But seriously.


So, since tbh that was so hard to read,
we are doing ADVICE MAILLLLL!

So, 1st all the way from Oklahoma, we have:
Kathy Wynway 
Who says:

"Grace, I hope that you can help me. At school, a TON of people just
got braces. Even my little sister has some. Can you help me with what to
do? Should I beg my mom for braces or what? I'm really confused."
Kathy Wynway, Age 11 (Tulsa, Oklahoma)

Dear Kathy,
I completely understand the feeling of wanting
to have braces. I am surrounded by about three or four
people with braces. Although that may not seem
like many to what your school has, even the littlest things might make
you want to fit in. When your little sister has braces, it for sure must be even more
difficult. The first thing I want to tell you, even though I am sure a lot
of people have is that you are beautiful just the way you are (like Bruno Mars says)
You should always be confident in how you look like, and that is coming
from someone who isn't all that goregeous and is pretty shy. You should
think about what things you have that not everyone has in them or on them.
You might have adorable freckles, wear glasses that have tweety-bird on the sides or
you can do a running roundoff. Write down all the things you have that many other people
don't. Don't brag about what you can do, but be proud of it. Think about all the candy
you can eat and not everyone else with braces can. If you do end up getting braces,
it won't be the end of the world and you will enjoy it just as much as
someone without braces would.

Enjoy school!
Grace

"I need a suggestion from you on how to wake up quicker.
I am always late to school and I don't know how to make
myself quicker. Can you help?"

Lilianna Jefferson, Age 13 (Garden City, Kansas)

Dear Lilianna,
I am someone who usually struggle to get up,
but I have very recently been able to get up quicker.
Here are some tips.
1. Make sure any siblings or family members are up so they aren't the reason you are late, just don't blow a siren in their ears or pour water on them because they will definitely not be happy when they do wake up.

2. Set your alarm the night before for at least an hour and a half or later depending on when your school starts and how far you have to go to get to school, get up and don't hit snooze no matter how much you want to. If you need to, start a reward system. Whether that be get ice-cream or a cookie at lunch or ask your mom if you can stay up twenty minutes later that night than usual, try to keep on rewarding yourself until it becomes almost consistent.

3. Set out your clothes the night before so you don't have to get them in the morning. If you wear that, set it out in a safe place also.

4. Check the tires for flats if possible and make sure you have the keys to the car the night before.

5. Don't stay up too late the night before.

6. Take a shower the night before if possible.

Thanks Guys Bye,

Grace

Update

I really do apologize and hope you can understand just starting 6th grade has equaled a large "sum" of homework and many busy clubs. I am happy to announce that I made it into choir and my announcements try outs are next week on Thursday. Thanks so much for being so much fun to write things for and you guys are one of my biggest priorities!

Advice For These Awesome Possum Girls

Here are some questions that some readers asked about me and about how to solve. Here are some of the questions they sent. 

Hey Grace! I enjoy reading your blog and would like to ask you a question about yourself. Do you like shrimp or any type of seafood? Hope you can read this,

Jacklyn, 12 years old from El Paso, Texas

Hey Jacklyn! Thanks for liking my blog! I do not really like seafood and am a pretty picky eater. Do fish sticks count? Haha. Thanks for asking the question and I really hope I can hear from you again! 

Thanks for asking, 

Grace 

Here is another question:

Your blog is nice to read and I like the fashion advice. I would like to know what your favorite color and pattern is (like cheetah or zebra or scales) and what the best way to stay out of gossip is. 

Anonymous in the USA 

Nice to know you like my blog and the fashion advice! My favorite color is pink and I like zebra print! The best way to stay out of gossip is just stay away from the people that create it, not take sides, spread gossip yourself or believe anything that sounds unrealistic.

Thanks for asking,

Grace

Fashion Don'ts

Fashion

Dont's!

Though you may cling to these fashions, maybe loosen up a bit and try to think about similar, but more stylish things! Here you go!

Old Fashioned Romper

Now, you may be thinking, but...I like or rompers. And yes, they are very, very comfortable for just chilling in, but you may see a pattern like this and think "This looks a bit.. like something my grandmother would wear or my very mature mom." But to be honest, at the end of the day, patterns like this on comfy rompers don't really work out the best. I recommend wearing more romper's like this:

Pretty, Modern Rompers

Wearing denim rompers or even cute overalls over clothes can really change the age group of what type of romper you are looking for. See the difference?


Bootcut Jeans
Bootcut Jeans. Well, they are called Bootcut for a reason. Be sure you don't wear tennis shoes with bootcut jeans, especially to P.E. or they might look a little.... un-bootcut.

The Fashion Statements You Can Start

Fashion

To expand my blogspot a bit more, I decided to show you some of the interesting parts of do's for fashion and for me personally. Here you go!

Shoe Dazzle Shoes

These awesome purple shoes are gorgeous even just to look at! The Royal purple color is a perfect color for the upcoming fall,  and the wedges... well, just make you taller!  Even though these shoes may not be your size, try and find some in this color or style at Kohl's, Target, Payless Shoes, or anywhere else you can find this trend!

Yellow Polka-Dot Skirt

This AMAZING skirt is so chic and colorful, it looks almost like it is for spring! You can wear this skirt or any other bright skirt in fall just to stand out from the crowd or make yourself more noticeable to almost anyone! Try finding a bright skirt with polka dots and you can show the world how beautiful you can be!

Mickey Mouse Sweatshirt

When you think of Mickey Mouse you probably think, ummm... I am way toooo old for that! But don't automatically think that because Mickey Mouse has made a comeback in Tweens and teens and... even adults everywhere! Don't be afraid to go to school with a childhood friend on your shirt!
It's fashionable and you could even start a new trend at your school! Check for shirts/sweatshirts to wear like these for the cold fall days and you'll be just fine! :)

I hate when people cyber bully you. Earlier today I said something to comment on youtube and sadly, someone said something mean. For all those people out there reading this that do get cyber bullied, I am truly sorry. The first thing you should do is tell your parents like I did. Don't hide what happened or this might make everything worse. If it still continues and your parents don't do anything about it, inform other adults or your friends so that you can talk to them instead of mean people on the internet. Email them, skype or text them on your phone, and try to ignore all the mean things that some people say. I know it might hurt your feelings, because that happens to everyone. Try not to fight back no matter what they say. Be sure to tell an adult immediately and try to stay off of whatever website people are bullying you on or just don't comment on things. These are the best things to do! I hope you have a good rest of the week and are looking forward to the first day of school! Bye guys and talk to you later!!! :)

Funny Jokes: August 20th Special

Hey guys, how are you? If you would like, I am thinking about doing a riddle/joke or two. Okay. Here they are:

1. There once was a church with a boy. He rang the bell at the top of the church, but one day, he found a better job that paid more and left the church. The pastor went all around the neighborhood looking for people he could hire for the job, but no one really seemed right. So one day, he was sitting in his bedroom reading the bible when the doorbell rang. He got up and answered the door to see a man with no arms. The man said "I am here applying for the job." "What... job?" The pastor asked surprised. "Well, the one where you ring the church bell." replied the armless man. "But how will you do that?" The pastor questioned. "Come watch and you will see." So the pastor and the man walked to the very top of the church and the man took his head and bang it against the bell. It made a sharp ringing sound and the man didn't look like his head hurt at all. "Well, I guess if you can do that without getting hurt than there is no problem, is there?" The man shook his head. "Nope!" He joyfully answered, slightly rubbing the side of his head. "Okay, then, it is settled. My assistant will tend to your paycheck then!" The pastor ran inside, and later on heard the sound of the bell. He did again the next day, and the next every day twice a day. Soon, the pastor forgot who was actually ringing the bell. He just remembered that the bell was being rung. A couple days later at noon, the man with no arms once again got to the top of the tower of the church to get ready to ring the bell. The wind was blowing a lot that day, and his hair was all in his face. He tried to see, but couldn't and when his head jerked forward, it was to the wrong direction and he fell headfirst on the ground. All the townspeople gathered together to see the hurt man, who had fell 3 stories down and was surely dead. The townspeople asked the pastor who the man was and the pastor said "That face rings a bell."

2. Riddle- There is a tall mountain that no one can get to except by underground train. When you get to the mountain, all the houses look alike, even the addresses. How do you tell which house is which?
Answer: By which road it is on.

3. Riddle: There was once a kid and his great-grandfather fought in World War 1. He was telling his great-grandson stories of the war. He said he was a great fighter and he had a sword that he got right after the war that was from Paris that said "Award Of World War 1"
How is this not possible?
Answer: World War 2 hadn't came yet!

4. Riddle: There is a bear. He walks into McDonalds and says "Hummmmm.... I'll have.... fries."
The cashier says "Why the big paws?" And the bear says "I was born with 'em."

Get it?
Answer: Why the big paws? Why the big pause? :)


 

Update: June 7th, 2014

I am having a great summer so far, how about you guys? I really hope I can get at least someone to read one of my posts! I absolutely LOVE the summer and I have decided to blog about it. I have never blogged before so please don't hate on me if my blog is very different or weird compared to other blogs, but I really hope that this one will be very interesting. So far this summer, I have gone swimming twice, went to one of my friends birthdays and am looking forward to my 11th birthday party later this week. I am so excited to share more! Until then, see everyone later!
