Ok here we go..

Hello, Im Shelby. I was born in Lititz, Pa on December 20th 1990. This makes me 15. I have 2 brothers. One is my half brother and the other one is hole. The sad part about this is my younger brother is the one that is half which is 10 years old. He dosen't know that my father is not his real full blood father. So everytime I talk to him it feels like im lieing to his face. My older brother is 23.. he has a drinking problem and tryes to stay away from my house as much as he can because of my mother that has problems with drugs. My father is the one that works all the time then he has to come home and help me clean the house because my mother is to lazy or high to do anything at all. Me my self.. I got out of the drugs because of what they did to my mother. I told my self that I would not turn in to her. I live in fear of that. I am deeply in love with some one I never see. His name is Travis and he has to work all the time. My father dosen't like me dating him because he is not of our religion. Thats my life .. all happy joy.. joy.

Who/what has been your inspiration?

My inspiration in life will always be God. His presence in my life inspires me to be strong and keep on living, even when I'm tempted to just give up. I can't tell you how many times He has helped me through some pretty awful situations. He is my life support.

Whats something in your life you really value and love ?

Besides my faith, I really value and love people. The love I possess for my family and friends is unparalleled, but I also care a lot for the ones I don't know. I'm one of those silly girls who believes that people need other people to lead happy lives. Not for self serving purposes, mind you. I think that in order to be truly happy we must be positive forces in the lives of our fellow human beings. My life has always been about taking care of people and making a difference in their lives.

I also value laughter. Too often, we take things a little more seriously than we should. I think that we need to be able to laugh at ourselves and the world around us sometimes to really enjoy life.

Now for a little about me.

I'm Lauren. I don't do nicknames. Right now, I'm 16 years old. Although, I'm still young, I know exactly who I am. I'm a girl who is madly in love with God, a writer, a musician, and utterly obsessed with justice and the truth. I realized a long time ago that my grades do not define me, so I'm not at all concerned with them, even if I'm an AP kid. I'm the one who smiles all the time, even when it seems like there's nothing to smile about. I love people, laughter, and possibilities.

Mind you, I wasn't always this optimistic. There was a point in my life where I wasn't happy with myself - a point I refer to as "the Dark Ages." My family has always been terrific, but I was unsure about myself, so I started to hang with the wrong crowd. They weren't into drugs or crime, but they were definitely into being selfish and mean spirited. They made me feel worthless, and not having a strong sense of self at that point, I believed them. I had a 6 month struggle with bulimia because I thought that somehow being skinny would make me love myself... which it didn't. The physical damage was not nearly as extensive as the emotional damage I suffered from hurting myself the way I did. I came out of it with the love and support of my mother. To this day, my dad and my brother have no idea.

I wouldn't have been able to do get where I am today without my mom or God. Both love me unconditionally, and with their love I finally understand that I'm perfect the way I am. Nobody can take away my identity or my sense of self. It has become my life's purpose to help people see the beauty within themselves and see that true friends love them for who they really are.

I decided to throw an Oprah/Dr. Phil question.

What is one thing you find special about yourself? Or something you're proud of?

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

I decided to throw an Oprah/Dr. Phil question.

What is one thing you find special about yourself? Or something you're proud of?

Physically - My butt. Or my hair. Or my eyes.
Emotionally/Mentally - My ability to listen and give advice.

Otherwise, I like singing and dancing ! (:

[Looow]

^ I agree, I like going to you & talking to you about my problems cus I know you won't judge me & shit & you give good advice.

[*StanleyThePanda*]

[marzipan]

another question:

to you, what's the best thing about createblog?

[n00b]

this topic is great.
we don't all get the chance to learn about eachother.
I'm always sad. and I can't contain it. I cry alot and I can't help it.
Im NOT emo, so don't even ask.
I think I'm fat when I'm not
and I'm not very confident.
and I hate my name to death. "lydia"
I also feel stupid on createblog, because I have no friends on createblog.
It makes me feel left out and just... forgotten.

[pshaa.shauna]

The best thing about createblog, I'd have to say was the things I learned how to do here, and the friends I made. Even though this place can be hella annoying sometimes.

[Gypsy Eyes]

What is one thing you find special about yourself? Or something you're proud of?
Physically- my eyes. They tend to change color according to my mood so i think it's pretty cool. I've never met anyone else like that.

Emotionally/Mentally- I guess my ability to be strong for other people, and to comfort and listen to them. As well as cheering them up.

Other than that I'm pretty damn proud of my 2nd place solo in nationals for dance.

Best thing about CB

The people or the things I have learned.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

^ I agree, I like going to you & talking to you about my problems cus I know you won't judge me & shit & you give good advice.

Thaaank you :D

I tihnk the best thing about cB is things like this thread. We can all expose the raw details of our lives with less vulnerable feelings. If i ever said anything like this to my friends, I'd never feel the same around them again. At cB, i feel as if i can tell anyone anything and I wont be judged (Except for those few assholes ) . Just related to, or helped.

[*islandgirl4eva*]

What is one thing you find special about yourself? Or something you're proud of?
I'm particularly proud of my capacity to feel. I'm an extremely emotional person, and I tend to have a lot of sympathy and love for others.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

ALIIIIIIVE.


Thought I'd bump this back up.
Hmm ... questions .. questions.

Question:
What quote[s] motivates you?

"Nobody has your back like you do"
Although kind of negative, it is true in some sort. There are lucky people out there who find someone who truly would risk everything for them, but I've never had that and until then I always think of this quote when it comes down to serious things that may involve me getting hurt or into trouble.

"Once you've taken a couple punches and realize you're not made of glass, you don't feel alive until you're pushing yourself as far as you can go"
It's just very true. You can't be strong until you've been weak.


I sometimes think im unusual, or odd because I find myself thinking about, well, unusual things. At this moment, I can't even explain what I think about, but all I know is after a few minutes of turning these thoughts over in my mind, i begin to wonder if anyone else thinks about this as well, what if its only me that thinks like this, do i spend too much time thinking about things and then thinking about what others think about what im thinking about.

Hmm ..
Hello.


EDIT-
Oh and also, my biggest fear
Is the unknown. What I dont know scares me. For instance, death. Not death itself but what it brings and if there really is life after death and is it happy ? Do i fullfill all my dreams in heaven ? Is there a hell. It's unknown, and that makes me uneasy and scared. No one is really scared of the dark, but the paranoia of what is within in the dark.
I guess also, being alone. Im not sure if it goes under the unknown, because I know what it's like to be alone, and im frightened i might be alone forever.

[pshaa.shauna]

Bella, I have to say, after this thread, I've begun to like you as a person.

What's a "little thing" that puts you in an awesome mood?

[doork]

resurrected thread!

um.

i remember we had one of these a whle back...

My name's Phuc and I'm 14, but I turn 15 in August. I'm silly sometimes and i can be pretty serious, too. I was born in Long Xieng, Vietnam and at about 3, I moved from their to the states. I lived in sacramento from then until last year, when i moved south to the suburbia of Elk Grove. I grew up in poor apartment complexes, but I was a good boy. :D My parents were strict and I don't remember having to many friends. I think it was because I was the fat kid. ...the whores...

I went to a slightly bad school. It wasn't THAT bad though. At about 3rd grade, the school told me I was smart, but I was too young to really grasp the gravity of it. I was more widely known from their on, and got a lot more friends, contrary to the stereotype of everybody hating the smart kid. I helped all the kids with the school work, so I guess that was why. But my social side was also growing.

In 5th grade, I was crazy about this girl who did not like me. I thought we might have something, but sadly, no. She moved away without giving me her number or any contact info. And it wasn't until 2 years later I got back into contact with her. That was the major drama of my elementary days.

Fast forward, and now I like to listen to music and read. I'm on the computer way too much. But this summer, I've been exercising daily, so that makes me feel better about myself. uhhh. i'm bad at describing myself. >.>
