WHAT HAS ADVERTISING COME TO??? CREEPIN???

SO TO WHAT EXTENT IS IT TOO MUCH??? Advertisements these days are getting a bit out of hand. Companies today like Mcdonald's and At&t seem to lean to the humor and popular genres in order to relate to consumers.Some companies even have commercials that have no relevance to the product. Today advertisments are very expensive and created in order to promote and sell the product. But in some cases like for instance this commercial:






You dont really know whats the point?? Lately you can watch an hr episode of your favorite show and see 5 commercials that makes no sense. Do these companies really think of these stategies?? Or do they expect us to remember half these commercials that we have no clue about?? Then there are those weird commercials that you get confused on laughing or being sad like this one:



As you see all this commercials just think of millions of dollars used on these commercials.



A little too much huh?? Hahah well at least we get a good laugh about it. Hey its there loss if the commericals dumb but its our gain cause its just to funny to pass up.

WATCH OUT FOR THE BIG GIRLS....


WATCH OUT NOW!!! Big girls are ahead in the race! You always hear that men prefer the slim women with figures. But who said big women aren't as sexy?? I myself even believe that men prefer something to hug and hold not skin and bones. Its the 21st century and its a whole different ball game!! I mean obese isnt the new style but a women with a litte meat can strut her stuff just as well. Men love breast and well its more common for a female thats a little thicker to be more heavy on the top and bottom. It's common for men to drool over famous celebrities who are petite or slim but Queen Latifah and Tacara are very well liked. It's only a matter of time before big girls just take it all. But every guy has his own taste and opposites sure do attract. Famous saying from god knows where "more cushion for the pushing". I myself am a big woman and very proud and if you ask me everyone has a match out there.

MOTHERS KNOW BEST


It's as if Mother's have magical or phsycic powers. They tell you to do one thing and next thing you know it happens. "Dont go out without your hat your going to get a cold." or "Don't put it like that its going to fall." I at least had my share of incidents. I was 5 yrs old and m my parents had company over. I walked into the living room and sat on the couch. As a normal 5 yr old you start getting bored. As the smart child that I am I decided to sit on the couch arm and start pretending it was a swing. Rocking back and forth my mom told me to stop. Enjoying myself so much I kept at it until I lost my balance and slammed my head on the radiator behind me. Not only did I hit my head but I had cracked it open in the back. My parents rushed me to the bathroom to put pressure on it and to stop the bleeding. The funny part about it (well at least now) while everything was happening my mother was still preaching to me on how I should of listened to her. They ended up bringing me to the hospital where they stitched me up wide awake. Boy was I screaming, my father holding me down and the doctor sewing I actually peed on myself. Haha so embarassing yet such a kid. Throughout my childhood I had a trillion accidents and stories. Half of them I didnt listen to my mom. But as the years went by I started to realize my mother was usually right. It was scary! Dont always be so quick to go against what your mom says. MOTHERS DO KNOW BEST.

UNBEARABLE PAIN.....THE UNLUCKY ONES


I can remember it all as if it was yesterday. December 4th, 2007, I had a scheduled sonagram entering my third trimester; 6 1/2 months and I was finding out the sex of my unborn child. I sat there impatiently waiting with my boyfriend. The floor beige with specks of dirt and room was getting crowded to where I could here the next person breathe. "Cristina Sencion", my name was called and I got up my boyfriend stayed behind as standard procedure. I walked into the same room I always end up in. Got ready and layed back excitingly waiting to hear the sex. "How far along are you again?" He asked, "about 6 1/2 months I answered laying still. He then kept silent, I continued to ask if the baby was in the same position as last time and he told me yes. He got up and said he would be right back, left the room and I layed there. My first instinct was why wasnt he saying much, but I just kept assuming it was still difficult to identify the sex. Five minutes later he enters the room with the doctor. I didnt know what to think so I sat up to hear what was going on. "I'm afraid your babies heart stopped beating." Those words most of tore my heart a million times over and over because it couldnt seem possible. IT WASNT REAL, IT COULDNT BE....I MUST BE DREAMING. Not realizing the amount of tears that had already fell I couldnt even whisper a word. I sat there crying for what seemed years. When my boyfriend walked in I felt as if I had failed him, his first child. Was it me? Could have I done anything different? I couldnt even lift my head to say a word. After he questioned the doctor a million times we went to my doctors office where yet again I saw a thousand pregnant happy woman, I felt like I was in a twilight zone and couldnt get out of it. We scheduled an appointment with a specialist. The next day we went to the doctor and I got admitted into flushing hospital. Thirteern hours of labor and the day after December 6th, 2007 at 7:51 A.M. I gave birth to my beautiful baby boy Makia Elias Mclaurin 1lb 2 1/2 oz. It was the most painful experience physically and emotionally. I never cried so much in my life and all I know is I must of asked god a trillion times why did he take my baby away from me. A whole 6 and a half months I spent with him and so fast he was taken away. I got to see him and hold him, my family got to see him. He was fully developed and already were picking up his fathers features.
We gave Makai a proper burial clothed and with a toy from us. My family and friends showed support and loved and cried with me . It took me months to actually deal with it. I have his footprints and handprints his clothing that we had previously bought and pictures put away for memories. It was alot to take in.
Everyone I knew was having a babies left AND right! People sit here and think that getting pregnant is the worse. That its impossible but NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE. The people that really want children cant have them and the people who can take advantage of it all and just get rid of it with no hesitation. SOME ARE LUCKY AND OTHERS ARENT the only thing I can say is unfotunately I wasnt lucky enough nor was I blessed long enough. I was hurt and never healed. But what I do hope is people take the time to think what they are doing. As soon as a child is made it is a life no matter the size. Loosing a child is tremendously a hard thing to deal with and I do hope in the future I will be blessed with another. I still go to visit my son as his burial site and go and talk to him. He'll be one in December time flys by fast.

WHAT KEPT ME TOGETHER:

=The Cord=

We are connected, My child and I, by An invisible cord Not seen by the eye. It's not like the cord That connects us 'til birth This cord can't been seen By any on Earth. This cord does it's work Right from the start. It binds us together Attached to my heart. I know that it's there Though no one can see The invisible cord From my child to me. The strength of this cord Is hard to describe. It can't be destroyed It can't be denied. It's stronger than any cord Man could create It withstands the test Can hold any weight. And though you are gone, Though you're not here with me, The cord is still there But no one can see. It pulls at my heart I am bruised...I am sore, But this cord is my lifeline As never before. I am thankful that God Connects us this way A mother and child, Death can't take it away!
