I can't get my background to load. it's pissin me off. i swear, all the ones that i want to do, don't work. i just don't get it. Well, i guess i better tell holly's story because my buddy really wants to hear it. I'll try to keep it short: So, holly's parents are goody-goodies right? but there are tons are parents that are. It's pretty normaly for parents to be strict, but her parents are way out of line. It's horrible. Let me explain a few things first. Holly and i love shows. Music is pretty much our life and going to shows is one of our favorite things to do. Her parents never realy liked them (mine dont' either, but they let me go) so, they decided to come to one. Sadly, i wasn't able to go to that one, i wish i could have so i could have been there for her. While they were there i guess they saw some people kissing and people were smoking. Which is normal anywhere. They claim they saw drugs being dealt, but i don't beleive that. They got all pissed and dragged holly out of there. The next day there was another show. It was her brother's last show (he's in a band). So, this is the last time she'll be able to see him play in that band. Which is sad because the band kicks ass. I would be devastated if that happened to me and i know for a fact that she was damn mad. Her parents did decide however to go to their son's last show. They were so disgusted that they had to leave becuase jake was flipping people off and grabing himself and people were throwing their "under garments" on stage. (that was the first time i've ever seen it happen. i think it was just becuase it was their last show, so, they had to do soething worth while for the guys!) Since then, it has been hell for that family. They went through holly's and her brothers room and took all of her cds, her cd players, and anything else they didn't like. They even took her brother guitar and amp. For chirsts sake, they pretty much took his life away. He bought those and they didn't approve of them, so, they took it away. Which is ridiculous becuase he's going ot be a rockstar. Everyone knows he'd be the only one good enough to actually become soemthing. They also told holly that she couldn't wear black anymore becuase it's gothic and that she can never go to a show again becuase they're "bad". It pisses me off! This is what they told her one day, "holly, you should be preppy. those are good kids." those weren't the exact words, but they were close enough. They won't let her be what she wants. And they say taht jake (her rockstar brother) was a mistake and they messed up on him. I don't even understand it becuase holly is such an amazingly good kid. Last tri she got a 3.89 grade point average and she has never done drugs in her life and she has never gone further than makin out. She doesn't do anything wrong and she doesn't anything to make them not trust her. But they ahve ot be assholes and think she's not good enough. they're trying to take away everything she is and make her someone she's not. god, they make me mad. They won't even let her come to my house that much anymore because she needs to be home more. When she's home all the time!!!! she's a good person and she makes good choices. She deserves a lot better then them. I feel so bad for her. I love her to death, but there's not much i can do. I wish i could do more. i just know one thing. i'm really happy that i have friends that i love to be with. holly, nicole, ber...those are probably the ones i hang out with most. but then there's always sarah, linds, nat. man, i love them all like no other. no clue what i'd do without then. they have got to be some of the best peole our there! and they're all funny! it's great! :) i need ot hang out with them more. i can't wiat till summer.
