The end of the school year is here, and you’ve never been more exited. It’s graduation! You’ve been dreaming about this day since kindergarden. You never thought this day would come so soon. As you were in the middle of doing your hair, you got text from your boyfriend Ashton that reads,”Hey love! We just landed, I should be at your house in about an hour or so. xx” He was the best, he’s always been supportive of your choices in life as you were to his. You worked as a team and that got you both where you are now. He’s been away on tour for a while, but he promised to come back in time to see you get your diploma.
After you finished your hair and make up, you finally got your silky black dress on right as you heard a knock on the door. Knowing it was Ash, you quickly put on your cap and gown and run to the door before your parents were able to. As soon as you open the door, he wrapped his arms around your waist and spun you around. “There’s my graduate!!!” you smiled as you tried so desperately not to rub your freshly put on face all over the crook of his neck. As soon as he put you down, you gave him a small kiss hello before you heard the familiar sound of your parents coming out. “There he is! Just in time too, we leave in about 20 minutes. First, we need to take pictures!” Your dad says before getting out his camera. You two posed and posed and posed, it almost felt like your own personal photo shoot. It was finally time to leave.
As you guys were in the car on the way to school, you can feel the excitement in your stomach.
Ashton: Hey, you okay?
You: Yeah, I’m just excited and scared. It’s weird, i’m so used to a daily routine but now it’s all going to change.
Ashton: Yeah, it is. But you know, you’re off to do better things. This is only one of the many chapters the finish in your life and personally, I can’t wait to see where you go from here. You can finish College and get your degree, you can drop out and pursue a different dream, you can do anything from here on out and I’ll be by your side through it all.
You: You’re honestly the best, I’m so happy you were able to make it!!
Dad: We’re here!!
You exited the car and had to part ways to get prepared with the rest of your classmates.
You sat with the rest of the people, whom most you have known since kinder, and waited for them to call your name.
Announcer: (y/n)!!
You can hear your friends, family, and Ashton shouting as loud as they can as you walk to get your diploma.
After all the names were called, you all became eager and excited as the announcer’s said “You may now all move your tassels to the left, Congratulations to the class of 2017!!”
The crowd yelled, everyone was cheering, there were horns and you could feel the happiness in the air. You did it. Through the doubts and the fears, you managed to pull it all together for this day.
After the ceremony, you went to search for your family. First you say your parents and ran to them to give them big hugs before they gave your your flowers.
Mom: We’re so proud of you!!
Dad: You did it!
You smiled and thanked them while you looked around for Ash, “Where’d he go?” you asked. Your parents smiled and pointed behind you as you saw your boyfriend there with his bandmates. “They came!!!” You ran to hug, Cal, then Michael, and of course Luke.
Luke: You didn’t think we’d actually miss this right?
You: How’d you guys even get tickets?
Michael: Well your little love bug here talked to the administration and they said it was okay.
You looked at ashton as he held your favorite flowers in his hand before handing them to you.
Ashton: I hope you enjoyed the surprise my smarty pants.
You wrapped your arms around his neck as he held you tight and whispered, “I’m so proud of you.” into your ear.
Ashton: I got another surprise for you. I talked to your parents and they said you can go on tour with us this summer!
You: Really?!
You looked back at them and they smiled as they nodded. You ran to give them a second hug.
You:Thank you thank you thank you!
Dad: Consider this your graduation gift, but only until a few weeks before school, so we get time with you before you leave, okay?
You nodded in agreement. This was truly a wonderful end to this chapter of your life.
I’m sorry this one is long, i just really wanted it all down instead of putting it into parts. I hope you enjoy, and if not, I’ll try to keep my writing to a minimum xx

Introducing the family
You were so excited for the weekend to come! You’ve always been really close to your family, so to go on a weekend camping trip with your favorite cousins could only mean a weekend of fun. Since you’re all older now, you decided that bringing along your significant others would be a great way to get to bond and really bring them into the family. Though it was only you and your cousin Amy who have boyfriends, the other 3 family members didn’t mind. There’s Jocelyn who had a boyfriend as well but she thought it was too soon to introduce him so he’s not tagging along, there’s your cousin James who loves meeting people, then finally there’s your brother Michael who can’t wait for the family to finally meet your boyfriend Calum. Considering he has the same name as Cal’s best friend, they instantly connected and are almost inseparable when together. Lastly you have Amy’s boyfriend Jerry who you’ve met briefly before but now you get to know him more.
Road to Camping
You all decided to just meet up at the camp site because you had school, Jocelyn had work til about 3 and Calum had some last minute interviews in the morning so you 3 would carpool together while Michael, James, Amy, and Jerry would carpool to the campsite in the morning to set things up.
After class, you went to pick up Jocelyn.
You: I can’t wait for you to finally meet Calum! I really hope you like him, you know the family’s approval is everything to me.
Jocelyn: Well from what I see in the media, Mr. Rock star seems like a down to earth guy. I still can’t believe you two are actually a thing now. You’ve been seeing each other for what, a year?
You: Well actually we dated secretly for a few months then became official so about a year ago, so I guess you can say a year or so.
Jocelyn: How did that happen again? And why did we not hear about this til a few months ago?
You: We decided that it was best for both of us to not be seen together so much, so we met up at hotels, the studio and his apartment here in LA to try to stay low key. I didn’t want all the attention and he didn’t want me to get hurt by the attention. Now that we went from “friends” to “official” I was introduced to the fandom slowly to get everyone used to seeing me slowly.
Jocelyn: Wow all that for you two to be together, sounds rough. But you seem happy so whatever floats your boat. Where are we meeting him?
You:Well after his interview his TCP truck is taking him to the alley behind my house to switch him out of that truck and into my car. I have his camping equipment already so we’re good to go.
Jocelyn: Sounds exciting!
About 5 minutes later, you get a call from Cal.
Calum: Hey babe! I’m in the alley, are you almost here? I don’t know how long it’s going to be empty here for.
You:Yeah, actually around the corner. You can start getting out.
You hang up on Cal and turn the corner to see the black escalate. You pull up next to the truck and Thank his driver for his efforts. “No problem! I hope you guys have fun!” The driver yells, “We’ll try! I’ll make sure he doesn’t get bitten by snakes or anything” You say, and hear oh too familiar laughter in the back. “Have fun having tent sex (y/n)!!” Michael says while laughing. Ashton rolls his eyes and looks at you, “really though! have fun! And Invite us next time will ya?!” he says. Luke butts in with his “What gives with that again?! I’m still mad” “Sorry, introducing to the family. Maybe next time!” You say to him after Calum gets into the car. You smile and wave by to everyone before driving away.
You: Hey love! How was the interview?
Calum: Oh typical questions. What’s my love life like, played some games and answered some fan questions. Those were actually about the music, thank goodness.
He looks toward your cousin Amy, “Hey! I’m Calum! It’s so nice to finally meet one of (y/n)’s cousins.” Amy looks back and shakes his hand, “Nice to meet you too! We’ve heard a lot of you, hope you live up to the expectations” she laughs and Cal laughs nervously. “She’s only kidding babe don’t worry” you say giggly. “Now take some time to rest, we’ve got an hour long drive”
Cal tried to find a comfortable position to sleep in while you and your cousin caught up on life and listened to some nice car jams.
Getting to the Campground
You wake up Calum,”We’re here! I hope you enjoyed sleep, cus we’re probably not gonna get much this weekend. “Ha ha, very funny. You know I don’t sleep much anyways, so I’m used to it.” He laughed in response.
You get out and walk to your cousin Amy. “Amy!! Hey, how are you? Been a few weeks! Hey Jerry! I’m glad you guys are here. This weekend is going to be so much fun!” You guys talked while Cal unloaded the trunk, getting out the luggage and ice cooler. “Here let me help you with that!” Jerry said to Cal. “You must be Calum. I’m Jerry, Amy’s boyfriend. It’s so nice to meet you.”
Calum: Nice to meet you! (y/n) told me all about you guys.
Jerry: Well, hopefully it’s all good things. Haha
Your cousin James comes in, “Hey guys! Let me help.”
Jerry: Oh hey! Calum this is James. James this is (y/n)’s little love affair
James: Haha, well nice to meet you Calum, my younger sister’s a fan. I hope you actually get to enjoy yourself this weekend. We’ll make sure no paparazzi’s ruin you and (y/n)’s fun.
Calum: That’s actually really nice to hear. Thank you guys. I can’t wait for all of us to sit and bond tonight. Man, have I got stories to tell.
While you were talking to your family, you can see Cal smiling and laughing with the guys. It was nice to see them all get a long and like each other.
Later on that night, you guys started the campfire and sat around in a circle cooking smores. You snuggled up against Cal for warmth since it was getting pretty chilly. You told everyone about you guy’s hide aways and keeping your relationship to a minimum in the press.
Amy: Wow, you two are the modern day Romeo and Juliet.
You: Well hopefully not, I want to live haha
Calum: haha yeah, ditto. But it was worth it, we really enjoy each other’s company and she keeps me down to earth. I can’t even ask for breakfast without a “I’m not your maid, you make it yourself today!”
You: Well to the world you might be a rockstar, but you’re just Calum to me, and Calum can get his own things.
He smiled at you and pulled you close while everyone laughed.
James: Well, what else have you guys done? We don’t get to see (y/n) often so these stories are great to hear!
Calum: Well actually, you can hear a lot of what we’ve done in my music. Song’s like “Waste the Night” and “Vapor” are about us, with help from the boys of course.
Jocelyn: Awww man, that’s so cute.
Amy: That is cute!! Why don’t you write a song about me hm?!
Amy softly hits Jerry in the chest while we all laugh.
Jerry: Wooow, thanks Calum, only been a day and you already found a way to make me look bad haha
Calum: Sorry! Didn’t mean to haha
The rest of the night consisted of everyone telling stories and letting their emotions run freely. Who know, maybe this will be a new song on the next album, but for now it’s just a memory. Can’t wait for the whole weekend!
If your nude photos are posted online without your permission, Microsoft and Google want to know.
For years, most victims of revenge porn — people who have had their nude photos shared online without permission — basically couldn’t do anything about it.
According to one study, over 50% of all adults engage in sexting, and 70% admit to having received a nude photo online or over the phone.
And yet, despite the fact that we all (or at least more than half of us) do it, there’s still this weird, persistent, harmful notion that if your naked pictures get leaked or shared maliciously by an ex online, it’s your fault for taking them in the first place.
It’s completely backward, but sadly, the law seems to at least kind of agree.
As of September 2014, New Republic found, putting someone else’s illicit photos online without their consent was illegal in just 16 states, though laws have been proposed in more states. Not only is it typically impossible to prosecute the perpetrator, they note, it’s impossible to legally compel websites to take the images taken down most of the time.
But thankfully, Microsoft and Google — which operate two of the biggest search engines on the web — don’t think it’s your fault. And they’re finally saying “Enough is enough.”
Here’s another way to fight back from your friendly neighborhood law student! If you took these pictures yourself, you owe the copyrights to these pictures so in addition to taking down the pictures you can smack them with a lawsuit not only for intentional infliction of emotional distress BUT ALSO copyright infringement so he has to pay you anywhere from $750-$10,000 per photo posted, x5 damages if there’s willfulness/malice (which there always is). Bleed those creeps dry.
Throughout the semester, Luke would persistently ask you to go to the gym with him. “C’mon (y/n), I’ll push you and it’ll be fun!!” He said one day. “No, I have to much to do with classes and you know I can’t afford to fail any more classes.” He gave you a frowned look, but it was true. School was stressing you out and you didn’t want to spend a second not studying, you couldn’t afford it. Not only that, but add in the fact that you feel like everyone will judge you for not being “fit”, it was a dumb thought but it constantly hit you every time he mentioned the gym.
Luke: (y/n), did you know that working out actually improves your grades and is cleansing to the body? You literally sweat the stress out. It’ll be good for you to relax and not think about school.
You: Okay, how about this... after finals are done and over with, I’ll finally go to the gym with you. I wanted to get healthy this summer anyways.
Luke: You promise?
You: Promise. Now open that Ecology book and get to reading, or we both fail haha
3 weeks after that conversation, finals finished and you never felt so free. It was as if the boulder you were carrying was suddenly lifted and destroyed. You looked at your phone and noticed a text from Luke.
Lukey: Hey (y/n), I’ll pick you up around 8. Get ready to feel the burn :-)
“Damnit!!” you yelled out. You completely forgot you about promising Luke to go to the gym with him. You know you couldn’t break the promise, he’d never let you live that down so you decided to make a quick snack and put your water in the fridge to get it as cold as possible.
Within no time, Luke was honking outside. It was time to break a sweat.
As soon as you walked into the gym, the sight of people being able to do more than you made you feel nervous, you felt like you didn’t fit in. Luke noticed this and wrapped him arm around your shoulder, “Hey” he said, “Don’t think about anyone else, they all started where you are right now. Everyone is here for a different reason and no one is judging you by what you can and cannot do. Also, I’m here and if anyone says anything to you I’ll-” you shoot him a smirked look, “you’ll do what” you said. “I’ll get Calum and Michael here to teach them a lesson” he laughed, which caused you to laugh and feel better. It might have not been your scene, but it felt better having Luke here.
Fast forward 30 sit ups, 20 push ups, and 20 burpees later. “C’mon (y/n)!! Hold that plank for a little bit longer!! Just 20 more seconds!!” “YOU SAID THAT 30 SECONDS AGO LUKE.” You loudly told him and you were struggling to stay up. You kept telling yourself you could do this, just don’t think about it too much and distract yourself. “3,2,1..time.” He said, those words sounded like heaven to your ears. “You’re doing great (y/n)! How about we get to the Elliptical now to just relax a bit?” You were lying on your stomach with your arms acting as pillows, “Oh joy, running” you snarled sarcastically. “haha, no you don’t have to run. Just go at whatever speed you want and we’ll just be on there for 30 minutes, then we’ll leave” Your core felt like it had been stabbed a million times, but it didn’t sound too bad, so you didn’t mind. You two found some next to each other so while you were on the elliptical, you chatted. “So, whats the real reason you refused to come to the gym?” he asked. “I told you, school was on the brain” you replied.
Luke: (y/n) I’ve known you since 3rd grade, I know you well enough to know that’s not the reason. Whats going on?
You: Okay... so I felt self conscious about coming because everyone is used to this while I can’t even lift 20 pound weights by myself.
Luke: So how do you feel now?
You: Well now that I look around, everyone is different and no one is giving anyone any dirty looks. It’s as if everyone is just comfortable with being around each other.
Luke: Does that mean you’ll come with me again?
You: As long as I’m with you and we work together, yeah. Not everyday but maybe twice a week.
Luke’s was smiling cheek to cheek and you could tell he was excited to have a gym partner.
I’m rusty and haven’t written in a while so I’m sorry if this was basic or bad but I’ll get back into the hang of it soon. xx
I've been so busy and there's just been so much going on in life with school and personal dilemmas but I'm ready to get back in the game. New imagines starting tomorrow.
Okay so this is a jumble to explain but it’s basically about Marina Joyce.
In short, she is a Youtuber that is believed to be kidnapped, in an abusive relationship she cannot escape and most likely having to forcibly take drugs and hallucinogens. The Police were not able to get in contact with her and although they have before, they were called off and it was explained on social media there is reasonable evidence to display that she does not even control her own social media accounts.
MORE INFORMATION: https://justpaste.it/wm1b
and there’s even more if you search for it on tumblr where people are putting the pieces together little by little so it seems!
She uploads videos every Thursday but it’s undeniable how uncomfortable she is in them. She looks so shaky and her old videos she was such a happy, glowing and outgoing girl. Now she is literally a paranoid, disheveled, panicky WRECK being directed by some unknown face behind the camera.
There is something fishy going on and it petrifies me. It hits my gut hard and gives me chills. And I don’t get shaken up easily!
The point of this is to SPREAD THE WORD. She has over 600,000 fans who know what’s happening and even used to date KSI’s Brother but for some reason, NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT THIS ON YOUTUBE. It’s like nobody knows, not even NEWS CHANNELS.
I HAVE A PLAN
Hear me out, my plan is that we message Scarce. Scarce is a huge Youtube News Channel that has helped so many others in the past and he NEEDS to get ahold of this.
HIS TWITTER IS @JOHNSCARCE
Because he is so huge, I think Twitter would be the best way to contact him but
HERE IS HIS YOUTUBE
NOTE: IT DOES NOT HAVE TO STOP HERE. DM LEAFY, DM GRADEAUNDERA, DM PYROCYNICAL, DM IHE, DM PHILIP DEFRANCO, DM FUCKING KEEMSTAR IF YOU WANT. HELL, DM COMEDYSHORTSGAMER, HE IS HER EX.
okay so i really hate to jack this post, given i already reblogged it, but i need to address this.
skip to 0:10, and watch all the way up to 0:13. when you get there, you’ll hear a very faint whisper as she turns around. i know this isn’t my imagination, as many other people have supposedly heard this as well.
she says “help me”.
guys. op isn’t fucking lying, this girl is seriously in trouble. hints in her videos are the only way she can reach the outside world.
don’t scroll past this. she needs help.
help save this girl’s life. like op said, we can spread the word and attempt to contact the people listed in the post above, and you at least owe this girl that if she’s really hurt.
So I tried to recreate this, because I knew the responses would be different, and consequently realized that it’s either extremely old or faked, as Cleverbot auto-capitalizes and auto-punctuates your sentences for you if you do not. Oh well.
In light of that fact, here’s my go at cybersexing Cleverbot.
A Little girl, 3 yrs. old picked up by a man driving a gray car, license plate: Quebec 72B 381. Canada. Reblog this. It could save her. The Kidnapping is recent so do it, 3 seconds will not kill you. If it were your child .
I tried my best with the lyrics, there’s probably some mistakes though. Enjoy!

Everybody’s got their demons
Even wide awake or dreaming
I’m the one who ends up leaving
Make it okay.
See a war I wanna fight it
See a match I wanna strike it
Every fire I’ve ignited
Fade into gray
But now that I’m broken
Now that you know it
Caught up in a moment
Can you see inside?
‘Cause I’ve got a jet black heart
And there’s a hurricane underneath it
Trying to keep us apart
I write with a poison pen
But these chemicals moving between us
Are the reason to start again
Now I’m holding on for dear life
There’s no way that we could rewind
Maybe there’s nothing after midnight
That could make you stay
But now that I’m broken
And now that you know it
Caught up in a moment
Can you see inside?
‘Cause I’ve got a jet black heart
And there’s a hurricane underneath it
Trying to keep us apart
I write with a poison pen
But these chemicals moving between us
Are the reason to start again
The blood in my veins
Is made up of mistakes
Let’s forget who we are
And dive into the dark
As we burst into colours
We turn into life
‘Cause I’ve got a jet black heart
And there’s a hurricane underneath it
Trying to keep us apart
I write with a poison pen
But these chemicals moving between us
Are the reason to start again
I’m warning you know, junior year is the hardest year of high school. Colleges look at the year the most. It’s the first year of IB/AP testing, SAT, ACT, and more. So I decided to compile a post on JUNIOR YEAR ADVICE.
Check out the links I’ve put in the post. If any don’t work, message me!!! If you want more, let me know!
1. Get good grades. This is going to sound like an obvious point but really, you need to focus on doing your best academically this year. Junior year grades are the most important to a college. Improvement from previous years counts too, so improve and do your absolute best. No slacking! Look at YouTube videos for note taking ideas and how to get good grades and study tips. Here are some more.
2. Take your first SAT/ACT in the winter of your junior year. I know the SAT tested in January and the ACT should test around there too. Test early and then you’ll have time to study and retake if needed. I took my SAT in March, which was okay, but I wanted more time to study so I’m taking my second SAT in October and my first ACT in September. December is the last month to take tests for UCs. Take your ACT and SAT earlier in your junior year to get them done before senior year. Check out this video for SAT/ACT advice. It’s a simple study practice.
3. Study for the SAT/ACT/AP/IB tests. Study. The. Material. Start early and keep on track. Get books or online tools to help. Yes you an retake the SAT/ACT but any more than one extra time may not look good, as it shows it took you 3+ tries to get that score. You can’t really retake the IB/AP tests easily, or at all. You paid good money for those tests, study! I won’t be taking the new SAT in March of course so learn about that.
4. This is your last chance to join a club or sport and have in look good on college apps. Waiting until senior year to do anything, or everything, is a bad idea. Join now so you’ll have a full year under your belt. If you’re in IB, you’ll need CAS hours. Here is a link to a site with ideas. They can also be used for regular community service.
5. Start trying to decide what you want to do in college if you haven’t already. Make spreadsheets and logs to figure out what college is best for you. Figure out what you need to do to get into that college if you haven’t already.
6. Don’t date someone for the heck of it. Don’t date someone on and off. It’s a bad idea all the way around.
7. This is the year where you learn who smokes and drinks and all that. Don’t fall into it. It’s not cool and no one cares. Honestly.
8. While it is important to do good things for college, don’t do something JUST for college apps or to impress someone. If you want to take 5+ AP classes because you want to, go for it. If you’re doing it ONLY because it looks good on college apps or because you want to impress someone else, you’re doing it for the wrong reason.
9. Learn about the world. Learn that feminism isn’t a joke for a meme or anything. Learn that it is about equality. Learn about the police brutality. Keep an eye on politics. You’ll be voting soon.
Study Efficiently, and Never Forget a Concept Again!
Use the Feynman Technique to:
Understand ideas that you don’t really “get”.
Remember ideas that you understand, but forget during tests.
Efficiently study before an exam.
Steps:
Choose a concept
Pretend you’re teaching the idea to a someone else
If you get stuck, go back to the book
Simplify
The steps in detail:
After choosing your concept (step 1), write the concept at the top of a blank page of paper.
Fill the blank sheet with explanations and information about the concept, like you are teaching it to someone unfamiliar with the concept (step 2). This is crucial because through explaining these ideas you highlight areas you are well versed in, and (more importantly) areas that need attention.
When you get stuck (step 3), reference the book, your professor, a T.A., or a fellow student who can illuminate that information for you. Then return to the blank sheet and keep going until you get stuck again. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as many times as you need to complete your concept.
If your explanations are long or overly complicated, simplify them (step 4). Use simpler language or come up with analogies or narratives to make the information easier to understand and remember.
lmao I’m not talking about your boring “peach fuzz” I’m talking about brown girls and intersex girls and trans girls with thick dark stomach hair and noticeable happy trails etc. who are taught to hate ourselves and are pressured into removing that hair in order to avoid violence and to be properly “feminine” according to transmisogynist and white supremacist ideals of beauty. keep your white hands off my post
