Does sucsess = money or is it the other way around?

Its been awhile since I thought of a good topic to blog about but it came to be around 9 o'clock last night. That was when the Freestate girls basketball team defeated the lawrence high girls varsity team. It was a close game but no doubt the freestate girls were better and im not just being biast. One girl on our team is 6'5". thank god your not that tall right? I mean shes got game and talent but shes too tall. And that is a problem if you remember my tallness being similar to a disability blog. But anyways the freestate team is better. And the way it kind of works around hear is that Freestate is where the better off kids and Lawrene high is where all the poor kids from the shealter and like 10% of lawrences elite go. What happens is the southwest jr. high kids get split up because a majority of them are better off into Lawrence High and Freestate. Then the central kids are split up also and then most of the east side kids go to LHS and the west siders/north siders go to freestate. And it seems to me that Freestate wins at everything.

We made it to the regional football thing and got second place. We beat every team in the area with the exception of the team who won regionals. Our chamber choir gets to go compete at disneyworld every year no exceptions and wins at all the areas. Our bands and orchestras are also really good but I would say that LHS is equal when it comes to band stuff. Now we're all kids. A majority of the people grew up in Lawrence. And the only thing diffrent is the incomes that people make. But Freestate high school is better at everything? Does that mean that the more money you have the more likley you are to be sucsessful. Lets take a look at the teenage celebritys. The first thing that comes to mind is miley cyrus and the jonas brothers. Mileys dad was a filthy rich country singer and she stayed number one with her hit party in the USA for motnsh. The jonas brothers had musical background with their father who knew how to play the guitar and all that stuff. That one girl that acts on nickalodean is Julia Roberts neice. See whats in common with these storys? Rich parents. I'm starting to realize that when a person dosent have the advantage of money it dosent come as easy.

Now im not saying that poor people just dont come with talent. I mean im sure if the homeless people in the downtown areas had oppurtunitys to do stuff they could be nba stars and such too. The real reason that the freestate teams are better isent that they just look at the cash in their storages and play better. Its that their parents could afford to get them personal trainers and voice lessons. They could go to all the summer camps and stuff that helps you improve your skills at whatever talent that you do have. But do not give up hope if you didnt go to the camps and such. There is a chance that you could pull a beyonce and be discovered by someone who does have money to develop your skills. So words for the wise. Great people with smiles and be polite. Wear really cute clothes that show that you could have potential. And wait to be discovered. But a word for those who are wiser. Study so that you dont end up being that hobo because a job isent being a celebirty or sports player but it will get you somewhere.

Song of the day:
