The
following was written by Audrey Hepburn, who was asked to share her "beauty
tips"...
For
attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For
lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For
a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For
beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For
poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.
The
beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she
carries, or the way she combs her hair.
The
beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway
to her heart, the place where love resides.
The
beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman
is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the
passion that she shows.
That's
why the beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.

What’s Hot and What’s Not in Illinois!
Hello girls out there! So we all know that girls have tough lives, but what makes us feel better after a hard week of school and drama? Shopping of course! Some of the best and stylish stores for teens are Gilly Hicks, Forever 21, Abercrombie and Fitch, and Claire’s. Even though Claire’s has some stuff for younger girls they still have very attractive accessories. By the way one store that isn't the best, especially for teens, is Justice. They have some very cute stuff but it's very expensive and sometimes a rip off!
So after you do your shopping and you are riding home what kind of music should you jam to in the car? During the summer its really fun to listen to songs that you can fist pump to like Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO, On the Floor by Jennifer Lopez, Ft. Pitbull, and of course some of Lady Gaga's hits! One song that is really good but over-played (IMHO) is E.T. by Katy Perry. Very good song but it's one of those that is stuck in my head the whole day! - Mary, 13, Illinois
