Shucks Dovv!!:) I have a gigantic test to study for so I’ll head over there rather than spend time finding out that you’re not the one who sits behind me in school!
Dovv-I live on the west coast too! LA ROX! Maybe you do sit next to me…. UH OH!!!!!!
Dovv-where do you sit?:)
With the non-jewish teachers you can have quite a ball! My friend told me that their class told their teacher one chanuka that due to the holiday they can’t write or have homework. The only problem came when the principal found out about that one… Why do they always end up spoiling everything!:)
Naah Dovv-too studious!:) I can’t start studying for my test. Heeeeelp! I already failed one today cuz I didn’t bother studying. How many more can I fail and for how long is the computer the only place that understands me when I say that I CAN’T study????!!!!!!!
I think it’s totally crazy that nowadays every 12 year old is walking around with an ipod altogether! They’re spoiled kids! Maybe a teen can ask for something like an ipod or in that range but why anyone would give a thirteen year old kid this little screen that he can access practically anything in the world on is beyond me. I simply don’t understand why people complain about their kids being spoiled or going off if this is what they’re giving. I think a nice set of sefarim is something to give for a bar mitzva-not ipods and surely not an ipad. (even teens are massively spoiled if they’re getting ipads-they’re a fortune!!!)
the mods are also from all over. I know one’s from Israel and some are midwest. I’m usually on here after 4:30 fiveish till late at night western time.
Someone, have pity!!!!!
If she is having problems with frumkeit she should go to a rav.
Don’t exercise or use any electronics within an hour or two of going to bed. Also, you can listen to soft music (I got a heter to listen during sfira cuz of problems falling asleep) on an ipod (although some say that they ruin your hearing). Also don’t get an alarm clock with a snooze button. I have one without it and so if I want to go back to sleep for even five minutes by the time I reset it i am fully awake.
I just heard of a camp paying $90 a half for jcs and 1,000 a half for regulars. It may not be tops in pay but you get all trips and overnights free plus you can have a blast with friends. A lot depends on the camp and the campers (how difficult they are).
Many times it’s also overeating disorders. I am actually close to someone who used to have an overeating disorder. She was constantly being told off about her weight and she one day decided to diet. She started dieting to the extent that we all thought she was anorexic. We referred her to a special doctor who recommended a certain food plan for people with disorders. B”H she is now loosing weight in a healthy way. That’s all the girls need. They don’t need to be starving themselves “for shidduchim”. Some girls are lucky and can eat whatever they want but girls who do need to watch shouldn’t be starving themselves.
I know another girl who I just came to realize on my own that she probably has anorexia. Someone pointed out to me that the girl will go a day without eating lunch or snacks. Maybe she’ll eat a tiny breakfast and some supper but for the rest of the day eats nothing. Once in a while she’ll eat a bag of junk because of a lack of energy. I doubt she herself even realizes that she’s so skinny that you’d think by looking at her she’ll crumble. I don’t think her parents know about this either.
My computer is already slow. On YWN it’s a trillion times as slow!

Wolfish musings-your reasoning is valid besides for when the whole brooklyn also seems to have a valid excuse to double park. Thank G-d i’m from out of town and we don’t have this crazy problem. I have visited brooklyn and hated it to pieces cuz of the crazy traffic, rush, and pressure.
Last night I heard an interview with the son of Mr. Rubashkin. It’s so sad.
True Bas Yisroel- very true but they can’t make peace with the fact that they’re alone and they can’t settle for a life like that. Yeah, be positive. But most of the time when a person says they’re happy to be single it means that they don’t plan on getting married.
What do you do if you’re plain and simply in the mood of fressing?! I’m trying to diet but it takes an awful lot of self control not to eat when you’re just “in the mood”. I chew gum but how much gum can you chew?!
Nothing with procrastinating but spare time in moderation is fine. After that it leads to eating and for all those dieters……yikes!!
i signed the petition already and all we could really do is send money to the ppl helping him and DAVEN!
DON’T EAT!! its not worth it. I recently started dieting and the only three meals i eat r breakfast,lunch, and dinner. I also have two other snacks in the day. NEVER will I allow myself to eat at 5am.
My friend worked last year as a mother’s helper for some local people and made something like 1,000 for one half. She worked just a few hours a day with some easy kids. When a counselor is working from 9-4 and taking care of tonz of campers (kvetchy ones!) she deserves a lot more than what people tend to get. Sleepaway camp is a different story altogetehr!
