Aarons Party

I have only been to 2 concerts in my entire life. Brittany Spears and Aaron Carter. I know its pathetic, but its true. Aaron Carter was my first though. I was so pumped to be going to his concert. I legit wanted to marry the kid. I knew every word to every one of his songs. I had even made a sign that said Aaron marry me... I was a weird kid. My mom knew the sound manager at the concert so I had really good seats, and when I say 'good seats" I mean it I had first row seats.

I loved Brittany

Im obsessed with Brittany Spears, I always have been. I have every CD she has i have clothes with her on it, I have gone to her concerts. Im a devoted fan! Well one year I had a cheerleading competition in Destin, Fl. I knew she had a house there and I had ever heard rumors that she was in town. I was determined to find her.. Which would be pretty hard considering i was only going to be there for 2 days and Destin is a very big town. So after i had competed on the last day we went driving around shopping just doing little things like that, well in front of us at a stop light was no other than Brittany herself. she had a shiny silver convertable. I started crying, I was so excited. I made my mom follow her for 20 minutes (what a good mom) finally Britt pulled into the subway parking lot I was so excited. She got out of the car with her mom, sister, and some boy. I proceeded to follow them into Subway. I was so nervous. I made my mom ask her to take a picture with me. she did, but Brittany wasnt really what i had expected she had some really bad acne and she is alot fatter in person and the girl is a straight up bitch. I was heart broken. I had idolized Brittany for like 6 years then when I finally got to meet her she wasnt anything I had expected.

That party last night was awfully crazy

High school rivalries are always really fun. They were even more fun for me because I was a cheerleader we lived for rivalry games. My high school's rival school was Webb school of Knoxville. We hated eachother absolutly despised eachother actually, we were always picking fights with eachother and messing with eachother. Well one Friday night we were playing Webb in basketball. As a senior it was my last webb game so me and a few seniors decided to be really rebelious and we drank before the game (stupid decision) haha 5 of us were drunk and cheering in front of both teams it was hilarious. Sadly Catholic lost the basketball game, needless to say we really didnt care to much. After the game we heard that there was going to be this really big party at one of the webb guys house so of course we felt the need to make an appearence. On the way to this webb party we made a few stops at some other parties and continued to drink. At around 12 we finally made it to the Webb party. Everyone knew we were from catholic considering most of us still had our cheerleading uniforms on. We were only at the party for 20 minutes everyone was dancing and having fun.. then in the distance I hear someone yell COPS!! i took off sprinting out the door with only my cheerleading uniform and uhgs on.. The door I had tried to run out only led me to a fence so i ran back in and tried to hide in a closet. well the closet didnt have a door. I sat in the closet trying to hide from the police that were scraming all over the house. The cops walked back to wear i was sitting and they laughed at me. they took me by the hand and said you need to come out here. it was so embarassing. All the rest of the kids were all face down on the floor and here i come walking out with a catholic cheerleading uniform on. it was awful. All the cops were yelling at us it was so annoying. They gave us all a sobriety test.. I failed. They put me in hand cuffs and threatned to take me to jail somehow i convinced them to let me call my mom. My mom came and got me. When i got in the car with my mom she had the radio on. The song that was playing was "i love college" by Asher Roth.

Spiritual Inventory

Spiritual Inventory

Do you have a spiritual belief or practice? Yes! Im Catholic

Is belief itself a problem? no!

How important is tolerance of differing beliefs in regard to this topic? I respect other people's beliefs but I am a devote Catholic

Do you believe in a divine being or higher power? yes

How do you relate (or not) to this concept of a higher power? I believe in the holy trinity of the father the son and the holy spirit.

What is the relationship between the physical and spiritual world? Jesus came down to earth in the physical form he died for our sins. he resurrected from the dead and is seated at the right hand of the father in heaven.

How important (or not) is spirituality to your personal identity? It is very important

What is your attitude to people whose views on spiritual matters differ from your own? I mean Everything I believe is stated in the bible.  but i respect other people beliefs but thats as far as it goes.

Do you believe your spiritual beliefs (or lack thereof) continue to change over time or generally stay the same? What is the importance of change or its lack? It stays the same. I was taught the teachings of the catholic church. And what the bible says there is nothing to change about what i believe.

Memoirs

The first memoir that we had to read about war was interesting. There names were interesting, but the narrator gave pretty good descriptive details about what was going on, and how everyone he was with felt and their emotions about the war and how they felt about their country being taken over.
the second memoir is weird the old man in it doesnt believe in television which is pretty weird. I dont really understand how one doesnt believe in television. Its not really something you believe in or dont believe in. its kind of just there. I understand people not wanting to watch it, but you cant not believe in it. That just doesnt make much since. There are so many things that you learn from the media. Society is constantly changing due to the media so if you "dont believe in tv" then maybe they dont believe in media so therefore they arent conformed to the standards that the media has for everyone else.
I love Mick Jagger. therefore I loved this short story. It kind of reminded me of stuff my mom used to do back in the 70s haha. Girls back then were crazy. They just did alot of drugs and hooked up with everyone. I mean whatever floats your boat.

History with writing

My history with writing began along time ago.. Considering I learned to write in kindergarden id say im pretty much a pro. All through out school I have had to write. Weather im writing papers for a class, passing notes in school, or taking lecture notes, its all forms of writing. When I was little I used to write stupid little songs and my mom used to think I was going to become like famous for my songs. She even bought me a guitar for Christmas and was like keep writing songs. I haven't written a song in 6 years..  After September 11th happen my teacher made us write a poem for english class. I got an english award for the poem i had written. I dont write often anymore unless I have to, but i do enjoy it, and thats my history with writing!
