It may sound strange but I’ve always been drawn to girls who face the situation of unexpected pregnancy. Though I don’t think the “Teen Mom” show on MTV is ultimately helpful for teen viewers, I have watched it with interest. The story of Catelynn and Tyler should be required viewing.

So it is here, on my own page, that I will unashamedly write to my to heart's content.There will be politics, there will be love, there will be food, there will be movies, there will be running, there will be music. Here you will find me -- at my simplest, at my most complicated and frustrated, at my realest. I wonder how often I'll be able to update, how much … [Read more...]
