Too Young

Kids' First Kiss Goes Viral. ABC News. Yahoo News. May 10,2011.

This link will take you to a video of these two kids who have already started kissing. One of them is 5 and the other is 6. The little girl goes in for a kiss on the cheek and then the boy asks why she did it and she said she liked him. That was the end of it for these two young love birds.

Riverwalk Shooting

I was so surprised to hear that there was a shooting so close to my house. Apprentley this was a "love triangle" situtation. The shooter shot a man and a woman and the police shot the shooter who later died on the way to the hospital. This makes me think about my future and how no one knows when their last day on earth is going to be. I thank the Lord for His amazing grace and mercy. Praying for the families of the ones shot and killed.

Preparation

I am now fully prepared for tomorrow's class discussion. I am curious to know how it is going to be with 2 small groups. I am very honored to be chosen as a group leader, but all the pressure on me to make sure the conversation keeps going. I have 10 articles with me. Hopefully this is enough to keep me full of knowledge of what is going on.

Schwarzenegger's Divorce

Schwarzenegger, Shriver separating after 25 years.  Michael R. Blood. AP Political Writer. Yahoo News. May 10,2011.

When I first heard of this, I was watching the news. I couldn't believe how the media makes this seem like it is normal and okay. Just because you have children who are older now and have been married for 25 years, it doesn't give you a right to separate.

Mother's Day

We had a great day yesterday for Mother's Day! I woke up and gave my mom her gift from me. I bought her 2 new shirts and made her a card. The card made her cry, but on the back it made her laugh. Afterwards we all went to church and that was a blessing as always. After church, my grandma came over and we barbecued steak and had baked potatoes, corn, and Hawaiian sweet rolls. Our neighbor's dog was out so my dog went out to play. We then came back inside and had some yummy chocolate cake. We then got ready to go to LA. My mom had gotten tickets to the taping of Simon's new show, The X Factor. The seats we got were amazing! We were dead center stage! Some of the performances were so horrible, but a lot of them were really good. I can't wait to see when it comes out on TV. Those working at the show said we were probably going to be on camera =) It is going to be fun to see if we see ourselves. We didn't get home til almost one in the morning, so I was really tired in class, but it was a great day nonetheless.
