Yesterday the sixteenth of September, I went to challenge day. It was a very great experience. I learned a lot about people who I would have never guessed faced the same problems as me. This experience made me feel closer to those people in my class. Challenge Day showed me how important it is to let all the feelings out that you keep trapped in side of you.
I also learned that you should act the way you want. Not because people tell you to. For example many boys are told to act as a man. Sometimes they want to be compassionate, they want to cry, and they should be allowed to. Crying is not a sign of weakness but a sign that you are alive. Same thing goes for girls, moms are always saying to be a lady, not to burb or fart or say fart. this is the reason why boys believe that they can control us, because we let them. We show them that we are not equal.
Those who have never done Challenge Day should consider doing it. It is life changing event but in a better way. Many people have stated that they changed the way they live after having gone to Challenge Day.

New Ipod
Last weekend I bought an Ipod classic. I know it is not the greatest like the Ipod Touch but I find it pretty awesome. The classic has 160 GB and can do pretty much the same thing as the touch. The Ipod classic cost approximately 255 dollars. I also bought a chrome case so I will not scratch my new Ipod classic. There are many different types of cases that you can get for the classic.
The down falls of the classic are that it is very big. Also it is a very fragile tool. The classic takes a lot of responsibility to handle if you do not want it stolen. They also only come in two colors, silver and black, I bought the black one. I really enjoy having the ipod classic it is my favorite music player by far.
Doll Face
The video Doll Face, on youtube, I believe tells a story of how the media has an affect on what you think about your self. This shows by when the face on the robot starts to change the appearance by what they see on the television. Many people change the way they look to fit in when they should just be themselves.
As the doll keeps moving forward with the television it keeps changing its face. This to me shows how change happens and most people go along with the change. When they look like someone on the television it makes them feel good. But, when the people on the television start to change you feel as though you need to change with them.
When the television keeps moving but the robot can not, it keeps on trying. To me this means that the robot is obsessed with being like the face they see on the television. The robot eventually breaks the chain it is connected to and crushes its face. This to me shows that the robot became to obsessed with looking like everyone else. Finally, the chain the robot was on broke and crushed the face that it maked over. When the face was crushed I thought that that meant that the television took over the robot making it do anything that went against how it already looked.
