i stole this idea from Nadia... our points overlap alot
is barbie a good role model
pros
-well educated (how else could be both a doctor and an astronaut)
-she's can support herself (she works some pretty sweet careers)
-she has held a stable relationship with ken for years
-she has a good relationship with her sister (thanks nadia)
-she has racially diverse friends (thanks nadia)
cons
-unhealthy body image
-due to here many careers i think she has trouble holding steady employment
-she only socializes with people of here own socio-economic class (all her friends are
also doctors, astronaunts, vets, etc)
-she continues to date ken though he still hasn't proposed after 40 years
at this point i think its her turn to do the asking
-she supports genetic eperimentation (how else did she get a pink peguses)
-she doesn't wear a bra

random people in times of need
lately i've really been noticing just the small everday occurances with strangers taht are so cool, it seems there is always some random stranger to meet your need... or at least mine lately
i first started realizing this on new years when right when the snow picked up to the point i could barely see a snow plow appeared out of nowhere and basically lead me almost the whole way to my destination
another cool one happened in the grocery store.. as anyone that has spent any prolonged amount of time with me knows i cough... alot but when i get an actual cough well then it sounds like my lungs are going to come out, well the other day i was having a coughing episode in the grocery store, i had set down my basket and was taking a break to from looking at the cheeses to clear my throat which at this point was begging for a cough... well this old lady turns around as soon as i had finish the coughing fit and hands me a pack of halls saying that they had been in her pocket for forever and she wasn't using them so i might as well have them... they hit the spot and soothed my sore throat back to health.
these little bits of life are amazing and i am thankful for the randoms i meet as while my friends are amazing and cool, the randoms that help out deserve some special recognition. these small little events in ones daily life are often overlooked, which is a shame. Anyways be nice to the snow plowers and the elderly because they are cool... oh and if the lady that gave me the halls happens to stumble across this, thanks again
