Things About School to Change

I would like to change the lunches that are served. I liked the way the food was before the state law was passed for healthy food in schools to reduce childhood obesity. Another thing would be to change the classes that are required to take to graduate. I believe that if your not interested in the class why should you have to take it? It makes no sense to me to waster your time taking a class that is not going to benefit you in your future. Example; If I didn't have to I would not take an English class because I really don't enjoy literature and have a difficulty trying to find the "meaning" of what an author wrote. I could care less what he/she "means" by writing.

No School Tomorrow

I'm looking forward to having no school tomorrow. Its nice to have days off from school. I wish we only had to school for 4 days instead of 5. I think there should be a day off on Wednesdays, its right in the middle of the week so it gives you a break. It would be helpful if your having a stressful week. I know people would say well that's what the weekend is for but I just don't feel that is necessary to go to school almost everyday of the week. Its very complicated to type with a splint on my left hand.

Ideal Man and Woman in American Society

I believe that the ideal man in American Society is portrayed to have a muscular build and is able to support his family. There are so many ads for products to make you lose weight and gain muscle mass that I find it a little ridicules.
I believe the ideal woman in American Society is portrayed to have a slim figure with long hair and big breasts. There are a lot of ads for make up as well as fragrances for women. Alls that I really have to say about this subject is that people of both sexes are depicted to be "perfect" and I think this is just a marketing scam for companies to make money. It works for them but it shouldn't people should be happy with the way they are. I can understand that some people may actually want to lose weight to better their self fitness and some people may buy make up and self care products to make themselves look good for certain occasions but other than that I don't see how so many things are needed.
