Who really wants to look like Barbie anyway??

Being a high school cheerleader, I always heard girls saying that they wanted to be skinnier, that they wanted to have the shape of Barbie, so they would look good in their Homecomign dress. I thought to myself, sure, it wouldn't hurt for me to lose a few pounds, so we all tried stupid little diets. When some of the girls didn't see the results they would have liked to have seen, they turned to some dramatic alternatives. They would eat an apple. Once a day. An apple, and drink water. That's it. On top of this, they would go to the gym, and work out all four hours that it was open. In my mind, I thought this is ridiculous. You don't need to be a size 0 just to look good in a dress. These girls were all beautiful to start with, and soon, they looked sickly. When I was thinking about what to write for a blog, I thought about things I used to hear about.

Growing up, I remember hearing some people talking about what Barbie would look like if she was a real human being. Well, I am going to show you just how disgusting she would look. After viewing this I decided, lets keep her as an 11 inch doll.

BARBIE
