I Stand With Kesha

I Stand With Kesha

Imagine having to go to work and face horror or something so terrible. Seeing someone who caused you physical or emotional pain. Imagine having your life spiral out of control because of one event.

I stand with Kesha. By no means am I saying I am a feminist. I am not saying that I am going to support every internet debate, every court case, but this one I 100 percent do. Now, you may not agree with me, but this is my opinion.

I could not imagine going through such emotional stress and have to relive it with the same people over and over again. I would never want to be in that position where I was so confined and someone denied me.

Kesha is now being forced to stay in her contract at Sony with someone who almost caused her her life. What has society come to? This is teaching people that is okay to make other people feel badly about themselves. This is showing the world that here it is okay to make people feel so badly about themselves they have to go into rehab for an eating disorder. She was sexually assaulted and is still forced to work with the company that did nothing to stop this? Why should she be trapped somewhere that causes her to relive the trauma over and over again?

We live in a world today that people wear shirts that say it is OK to rape people. IT IS NOT! As a women I shouldn't have to walk around afraid that something may happen to me. I shouldn't have to watch what I wear because if I don't then I was "asking for it." I may only be 19 but if this is the world now what will the world be when I have children in the future? Are they never going to be able to leave this house?

I stand with Kesha because her court ruling was wrong. I stand with Kesha because this decision affects all women who have ever been sexually assaulted. It sends out a message that despite the trauma that has happened to any women or even man and they want to take it to court, this could happen. It makes people afraid to come forward and talk about what happened to them. I stand with Kesha along with many others.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
