GREETINGS,<br />
humans.<br />
fellow<br />
I’m Amanda, the brains behind SKGfun. *waves*<br />
SKGfun began in 2012, yielded from the seeds of an introverted 12-yearold<br />
only beginning to find her place in life. Yup! That girl was me.<br />
(SURPRISE) I rounded up my small assembly of friends and together we<br />
bonded over our love of writing and our craving to be heard in an<br />
unethical, corrupt world. The product of our labor was a newsletter jampacked<br />
with amusing stories, useless facts, wise sayings, and little bits<br />
and pieces of tween brains (which, as you can guess, are pretty, um,<br />
INTERESTING fragments of creation . . .).<br />
Now the newsletter has evolved into an e-magazine. We have many<br />
writers and an ever-growing mailing list. Added on to the magazine is a<br />
blog that I write on weekly with tips for girls navigating through the teen<br />
years (because it’s hard, amiright?). This e-book came to me one night<br />
while texting one of my bestest friends. I’m always having ideas, but this<br />
one seemed like a winner. In this e-book, I hope to impart with you some<br />
of my best tips on achieving the characteristics of a South Kakalaki Girl.<br />
A South Kakalaki Girl is, in essence, a mature, memorable Christian girl<br />
who puts others first. She is resourceful and “with-it.” She holds her<br />
ground in her beliefs, but isn’t bullheaded. Check the table of contents on<br />
the next page to find more characteristics of an SKG. I’m so glad that<br />
you’ve decided to take this journey with me (*virtual high five*). I want<br />
SKGfun to be your sacred oasis, where you can learn exciting things that<br />
make your teen years simpler, as they should be.<br />
And by the way—I absolutely love meeting new friends, so make sure to<br />
connect online at skgfun.com. We’re also on all major social media.<br />
Thanks for reading, dear friend!<br />

I LOVE TO THINK THAT<br />
when God made us, He gave us just a tiny bit of<br />
His amazing creativity. I mean, think about how<br />
creative He had to be when he made the millions kinds<br />
of flowers and animals, fashioned the ideas of colors and<br />
emotion, and fabricated the laws of math and science! Now,<br />
He gave larger helpings of creativity to some people than the<br />
rest of humanity. But that’s totally okay! Everyone is creative<br />
to a certain extent—we have the ability to use our brains and<br />
invent unique solutions to problems and more! Here are some<br />
ways to develop your creativity.<br />
Creative<br />
1.<br />
Say hello to your new best friend, Hobby Lobby. Head<br />
over there and grab one of them handy nifty<br />
sketchbooks. They don’t cost a lot at all and go for<br />
pretty cheap. I mean, after all, it's only a spiral bound<br />
pad of paper. #INGENIOUS<br />
Buy a sketchbook.<br />
The sky isn’t always blue! (Okay, actually it is, but<br />
work with me here). Sometimes it can be turquoise or<br />
polka-dotted. Don’t just settle for the first thing that<br />
comes to your mind. Dare yourself to do something that<br />
isn't the first thing that comes to mind. Like what?!?!<br />
Think outside of the box.<br />
3. Yeah, these rarely turn out (*cough cough*<br />
PINTEREST) But the experience is what counts, right?<br />
Plus, there’s nothing like making something with your<br />
lil’ ole hands.<br />
Take a jab at a DIY.<br />
4.<br />
There’s a myriad of utensils out there for art-making.<br />
Pastels (chalk and oil), markers, colored pencils,<br />
crayons, paint (acrylic, oil, and watercolor), plain old<br />
pencils . . . you could even make multimedia collages<br />
with the pages of old catalogues!<br />
Practice sketching!<br />

Designing a whole cohesive blog<br />
design is quite a challenge!<br />
Start a blog.<br />
Brainstorming post ideas is not exactly a walk in the<br />
park either. Well, maybe it is, but it's a walk in the park<br />
holding a rabid pitbull while screaming at a beehive that's<br />
stuck to your head. However, it's so much fun and will<br />
challenge you to exercise your imagination. You can take<br />
inspiration from everyday life! Have a question you want<br />
answered? Google the answer, read up about it, become a faux<br />
pro, and write a post!<br />
6.<br />
2.<br />
Have a favorite blog or Instagram page? Take<br />
screenshots of your favorite pictures and blog posts<br />
and start a file (a.k.a. Pinterest). Speaking of<br />
Pinterest, Pinterest is quite inspiring in and of itself . .<br />
. as long as you aren't getting sidetracked and<br />
forgetting about school whilst pinning images of<br />
meerkats wearing clown shoes and overalls.<br />
Be inspired.<br />
7.<br />
Remember when were younger and loved<br />
pretending you were a veterinarian<br />
Exercise<br />
or<br />
your<br />
a<br />
imagination.<br />
detective?<br />
Whatever happened to doing that? Who says we can't<br />
still let our imaginations run wild? Don't be afraid to<br />
consider what it would be like running a business or<br />
being a pediatrician. What would your business sell?<br />
What would its name, logo, colors, and setup be? If<br />
you're like me, considering these things gives you a<br />
buzz. And that buzz, my friend, means you're doing<br />
your imagining right!<br />

ACTION STEPS for becoming outgoing<br />
MAKING FRIENDS AS A<br />
All you had to do is walk up to a the first<br />
pigtailed girl you saw and ask: “Do you want to<br />
play<br />
with me?” You didn't even know your "friend's" name<br />
and you never would. But that wasn't a problem!<br />
As we transition from kids to teenagers, making friends gets<br />
harder and harder. Everyone thinks they’re going to be judged for<br />
what they say or do, so nothing ever gets done. Plus, we like to tell<br />
ourselves that we “don’t need anyone." *pats self on back* We pride<br />
ourselves on our individuality. But it’s only natural to want to be<br />
around people. It’s time for us to pop out of our shells and let<br />
everyone see who we really are!<br />
Outgoing<br />
SIX-YEAR-OLD WAS A BREEZE.<br />
1. How do you feel when a complete stranger tells you they<br />
love your shoes? Pretty awesome, huh? The next time you<br />
think someone’s outfit is cute, tell them! AND NO LYING,<br />
you devious melon. Give honest compliments; don't just<br />
throw them around like cheap confetti. People will start<br />
noticing and they won’t believe you anymore. If possible,<br />
draw out the conversation more. Ask where they got the<br />
idea for the outfit, or where they got their scarf from.<br />
Give a compliment.<br />
Even if it's TERRIBLE. Find your sense of humor and use<br />
it! Be willing to let others laugh at—excuse me, with<br />
—you. Are you "punny" or more ironic? Also, be willing to<br />
laugh . . . at yourself. The next time you do something<br />
2.<br />
super embarrassing, just laugh it off! It'll help. PROMISE.<br />
Crack a joke.<br />

I get so happy when I’m out and<br />
about and I smile at random<br />
people . . . and they smile back! There’s a certain<br />
power in being able to contract a grin from somebody. If<br />
3.<br />
you’re always smiley, people will notice. They’ll want to<br />
know why you’re always so happy, and you can use that as a<br />
witnessing tool!<br />
CONTINUED<br />
Outgoing<br />
Smile!<br />

motorcycle jacket that I pair with a plaid shirt and red<br />
bandanna for a '50s biker feel. I also get pretty frilly and<br />
girly too: huge bows and lots of lace are two of my<br />
favorite accessories for cuter looks!<br />

(except a zombie apocalypse; sorry)<br />
Prepared<br />
WHEN PEOPLE MAKE FUN<br />
OF MY BIG PURSE/HUGE SUITCASE<br />
I grin and say, “Always be prepared!”<br />
Okay, so maybe being prepared doesn’t mean bringing<br />
twenty different pairs of pants on a weekend vacation<br />
(because I totally haven't done that before). But it does mean<br />
being ready for anything! Here's some tips on how you can be<br />
prepared for ANYTHING.<br />
You’ve heard about this before—but have you actually<br />
ever made one? Grab a bag—not too big, but not too<br />
small. Make sure you include a few band-aids, some<br />
chapstick, rubber bands, and emergency toiletries. In<br />
1.<br />
my ideal emergency kit, I'd also have snacks. But hey,<br />
that's just a suggestion.<br />
Make an emergency kit.<br />
2. Whether you’re attending a class or spending a week at<br />
camp, make sure you have all the details. Lots of camps<br />
have websites with checklists for everything you’ll<br />
need to bring, as well as sample schedules so you’ll<br />
know what your average day will look like. Some camps<br />
even have verse sheets so you can start learning verses<br />
before you get to camp—what a life saver! For classes,<br />
make sure you have all your required textbooks and<br />
test forms. Check the rules (Are you allowed to bring<br />
computers? What do you do if you’re absent a lesson?).<br />
Check the details.<br />
3.<br />
You can apply this to every area of your life. Recheck<br />
test and quiz answers; make sure that you closed the<br />
garage door; affirm that you have all your books and<br />
homework for class; check you have a slip on; verify<br />
you don’t have food on your face; check, check, check!<br />
Check TWICE!<br />
| 7
But wait . . . are you prepared for<br />
A lot of being prepared is just<br />
being able to look ahead and<br />
anticipate what could happen. I do this all the time<br />
in soccer—I always have to be at least three steps<br />
4.<br />
ahead of the current play. Plan for the worst! Consider<br />
all your options, all the possibilities. Anticipate disaster!<br />
CONTINUED<br />
Prepared<br />
Think ahead.<br />
5.<br />
during "that time of the month." You will fail.<br />
EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Don't tempt fate.<br />
. . . white wear Don't<br />
The most important preparation EVER is getting ready for<br />
eternity. Sweet reader, after you close your eyes for the<br />
ETERNITY?<br />
very<br />
last time, you're going to spend the rest of your life<br />
somewhere.<br />
One place is of sweet eternal bliss with a Father that loves us<br />
with a deep, deep love: Heaven!<br />
But the other place is terrifying, full of physical and mental<br />
torment: Hell.<br />
I don't want any of you reading this to suffer! God loves YOU,<br />
and He wants YOU to be prepared for eternity. He's offering<br />
you a ticket out of Hell, a way to live with Him for the rest of<br />
eternity. All you have to do is take it. If you believe that<br />
Christ, the beautiful Son of God, became a man and died for<br />
your sins, rose again in three days, and is in Heaven in the<br />
right hand of the Father, He welcomes you with open arms<br />
into the kingdom of Heaven. Just tell Him, and you'll be free.<br />

The only thing you can do is<br />
Athletic<br />
Maybe you can’t catch a ball to save<br />
your life. Or maybe you’re like me, where<br />
one sport comes naturally and the other<br />
mockingly (and literally) bonks you on the head<br />
just in spite.<br />
Unleash the competition inside of you and don’t be afraid to<br />
fail. Oh wow, you're ready already? That's the spirit!<br />
IS TRY.<br />
1.<br />
There are countless ways you can teach yourself to<br />
have faster reflexes or catch a ball. Bouncing a ball<br />
against a wall and catching it is a good starting drill.<br />
Another drill is to drop a ball and clap when you think<br />
it hits the ground. Even throwing balls with your<br />
brothers is fun (just note you’ll have to prove yourself<br />
to them first—they don’t let you participate without<br />
an initiation).<br />
Do drills.<br />
The most basic sport is running. Just get outside or<br />
hop on your treadmill and run, run, run! Listen to<br />
music or watch a show to make time fly faster. You<br />
can even run with a buddy! If you want to run with<br />
me, just don’t expect me to talk—at all. I huff and buff<br />
like the big bad wolf, but I won't let you beat me<br />
without a fight.<br />
2. Run!<br />
The internet has tons of resources for different poses<br />
and tutorials. Yoga will aid in your flexibility and<br />
encourage your blood to flow. It’s very healthy! Plus<br />
very "in." If you do yoga and eat salad<br />
3. Do yoga! you're like this<br />
super-hip athletic ninja. AND EVERYONE WANTS<br />
TO BE A NINJA.<br />

CONTINUED<br />
Athletic<br />
Always needing to win isn’t<br />
healthy—but desiring to do<br />
your best is! Be the person whom everyone wants<br />
on their team by always trying your hardest.<br />
4.<br />
Be competitive!<br />
5.<br />
Strengthen your core.<br />
Complete exercises like planks, crunches,<br />
Russian twists, and sit-ups to tone your abs.<br />
6.<br />
Everyone’s different. You may enjoy team sports, or<br />
you might be more of an individual. Hand-eye<br />
Sign up for a sport!<br />
coordination may be lacking, but boy can you kick a<br />
ball! Be brave and try new sports, even if you’ve never<br />
touched a basketball in your life. Try to evolve your<br />
sports portfolio. You’ll especially want to make sure<br />
you can hold your own in pick-up games like<br />
basketball, volleyball, and soccer. You never know<br />
when someone might start a game and you can be a<br />
#boss!<br />

Beautiful<br />
I'VE LEARNED THE HARD WAY<br />
that you can’t judge a person by their looks. They<br />
could be the most gorgeous person on the face of the<br />
earth, and yet their insides reek of rancid hate and<br />
grief.<br />
A South Kakalaki Girl understands that beauty isn’t on the<br />
outside—it’s on the inside. Okay—so how many times have you<br />
heard that? Well, I know for me, more times than I can count.<br />
But never before has it been so true. Firstly, note this:<br />
1.<br />
to be beautiful. The world insists that desirability<br />
involves showing everything you have. This is not true.<br />
You don’t want to be attracting guys who like you just<br />
because you’re physically beautiful. That beauty will<br />
dwindle, and when he’s left with a cranky old woman,<br />
he’ll be gone before you can buy dentures. Here are<br />
some ways to work on your inner beauty.<br />
You don't have to show everything<br />
Discover who are as a person. Do you make people<br />
laugh? Are you a story teller? Are you a<br />
Find<br />
natural<br />
yourself.<br />
leader?<br />
Once you determine who you are, never let that go for<br />
anyone.<br />
3. It’s easy to look out for yourself. We live in a “Me First”<br />
world. You can tell just by driving around town that<br />
courtesy is pretty much nonexistent. *honks horn* By<br />
putting others first, people will notice you’re different.<br />
"Others first." ALWAYS.<br />
The words that come out of your mouth should always<br />
elevate and inspire. Imagine yourself in an elevator at<br />
a mall, surrounded by people of all ages. Every time<br />
you say something nice, the elevator goes up a level to<br />
4.<br />
an even better store. But every time you speak<br />
hatefully, the elevator goes down. Or, if you're like me,<br />
you like to think of it more in a video game, level up<br />
level down analogy.<br />
Encourage those around you.<br />

Peaceful<br />
PEOPLE DISAGREE.<br />
It’s just one of the wonderful facts of life.<br />
However, not all fights must occur. Sometimes we<br />
bicker over the silliest things (*gives brother “the<br />
look”, because I NEVER BICKER OVER USELESS<br />
JUNK*). But remember . . .<br />
1.<br />
"YES I DO AND I'M RIGHT YOU'RE WRONG SO JUST<br />
STAHP."<br />
It’s just built into humans that we’re always right.<br />
Even when we’re not, we’re right. Why are we like this?<br />
Maybe because we’re also just naturally stubborn.<br />
Listen—you don’t have to be right all the stinkin’ time.<br />
You’ll make mistakes (*sigh*). You’ll do dumb things<br />
(*more sighing*). You’ll say something in the heat of<br />
the moment that was totally out of context (*gahhh<br />
whyyyyyy*). Don’t try to authenticate your seeming<br />
perfection.<br />
You don't have to always be right.<br />
Recognizing you’re wrong is one thing. Admitting it is a<br />
whole other beast.<br />
Be<br />
You<br />
willing<br />
really<br />
to<br />
have<br />
admit<br />
to<br />
you're<br />
humble<br />
wrong<br />
yourself<br />
in order to acknowledge your thinking was incorrect.<br />
Humbling ourselves is always a good exercise and<br />
should be done more often. People won’t look down on<br />
you for your mistake. They’ve been wrong before too<br />
(unless you're my dad, end of story).<br />
3. Some people throw “sorry” around like sprinkles, while<br />
others grasp it with gusto. Balance in the middle—say<br />
sorry when it’s appropriate and you mean it. Pull an<br />
Anne of Green Gables and just don't say "sorry" if you<br />
don't mean it.<br />
Say sorry.<br />
The best way to be peaceful is to compromise. I’ve<br />
found compromise to be a crucial instrument in my<br />
toolbelt. You don’t totally have to admit you’re wrong<br />
—you’re just, you know, halfway wrong. And so is the<br />
4.<br />
other person. Points!<br />
Compromise.<br />

THE ONLY THING I<br />
Smart<br />
have to say on this matter is as follows: BUY<br />
A PAIR OF GLASSES PEOPLE WHO WEAR<br />
GLASSES LOOK AND FEEL SMARTER.<br />
Kidding, kidding! That's TERRIBLE advice. Here's the<br />
real stuff. My mom always tells me that the only thing I<br />
need to worry about right now as a teenage girl is school.<br />
That’s my priority (well, that and obeying my parents<br />
—but that’s a whole different topic!) So . . . school. Ugh,<br />
right? Whether history or chemistry is your worst enemy,<br />
we all have our favorite subjects (like lunch or that<br />
moment when school ends) . . . and our not so favorite<br />
subjects. Here are tips to help conquer those less-thanfun<br />
subjects!<br />
Grab a cute notebook (notice that “cute” part—that’s<br />
important) and a colored pen and write the lesson<br />
down! I don’t know how your school is set up, but as I<br />
listen to my lectures I make doodle graphics and letter<br />
words that I don’t know the definition for. It really<br />
helps to engage your fingers. There’s something about<br />
writing words out that helps us remember them better!<br />
Take notes.<br />
2. In one school year, I must’ve gone through over 5000<br />
index cards. But hey, the technique worked and I got at<br />
least a B on my tests. You can use plain white index<br />
cards, but the neon green and pink ones are my<br />
favorite. Write out important terms on one side, and on<br />
the other scribble down the definition. This next part<br />
takes time, I know, but I promise you’ll see results!<br />
Every night before you go to bed, refresh the terms in<br />
your mind. Yeah, who wants to do school right before<br />
bed? *Groans inwardly* But it’s worth a B grade,<br />
amiright?<br />
Make index cards.<br />
3.<br />
Scientifically, yellow highlighters are the best for<br />
studying. Don’t ask me where I heard that from . . .<br />
highlighters.<br />
Use<br />
| 13
CONTINUED<br />
Smart<br />
It was either my mom, Google, or a<br />
Pinterest meme. But go crazy with the<br />
colors! I like using one color for each<br />
subject, but as the school year progresses I<br />
find myself losing highlighters and discovering<br />
even more dried-up ones in the crevices of my<br />
school bag. IT'S FUN.<br />
I’m a very proud person. Asking for help is<br />
generally not an option for me!<br />
Ask<br />
But<br />
for<br />
when<br />
help.<br />
I<br />
started majorly bombing chemistry and<br />
geometry, I knew it was time to<br />
4.<br />
give up my<br />
arrogance and search for assistance.<br />

BEING A HARE-BRAINED ARTIST,<br />
organization does not come easily to me. It’s<br />
the opposite for my sister Rachel. In her room,<br />
everything not only has a place but is in its place. I<br />
like to think of my room as a less insane version of<br />
Holly Golightly’s apartment. While you won’t find a<br />
telephone hidden in the netherregions of my suitcase, you<br />
may discover hand sanitzer in a pencil case, extra t-shirts<br />
next to my bed, and library books hidden underneath my pillow.<br />
Organization, however, is taking care of the things God has<br />
gifted you with. Okay . . . I’ll go clean out my pencil case. And<br />
while I do that, here are some things you can do to reorganize<br />
your room . . .<br />
Organized<br />
1.<br />
I bought some really cute black ones about two years<br />
ago. They were cheap, yet functional. I still have the<br />
bookcases. *begin embarrassing story* When I first<br />
purchased them, I was absolutely driven to build them<br />
myself. Well, a few crooked nails later, I realized I had<br />
put the back on wrong. So, I ruefully removed the<br />
nails and called my brother for assistance. To this day,<br />
my bookcase still has scars. *story end* Once you get<br />
the bookshelves, choose a theme or two for each shelf.<br />
Perhaps one will hold the stuffed animals you’re not<br />
quite ready to give away yet (I’m right there with you!),<br />
while the other will actually hold books.<br />
Purchase bookshelves.<br />
2. It may be time to get rid of some things in your room,<br />
like that Rudolph snow globe your great aunt gave you<br />
for Christmas last year, or those cute boots that don’t<br />
fit you anymore. Or that epic Hello Kitty chainsaw.<br />
LET IT GO, MAN. Make it a routine to file through your<br />
room every season and eliminate the junk in your<br />
room. If it makes you feel better, you can give favorite<br />
clothes to younger girls you know or friends who are<br />
shorter than you (a.k.a., me), or items to your local<br />
Goodwill.<br />
Purge.<br />
| 15
CONTINUED<br />
Organized<br />
Ah, how simple is that? It’s<br />
nice every now and then to<br />
Reorganize.<br />
3.<br />
move things around. The other day I was able<br />
to make my room cleaner by placing some items I<br />
don’t use often into my closet. You could also<br />
rearrange bookshelves, shoe racks, or your closet.<br />
4.<br />
Arrange your close by color/clothing item/season.<br />
My closet is the most organized section in my room. I<br />
not only have the clothes sorted by color, but also by<br />
item type. All my fancy shirts are together, as well as<br />
my pants, skirts, casual tees, dresses, pajamas,<br />
swimsuits, and athletic wear.<br />

Most of us have at one time<br />
dreamed of being a helpless Rapunzel<br />
stuck in an ivory tower (Why is the<br />
tower made of ivory? Why not gold? Or<br />
bread? A TOWER OF BREAD!) However,<br />
those days are pretty much over. There aren’t any<br />
princes who are going to come unstuck us from our<br />
problems, so we need to be ready to face them<br />
ourselves. Here are some things you should learn:<br />
Self-Sufficient<br />
1.| Learn self-defense.<br />
2.| Carry pepper spray.<br />
3.| Know how to unplug a toilet.<br />
4.| Know how to shoot a gun.<br />
5.| Know how to shake someone who<br />
is trailing you.<br />
6.| Know how to fix basic car<br />
problems.<br />
7.| Learn CPR.<br />
I’m amazed at the stupid things girls are caught doing<br />
nowadays. They’ll meet random strangers on the internet,<br />
proclaim their true love, and meet them at McDonalds . . . only<br />
for the guy to turn out to be a creepy stalker! Please use more<br />
common sense than this. Never walk by yourself at night,<br />
always lock your car, never give your phone number out to<br />
strange guys, and don’t tell people you’re home alone.<br />

I hope to impart with you some of my best tips on<br />
achieving the characteristics of a South Kakalaki Girl. A<br />
South Kakalaki Girl is, in essence, a mature, memorable<br />
Christian girl who puts others first.<br />
Being a teenage girl isn't easy. Being a CHRISTIAN teen girl? Someone<br />
give me a grizzly bear to wrestle! Despite the hardships, being the<br />
Daughter of the King is a high calling with the struggle.<br />
In this short book, I hope to share a few tips on being the best teenage<br />
girl you can be. I like to call this girl a "South Kakalaki Girl." She's a<br />
mature Christian girl, memorable because of her overall excellence.<br />
Within these pages, I share practical steps to growing in your Godgiven<br />
creativity, as well as accepting the beauty God has given you<br />
(because you ARE beautiful!). In addition, you will learn to be peaceful<br />
and outgoing.<br />
