Nice Change

Your magazine is great! It's the nicest one I've seen for girls my age--I'm almost 13. Other magazines only talk about beauty, boys and makeup. You have some of that, but you also have good advice on school and family. I especially like the Short Stuff and BFF BFF Best Friends Forever (chat)

I am so glad to see all the '80s fashions in your last issue [F/M F/M Food to Microorganism ratio  '01]! Even some of the movies in "Girls Night In" are from the '80s The '80s were the best! I hope the music comes back, too. I look forward to hearing Bruce Springsteen, Debbie Gibson Deborah Ann "Debbie" Gibson (born August 31, 1970), is an American singer-songwriter who was a teen pop icon.

Country Time

I really like "Play That Country Music" [F/M '01]. Terri-Lynne has the right idea. Race should have absolutely nothing to do with music. If I like Mozart, does that mean I have to be Austrian? No! Kudos to Terri-Lynne for her views on a potentially sensitive subject.

Emily

Out of the whole last issue [F/M '01], "Play That Country Music" is the best article! Although I am white, I love mostly black artists--especially Motown and R&B. I don't feel like I'm betraying my race either. Terri-Lynne has every right to like music by white performers. Congrats con·grats   Informal

I really like "Be the Next Big Thing." You're right about hanging out with your crush. I started to hang with my crush, his best friend and two other girls. Now we talk all the time, and I feel so comfortable around him. Thanks for the great advice!

"Be the Next Big Thing" helped me realize I already have what it takes to get the guy I like. You are so right!

Marta

To say the least, I am a little disappointed with your last issue. I absolutely love all your past issues, but I feel like this one is different. What is up with "Be the Next Big Thing"? Being popular, fashionable and having a boyfriend are not the only things being a girl is about. Was this just the Valentine's special? I hope so. Don't get me wrong. I love your mag--but the reason I like it is because it's different from the other mags.

Thanks so much for "Girls' Night In" [F/M '01]. My friends and I rarely get much time to spend together. After reading your article, we planned a girls night. We're really looking forward to our special night in together. Thank you from all of my friends who love reading Girls Life as much as I do.

After reading "Girls' Night In," I must say, this is a great article! I'm always in major chaos whenever I plan sleepovers but, after this totally awesome article, nobody will be bored at my parties! Thanks a lot--you guys are fantastic party planners.
