Due to gender norms and the sometimes unhealthy social environments in schools, don't be surprised if you find others being unsupportive of your friendship or actively teasing you about it. If other kids accuse you of being in a romantic relationship or otherwise tease you about your friendship, practice some basic comebacks such as, "He's a friend who happens to be a boy, so what?" If you don't get worked up about it, eventually other kids will get tired of teasing you and leave you and your friend alone. You may find pressure to turn your friendship into a romantic relationship but stick to what you want. Even adults may inadvertently pressure you by asking questions such as, "Is he cute?" Let them know that you are not interested in his physical attributes and emphasize that you are just friends. One study has shown that boys and girls often have a hard time maintaining their relationships because they are pressured to make it romantic or sexual. If your boy friend starts pressuring you to turn the friendship into a relationship, make it clear that you are only interested in him platonically. If he stops being your friend after that, then he never was really your friend to begin with and you'll find other people who won't pressure you into something you don't want. At the end of the day, you make your own decisions about who you want to spend time with and how you want to live your life. Keeping this in mind will help you develop a stronger sense of self and not be overly affected by other people's opinions.

When your body transitions from active to resting, everything slows down, and temperature drops. Raising the temperature from a hot shower or a workout session will slow that process down, making it more difficult to sleep. If you need exercise to get tired, or a shower to get comfortable, start it earlier so you have at least thirty minutes to cool down before going to sleep. If you want to shower right before bed, it's okay to take a warm shower, as this will not interfere with your sleep. Your brain chemistry interprets blue light as early dawn, which makes your brain more active. Phones, game consoles, and computers are all sources of blue light. Games, work, puzzles, and other activities that involve mental effort may make it especially difficult to sleep. If you decide to use your computer at night, install Flux to make your computer screen change to redder and pinker "sunset" colors at night. You probably know that caffeine and sugar keep you awake, including caffeine found in soda and chocolate. Other substances that disturb your sleep include B-vitamins, steroidal medication for asthma, beta-blockers, opiates, ginseng, and guarana. If you take any of these as regular evening supplements, take them earlier in the day instead. Do not change your medication schedule without consulting a doctor. Drinking more water can help pass chemicals through your body faster, but this can be counterproductive if you end up waking up in the night to pee. The rush from cigarettes or any tobacco source can keep you up or cause anxious, restless slumber. The alcohol advice may seem more unusual, since alcohol puts you to sleep. The rhythm of your sleep after alcohol, however, is significantly disrupted. Avoid alcohol in the two to three hours before bed, or you might wake up in the night, or wake up tired in the morning. If you are having trouble sticking to a sleep schedule or sleeping the whole night through, melatonin can safely be used to encourage this behavior. For severe insomnia, doctor-prescribed sleep medication may be required, but regular use can build up tolerance and even reliance on the drug. Follow your doctor's instructions and skip the drug when possible to mitigate this situation. This common condition, characterized by snoring, cuts off air to your lungs while you sleep, causing restless sleep or frequent waking. You are more likely to be affected if you are overweight or have breathing problems. Your doctor may recommend a "sleep lab" where your sleep is monitored to find out more.

Squash is a game played with two players (although you can practice on your own). The game begins when one player serves the ball from the serving square. The server hits the ball against the far wall of the squash court so that it bounces back into the other half of the court, opposite the servers square. The goal for both players is to return the ball to the far wall, only allowing one bounce on the floor before hitting it. When returning the ball to the far wall, it can bounce off the the side walls of the court, but not the floor. The last person to successfully hit the wall during a volley wins a point. You must hit the far wall of the court in between an upper line and a lower line, indicated on the wall. The bottom line has a strip of tin along it, so that you can hear when a ball hits it. A squash match is awarded to the player who wins the best of 3 or 5 games. Each game goes to 11 points, with the first player to reach 11, by at least two points, winning. If a player reaches 11 points but the other player has 10 points, for instance, then the game continues until one player gets ahead by two points. Unlike in tennis, either player can gain a point on any play. All that matters is that the person who does not return the volley loses the point. The player that earns each point follows their point by becoming, or continuing to be, the server. Position your hand so that there is a "v" between your thumb and pointer finger, but put the rest of the fingers close to the pointer finger. Grip your hand around the handle of the racket firmly but not so hard that your hand is stressed.
