Now this is the story that should have gotten more air time on your news last night I was very disappointed of the javonna story over a real hero's story, La'Quisha Pompey should have been the lead not javonna or stiles, wake up and realize what is really important to your viewers.

This story made me think about what is really important. For this girl to work so hard and make it through high school after what happened to her really puts life into perspective. Jayvonna better get over herself, the world will set her straight! Good for Laquesha, she worked hard and earned herself some awards. Congratulations!

I agree with Congrats Grad & I wiggins. I am proud of Laquesha because she has made it through no matter what. This girl sat in the hospital working on her work diligently. That should say something! She is a young lady that will make a difference in the world. On the subject of Jayvonna, let her try to pull the same mess in a world that could give two cares about her. I have been in plenty of college classes where if a student had a cell phone and was on it in class, they were kicked out for the semester and couldnt protest cause they were wrong.But i digress...

Stay strong Laquesha and your perseverance will take you farther than these haters on here with no life would like to see you go.

Thank-you everyone who supported me and was touched by my story. I'm very happy and grateful for everyone who help donate money for me to get a new wheelchair.

Daily Horoscope for December 29

Aquarius

Be careful now, because you could easily give someone the wrong impression and not even know that you're doing it. This is most likely to happen if you're trying to pussy-foot around them or avoid offending them, because that's when things could get lost in translation. You also have a tendency to sit on the fence now, which could make you seem slightly untrustworthy or shifty if you aren't careful.
