to move on is to grow

I'm having the biggest brain fart ever that i wouldn't even be surprised if a few kids in a 5 foot radius of me could actually hear it. this morning when my dad came in and woke me up at 6 i was initially mad before i realized that it was Monday morning..my favorite. the only reason I'm happy its Monday is because I'm that much closer to getting my paycheck on Thursday. since i took a week of I've been basically broke for days and it slowly killed me. random ADD moment but i really need to get myself a new bathing suit since my favorite one broke in august. i was looking at some of the ones in the Victoria's Secret magazine i have but they're waaaay over priced for the most part. i found a pretty cute one at target which i will most likely go back for. Lindsey is sitting next to me blogging about some concert she went to as a sit and stare at my screen biting my nails. yes i no its a bad habit but we all got a weakness..my is anything on my nail that i feel needs to be removed. the Asian woman at the nail salons hate me, i swear the only English they ever say to me is "you bite nails that's baaad!" now linking back to the part about Lindsey i can't wait to go to another concert. maybe ill go to warped tour again this year or possibly bamboozle, I'm not sure yet. i know I'm definitely going to XTU though in a short bus painted green (yea riding in style i know its OK to be jealous). wellll i honestly can't think of anything else with out my head hurting so I'm down for now. hasta luego

i honestly cant think of anything to write about today. I try to focus on school stuff but its becoming harder and harder to do. take a classic case of seniorites and mix it with the loss of a mother and missing a lot of school and that basically equals my attention spand and will to do things on my first full day back. i want to catch up with all my work and eventually i will but for now all i want to do is just sleep and hang out with friends. My friends and family have all been so amazing in this hard time and its overwhelming how much love myfamily has been shown. i usually write more but likei said i don't really have the will power so this shall be all for now (plus i have notes to catch up on).

Bad Decisions

Why do good kids sometimes make bad decisions with their friends? Yes it may be because of peer pressure but mostly its just free will. In the years between puberty and adulthood kids are constantly searching for who they are and many of them can be easily influenced by friends just but being around them. If your friends curse a lot you may start cursing a lot just because you hear it all the time. Plus every kid wants acceptance and if your hanging out with a cad crew you might feel you need to do some things you wouldn't normally do to earn respect.

Though for most kids its just their free will to do bad things. They choose to drink or do drugs just because they want to. Teenagers are all about experimenting, learning what they like and do like, but yes friends do also influence that as well. I have friends who like to do drugs and i love them and all but i don't like some of the things they do. According to this survey i should not be trusted because of my friends but i know better because like i said, its free will.

“The lesson is that if you have a kid whom you think of as very mature and able to exercise good judgment, based on your observations when he or she is alone or with you, that does not necessarily generalize to how he or she will behave in a group of friends without adults around. Parents should be aware of that.” How i act and speak in front of my parents is different then how i act and speak in front of my friends but that doesn't make me a bad person. My parents trust me to make good decisions even though they make not like my friends. I feel like according to Dr. Steinberg, parents should keep their kids on a leash until they go to college. Its absurd and ridiculous.
