I am ten

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

I am ten

I am ten years old.  So are most of my friends, but they don't like what I do.  Basically I am different, very different.    Any advice?Undecided

back to the Down to Earth

I don't really understand. What do you need advice on? And if you're ten, why did you put eleven as your age? I'd love to help if I can, but can you just clarify what you mean?

Why do you care what they think? Just be yourself! If your friends don't like it, maybe you should get different ones.

I agree with Bekah.  Always be yourself: if they don't like you like that, they're not friends worth having.

Keep hanging out with your friends and try to find at least a few things that you may have in common.  Try some of the stuff that they like to do, then see if you can get them to do what you like to do. (Such as, my 'friends' ((who hate to get wet/dirty/etc.)) and I have squirt gun fights on my trampoline in the summer with the sprinkler on underneath it.  Pretty much the very opposite of them.  Then, we go to their houses and do boring blah like sitting in their room and listening to hip-hop music.... :-\)

Maybe you should collect something that you both like and trade with each other. I mean like collecting stickers, or trading cards of some sort. It's worked for me before.

They don't like that? That sounds like fun! I should get a trampoline someday!

Deixe de pôr mensagens totalmente sem sentido no correio neste site web! (Se este comentário amusses você, ver a minha página sobre "o Senhor dos Anéis" em alemão).

P.S. Do you read portugeus?

Umm, it made no sense at all... I'll post in Portuguese, too!!! :D:D (Have you ever posted in English?!  ARE YOU EVEN REAL!??!?!?!?!?!?!?)

Como pode saber, minha refeição favorita, por distante, é qualquer tipo de burrito, contanto que não tem carne em ele. Pendurei fora com uma menina levemente ímpar hoje, que abusou sua nova boneca. Era muito, diremos, raro?! Recebo três recheios na segunda-feira de manhã! Oh, rapaz! Meu irmão e eu ambos têm este temor horrendo de receber tiros, então o pensamento de receber um tiro na minha boca, é tipo de horrorizar! Os meus dentes machucam. Ei, olhe! Tenho três mensagens de correio de e! Tenho que ir agora! Tchau!

Hee hee hee!!! :D:D:D
