observanteenMember
I trained myself not to eat after 7. I’m simply not hungry at night anymore! Of course I cheat sometimes, but rarely. I also excercise at night and that makes me feel full!
observanteenMemberHey, neek! T’is a glorious day outside (although it’s dark already) and school wasn’t THAT bad (just REAL dumb, y’know?). I gotta get a positive attitude! Boy, I’m in a GRAND ABSOLUTELY TERIFFIC mood!!!! UGH.Just remembered. Gotta go study. Anything positive ’bout THAT???:) Enjoy the rest!!
observanteenMemberMy Parsha teacher really delivered a fantastic shiur related to this. She said that Moshe Rabbeinu had a real difficult childhood (was adopted, wasn’t allowed to leave the palace, ran away to Midya etc.etc), and look who he turned out to be! He had real difficult middos, and look what a great tzaddik and navi he was! He was in fact the greatest navi of all! You have a hundred thousand reasons to be depressed, go OTD etc. There are a million ppl you can blame for what you’re doing. But where does it get you? If there’s a banana peel on the floor, and you slipped, you won’t sit there crying and blaming the banana peel. Get up, and throw the banan peel in the trash! Nobody said the banana peel doesn’t exist, or that it didn’t cause you to slip. But now what? Sit there and cry??
Not blaming blahbla of course, she’s getting help already. It just that it got me thinkin’, y’know. I sometimes blame my bad mood on my classmate, sibling etc. We gotta learn to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and forgive and forget.

It doesn’t say in the shulchan oruch that ur not allowed to wear a spiky shaitel, or a leather jacket, you simply used ur binah. I’m sooo amazed! I really think your son is such a great talmid chacham b/c of ur being tznua.
red head: Wow, that really touched me. A man crying to you? What an eye opener! And of course I give you TONS of credit for improving your way of getting dressed.
I feel humbled by those of you who brought such big karbonos for Hashem. May you have lots of brachos in this zechus!
observanteenMemberUgh. Was in a horrid mood today. School was terribly boring. Agggrrr. No eating 4 me cuz I’m on a DIET,silly. GROSS!!!!
observanteenMemberfabie: I know Tom, cuz we have his book “Basic Economics”, and it’s great! He breaks down such a complicated subject in bits and pieces for the reg. ppl to understand. Also, being that I’m a Republican, I think he would be great, cuz he’s brilliant and BLACK for goodness’ sake….:)
(Oh, and PLEASE don’t remind me of the incident with Rand Paul! I’m soooooo embarrassed!:/)
observanteenMemberallgr8: No, I’m not eclipse. Just bored stiff. Sick 4 two days already. B”H feeling a bit better. I think I’ll go to school tomorrow.
observanteenMemberWe probably send 80 altogether. We make 40 ourselves and recycle approx. 40.
observanteenMemberhuh? Who dates not 4 the purpose of marriage?
observanteenMemberI think it’s ok 2 date when ur young. Depends whether you’re ready – not on ur age.
observanteenMemberblahbla: Just wondering. How’s it going? Any change? We haven’t heard from you in all this time. Hope life’s treating you better….keep us posted!
observanteenMemberGood!! Happy 4 u!!!!!!!
observanteenMemberAlways here: Oh my. That’s sooo sad! Sigh, why all the tzarus?
observanteenMemberneek! You must be in a great mood! You keep on posting! And putting exclamation points all over!!!!
observanteenMemberLol, snapple, love black tights too… I LOOOOOOVE the snow!! Everything about it! The sledding, bundling up, snowball fights…the works!
observanteenMemberyogibooboo: I don’t think you should harbor bad feelings on neighbors of the past. It’s really a pity to end your “relationship” like that (even if they were the rude ones). They will end up being the ones to suffer from their behavior (maybe their future neighbors won’t be too nice to them in response to their behavior). Why not “move on” with life? Let go of the anger.
observanteenMemberYou can give Mishloach Manos throughout the year – there’s no issur! The question is whether you’re yoitze with the mitzva of umishloach manos is lereau.
observanteenMemberI don’t really have any relationship with her, I just know her, and it really hurts me. It’s possible she’s a CR member. If she is, I hope she’ll get influenced by the good posts. May Hashem help her!
observanteenMemberi am here: LOL! How do you KNOW???
observanteenMemberIf you’re reading it with Hebrew letters, it has a vav and a cholem, which makes it Toyrah. If you read it with English letters it’s Torah. I pronounce it Toyrah.
observanteenMemberWhen I’m in an Ugh mood, I listen to music or go out shopping(not shayach today for me- the weather’s wet and rainy).
February 28, 2011 9:27 pm at 9:27 pm in reply to: Derogatory labels and typecasting in Shidduchim #745780observanteenMemberShrek: True. I’ve a close relative who married a girl who REALLY wasn’t for him, and ppl KNEW what he was looking for. They ALL gave info that turned out to be totally untrue! She was JUST the opposite. In any case, we must ask a rav before giving info (especially if you know s/he has issues).
observanteenMemberMBD,Yisroel Werdyger, Shloime Gertner, Boruch Levine, Shloime Taussig, Yeedle Werdyger….Oooops! Sorry, I know you’re supposed to choose one but I love ’em all!!
observanteenMemberBoy, stickynote, you sure are hard to please! How abt playing a game? I know it’s terribly old fashioned but you don’t seem to be willing to do the other stuff…
observanteenMemberMischief: life aint that bad. First of all you learn from your mistakes. Second, call it a challenge. How would you like doing a sudoku that’s geared for 5 yr olds? It’s no fun, cuz it’s no challenge. Nisyonos matures you and helps you deal with life. Enjoy the exciting journey!
observanteenMemberI hate it when ppl mutcha for others for money. It’s very rude! Maybe the noisen doesn’t even have the money to give!
observanteenMemberI am an observant teen. Any help?
observanteenMemberGummy: living on a tighter budget. Not spending so much.
observanteenMemberYossi: Mazel Tov upon your neices and nephew’s weddings! Enjoy growing up! It’s no fun being a kid for too long.
observanteenMemberI don’t think it’s bad raising kids in Israel. Their hashkafos are on a much higher level, and the histapkus is also amazing.
BTW why do you think buying a Juicy sweatshirt is “retarded”? (I’d call it a fad or something like that)
observanteenMemberUmmm…… popa, are you already of age?
observanteenMemberI thought so too. I also think Popa is getting a teeeeny bit Gold.
observanteenMemberYeah, so right, i said so. There’s no vacation for us teens:(
observanteenMemberWell then, when you come home from BJJJJJJJJJJ, how abt marrying yourself?
observanteenMemberOomis: oh, boy. Refuah Shelaima.
observanteenMemberHa! Pops, you thought ur all settled cuz ur going to BJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ, huh?
observanteenMemberI agree with Y.W. Editor. Wolf, don’t waste your time arguing over someone’s imagination.
observanteenMemberI sure do! But, really your happiness depends on YOUR outlook in life. You gotta be a positive person to enjoy life with its ups and downs.
observanteenMemberBe Happy: So true! I did the same. Blahblah, how abt you write a letter with the opening sentence “Dear Hashem” and then write whatever you want to tell Him. He understands you best!
observanteenMemberShticky: you’re your best friend…
Oh, and I find your question and answer quite interesting!
observanteenMemberI certainly wouldn’t like a boy only because of his looks. There’s middos, Yiras Shomayim, and of course, you gotta have the same goals in life.
observanteenMemberOh, I’m happy now that I’m 18!
February 27, 2011 11:41 pm at 11:41 pm in reply to: Who do you perceive as the happiest person you know? #744995observanteenMemberCanine: Happy ppl can be sad too at times. La Kol Zeman Veais. There’s a time to mourn and be sad too. I think that if you have a positive outlook in life, you’re a happy person.
observanteenMemberHow abt trying out some new and exciting recipes?
Maybe you can start cleaning the house for Pesach. It’s just around the corner!
observanteenMemberFirst and foremost: Welcome to the CR!! Hope you’ll have a nice time here!
I suffered from Anxiety. I bought the Attacking Anxiety and Depression Program by Lucinda Basset (wrote abt this on other threads). It was great. It really helped me overcome my anxiety. They also have therapists who work with you on the phone. I didn’t need it B”H, but maybe you do.
Also, the first thing you should ever do when in a dilemma ask Daas Torah for advice.
Second, therapy doesn’t always help right away. It might take some time till you see results.
Thirdly, maybe the therapist you’re currently going to isn’t the right one for you.
And most of all:KEEP STRONG!
Hatzlacha Rabba!!!!
observanteenMembermischief: It’s possible that ur havin’ your hard time now and by the time ur 17 you’ll be over it. Good luck!
February 27, 2011 10:42 pm at 10:42 pm in reply to: questions on losing weight/ being healthy #746061observanteenMemberShuli: yeah, think so too.
Proud Jew: You mean the one that you eat tons of protein? I don’t really think it’s that healthy, but yes, I know some ppl who really lost some weight by going on this diet.
observanteenMemberOOOH. GOOD LUCK!!!! I love to learn, but don’t exactly love to study for tests!!!!! (Hope ur a good girl so Mommy can shep nachas at PTA.)
observanteenMemberi said so: Right! (The “chasuv boy” will one day marry a girl, won’t he?)
observanteenMemberOMG. I guess I’m reaaaally ignorant!
