Reactions of Alicias pregnancy

-'Don't be so ridiculous,' said her dad. 'Usually they've got more sense.'
-'Do you hate us?' said her mum suddenly. 'Is that what this is about?'
-'And what makes you think you want a baby? You couldn't look after a goldfish.'
-'Jesus Christ,' he said. 'Don't you people ever learn anything?'
-My mum didn't say anything. She just looked at me for a long time, and then it was like her face was a piece of paper that someone screwing up. There werde these folds and lines and creases everywhere, in places where there was never usually anything....She stood there crying for a while...'Of all the things you could do. All the ways you could hurt me.'

Another kind of Slam!!!

Slam is a basketball magazin from the usa and it is about the nba and college basketball from the usa. I think our book slam has nothing to do with basketball and I have no idea why Nick Hornby named his book slam. So if you want to see another kind of slam check the following link and enjoy a site full of basketball stuff and news from the nba.

Juno

Does somebody knows the Film Juno? It's about a girl (Juno), who is in the same situation as Alicia. She's also 16 and she has the same problem. She's Pregnant! At first, Juno want's to have an abortion but finally she decided to give the baby up for adoption. I'm really curious about what Alicia and Sam are going to do with the Baby. Of course they are overstrained with the situation but they also have to find a solution.

How Sam feels about Alicia:
,,It´s not hat things started to go wrong between me and Alicia. It just stopped being as good. I can´t really explain why, not properly. I just woke up one morning and didn´t feel the same way. I didn´t like not feeling the same way, because it was a good feeling, and I felt flat without it, but it had gone, and there was nothing I could do to bring it back. I even tried to pretend it was still there, but the trying just seemed to make it worse.,,

Idols

A lot of teenagers, younger and older ones, have Idols, everyone his/her own.
And it´s normal, to hab´ve a poster or maybe a book or something of this person.

But I think it´s not normal to speak to a person on a poster or translate the things, which are writing in a book, into your normal life. The Idols are normal people you adore. When you meet them, you maybe can get tipps, but from a poster or a book?

Okay, Sam has a difficult familysituation, his parents were divorced and his mother has boyfriends, but are this reasons?
What do you think?
