Weather #1

Our moods express a lot of who we are to the world every time we see someone or talk to them. We know we control our moods and maybe somethings affect our moods. What about weather, does that affect how we're feeling? According to Rich Maloof in his article Does Weather Really Affect Our Moods? the weather shouldn't affect the mood of an emotionally stable person very minimally or even not at all. His article goes on to talk about how to deal with fluctuating moods like that. I disagree. I am odd in that I'd rather it was rainy and cloudy than sunny and bright but except that fluke, when I wake up to find it overly bright out it ruins my mood a bit and when I wake up to the pitter of rain my spirit lifts. Maybe after that point it doesn't do much on my mood (mostly because I never see outside our dungeon of a school) but it still changes how I start off the day. While I have no scientific evidence in my favor I still think that how you wake up has an affect on your day and there for the weather affects our moods.

SOLD!

Sold an amazing book by Patricia McCormick. Sold into prostitution by her step-father. Lakshmi is thirteen. She lives in small town Nepal, when sold by her gambler of a step father to pay his debt and to feed the family in the warding drought. At first Lakshmi thinks she is going to live as a maid in a big fancy house. Then the woman who bought her first whom she calls her auntie sells her to a man she calls 'Uncle husband' because he says she can pretend he's her uncle but if anyone asks to say he is her husband. Together he takes her across the boarder to India. In India he sells her to Mumtaz. She is a cruel woman who runs a whore house. At first Lakshmi refuses to give herself up to her new life and Mumtaz tries first to beat her and then decides the only way toget her to do what she wants is to drug her. She drugs Lakshmi in her tea and a man with 'fish lips' breaks her. In the end she says the only american words she knows "My name is Lakshmi. I am from Nepal. I am fourteen years old."
