How can you be a class clown without getting in trouble?
Many people think that they always have to be funny in order to make other people like them, or to distract others and themselves from their emotions. This doesn't work - always having a smart remark or a comeback line can get very annoying!
If you are using jokes and smart remarks as a way to avoid dealing with your stress and your emotions, I encourage you to try healthier ways of dealing - cognitive behavioral therapy has worked for me and for many, many people that I know personally. It helps you un-learn bad habits you have for dealing with life and learn new healthy habits instead.
There is a big difference between joking because you enjoy being a comedian and joking to distract attention from the fact that you're really miserable inside!

Here are some tips to help you be funny at school without getting in trouble
- Don't interrupt. If you have something funny to say, be sure that you are not interrupting the teacher or another student. If your class is fairly serious, you might even raise your hand to be called upon by the teacher before you tell everyone your joke
- Watch the people around you. You can tell by facial expressions and body language if other people think you are being funny or being annoying. If you are getting a lot of frowns, groans, and people looking away, you should save the clown act for later - see below also.
- Save the funny act for later. If you are good at acting silly, horseplay, and things like funny walks or imitations, save that for lunch, recess, or other times when you have lots of free time and more people who can enjoy it. Doing something like that during class is interrupting and keeps everybody from learning.
- Try acting. Many professional comedians get their start by being funny on stage at school. Check out your drama department or acting club. Ask around to see if there is a talent show where you could try out your comedy routine. See if you can start a joke-telling contest or "who can make the silliest face" contest or anything at all to get other people involved.
- Study comedy. Professional comedians study other comedians. They do a lot of research to find out what is funny and what is not. They try out jokes a lot of different ways before they put them into their act. You can start learning about comedy now, and try out some of the things you learn at school.

Reading can be fun if you enjoy what you read. Books (or even articles online) provide information that improves your perception of the world around you. Even fiction contains elements of the world that you may never directly experience.
But you may be someone who hate reading, possibly because you don't understand, or often end a chapter only to realize you didn't get it. You have to stay focused and use your imagination to help you visualize the book's settings and characters, which will help it come to life. And you should keep your attention on the book, not other things such as TV shows or games.

be more bold... decide that you are going to be happy with the way you are... if you ask a boy/girl out and he/she says no that is ok because there are more people to love... if people make fun of you then walk away or take a day to think of come backs and use those... if your parents say you are worth nothing then either block it out or for a last resort... talk to a teacher or somebody you trust and ask them to help you get a social worker to take you to a foster family... that may not be very good but it will get you away from your parents... i understand you might be over the age of 18 so the parent to foster family thing might b e irrelevent... i hope this helped!

Faith is not knowing what the future holds but knowing who holds the future. Is this Altruism?
Altruism is a belief or practice that entails holding the well-being of other people above yourself. This quote seems to be more about self-confidence; it stresses that faith is less about know what will happen in the future, but about knowing that you can handle whatever comes your way.
The way one looks at something, the relative positioning of one thing in relation to another. Let me put it like this, a man, many years ago, once said to me ' If you don't change your attitude I am going to change your features !' Oh boy, I knew Exactly what he meant !

Have people been hurt because of rasicm?
YES!! In colonial times, black people were slaves to white people, most were treated horribly, and the ride to America was not pretty either. Natice Americans were pushed off there land to make room for white settlers, even though there was probably enough land to go around. When Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke out, millions spoke with him, and were put in jail. There is footage of firefighters taking down Blacks with hoses, and children were in there. In more recent news (by like three or four months) I believe it was in Jennasville, Louisianna, where there was a "white" tree, and when three Blacks went to sit there, people got mad. The next day, there were three nooses on that tree. One of the white boys under the "white" tree insulted those same black boys with racial slurrs, he was in the hospital a while later.
