Becoming Confident

Some people are born shy, very shy. But others are born fearless and full of confidence. Good friends support you when you need it, and that can always make you more confident. But sometimes if there is no friend around to help. When those hard and lonely times come, tell your self all of these things:

• Your an amazing person! Don't let an audience or a bully make you think otherwise!
• You can do anything if you try your hardest!
• Even if you don't win or get a standing ovation, the best thing is that you tried your hardest and that's the most you can ask for!
• You have family and friends who, even if they aren't here right now, support you with all their heart!

So shut out that voice who is telling you you can't do or it you'll make a fool of yourself and refresh your brain with positive thoughts that will make you and your peers happy and confident! Winning or losing isn't your game, your confidence and happiness is!

Fightin' Friends:(

What do you do when you get into a fight with your BFF? Well today I am going to give you some tips on how to handle a fight, how to avoid a fight, and how to end a fight!

• Don't give your friend the silent treatment- Without communication, how will you ever solve the problem?
• LISTEN! This is probably the most important. Don't say what you want to say and ignore your friend because maybe you are wrong.
• Try to compromise- If you want to go to the park but your friend would rather go to a movie, suggest if you could maybe go to a movie in the park!
• Don't ask other people to take sides in the argument. It's best just to keep it between the one you are fighting with

And guys, remember BFF's can't stay angry forever, right? When you make up, you'll think that the fight you had was the silliest thing ever! But sometimes, even the silliest thing can be made into a really big deal if you don't handle it right!
Have a good day!:):)

Get your Craft ON!

Summer always seems so fun once school is over, but after a while, you get BORED! You don't know what to do, and you end up wasting your summer. Well, today, I am going to give you idea's for making crafts!!! I love to make different things and try new idea's. Here some things that you guys should try out:

• Jewelry making(earrings, bracelets, etc.)




• Sewing(start out by making a pillow, and soon you'll find yourself making a little doll!)




• Knitting(Start from the beginning, and make your way to the top!)




• Felting(This is a very interesting craft my sister finds very fun!)




• Crocheting(Also great for giving as gifts)




• Painting(Let your heart onto the paper)




• Writing a book for little siblings to enjoy!(Its great to think of others)

The possibilities go on forever, but these are things that I love to do! And after you have made so much stuff, what do you do with it? give them as gifts, or open a business! Get creative, and make your summer fun! Just take my advice, and don't sit inside playing on the computer, get into art and make it fun!

Just Ask KATE!

KATE CHALENGE: Make one of the above crafts, and if you can, post the picture of it on your blog, or give it to me. It would be really great if I could get the picture if possible:)

Enemies are People Too

Is there someone that when you see them, you just get SO ANNOYED? Are they mean or rude to you? Well, if this is true for you, for one momment consider their feelings. Even the people you dislike have feelings. I understand if they bully you, or act rude and mean, because there are people I dislike as well. But usually people are like that because they don't have any friends, or nobody is nice to them. My advice to people who have someone picking on them, or someone who just plain bothers you, is take a deep breath, go to go up to them, and nicely say hi. Ask them about their day, or compliment them. You may realize you were totally wrong about them, and they have many things in common with you. So don't judge someone to quickly, even if they did hurt your feelings, the same thing could have happened to them.

Show some love!

KATE CHALLENGE: Take my advice, and get to know someone you dislike a little bit more. Some people will never change sadly, but tell me how it goes, and you will have another Kate Challenge finished!
