I guess you're both lucky and unlucky, huh?

Lol I guess... Probably more lucky. Lucky that I don't mix with the kids I used to mix with, and I haven't been attacked badly.

All these people in this group talking about their tough life. I live in the suburbs, in a neighborhood with big houses, and in them live mostly middle class people. A lot of them are religious, really religious, too. So all in all, I can't imagine it.

Uhm... I don't think saying 'brown' is the right way to describe people. I get that people can be scary, but you shouldn't really link it to their race. Also, the guy who killed the boy was white. It's got nothing to do with race.

ha lol

it's black, not brown, and it isn't nice to describe people like that.

Now I understand.
Don't worry, be happy:)

LOL

A murder? GET OUTTA THERE!!!!!

Absolutely love quotes. I could go on and on, saying my favourite quotes.
But no matter how much I love them, they confuse me.
Confusion is ridiculous.

Quotes confuse me because some of them contradict with others. Especially if they involve philosophy or God. Or love. Or family.

"Diamonds aren't a girl's best friend - her mother is." My grandma told me. And I totally agree. That doesn't confuse me. Gosh, I love my grandma.
-

Not everything confuses me, and I find that the simplest things are the best things in life. Mainly because they don't confuse me.

For example, do you ever wish you were different? Prettier? Smarter?
What is being pretty? That's confusing. What is perfection? It's not a simple thing. All I know is that every girl doesn't like something about herself. It's usually about how she looks, but if you're one of those rare people like two of my best friends who are happy with their appearance, then it could be something else, something not so physical.

I'm glad I go to the school I go to sometimes. Most of the people are educated enough to know that everyone is different, and therefore may look different. And when someone comes along who isn't, they get attacked. If I went to a 'normal' school, I'd probably hate myself more.

But when I think about it, people shouldn't care about things like that. And even though I'm pretty self-concious, I know that there's enough room in the world for variety. We see people, and think, I wish I could be like that. Whereas, what we don't see is that other people look at us that way.

I only thought about this now.

We may think we aren't lucky in the looks department, or in smartness, or braveness, or we might think we don't act cool. Or we're not good at this or that.

But we're blessed in other ways.

It's probably about three quarters of the population of the world who want to be like us. The hungry. The abused. The sick. The scared. And some people may have started out with a good life, and ended up in a mess. That's even worse.

My dad told me, "Poverty isn't to be ashamed of - it's not doing anything to get out of it when you had the oppurtunity." And he knows what he's talking about.

I think I understand your points here. I have no problem with contradicting quotes. I mean, I'm so contradictory myself, and so is almost everyone I know. Think about it, how people can be so SWEET one moment then so MEAN the next.

Yeah. But I find that if someone is nice to me one time, I will think they're very sweet, until they go back to being mean again. I'm just sick of that.

22 Hours left. 22 Hours until I do the strangest thing I've ever done in front of a load of people.

22 hours left until I take over the stage for a few minutes. They said in rehearsal it was good. That I should be taking drama for GCSE.

I wish people would stop telling me what to do... Then I wouldn't be in the confusion I am now.

-

It's just finished raining. The drops of rain were hitting the ground like tiny grenades, causing tiny splashes which must be like massive explosions to ants and other insects.

I wanted to go out in it, but didn't have the energy. The energy to be fearless for a change.

There's a strange silence in the air after it rains, as well as a strange smell off the pavement. So pure and beautiful.

There is no such thing as fearless. Everybody has fear.

I like the way you described the feeling after rain.

Fearless is still having fears. But it's being able to not let them get in your way.

That was a very relaxing entry, Sarah. I think the feeling will stay with me for the better part of the day.

Pirl, there are certain things people are fearless about. I wouldn't say there's no such thing as fearless. I would agree though that there's no such thing as a fearless person.

what's GCSE?

The public exams students across the UK take when we're 15/16.

OK. Cool.

Hmmm. I wonder if it's anything like the CAHSEE.

Sunday 1 July, 7.00 pm.

I DID IT! OH MY GOD.
It didn't fail. People actually said it was good.

YES!

I'm so happy that I'm still shaking. So happy. I don't feel like a total idiot after playing a hallucinating person on stage. That's got to be a good thing.

-

But how can someone feel so happy when someone else is crying? His poor family. Poor boy. SO sad. I think I knew him.

Once.

It was only the day before yesterday. He was walking home from school. A Friday afternoon, getting ready for a great weekend, I'm sure.

Only twelve years old.

Stupid, maybe, for jumping out into the road. But still innocent.

And they said there was a massive bang when the car hit him, and he flew six feet into the air. Suffered major injuries. The car driver was distraught. So were his friends.

And the boy was pronounced dead in hospital later.

It all happened only a mile from my house. On the road I go through everyday. My friends were his friends. I think I knew him once.

Innocent lives lost all the time. Why does God do this to us?

:00 Omigoddess. I am gonna go cry now.

:00 Omigoddess. I am gonna go cry now.

I know. It's really upsetting. :'(

:..(..............

I don't know how to react.

It's good that you felt good about your performance, though.

Sarah, I'd like you to remove a person who has been commenting on my blog, being antisemitic and racist against my people, not to mention what she said against Israel.

Who is this? Sorry, I haven't been following your blog.

Gemma.
It's OK, you don't have to if you don't want to.

Wow. That's all I have to say. And don't worry, being a Jew is awesome ;) I'm not a Jew myself, but the religion is so interesting.

Hmm, I've just read your conversation. I don't really understand what she's trying to get at and I'm not even from Israel or nor am I a Jew and I find it offensive. I think it's due to ignorance.

Yes, and I'm upset. Something has to be done!
Thank you. The Big Bang Theory is awesome, BTW. The show. The theory itself is OK.

Don't worry - I'm doing something about it. I can't stand racism.

thank you.

Taylor Swift said that exact thing! Totally agree!

Taylor Swift is awesome.

LOVE TAYLOR SWIFT!

This is like her best quote:

"Be that strong girl everyone knew would make it through the worst, be that fearless girl, the one who would dare to do anything, be that independent girl who didn't need a man: be that girl that never back down." - Taylor Swift

I like Mean better.

Taylor Swift is one of those rare celebrities who has all the good qualities - she can sing, she writes her own songs, she doesn't sing about sex and drugs and stupid things, she's not a bad person, and she's got a good personality. I love her.

Yes! AND she chased her dreams and managed them, not to mention she writes quality stuff.

Toats. I'm learning to play the song Last Kiss on the piano. And don't listen to Never Grow Up unless you feel like crying.

Haha I cried the first time I heard Never Grow Up.

She just teaches such good messages. And do you know she only drinks out of a water bottle, never a glass, because she doesn't want her fans to think she drinks?

She is one of my idols. Along with Julie Andrews.

Haha Julie Andrews is awesome :) An yeah - Taylor Swift is brilliant.

Mary Poppins 5ever!!

I don't know who that is... but Taylor, and Emma Watson are my idols.
