Open Blog - Thursday

Le Petit Prince. (The Little Prince)  Antoine de Saint-ExupĂ©ry
Best book I ever read. It was assigned as reading in French. Although simple in words, and few in pages, I had to buy the English translation to understand the depth. I think I get more out of it every time I read it.

Open Blog - Wednesday

Time for coffee....

Remember Joan Rivers and her famous quote, "Can we talk?" She sure could be crass, but yet, scandalously funny. She was a pioneer back in the day, changing the perception of what women could say and do.

Miss Representation


This is the female version of the documentary that sparked the video I posted earlier. This isn't the same video that I saw earlier, but I think it is the same documentary.

The trailer I saw focused more on how women are taught to behave, taught to communicate. It spoke about women's actions in the workforce, how women are generally underpaid because they accept less and are afraid or reluctant to ask for raises. It mentioned that women will often sit back in a meeting and offer subtle questions and actions, whereas men will state a course of action without worrying about being diminished.

The Mask You Live In - Trailer


This is the video that I mentioned in today's open blog. I thought it was very interesting. We do a different, yet equally destructive mask shaping with girls.
