Northwest Harvest

   Hi! Sorry I have only been posting weekly...I will try to get more active with my posting in January. Anyways, tomorrow my class is going on a field trip to Northwest Harvest, a food bank! There, we are going to pack food or do other things that will benefit those in need. I am really thankful for my teacher for making this field trip...since it's not made my the district; and she also has to get all of the parent drivers(who I also thank) to drive all of the students in my class, including me, to Northwest Harvest. I hope there is good weather, and I am really looking forward to it...I am also looking forward to something else...which is my birthday! It's on Friday, and I am really excited because that's the day my school(and many others) get out for Christmas break! So I'm also really pumped up about that too. This week is a pretty eventful week for me! :)

Christmas is Coming!

Hi! I realized I haven't posted in a week! Sorry about that...I have been so busy with my family getting Christmas decorations up. I am so happy that Christmas is coming! Are you? Since last year my family was traveling during Christmas, we couldn't get any Christmas decorations up :(. But this year, we definitely can, and we already have our Christmas tree up! Even though the lights outside the house aren't up yet, they will be by Saturday. The decorations are so pretty in the houses around us with all of the different colored lights and other things(there are so many other 'things' I can't really think of another name for them)! But even though Christmas is more of a giving holiday, most families also have a large feast with it. So remember to not make too many sugar cookies and not drink too much(or better, not any) soda! And if you do, you'll feel good about it the next day.:)

Soda...why it's bad

 As you know..the food that causes obesity is junk food, food that carries lots of fat and sugar and just isn't good for you. And one of the foods that can make you obese is soda! Soda carries so much sugar and once you drink it, you just can't stop drinking it until you can or bottle is all out! And, I had also heard on the radio that soda is a special kind of drink...it can somehow surpass your immune system and that means even if you drink a lot of it, you still won't be full. So...even if you have a big party, do what my family does and just get yummy juice instead! :)

P.S. : I just wanted to say that Priya is having a giveaway on her for a $65 gift card to use at CSN stores! For more info, click on this link. Thanks!

P.P.S. : I also hope you like the new layout...I tried to make it sort of a mellow Christmas theme.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope you have a great time and yummy feast! Check out the Google logo today! If you drag your mouse over each plate and click on it, Google will show you the recipe for making that dish! :)

Veterans Day

 Happy Veterans Day! Hope you have a great one! Thanks to all veterans and soldiers that are fighting now...they are fighting for our country, and people should show lots of gratitude to them.

Fast food on CBS Evening News

 I had just seen an interesting story on the CBS Evening news about how fast food is attracting so much more kids, and not fighting obesity...here is a link. Hope you like the story...:D

Hello again/elections

      I am so sorry I haven't been posting in such a long while! I have so much work and life is just too busy for me. But now I will try to post more regularly. :D

     I am not sure what about obesity I should talk so I'd rather talk about another topic that has interested me. That topic is elections. Even though they are over now, I still have been thinking about them. The republicans have surprisingly fought back against the democrats. At least they didn't get senate majority( I'm a democrat, but if you're not think of that the other way around). But I am so happy now that all those television adds are done!!! They were really getting on my nerves. My teacher also told me that one day she had gotten about 30 political fliers in her mailbox.

   Sorry that elections isn't the topic you would expect from my blog, but I just wanted to say a little bit about it. Again, sorry about not posting in a while.
