200th post!!!! :D

So, in lieu of my 200th post, I have a confession/speech/special thanks.

Three weeks ago, I only had nine followers, and those were either friends from school or people who only followed me because I followed them first. Today, I have 37 followers. Every time I see that number go up, I get this feeling in my heart, a sort pleasant throbbing. It makes me feel like people actually appreciate what I do, the message that I try to convey, and me personally.

Thank you guy so much. I know I'm only getting started, but I also know that I'm on my way to great things. I have my followers to thank for that.

I love you all!!

Yahoo!-Tumblr Aquisition - I want your opinions!

My English II instructor has assigned my final essay as a political report. Instead of reporting over upcoming policy changes between Mexico and the United States as I had originally intended, I am now writing about the Yahoo!-Tumblr aquisition. Part of the assignment is to include individual testimonies on the issue, so I need your help! Please message me with your comments, opinions, concerns, and/or rants about Yahoo! buying Tumblr. Please do not just spew random rumors you've heard; I want your sincere concerns. If you have positive things to say as well, by all means, please include them! Thank you so much in advance!

Skeptical about BMI...

I don't really trust or even care about my BMI because I know that it's not an accurate measure of your health. I also have larger bones and a larger frame than the average person, so I know that my BMI doesn't really count for much. But today I was listening to some YouTuber rant about BMI and stuff, so I decided to see what mine is.

MY BMI: 25.8

Normal weight BMI: 25.0

So I must not be too far off. I mean, I'm not obese, or even fat; I just have a bit of meat on various parts of my body. But I don't think you should have to be classified as 'morbidly obese' before you decide to start getting fit. I just want to do what's best for me. :)

My body is a rebel....

My doctor: You're at risk of heart disease, you're being overweight is harming your health, you have a very dangerous neuro-ocular condition, and your blood pressure is abnormally low.

Dietitians: Avocados can boost weight loss, help protect your body from heart disease, cancer, and degenerative eye and brain diseases.

Me: I'm allergic to avocados.

Nutritionists: Chocolate can help elevate mood, improve blood flow, stabilize blood pressure, and prevent cell damage, degenerative diseases, and even cancer.

Me: I'm diabetic.
