Free, Fun Excercise!!!

      Do you want some free, fun excercise? Well, I have an  idea. You can watch your favorite TV show AND still exercise! All you have to do is some simple moves to start out with. You can first do jumping jacks while watching your fave show. You can even (just to start out with) do it during a commerciale. Then you can lift some dumbells, jog in place, etc. Try it! :)

EXERCISING ON A BUDGET!!

It's very easy to exercise on a budget! For example: walking, biking, or running to work is great for someone on a budget. It's good because you're getting exercise and you're SAVING MONEY!! by walking, biking, or running to work, you save money on gas because you are not using a car! Those are just a few ways to excercise on a budget but they're are so many more!!

Check Yo'self Before You Wreck Yo'self

Hahaha...

 

 

This is the best advice I can ever give someone. I accidentally smashed two of my fingers in my car door Saturday night. It was my index and middle finger on my right hand, which is terrible because I'm right handed and has now forced me to do everything left handed, which is not a picnic in the park.  So, here's my story...

 

 

I went to Wal Mart Saturday night because nothing is open in Georgetown past like 8pm besides Wal Mart, so I…

photoshop reveild

 

   I think photoshoping is bad because they don't show teens and other people what thier looking at.Pphotoshoping also is making people think that it's real, so they try and try to be like the people in the magizines, and end up like, well, a crazy, discombobulated, person. People shold put warning stickers on magizines that are photoshoped because than people WILL know what they are looking at.

So in order for me to communicate with all of my familia i…

I think its its okay as long they tell them and do not make other people fell bad. But in the same case idont think they should be doing it  because that means that they are lying .well if people want to ly and not show there natural beaut it is up too them .but some times i fell bad  but i do not realy care . so do not fell bad about your self because you see other people in magizien  those are just computer animated  always feel good about your self because every one is special in a different… Continue

Photoshopping?!?

photoshopping is completely wrong. the images that the media shows are completely fake. the "beauty" of models is made up. computer technology allows people to mess with our idea of perfection. magazines, movies, books, the internet, and even 'reality' tv shows. but are they really reality when the actors have been so dramatically changed?? girls might look at these pictures and think that beauty is whats displayed by the media.…

photoshop real

Photoshopping is horrable because it dosent let girls see their bueaty that they realy have. They make girls think that they are not as good as anyone else but the truth is they are bueatiful just the way they are.They should have a label that says this is not real on photoshopping papers.

photoshop revield

I think peole should know the photos are being changed so the readers won't try to change them selfs into something that could probley never happen. I also think that the photos should not be change and show what the persone really looks like to represant natural beauty.Those pictures should demanstrait the look behind the change.

Photoshop:True or False?

FALSE.

In Latinitas we recently watched a few short videos on photoshop. Browsing through the before and after shots was mind-blowing. Waists were inches smaller, thighs were toned, butts were virtually erased, the only thing that seemed to get BIGGER was the hair!These false images look fake, yet we precieve them as unatainable perfection. I believe that the reason we don't view these images as frauds is because girls want to be able to relate and look like the models in…

photoshop revealed!

I knew that magizines retouched photos but i never knew how much they did it! I dont think a little bit of retouching is so bad just not a lot of it. And i do think they should put  a label saying that the photos have been retouched to let girls kow that those pictures are'nt real, so they don't need to feel so bad about themselves.
