Sheryl is in the pop rock section. Like Elvis Presley, she is in a class of her own cause she can sing the whole spectrum of music and SOUND great doing it!

She said there are still tickets available and the start at $100. She didn't know where the $35 came from, this just gets you into Radio City to see the show. For $2500 you can receive a ticket that includes the after show bash, but no guarantee that Sheryl will be there, and even if she is it's no guarntee that you can meet her. For $100,000, ypu can have full access to the after concert bash but there still isn't any guarantee the Sheryl will show for the bash! These folks are way out of my league and still no Guarantee to meet Sheryl! Who cares about Gore or the rest. The only reason for attending would be to meet the greatest of all time SHERYL! (maybe someday) On a brighter note, I got the best surprise anyone could get for my birthday. My co workers surprised me with a bday cake that had Sheryls picture on it> When I saw it I told them we're not cutting this and we didn't> Right now it is in my freezer and that's where it will stay unless I take it out to look at. Does anyone know how to preserve cake, so I can have my keepsake for a long time?

Lol, Dave, not sure about that one, you might want to ask the person who was selling part of her 35th B-day cake on ebay or something a while ago... I say take a picture and then just eat the cake. :) - ---------------------------------------------------- Join Care2.com's Race for the Rain Forest!

Briggite, Iīm from Spain and I must tell you that Sheryl came here not once but twice. Firstly she came to Barcelona and Madrid in 1992 to celebrate a small concert and then she came back in 1996 for a concert in the Pyrenees with Blur and some other artists in Doctor Music Festival.In fact Iīve got the video tape and you can see that she had a lot of fans in there. Itīs true that se isnīt as popular here as in America or so but frecuently you can listen to some songs in the radio and read some news in the newspaper. If you want i can send you some to prove it. I īd realy like to be as informed as you about Sherylīs concerts and news but I canīt , the only way to know some things about her frecuently are through Sheryl Crew, and I really thought that she was musically dead before joying the crew. So, now you can say that some artist such as sheryl , Michael jackson, Blur, Oasis, Tom Jones, Backstreet boys, Michael Bolton and a big etc have come here. It is not so far away.......

Although I'm not a psychologist, I do have some insight that I'd like to impart on you, if you will listen. I read a book last year called "Reviving Ophelia: Saving the Selves of Adolescent Girls" which was a great book about what happens to girls in their teenage years, and what the effects are on them. It's psychology that is especially made for us gals, and I'd recommend it to anyone who even knows teenage girls. In your sister's case, self inflicted pain is the way she deals with her life: (you're probably saying, "duh! I already knew that.") She feels pain inside, and since the only thing she feels she is in control of is her body, she inflicts pain on it. The thing is: there is a feeling of relief everytime she does it, but the more she does, the less it hurts, and so she has to make even bigger cuts. It is one of the worst habits that anyone can do to themselves. That can probably lead to other forms of self destruction, possibly suicide. I'm honestly not trying to scare you, but I do have another story to tell you: A few weeks ago, I went to my church youth confrence. We had a psychologist who spoke of a story that he had witnessed in his hospital: "We had one of the suicidal women in our place, who had been neglected since birth, basically came from a family that fought all the time, etc... She couldn't have much in her room, because she would attempt suicide with almost anything. She had tried it several times before while in the hospital, and we just wanted to keep her safe. One day, we had a situation with her. Nurses and doctors were all around her room, and everyone was keeping still. She somehow had possesion of a pen, and had already stabbed herself once, and threatened to do it again. By her side was another suicidal patient, an old woman who's favorite method was to run into traffic. That old woman sat by the young lady, arm around her shoulder, and spoke to her, 'Please don't do this. I love you, and I would miss you if you did it. Please don't do this.' With that said, the young woman dropped her pen, and went into tears. Later, when I sat down to talk with her, she simply told me that no one had ever told her that she was loved." Whatever cynicism anyone has about this matter, honestly, it all comes down to a feeling of understanding, and love. You may not be able to pry the scissors from her hands, but you can input a great feeling of self-worth into her that will be more valuable than anything else you can do. As for your parent's arguements, it does affect you. You have to listen to them arguing with each other, and even though they may be the ones to leave with feelings of anger, the children are always the ones who are upset by the fighting. This is something, probably many people can attest to. For this, all I can tell you is that many people feel unhappy in their own lives, and their frustration builds up to erupt at home. In both cases, you have to be strong enough to change how things are said, and dealt with, because the others aren't yet. Your personal strength will be an example to them, and others. Hope this helps. Honestly, if it doesn't, medical/psychological help would be the best thing for all - But don't wait until it's too late.
