Sorry this is so late! I didn’t get my blog swap partner’s post until after I left for the Sox game. In case I didn’t get it, I didn’t want to miss one of my Blog365 days so I had my mom guest post for me. Now that I’m home, and with an hour to spare, here is W0rdvomit’s 20SB Blog Swap post…

Hello there. I am Jenn’s guest blogger Kenyata. I am from W0rdvomit.com where I write about my everyday life, thoughts, opinions, and anything else my little heart desires. I guess I can start by telling everyone a little bit about myself. I am a 22 year old college kid from Las Vegas. I am going to school to become a high school English teacher. Everyone thinks I am brave for wanting to do this, but I feel like the high school kids are the ones that needs the most help. I am currently single (so far it’s been 3 months) so if there are any eligible bachelors out there, please shoot me an e-mail lol. I wasn’t to sure what to write about today, hell I totally forgot about it because I was sort of stranded at the lake yesterday.

So has anyone seen that movie Open Water? Ya know the one where the people get stranded in the ocean? Well this is like that…just kidding, but not really, it’s totally like that lol. I went out onto the lake with my best friend and her family, and it was suppose to be a great day of me learning to knee board, and learning how to wakeboard and all that jazz, but it turned into something totally different. I am trying this new thing in life where I am trying to be the more adventurous type, so this trip sounded like a really good place to start. We get out there and everything’s great, the water feels wonderful and it was super hot. I was learning how to kneeboard, and I almost had it, but I got knocked off. They went to go pull it for us again, and then the boat died. Yep dead, gone, went to boat heaven. I of course was not worried, because I knew that her parents were fully equipped to take care of the situation. So we kind of just hung out for a few hours and put the anchor out and just swam around. We were in our own secluded area so when it came time for us to really get out to try and flag someone down we had to get out and push and pull the boat. We found someone on a seadoo and they actually pulled us halfway to where we needed to go, and then we managed to flag down some other people with a boat, we made it back to shore and voila here I am to tell the story of my being semi stranded lol. Boring yes, but I thought I’d mention it.

So while I was over at my best friends house, her little sister had a couple of friends over. We somehow got onto the subject of them being rich, and it made me wonder what it would be like to be born into money. I wonder what it would be like to have everything just handed to you on a silver platter, and never have to worry about how you are going to pay for college, or have to worry about any bills because mom and dad will take care of it. I work at a day camp, and this camp is expensive, so this means these kids are filthy rich. I have 8 year olds coming to me and telling me that they have ipods, cell phones, and laptops. I didn’t get any of that stuff, minus the computer, until I was about 18 and older. These kids have everything, and I know that it will only increase as they gets older. It’s so funny to me how rich kids differ from kids who don’t have nearly as much money. Last week one of my girls was talking about some boy that she didn’t like. I was somewhat listening to the conversation, and I heard her say “well all I know is he better marry for money” I was shocked. How does she even know exactly what that means at 9 years old? Said child also told me that she didn’t want to be a teacher because she didn’t make nearly enough money and that would be pointless. I know it’s not her fault, but what kind of parent teaches a child to think like that? I unfortunately was born into a not so rich family, so I know what it’s like to be without stuff. When I was thinking about what I wanted to be when I grew up, money did not really play a role in that decision, and here I have this child telling me that being a teacher is pointless because they don’t make enough money. I just think it would be very interesting to live a day in the life of a filthy rich girl who has everything. Would I get bored easily? Would I have any true genuine friends? Would I be like Sharpay from High School Musical? Are any of you spoiled rich children? If so tell me about it lol, but that was just a random thought that ran through my head today.

I think that not being born into money gives you more character.

You may want to take this with a grain of salt, though, as I am 26 years old and still haven’t owned a car. (and trying to make that seem normal)
