DYING TO BE THIN










Carolina Reston, a Brazilian model died this past week from anorexia. Just 21 years old, 5'8", 88 lbs (that's a BMI of just 13.8!!).
Her mother told the newspaper "no money is worth the life of your child, not even the most famous (fashion) brand is worth this."
It's pretty sad and scary i think.
One fashion designer on the CNN video said something to the extent that skinny was glamorous and he would not stop using skinny models, while other fashion designers have banned using models with BMIs less than 18.
Is thin beautiful? Thoughts?

I HEART RUNNING ROOM

Not that I didn't already know that, but I've discovered a new found love for the RR. Every Wednesday and Sunday I join the club to go running with them. For Free. (If I wanted to I could pay like 100$ to sign up for an actual clinic and I could also run with them on Tuesdays...but i'll stick with the free runs for now). The past couple of weeks I've been tagging along with the PB Clinic Group. We run hills, adding an extra hill each week. Today we ran 8 x 400m hills. very tough, but so much funner with a group. and the dude that lives by my place informed me that we ran a total of 11K including the warm up (he has a GPS watch). So that was awesome.
The other thing that is awesome about the running room is their webpage.
I signed up to be a member (again FREE) and with doing so you can track your training online! You add a shoe and it calculates your milage so you know when you're due for another pair, it gives you your weekly milage, you can add cross training, calculate how many calories you burned (762 today!) , you can put the conditions/weather during the run, it lists upcoming races...it does everything! well except actually going out and running for you.
I recommend you alllllll sign up on their webpage to become members! what better way to stay motivated!

PS> if anyone wants to proof read my paper on end-of-life I would lovvvve you forever! or at least greatly appreciate it :)

CLEULESS

Does anyone know how to make my links go to the top of the page rather than being hidden away at the bottom where nobody can see them??? And why are some white and some grey? what's up with that? I want them all the same color! Is this too much to ask?

I also want my picture in the side bar...any suggestions?

puh-leasssse

OK...Let's try this.
It was brought to my attention that my comment box thing doesn't always work...I know very little about this blog set up and how it works...Josh Simon set this up for me like 4 years ago maybe. Holy cats that's a lot of blogging!
Anyways, if anyone knows how to fix the comment problem, i am open to suggestions...i guess you could try commmenting a suggestion, but if that fails, email/msg me yo!
I also switched to a newer version of blogger just today...as far as I can tell not much has changed expect the fact that I sign in with my google email instead now...i'll play around with and see if there's anything new and fun i can do with it.
Later yo.

BAHHHHHHHHHHH
i want my old blog back! i switched it by accident and i don't know how to go back!
HELP!!!!!!!!!
