living as a teenager;

Many teenagers love to date boys when they are so young. I've talked to adults and they always tell me "I wish I would of not dated, & just hung out with my friend". When you are young, you have so much time to focus on yourself & have fun. You will have a lot more experiences if you are not dating someone. When you are dating someone, most of the time, you are hanging out with them. You don't have time to go do fun things with your friends, go on fun group dates, & just have fun. Lots of girls(not all of them) will ditch there girls to hang out with there boyfriends, & then their friends don't really want to hang out with them anymore. & you don't want to loose your best friends.

In my religion you are advised to not date till you are 16. I had always thought that the rule was too much, and it wasn't worth it. That was till I had a boyfriend, it was fun and all, but I had so much more fun just hanging out with my friends, and having fun. Boyfriends & girlfriends are fun for a while(when you are young) but then they start taking up a lot of time, and you then can't hang out with your girls(or guys).

Tyler Ward said "You need to date a man. Just because he can shave, doesn't make him a man". Boys are not ready to commit, and they just like to date you for fun, or to fool around(in any way). When you date a man, they are ready to commit & they love you & only you. They will not cheat, they will not play you, they will be there for you.

Date a man that will be there for you at 2AM when you are crying on the floor, when your dog died & at 2PM when you love life & want to go on silly adventures. Date a man that loves you even with all your flaws. I love the quote "Take a lover that looks at you like, maybe you are magic". I love that so much, because there are men out there that are like that, & only love you & only you.

When you break up with someone, please try not to hurt yourself, cry(for long periods of time) because the best revenge is to be happy & to go on with your life even if they are not in it. You feel so much better about yourself when you just move on, and don't worry about what they are doing. It is a good idea to throw away their stuff that you had, if you are trying to move on and forget about them. If there are objects that remind you of them, please throw them away. No matter if people say that you are a drama queen, you are not. You are trying to get rid of all of the bad memories so you can move on.

I advise girls to really wait to date men, because you will have so much more fun, I promise

leggings, leggings. leggings;

For a long time, I never wore leggings, I only wore Jeans. My sisters would always be wearing leggings and I thought that it was strange. About a six months ago(at least) I started wearing them, and now I only wear them. It's strange when you see me wearing pants. Now I know what people mean, all those quotes about leggings are true!!  So, at first I was just wearing normal black ones, and of course I had twenty of them. Then I started winning leggings and people were giving them to me. That is when I got addicted. I have always wanted to try Lularoe, because some girls I went to EFY with always wore Lularoe, and they modeled for them all the time. The thing was that it is pretty expensive. I had been following a lot of the Lularoe consultants and looking at all their products. I was also trying to win contests and save up, and I finally won a ten dollars off to Lularoe. With the ten dollars off I bought Lularoe Leggings, finally. I was so excited when they came. The mail man pulled up and I was so excited. Right when it left, I booked out to get my hands on my Lularoe. When I tried them on, I couldn't believe it, they were so soft! I wear them all the time now. Plus, they are super cute! They also fit small through large. I'm so excited to buy some more of their products.

Jail;

A couple of days ago, my friends and I went to the county jail on a tour. It was very interesting. We were able to see where they sleep, ate and everything else. When we walked past the prisoners, it was very sad to see, but also really cool. It showed me that we need to be grateful for our amazing parents that teach us the right things to do so, we won't end up in there(well at least my parents do).
They talked to us about how the prisoners earn fifty cents a hour and it costs three dollars to call their parents. It smelled so bad, and they have to shower in front of everyone and go to the bathroom in front of everyone. Closer to the end we saw the murders, the child abusers, and the rapists. It was really sad because they can only come out an hour and thirty minutes a week, and they are alone in the room.
After that, we got to talk to some of the prisoners and hear their story and how it all started. First, the security officer showed us pictures of her from when she got arrested for the first time and I didn't even realize it was her. It ruins your personality and all of your facial features. The first was a cheerleader, and loved life, and she decided to go to a party and start drinking. She said that her addiction to meth and all the drugs started with weed. She said if she could do anything she would of not started taking pills and smoking.
It's so hard to come out of doing drugs, because it is so addicting. When you do drugs you loose everything from your family, to money, to everything, you don't even look like yourself anymore.  It's scary, it makes you not want to do anything bad(not that I did before). You feel so bad for them and all you want to do is be there for them, and help then whenever they need it. They say that they want to change and inside they probably do, but it's so hard for them to stop after doing it for so long.
 I am so glad to be raised by my amazing parents , and to be a part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It helps you be a better person, go to www.lds.org and you can find out what we are about.
