Demi Lovato, They love you!
Demetria Devonne [Demi] Lovato, born on August 20th, 1992, is a successful singer, songwriter and a dedicated actress. She started off her musical journey with a few original songs including 'Shadow' featured on the show 'As the Bell Rings'. She also sang a cover of 'That's how you know' by Amy Adams from film 'Enchanted' which was released in DisneyMania 6. Beautiful song, isn't it?
The film Camp Rock starred Demi which led to the uproar of all Lovato's lovely fans! She sure did a great job! Mitchie Torres became a dream to many young girls. Her song 'This is me', a duet with Joe Jonas peaked #9 on Billboard Hot 100!
In 2008-09 the release of 'Don't forget' and 'Here We Go Again' was a relish to all Lovato's fans, including me! Her role of Princess Rosalinda Marie Montoya Fiorre in Princess Protection Programme was loved by everyone! She recorded 'One and the same' in the movie featuring co-star Selena Gomez.
In March, 2010 Demi announced her South American Tour. All fans awaited with keen eyes and ears till 23rd May, when her tour commenced. Unfortunately, she dropped out of the tour on October 30th in order to enter a treatment facility to treat physical and emotional issues. On January 28, 2011, it was reported that Lovato had completed her inpatient treatment at the rehab facility and returned home to Los Angeles, where she "will continue to see doctors" to "help her work on the issues she confronted in treatment." On March 8, 2011 an exclusive video was released on Cambio.com in which Lovato thanked her fans for their support during what she described as "the darkest time of my life" and also stated that she was excited to get back to work.
I can't tell you how much light you guys brought into my life in probably the darkest time in my life," Lovato adds. "Without you guys I wouldn't be here today."

"The journey that I've been on has been very, very difficult over the past few months," says a smiling Lovato, who was reportedly struggling with an eating disorder and self-mutilation. "I was dealing with issues that I know not only girl just my age, but of all ages are dealing with...I hope to one day raise awareness of everything just so I can help people, too, just like you guys helped me through this rough time.
I can't tell you how much light you guys brought into my life in probably the darkest time in my life," Lovato adds. "Without you guys I wouldn't be here today."
Inspite of being so successful, she's is a very down to earth and modest person. Let us all wish her luck for her future!!

Vampires And Goth
Vampires may seem like tools used by writers to make their story interesting and capturing. But looking at the fact that so many people obsess over these goths I could say vampires are not mere characters, but a magnum opus, stunning success of human imagination! Vampire legends have been recorded in almost every culture and regions of the world. Modern vampires, unlike the ancient ones, do not fear sunlight or garlic. They are attractive, charming and lovable being...! As the definition for vampires keeps changing from book to book the eerie and creepy aura these creatures create prevails.
Some people relate vampirism to porphyria, premature burial and contagion. Writing vampire novels has become a hobby for everyone. It has become a drug in teenage world! Monotonous exposure to anything is boring! So people should really find something spicier to write and read... I don't deny that vampire novels still are the best of them all but innovation is the key to greater success...
Take care...
Vampires And Goth
Myths and human minds are closely related. A mythical creature is an out-pour of human imagination onto paper. It is as intriguing as it is unconvincing. To many people it is convincing… Getting their facts verified may end up tragically for those who believe mythical creatures exist. Let’s talk about the most popular mythical creature –
VAMPIRES:
All interesting novels from Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles to Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series have added their personal touch to the gothic creature, Vampire.
Strike 1: Vampires are Goths. According to some they may be vicious and evil blood-drinkers. But Stephenie Meyer proved them wrong. Vampires could be charming and faithful.
Strike 2: Vampires exist. Living in the mortal world where humans have taken science and technology so far, can people actually believe in ancient myths and legends? That might sound more lame than fascinating to most. The human imagination has made this gothic being so alluring and captivating that people get carried away, misled and pretend to be so. People in many parts of the world are engaged in repulsive activities like drinking animal blood and killing humans because of the Goths!
Does that stop us from taking pleasure in them? No!
Strike 3: Vampires are human blood-drinkers. For those of you who don’t know, human mind’s eyes ‘see’ vampires of different kinds.
Sanguinarians are the human blood-drinkers. These are most commonly found in the grotesque tales and novels.
Psychic vampires are supposed to drain vital power humans in order to survive. Though not mentioned in many tales they are equally spellbinding as the blood-suckers.
We have all learnt to form opinions on the enigmatic creature – Vampire, without inferring anything out of the debate. The entire argument drops down to a CIPHER. Yet we must say they are master-pieces of human imagination! Let us hope I don’t disappoint the many ‘vampire’ fans existing on the earth….

PIRACY - Two sides of the same coin
Piracy may seem like a mediocre term. But if we look closely it is the commonest phenomenon or rather obsession in today's world. It sounds more like a revolution! Well... look at it this way -
If a person says that he has never downloaded pirated music, movies or software then he is a BIG FAT LIAR! We are people who have grown up with internet. Most of always get a feeling that if we find stuff on the internet or just right click and save it, it belongs to us. But most of the music, movies available on the internet are copyrighted. So downloading this is like stealing candy-bars from the stores. Not offensive yet not pleasing either. But that doesn't stop any of us from doing so. Today the sole purpose of internet is getting music, movies and other stuff free of cost! Why would anyone spend cash on something you get without spending a single penny? Does it make any difference? Well, if you don't have a problem with stealing pirated music on the internet then you shouldn't technically have a problem with shop-lifting CDs or DVDs from the store either, should you?
Now lets talk about how piracy is not exactly beneficial, but not repulsive or odious either.
Well, piracy is not technically odious. The fight for piracy starts with the publishers. Why do we need to encourage their motives for gaining profit when we have better choices? Don't we as customers have a right to get what we want, what appeals to us? Its time the publishers start offering products as per the customers demands! I think this should be convincing enough to make someone believe that piracy isn't a criminal activity. That's because its sole intention is to fulfill our needs without having to gulp doing everything that the publishers forcibly spoon-feed us.
