Every teenaged girl should see that "glamourous" one. Unfortunately, I see lots of those stick people around here...

Great take on Fun Monday!

Molly said...

Very powerful interpretation of today's task.

I like your new masthead, but I liked the other too.

I used your Fun Monday quote from two weeks ago along with a few others in my seventh class. Your Dr Seuss quote was one of the favorites.

Wow, Penny...

Some deep stuff for a "fun monday", but nicely done and very thought provoking (as usual coming from you).

It seems everything out there, good or bad, can turn into an addiction if we let it.

New title pic is nice, but I am not a traveler and can't figure out where it is!

kitten said...

WOW! I agree with Pamela! Gotta have my chocolate! he!he!

Unknown said...

I like how you went with a theme. And, wow!

ellen b. said...

I think you about covered it! Isn't it funny how my addictive behaviour is always more acceptable than the other gals...
Have a great Monday.

Swampwitch said...

WOW! What a powerful post. Thanks for not posting Chocolate.

ChrisB said...

This is a stark reminder of the society we live in~glad I don't smoke (I'm too far in the opposite direction to be anorexic) I should cut down on food, that's my excess!!

Joy T. said...

Very good and a different take on the assignment for sure. Love it!!!

Tiggerlane said...

The last one was my favorite! However, the STD girls kinda got my attention!

Rose said...

That was very strong. Great post.

Sauntering Soul said...

Incredible post!

Jo Beaufoix said...

That was really fantastic. I'm also really glad chocolates weren't there though. :D

Heather said...

Interesting choices! I like how different and thought provoking they are!

Irish Coffeehouse said...

Wow! Very nice job! :)

Interesting...but a bit hard to see the words with my decrepit eyesight!

Sandy said...

Amazing post. Idealism as an addiction...now that's something to roll around in my brain for a while.

Thank you.
