Sometimes, there are characters from television shows, movies, or literature that people may aspire to be or simply wish they were. This may be because of the characters’ traits or because of the opportunities these characters have. For me, if there were any fictional character I would love to be, it would be Blair Waldorf. Blair is a girl from the television show, Gossip Girl, who starts off as a teenager and ends the show in her early 20s, all the while maintaining her status in New York’s Upper East Side. Blair Waldorf has medium length brown hair throughout the course of the show. At a stature of about 5’2”, she has a delicate, petite frame.

As a result of her powerful determination, after being set back after drama with a teacher at her high school ensued, she gets her way and finds herself accepted into an Ivy League school, Columbia University. When her mother decides to pass on the Waldorf fashion company, Waldorf Designs, to Blair, she perseveres and releases her own personalized line, undeterred by mishaps regarding production of clothing, competing designers, and questions about ownership. To top it off, she and her on-and-off boyfriend/fiance finally tie the knot in the last episode, notwithstanding their formerly rocky relationship, and within five years of kicking off their matrimony, they have a child named Henry. Really, Blair seemingly lives happily ever after, which is a very desirable ending, at least to

The Civil War was the bloodiest war in American history. It started April 12, 1861, and ended May 9, 1865, in spite of the fact that many believed it would end up shorter.

Many LGBTQ teens and young adults all across America are suicidal and have no one to talk to. In this situation, they can turn to the Trevor Project, a 24-hour lifeline for LGBTQ teens and young adults who are feeling suicidal. Many LGBTQ teens are bullied at school and people won’t stand up for them because they don’t want to be bullied. The emotions bottle up and eventually some of them turn to suicide. Instead of going through with it, they are encouraged to call Trevor’s suicide lifeline. I want to get involved in this organization because I think it is important that everyone, no matter how people view them, realize they are worth more than society makes them out to be.
