Barbie - a spoken word poem about body image

This is powerful and yet so true. We teach our little girls from a very young age about Beauty. We tell our little girls how beautiful and pretty they are. From the little stories we read our children, like Cinderella, we are teaching them about beauty. It is incorporated from the time they are toddlers and it follows them through life. The media, a lot of girls and guys try to be perfect, and no matter how hard some try, it is never good enough. When is it good enough, when do we ever reach that goal of being perfect? Is it really ever an attainable goal or is it a fallacy. Fashion is always changing and so is our expectations of what we should look like instead of who we really are. When is it ever good enough? Some people never find this place in life and it can end tragically. We need to build on this concept of beauty and not let it be just what we see, but who and what we are on the inside. The outside is just a cover, and you truly do not get to enjoy the real beauty of a person unless you get to know that individual themselves.

Modern Marvel

The Florida Polytechnic University Building, designed by renowned Spanish architect Dr. Santiago Calatrava, is a 160,000-square-foot white domed structure built in Lakeland. The oval building has a distinctive louvered roof system and is surrounded by a ring of curved metal pergolas that shade its outer terrace and walkways. A crisp clean visible building by day and a beautifully illuminated building at night.
This building is light weight made out of concrete, glass and aluminum. The ceilings move with different settings to follow the sun through out the day to control the amount of sunlight that comes in. And at night it is illuminating and just beautiful. The night shot of this university just caught my eye. The clean glass, endless arches and glowing effect are amazing. It took four years to build this university and 60 million dollars. It has been referred to as the new Modern Marvel. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I did.
