Divorce ........ It Happens all the Time

For those who may not know divorce is the finalization of a marriage. In almost all cases of divorce a judge or other legal authorities are appointed to the couple. Although in some countries divorce is not permitted, which basically means your married to that person for the rest of your life. In some cases divorces can be down right dirty dealing with child support, child custody, and spousal support. In the U.S. a requirement of a parenting plan is needed to prevent the case from falling into the family courts. Divorce rates have increased in the twentieth century, among nations the most common places are the United States,United Kingdom,Canada, and Germany. The issues with dividing property are usually handled by the law of jurisdiction in which the property is located. The types of divorces vary no-fault, which is when your not forced to show proof of fault for either party. At-fault, which requires proof of the other party committing an incompatible act or infidelity. Summary divorce, which means the party meets certain requirements as well as agreements on key issues beforehand. my parents unfortunately never got married so I didn't have the problem of divorce going threw my head. Many children are projects of divorce and that messes up their relationship with their parents and pretty much messes up their life in general. Although most people re-marry and end up finding someone new, which is hard at first for children but eventually gets better. My mom married my step-dad and honestly at first I practically hated the man, we were always going at each others throat, because I couldn't keep my mouth shout. Now we have a good relationship and I can honestly say I love my step-dad now!!! I feel sometimes the worst times can turn into the best, it all depends on how you make the best of it. Everything Happens for a Reason.

Keeping a Friendship "S.T.R.O.N.G"

Everyone has someone to call their friend. Although you might meet a few fake back stabbers as you go along in life, remember to keep your friends close but your enemies closer. Friends keep you strong through the hardest times, when you feel like there's nothing else to do, you can always turn to them. If I didn't have friends I honestly don't know where I would be. I love giving advice but receiving it from someone who you know has your back no matter what is always special to me. In long distance friendships the best way to keep it strong is just communicating on a daily basis, because you rarely see that person. Also being a good friend makes your life fun, good friends have a different kind of support than everyone else, it's truly special. Treat others how you want to be treated. We make the best of ourselves through our actions, so keeping a friend by your side it the way to go.



These are my 10 steps to keeping a good Friendship:

1. TRUST EACH OTHER ENOUGH TO TELL THEM ANYTHING.
2. HAVE THAT PERSONS BACK NO MATTER WHAT TIME OF DAY IT IS.
3. DON'T EVER EVER BE A BACK STABBER.
4. DON'T DATE EACH OTHERS EX'S WITHOUT PERMISSION OR JUST NOT AT ALL.
5. COMMUNICATE ALWAYS, KEEP IN CONTACT ON A DAILY BASIS.
6. TELL EACH OTHER ANY AND EVERYTHING NO MATTER HOW MUCH IT MAY HURT.
7. ALWAYS BE RELIABLE, JUST BE THERE FOR THEM, HEARTBREAKS, ADVICE, AND DRAMA.
8. HAVE RESPECT FOR EACH OTHER.
9. ALWAYS STAY TRUE AND REAL TO YOUR FRIENDS.
10. REMEMBER NO MATTER WHO THEY MAY BE COOL WITH DON'T GET JEALOUS ABOUT ANY OF THEIR OTHER FRIENDS. YOUR STILL SPECIAL TO THEM.(Danielle lol)

Social Networking

When is Social Networking taken too far???? Who really knows I mean everyone has different ways of expressing themselves threw Myspace, Twitter, Facebook, and other social networking sites. Although others feel like it's ok to publicize their private lives and expose their bodies on the Internet, it truly shouldn't be done. For instance, our school had a scandal on Facebook dealing with students from class of 2010, which displayed rumors about many of the seniors, mainly rumors that weren't true. Also for someone to do something so shallow was wrong in my eyes, it basically made it seem like they had no life. Airing dirty laundry that isn't yours isn't right, and even if it is yours, just have enough respect for your self and just keep it to your self.I personally think it's a great way to interact with fellow friends and classmates, especially ones whom you haven't spoken to in years. I also keep in touch with my family threw Myspace and Facebook. Social networking can be fun and that's why it was created, so don't abuse the privileges that we have because it might just mess up opportunities for other users.

Teen Pregnancy

Teen pregnancy is something that many teens go through at a early age, unexpectedly finding out that they are now pregnant. When this happens there is much responsibility that comes along with it. For instance, more work at school, less quality time with friends, and any other extra-curricular activities. It may create an emotional crisis for yourself including shame and fear, you may give in to peer pressure much more than usual. The stress will eventually build up, leading to you telling your parents, and others that are really close to you. Also finding help to support your child, being able to finish work in class, and trying to live your life the way you want. All of this can be avoided by using protection, and making sure the female is on birth-control to prevent pregnancy, or just plain abstinence. The United States has the highest rates of teenage pregnancy and births in the western industrialized world. Teen pregnancy costs the United States at least $7 billion annually. Every year around 750,000 teenagers will get pregnant, and more than 2/3 of all teenagers who have a baby will not graduate from high school.

TYRA'S BACK IN SHAPE!!!!!!

Since the super model Tyra Banks has retired from modeling she has put on a few pounds. Which means she hasn't been worrying about her weight, so she has definitely been in the lime light of gossip. Tyra being the person she is she just didn't care about what the critics said, she also told the Media to kiss her fat a--. Banks felt as though young girls looked up to her because she wasn't the average size 0-3; but with critics calling her names and criticizing her weight that then lowers the self esteem of those young girls, AND TYRA AS WELL. Tyra said, "It's not her weight gain or personal issues that caused her pain, but the sharp words from critics". Although now since her show has started back, Tyra has lost over 30 lbs and living her life fabulously. Previously wearing the sizes 14-16 she is now a sexy size 8, and flaunting her figure vigorously. But after all of this now their criticizing her for losing too much weight. I feel that the media talks about you period no matter what, but this really hurts people, and it shouldn't be done. I personally love Tyra and she is one of my long term IDOLS, I also love her shows "ANTM", and the "Tyra Show". I salute Tyra for being the strong courageous person she is, she's my inspiration.
