&lt;span style="font-family: Courier New;"&gt;There are moments in life that establish who you will become. There are also people in your life that will shape the thoughts you will have. When I was seventeen I realized that without even knowing it, I had blossomed into an adult. Suddenly, I was thinking more about the kind of role model I was to children rather than the who I wanted to model. I firmly believe that children are the future and it is our job as adults to mold them into responsible loving people. On that note, it makes me extremely angry when young stars (who have thousands of youngsters watching their every move) make a fool of themselves. There is just something about the headline "Disney star pregnant" that is creepy and unsettling to me. Scandals like these make me all the more happy to read articles about celebrities who acknowledge the fact that there are small eyes watching them. After all, the media is everywhere. I certainly hope that my children (who do not exist yet) can find a role model that doesn't contradict the premise of "childhood".&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Courier New&amp;quot;, Courier, monospace;"&gt;I've always loved &lt;strong&gt;trendy fashions&lt;/strong&gt;. Wandering around the stores by myself on lonely afternoons is a delight that is calming and fills my appetite for clothes. Holly Golightly in&lt;u&gt; Breakfast at Tiffany's&lt;/u&gt; claims that when she gets the "mean reds" she is instantly calmed down when she window shops at Tiffany's jewelry store. I feel the same way when i &lt;strong&gt;aimlessly&lt;/strong&gt; browse the more fashion forward shops around town. There are some days when a girl can feel scared or sad for no apparent reason. On these days the best thing to do is to put on an inspiring outfit and loose your thoughts in between clothing racks. The best thing about the dressing room is that nobody can see what you look like. That is the exact reason I love to try on the items that look the most interesting on the rack. Never be afraid to&lt;u&gt; take a risk&lt;/u&gt; on that&amp;nbsp;daring&amp;nbsp;combo that you saw in Cosmo last week. Having said that, these are some of the&amp;nbsp;items that&amp;nbsp;are&amp;nbsp;inspiring&amp;nbsp;my Spring wardrobe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
