Dear Rising Sun
| Dear Rising Sun, I have a BIG problem. You see me and this boy named Ted that lives in Grand Isle, are in love. Eventhough he lives so far away, he comes to see me very often, and every time he comes to see me we have a date, well every date we have had since I known him was to go out to eat. Well, that's not really the problem, the problem is...he weighs 268 pounds and I'm embarrassed to be seen with him, but I do love him ALOT. What should I do about his appetite? or weight?(sic) |

| Please help, Ted's lover | |
| Dear Lover, Maybe you're thinking too much about his weight and forgetting that other things are important too. Start a weight losing program and help him to build a new sel-confidence. Suggest going somewhere else other than a place to eat when you go out. If you keep suggesting things to do and places to go, maybe he'll get the hint. If not, you'd better have a serious talk with him and find out way. However, as I've said before, there are other important things. What makes people beautiful is not their looks, but what's inside, their personality. If more people knew this, the world would be better off. |

| Dear Rising Sun, I am really depressed right now because it is lunch hour and I'm sitting here all alone with nothing to do. I am new at this school and I haven't a lot of friends. I know a lot of people, and they all seem friendly, but everybody has their little group. I'd rather be a loner than be part of a group. At the school I use to attend I was quite popular. So it really depresses me because I can't fit in here at Bourgeois. Can you please offer a bit of advice. |

| Dear L.A.D., Join school activities (a club), so people will get to know you. Don't be afraid to make the first move toward making friends. Start a conversation by talking to some of kids who sit next to you in class. Find out their interests (maybe theirs will be similar to yours). It's easier to talkin when you have something in common. Above all relax; you are new to them and vice veresa. They need time to decide what type of person you are. Pretty soon you'll like an old-timer. Be nice to everyone, but not overly nice and remember don't ever give up your freedom to please someone who is suppose to be "cool". Try acting naturally. If people are nice inside, it shows outside. Keep smiling and you'll make friends. |

| Dear Rising Sun, I am writing this letter regarding the clocks in our school. Why don't they all have the same time, right time?! It really is a Hassle going from hall to hall to try to find a clock that is working correctly. Please faculty take note, we need our clocks. |
