Water For Elephants

            I just got done reading for the day. I'm not now realizing how behind I am, but I still have until Friday to read the necessary amount of pages. Shouldn't be too hard. Anyways, the section that I read about talked about all the different acts that went on during a circus. One of them was basically a stripper, and the entry fee was only 50 cents. The books' time fame was during the Great Depression, but it relates to today in several ways. As I was reading, I was offended as a woman that someone could do that, even if they are getting paid more 50 cents. I rather be homeless than have to do that. Self pride.
