I'll put it out there. I'm glad I found this website. I want to rant without being judge by my friends.

I'm fairly young, still in college. Well since I was a senior in high school. I've had a friend get married and have a kid. I’ve had one get engaged. * I think she's pregnant too* Another get engaged and just the other day the youngest *who is in H.S.* of our group announces she Prego too.

Is there something in the water or am I the only sensible girl left?
Seriously?! Since these girl met me we've talked about going to college and living life.

Do they realize what they're doing? Grrrr! Marriage is fine. I have no problem with that. But 90% of high school sweethearts end in divorce! What happened to new age woman? Getting a career, starting a business, taking care of themselves before a man or child?

I remember being a kid watching a show called Banana Splits. Frankly, it was boring and I couldn't ever quite figure out what the hell was it supposed to be? Four guys in silly animal costumes playing music and telling not funny jokes. I hated when that show was on because it was terrible. And now - yes - its back.... they are remaking it calling it a classic kid's show. It was classic alright... classic crap.
