The best movie of all time is...(revised #1)
The best movie of all time is "Enough". Oh my gosh! Mrs.Avink I fell in love with this movie when I first saw it. The first time I saw it is when I went into radio shack and it was playing on the T.V. I was so addicted to the movie that my mom had to literally grab me from in front of the television. I love this movie because it's very suspenseful and has a lot of intresting conflicts in it. What makes it even better is that Jennifer Lopez plays in the movie and she is a really good actress. My favorite part out of the whole movie is when she finally fought back at the end of the movie. At first she would allow her husband to abuse her and do whatever he liked. Then she couldn't take the abuse anymore so she fought back with all the strength she had. I love when women fight back. It's shows that they will not let anyone control them or make them feel like trash. The movie also made me cry because it hurt how a man can hit a women and don't regret it. It's just crazy, but if you haven't seen the movie I recommend you and anyone else to rent the movie. Many women should take heed of the movie and learn something from it.

What makes me happy?
What makes me happy? It's funny you asked.I'll tell you what makes me happy. A lot of things make me happy. To start off with, the thing that makes me really happy is the color pink! The color pink is so beautiful and really bright. Seeing people wear pink, treat pink with their utmost respect, and adore pink just puts a huge smile on my face. I mean it just brighten my day to see my fellow Americans love and wear my color. I want to give a shout out to the Breast Cancer awareness symbol because without the symbol the world would be a different place. Life doesn't get any better than this. I tell you Mrs.Avink if you decide to want a simpler life just love pink and I guarantee you that your life will change forever.
Besides my obsession with pink, I think that just living and knowing that God loves me makes me happy to. To know that I have a reason to live and a reason to wake up every moring is so wonderful. It's really an honor to have wonderful and inspirational people around me everyday. I have a second home called Harvest, two extra mothers called teachers, family that are friends, and a man upstairs who I can call on anytime. I am grateful for the little things that I have because many people do not have what I have and many people do not have a second place to call home. I may not have a lot,but I am rich in what I do have.

A glimpse into a teen's mind/world Revise #2
There are many issues teenage girls and guys face these days that are just ridiculous. The general issues are sex, drugs, peer pressure, gangs, and...etc. The main topic that I think teenage girls and guys face in this generation is that many people do not talk about problems at home.
Many girls do not like to talk about their problems at home because it's too personal. Now days girls are having a hard time enjoying the teenage life because of family problems. Some girls do not have a father at home and there mom is a single parent. Instead of them just living a normal teen life they have to take upon big responsibilities that an adult is supposed to handle. They have to watch, feed, protect, and pamper their younger siblings. That is a lot of hard work for a teenager. On top of that they have to do their homework, cook, clean, take care of themselves, and get up early the next day to go to school fully awake. Sometimes the problem is even worse then just nurturing their siblings. Girls are raped and abused at home and not only by their father, but brace yourself for this, also by their mother. A mother may be so overdosed with drugs that she may not be in her right mind. She is so messed up in the mind that she may make her daughter exploit herself just so she could get money or more drugs. Sometimes a girl's teenage life is not a merry-go-round. It's more like a bumpy road that leads up to a fork point. Does she know which way to go? Maybe not, because at home she wasn't raised to do the right thing or maybe she worked mostly all of her life and she is too confused to tell which way to go. So what most girls do is just sit in the middle of the road waiting for someone to come along the same road and pull them by their hand and show them the way. How do i know? I am the girl who lives with a single mother who had to help around the house. I wasn't raped or abused, but deep down inside my life got to a point where I had to ask myself, which way is the right way?
The same scenario goes for the teenage guys to. Most guys have it worst then girls. Some guys do not have a mother or father at home, so they live their life on the streets. The guys who do have a mother may eagerly want a father. They didn't have anyone at home to play ball with them, or a man around the house who taught them how not to hit women. I mean they probably saw their mom get abused, so they take the hint of thinking that maybe a women is suppose to be treated that way. Many guys run away from home, join gangs or attempt suicide because they do not find a use in life. Guys handle their problems differently then women. They do not cry as much as girls neither do they talk to anyone about their problems. They feel that home is cursed with bad vibes and they don't have any way of escaping the life they are living. They just throw away a good life.
Teenage girls and guys are completely different, but with similar problems. Adults do not have a clue what goes on through a teenager's mind. They say they do because they were once young like us, but remember this generation has unlimited thoughts of unbelievable things that are hard to explain. That's why I named my blog "A glimpse into a teen's mind/world". A glimpse is maybe all everyone that's not a teenager will get because no one will fully know what goes on through the minds of us teens.
