Advice Column: Dear Millie<br />

Dear Millie,<br />

Is it okay to be sarcastic to your exboyfriend<br />

because he made you cry?<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Sarcastic Girlfriend<br />

Dear Sarcastic Girlfriend,<br />

Well, it’s probably better to just be a<br />

nice person and treat your ex-boyfriend<br />

how you wish he had treated you. Just<br />

try to forget what he did and move on.<br />

Maybe one day you’ll even be able to be<br />

friends.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Millie<br />

Dear Millie,<br />

I have a friend problem:<br />

I have these friends that always annoy<br />

me and it seems like they don’t even see<br />

me when I’m around. One day I heard<br />

them talking about me… how do I confront<br />

them?<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Confused Friend<br />

Dear Confused Friend,<br />

Well maybe you should just ask them<br />

what’s wrong. Ask them if there’s something<br />

you did to upset them. Tell them it<br />

hurts your feelings when you hear them<br />

talking about you, and hopefully that will<br />

make them stop. If they keep talking<br />

about you behind your back, maybe it’s<br />

time to move on and make friends who<br />

treat you with respect. Remember, your<br />

friends should like you for who you are<br />

and not make you feel bad about yourself.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Millie<br />

Dear Millie,<br />

I finally had the strength to tell this<br />

girl that I like her. But what can I do to<br />

make her feel the same way?<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Like Her a lot<br />

Dear Like Her a lot,<br />

It’s really good that you had the<br />

strength to tell her that you like her.<br />

T-Shirt and Yearbook Cover Contests<br />

by Chong Khang & KaZoua Yang<br />

The middle school students participated<br />

in a T-shirt contest again this year. Mr.<br />

Kong Pheng Vang, the art teacher, was in<br />

charge of the contest. Students who<br />

wanted to enter the contest were to<br />

create a T-shirt logo that represented<br />

<strong>New</strong> <strong>Millennium</strong> Academy.<br />

The T-shirts were either Vikings purple<br />

or orange, with white writing for the<br />

logo. “I wanted students who were participating<br />

in the contest to show how<br />

creative they are,” said Mr. Vang.<br />

Many students made drawings and<br />

sketches, and after much deliberation,<br />

the winner of the contest was announced:<br />

seventh grader, Pahoua Her.<br />

She won a free T-shirt for making the<br />

winning design.<br />

Mr. Vang is also taking applications for<br />

the yearbook cover contest. Students<br />

still have the opportunity to design this<br />

year’s school yearbook cover which will<br />

come out sometime in the spring.<br />

Maybe you could ask her out to show<br />

her that she’s important to you. Just be<br />

honest with her and be yourself around<br />

her.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Millie<br />

Dear Millie,<br />

Is it okay to interfere with other people’s<br />

business if it is really important?<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Interfering<br />

Dear Interfering,<br />

Yes, if it is something that you feel is<br />

really important, then it’s okay to interfere.<br />

If you’re doing it because you care<br />

about the person, then it’s fine. It<br />

sounds like you want to interfere because<br />

you’re concerned about a friend,<br />

so I’m sure your friend will understand<br />

that.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Millie<br />
