Being a teen myself, I know when you just want our parents to stop saying theses things over and over. It could be such a simple thing but it irritates us the most.
1.“So, how was your day?”
- So Predictable
-insincere
-And you will get nothing out of us except FINE.
2.“Why didn’t you tell the kid to leave you alone????”
-Bullying or getting picked on isn’t just a simple thing to resolve and we know this will be the answer if we tell you
3.“What was she wearing?”
- Materialism is important to tweens/teens
-We think it effects our social status and self-esteem
4.“Why are you sooooo sensitive?”
-We’re changing…don’t tease and embarrass us
5. “Why did you do that?” (Fatal: “What were you thinking?”)
-We’re impulsive and crazy and still developing, we don’t always know why we do what we do.
6.“Why didn’t you just say no????” (worst advice EVER)
-We want to fit in and we have to deal with peer pressure and we have a fear to stand up for ourselves.
7.“Why don’t you just get over it and move on?”
-We have pain and we got hurt. It’s Real. For both girls and boys.
So Come on parents. Don’t think our life is so easy ’cause we’re young. CUZ IT’S NOT.

Their mom is Forever 21’s chief merchandising officer, and dad is chief executive.
This is probably the first time you’re reading about the sisters, it’s because the company has shied away from courting the media. One reporter who visited Forever 21, was only allowed into the lobby and conference room. The building doesn’t even have a sign outside.

So, I recently just got a Macbook. So you know, that Microsoft office does not come with Macs. So we ordered Microsoft office for Mac Student Edition. We had a trial version before hand, so we had to get rid of it before we install the real one. So we did that and installed Microsoft office. After we installed it, we tried to open word, an error message came up, it said, there was a problem while installing office and told us to follow some steps. We did what we were told but the same thing happened several times. So we called Microsoft support, the consultant told us what to do. He said to close all your applications. Then we did this:
1.Go to Finder >then press go> then home>then library>Preferences> Microsoft and put it in your trash.
THEN…
2. go to Finder>Applications>Microsoft office 2008>additional tools>then press remove office.
THEN
3. Go to Finder>go> go to folder>then type in /var/db/receipts> Then select all (shift key) com.microsoft’s (theres a lot)> then delete or move them all to trash>Then empty your trash.
Before installing you:
1. Disconnect your internet connections- wireless or network.
2. Install.
