Blog #12: Me and my friend were going to special Olympics to volunteer for community service and we wanted to go get breakfast before. He picked me up and we decided to go to McDonalds, right when we got there he said that he forgot his money, so i said i will pay for you as long as you pay me back because we are pretty close friends. My friend was actually really shocked that i payed for him because i really don't do that for people because i don't have a lot of money to spend on things because i don't work. It felt good to pay for him because i know that it made him happy, because he got to eat his breakfast because we had a long 8 hours of community service to do. i feel that i should be doing more of this positive deviance.

Blog #10, Gender can be a very confusing thing. All of the things that we have been talking about in class have been very interesting. When we watched the show of the boy in the dress at the toy store, and seeing people actually getting frustrated because that guy was making fun of his son. I figured that people would just be bystanders and not do anything about the situation. If my son wanted to wear a dress would i let him? To be honest id tell him that he could only wear it around the house, but not outside of the house, because no parent likes to see they're son upset because they are getting picked on at school. It does seem weird for boys to play with girls toys rather then girls playing with guys toys and i don't know why, it just seems that way. Some of the arguments have gotten me pretty mad, when people will judge you when you say i would never let my son wear a dress in public, who would?! maybe a few people.
