(1.) Never get upset with your looks.
We think you look great. Please be happy with the person you are and the body you have. Eat well, take exercise and be healthy. Some girls become upset because they try to lose weight or get the perfect shape. You look fine.
(2.) Never spend money more than your income (收入).
Never spend money more than your income and save a little every month. Don’t borrow others’ money if possible.
(3.) Never look down on yourself.
You are great of achieving great things so believe in yourself. When things go badly, never stop believing. Some girls get upset and lose confidence (自信), and then all kinds of problems can follow.

We are very proud of what you have succeeded so far. You should be proud too. Keep doing well. Keep trying your hardest at everything you do.

Dear Amy I think I hurt my friend Sandy. Yesterday I told my friend Lucy a secret of Sandy. And then Sandy heard about this. She was very angry. I feel really guilty (内疚的). What should I do, please? Yours Elizabeth |
Dear Elizabeth We all make mistakes. You should remember that most people can be in the same trouble as you are. Here is some advice for you: Make a sincere apology (道歉). It takes courage to say what you have done is wrong. The important thing about an apology is sincerity (诚意). When you apologize, you should do it sincerely because you really feel sorry. Let the person know you’re not going to let it happen again. Apologizing in person is the best. If you can’t say sorry to your friend face to face, you can write a note. You should let your friend know what you are thinking, even if your friend doesn’t accept it. For some people, it takes time to forgive someone else. Forgive yourself. We can learn from mistakes. Don’t think it over again and again after you apologize. Being too sorry all the time can’t help you. Just make things right and move forward. Yours Amy |
