Rites Of Passage

I have been through two that I can think of. When I turned thirteen I was not longer a tween but a teen. That experience was not the best for me because I was grounded. But I do remember when I turned 16 and was able to get my license. I was not able to but I still remember being able to be the age to drive legally. I am looking forward to being eighteen because I Can move out. I should be done with school by then and and on my way to college. I am also looking forward to turning 21 so I can sing karaoke in the bar baby......

Imperiallism Have We Gone To Far

I feel we have gone to far with this whole This land is our land not your land. With that I think of the song This Land Is Your Land. for those who do not know it, it goes... This land is our land, This land is your land, From California to the New York Islands... If our land was theres also then I feel there would be no wars. So with that I fell we should back off a lot!!!! Now I am not saying to like give Alaska back to Russia, but we should try to not get involved and try taing things away from other people and just share.....

When I Die!!!!!

When I die I want to be remembered for all the great things I accomplished. The main one I want to accomplished is school. I am planing on going to two schools. I want to have completed running my own strand of diners called Maria's Place. I named it Maria's Place after my great grandma. now what I am about to say is not something I want to be remembered by, but what I want my funeral to be like. Now this is going to sound gross. I want my limbs to be cut off and cremated, half of the ashes to be given to my family, and the other to be dumped into the ocean so I Can travel as I am dead, And the rest of me to be an open casket funeral. I want to be remembered by all the good things in my life not the hard times. Last but not last after my funeral I want everyone to have a huge party in my Honor!!!!!!!!!!!

Censcorship when is it okay?

I feel it is a good thing at times. I understand that they cecncor things on tv lilke the "F" word but that is so kids won't hear it. My saying on that is if your kids are watching shows that they have to cencor language then they are to young to be watching those shows. I do agree with things like parental control where shows are blocked so kids can't see tem without a code. If all parents do that then I feel censorship should end. And like with myspace and sites like that itis only a bad site if you are stupid about it. I feel that if myspace, facebook, and other sited like that were unblocked more people will show up for school. Like I said I feel it is only a bad site if people abuse it.

Teens And Parental Consent For Abortion

Well as most of you know I am against abortion but that is not what this blog is about. This blog is about if a teen who is getting abortion should need to have parental consent. I feel they should but the should not. what I ean byt thi s if your family does drugs and will kill you for having get pregnant then they should not have to know. But if your family is loving and supportive then I feel they should know. I might sound like I am contradicting myself with this but, if you lok at an abortion consent form for a student it reads that teen abortion has an extremly high risk of dieing. Now the oldest recorded death for a teen abortion was in 1927. So as I said I feel it depends on if the family situation is bad then they should not need to know, but if the teen was to die then what would the hospital have to tell the parents?? The lie that they make up could be more tramatic then saying she got pregnant and had an abortion. But read this artical from someone who had an abortion and died. it is sad so bare with me here. Lets just say that docter better have had his lisence revoked after this. According to Milton Helpern, later that day, Lothringer called a policeman who was a friend of his, telling him that he was away on business and asking him to call Roto-Rooter about the stopped-up toilet and to let them into the house.

The New York Times, on the other hand, said that Dr. Lothringer's father discovered that the drains were clogged, and called somebody to come attend to them.

Whoever called the worker in, the man found the toilet backed up, partially flooding the bathroom, and more water in the basement. Investigating the main house drain, the worker found the source of the problem -- pieces of bone and flesh. Somebody called the police, and an investigator took the tissue to be examined.

Soon the authorities had workers digging up the sewer lines from Lothringer's house. They found pieces of Barbara, her clothing, and her baby. The largest fragments were only a few inches long. Barbara had been dismembered and flushed down the garbage disposal and the toilet. Barbara's parents identified the clothing fragments, and Barbara's orthodontist identified a section of jaw with the teeth still in it along with several isolated teeth.

Lothringer, who had already been under surveillance for suspected abortion activities, appeared to have fled the country.

Should Marjuana Be Legalized?

I feel that it should but have restrictions. No I do not smoke weed but I know people who do. If it was legalized then there would be less people in jail for possession of it, and more room for real criminals. The restrictions am thinking of are. It has to be natural no added substances, you can't have more then a 1/4 pound on you at all times, and you have to be educated on the dangers of it, and last but not least you h ave to have to obtain a five dollar license before you can grow it. I know some people will think that is stupid to have a price for it if i is legalized but think about it. The average pot smoker pays about ten dollars for weed, and they pay that a lot. So a one time five dollar payment is not that bad.

How Do I want My Kids To Turn Out

Hypothetically thinking if you could genetically change your child to
be a supper hot supper star would I? would you? Well the answer to that
for me would be no!! I feel if you modify your child they won't live
the life God had intended for him/her. Yes I am religious and I think
Good chooses what you look like, how you act, and how long you live. if
you modify that it is like a swift kick in thears to God. So instead of rambling on about my beliefs I am going to talk about the side affects. It could harm them in the outrun. If it comes down to it if you modify
them what if they are not able to have kids. If something went wrong
and the child did not survive i would feel horrible. So that is myrambling on the subject so think about what you would do.

What I Hate

Hate is a strong word but I really really don't like some things. Okay I understand I am hard on myself a lot but what I don't understand is how some one I thought was my friend who always tells me how beautiful I am and all this can talk so much crap about me behind my back and not think I can hear him/her... Will I ever be able to take a complement again??? I understand I am only 16 years old but still.....I go to church and everyone is like Kelsey you are beautiful when the one person I want there to say that to me does not think it most likely.. That is the only thing I will say I HATE is when people are two faced, and say one thing to your face and the total opposite behind your face. I also do not like when people say I said something I did not say. But the one and only other thing I will say I HATE is when I got blackmailed. I was told my ex friend's mom was in the "loony bin". Well she was not. I was told to tell every one that just so this person would get him mad at me. Well she told him that I started the rummer, and now he sends me harassing e mails. So that is my rant on this subject.

What I Love

The first picture is Bethany Baptist and the second one is east Side Baptist, and the third is me getting baptized


What I love more than anything that I can think of at this moment is my church. I attend Bethany Baptist Church and I love it so so so so much. I love how I can go there every Sunday and Tuesday and even if I am having a bad day it will be a whole lot better once I get there. I know I have friends there and I do not have to worry if they are paying or if they are my real friends. I know if I need advice then I can ask them. I value there love and friendship. I never want to lose them. I also attend East Side Baptist Church when I am with my dad. My dad is the other person I love and value. I know this blog is a bit shorter then others but it is hard for me to put how I feel about these things into words.

Identical Twins

I know many twins weird huh? Well I just happen to know that just because your a twin does not mean your the same person. Lets say that twins are born and are separated at birth. You with me? So one twin goes to a wealthy family and the other goes to a dirt poor family. Are they going to be the same as if they were still together? Well no they won't. You could have twins who where not separated and still not be the same. Just because you look the same does not mean they are the same. One twin could be smart and outgoing, but the other twin could be dark and angry. So as you can see just because you are separated at birth and in different living situations does not mean you are going to be just like your twin or nothing like your twin. Something else I wanted to add was that I have a sister who is five year younger than I am but we are just the same in many many different ways. So everyone is there own person weather your a twin, triplet, sextuplets, or an only child does not make you who you are. Only you can say who you are and are not.

What Do I Value?

The above picture is a picture of my dad and sister Nakya caught off guard. Well I do value my life but I am not going into that whole speech. I mostly value my relationship with my dad mainly because he is the closest thing I have in my life. My dad has been with me through think and thin no matter what the circumstances. as most of you know I almost died this summer in a tragic ATV accident. If it was not for my dads quick thinking (which for him does not always happen LOL) I would not be here today. All I wanted while I was in the hospital was my dad because I knew what he felt and I hurt too. If I am to loose my dad before I get married have kids and do all that adult stuff I think i would die myself. I don't know why but I can feel when my dad is in pain and I don't even live with him. My dad lives in Springfield, Oregon and I live in Salem, Oregon and that is hard enough on me not being able to see him everyday. There is two songs that represent my dad and I. Buckcherry's Sorry. Not the whole song that would be a little weird but just this one part. Oh I had a lot to say was thinking on my time away
I missed you and things weren't the same
Cause everything inside it never comes out right
And when I see you cry it makes me want to die I picked this song because I think about how much I love my dad at least once a day and, when we see each other cry or in pain it hurts us both and we want to die a little bit inside. The whole song that represents my dad and I would have to be. How You Remind Me. Mainly because we had a rough life and if it was not for my brother sister and I he would still be sitting in Prison I think. I love my life so much and I know parts of this song might sound weird for my dads and My song but it really does fit us to a T. I have embedded the song in here for you listening. An object that I value would be a porcelain doll I have. The reason I value it is because it belonged to my great grandma when she was a child, and she means a lot to me. Value can mean a lot of things. To me it is something that is close to me and I never want to loose it.
