Suicide Is Not The Way!!
I saw a YouTube video today about a gorgeous 16 year old girl who committed suicide over bullying and felt I HAD to help spread this message!! I was bullied for years but thankfully in my second year of secondary school the bullying stopped however PLEASE don't suffer in silence, if your being bullied I know your afraid to tell someone in case the bullying gets worse but nine times out of ten if you tell someone it will help you SO much!!
It should be a parent or a teacher but even if it is a cousin, sibling or friend tell someone as suicide is not the way to fix things!! It may seem like the bullies are ruining your entire life and you will never be happy or have friends but I promise you things WILL get better if you are proactive because those bullies will not be there your whole life! If you want to you could immigrate to a whole new country once you have your grades! Use their negativity to spur you on to make you want to do better!! Because the only way to win is to succeed!!
Spread the word! Suicide is NOT the way!!
We're ALL beautiful to some people and ugly to others because beauty IS in the eye of the beholder!!!

Spain Are Crowned Euro 2012 Champions!
I think we all knew it was coming but yesterday Spain defeated Italy a whopping 4-0 making them the first team to ever win the Euro 2012 twice in a row, as Spain went to collect their cup to put in their trophy cabinet next to the Euro 2008 cup and the 2010 World cup, Balotelli had stormed off down the tunnel furious at Italy's loss. Can you blame him? Italy had progressed further then anyone would have ever believed in this Euro competition so to fall at the last hurdle must have been devastating however storming off is a very childish thing to do Balotelli! No one likes a sore loser suck it up and be graceful in defeat!!
The game was dominated by the Spanish but all the same a very good match to watch! The game summed up the competition and the International footballing status at the moment as Spain have been dominating the footballing world and with NO strikers! Very good end to a very good Euro competition! England next time maybe? Ha Ha! (You have to have hope I guess)
Let me know what you thought of the match and your thoughts on Spain!!

Chat Rooms Dangerous or Amazing?
There has always been a lot of media attention surrounding chat rooms but with the right knowledge can chat rooms just be a way to pass time and chat to people around the world or are they just 100% dangerous?
In theory chat rooms are awesome, a place where you can chat to loads of different people from all around the world from your bedroom however as we all know they can be abused by people with ulterior motives that involve more than chatting! There has been a few cases of people meeting up with people from chat rooms and have ended up in dire circumstances, the majority of these cases seem to be young girls so how do we prevent this? Is there a way to make young people safe from manipulation within chat rooms?
I cant help thinking with the right teaching, restrictions and some common sense that chat rooms have the potential to be great!! What do you think? Let me know!!

Is There Such A Thing As Black Or White Music?
I came across a YouTube video today (I will put the link at the end of the post) and it got me thinking is there really such a thing as black or white music? Yes traditionally Rap and Hip Hop are associated with black people where as Rock and Country are associated with white people HOWEVER in the 21st century is there room for such stereotypes?
I have an incredibly wide music taste i will listen to Classical, Country, Rock, Pop, Reggae, Rap anything that has a good beat and meaningful lyrics nevertheless I am a white teenager growing up in London therefore the main genre i have grown up around is hip hop and rap but is this not allowed due to the fact they are "black music"? Just like my friend who is black and loves rock, is this not allowed due to the fact it is "white music"? I find it difficult to comprehend that we are still battling with stereotypes and being constricted in to certain ways of life due to the colour of our skin! Are we as a human race not passed this yet?
Although musical taste is usually highly influenced by your culture and the environment in which you grow up in there are NO restrictions on music as it is something that has always managed to seep through all races like a guy in the video said "Good music is undeniable"
What is your opinion let me know!

Adele is Pregnant!!!
The award winning British singer has announced that her and her boyfriend Simon Konecki are expecting their first child!! I am incredibly happy for Adele as she comes across as so down to earth and in the music industry for the MUSIC not the fame that comes hand in hand with it!
Adele has asked for people (mainly paparazzi) to respect her and Konecki's privacy as they prepare to become parents and have a mini me running around which I think is perfectly reasonable and should be respected by the paparazzi!! Of course we want to know what is happening throughout the pregnancy however that is up to Adele's discretion.
I wish Adele all the best of luck (not that she will see it) LOL! :P and I am going to guess that it is a girl :P
