Everybody is perfect they way they are!

Today's society is way to focused on outer appearance. Women are made to think they have to be a size 0 just to be considered attractive. I think thats horrible!

Women should be happy and feel good about themselves inside and out no matter what size they are. As long as they're happy with the way they are who cares whether their a size 0 or a size 18. I'm not saying we should eat fast food ever day until we can't get off the couch. I'm simply saying that as long as you're healthy and happy it shouldn't matter if you have a little junk in the trunk. 

All around us in movies, TV, magazines its portrayed that being thin is the way you're supposed to be. I was watching America's next top model when Whitney the plus size model won and shortly after winning she was in Cosmo Girl in a bikini. To me she looked like a normal size girl you would see at the beach in a bikini. So who decided what plus size was anyways? Just because she has curves and eats like a normal person we're calling her PLUS size that's outrageous. Then they wonder why girls are becoming anorexic and bulimic. Give me a break! 

To me plus size is when you have extra meat on your bones....not just having big bones! I'm not talking 5 lbs over your ideal weight either. I'm talking Lane Bryant shopping, a little flab under your arms ( ladies you know what I'm talking about..that old lady hang), your thighs actually touch, and knowing what your good angle is for picture taking so we don't catch that extra chin. None of this stuff is bad either every extra thing you have makes you who you are. That extra weight might make you the pleasant upbeat person you are. So if you have some extra pounds embrace them and enjoy your life. 

Every girl wants to be considered attractive whether they're willing to admit it or not. Every women is beautiful in her own way. Ladies don't ever let someone make you feel like your not pretty just because you have a little more to you. Just remember thats more of you to love and any guy who can't accept that isn't worth your time.

I have one more thing to say....Did you ever notice how big men aren't fat only fat women are fat..by this I mean that it's perfectly acceptable for a man to be overweight or even obese and that doesn't stop a women from loving him. But if a women were a bit on the heavy side she would be seen as lazy and unhealthy. Isn't that kind of unfair?

If I Had A Million Dollars

If I were super rich like all these pop stars and actors you see now a days I don't think I'd spend my money on insane things like they tend to do.

Personally I don't see the point in buying a $5000.00 pair of panties. I can buy a $6 pair and chances are they're doing the same thing. I don't understand why they spend $15,000 on a dress when you can spend $100 or maybe even less and have a dress that's just as beautiful. Do you really need expensive things to make you feel pretty?

I'm not going to lie I'd probably buy a few things that I didn't absolutely need to have that are a little pricey but I don't think I'd go over bored like you see on those Fabulous Life of shows. 

If I were super rich like some of the celebrities today I would:

*Put myself through school...the only thing stopping me from going right now it the money. I don't feel like being in debt for the rest of my life. I'd like to go so that is definitely one of the first things I'd do with all my money.

* My sister's about to graduate high school this year and she's an incredibly bright person. But again she doesn't have the money to go to school and my parent's certainly can't afford to pay for it. So she's putting it off until she can afford the local community college. Not bad but I wish I had enough money to put her through school as well. She's going to do something great someday so school would be a great investment if I had all that money.

* My parents are having a really hard time keeping up with bills right now. If I had the money I'd pay off whatever they owe on our house. That way they wouldn't have to stress so much and they would have more money to go out and do things like vacations. 

* My brother isn't real big on school and I don't think he has any plans of going to college. Kind of disappointing because he's also pretty bright when he applies himself. But it's his life so if he decided to go I'd pay for his school and if he didn't I think I'd buy him a car. He just turned 16 and I always wanted to be one of those kids who were surprised when they woke up on their 16th birthday with a car with a big bow in the driveway so it would be nice to be able to do that for him. 

* My mom used to own her own company and she did an amazing job. She took it from our house to a good size building make a pretty decent amount of money. When she chose to do it my brother, sister and I were all younger so we couldn't be of much help. My dad helped but he was also running his own business so there was only so much he could do. She was forced to close the business after some major setbacks. Now my mom tells us about how hard it was to do it by herself but how great it was to have done it. I know that if she had the financial backing she would definitely do it again and my guess is she would blow the competition away. So if I had the money I would definitely invest in her business so she could give it another try. 

* My dad's family is really important to him but unfortunately most of them live down in Texas while we're here in Illinois. Needless to say he doesn't get to see them very often. I know he misses them, he's always trying to get them to come up for the holiday's and when we have some extra money he takes us down there to see them. If I had the money I'd buy him some property down near his family that way he could go visit whenever he wanted. 

Do something with yourself

Everybody has it in them to be something great it's up to you to decide whether your going to live up to your full potential or just coast through life.

I'm always reading in magazines about these people who are doing so much with their lives. Helping save starving kids, starting their own clothing lines, building schools in third world countries and so much more. I read once about this young girl, I think she was about 15, and she had started her own clothing line. Just recently I actually saw her on America's Next Top Model I think it was. That's amazing to me that this young girl has accomplished so much already. Then I look at what I've done and I'm not going to lie sometimes I'm a little disappointed with myself that I can't seem to get it together and do something great. 

I'm a very indecisive person but I don't lack in the creative department at all. I'm always coming up with ideas for businesses to start or things I can do with myself...Things I want to fix in the world and things that need to change. My problem is deciding what to do and how to start. 

What's your excuse? Every day you wake up you have a chance to do something great with your life. You should make the most of it and live every day as if it were your last. Now if only I could take my own advice I would be in business.
