Yes, even teens get stressed. We have to deal with so much drama. Well, I realized that a spa day helps out a lot! But, I don't go to a spa I have my own spa day at home. :)
For a spa day you will need to plan out a little while before, so you won't be rushing around. If you want, you can invite a few friends over and it can be a party.
Face Mask
You can purchase a face mask, or you can make one. It really doesn't matter. If you choose to purchase your then make sure that it is made from natural ingredients, not chemicals. If don't want to spend your money on that then you can make your own. It is pretty simple. Here are the ones I've tried. Keep in mind that they are a little messy. (Sometimes I leave the masks longer. You can leave it on for however long you want)
Honey, yogurt banana mask
Mix together 1/2 banana,
2 tablespoons of plain yogurt,
and 1 tablespoon of honey together
Leave on for 15-20 minutes then with cool or warm water.
Honey, orange (great for pimples)
Mix together 2 tablespoons of honey,
and a few drops of fresh orange juice together.
Leave on for 15-20 minutes then rinse of with cool or warm water.
Feet
For feet you should soak your feet in warm or hot water. If you don't have a foot soak then find something that is big enough for your feet to rest comfortably. If you have dry skin then put a little bit of bath beads or Epsom salt in the water. Your feet will be very soft! Another thing a friend and I tried was a foot mask. We bought one at the store. It worked great. But normally, I use the simpler way and put some lotion on my feet.
Nails
For nails you paint your nails as usual. I heard somewhere that if you push your cuticles back, then you should dip your nails in some milk, first. It should make the cuticles soft. I haven't tried this because I only paint my nails.
Bath
If you are having a spa day by your self then a warm bath, with a candle near by is very relaxing.
Decorating
Clean the room or rooms you are using. (If they are dirty) If you want put some flowers in the room. Because I don't have flowers I put scented candles around the room, and light an incent. That way the room smells great! You want the room to feel relaxing.

Drama
We all know what drama is, because we all had to deal with it. I will give a few tips on dealing with drama
If someone at school, or just someone you know is being a real jerk for no reason it makes you upset, doesn't it? Why wouldn't it? You were just standing there minding your own business, then someone comes up to you being a real jerk, and then just walks away. But, do you know why they walk away?
The reason people act like that is because something is going on in there life, or something happened to them, and they don't know how to deal with it. So, they they take there anger out on someone else. They want to get you all mad and upset, because it makes them feel better. If they get you feeling worse than they do, then they can say that person is worse than I am. Which makes them feel better.
We know what there saying is not true. But we still try to defend ourselves, and try to convince them that it isn't true. But, what we don't realize is that they know it's not true. The reason why they keep on being rude, and harsh, is because they are gaining more power. They know that you are upset, and that makes them feel better and powerful. They know that when someone is upset, that whatever they say will hurt them more. It makes them feel in control. They won.
Now, let's go back to when we try to convince that person that it isn't true. Why do we try to convince them that? What will it accomplish? Will it make you feel any better? Why do we care what they think of us so much? Just like the bully, we depend on others to make us feel better about our selves. Just in a different way. But, it doesn't matter what the people around you think of you. We are always concerned with what everyone thinks of us. I don't want them to think I'm weird. I don't want them to think that rumor about me is true. Because if they believe those rumors, then you are not the popular kid anymore, or now they think you're weird, ect. What we all need to do is realize is that we know it's not true. We don't NEED others to know that. It doesn't matter. As long you know it's not true than nothing else matters.
But, we still feel like that bully won. What did he win? He's the one who has to go through life with the negativity. We don't realize that when they hurt others, it does make them feel better. But, not for long. He has to hurt someone again, and again, to hide those negative feelings. If we all realize that then they can't hurt any of us, anymore.

True Love
I know that most girls are completely obsessed with having a boyfriend. Our society has made us all believe that you have to find love and you have to have a boyfriend, and if you don't then you don't have a life. That is why most relationships don't last long.
When I was in 5th grade girls in school would talk about there boyfriends and then ask about mine. They sounded so surprised when I said I didn't have one. They would immediately say "I'm gonna help you find one. Do you like him? How about him? No, him? You like him, right?" When I said no, they would point at another, and start walking toward him, and I had no idea who he was. I would have to stop them. But, I know that this how most relationships start. A girl is desperate for a guy, and picks the next guy her eyes see to be her new boyfriend.
Okay, first thing. I would like to ask you why do you need a boyfriend? And, why do need a boyfriend right now? Oh, that's right. Because everyone else has one. It is sad what kind of world we live in. Kids and teens are constantly being pressured. But I will go more into that later.
Now, I would like to say that don't you think it would be better to wait? Maybe, you should wait for the right guy. I think it would be better to stop searching for love, and let love find you. Most girls go searching for love at a very young age. That is why I can only make a few people understand why I don't have a boyfriend. Because, I'm 14 and I believe that to be a very young age for love. I think I'm to young. We are to young to truly understand what love is, but we go searching for it. I don't think we will be ready for love until we stop and let love find us. Because, if you were not ready for love than it would not find you.
