Psych assignment on fast food

So I did an assignment for Psych class about fast food and I felt like sharing my answer because I felt so intensly about my answer. So here it goes:
"In regards to fast food; everyone knows it's bad for our bodies, yet pretty much everyone is america eats it and we are the 'fatest nation'. Everyday on TV we see advertisements for fast food restaurants and can't help but get tempted to want what we see repeatedly. Our brains get intoxicated with the media feeds us. (no pun intended). McDonalds advertises snack wraps, salads, and fruit parfaits; subway and their footlongs; taco bell and the fresco menu and then we see a Bally Total Fitness Commercial, weightwatchers, Alli, nutrisystem, etc.. Just because the fast food resturants are promoting these 'healthy' menus doesn't mean they are healthy at all. Fast food is called fast food for a reason because of the preservatives and not so fresh food they are able to keep prices low. As americans we make ourselves believe we can go through a drive through and order something off the fresco menu everyday and then go to the gym for 30 minute 2 times a week and wonder why were not losing weight. Or even be on weightwatchers or nutrisystem and not exercise and see no results it's because we are convinced by what we see on TV. We are humans we can't just pop pills and expect results with out the work. Psychologically we are pressured to look like Kim Kardashian, those guys from jersy shore and the models we see everyday on TV and the magazines because it's what society sees as beautiful. But realistically we don't see what happens behind the scenes and I think we fail to believe it. These social icons workout 6-7 days a week for 2-3 hours a time and pay for personal trainers to get them results, average americans can do that."

AVON

If anyone is interested in AVON, please let me know. My mother also sells AVON online as a representative- Marixa Moreno, IL. She has some pretty amazing offers, and I buy from her all the time, My fiance gets mad at me for it, but I love the products and surprisingly the FASHION as well.

Digital Cameras.....

So I was really frustrated becasue my fiance was trying to be nice and get me a camera so we can have our own finally, especially since were expecting in like less than two weeks, and it back fired on us. The camera SUCKED!!! It was a Nikon Coolpix. I was so excited, I felt like Ashton Kutcher was gonna pop out and take a picture with me, but no. I started to take pictures of my sons nursery to sent to family in Florida and the pictures were awful. Well low and behold we ended up returing it and getting a differnt on. I think its a Samsung. The pictures are coming out much better. I was just so disappointed that the Nikon didn't work like I thought it would. I guess you need the touch screen Nikon to be with the program, I don't know. Oh well I guess.

Life and Happiness

I'm so excited about so many things. I got my new furniture, I think my mom might be throwing me a baby shower this weekend, I saw Dear John, and I'm about to be 36 weeks. Almost done with my pregnancy. First I have to say Dear John was not what I expected. I really like it, and especially because my fiance took me to see it, but I think I was disappointed because it wasn't what I expected. I love Channing Tatum and I joke with my fiance about him being my boyfriend, but I know he's not exactly the best actor in the world, can not be compared to Johnny Depp at all. My couches are FABULOUS!!!! I bought curtains and pillows to go with the furniture. My next project is the bathroom. I want to decorate it in in black and white and the shower curtain I want is at Target. I haven't decided yet which one of two I'm going to get but I will get one of them.

My couches

My fiance and I decided we were going to get couches with some of our income tax money, and I can't wait until we can pick them up. I wanted to pick them up Sunday, but the next pick up day is Tuesday, which upsets me because Ben, my fiance, isn't off. We decided to get couches because I'm due in few weeks and these couches are going to be much more comfortable to have than what we have now. We currently have a 3 piece light beige leather set his mother let us have, but leather isn't comfortable after 10 or 12 years, so we thought it'll be a good idea for something new. I'm so excited, just because I'm home much more then he is and I can't wait to be more comfortable while watching T.V.
