Teenagers

For girls, I think it depends where you come from your backround. I think if you live in the suburbs you may face different challenges than someone you lives in the Ghetto of Chicago (inter-city). Girls face some challenges now a days that are different from girls in 60's,70's, and 80's. If you live in the city, girls face peer pressure to join gangs or being afraid of getting jumped. Maybe suburben girls or different types of girls my face weight issues, or popularity issues. Over all Girls from different parts of the United States face the same probelms. They just think they have nothing in common because some people don't give the time or day to get to know the other person.

For Inter-City boys, they face getting jumped or getting in gangs. More of Inter-city boys are now being more pressured into joining gangs and what ends up happening is that someone ends up being killed. From that I have asked some guys what's the point of being in a gang? and some of them say that for the love, the friendships, or just for the perks but when it comes to some of them going to jail. Some of there so called friends don't visit them at all and if they do its maybe once. Also, when one of them die they spray paint there name on the wall or put flowers where that person died. Maybe a week later you see no flowers there anymore they just forget and only some remember. For some suburban boys and this also goes for all boys too but its all about the girls how many girls they get but also thats only for some boys.

Chicago, Chicago,Chicago......

My life in Chicago has been good. I love it here. If I had to move somewhere else It would have to be a city because am a City Girl and always will be. Chicago has its perks and has its down sides too but when it comes down to it there's no place I rather be than here. Chicago is amazing in its skyscapers, museums, architecture, and lake even though the lake can be dirty and nasty sometimes its beautiful. I remember this summer being at the lake and there were two artist painting.They were letting people watch them paint. One of the painters was painting the lifeguard chair and an umbrella that was lieing there. When I saw the picture it was beautiful. It looked like we were in florida at the beach like a clean ocean water with a beautiful breeze flowing through.
Growing up here as been wonderful. I have great memories here, like when I was about 5 I remember my father playing softball at Humbolt Park he was in a league so we would go after church every sunday and sometimes during the week. All my closest friends father back then was in the league too.I remember going to the games and playing all day getting so dirty having grass stains or dirt stains on my clothes those were the days but I also have some bad memories here to. I can always come back there and remember those days.
I Love the feel of chicago even though I hate the snow sometimes but its gorgeous when its on the trees,also when it first falls down on the ground and no one has touch it with there feet or cars has made an imprint in it thats a site to see. What do I hate about the windy city is the traffic. The traffic is crazy sometimes it takes sometimes an hour just to get to downtown from where I live and it usually takes 20 minutes or so but besides that I love Chicago like Frank Sinatra says " My kind of town Chicago is"

My Answer

This is answering Harvest Musings question. From what I remember there was a muse in The Odessey. So am assuming its from there when odessus was traveling somewhere. He found his Muse.

My Second answer to her blog is that our school is named harvest and you like music. So a musican also or sometimes has a muse for his/her music.
