A Bit Of Jonas (School virson)

In all honestly I don’t know exactly who inspires me. When I’m asked who inspires me A few humans come to mind. Those few are Pete Wentz, and the Jonas Brothers. I guess I consider Pete my Idol, someone I can really look up too and make me go “Why, I want to be like him”. Then again, the Jonas Brothers changed me a lot since when I was younger. I guess Jonas Brothers have had the greatest impact on me, and for some odd reason Joe has caught my attention the most He isn’t the song writer (Well they write together, but Nick writes most of the music), he isn’t the strongest of the three. He seems honestly different then his brothers, not like so different that he will smoke pot and have sex before marriage. He just seems different? I can’t exactly explain why.

First, I will start talking about all three boys. Each one is special, but they all seem like genially nice guys. Kevin, he is the sweetest of the three. He seems like a goof but he is willing to love whomever he meets. He tells you the truth, but is a sweet heart about it. Nick is a genius, no questions asked. The boy can make anything sound beautiful. His songs are outstanding for his age. He seems so grown up, and so strong since he is battling Diabetes. He is indeed Mr. President. Now Joe, as I like to call him, Joey. He is weird; he’ll do anything to make someone laugh. He is simply a goof. He can make me laugh when I don’t even want to smile. Then there is the depression. Honestly no one talks about it (I think Disney tries to hid it). Most of the fans don’t even notice it. I think only the fans that have had, or do have depression know exactly what is going on. I believe his goofiness is a cover for it. The boy has matured a lot since his younger days, but sometimes he looks like as if the world hates him.

I find weird things in people that inspire me, like Joe. He hides his depression with laughter and goofing off. That’s how I work. I see the similarity in it. Then theirs the purity rings, I’m not Christian but I find the belief in the rings something good, that kids should look up too. Like I said, those boys changed my life. The funny part is though, I hated them one time. I liked them when they started out, but once they hit it big I figured their pure images would change. During that time I hated them I found myself with bad friends and with a life I didn’t like were it was going. I ended up self harming and hating my life. I fell into a depression that I hid extremely well. Then these boys popped up again. Life changed. I started to listen to them, and getting to know them as people again. I found out they weren’t as bad as I thought; they were so much better. Slowly I saw a change in myself. I transferred high schools and I ended up buying a purity ring after a while. It’s the first time in my life that someone I don’t even know can cheer me up on my bad days. When I’m down I just watch a Jonas video from their youtube, and then everything seems better.

I paid more attention to Joe, I noticed. I don’t know exactly why. I think all the boys are amazing but Joe stood out. Maybe because I feel as if he goes through periods of depression like myself so I can relate to him better? I even noticed people treat him kind of like people treat me. Honestly I don’t try to let people’s mean words about the boys or him get to me. I don’t care what people think of me or of what I do. For some reason I take it personal when people make fun of the Jonas brothers because to me they saved my life. If it weren’t for them I wouldn’t be here right now. That’s probably why I take it personal, those boys helped me through a lot and it upsets me that people would make fun of them, without even knowing them.

So the Jonas Brothers were the ones who have impacted my life the most. I know this essay will get laughed at because people believe that they are just some sort of dumb boy band, but in fact they are real people. They have emotions, and heart. It shows when they perform and write. I honestly don’t care that most people my age hate them. The Jonas Brothers are good, wholesome boys. They have clean music that is inspiring. The only thing that turns people off about them is that they are signed with Disney. Most Disney music I admit, I don’t like and is extremely bad. These boys though have talent and I believe that Disney is holding them back. This isn’t the last time you heard of them. They haven’t shown exactly what kind of talent they have yet. Someday we’ll see though, these boys are talented, heartfelt, intelligent, genuinely sweet humans. They are a force to be reckon with!

Awww, this is so sweet. I myself view Pete Wentz as an idol so kudos to you. Although I don't like the Jonas Brothers, I have to say this is something I'll think about the next time I hear their names. In fact, I didn't know anyone who listened to them could be saved. I heard they listened to My Chemical Romance when I actually was infatuated with them and that band saved me, and I lost interest in the JBs, but I think I'll make an exception to listen to them every once in awhile.
