(Outside Reading #21) Multivitamins

I read the article called "Multivitamins:harmful, helpful or a wast of time? from kare11.com. Everyone seems to take multivitamins but new studies say they might all be a waste of money and do nothing for your health. Dr. David Winter said that the best way to get your vitamins are from fruit and vegetables, not from a pill. I agree with that and think that fruits and vegetables carry the purest of the vitamins because basically that's where they get all of them anyways. Then you know for sure that you are getting vitamins and don't have to go off a bottle. Dr. david Winter says only a few vitamins or minerals can be taken in pill form such as Vitamin D, B12, and Calcium. Otherwise he says most people don't need to take pills. I think if people want to get more vitamins they should eat simply fruits and vegetables, you can't get much purer than that!

All My Sons Blog

After watching the movie of All My Sons I think I understood the purpose more. In the book I never took that many of their sayings as aggresive or in an angry manner. In the movie a lot of the things the character said were in an angry tone. Also in the book I never thought Chris was that mad at his father but the movie displayed that Chris was super angry at his father and was pushing him away physically. I think it was good that we watched the movie of All My Sons because it really helped me understand the purpose of the book and what the characters were really trying to say.

(Outside Reading #20) Jamie Lynn Spears

I was reading an article out of Star Magazine about Jamie Lynn Spears and her pregnancy. The article was saying how Lynne, her mother, wasn't making things any easier. Lynne showed Jamie a video of a real natural childbirth and she threw up. Seeing the video made Jamie even more nervous for giving birth and made her want to get a C-section. I probably would not want to see a video of a mother giving birth if I was what, 17 and pregnant? All of the blood and screaming and pain that you saw would scare me too. Lynne spears did not help and just made things worse for Jamie. Thankfully her birth went well and the baby is healthy.

(Outside Reading #19) The A-List Chapter 26

In Chapter 26 of the A-List by Zoey Dean, Anna opens up to her father. In the beginning of the chapter Anna doesn't know who to talk to, she's a mess. She decides to call Cyn, her best friend. When she calls Cyn, she is with Scott. (Anna's old lover who she wanted to get away from) That made her especially sad and I would probably be a little sad if my friend had a perfect boyfriend that used to be with me but not anymore. After her conversation with Cyn, Anna's father comes into the room to talk to her. She tells him she's leaving for New York tomorrow morning and he apologizes for being a terrible father. FINALLY. He needed to apologize to her for all he's done. I would have left the first day if my father had been treating me like that. Anyways the chapter ended with Anna and her father getting to know each other a little bit better. Anna found out more about her father and Anna's father found out about her night with Ben. For the first time since she was 9, Anna's dad was there for her. My opinion is that she should give him a second chance and stay with him.

(Outside Reading #18) The A-List Chapter 25

In chapter 25 of the A-List by Zoey Dean, Anna finds herself home in her bed. She doesn't remember how she got there or what really happened after she puked all over Cammie. Surprisingly Dee was in her room. I would be very surprised if Dee out of all people would stay and help me if I were Anna. Dee explained to Anna the whole story that happened all the way to getting back into her room. Then suddenly Dee brought up Ben. I would have stopped her right there and said i'm not telling you anything which is kind of what Anna did except she's too polite to be like that. Turns out Dee called Ben's house last night but his mom said he never came home. Then Dee kept continuing and the chapter ended with Dee telling Anna that she was pregnant with Ben's baby. If I were Anna I would be shocked. I would also get a whole different view of Ben and I probably wouldn't want to go near him for a while. Ben seemed so innocent and nice in the beginning but it turns out that he might have just wanted some action from Anna.

(Outside Reading #17) The A-List Chapters 23 & 24

In Chapter 23 and 24 of the A-List by Zoey Dean, Anna gets Cammie back, unintentially. All of the girls are still offering left over food to the homeless. (Anna only doing it for the real purpose, all of the other girls HAD to do it for school) This one guy named parker that Anna met at the wedding asks her to take a walk with him. As she's walking, Anna starts to feel naucious and feels very cold all throughout her body. Parker gives her his jacket, which I think is really nice of him. He starts to tell her something about Ben but people call his name from the buffet. I hate when people start telling me something and then stop. That is something that really annoys me. He said he'd tell her later. Anna still doesn't feel very well so Parker goes to get her seltzer to make her stomach feel better but it only makes it worse. Suddenly Anna is pushed into a picture to be taken for the year book but before she can tell anyone to move becuase she really didn't feel good, she puked all over Cammie. The photographer got the picture of it perfectly as it happened. I hope that the picture goes into the yearbook because Cammie is a brat and she deserves that. Anna will probably be proud of that even though at first she was humiliated, i know i would.
