How many people do you know that are saving themselves for marriage? I bet its a pretty small number. A lot of people say they are going to wait but then something happens and "poof" they change their minds. I know there are people who truly are saving themselves for marriage because I am one of them and proud of it. I get the cance to call my self RARE. Its great to be different but hard.

 Ive learned that there is absolutely no point in arguing with my mom, even if im right, in the end she always wins. Ive learned that men lie and women always believe them for some reason! It doesnt matter what everyone else says we always listen to the men!!!

(As reported in the Arkansas Democrat Gazette) On August 24th, 2007 U of A's defensive lineman, Marcus Harrison, was arrested on felony charges of possession of a controlled substance, misdemeanor charges of possession of marijuana, and several traffic violations. After his arrest he was "indefinitely" suspended from the team.

So I get up this morning and I get ready for school. Like I always do. Well I walk outside and its raining. So on my way to school it starts to rain really hard. So then I start freaking out thinking that Im going to be late for class, because everyone on the interstate decides that they have to slow down to 45mph.

What has this world become? Its like no one truely cares about any one else anymore. What I mean is no one is willing to help someone else without getting something in return. Its like that saying, you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. Why is it that when someone needs help, oh say a friend needs a ride somewhere, people say will you give me gas money? Instead of saying sure where do you need to go. Isnt that what friends are for? I do realize that gas is expensive and Im not talking about taking all your friends everywhere they need to go, Im talking about picking your friend up from a party when theyve been there too long and need a ride home in the middle of the night.

Ok, yet again i found myself reading the yahoo news, and learned that gas is $100 a barrel!!! Oh my gosh if this continues im going to have to buy a bike! The Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez, said that high oil prices were a cause of a global crisis. But what exactly is this global crisis hes talking about? Hes talking about an energy crisis, meaning that the availabilty to create oil is decreasing. In this same article Chavez said "he will cut supplies to the United States if the U.S. government "attacks" the South American nation again." When he says again hes reffering to the year 2002 where he accused the us of plotting a boungled coupe, which ousted him for 2 days. My question is can he prove it?
