My Thanksgiving


For my thanksgiving went to a family friends house and spent the night there. We got there at like 2 and started eating right away. I stuffed like four of my moms deviled eggs down my throat and had some cheese and crackers to start off my thanksgiving feast. Im really not into thanksgiving food that much so i stocked up on the cheese and crackers for a while just to use the excuse at the dinner table later that i wasnt hungry. For the next couple of hours while turkey was finishing up and the stuffing was crisping in the oven i sat on the computer checking my facebook. I was the only teenager there and didnt feel like being a babysitter!!!! so when dinner was finally ready i filled my plate with biscuits and mashpotatoes. Yeap thats it! and i barely ate that. So as everyone else was eating and talking i was sitting there staring at my plate for about a half an hour until i was excused. After dinner was done i entertained the children for a little while, while the dinner was getting cleaned up. THEN I ATE PUMPKIN PIE. MY FAVORITE! after i had a couple pieces we all hung out for hours! We had a jumprope contest and played games.

Beauty Bias


While I was the article of Beauty Bias i continuously gained more support toward the criminalization of discrimination on the basis of looks. There is no way someone should be fired because they gained weight, like what was said in the article. And no woman she feel shes not beautiful because she doesnt measure up to the celebrities who can afford plastic surgery. i honestly believe every woman is beautiful in her own way and no one should have the right to tear her down and make he feel less than that.
When the article stated that 11 percent of surveyed couples would rather abort their own child than know that it might be obese i cringed. Why would anyone want to get rid of their own chile because of the chance it might be obese. That really angers me. Its called feed your child nutrious food.

Then the realistic part of me set in. Theres really no way America can just put a law out there to change everyones ways it just wont happen.
