I mean how could we expect a four year old to deal with the stress of a pageant without a full body massage? The more pampered the better! These days it’s become simple to turn a living breathing toddler into a barbie doll. Not only pretty like a barbie doll, but also the fake, plastic-like perfection of a barbie as well. Their skin is perfect with the help of fake tans and more makeup than the average woman will wear in her entire lifetime.

Describe the costumes in The Nutcracker and discuss their effectiveness. Choreographer: Matthew Bourne Costume Designer: Anthony Ward The costumes in Matthew Bourne ‘The Orphanage’ scene was overall very effective, I understood the performers characters straight away because their costumes are simple. Firstly, all the orphans are wearing dark colours, the girls wore a dark grey long dress with long sleeves and had three buttons to keep the dress shut. The boys wore a lighter grey long sleeved shirt and high waist black trousers, the shirt was tucked into the trousers which suggests the children have manners. Anthony Ward’s intention of the dark colours was to show how the children were feelings because they are orphans so they are unhappy and the orphanage is a dull colourless place so the children should feel the same.
The Toddlers and Tiara girls go through hours of make-up, to different hairstyles, and wearing big fake wigs. They get spray tans, and even fake teeth known as flippers. The girls look so ridiculous for their age and at what a cost. These parents are spending thousands of dollars just to teach their kids that beauty is on the outside. This sort of behavior is only setting children up for body image and mental health issues later down the road.
In “Barbie Dream House,” there are 3 Caucasians, 1 African, and 1 that doesn’t show her face.

Later at the checkout isle, Mother noticed that I was holding a huge Hersey’s candy bar bigger than my head. I had grabbed it in my fall from the plummet of Mount Everest. At that moment, the Publix manager walk up behind the cashier and informed us that she would let me have it for free, which in the end, made me feel like I had been handed a million dollars. To prevent this incident from ever happening again, Mother bought a dog leash from the animal isle. From that moment on, before I ever set foot into a store, Mother would loop the dog leash around my waist and hold the other end.
Formal Observation of Barbie ™ Bungee Jumping Problem: How will the mass affect how many rubber bands are needed to safely and efficiently bungee jump Trisha while achieving the closest distance to the ground? Background: Bungee Jumping is a pass-time involving jumping from a stationary or moving object while connected to an elastic cord, usually involving extensive calculations to prevent most if not all fatalities.

There were two mats and both had a giant ring that would keep wrestlers aware if they’re about to step out of bounds. There I met Coach Mickey he was a goofy looking guy, but was a good wrestler very technical. Coach Mickey was the first person to teach me how to shoot a double leg. After weeks and weeks of training I perfected it and started learning other wrestling techniques, leg single legs Russian ties and head and arms. My first wrestling match was a duel meet with one of our rival schools, Coral Gables; they weren’t the best but it served me well on applying the techniques I learned on those couple of weeks that passed.
