1. Don't "classify" yourself as belonging to any group. (Emo, goth, nerd, etc.) Think of yourself as "you" only and that is how to define "who" or "what" you are.
2. Your friends are probably stupid. Challenge what they claim by doing the research yourself.
3. Study philosophy, too many young women ruin their brains by reading profit-driven magazines and by focusing their attention on what's "popular."
4. When you decide what foods to eat, consider the *quality* over quantity aspect. That means instead of calorie-counting, you should be looking at what foods are "healthier" from a relative standpoint.

Never mind spellings as at your age one can get away with so many things.Yes, a teenager being on the verge of adulthood can be quite a trying period and needs a guiding hand during transition.It may be an elder friend,parents,teacher or grand parents or somebody like them.Another point is to understand the tendency to act upon an impulse and therefore the need to think at least twice about any important decision.Otherwise,a wonderful period of life and should be full of fun and more FUN.Wish you all the best.

No drugs, no sex- you're way too young to be messing with things like that (no one is old enough for drugs IMO). You need to know the basic 'facts of life' stuff- how women/girls get pregnant, what are sexually transmitted diseases- and their consequences. If your patents can't won't talk openly and honestly about these things, your local library is an excellent source (I highly recomend "Our Bodies, Our Selfs, in the states anyway.) The internet and chatlines are _not_ a good source. You need to know the kind of changes your body will go through as you mature- especially so you don't think you're weird. If your period hasn't started yet, or even if it has, you need to know how to take care of yourself in an hygenic fashion at that time, you need to know what a period is about, you need to know that if you have sex even if your periods are irregular you can still get pregnant...
There is, in other words, a lot to learn (and not necesarily all at once) about growing into a mature woman. What you really need the most is a grown woman you can talk to, one that you trust.And you don't need to know everything all at once either- it's a lot of information.So basically you need
1. Some adult to talk to, and as a role model, too.
2. If you can't find one, or in addition too, you need a good, matter-of-fact book (again-not the internet, or your girl friends at a slumber party).
3. You need to know that if your gut tells you something isn't right, then it isn't.
4. You need to learn to say "no", and mean it.
5. Above all, you need to learn to be proud to be a woman.
(Speaking of which, you are stll a child, like it or not. Give yourself a chance to keep doing the things that children do. Adulthood will come all too soon.)

You're still too young, but here goes:
ALWAYS be your true self : you'll find your true friends this way.
NEVER give in to pressures thrown at you by others.
Don't smoke or heavily drink alcohol: abuse of these substances can have you trapped for life with their addictions.
Crack is addictive the very second you take that first puff on the pipe--say NO to crack!! Same goes for heroin, crystal meth, cocaine and pot--again: say NO to those, too.
Soon, guys are gonna notice ( if they haven't yet already ) your looks are like sweet honey....and honey attracts bees.....don't get stung by bees (notice there's no mention of birds here). You will eventually--you can't avoid that--but try to have it happen around 19 to 20 years of age, OK? You can handle things better by then.
Oral sex won't get you pregnant--it's the sex that naturally comes after THAT--where you run into dangerous risks.
Golden Rule on Sex: "No Glove--No Love" (repeat it again for me here!!). And given this day and time: I'd have him wear TWO of 'em--just to be safe.
If you DO get pregnant--be brave, tell the parents...and choose adoption instead of abortion. Abortion carries with it a lifetime of guilt.
Don't get too deep into your girlfriends "pop-psychology" about boys. Your friends are just as in the dark about boys as you are--so what makes them experts about them???
If you must drink and drive....drink water.
Rap is crap w/out the letter "c". Alternative rock really does suck (it's not your imagination misleading you there). Real rock is classic 70's rock--groove into it and reap it's musical education.

No one will buy the cow if the milk is free. Stay pristine (untouched) for as long as you can because men are sick stupid animals. Stay in school and educate yourself thoroughly and completely.
knowledge is not power... the sharing and using of knowledge (and to what end) now that is power!
Learn how to heal others, breaking people is too easy... if you wish to be great, then fix those who are broken.

1. Always use protection.
2. Never be ashamed to go to the Clinic to get the Pill.
3. You can get pregnant even if you do it standing up.
4. Even if your boyfriend tells you he'll just put IT in a little way, it is possible to still get pregnant.
5. When your parents / friends say they hate you, they don't mean it.
6. Everyone hates their bodies / zits / changes. You do learn to live with them. Honestly.
7. Never do anything you are not comfortable with. Sounds ridiculous, but BELIEVE ME just say NO. My health and safety teacher was dumped by her boyfriend for not wanting to do it at a beach party but he still fancies her because he asks her out at any opportunity. She won.
8. Do not trust boys. Especially not when they say they love you. Do not believe ONE SINGLE WORD of it.
9. Learn to be independant later in life. I don't know what they means to you - anything from living alone to making a meal to abandoning your jerk of a boyfriend.
10. Friends before boyfriends. Hard to remember, I know, but when said boyfriend dumps you, we all go crying to our friends.
11. Life can be awful at times, but it is good as well. So try and focus on the positives.
12. It only takes once without protection to get pregnant.
13. You can:
a. get pregnant on your first time;
b. condoms can break.
14. DO NOT DO ANYTHING:
a. drugs
b. sleeping with someone
c. alcohol
IF YOU DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH IT. Go with your instincts, because when you fall out with your friends and your boyfriend breaks up with you, you can be secure in the knowledge that you did what was right.
I am thirteen, and that's just basically what I tell all of my friends (I am the equivelant of their "What To Do" and "What Not To Do" handbook!).
Just reeled off some things I kind of thought you might be too embarrassed to ask your parents. Good luck.

yeah
dont be in a hurry to grow up and get caught up in all the BS you hear and see in movies, television or music.
Do not let "friends" lead you astray because if they do they are either stupid or are not your reaf friends and in 20 years, all that really will matter to you is if youve made the right decisions or not.
Enjoy your life, take your time, stay in school, dont get mixed up with the wrong crowd and surround yourself with good people.
Be kind to the ones that really love you, because in the end, friend, thats all that really matters

"Save yourself for the one who is willing to do anything to be your everything." (from my 15-year-old niece's myspace page)
And from me: An old saying, To thine own self be true. When you love and respect yourself, others will too. Don't give a crap what others think of you; just be you, and let yourself shine. Live up to your own standards, and not other's.
Honey, you're already there. "Cause I don't know of many girls your age mature enough to ask such a question!
