Tonight I watched a movie on Lifetime. I rarely watch Lifetime, but I saw an ad for this movie, and it made me fascinated, so I decided to watch it.
This movie, "The Pregnancy Pact", was inspired by a true story. Back in June 2008, the town of Gloucester, MA became known based on the fact that 18 girls in the high school had become pregnant. The principal stated to Time magazine that some of the girls had made a pact to become pregnant and raise the kids together.
The movie was good, and really gave awareness to the consequences of being pregnant at a young age. My home state, I think, has a high rate of girls who get pregnant at a young age: I have a lot of friends who did, my friend's sister did, and one girl from my home state was featured on the MTV series "16 and Pregnant" and the spin-off of that show, "Teen Mom".
I, personally, have never been pregnant (I'm still a virgin), and plan on waiting until I'm married to have kids. If I decide to have sex before I am married (like if I'm with someone for awhile, then maybe we'll take that step), we will be safe. I like watching shows like "16 and Pregnant" and "Teen Mom" because that's my kind of show to watch. It shows regular girls struggling with being pregnant and being teen moms. It's a good way to raise awareness of these types of issues.
If you would like to watch the shows I mentioned, the season finale of "Teen Mom" is this Tuesday night at 10 pm EST/9 pm CST on MTV, and the new season of "16 and Pregnant" premieres February 16th, 2010 at 10 pm EST/9 pm CST on MTV.
I also thought of something else to fill this blog with aside from my thoughts and Survivor commentary: "Saturday Night Live" commentary. This season has already started, but there are plenty of new ones coming up, and I'll recap any reruns that I haven't already done. I will start tomorrow with thoughts on a rebroadcast episode that aired last night. Then I will do the new episode this coming Saturday.
As I'm typing this, I'm talking to an amazing person: my close friend Jason. He is my lifeline, my pillar of strength and just an amazing person in general. I really like him a lot.
Okay, that's enough of my rambling. Will post tomorrow with a Saturday Night Live recap.
Love y'all,
