loveisreal WHAT IS RACISM? Jan 25, 2008 11:19 AM So, I just came back from the gym and I wanted to talk about my little fierce experience. I had a pilates class at 9am and I was there 4 mins early just so I could get a good spot in the class. The class was full of women in their 20s-40s. Some were tall,short,skinny,thick whatever it didn't matter to me! 30 mins into the whole hour exercise, we took a break to pair up with partners. The instructor counted our whole group and said "THERE IS AN EVEN AMOUNT OF PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM, SO GETTING IN GROUPS OF 2 SHOULD NOT BE HARD! THANK YOU!" I was looking around for someone who didn't have a partner yet but right when I felt that I was the last one left, I seen a woman in her mid 30s look at me, looked around, shook her head and walk out of the room. I was so embarrassed! The whole class seen what happened. I was approached by one of the girls after class and she told me "She never works out with another race asides from her own. She even told her personal trainer to look for a person of her race or she'd have to reschedule til she gets one". It wasn't as shocking as I thought it would've been but the fact that it happened to me was shocking to myself. I didn't know how to react when I noticed her car was parked right behind mine..should i talk to her? should i look at her? i had no idea how to react! The whole ride home, i kept thinking to myself, is it me? do i look unapproachable? I know I shouldn't think negative about myself, but come to think of it..what the hell just happened? **FEEL FREE TO COMMENT, COMMENT OTHERS.. -WRITE YOUR OWN BLOGS/POLLS ETC AND SAVE IT UNDER 'THE CHANGE IN ME'

loveisreal RECYCLE! Jan 21, 2008 10:17 PM I finish 10 bottles of water every day and I collect my cans and bottles to recycle every month! It bugs me to see people throw their plastics/cans away when they should totally recycle! Not for cash purposes, but for the sake of the earth! Let's try to cut back from our old habits and make a difference! We may think that recycling is a little thing, but imagine how much and what you're saving! XOXO jaym
