    Fidget spinners were most definitely a fad last year. I was reminded of these when learning about "fads and crazes" in the chapter (Thio, p. 409-410). Everyone had them at my daughter's school and Girl Scout Troupe. I probably have about ten of these lying around my home now. At least my daughter's enjoyed them while they lasted.

This article, I found to be helpful review on my learning of Modernization as a whole (Thio, p. 415). It shows how even traditions that are centuries old have managed to withstand the test of time. I thought the picture of this Miyako (apprentice geisha) was surreal. The past and the present.

I thought this was very interesting when reading about the Equilibrium Theory in the chapter (Thio, p. 419). There are now such things such as 24-hour daycare facilities to accommodate for single mothers and/or parents that work unconventional work schedules/hours. Here is a little girl getting ready for bed at a 24-hour daycare setting.

This video that I found was very interesting to me because I feel that it confirmed Marx's prediction, (Thio, p. 420), on multinational companies and technology. Other companies, such as Costco and Amazon have also grown similarly. Here we see the picture of a Walmart in China, although they can be found worldwide.

This photo really reminded me of when we learned about social statuses being different between traditional and modern societies. According to our text, (Thio, p. 421), traditional societies (like the Amish pictured above), tend to be more integral than modern ones. People in modern societies tend to "achieve" their statuses as opposed to people in traditional societies that essentially inherit their skills as they are taught down each generation. Like farmers, herders, seamstresses, etc.

    This story really caught my attention, I am a former smoker myself. It is such a great thing to know that smoking has declined since I last quit. It seems like smoking has gone down a lot in recent years, let alone since the 70's-80'S like we learned in our text (Thio, p. 421-423).

This image really stood out to me when searching for something inspirational for the future. In our text, (Thio, p. 425), we learned how we should try to keep goodwill with the world. I feel that this is especially important now more than ever before. I'm still a dreamer for world peace someday.
