4. Concrete City: A crazy, creepy place about 10 minutes from where I live. It was built as temporary housing for miners here in the early part of the 20th century, until they started getting sick... It was partially demolished around 1924, and is now used for a cool place to hike to, play paintball in, and graffiti on. Check out the story and some awesome pictures.

Had to correct numbering.. Mosca got in before me with #3. :)

Hanging out with girls and talking about being wise regarding things like self-respect and discovering who they want to become and making a commitment to themselves to not letting anyone or anything distract or hinder them from those goals; that sex is not the currency for getting or keeping a relationship with a guy b/c if it is he isn't worth it as he is totally selfish and doesn't really care for or respect you and paying to be in a relationship with the currency of your body is so demeaning to you; the realities of teen pregnancy; the realities of abortion....
6. Instead of paying farmers not to grow crops in order to keep market prices up, pay them for growing crops that never enter the market and instead go into something like the world food bank to fight world hunger.
7. Racism and prejudice. If we never teach it to our children, it will STOP!
8.Promote equal rights of every human being living on Earth... much like heal the world make it a better place sort...
9. The depressing status of the current global economy ...

Sara ♥ (saranicole) 10 things I would do more about if I could

1. Global Warming
2. Animals
3. Global Environment
4. If I had the power I would get rid of BSL (Breed Specific Legislation) world wide. I don't believe in banning dogs because of the breed they happen to be, I believe in teaching people responsibility for their actions because the majority of dog agression towards people is down to how the dog was raised in the first place.
