Shop Till You Drop

How did it feel to have more or less money than other people in the class?
I felt neutral nothing really much cause I am in the middle class which meaning that I don't really have a choice and I don't really have any thing to really compare with. Doesn't really matter to me, cause I am just like most of the people in the world been in the middle class.

How did it feel to see what you could and could not afford at the Global Mall?
As we can see, I am the middle class people which meaning that our money and shopping ideas are most important. Cause we are not poor and we are not that rich so we are just supporting for both of them, we are like the bones for the flash and tendons.

How many of you could not afford education? What would your lives be like if you could not go to school?
I think the life without knowledge is like bubble tea without tea inside. Doesn't make sense. And taste bad.


How would it feel to have to choose between food and health care?
I would choose food, cause you know. To feed a girl like me is really hard, we like to eat lots of things, but because the stereotype so we can't eat that much otherwise we will be real fat, and people won't like us. But I still think food is more important, cause if you eat good food, you will be healthy, u become healthy u don't need health care anymore cause u won't get sick.

How many of you have ever been very sick or gone to a hospital or had friends and family who have? What would your life be like now if you had been unable to get medical care?
It will makes other people feel sad and everyone in this family will be totally down and emotional. It makes the family relationship worse. And because of that, the money they are going to pay will make the family worse and worse. And that will makes the whole family money tight, and enable to do things they actually want to do.


What were the impacts caused by people with fewer Global Mall Dollars, and what were the impacts caused by people with more Global Mall Dollars?
The distance between the billionaire and the non money people will getting longer and longer and breaking a part. And those no money people they won't have education so they will make babies a lot and all like stupid people. But their children won't go to school either so they will be even more stupid and the whole generation is going to be stupid and poor.

Democracy now

1. Synopsis: what is this interview about?

This interview is about how women and girls affect around the world because they think that they have to please to someone. To be more specific, is that its talking about different ways of girls rights, and how can we improve on it.

2. How is Eve Ensler being a global citizen? What is she doing to make a difference in the world (give examples)?
The story of this, she was a poor girl who got family violence when she was small, and after she grown up, she start to get someone to gather up and face thins problem, and this spirit is what we actually need, is the power of love.

3. Give one example of how girls can end up in harmful situations because of societal pressures "to please" others.
Some girls are in bad relationship. They have to do that others want them to do or telling girls not tell to anyone so some girls will get hurt.

2. What do you think are the connections between The Story of Stuff and Eve Ensler's story about the girl in the factory making Barbie doll heads?
The connection about this post and the STORY OF STUFF, is that we know about that 99% of our stuff is trash, so the time the girl in china sitting there and making the doll in this third world, during that time. And she sit there for tons of hours was for making the Barbie was a totally waste and is just for the other girl in the first world having fun with it.
