Friendship Legacy:
If there’s one thing my friends will always remember about me, it’s that I’m one of a kind!

Something You Should Know About Me: It doesn’t matter what other people expect of me—I’m my own person.

Suddenly I'm a Chauffeur
I just realized the downside to having my license … everyone has started asking me for rides—even people I’m not really good friends with. None of my friends have a car yet, so I get called constantly to drive places, and no one offers to help pay for gas.  That means Marshall and I hardly ever have time to ourselves.  I think when they get their own cars things will change, so I’m trying to just go with the flow, but it’s hard. How do you say “no” to a friend and still be friends?

Just be polite, but firm. Say: ‘I’m sorry, but I can’t do that right now.’ Keep repeating it over and over until your message is clear, but also leave the door open for the future. If you feel like you just can’t say no, say: ‘Maybe next time.’

If you let your friends walk all over you, soon they’ll take complete advantage of you. In seventh grade, this girl decided I was her slave and would fetch anything she wanted in the cafeteria. It made me so mad! I wish I had handled it better, but I ended up getting my lunch period switched and finding a new crowd of friends.

My mom and dad told me I can always use them as the ‘bad’ guy. If I want to leave a party early or don’t want to do something my friends are doing, I make a face and say, "Sorry, but my parents would ground me forever."
