My Younger Sister's Problem

She will definately learn that college is a lot harder to deal with than high shool. I know the feeling, as I am also a freshman in college. Granted I am an older student, but it's still the same. You go in and all of a sudden your world is flipped around. Things seem to flood you when you least expect it. But, she will survive, as long as you are there for her. Let her know that she hasn't changed, but she is now in a different league. Be there for her and support her.

well, i guess people college aren't the same with high school. there's more various people in college than in high school. because people in college comes from everywhere. when i entered my first year, it's a bit of a culture shock for me. so, different culture it means different types of guy. i mean, not all guy there will fall on your sister's friend. just be optimis that there will be a guy that notice her.

Well you have to show her some tough love once in a while, as I always say, we can make things happen but then we can never make other people do as how we want things to be. She has got to get use to the fact that she cannot always please everyone, well not as much as her friend does. But there will always be people who'll like her and be drawn to her too but of course she has to be stronger and learn to get used to the situation as her social status wasn't like that in high school. Environment change and we need to adapt to survive, therefore she must learn to adapt to her new environment so as to make things easier for herself.

She has to realize that college life is far different from high school and problem like this is part of her growing up, there are lots of lessons to be learned and in a way you can feel glad that she's experiencing such, it will help her along the way i'm sure..in the mena time, you can support her and encourage her like the way you do. :) regards to her

Cute;)I think you should tell her the truth.Tell her that her friend might be popular but she's special in so many ways.Or go with her to college one day;)

Dee, I don't know but it is no big deal.. I mean you can be popular within commerce department. And in order to do that, she needs to participate in every activity that commerce has to offer, she knows how to dance so she can use that talent to her advantage. And if she knows how to play basketball, or volleyball, or tennis then join the team. ANd the most effective strategy is to top or be part of the top 5 students in her block. . . Also JUST BE HERSELF! and be friendly but maintain an aura of mystery like people will keep on guessing who she really is, what kind of person is she. To be honest Dee, I never experienced that coz I didn't mind them. I mean I was not there to please them but i was there because i want to be there and I was happy where I was. I don't care if a lot of people did not know me...who cares?! I just did my thing. If she wants people to know her or notice her then she better likes herself first,she should take care of herself and love herself for what she is and what she can contribute.
