I hate thinking about death. It scares me because we can die in any way. But how I see it, death is God’s calling. God planted us on earth like flowers. We grow, and than we come to a point in life where it’s time for our goodbyes. In this chapter, Justin receives a letter from one of his fans. A girl by name of Sabrina Moreino passed away from a malignant tumor. She had to go through chemotherapy, which is the destroying of cancer cells so they don’t multiple anymore. The day before her surgery, she had the chance to meet Justin on stage in Toronto. Sabrina mentions in her letter that the only thing that had gotten her through the surgery was Justin’s hat and their pictures. While Justin was reading the letter, he could not help but break down into tears. I could relate to Justin because my uncle had passed away from cancer too. I don’t think I need to talk about how my experience was because I’m pretty sure anyone has lost someone very important to them in their lives. This is for all of the people in the world struggling to fight cancer, never say never!!

How could one be so selfish? We all want what we don’t have, but are they necessities? All we really do is spend, spend and spend. We don’t realize that kids in the developing countries would appreciate whatever they could get. So why not reach out to them? Individuals like Justin immediately make me want to make a difference in this world. Justin held a charity to his tour collecting a dollar for every ticket sold. The money goes to an organization called, “Pencils of Promise”. The organization helps build extremely needed schools in developing countries. People believe that it’s just a dollar and it won’t do much. I disagree, if people could just open their eyes and hearts, it will add up fast. It’s easy to earn a dollar. It’s a challenge to make a difference. Don’t dodge away from this challenge. Anything can happen if you put your mind to it. Reach for the stars and sky, bloggers!

I want to feel good when I do something right. I want to feel that I give my parents enough. When it comes down to it, we all want to make our parents proud. Speaking for myself, I love the feeling when my parents talk about my achievements with others. I love this feeling because I know I am doing something right. The worst thing to ever do is to disappoint your parents. At only the age of 17, Justin’s already doing so much for everyone. He helps out a large amount of charities and even his mother being single. Justin is like our generation of Michael Jackson. Justin and Michael both put others before themselves. All of Justin’s family members are so proud of his accomplishments. Oh my, the way my love towards Justin grows so much after reading each chapter!

Going along with my last blog about friendship, a way to interact with all of our friends is social networking. Not only does facebook, tumblr, twitter, myspace, etc, is used for entertainment but it is also used to keep in contact with friends. Justin enjoys going on twitter because he believes that it is a good way to tweet, follow, and tweet back to all of his fans. Now that he is so famous, he can never see any of my tweets. The funny thing is, I would tweet every hour of the day just so he would notice me. Everyone thought I was crazy and told me that Justin would see my tweets. You know what I say to that? NEVER SAY NEVER!!

Loneliness is the worst feeling to feel. No one ever wants to feel this way. God put us on earth to love one another. A friend is a person who we can always rely on. A friend should be like siblings we never had. In this chapter, Justin talks about his friendship with Usher and Scooter. Usher and Scooter is a really good friend to Justin. With all of Justin’s hard work with his singing, he started to lose his voice. Justin did not want to cancel a show because he felt that he would let his entire fan down. Usher was concern about his health. With that, Usher convinced Justin to take this one show off. This chapter reminds me of my good friend, Jade. I was at a point in life where I wanted to give up. It felt like everything was happening so quickly and it was just too much to handle. She helped me by helping me with all of my problems, one at a time I am so blessed to have a friend like Jade.

“I want everything to go right. I don’t want to let anyone down.” The worst thing to do in life is to disappoint the ones you love. When you finally do disappoint them, you think to yourself, “Why did I do that?” or “They are never going to forgive me”. We all feel the same way… Even Justin sometimes. In this case, Justin is talking about letting his fans down. I remember on February 1st 2011, Justin Bieber was at Muchmusic for an interview. When I had called Muchmusic for the free wristbands, they had already given them all away. It felt like someone ripped my heart out because I love Justin so much and I wouldn't be able to see him! Of course the crazy fanatic I was, I stood outside in the cold from 8 am. I knew that his interview was not until 5pm, but it was worth the wait because I was standing in the front row outside. What had disappointed me was that he didn't even perform! I came all the way from Brampton just to see my baby Justin, perform! Although he disappointed his one fanatic down this time, I still love him with all of my heart!

My life has been a battlefield. My parents are both immigrants, so survival for them back than was awfully hard. Nonetheless, my parents promised me that my life would be better than theirs. For what I remember, this was the most painful thing to hear. It’s heartbreaking to me because my parents work so hard, just so that I can be successful in life. Instead of thanking my parents, I’ve put so much stress on them. I really don’t mean to. My parent’s just don’t understand me sometimes. Who I am right now is not because I want to be this person, but because people make me who I am. I don’t usually like talking about my problems because I know that others have been through rougher things. Justin’s grandpa says, “Nothing great ever came that easy”. In this chapter, Justin talks about people bringing him down. Before Justin was famous, he had YouTube videos of him making covers for his favorite artists. Of course, there were always people that didn’t appreciate his music, and this was his down point in life. Justin’s grandfather would tell him this powerful quote, and Justin becomes more confident. I can relate to this quote because I believe that happiness can only be achieved if I work hard right now. My life may not be easy, but I’m glad that I have people that love me trying to push me to do the best that I can.

Hello bloggers! You want to know what the best feeling in the world is. Love. Now love does not have to be towards the opposite sex. Love is real genuine emotions towards anyone you truly care about. For example, my love for Justin Bieber. Even though I don’t know him personally, I can’t help but love him. He is just so beautiful, inside and out. Whenever I hear his songs about other girls, I like to imagine him singing it about me. In this chapter, Justin talks about his “favorite girl”. He mentions that he wasn’t really good with ladies before he became famous. And now that he is famous, it’s much harder to find real love. He mentions in this chapter that his song, “favorite girl” was dedicated to his mother. There is honestly no other love like my mother’s love. My mother is so incredible. My mom wiped my tears when I was unhappy. She watched me fall down, but helped me stand up for myself. My mom even drives me crazy a lot of the times, but she is a promise from God. A promise that she will always be my best friend forever! I love my mom unconditionally and irrevocably.

In this chapter, Justin talks about finding his music talent. How Justin became who he is today was by sitting in church like any one of us. He was sitting in church with his mother and was really into a lot of the music during worship. From there was where his music talent was first discovered. Of course, like everyone else’s first try, he was not the best at what he did. “You have to let yourself do stuff you’re not good at”. I agree with his quote because if we only did things we were good at, we would never learn anything new. This kind of goes along with what my English teacher taught me. I remember asking about where I went wrong on my essay, and he had told me my errors. Instead of making me feel so bad about myself, he helped by telling me to practice writing. I guess another way of saying is practice makes perfect! Thank you, Mr. Carreiro.

Fear is such a weak emotion. I am scared sometimes because I’m scared of what people might think of me. With that, it leads me to tell unbearable lies. No one really understands where I am coming from. I think we can all agree on that today, we are all selfish people. When it comes down to it all, no one can understand me the way music does. In this chapter, Justin Bieber talks about some of his songs. Justin says, “Music is the universal language no matter the country we are born in or the color of our skin. Brings us all together”. I really like this quote because it is the honest truth. Music brings out the best in people. Sometimes, music brings out words never said. What I mean is, it is often hard to express our thoughts sometimes. Music “brings us all together”, because than we can relate to one another. Music plays such a big role in today’s society. I honestly would not know how to live without music. Life without music is like music without a rhythm. Plankton without a crabby patty. I guess what I’m trying to say is… Life would be dead without music. Music brings joy to life. Music is medication, motivation and inspiration.

In the first chapter, Justin Bieber (aka my boyfriend) talks about how excited he is to do his first performance. Can you actually believe it though? He is so young and talented, it’s incredible! It makes me so proud of him because not a lot of these singers are from Canada. You’re probably wondering how Justin Bieber became so famous…. Justin Bieber was twelve years old and his manager right now, Scott “Scooter” Braun had seen a YouTube video of him performing in a local talent show. Scott had introduced Justin to Usher, and a few months after, his first single came out! It was love at first sigh when I first took a glance at him. He was just so beautiful! Justin’s first hit was, one time! Justin says, “The success I’ve achieved comes to me from God”. I totally agree with him! I feel like I’m living in such a big world and each day goes by so fast. With the sad examples of my past, a lot of people just want to see me break down and get lost in this world. But I need to realize that everything in life happens for a reason, and that success can only be achieved by hard work. With all of that aside, I hope all of you blogger, keep working hard for your dreams! Never say never!
