"How do you know if you're who you're supposed to be?"

I can completely 100 percent understand what you're asking. As a matter of fact yes, I did recently come to a point in my life where I wasn't happy with who I was, and I was starting to question the things I was doing, or who I even was anymore.
I'm not sure because I only know from experience but I think that most everyone goes through this every once in a while, usually after you've experienced a lot of change in your life, or when something goes wrong, or you're just having an off month or even year.
You will find yourself, and it may take just sitting back and waiting to see what you're supposed to be, or maybe even to realize you're supposed to be who you are right now.
What I realized was that I wasn't happy with who I was and the main reason behind it was because of who I was surrounding myself with. I found myself forming into other people, and being too dependent on my "friends". I wouldn't make decisions for myself and I pretty much felt lost if that makes any sense.
I ignored the feeling for a while but then it only got worse, and I was becoming really unhappy with everything. I knew I needed change so I stopped hanging out with the people who were causing me to be unhappy, and in that case for me, it was because they were very dramatic and always had some sort of negative comment to say about everything and everyone.
Anyways, long story short, I found some friends who were a lot more confident with themselves and didn't need to bring other people down to make themselves feel better.
So my advice to you, is to take some time to yourself, and think about your life and everything that has been going on. Think about when things started to change, or if they did at all, and think about what you'd like to be different. You might surprise yourself.
It's never too late to change your life, especially now being so young and having so many opportunities.
Goood luck and sorry for the crazy long post haha.

"I've liked my friend for 6 years"

From what it sounds like to me you definitely have feelings for your "friend". I don't know if you've tried to tell him before or not but I think you should tell him. You obviously know him well enough to know you definitely like him if he's been your friend for that long, and that's also probably the reason why you sometimes deny that you actually do like him as more than friend, you probably don't want to ruin the friendship you two have. There is a chance you're risking that friendship but at the same time, you'll never know how you really feel about him if you don't take the chance and tell him you want to try being more than friends. It could end up being the best decision you've ever made. So I say go for it and tell him how you feel because from what I can tell, you definitely like this boy.
Good luck, I hope everything works out!

"I just don't know where we stand"

From what I can tell yes you two definitely have a relationship. Not all relationships have to be the typical "will you be my girlfriend, let's put it on facebook" type of relationship. As long as you two are both on the same page, and it seems like you are then not having it out in the open for all to see or know isn't such a bad thing. Sometimes the reasons relationships don't work out is because other people get involved. So yes in my opinion you two are definitely in a relationship,so congratulations ! Don't worry, it's completely normal for people, especially girls to question the status of a relationship, and sometimes it's uncomfortable to ask the other person where you stand without making things too awkward.

"What is your opinion on the 'hippie kids' "

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking but I think people who you're calling "hippie kids" are cool. Not all of them smoke, but it is true they are steryotyped as smokers. I find that they're easy going and don't get caught up in typical high school drama. That's also steryotyping but that's what I've found from personal experiences. Anyways, main point is that everyones different, and you'd be surprised how different people are than you automatically judge them to be. So introduce yourself to one of the "hippie kids" who cares what your friends think, and you might surprise yourself and make a new friend. ( :

"I've never had a boyfriend and I have never been kissed"

Don't worry at all!
You'd be surprised how many girls and boys all ages have never had a boyfriend or girlfriend and have never been kissed. It may seem annoying hearing other people talking about it, and feeling as if you're missing out on something, but the truth is, your time will come. "The best things are worth waiting for" as people say. Don't rush things just because they aren't happening right away, you'll find someone before you know it. A lot of times when you stop looking things appear right in front of your eyes, many time things you've never noticed before.
You're completely normal and there's no need to be concerned. You will find someone great when the time is right ( :

"Do senior guys ever date freshman girls? And if they do is to because they like them or they're easy? "

Sure, plenty of senior guys date freshmen girls. All for different reasons.
Of course there are the guys that are steriotyped to go after the freshmen girls because they "easier" and there are certainly a fair share of those guys in our school, but there are also plenty of senior boys who date freshmen girls because they actually like them.
You get a good mix of the two categories at our school.

"Do you agree with the 'Aint that Right' lyrics by G. Love and why? "

To me this song is saying to live how you want and don't hold back. It's also talking about love and how you should treasure it.
However people look at songs differently and sometimes get a different meaning.
So in my opinion, I agree with most of this song and how you should live your life and do what you want because it's short and you should take advantage of all the time you have.
Also love is something to be cherished just like he is saying in the song.

"If you dream something, does that mean you actually want it to happen ?"

Dreams can have a whole range of meanings. They can be based on people you've interacted with that day, or what you're thinking about before you fall asleep or just about anything. Sometimes they do have symbolic meanings for things you wish you could do. If you're thinking about something a lot that you don't even realize you're thinking about, this could be transferred into your dreams.
So I'm not sure of your situation and whether or not it is really something you want to do, but chances are, since you are asking me, you're most likely convinced it is something you want to do. But on the other side, don't worry, it could be completely random and meaningless to what you want to do.
What I sometimes do is go to google and search different topics of my dreams to see what they mean. Google isn't always right but it gives you cool ideas of what your dreams mean.
Don't worry too much about it ha.
Good Luck!

"How do I survive advisory ?"

Advisory is what you make of it. I know from first hand experience about what it's like having an awkward advisory. Freshmen year everyone basically sat separately and no one was sure whether or not they should talk to each other. The only way to make it less awkward is to open up and talk to people. Even if you have to make up something stupid to start conversation about, do it. It may seem like you have nothing in common but you'd be surprised how alike everyone really is.
It's going to be awkward at first but definitely introduce or just start talking to people in advisory, they'll recognize that you're trying and give you a chance.
Who knows, you could make some really good new friends.
I know it's intimidating but don't be shy, you've got nothing to lose.
Good luck and have fun with it!

"Any tips on playing hard to get? "

Playing hard to get is tricky because the main objective is to get the person to like you, but sometimes the person doesn't understand the method and get the wrong idea, causing them to not like you.
So when playing hard to get make sure you don't come off as entirely unavailible. Make sure that after you "ignore" or "don't show interest" in the person give the a sliver of hope or interest so they get somewhat of an idea you're interested. If the person doesn't think you're interested at all, they won't try, but if they think you're just harder to get, they'll try harder.
Playing hard to get works most of the time, because a fact of life is that many people want what they can't have, or what is harder to get.
Although, this doesn't always work. Like I said before, some people don't like putting the extra effort in and won't take the hint that you actually like them.
But good luck and I hope it works !

"are you disappointed on the small variety of question types and will that affect your project?"

Yes you are correct noticing that most of the questions being asked are about guy problems but I am not at all disappointed. It just shows that in high school, or our high school at least most of the people dealing with problems are girls, and a lot of their problems pertain to boys. It's also nice because I am a girl so I know a lot more about guy problems and have the ability to answer with more experience.
Great question though ! ( :
