[quote=Anonymous]DON'T give that idiotic advice about math being hard for girls. Someone once told me (or perhaps I read it in an inspirational book? Don't really remember): don't just choose to do the things that are easy for you, choose the things that are hard. Abstract, perhaps, but the point is to always challenge yourself. Terrified of public speaking? Sign up for a debate class. Struggle with reading? Join a book club. That sort of thing. Love the advice about getting involved: sports, theater, music, chess club, whatever. Pick something you enjoy, or think you might enjoy, and do it. You can always switch to something else next year, but always have something. It's a great way to make friends, in addition to building confidence and developing your own personality.[/quote]
