HW 18

When it comes to thankgiving for me its pretty much the samething every year where we all go to my grandmothers house everyone tends to make alot of food and from there we just talk and eat. i think that the food is the main event because thankgiving pretty much just revolves around food. what we do before we start eating is that someone at the table would say grace and that person would usally pray for love ones that they might have lost or other things they feel they need to pray for. Also the other thing thats tend to happen is we watch football while we are eating because at the time we are sit down to eat thats the only good thing to watch every year. One thing that happens afterwards is that people tend to get very lazy afterwards and they just want to sit down and not do anything or just watch TV and the main reason for that is we see all this food there so we try to eat as much as we can than we overdue it to a point where we get really lazy.

HW 17

My experences to illness and dieing hasnt been that extreme i can say. when it comes to the illness part i can relate a little bit because i get the common cold once and a while which is normal because mostly everyone gets the cold here and there. other than that i havent really experenced any real bad illness besides that. when it comes to the death part i can also relate as well because a few years ago my godmother died. it was a big deal to be because i was close to her so the day that she died was a very sad day. besides that i havent experences any other deaths in the family. the way i was tought to think about illness and dieing was not to really talk about it because there both of those things are not something you really want to talk about. because when you do it kind of gets depressing and sad depending on if the person is really sick or if the person has passed away. The social norm i feel is the same as i learn where you really tend not to talk about it and sort of ignore it because these topics are depressing. I think that the reason people dont like talking about both of these things because at one point or another its going to happen to all of as where we might get really sick or we might pass away and life so short that people try to ignore it as much as they can because they dont want to think about it happening to them.

HW 11 - Final Food Project 1

For this part of the project i was going to change my diet which was going to be not eating meat for a few days. The first day was pretty Ok for breakfast i didn't eat anything because i Dont really eat breakfast and i woke up late. for lunch i had a soup which contained no meat. One thing i did notice after eating the soup was i didnt feel to full i felt just right which was cool. in between lunch and dinner i didn't have anything. for dinner i had pasta. after i ate it i felt a little more fuller than how i felt for lunch but not over doing it. The next day i didn't eat any breakfast, for lunch i had a a slice of pizza which was good. for a snack i ended up having a banana. for dinner i ended up having cereal which was also good.
My experience even though it was a short one was that being a vegetarian is not that hard when you eat something different each time. if i were to keep going with this it might start getting a little harder just because you haven't eaten meat for awhile and other people around you are and you kind of feel like doing it, but other than that if you keep doing this and not eating meat you will end up not feeling the need to eat meat anymore.
