Jury Considers Britney's Case
http://www.okmagazine.com/news/view/9705

i think this is the last thing poor Britney needs. In the past year she has been through a lot. She divorced her husband, her sister got pregnant, she lost custody of her two children, and she has been in the hospital twice for being insane. Also her trying to have a comeback at the VMA awards tanked, she made a pretty good one again this year. Even though she didn't perform she did win 3 awards, the first ones ever. Now after she is finally overcomming her horrible year, she is blasted with the possibility of jail time. I think that she doesn't deserve it. They are calling her out for having an out of state lisense. This is just a small problem and she shouldn't get a big punishment for it.

tempted - an it girl novel
written by: Cecily Von Ziegesar

Overall this was a great book. It was a very good read and always kept me wondering what's next? The return of Jenny and the fall of Tinsley was jsut what this book needed, Drama! The two "it girls" on campus got stuck in a car ride together for 6 hours going to save their best friend, Callie, who was at a horrible rehab center. She asked her mom for a large check so she could pay off the lady from the miller farm and get jenny off the hook for the fire. Her mom though it was to pay a drug dealer, so she told Callie she was sending her to a spa when it really was a rehab facility. Even though Jenny and Tinsley didnt save Callie in time, the one person Callie never thought she would talk to again showed up and rescued her from death, Easy. Easy scouped her up and brought her back on a small, warm plane. As soon as they landed Dean Marymount was there to tell Easy it was his last time and he alread had a warning about leaving campus, so he is going to get expelled. Even though Callie and Easy both thought they could re try their relationship, Easy being expelled wont help.

Tempted - an it girl novel
Written by: Cecily Von Ziegesar

In this chapter its the Halloween ball. Jenny decides to dress up as Cleopatra. Knowing that each year tinsley has won best costume, she doesn't think she's going to win. Brett warned her that all this was is a popularity contest and so Jenny knew she wouldn't win. As soon as Jenny walked down the stairs to the ball, all eyes were on her. She was the most beautiful girl ever. Her hair curled into a messy updo, a gold and sapphire hairpeice, and her lips covered in deep read lipstick. Her skin was lightly brushed with gold shimmer which made her skin glow against the one white silk strap of her gown. She felt like a sun-kissed Egyptian. Before she knew it she was crowned with the best costume. Tinsley on the other hand was very upset. After winning all the years, including freshman year, she was pretty pissed. A mysterious masked boy came up to jenny and had a conversation with him. She had no idea if he was a junior, senior, freshman, or what. The one this she did know was that he was attractive, because only the cute boys were this bold. They had a nice long conversation and when it was time for jenny to go, the mysterios boy told her that he would tell her tomorrow who he was.

lucky - and it girl novel
written by: Cecily Von Ziegesar

I read the last chapter of this book. Its when Jenny ( the main character) gets expelled from Waverly. Tinsley and Callie and the rest of the popular clique blamed the whole fire on Jenny. At the meeting Dean Marymount decides that jenny will have to leave Waverly immediately and go pack her bags. While in her room packing up the last of her belongings, Easy stops by to say hes sorry. Its the first time they have spoken to each other since he started dating Callie again. Jenny holds back the tears until everything is packed. She then walks down the long driveway to the waiting cab. As she looks back at Waverly and says her goodbyes, Dean Marymount runs to catch up to her. He tells her that the owner of the barn insists that a cow started the fire and no one should be punished. As soon as jenny hears the news she heads back up to her dorm and unpacks all her belongings. Tinsley and Callie hear about the news and Tinsley immediately tries to find another way to kick Jenny out, but Callie has other plans. She ditches Tinsley and wants to go apologize to Jenny.

Angelina: "We're going to have more kids"

Dear Brad and Angelina,

I am writing to you on behalf of your article in ok! magazine saying you guys are going to have more children. I understand that it must be great being a parent. Also its very cool that you guys have adopted kids as well as a few of your own. The world today is quickly becoming over populated. With you guys having 6 kids now and wanting to have more, will impact the world. Also having children can be difficult. It can impact your health greatly. You can catch illnesses from the kids as well as be sleep deprived. Having kids wake up in the middle of the night, having different sleeping scedules, ect. can be hard on yourselfs. Another reason not to have more kids is so one of them never feels left out. Sharing your time between 6 or more kids can be difficult. One might feel the others are getting more attention and that is hard on a child.
