Perspective on GOTYS...

I just watched a video by "butterflyartstudios" on YouTube (obviously) & she made an entire video stating on how AG hasn't had a black or Hispanic or darker skin colored GOTY. She asks why AG can't have another skin toned doll besides white for one year. She also states how lately AG is kind of turning into a Barbie doll company. (Not like the skinny waists or anything like that xD) but how Barbie dolls are like, white with blue eyes & blonde hair. AG has been making a lot of dolls with blue eyes & white skin...I mean just for one year, have a different colored doll besides white. Now don't get me wrong she explains she still LOVES AG but just for one year change. It's kinda funny how Kanani, Marisol & Sonali are the ONLY GOTYS with different skin tones? & also Sonali is the ONLY GOTY with the darkest skin? I wonder why AG makes GOTYS & JLY that are more light skinned. Now my personal opinion, I love each & every one of AG's dolls. They are all so unique. So what do you think?

Once said, always lived

Hello my lovelies! This is my first time posting on this blog :D So on vacation we were walking the streets & my dad starting talking to me. He said that in life the sooner you learn there is someone smarter, stronger, faster, than you, the better you'll be. He said to accept that. For a while I was thinking that I was all of those things but turns out, I'm surely not. I've been learning it over the past 3 weeks. For a short span of time I was jealous of a lot of things. I have no idea why but I was. Then after he told me that, I was just, better. Like it's hard to explain but I wasn't jealous anymore. Example: Our school runs the mile. I was usually the first girl in the gym last year. This year there are a ton of girls ahead of me. I use to think, "Oh it was just their good day". The fact was, they were just better than me. So basically here I am. Accepting who I am. I mean just being thankful that I have eyes, legs, mouth, teeth, I can go to school, have a phone, have hands. Just all of those things we take for granted. I am incredibly thankful for everything.
