"I think it's really interesting that people still strive for light skin, because it was like that in the 1800s in the U.S. I don't understand what changed things but it wasn't for the better. Life would be so much easier and safer if…"

"i think its stupid for people to go to tanning salons. to me its a waste of money and it causes skin cancer. why would some one in their right mind pay to eventually have cancer. doesn't seem right to me"

"I always have pale skin, but i never have the urge to go fake tanning, id rather sit outside and get a tan that way, even if i end up burning instead."

"I do not have an opinion of tanning. I never do it, but I get tan anyways. I hate orange girls, there are way too many of them everywhere. My mom got a spray tan once, and she looked ridiculous, as do most girls. Does no one tell them how they look?…"

"This honestly drives me insane. The need to be so tan is so unnecessary. Yeah, I might be a little bitter because I know I'll never be tan. But let's be honest, being pale shouldn't be anything to embarrassed of. I hate hearing…"

Josh Jyawook commented on Darby Douglas's blog post The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?
"I think that if girls (or some boys) want to go tanning to feel better about themselves then that's all up to them. It's really no one else's business what a person wants to do with their own skin. When people go tanning, the risks of…"

Meghan Byrne commented on Darby Douglas's blog post The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?

Alanna Krivanek commented on Darby Douglas's blog post The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?
"I'll admit that I feel the need to be tan, maybe because when its not summer I'm as white as a piece of paper, but many girls over do it. But i refuse to go fake tanning, even for prom like most girls. Yes i would have rather been tan, but…"

Patrick Witt commented on Darby Douglas's blog post The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?
"I never really understood the purpose of tanning. To me, it seems like you could be doing so much more with your time rather than lying outside in a way that could harm you.  That's just my view of it, but obviously, people enjoy it, so…"

Katie Hughes commented on Darby Douglas's blog post The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?
"I think we have been conditioned to believe that tan skin is sexy and desirable. While Filipino women want light skin because it means they are wealthy, I think american girls want tan skin because in some twisted way it means that they are sexy and…"

Lauren Olson commented on Darby Douglas's blog post The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?
"I think people think that tan skin looks healthy. I do admit I like a glow during the summer. Years down the road, when all these girls who tan, in tanning beds, have ropey, frecklie skin, then they would have wished they stayed inside."

Darby Douglas commented on Kaity Drahos's blog post Foreign Language: High School or Elementary School?
"I think starting foreign language studies before jr. high would be pretty smart. Right now in highschool, we're still kind of developing our second language skills and learning new things. If we started earlier, at this time in high school…"

Favorite thing about American Studies
Last year in english we had to have a two day history class before we'd read an older book just so we get the backgroud. I didn't like that cause when I came into english, I didn't want a history lesson. Here I'll appreciate how there is devoted time to both classes.

The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?

Amongst the many things we will be doing this summer to celebrate the FANTASTIC weather, some of us will be doing something pretty weird. While a good portion of us are cooling off in the pool, some people will just lay there in a thin coat of sun screen, tanning. I admit, getting a nice summery glow is amongst one of the…

Junior Year: Let the Serious Begin

Is it just me, or is junior year kicking your butt? I remember last year, and the year before, I would go to school, go home, do homework and that was about it basically when it came down to school. The only worries I had were my classes, homework, etc. Things that happen currently in school. Now, all my worries have shifted onto things that haven't even happened yet. Things like college. And I may not be taking college visits, or practicing the ACT every single night, but the…

You be a good kid. While they don't have to.

Whatever it is that you want to be when you graduate college, you basically have the same set of rules as everyone else. Be a good kid and earn good grades! You learned in kindergarten to play nice and don't talk, if you don't have anything nice to say. Since you've created  your Facebook account, you've been…

Sugar + Sleep < Tylenol

If you ask me what to do when you have a headache, I’ll tell you to take a Tylenol. Ask my grandmother, who grew up in the Philippines, and she’ll give you sliced fruit and tell you to stop staring at the computer. If you ask me how to boost energy, I’ll give you a “5 Hour Energy.” Ask my grandmother, she’ll tell you to get more sleep. I tell you to take an Advil for sore muscles and she’ll hand you a bag of ice. I know I’m not the only one like this. A lot of my friends are in sports and to… Continue

"There are many options out there, but to standardize is to tell a lot of teachers to learn something new or unfamiliar... it's a tricky subject.  That's why I'd love to start my own school, powered by Edmodo, Ning, etc :)"

9/11 Skylines and Turnstiles

I'm not usually someone who writes a lot , not publicly anyway but I do love to express my self through art, usually visual art but most of the time the art I make is influenced by something . In this case it's a song a written by one of my favorite musicians as a response to the feeling of horror and disbelief as he watched the Twin Towers in New York go from icons to ruins on 9/11/01. The song is sad,…See More
