Weekend Post: Storytelling

This weekend, I saw a film called Alice in Wonderland. The movie starred Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Mia Wasikowska, Anne Hathaway and many others. This movie was about a girl named Alice Kingsleigh who when she was 5 had nightmares about a place called Wonderland. It then skips forward to when she is 19 and is proposed to by a lord named Hamish. She sees a rabbit and decides to follow it while Hamish proposes and she falls into a hole underground. There she meets familiar characters from her dream and has adventures in Wonderland trying to save her friends from the Red Queen.

Weekend Post

Hello, this weekend I went to Red Lobster after I picked up my sister who is home this weekend for her spring break. On Saturday, we stayed home to watch tv and talked for hours. Finally, on Sunday I visited some family friends visiting from England. I hadn't seen them since I was a toddler so it was good catching up.

Martin Luther King: The Other America

Martin Luther King jr. talks in his speech "The Other America"about Racism in America. He describes two Americas, the white America and the Black America. Though he wasn't as direct, he still talked about the actions of people in both America's. Racism in the U.S.A can be seen as Whites not wanting to be served in the same areas as Blacks, or whites not getting paid more than Black co-workers. America's problems are different to the ones they had in 1967 because America is less racist than it was before. With a Black President elected, America has also become less prejudice.

Weekend Post: News & Media (Weather)

This weekend it snowed a lot. We had the day off on Friday and so I slept late and played video games and watched tv. I also went shopping on Saturday. Hopefully it will snow a little bit more so we can get days off but not too much because our vacation could be cut short :-(

Flavanols

"While flavanols are naturally abundant in cocoa, unless you are specifically measuring and carefully handling a product throughout the manufacturing process, there is just no guarantee the product contains meaningful levels of the flavanols," said Mary Wagner, General Manager at Mars Botanical, a scientific unit of Mars, Incorporated dedicated to flavanol research and product development, and which recently launched CirkuHealth™ in the United States, a cocoa extract based dietary supplement.This quote is from the Chocolate Industry. This company makes Chocolate or Cocoa that sells throughout the U.S.

Weekend Post (Popular Culture)

This weekend is sadly my last weekend of my vacation. I had a lot of fun this past week especially Thursday. On Thursday, I went to the movies with my friend and we saw the movie Valentine's Day. It was really good and I would see it again., I'd also recommend for people who like comedy to see it. Here is a link to the reviews: NY Times Review. BTW in my last post I mentioned the olympics.I still haven't watched the 2010 Winter Olympics. As far I know, sadly G.B has only won 1 gold medal but I know they will catch up. Luckily, America is in the lead with 7 GOLD MEDALS , GO TEAM U.S.A !!!
