Experience under the arch.

I have never thought about what goes on around me. This weekend on saterday i went down town for this event called Invisable Children. It is for kids in Uganda, Africa who are forced to be killed or to be soldiers. Watching the documentry made me think about how lucky i am. NOt to fear where i sleep and have enough to eat, The bed i sleep in so nice! We need to be thankful for what we have. Anyways, while i got down there are 7 at night. We sat on the stairs and waited to be resuced.. what we needed was a famous person to save us. Around 11pm we were asked to sleep on the other side from the street. This really small strip, we all had to fit which there was about 500 people there. We experienced the hundereds of cars driving by with their subs and rims. People were sitting outside the windows screaming and people on top of their suv's swirving on the streets. There were cars being chased by police. It was very interesting to hear what deffinitly goes on down by the arch. Cops yelling for people to get off the stairs! who would think that would be a crime. haha. I layed wanting to sleep but know that i may not be safe. I had the same feeling the kids feel in the other countries. FEAR. Though we have not been rescued yet.. at least i don't think we have.. I hope someone comes forward to help.
A note to everyone we got first place at my choir concert saterday morning, oh and i got over my fear of the boss. I went on it my first time saterday! It was a great day! i got my english project out of the way as well! 8Days till out of high school im so excited!
