Britney Spears!

People say that Britney Spears is a "wack job" or a "freak", honestly I completely disagree. Britney did go through a rough time but hey, who doesn't? Everyone, at some point in their lives, goes through a rough time in their life. The difference between our rough times and Britney Spears' is that she is famous which means, cameras and reporters following her around everywhere she goes which makes her tough time in her life even worse.



The Britney Spears concert that my friends and I went to recently in Greensboro, North Carolina, I think was Britney's way of letting everyone know that she is okay; that she is even stronger than she was before all of that mess in her life happened. The concert was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! The dancing and graphics of the concert was the best part of it and of course the dancing and singing along to "Hit Me Baby One More Time". My friends and I grew up listening to her songs so it was loads of fun being able to reminisce on the good ol' days.



Even though Britney Spears is not the best singer to listen to, she is a marvalous entertainer. Also her music is just a time where girls can let their hair down and sing as loudly as they possibly can to relieve stress or just to sing with the girlfriends in the car.



So the next time people are gossiping about Brtiney Spears and her life, that she is allowed to go through bad times in her life just like we do. Also remember that she is a human being just like you and me.

Stress, Stress, Stress!

269 words.


Stress is all students like me think about, especially during school, sports and personal issues. Between all of the things we teenagers have to think about and deal with, life can be really overwhelming. I know right now my life is very overwhelming. The thing that I don't understand is the teachers the load us up on homework and tests to study for when we have eight other classes and person things to worry about! I just really wish teachers would act like they have hearts sometimes and give us a break. It is hard to believe that these kinds of teachers were ever teenagers because you’d think they would understand how we felt. I guess the only solution to this is we as Christian students will have to look to God to help calm us and to give Him our worries and stresses. God doesn’t want us to stress or worry about things. He wants us to give them all to Him and live our lives with faith in Him that it will all work out. The main point of this blog is let people like me know that they are not alone; God is there. He will never abandon you and He is so ready for you to curl up in his strong majestic arms so He can tell you that everything will be okay.
