I begans to feel a strong 6 to pay for their meals. I wasn't rich, but I could 7 it. So I followed my intention and 8 the boss to pay their bill. I was told that they had 9 their courses and might still order coffees, but so far the bill 10 $ 75. When he asked 11 I was paying their bill I felt a little 12 as I tried to cover my feelings.

But it did happen. Now every time I think of the 20 at the restaurant a smile spreads across my mouth, as I remember how once, I felt a strong desire to give freely to another. | ||||

| High school is tough. And if you were to ask Pink her opinion on the subject she'd tell you the same. Before she became famous, and when she was still called Alicia Moore, the young superstar faced more than her fair share of high school drama. In her interview with Faze, Pink admits she was sorted as a troublemaker at school, "The problem was, I was labelled as trouble-so I was like 'trouble'. I'll show you trouble. You want trouble, well here it is!" Unfortunately, Pink began to deliver what the teachers expected and the vicious cycle began. "It's like the label they give you, you grow into it anyway. They treat you bad, so you act bad," Pink says and continues. "Did I deserve it?-in the end yes, but I feel I just conformed to the label they gave me. I think a lot of kids just get frustrated and act the way the teachers expect them to." It's no surprise that eventually Pink developed a problem with authority, "When they would say it had to be a certain way I would ask, 'why?' They'd say, 'Because it always has,' so I'd try to prove them wrong." Predictably, Pink dropped out of school and soon after began to sing in nightclubs. She sang any chance she could get and was eventually discovered by a talent scout (星探) while singing in a club in Philadelphia. She does not regret anything she has done and would not change her past if she could. "To change that would change who I am," she said in her Faze interview. She believes having faced so many difficulties at a young age is a good thing. "To experience the good you have to have seen the bad. Plus it makes you appreciate blessings more," she says. Pink encourages us to be ourselves and not to worry about being labelled. "Just wait," she says. "Give it a couple of years then it won't matter. Because no matter what label they give you, the best thing you can do is prove them wrong." |
