  • What is the Gold and Silver ball in NY?

    I live on the West Coast, and I know that it's an exclusive teenage socialite dance in New York, but does anyone have any other details, or know how I could get an invitation. I am in the social group, but as an outsider, not from NY or at a prep boarding school, I don't know how to make myself known. I would like to go.

  • I want to attend Georgetown University and I am wondering?

    I am a freshman in highschool, at a small private all girls school. I take all honors classes possible, and I am getting A and A- in all but Honors Biology...which I will probably get a C+ in, but i currently have a B-. I play volleyball, I am a camp counselor at the Zoo for 4 weeks each summer, I play french horn, and i know how to play piano. I am in jazz band and I should graduate high school with about 8 AP classes.

    I may transfer to a big coed high school with 350 students in a grade, and I am wondering if this will affect my college applications.

    I know it is only freshman year, but I truly wish to go to Georgetown, my dad went there. I know people on the Board, if that helps too?

    So, after hearing a little about me, what would you change to help me get into Georgetown? I know it is still 3 years away.

  • I am a high school freshman, and i want to transfer?

    I am currently a Freshman in high school, at an independent all girls school with under 50 girls in each class. I went there for kindergarten-eighth grade as well. I loved the elementary school, and when applying to high schools felt i wasn't ready to leave it, so i fought against my parents so that I could stay at the school.

    The school they wanted me to go to is a huge catholic high school, with about 350 students per grade. It is coed, and completely opposite from the school i attend. It is where my dad went and now sits on the board.

    I started freshman year in August, and so far...it has sucked. I love my friends from the elementary school, but all the new girls are annoying, and I don't want to talk to them. The school is too easy, and i never study or do homework...but i have straight As. And i feel like overall school is dull and boring. I don't look forward to going to school anymore. Last year i would be excited to see friends, and teachers.

    So my problem is:

    I really don't like my school anymore, and I truly want to transfer out, but i feel like i fought too hard to earn it. My parents really didn't want me to go to this school anymore, and I think it was humiliating that my dad was on the board of the other school but i didn't go there. I don't want to seem like i was just stubborn last year or anything, so i don't really want to tell my parents that i want to transfer. I am tired of my school, and everyone at the other school loves it. I am just scared of my parents, because it is what they wanted all along.

    What is your opinion and how should i tell my parents? The school allows transfers to apply in January.

    I am also wondering if this will affect me when i apply to college. I don't know how it would, but i just want to be positive.

  • What do you think of Evangeline and Philippine?

    These are 2 names I have always loved, and I am definitely using them, as first or middle names for future children. I don't think they are too matchy especially with different nicknames, so what do you think?

    I would call Evangeline (E-van-juh-leen) Annie, or Lena

    I would call Philippine (rhymes with Evangeline) Pippa

    What nicknames do you suggest, and overall thoughts?

    And, I am aware Philippine is a country, but it is a French name, and I know people with this name, so please do not comment on that factor.

  • Anyone want to give feedback on 5 names?

    Florence Elodie

    Evangeline ___________

    Victoria Isobel

    Philippine Noelle

    Boy:

    William

    Matthew

    Parker

    Collin

    Reid

    James

    These are the names I want to use for my 4 girls, and one boy (obviously I dont have a complete combination for the boy). I need help with middle names and would like just overall feedback, to see if they are too matchy. I would love to know what you think of the girl names, and to find a middle name for Evangeline (not Rose), and to know if Philippine and Evangeline are okay together. Any middle name help, whether you rearrange it or suggest completely new ones is also appreciated.

    ***Please make a boy combination using 2 of the boy names provided.

    ****Are theses nicknames okay, or too far from the originals? Flora, Annie, Tori and Pippa? What nicknames would you use for them?

    Thank you so much.

  • Teenage friend committed suicide, and now i dont know how to cope?

    Hi everyone,

    I am a freshman and last Thursday night, something happened, that really affected me.

    My friend, sophomore, committed suicide. I met her in middle school, and we carpooled twice a week for the whole year to sports practice. She also went to the same temple as me. She went to a high school with 350 kids per grade, and was one of the most popular. She loved her life. Today was her funeral, and almost 2000 people showed up in her honor. She was going through a lot lately, and was seeing a therapist, but no one ever expected this to happen. It was an extreme shock, and I am having issues coming to terms with it. I am just upset, because i saw her every weekend for 3 hours, and it is hard now to never see her, even though we didnt always talk. I have cried, and moped. I just feel like it is everywhere, because so many people knew her. Im ready to move on, just unsure how. I talked to my parents, friends, and my school is really supportive.

    She could have had anything she wanted. There were no financial problems, or social problems. Her family loved her, and has been torn apart, literally, by this. Her mom could barely come today.

    How have you ever dealt with something like this?

    <3 missing you forever. always in my heart. 1995-2011 .California. Ill never forget your big smile and laugh. I love you babydoll <3

  • Alcohol poisoning in a 15 year old girl?

    Okay.. so basically. I was at a school dance. I am a freshmen. My friend decided to do something completely stupid, and got drunk on the school bus to the dance. She had a wine bottle size bottle full of vodka. She drank about half of it. The sophomores tried to help her, and the dean found out, and paramedics were called. She had to go to the hospital and get her stomach pumped, and when we called it was unknown whether she would be ok? so i was wondering the likelyhood of someone dying like this?

  • Please help me with 8th grade graduation dress situation!?

    Hi,

    I am graduating from 8th grade June 9th, and i am desperate for a graduation dress!!!

    At my school, girls go COMPLETELY over the top. (Betsey Johnson, Bloomingdales, Barneys, any place with dresses over 200 dollars....) I know that makes my school look really stuck up.

    My budget though, is 100 dollars. So I need help finding a dress. I have no preference where is is from, as long as it is in the budget.

    I would like a floral/pink/ strapless, above the knee dress, but again, I am truly open to anything.

    If you can give me reliable websites, or specific dresses, either would be appreciated.

    Thank you SO much!

    4. Name one more girl and boy that would fit in this set.
