      By far my favorite project was the one by Chelsea Donovan about eating disorders because it is something that I apparently have. well, I am going to set the rumor straight I do not have an eating disorder. I eat when I am hungry. I stop eating when I am full. I have no control if I gain the weight or not I never have had any control. I used to make my self eat so much that I would get sick, and for what? to please a bunch of people who don't even matter. I no longer care what people think of my body. My body is mine and I love it the way it is. I wouldn't change a thing.(unless I could have bigger boobs. I would love bigger boobs.)

      For quite sometime now, I have known my passion in life. My passion in life is protecting people children in particular I want to stop child abuse as you may have read in my previous autobiography we wrote in first semester I talked about my past and my experience of being abused physically by my mothers ex-boyfriend. I have always wanted to help kids who were in a situation like mine. I want to let them know that they are not alone, but mostly I want to put an end to child abuse. I would like to start going to elementary schools and talking to the children who the administrators think might be abused at home. All types of child abuse are horrible it makes no difference if the abuse is mental or physical abuse is abuse and it must be stopped I would do what ever it takes to help a child who has been abused because I have been in their shoes. I know what its like to not have someone believe you.

    Children are resilient they are some of the toughest humans I know and I think that given the right tools they can be so much more than what they are told they can be.

    Child abuse is a big problem in all parts of the country and the world it doesn't matter where you are many children get abused and neglected.

  I know I may have gotten off topic on this, but I hope you enjoy it.

Many times as a child I knew the feeling of hunger opening the cabinets to find nothing in there and I mean nothing. when I see companies like the Good Spread Peanut Butter company which gives a package of peanut butter to a person in need for every package sold. If you would like to know more about the Good Spread company then click Here to find out more. A TON of food is wasted every year. the solution is simple when a large manufacturing company has produced too much of a product why not give it away to a food bank rather than throw it away. There is a new thing going around you may have even seen a meme about it on Facebook and thought this can't be true, but it is. I'm talking about the suspended coffee. What's a "suspended coffee?" you ask well when you go to your favorite coffee house and order a cup of coffee or a pastry order a second and have it suspended this suspended cup of coffee is a good way to give back to the people who would otherwise do without. Companies like these are the ones people should use because they give back to the world.

    Guys I have a problem. A problem with "Bad Verbs" I need to get help. after reading the article I defiantly found out that I use many verbs in the wrong way. For example, before I read the article I was more than guilty of using many verbs in the wrong way. I often will use lay rather than laid, lie rather than lay and in true Missourian fashion I seen something rather than saw something.

The article was very helpful to me. It helped me fix some of my most common grammar mistakes I feel like this article is going to help me become a more fluent writer. I plan to use these rules in my future writing in this class. I however do not see the point in reading the article. I guess I just learn better by seeing the rules in practice not with just reading.
