Finding the Balance

OK—in the mostly-fabulous world of Maeve Kaplan-Taylor, there are a bazillion things to do: feed my Guinea pigs, named Sabrina and Mark this week (Sabrina Bryan and Mark Ballas—my favorite couple on Dancing with the Stars!), go to hip hop class, be on time for Hebrew School, meet with my math tutor, AND practice my singing and acting in between. Oh yeah, and homework, too.

On top of everything else, my best friends—the BSG—have been bugging me to hang out with them almost every afternoon. I mean, I love my girls, but I have all these things to do! Sometimes, it’s hard to find a good balance between BFF time and lessons time, you know?

Do you ever feel like you’re pulling a balancing act trying to squeeze in time with your friends and time to get all your other stuff done? I TOTALLY feel that way. I hate letting my friends down, but I have so much to do!

*Talk more about finding the balance and other personal probs in our Sleepover Tower Club!*



you tell us ...
How do you stay close with your friends when you've got tons of stuff to do?

XOXO,

I'm not too busy now that soccer season's over, but my BFF is, and I hardly see her anymore! She's a year younger than me, so the only place we saw each other was on the bus, but she now has Girl Scouts on Monday, Fitness Practice on Friday, and gets tutored after school the other days. She doesn't have e-mail or a working phone, so we basically only see each other in the hallway @ school. smilies/sad.gif

Dear Garu Girl...
Kudos to you for getting a part in the play! I was the lead in the school production of Annie last year and I was soooo nervous! At first you feel like there's this huge knot in your stomach but by the middle or the end you get used to it and it's a blast! Once the songs over believe me, you are going to want to do it again!

Hope this helps,

I think kids/teens are pushed to much like in school. We don't need to learn all this history it's no use to us. We probably don't need science ether, becuase if we don't plan on being smarter people we don't need to learn that. Plus then you got to keep up with friends.

I totally feel your pain. I have a lot of after-school stuff, too, so it is hard to add quality BFF time to the mix. Think about whether you really LOVE doing all the things you do, and talk to your parents about scheduling a little more "downtime."

Dear Maeve I could not find the right place to ask so I hope it is ok if I ask here. My school has a littel drama club for are activitey peroid and wo-ho I'm in it and I have a good part. But the thing is I have stage fright. I mean I can sing infront of the drama club I have to, but I'm afraid to sing infront of my school and my crush Cal. And to make it worse it is an old song called Conjucntion Jucntion from school house rock. I'm getting to not hate it as much but do you have any tips aside, from amgening the crownd in there under ware please. i just can't look people in the eye when I sing. You are good at this stuff please help. ~Garu Girl~ You are the best.

Oh no! Stage fright can be difficult to get over, but the only way to do it is to practice singing in front of people. Sing in front of your family, friends, neighbors... whoever will listen! And, if it's still too much for you, try looking at something non-human, like a chair or the back of the theater, when you sing. Don't let it bring you down, though. You can get over stage fright!

This happens to me all the time. . . it totally stinks! I take ballet classes mondays (tuesdays sometimes) and thursdays. I'm in 6th grade, and the homework will NEVER stop piling up! My best friends...with "crimes" going on, and us not living close to eachother- our parents don't always want to drive us, and aren't sure we're ready to walk that far! One of my friends and I are the only ones who get to see eachother after school and stuff- because we live 4 doors down from each other. Another one and I get together on Fridays sometimes, and a third one and I try to on the breaks. I NEVER get to hang with her, though- besides b-day parties. We never get to be ALTOGETHER at once. There's always someone too busy to hang!
What should I do? I NEED advice. . . thanks Maeve! Vive le. . . . OLD MOVIES!

Well, I feel like the best solution is for all of you to get driver's licenses. lol! Just kidding. You're right, it does sound hard to stay in touch, but if you can't see each other, try writing emails or talking on IM :-)

I always call my friends, e-mail,or im. but one of my friends calls a little to much. like if she calls and i don't get the phone in time, she calls again. When i am on the phone with her and i have to go she doesn't let me leave. I just started hanging out with her, and she sits at our lunch table but when i start talking to my other friends she taps me on the shoulder and goes how come you aren't talking to me. What should i do?? HELP :

Wow, she's being a little too friendly, huh? Friends need space, so if you don't feel like chatting, either tell her it's not a good time for you to talk on the phone right now, or ask your mom (or whoever picks up the phone) to say that you're busy and that you'll see her in school tomorrow. At lunch, when she taps you on the shoulder say something like, "What? I'm trying to talk to everybody!" and then change the subject to something that you can ALL talk about. Good luck!

Some people need more time than others to get over a breakup. I'm sure she'll get over it at some point, but in the meantime, just be a non-judgmental shoulder for her to cry on!

Maeve what's dyslexia? PLEASE REPLY!!!

Hi! Dyslexia is a learning disability that doctors think people are born with. Dyslexia means that I don't see words on a page like other people do. They get jumbled up a bit somewhere between my eyes and my brain. It means I have to work a little harder to read and spell, but I've learned to deal with it and to not let it hold me back at ALL!

Dancing is basically my life, so that pretty much takes up all my time, (except sat. nd sun. sometimes) ne way, this is HARD WORK!!!!!
I sometimes dont get a lot of sleep either. What should I do when I get stressed out, Maeve?
-busy, busy, busy

My mom always tells me that when I get stressed out, it's okay to take a break from some of my after-school activities. Even though they're important to me, if I'm getting super stressed, it's ME who comes first. Well, me and school. Don't be afraid to say NO sometimes :-)

I usually email my friends! It's a lot of fun! And if I have time I will write them letters. My friends and I love getting letters from each other! Or I talk to my friends at the stuff I'm doing. Like friends on my soccer team or something.

E-mail is great, too! The BSG all get together in chat rooms sometimes.

XOXO,
