Wednesday (today), there was a presentation on Eating Disorders. It was not the one about eating disorders in sports though. But, they both shared very interesting information that was actually really scary. I remember them saying 1 in 5 girls had eating disorders and I thought that was outrageous. Eating disorders seem to be very serious and these two presentations (The one about sports, and the one that wasn't especially)really gave a lot of information that I didn't know about. I didn't know that it was genetic and that it wasn't always something that you made yourself do because it can be mental as well.

Romeo and Juliet PLN Entry


Romeo and Juliet is a very confusing story. It is very interesting but the word choice can be odd when you first look at it. I enjoy reading Rome and Juliet though because it makes understanding the way things were done back in The Elizabethan Era and how people usually lived. I also think it's interesting to read it because you can compare it so well to todays society. For instance, they are both very different because in society in most free countries, you are allowed to choose who you marry. But they are similar because usually your family wants to respect the people you marry or love and if they don't then they usually exclude them. But in todays world, usually people can be honest and just tell their family who they want to marry and they will understand.


Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare.
