So lately I've been feeling EXTREMELY guilty and worried about something I did when I was 13-14 years old. (I'm 15 now). I made up this huge lie about having a really cool cousin to two of my really good friends. I really have no idea why I did it, I was/maybe I still am, immature and being stupid. I made up a facebook account and to make it worse I even made up a whole bunch of 'friends' for her account to make it look more 'realistic'. The thing is, it honestly took me a long time to realize what I was doing was so completely wrong. And now that I've been living with the guilt for about a year or so, I just want to tell my friends the truth because I know that they never-heck no one ever deserves to be lied to by someone they trust. I deactivated the fake accounts, to try to run from it all but I know that I can't do that. I know I have to tell them the truth, I'm just so afraid to because I don't want to lose them. My two best friends are honestly like my own sisters. I tell them pretty much everything and I feel so blessed to actually be able to say that I have true friends. I just want to get this out and tell them, I want to move on with my life and not have to worry everyday. How do you think I should tell them? All the lies pretty much started on Facebook and so I feel like they should end there as well, yet I feel that telling them in person would show that I truly care? I don't know what to do! Please, help me!

Hi! I got the new iPod touch for Christmas and just started setting everything up today. Everything is working fine, EXCEPT for my music. I downloaded 4 songs on iTunes, and it synced to my iPod, but when I try to play it, it won't play! I reseted it, and now when I go to my music, the songs are greyed out? I don't know what to do... Any help would be much appreciated! :)

I keep on seeing these hateful posts about Christians hating Atheists and Atheists hating Christians. I am a Christian myself, and I can't believe that so many of those posts are from my fellow Christians. Using the Bible against people as if that is going to prove anything. Can't we see that is only causing Atheists to hate us more? Why must we hate? We have duties to be good people and to help each other no matter our race, religion, culture, age, etc.

If you are a Christian, start acting like it and stop acting close-minded and viscous. We are not meant to be like that.

And to all the Atheists, I apologize on behalf of all the hateful Christians. I promise that there are many Christians that respect you.

My school year started on Tuesday of this week, and in my first semester I was given subjects that I don't have problems with. And then, on my schedule it showed me all my 2nd semester courses. I saw that I was given Math and Science in the second semester, so right away I wanted to switch either subject into the first so that I wouldn't have to brave them both at the same time. SO, I switched out of my superfit class for math and today I was finally accepted into the class. The only problem now is.... I FREAK OUT BEFORE (and even after) EVERY test, AND before a quiz. I have had troubles with math for as long as I can remember but my anxiety has really gotten worse since I have started high-school. In grade 8 I got a 54% and in grade 9 I got a 58%. I JUST got by, but now that I'm in the 10th grade I'm starting to really feel TERRIFIED. I know that universities start checking for grade 10 marks and all, and I'm not worried about any of my other classes, but I mean... this ONE class (science is also quite scary to think about, but math outshines it by quite a bit) causes me SO much fear and worry ALL the time. I really don't know what I should do to improve my skills, I'm just so frustrated. Could anyone give me any tips on improving both in grades and in confidence? Thank you so much in advance. :)
