For example, it shows us the risks of eating fast food, specifically McDonald’s fast food. Morgan Spurlock ate nothing but McDonald’s fast food for thirty days straight. He gained 25 pounds and also doubled his chances for heart disease. It took Morgan 14 months to lose his extra weight and he said it was nothing close to being easy. In addition, this movie shows the ways schools are affecting obesity in their students.
His family spent a great deal of time in the water and were always sailing to different places. Charles Moore was actually a woodworking and finishing business owner that sailed in his free time. Mr. Moore discovered the Pacific Garbage Patch on the way back from a yacht race in 1997 from Hawaii. To be more specific August 3, 1997 was when Captain Charles Moore discovered the garbage patch by accident. “Every time I came on deck, there was trash floating by” said by Captain Moore.
The day started by having to get up at two o’clock in the morning followed by a long car ride and normally when I am in a car I can fall asleep, but this morning I was too excited to do that. Then we had a long cold boat ride that took us to the hunting spot. I was hunting in a blind on Flat Lake. My Dad had won the blind in a raffle held every three years at Jerseyville. The blind was on 1 of 4 lakes in the area, roughly five miles from the Illinois River, and about 20 miles north of Grafton, Illinois.
The Florida Gators were playing that day so after we dropped our luggage off at our cabin, my boyfriend and I went to Crockett’s tavern to watch the game. Unfortunately the Gators lost to the Bulldog’s 17-9 and that led to one too many shots. After the game, instead of joining the rest of our family at the campfire I turned in and called it a night. The following morning I think I was the first one up, even before the kids! After breakfast we went to the dock and caught a boat to The Magic Kingdom.
I walk every day for 30 minutes and do sit ups, pushups, and side bends for 10 minutes five times a week. I have more energy than I did and I am now at the weight I want to be at. Don’t get me wrong I eat badly to. I figure if you take it out of your diet completely then you binge eat. I’ll eat fast food like once a week, but like the video says I make sure my portion size is not out of control.
English 9A: Growing Up: Family Narrative Mia Ippoliti My Family Narrative Last year my family and I took a spring break vacation to the beautiful state of Washington. Originally we had wanted to visit the Olympic Peninsula because of our love for the Twilight Saga book series but after researching on-line we realized that there was lots to see besides the infamous small city of Forks. We planned to visit the only rain forest in the United States as well as several wild nature beaches where we would spend low tide hours exploring the sea life inside of tide pools. We also planned to stay a few nights at two different Native American reservations on the west coast right on the Pacific Ocean! We named the trip "Our Wild Northwest Adventure."

Approximately 39 years earlier, the USA dropped a nuclear weapon (“Little Boy”) on this city killing nearly 90,000 people. Once we arrived in Hiroshima, we rode a bus to our duty station located in the city of Okinawa. The first few weeks in Japan were rough. Learning how to get around the city as well as learning the culture and language was a very big challenge, but I was willing to learn everything I could to make my stay in this country as comfortable as possible. My initial duty while on base was motor transport.
