FAVORITE CHARACTER

Jake Koranda

Jake is a very complex character when you first meet him you think he is your typical stereo type. Then as you get more into the story you realize how wrong you were.

He’s my favorite character because no matter how many levels fleur makes him jump through he is there for her and non judgmental.

LEAST FAVORITE CHARACTER

Alexi Savagar Alexi is definitely my least favorite character because he uses everyone around him. Mostly Fleur who was his most prized “possession” and has a super messed up relationship with her.

One-third of all girls in grades nine to 12 think they are overweight, and 60 percent are trying to lose weight.

As a result, girls question their own beauty: between 50 and 70 percent of girls of normal weight believe they are overweight.( Age at which at least half of all girls report having been on a diet. Eighty percent of eighth grade girls say they are on diets." girls were particularly likely to be critical of themselves, and one-quarter of older girls reported that they did not like or hated themselves. In contrast, only 14 percent of boys said they felt this way."" More than 90 percent of girls (15 to 17 years) want to change at least one aspect of their physical appearance, with body weight ranking the highest.

* Nearly a quarter would consider undergoing plastic surgery.

* 13 percent acknowledge having an eating disorder."
