Earthlings Review

I recently watched this documentary which was a very moving story(I’m not even sure if you would call it a story). The documentary tells you about the relationships between humans and animals in categories such as Pets, Food, Clothing, Entertainment and Science.

With hidden cameras they go behind the scenes of what humanity has done to animals. To how we have domesticated animals and now have shelters over run with animals because of irresponsible owners who won’t spay or neuter their pets.

As a pet owner myself and someone who used to spend a lot of time at an animal shelter. I’ve seen the sadness behind an over populated place fill with unwanted animals and what the faith is for many. Although the word has been spread numerous times to please spay and neuter your pets, somehow some people won’t listen for whatever reason and the cycle of unwanted pets continues.

A lot of animal shelters and no kill shelters are looking for a day when there will be no more homeless pets and I stand behind them and hope that some day the over population of animals will stop, but for now advocates continue to fight.

The food industry is one that I tend to stay way from videos and stories, like many people I do eat meat and I am one who puts the slaughter behind me and does not like to think about what happened to the pig or cow that ended up on my plate. However I have seen footage of animal abuse in slaughter houses but none that has moved me as what I witness in this movie. It is amazing to see how people treat these helpless animals and how cruel one can be. The whole time while watching the section on food industry I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of person can do this and no feel any remorse or anything. It was simply shocking.

If there is any industry I can’t stand its the fur industry. I don’t understand why anyone wants to go out and buy a leather jacket or a mink coat or anything with fur or skin for that matter. But to watch how the animals are tortured for everyday wear is unbelievable!

It hurts to see animals at the circus. Although I have never been to an animal circus and trust me I don’t plan on. I’ve seen plenty of videos and just things that don’t make since to me.Why on earth do you need to have elephants dancing around and tigers sitting on chairs and animal doing things that aren’t in their nature. Am I the only one that sees something wrong with this?. Wildlife animals belong in the wild and not dancing around for our entertainment.

I do not mind going to zoos I enjoy seeing the different animals and creatures but after I watched this documentary it made me kinda rethink. Are these animals happy? Should they even be here? Really it is just for our amusement right? I don’t think I will go to another zoo again without wondering if this is really okay?

I think hunting is just ridiculous, its bad enough we have slaughter houses torturing the animals we eat everyday. Do you really need to go out there and kill the innocent deers , rabbits, and squirrels…oh and lets not forget about the tigers and animals that are almost extinct thanks to hunters.

Overall this documentary is amazing and an eye opener to people who don’t really know what is going on in society and how animals are being treated. Really it is humans who have ruined the world for animals and humans are killing off many of our amazing creatures. There is what like only 5000 or some (and I could be wrong on the number) of tigers left in the world.

What about the polar bears? Thanks to us creating global warming and fishing, now the ice is melting and there’s no fish for them to eat. As humans we are killing the environment that once belongs to the animals.

It’s sad to see how animals are being treated and how much hurt we have cost them. Is it greed? or is it that humans have lost compassion?

I tried not to spoil the movie for anyone but I do recommend that you watch this film and see for yourself and I understand if it maybe hard for some to watched. I cried a lot watching this film, but it really makes you think.

What Makes A Women Sexy

What is sexy? If you google a definition of sexy you get this as a definition:

sex·y

adjective /ˈseksē/
sexier, comparative; sexiest, superlative

• Sexually attractive or exciting
  • – sexy French underwear
• Sexually aroused
  • – neither of them was feeling sexy
• Exciting; appealing
  • – I’ve climbed most of the really sexy west coast mountains

I had recently asked a guy while walking down the street how would he define sexy. In his opinion sexy wasn’t just the gorgeous skinny blonde with the big boobs walking down the street. Sexy was built more on the way a women handled herself,the career women, who could take care of herself and didn’t need anyone else; was the sexy women

As women we often find ourselves struggling with looks to be ideal for everyone. We want to be perfect and be up to date with fashion and anything that makes us look appealing to someone.

Some men will say sexy is all about looks and how a girl shows off her features. We all know men don’t just go to those bars with all the women working in short shorts and tight shirt just because they have good drinks. They go not only for the drinks but because of those “sexy” girls that work there. Which is great for business. But what about the girlfriends/wives of these men who are a little insecure about their own looks and have to watch their men trying not to stare at these girls prancing around.

Insecurity may not be sexy, but what really makes a girl sexy?

• Maybe it is the independent women who doesn’t need a man or anyone around to complete herself.
• Maybe it is the tall girl with the pretty face and nice features.
• Maybe it is the average girl who is just being herself.

Nobody is perfect that’s for sure and maybe sexy just isn’t all that perfect either.

I would be really interest in knowing what my readers define as sexy, please leave a comment and let me know your opinion. Thanks!

Hunting for the Perfect Job

Is there really anything out as the perfect job? What defines the perfect job anyways? Is it something you really like doing, Is it the way you interact with your co-workers or clients, or is it just that you love getting up in the morning and going to that job?, I’m not quiet sure. As a recent graduate, I am currently searching for that perfect job, however my perfect job would be working at a veterinary clinic. Why? Well seeing how I just spent the last three years of my life in school studying in the veterinary field, I would imagine being a veterinary technician would be my perfect job. I love animals and enjoy teaching clients about animal health and care. I just really enjoy all the work involved in taking care of sick animals or helping monitor patients during routine surgical procedures. But of course while applying for these position I also need to take care of myself and of course my dog, in doing so I need a job regardless if clinics in the area are hiring or not. So while I run around applying to clinics and praying one will hire me(or call for an interview at least) I need to find a job to support myself.
As I do so in this search I have come across areas I enjoy such as, well animals. I have applied at pets stores in the area, had an interview but no luck :(. I want a job where I can be happy at it and comfortable, because lets face it, if its not at a vet clinic I’m just not going to be happy. Should I be a waitress? tips would be great but do I really want to deal with rude people and serve them food all day. Should I work in a fast food joint? Hell no! And not because I don’t think it’s a good job or anything, but I just don’t want to get fat and I enjoy food I must admit! But I have this fear if I go to work at a fast food place I will end up bring home food every night, eating it on my lunch breaks and then leading to me gaining weight. Or what about being a store cashier?..standing there all day ringing in peoples items repeating the same phrases, you know the ones “found everything your looking for today”. I must say I hate that phrase! Clearly if I am at the check out then yes I have found everything I’m looking for..If I didn’t then I wouldn’t be there, would I?
Now I’m not trying to put down anyone who works any type of the fields I have ranted about or any other field that doesn’t involve animals. If you are happy where you are then great! I wish you all the best. It’s just not something I want to do, nor is it for everybody.
I’m just starting to wonder, how many people out there are doing the job they do everyday because they love it? or because they have to do it, not that they want to but they have to, in order to support themselves and their families. Am I being selfish for wanting to do what I love to do, and hate to settle for less, even though I will need to pay next month rent and I need a job! Sure my boyfriend will help out and pay the rent until I get a job, but I enjoy being able to help and be independent and he enjoys that quality in me.

Welcome Bridget To WordPress.com

Yes, welcome me to this new blog site…which I am still trying to figure out!..I must say I do like it..I like the way you can personalize it and make it look good. HOWEVER I’m not a big fan of not being able to create my own theme and start off the way I want it..instead of choosing a theme that I can’t change something to. I went through all the free themes and really I only like this one..however I don’t like the big pink menu buttons…I like them but I want them smaller..I find they take up to much room..just want to shrink them just a little bit!!…Anyway I hope to have everything ready for this blog by next week…because it’s going to take me that long to figure out this site.
