Food Cultures At Home
Americans today most say they have no time to eat at home but spend a lot of time looking around to find a crowded restaurant to eat dinner at. "no" time so we also visit these fast food restaurants and take up so much space by ourselves. We mostly eat alone while sitting in a restaurant or order take out and sit in front of the television stuffing our faces. In the movies or television shows most Americans in the city eating take out or sitting there with TV dinners watching the tube, and occasionally eating as a family. Many people today would eat lots of meat like burgers and hot dogs, the couple student i interviewed favorite foods were fast food you can buy at a stand or a fast food chain. Main stream corporate culture supports this type of culture because they are getting a lot of money and don't really care about the public health.
In my family we eat a verity of food for breakfast lunch and dinner. there are all these different types of flavors in our Chinese culture. mostly my grad parents and father cooks dinner and we kids help out as a family. at dinner we go against the main way to eat in America, since we eat healthy with a balance of meat, fish, grain, and vegetables. we eat as a family sharing what happened during our day and other small talk. after dinner we have homemade soup and fruits. we useally take about 1 hour to eat dinner to bond more as a family. the foods we normally cook is not like the typical main American culture but when out side i fall closer to the main culture. since it is hard to bring home food outside with no way to heat it up i am stuck with eating greasy foods like pizza and burgers for lunch on weekdays. even though i try to balance the fat with vegetables and fruits but i am still eating these bad foods. whenever it is not dinner time we usally cook our own foods at home but it is still the same verity like our dinner. i guess you could say we rarly eat fried foods as a family, only when ever we go out to the beach and eat barbecues. my family in general lens to the non main stream but with school lunch i lean more to the main stream than them.

Health Question
Two Part Question:
a> Why do people grow their own foods?
b> Why do people plant foods from foreign nations and not food from the natural land?
People say that if they grow food themselves and not have it shipped from across seas that it is more energy conserving and more natural. NY times is a organization trying to make awareness of growing your own food with shortage of resources, but that food which is grown could be from other nations and not foods grown from this land. it like how we domesticate animals and move them across seas and changing the ecosystem of that land, as shown in asci.

Health Project
Through out this health project it allowed me think about what health really was. to my conclusion i saw health as only two different categories, physical and mental. the five different healths was all a myth in my eyes and if you believed int hem it was all in your head. All these constant emotions the makes humans very simple minded to others, we show compassion to other things more than we show to each others and some people might think that is unhealthy to your mind but i think if you think its right than it is healthy. No one else can make any judgements to what you consider healthy or unhealthy.
As one base their health on different things like moral and spiritual it is all the make others think about how different they are from each others. who can follow the rules set by society to be healthy. each person can think they are healthy in their own mind and no one can tell them that they are not, it's just another brain washing by the culture and all who follow it. as we talk in class and all these different points came up about should you save the child or the car, each person had the same reasoning to save one but it was only simple minded thinking and no further thinking about what can happen after. either save the car since its like your life of sweat and blood, or save the child which is like your own. no one ever thought about selling the car to save more children's lives instead of that one life. this is also showing how we think 4 years to a child's life is only worth 200 dollars and that very simple minded to. people say a life is priceless, but then why do we sell others if its so priceless.
When we talked about moral health i though everyone is right and all the things we think is wrong was affected by the culture which made us think its wrong. which ever path a person chooses its the right path and they think its right even though a person might say other wise.
Emotions also play a big part in our health, even though you have different emotions they can all be called the same or different things. many emotions cover up each other so there can never be one name since a person is feeling more than one emotion at once. to feel all emotions is good but to force it out to feel that way if bad, it should just be natural, unlike alot of stuff made in this world. like products are artificial but it is better natural. No two emotion is alike, like every human there is always something different.
Physical and mental health is all that matters in my option since all the other healths revolve around it and its two basic concepts. both need balance to be overall healthy, if one is "unhealthy" than it will affect a persons overall health.

Spring Break Emotion HW
Through out the whole vacation i felt emotional healthy since it is all in our minds and there is no one moment i felt less emotionally healthy. The only one that can "think" they are emotionally healthy or not is themselves and not anyone else, many people get their emotions mixed up because emotions overlap each other and no one can feel the true emotion with out any side effects from the others. A person can classify a emotion because of memory, but they can never feel the same emotion twice, it is always different depending on the different situations. We use the different emotion names to place these emotions in this category but since we are all simple minded animals we can never "feel" two emotions at the same time, only the stronger one will be noticed by our current state. We also classify the intensity if the emotion with different words even though they all mean the same thing. There is no emotional health because it is all a myth in my eyes and i think we are always emotionally healthy since everyone needs to experience all different kinds of emotions and intensity's in order to grow.
The therapy's we researched only contradicts what I think is emotional health, the therapy's want to find the source of the problems or give a "fake" answer to cover over the real problem. Since emotions can never be remembered exactly twice after that moments, and only what you think you are feeling can be remembered. By not seeing the real emotion at that time allows therapist to exploit other people to make them belive this is the problem and they can help you find the solution.

Psychotherapy Homework
Existential Psychotherapy:
By looking at existential therapy i think about how these people go about trying to help others, even though this is the best solution each therapist has a different theory to how he/she is going to solve a problem. Different people has different needs but there shouldn't be a very wide verity of choices, it is just like covering the real problem with a mask. This just alludes the person and then noting will get done, i am not saying that it is always wrong to do this but that it just needs some work.
