Hot Chips cause Cancer

Stay healthy is very important. If we are not healthy, we can't enjoy our life. Usually I try to avoid unhealthy foos such as a hot chips, take away foods. But those kind of foods are very addictive and kids love fast food too. Oily foods cause so many illness.
Fast food chain restrants are very good at atract little consumers. They made a fancy gift for a children meal and create good images. Nowaday, parents are almost impossible to avoid kids to have an unhealthty foods. There is very atractive advtisement on TV. on the street...everywhere! For parents, buying the first foods are easire than cooking by own. I think it is time to let fast food joints owner to reconsider to change their menu. I know there is some difficulty to change the menu. If they reduce amount of sugar or salt, consumer might don't want to purchese it. Fresh vegetables are more difficult to keep then frozen food.

Sometimes I buy an organic food. It is delicious and healthy. But price is too high. At home, I use biodetargeble detergent. These kind of detergents are usually more expensive than ordinally one. If gorvenment could subsidize these kind of healthy foods, people can afford

Underweight models

I think that is very good idea to set a standard to keep model's BMI level. I heard some model are taking drug to lose weight. Some are suffer from anorexia. Some of people are born to be skinny but some are not. I think it is quite silly to destroy their own health to keep themselve to be skinny. I think helth is most impotant things. Many young girls admire models on the catwork. I 'm afraid they might want follow model's life style and eaven sacrifice their life. In my opinion, models are not nessesary to be underweight. As long as they are healthy, looking good in most kind of clothes.
Desighner also should think about consumer. Consumers are not all one size. If they choose underweight models, consumer might take that is a standard of beauty. I think women in a picture of Renoir is beautiful but I don't think Munch's one is beautiful. Decadence beauty is out of fashion.

about myself

I was born and raised in Japan. Some people say I don't look like Japanese. Maybe that is true. Maybe my grandfather was Korean. My mother told me my real grandfather passed away in Korea. When my father was baby, my grandmother was separated from grandfather. And for some reason, my grandmother made her brother to be a my father's guardian in law. But my grandfather brought my father up by her.
Few years later my grandmother remarried. But my father's step father refused to adopt my father. He was the only one who had a different surname in his family since he was very little. I think he was eager to see his real father.

Go back to myself. After finished college, I worked as a Textile designer. While I was working, I took a holiday to visit my friend who was here for working holiday maker. And I thought this country is beautiful and I love the weather here too. After I went back to Japan, I decided to go to Australia as a working holiday maker. After arrived in Australia I worked as a shop assistant. One day, I met my husband at the community college in Surry hills.
One year later, we move to Hong Kong for my husband's work and we got married in Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, I worked as sales. We both like to living in Hong Kong, but we thought the environment in Australia is better for kids. And we decided to move back to Australia.
And we move again to China when my son was 1year and half years old. And we move to Australia this February.
I think we are going to settle in this country. So, I really want to improve my English.
