It's Wed. :)
SO!! Tonight on TV is one of my favorite shows, America's Next Top Model!! At first everyone thinks I am really stupid for liking it but I beg to differ! ANTM is related to agriculture more than you know! Make-up is made out of animal by-products. What is animal by-products? Well the by-products definition is :
: something produced in a usually industrial or biological process in addition to the principal product
: a secondary and sometimes unexpected or unintended result
The first one is right, its animals that produce principals that are added to products. Think about it...if you drive a car the tires are made out of hooves ( feet of a animal like cattle, sheep, ect.), make-up is made of fat found in animals. Another by-product is plastic made from corn also know as biodegradable...which means that it can decay by the earth. Hmmm...big words!! I love it! Well time to run! Hope you learned something new today! - Lindsey :)

Ag in my day!!
I am less than and hour away from going to Kolhs to buy some new school clothes!! I am very excited because I dont really get to go buy lots of clothes...anyways!! I am SUPER excited!! So as you now clothes are part of ag and make up, all sorts of things!! But my focus is clothes!! Most people think clothes come from sheep (as in wool) but I am going to break it down. The hanger (plastic) could be made from corn as a biodegradable plastic.
So when you go shopping try to break down EVER aspect of what you are going to buy. As a consumer I believe that the general public dosen't know where their products come from or how they are broken down into specific groups. Go to love ag!! :) - Linds

Agriculture = Life
I believe in the future of agriculture faith born not of deed but of words!! That is the very first sentence in the FFA creed. This year I plan to learn the whole creed and then compete against other FFA members to become the best on to say it! I love FFA.
Most people think FFA stands for Future, Farmers of America, WRONG!! It was changed in 1988 to The National FFA Organization to diffuse (thats a vocab word meaning widely spread) the areas of agriculture. FFA teaches kids to become a leader, have responsibility and to be a leader and stand out! I want to be a leader and not a follower and most people would agree with me that that's what they want to be too!
FFA opens many doors, and is the largest club at my High School! I will keep you updated on my process and my clubs process. There are 1,129 colleges, universities, and schools related to ag...and I plan to go to one of them. My plans in life is to become and Agriculture Extension Educator basically what they do is inform the public about agriculture and educate them. I think this is a great job because I am kind of already doing it. I am educating you about the world of Agriculture, and I plan to educate more! :) - Linds <3
