if you want them to think of you as someone other than a 10 year old, you have to act grown up around them so they really get the picture. They need to see you completing your schoolwork, doing your chores, and generally acting like you're in charge of yourself. This is the only way they will "get it."
4. Make it appear as though they're not really losing the battle. Make it a win-win situation by giving them a point for every few you win. If they finally caved in and gave you permission to go to the mall, offer to pick up something that they need. Or, once in awhile, if they argue to let you stay out past curfew, come home early anyway. Try to give them the impression that being responsible is actually important to you.
5. Never give up. You parents have a very short attention span, so it's important to make your point many times. Letting them see you treat your bratty sister lovingly once isn't going to do the trick; they need to see this behavior many times before they come to understand it. Hang out with them and campaign every chance you get. Talk to them at breakfast, call them at school, show up for dinner. Let them know that the only way to get rid of you is by giving you what you want.

Today is the 2 year anniversary of me breaking my right foot in track:evil: Some of you may have heard me talk about it: this is the one where I broke it 2 days before our first meet:evil: I was long-jumping and I tripped over a mound of sand in the pit and broke it:cry: I'm still really mad about this:evil:

I know the title says 10 tips, but I had to split it into 2 parts because it's too much to type and too much for you guys to read:D Enjoy!:lol::P

1. Encourage their good behavior. On those rare occasions when they do something right, reward them - offer to stay home and babysit while they stay out way past curfew. Remember that if they get the idea they can't please you, they'll stop trying all together.
2. Don't be overly critical. Although it may be hard to believe, parents have feelings too. When you correct their behavior, try to add a compliment about something nice they've done lately. They respond positively to the words "thank you."
3. Try to conceal your disgust. If you must be out in public with them, walking 10 feet behind them will only draw more attention to your plight. Instead, walk with them and show the world how bighearted you really are. Only a truly confident person would allow themselves to be seen with losers.
4. Be consistent. If your style is to talk on the phone for 4 hours each day after school, don't suddenly decide to do your homework first and use your phone time before you go to bed. This will only confuse them.
5. Don't try to teach them more than one new thing at a time. They are easily overwhelmed and will shut down if you feed them more information than they can process at once.

I hope it was funny:D I added some things of my own to make it more funny:wink: I'll give you part 2 tomorrow:D

Did you know it's National Siblings Day?:? I didn't know that. Oh well. I'm still going to beat on my sister and make her life miserable:lol::wink:

These are from test papers and essays submitted to science and health teachers by junior high, high school, and college students around the world. It is truly astonishing what weird science our young scholars can create under the pressures of time and grades.

I'm extremely upset:cry: I just found out today that my crush had sex with an old enemy of mine over spring break:shock::evil::cry: They're both freshman!!! What the heck were they thinking!!!??? I'm so mad at him right now:evil::(

To Alakard1313: I AM GOING TO BEAT YOU WITH MY KEYBOARD!!!!!!!:evil: THAT COMMENT ON MY PREVIOUS BLOG WAS UNNECESSARY!!!!:lol:

Although this is going to be hard to believe, all of these stories are true:lol::

1. A Florida man, who robbed two men at gunpoint in their homes, dropped his wallet as he left and then called police to ask if they found the wallet.  They said they did.  They asked him to come down and claim it.  He did.

2. A man, wielding a knife, attempts to open the cash register of a store.  Failing to figure out how to do it, he rips the register from the counter and begins running, making it only as far as the length of the electrical cord that was bolted to the wall, resulting in his being suddenly pulled back like a bungee jumper and his falling onto the floor. Frustrated, he begins to cut the cord, still plugged in, using his pocketknife causing showers of sparks to fly about his head and hands.  He eventually staggers out of the store carrying the cash register. Could have made a fortune selling the security tape.

3. Paul Stiller, 47, was hospitalized in Andover Township, N. J., in September, and his wife Bonnie was also injured, by a quarter-stick of dynamite that blew up in their car. While driving around at 2 a.m., the bored couple lit the dynamite and tried to toss it out the window to see what would happen, but they apparently failed to notice that the window was closed.

4. In Guthrie, Okla., in October, Jason Heck tried to kill a millipede with a shot from his .22-caliber rifle, but the bullet ricocheted off a rock near the hole and hit pal Antonio Martinez in the head, fracturing his skull.

5. San Francisco: A man, wanting to rob a downtown Bank of America, walked into the branch and wrote "this iz a stikkup.  Put all your muny in this bag." While standing in line, waiting to give his note to the teller, he began to worry that someone had seen him write the note and might call the police before he reached the teller window. So he left the Bank of America and crossed the street to Wells Fargo. After waiting a few minutes in line, he handed his note to the Wells Fargo teller. She read it and, surmising from his spelling errors that he was not the brightest light in the harbor, told him that she could not accept his stickup note because it was written on a Bank of America deposit slip and that he would either have to fill out a Wells Fargo deposit slip or go back to Bank of America. Looking somewhat defeated, the man said "OK" and left. The Wells Fargo teller then called the police who arrested the man a few minutes later, as he was waiting in line back at Bank of America.

6. Drug Possession Defendant Christopher Jansen, on trial in March in Pontiac, Michigan, said he had been searched without a warrant. The prosecutor said the officer didn't need a warrant because a "bulge" in Christopher's jacket could have been a gun.  "Nonsense," said Christopher, who happened to be wearing the same jacket that day in court. He handed it over so the judge could see it. The judge discovered a packet of cocaine in the pocket and laughed so hard he required a five minute recess to compose himself.

7. A Turkish truck driver, Nazim Canturkas, lit a match underneath the fuel tank of his truck when his fuel tank froze, according to fire fighters who were there to put out his truck.

8. A man walked in to a Topeka, Kansas Kwik Shop, and asked for all the Money in the cash drawer.  Apparently, the take was too small, so he tied up the store clerk and worked the counter himself for three hours until police showed up and grabbed him.

9. Police in Los Angeles had good luck with a robbery suspect who  just couldn't control himself during a lineup. When detectives  asked each man in the lineup to repeat the words, "Give me all  your money or I'll shoot," the man shouted, "That's not what I  said!"

8. As you get older, the pickings get slimer, but the poeple don't.

13. Afterism (n) - A concise, clever statement you don't think of until too late.

18. What's the different between beer nuts and deer nuts? Beer nuts are $1.50 and deer nuts are under a buck.
19. When I was a kid, I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realized God didn't work that way, so I stole one and asked him to forgive me.

I just made this new banner at glittermaker.com:lol: What do you think?:lol: I'm pathetic, aren't I?:lol: DON'T YOU DARE ANSWER THAT ALAKARD1313!!!!!!!:evil: I WILL BEAT YOU WITH MY KEYBOARD!!!!!:lol::P

1. Tell someone - your parents, a teacher, or guidance counselor, or a security person if you're at a mall or in a store. Even if you think it was your fault because you attracted this attention in the first place, let someone know about it. No matter what you've done, getting stalked is never the fault of the person being stalked.
2. Don't try to be nice or polite when you tell the person to leave you alone. Let them know in no uncertain terms that their attention is not welcome.
3. Don't reply to notes, e-mails, or any other messages you get from the person. But hold onto the messages.
4. Find yourself online by entering your name as a search engine keyword to see if there is information about you on the internet that you didn't know was there.
5. Always let someone know where you are going and where you will be hanging out.
6. Make a note of anything that happens in connection with a stalking incident.
7. Avoid being alone, especially in parking lots, at the mall, or at school after classes are over - especially at night.
8. If you are afraid of one person in particular, tell your friends who that person is in case he or she tries to get information from them.
