i really liked the waiting room. it kind of makes you really think about all the cometic surgery that women do in today's society. i mean now its so common and not really that big of a deal. honestly i didn't have anything against it before the play. i had my views of it because of what i saw around me and in the media and society. but now after the play i see how weird and stupid it is. when americans look at foot binding we just can't believe that women do that, it sounds so stupid and dumb to us. but when you look at it we are doing the same stupid stuff. we are chopping off our noses, sucking stuff out of our body and putting in water balloons for boobs. the play made you really look at the reality of it all. also having the doctors story in it too helped a lot. the doctor did nothing to be in the hospital he just got cancer and there was no way around it. all the women in the play were in the hospital because of things that they have done to themselves. i really liked this play and it reall got me to look at cosmetic surgery in a different way!

WOMEN

The movie that we watched in class was very realistic. Women do have to face the problems stated in the film everyday. We are always judged on what we look like and have to work harder to over come the hump of being a woman. Yes, there are some situations were being a woman helps like what Corey said about his mom getting her job but the reality is that we live in a male dominated world and women only get in if they work twice as hard. After we watched the movie we looked through the magizines and i saw why women give themselves such a hard time on what they look like. there was a ad about chex mix saying that it doesnt matter your shape be yourself but our chex mix now has 50% less fat. it was kind of ironic. being a female i dont feel different in school, but i do feel different when i have to have someone walk with me to the library at night and always have to watch myself at parties and other things. im not paranoid but it is still in the back of my head of what could happen to me in different types of situations. also at my work i now have to work with a male. i work at a coffee shop and we had some bad situations with some of the regulars so now my friend meghan and i can no longer work without a male. this sticks in now i cant work with meghan anymore and i always have to now go into the back when certain customers come in. women are strong and just as good as men but it would be stupid to say that they are equal in everything and to say that they are just as safe as men in situations.

myers-briggs

for the myers-briggs test my type came out to be esfp. i think that i have most of the characteristics of an extravert. i definitely like to communicate by talking more than writing and i like it much better with I'm doing something to learn not just reading and research, like the book says. when in comes to the S for sensing on how i take in information i think that I'm more in between sensing and intuitive. i am good at memorizing and i do like concrete facts, which are all characteristics of sensing, but i will write a term paper and then finish the required outline and i do most of the time not read a question all the way through before answering, which are characteristics of intuitive. i think when i took this test my senior year in high school i tired between these two. the next part of it is F which stands for feeling, in how i make decisions. i think i fit in this category better then the last two. i hate confrontation and i do have a difficulty in saying no to people because i am a people pleaser. P for perceiveing could decribe me more perfectly. i am the queen of procrastination. i like to do things in my own time and i need to work under pressure for me to get something done, otherwise i will just leave it to do later. for the most part i think that this test decribed me pretty well. i would really like to go see what i got on it when i took it in high school and see if i changed at all.
