I thought that the girls like me video was really sad. I think that its so sad that black people think their less beautiful because their skin color. I think that dark skin is so pretty. I think that people focus to much on skin color and it makes me really angry. I think that everyone is special and that they should embrace the differences.

On friday,we played monoply to show how different social classes are. When I play this game usually I really enjoy it because I have a lot of money and properties. In this version of monoply, I did not have any properties or hardly no money. At the end of the game I had 80 dollars and 0 properties. This was because of the new rules. Becasue I only got 36 dollars everytime after passing go, I had a hard time buying property. The point of this game was to try to see if you can try to go up in social class. I think this game proved to everyone that it seems to be a lot easier to move up social classes than it really is. in my group, everyone stayed in the social class that they started with. I feel that its sad that its so hard to move up in social class because I feel that there are so many hard workers out there that don't have the skills or oppertunities to move up in social class.

That movie about class was very interesting to me.I didn't really realize how many things are involved in what class you are in. I think its really interesting about the bread because I know alot of people who have plenty of money who love white bread, and alot of people who are in the lower class who like wheat bread. I think that one guy with the weird parted hair was so annoying. He would say that you need to have a part in your hair to look classy, but I thought he just looked weird. Its very interesting to see how different states are. For example, the bobing for pigs legs/feet was gross. I would never do that, but then I wonder if I would if I lived in that area? I still don't think I would.
