Holywood Diet

We all know that todays typical appearance should be utlra, ultra thin right? Well how can you say no when all you see these days on MTV are potentional wannabe models on the show Americas Next Top Model and girls with nice bodies dancing in the music videos. Famous actresses such as Lindsay Lohan, Jennifer Aniston and Paris Hilton fill the tabloids with their tiny bodies. So, how are girls today suppose to feel comfortable in their own skin? By going on Weight Watchers, joining Jenny Craig, the South Beach Diet and even the Hollywood Diet. NO! However, a lot of talking has been going on about the Hollywood Diet and how condtradictory it is.

Eric Greenspan, owner and chef of a restaurant in Hollywood says "They spend their whole lives obsessing over a healthy body, so they come to a restaurant like mine and order their salmon steamed and then wake up at 2 a.m. and go to Tommy’s and get chili cheese fries.” Boulevards in Hollywood are covered with hot-dog stands, taco carts and stand-alone cupcake shops that open every other month! As one of the young women in todays 21st century I feel that young girls shouldnt be pressured to change their appearances just because you have these wealthy young girls and women "drowning" in money, which most of them probably use to make themselves skinnier and younger looking =) So just be YOU!

Hmmm what else to write?

After constantly posting several blogs a month I start to think, "what else can I write about that interests both my audience and I?" Well I am stumped people! I mean yeah I can think of silly things to write but then that would not go with my whole them of "The Interests of a Young Woman." My goal is to seek for information about the outside world and to not write just about what goes on in my daily day-to-day routine. Because that would just bore me! Just kidding folks but anyway this is going to be a short one because I don't know what to write and if I did I would of course provide you with much more information than this. But do not fear I will be back with more interesting news and the latest gossip to last you with a year of conversational topics for you and your friends to enjoy!

A Tragic Hit & Run Story

Just yesterday a nineteen-year-old boy turned himself, accompanied by his parents, into the police. On Tuesday night, this boy (who will remain anonymous) was driving home form his job in Bay Bridge Brooklyn, where he works and resides, to give his older brother back his Mercedes- Benz. Traveling over the speed limit on Hylan Blvd. he hit a forty-two-year-old woman, wife and mother. Police say if the boy had not fled the scene he might have recieved a speeding ticket instead of now being faced with a felony charge of leaving the scene of a fatal accident.

Relatives of the forty-two-old woman says no matter how many tears rolls down ones' face, "you do not leave somebody dead in the street." I agree with this statement, as much as I believe the sorriful boy, you don't hit and then run from a crime, especially one you have just committed. The victims husband is upset that this nineteen-year-old boy has already been released from jail free of bail. He stated that "this is not a game."

Everybody LOVES Candy !!!

During Halloweeen season shelves in local stores are quickly emptied by trick-or-treaters. In many households bags of m&m's, snickers, skittles, milkyways, kit-kats and more fill a decorative halloween bowl. This bowl is used to satisfy the ghouls and goblins that walk the street on hallow's eve. However, those sticky lolipops and hard gumballs can get one's teeth in trouble. In a recent newspaper article the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommend both children and adults who wear braces to avoid candies that are "sticky, chewy, hard or crunchy." Doesn't that sound like every candy ever made? Well almost but not quite all. Plain chocolate candy is okay as long as the consumers brush and floss afterwards. However, bobbing for apples or eating those delicious caramel apples is not suitable. Patients can have thinly sliced apple pieces and can add flavor by dipping them in yogurt or creamy chocolate sauce. Yum! So for all those trick-or-treaters out there . . . BEWARE OF THE CANDY!
