A/N: So I finally got the Season 1 DVD hence the inspiration/ability to continue this. I've decided to do the episodes in order - one reason being I only have season 1 at my disposal currently and another reason being Paige, while she remains sassy and wonderful throughout the 4 seasons, really does mature and change, so her column will mature and change with her.

Disclaimer: If I owned Degrassi I would not be frantically trying to complete weekend assignments. (In other words, I wish!)

Dear Paige,

My friend showed up from summer with a whole new look. We used to be really close, but now she's all about appearance. I don't know how to tell her she's acting like an idiot. That's not true. I do have one idea. I could write to her new advice column!

A Concerned Grade 8 Friend

Dear "Friend,"

Whatever. You are so obviously jealous of the "new look, new Paige." Hun, green is so not your color. Try to tone the envy down, okay? Someone might mistake you for Heather Sinclair.

Remember, I'm not mean, I'm right.

Cuddles!

Paige

Dear Paige,

I can't take it! The Grade 8's are everywhere: harassing us about made up hall passes, stepping on our papers, throwing spit balls, dragging us down hall ways. How can we survive our first year at Degrassi and stay sane?

Lowly Grade 7

Dear Seven,

Sweetie, grow up. Junior high is not supposed to be fun. Unless you're popular, like me. For the rest of you, so I hear, it's a horrible time to 'find yourself' and 'be awkward.' Every grade 8 went through this their first year. If some 8's are immature enough to do the same stupid things, just remember that even though you are a year younger, you're obviously more mature. And when you're a Grade 8 try to be the bigger person. Or you could be smart and blackmail them.

Remember, I'm not mean, I'm right.

Cuddles!

Paige

Dear Paige,

I am stuck in a forced living situation with my dad's girlfriend and her daughter; let's call her Mary Poppins.Mary truly is 'practically perfect in everyway' and it's driving me crazy. She constantly reminds me that it's her house, her bathroom, her family and that Degrassi is her school. I want my dad to be happy, but I can't stand to be around her another moment! Help!

Annoyed by Perfection

Dear Annoyed,

Trust me if there's someone who's sick of a person being as scarily, sickeningly wonderful at getting what she wants as your stepsister seems to be, it's moi! (Yeah, yeah, not your stepsister. Whatever.) You should meet my friend. I'm sure Mr. Raditch would like me to say something helpful like deal with Mary P; you're a family now, but my personal motto has always been don't get angry - or annoyed, either– get even! I've even got a couple suggestions on how to do so! You could (EDITED BY GRAPEVINE STAFF) or you could (EDITED BY GRAPEVINE STAFF). If none of that works you could always (EDITED BY GRAPEVINE STAFF).

Mr. Raditch, I am so trying to be helpful here! Fine. Find something your pseudo stepsister really wants and then sabotage – I mean - help her with it. Nothing says family like working together. Except buying a really expensive gift, like a purse, for that sister. Dylan, this means you.

Remember I'm not mean, I'm right.

Cuddles!

Paige
