Why should celebrities get the special treatments?

Being a celebrity is something that everyone would want to be.To have one day in their shoes.All that money,cars,mansions,fabulous clothes etc. People only dream to live their dream. Being a celebrity definitely has it's advantages.When I watch the new about these famous people I see them going into clubs for free, skipping the line and also seeing underage celebrities going into bars.I don't know about you, but Its not possible to get in a club if you live in an apartment or whatever would have definitely not have gotten in. "Celebrity" is a stereotype word for a free ride.Why should people with money go into restaurants and other local areas and sometimes not even pay?, because the owner wants them to come more often or tell their celebrity friends to come for a nice meal or to party it up with Paris Hilton.Young celebrities today, have been on out television screens and magazines a lot, and mostly they got in trouble.Is it to get attention or more room on next weeks Daily News.For instance Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Kloe Kardashian, Nicole Richie, and all those other celebrities that have been on the other side of jail bars. Most of those celebrities got in trouble with a D.U.I and sometimes refuse to take a breath test.Paris Hilton got only a few days in jail and later on she got three moths in prison and got out early.Nicole Richie got only three hours for driving on the wrong side of the road.Really? That's crazy.In every state in the U.S has different laws with a D.U.I. In Oregon, the driver can face a licence suspension for 90 if refusing to take a breath or drug test.In California, most of the D.U.I are from drunk driving. They have 10 days after their D.U.I to make a appointmet with the judge.My point is, why should celebrities get the special treatments. We are all human and celebrity or not we should all get the same punishment as a average person who did the same crime.Why should us, as Americans have different laws and regulations just because one has the power and the others might have no say.

Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo ,was a women who had many troubles and heartaches throughout her life. It all started with a bus accident that left her with medical problems.But the accident didnt not stop her at all at the goals and passions for art, and was to be a painter.When she was ready to start to make her dreams come true, the brust and paint made its magic.She wanted to have a meaning to every master piece she created and wanted the world to know. Things seem to be going perfect until she thought she met the man of her "dreams".Things were good for a while when she finds out that he has been cheating on her with more than one womon.Frida found it had to let go.As the movie goes on she realizes that he will never be faithful to her.This was a perfect time to start painting again and not have any distractions. Frida also experienced her sexuality in the movie.In the movie, they describe Frida and as a strong womon who knows what she wants in life with her passion for painting.Frida has always been hurt, not physically but mentally.Towards the end of the movie Frida, realizes that the man of her "dreams" was always the one.He stands by her as she gets very sick. You can tell at the time in her life she was happy, but still had some sadness.Her dream come true when all of her arts of work were being displayed in front of people. As she is there on her deathbed she finally fufilled a dream of hers. Okay, so I've been talking about her love and passion for art through out the movie, but she was a women full of strength.And when she has her up's and down's she always goes back to the man who has her heart. I enjoyed watching this movie ann im sure you will as well. The movie mad me understand Frida, not as a painter but as a person and the meaning of her works. I garentee for you to go to an art museam and look the painting that showed all of her hurt.

Time to leave the nest?

Have you ever heard the phrase "Time to leave the nest". Well , in every teenage persons life we, as teenagers might find it hard to be out on our own and away from having a roof over our heads, a hot meal every night. But, for some teenagers who are ready to face the real world and may find it easy to leave on their own, knowing what their parents have taught them about responsibilities. When we graduate high school its like a golden ticket to the real world. To go out there and start new things and meet new people and take what our parents and teachers have taught us.Even if it's a story about their experience can have some what of an impact on someone. Going out and starting a new life can be scary. "Time to leave the nest" don't always mean leaving your home or loved ones, but it could also reflect on leaving high school and saying good bye to friends who you have shared a close bond for four years. Some students could find it hard to leave high school because they get so comfortable that they don't want to leave. Even though I still have another year in high school, I think about graduating and how my life is going to change once I go to college. Just thinking about leaving high school is a little scary because I ask my self sometimes if I ever will be ready. But something deep inside me says's that everything will be okay. I think that every one can relate because thousands of teenagers are graduating and going off to college, or getting your fist apartment, or just starting off their careers. Starting off new can be challenging, but, in one way or another we have to spread our wings and go out and experience the world and what it has to offer us.
