 Blog 6 Question 37

A physical trait that I always hated in high school would have been my weight. I have always been a heavier set guy and I think I would be able to lose weight if I put my mind to it. I just haven't really tried. I took weights classes in high school because they were an easy credit and weights were fun testing out how much you can physically put yourself through without dieing. I have always wanted to become skinny because it seems like skinny people have more opportunities compared to someone who is fat. From my perspective, girls prefer skinny boys more than the ones who are heavier. I don't think I really hate myself for being fat. I have learned to embrace it and I always think to myself, I can't complain about being fat because I don't really put in the work to become skinny. But in high school I was very insecure making me hate myself and that doesnt help the situation of me being fat. Another part of myself that I didn't really like was my freckles and moles on my arms. I was born with them and I feel like they make me look nasty or different from other people. I have learned to accept that they are who make up me and nobody ever looks at freckles on my arms to say ew! Those are nasty. Personally I have never really gotten mad when people have called me fat, or nasty names in the past. I just think to myself they must be in their own battles and move on embracing it. I never really hated myself for the way I am. I always would find a way to hate myself, making myself un confident, and insecure, not helping my situation at all.

  Blog Post 7 question 38 I work. To say I work is an understatement. I work a minimum of 40 hours a week at McDonalds as a manager. My shifts range from 11-7 to even 9pm-5 am. After I am working there 2 days a week I have to wake up early, go to college and do my college work. I want to stay working because if I stop working I don't want to begin to get lazy and later on in life not be successful. My parents also want me to be working my full time during college because I like to spend money and if I do that I need a job. It isn't always Mcdonalds that has me tired because of all the work I have to do, but I also do a lot of college homework to do in my free time. If I were to guess I get around 12 assignments a week. I really do love working but it can be tiring. I think these actions speak to who I am because my life consists of working at least every day whether it is college homework, work, or home chores.I think. I think about a million things every day. An article I just...

Blog #5 Question #19

 The first image that comes to mind when thinking of five images that come into my mind would be my first girlfriend. My first girlfriend happened at the beginning of my senior year of high school. I met her through work and thought she was super pretty but I had no confidence to ask her to go hangout, or even if she wanted to go out on a date. Sooner or later she asked me if I wanted to go to Walmart with her, I went to Walmart with her, and then being interrogated by her mother it seemed like things were moving fast. A week later me and her were hanging out and her cousin was over. I never would have the guts to ask anyone out I don't have any confidence and I would always wait for them to make the move. The cousin forced me to ask her out, and I did it. This is one of the most significant pictures in my head because it was a major part of my life. The second image that comes to mind is my workplace. This is because I have worked at McDonald’s for five years and it was my second ...
