Hello Falcons!
"THE SUPER SOLVER" (LISTEN LOCKER RESPONSE)
*Advice is given from a student's perspective. If further help is needed please see your counselor.
SS (Super Solver): At an appropriate time, sit down and talk to her about how you feel and about your level of stress in competing, if that doesn't work, try to go to the counselor for help or a close friend.
Student: My boyfriend just broke up with me and my BFF said we shouldn't be friends. It's just been really hard. I cry all the time and to my BF I still love you. Why did you have to break up with me?
SS: Go talk to your ex-boyfriend about still being friends. If both of you agree on being friends, it will be ok to just be friends and not boyfriend and girlfriend. To your BFF, some times your friends are there to lift you up and not bring you down and you need that right now.
Student: My boyfriend broke up with me and I am very sad.
SS: Go have a girl's night and forget about him. Watch a funny or favorite movie, listen to your favorite song and dance the night away and end the night with a special treat just for you.
Student: My dog died. How do I cope?
SS: Some days you can just let go and let the emotion out. Hang out with friends and family to take your mind off of it. Here is a book recommendation, The Tenth Good Thing About Barney, Judith Viorst.
Student: How do I keep track of my work without stressing out?
SS: Get a Homework folder and label the sides "To Do" and "Finished" to turn in. Get a planner and when you get an assignment due write it down to keep track of all your assignments and due dates.
