Well, It's been quite a whie since I last blogged. Whoops. I'm trying out the mobile app today, so we'll see how things go.
Anyways. Here's a rant about American kids.
Recently, I overheard news of a kid I knew needing to take vitamin D supplements. Vitamin D supplements. Do you see what is wrong with that? No? I'll tell you then. Vitamin D comes naturally from the sun. Which means that, obviously, kids don't get out in the sun enough. The hell. Kids nowadays have practically no idea what going outside is. Not a chore, as many think. It's supposed to be an enjoyment. Being forced to take out the trash isn't going outside. Kapeesh?
A funny thing about staying inside--you can get fat. Seriously. When outside, being in hot or cold temperatures actually burns calories; your body is using energy either to shiver or to sweat. If you stay inside all winter, or turn the AC to 69°F (hehe) in the summer, you're not going to burn the same calories you would have. But nobody really cares, right?
That's all for today. A few interesting facts to tide you over. Mainly because I can't think of more things to write. Gotta get those creative juices flowing, you know?
A blog showcasing some of the various thought processes I have, whether they be thoughtful and insightful, or just plain pointless.
