Why I'm Not Going to Blaire's Pre-Release

-
      Firstly, sorry for not posting very much this month. Also, thank you all so much for visiting this blog so much this month! I truly was not expecting it. Anyways here is why I chose not to go to Blaire's little pre-release thing tomorrow.

        I wasn't able to find information about the event on American Girl's site, so here's what I remember about the pre-release.


  1. You get Blaire.
  2. It's really expensive.
Now, based off of this information, here are the reasons I chose not to go.
  1.  What if Blaire is bad quality? And even if not all of her is bad quality, what if they just hand you the doll and that's the one you get?
  2. It's expensive.
  3. It sounds more fun to just get her January 1st. I don't know with this one really, I just like seeing other people who are excited to get Blaire. Sure, probably everyone else in the American Girl "community", for say, will get Blaire tomorrow but that doesn't mean I have to. 
Those are the reasons I'm not getting Blaire tomorrow. Are you getting Blaire tomorrow? Also, I'm just going to delete the Blaire site, I never used it anyways.

    I care about quality. I care about diversity. I was wondering if you saw how much hate there was about Blaire being white. It’s astounding and awful. Why do people have to act this way? Racism works either way. Everyone is beautiful, so why don’t everyone treat each other despite skin color.

      I agree with you regarding quality and diversity. I have also seen all of the hate due to Blaire's race, which upsets me as well. I understand why people are upset though, the majority of the world is made up of people of color, so they want that shown. Plus, American Girl seemed to be slowly getting better at making DOCs. Although I do wish she was a DOC, I can tell that she will have an incredible story and I am very excited for her release. :)

      I’m not saying I don’t like doc’s, there beautiful. I agree with you that AG is doing a great job in including diversity. But that shouldn’t be just contributed to DOCs. I would like to see dolls with disabilities, dwarfism, facing adversity. Or a doll
      (Character) with Alopecia. Still really want to see a character with that. Anyway thanks for listening to my tea Xd

      Entirely agree! I really do feel like people a bit too wrapped up in the DOCs. Not saying DOCs are bad or anything, just other things can get attention too.

Rainy Day (Blaire Short Story #1)

-
    First off, these aren't in any particular order, just little short stories about Blaire and what I think could happen in one of her stories. Also, sorry I'm writing this so late, I was going to write this yesterday, but I forgot to. In other words, I'm writing this at school. I hope you enjoy the story! (It's in Blarie's point of view.)      I stepped outside, that's when I remembered; it was raining. So then I turned around and went back inside. I wasn't wet thanks to the awning over our front porch. I went to the coat closet in my family's entry way and pulled out my lavender rain jacket and my floral umbrella. I threw on my rain jacket and opened the umbrella once I got onto the front porch. I then headed out in the pouring rain to the barn. My morning chore was to feed the animals and look for chicken eggs, which only took about forty-five minutes. Yet, I was often in the barn for much longer, just talking to the animals about my day; like they...

Regarding the Quality Change Rumors

-
    Yes, I know I left the Blaire short stories on a bit of cliffhanger, but I can't think of what to write next for the story. Plus, I feel like I'd probably end up making it a mystery because I'm writing a mystery story right now. I'm on my 11th chapter. Now, here's the actual post.      I wanted to address this because I've heard a lot about it and there are some things we need to remember. First thing that we need to remember, is that this is a rumor. We don't actually know if American Girl's quality will be all back to normal on January 1st. After all, that would take a lot of work to fix. This rumor was first addressed in late November, I believe and if it's true it would still take so much time to make all of those dolls. Remember, they need ones for shipping, and all of the AG stores. Even if they had figured this out earlier, it still just seems unlikely for it to be true. Secondly, even if it is true, American Girl hasn't addressed th...
