My Favorite Meal

My favorite meal is simple and tasty. The white colored sauce makes everything come together. In this dish everything compliments the other. First, the tasty main ingredient out of the freezer is thawed out and cut into chunks, then the green vegetable is steamed with goya seasoning added to it. YUM! Boil the water and place the tan colored long string pieces into it. All the while I am pealing back the skin and making sure to clean them just right; cooking them until they are done. When everything is done i mix everything into one pan and enjoy every bit of it. Eating this dish is so good when you compliment it with a tall glass of orange juice NO ICE!

My Wishes

If I could have three wishes they would have to be me becoming a millionaire, that would be my first one. My second would ahve to be that STI's didnt exist. Diseases are just not cool. My third ad final wish would have to be my parents to be okay financially. These would be my wishes because I always wanted to just have money for no reason, i hate diseases they are very nasty, and I love my parents and I hate seeing them struggle.

Take a while to think

Normally when people do things, they dont think before doing them. Sometimes when you dont think about the stuff you do before you do them it can land you a lot of trouble. Even though the trouble may be major or minor you still need to think about the consequences of what you did. Everyone should think before they do something they may in the end regret. Although, for some that may be hard it can be done! When people think before they do something the outcome may be better then it would have been opposed to them not thinking. Just take everyday one by one and like slowly like its your last. If you do that then your life and the situations that you are in should be good!

Fashion I just dont like!

Most of the fashion that  come sout I do like. What I dont like about fashion though is that nobody has their own style it seems like, when you walk around town everybody looks the same. Every Jordan brand shoe that drops everybody feels the need that they have to get it, and shortly after everyone is looking the same! I know for sure that I am not a fan of the pants that a flare at the top that is just not a cute look to me. Here are some other fashion clothing that I am just not into.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a very special time however, it is not my favorite holiday. Thanksgiving is when black people eat a lot and then fall asleep, wake and do it all over again. The food that comes with thanksgiving is good overall though, I just dont like when we have things left over and I have to eat it the next day. My thanksgiving's are different every year, since my parents divorced I alternate the holidays every year between my dad and my mom. I must say going to visit my dads sidde of the family is what I enjoy the most. They are so funny, and they are sofun to be around. When im with my dads side of the family I know for sure that it is going to be all laughs and that I am going to have a good time. When I go to see my moms side of the family they are more serious and they are older I dont really have any cousins my age so I am mainly bored but I do enjoy seeing them all though.

Holiday Meaning

Mainly being with my family and just being able to chill with them at home without having to worry about doing anything else is what matters the most to me. Not having to to go to school is just a plus added to it. When im not at school I just chill at my residence and watch TV with my sister. Thats what I enjoy the most. Family I love them so much!

Social Media

Social media grows everyday. Someone out there everyday is just thinking about something new to bring to the world. Many internet connecti website that helps people meet new people or stay in contact with others. Websites like that went from blackplanet to bebo to myspace to facebook and now to twitter. There have been many other websites that has not got that much good feedback too, like tumblr. Although, may people still get on there. Everyday something new is going to happen because that is what social media brings.

Helpful technology

Although technology has been portrayed in a negative manner it also helps us in a postive manner as well. With the new advanced techonlogy television is able to promote wonderful things. Here are some examples.

Television

• Promotes healthy food choices (Subway)
• Weather forecasts (Prepares us for the day)

News

• Updated news (Keeps us updated with whats going on in our community)
• Sales (Let's us know what sales are going on, so that we will be able to save some money)

Social Media

• Provides us with entertainment

My Fashion View

I like many different things, I would say my style is weird in a cute sassy way. However, if the place that I am going is not important or depending on how I am feeling I dont mind at all being laid back. I love the way I dress, especially out of school where the people actually matter.

 

What are your plan after high school?

After highschool I plan to further my education adn go to college. When I go to college I would like to major in pre-dentistry. I am gloing to be majoring in that because I would like to become a orthodontist in the near furture. After, I graduate from college I will need to go to a dental school to get my doctorates so that I can offically become a orthodontist. When I finally do become what I desire to be I will be able to look back at my life and say that I am happy with how things ended.

Caught Up

In 2009, T.I was charged with gun charges. The media found out quickly what happened to him that day. It didnt help that the day he got arrested was the day the BET Hip Hop awards was being taped. T.I was suppose to be performing. T.I brought 8 illegal guns and brought a few silencers along with them. The media is something that really blowed this situatuion up and all the publicity that T.I gained from this experience may have made it hard on his life.

Chris Brown and Rihanna were a couple back in Febuary of 2009. Nobody knows what really happened in that car that night but whatever it was it ended up bad. Chris Brown ended up hitting Rihanna. After the situation was over, Brown had to serve many hours of community service. Now, it seems that Brown and Rihanna dont care and want to show people that they want to be together. Another situation that happened recently was Brown and rapper Drake got into a club. Many say that Brown through the bottle because of Drake's affliations with ex girlfriend Rihanna.

Back in the day R.Kelly went to trial for allegedly raping a young girl. When the actions went down, they recorded it. Im not sure how the news came out to the public but when it did everybody had their eyes on R.Kelly. The young girl told R.Kelly she was 18 according to him. Many people have moved on from this certain incident, but im sure that R.Kelly will never forget it.

Lindsay Lohan over the years has spent much of her time in local magazines. She has multiple drug charges, which is the reason she has been to jail. Lohan was looked at by many teens as someone they looked up to or someone that they idolized. With all of these events that she is involving her self in the teens dont view her the same.

Chad Ochocinco and Evelyn Lasado recently got married. One night, Lasado found a box of opened condoms in the back Ochocinco's truck. She says that she asked him about them and when things went far she was head butted by him. After this happened she sooned divorced him, he was dropped from his NFL team and their show that was suppose to air on VH1 was canceled. With this action that he choose to pursue cost him a lot of what he spent so long working on.

New arrival soon in the family

Recently I have discovered that my older cousin is pregnant. She found out last week that she will be having a girl. That news was kind of crazy to me because I cant see my cousin with a baby. Not to mention a girl at that. But when she does have the baby I know she is going to be a good mother. She does good with my nephew that is here already, and he is a lot to handle now at three years old. I bet when her baby gets here she is going to spoil her so much, she says she isnt going to know but I know she will. What mother can resist spoiling their child when they first are born? Nobody can. Now im just counting down the time until my new baby cousins arrives, until then I will just continue to rub on my cousins growing belly.

Something that I enjoy watching other then reality TV

I love to sit down relax and watch a reality television show. But sometimes I do turn to the sprots channel and watch competive competitions like cheerleading. It interests me because its cool to see what creatvie routines that the many differnt teams has came up with. When I watch it, it becomes hard for me to discover a winner from all of the teams routines. Many of the cheerleading teams routines are good. If iwas a judge there I would be in a hard position to have to pick a team to be the ultimate winner. Picking a winning team from the competition would be very hard, especially if all  of them are really good.

K-Mart vs Wal-Mart

For years Wal-Mart and K-Mart has been around. However, for the past years it seems as if K-Mart has fallen off and gave it up to Wal-Mart to receive all of the customers to themselves. Some prefer Wal-Mart over K-Mart while others prefer K-Mart over Wal-Mart. K-Mart still does have the potiential to make a comeback and get back to how K-Mart use to be but it seems as if they cant do it. K-Mart basically has everything that Wal-Mart does their prices may differ from one another but its till has nice quality things available for the public.Wal-Mart has many oublications being made for the public to see and many dont see K-Marts that much. That much gives Wal-Mart the advantage. On the othe hand, K-Mart sends out circulars in the Sunday newspaper while Wal-Mart sends them out occasionally. Both stores has it perks but of course one has to land on top of the other.

Presidential Election

On Tuesday November 6, 2012 the United States of America found out who their new presdient would be. For a while I was a little worried about who the new president would be; the race between President Obama and Govenor Romney was a very close one. They were somewhat neck and neck when it came down to who the president was really going to be. I had the privilege of voting early and I definetly took advantage of my opportunity. Many people who could vote, voted. Some of the people who could not vote were probably bummed out I'm sure. However, at the end of the day Obama was re-elected into the office for his second term and now we have to sit back and see how things pan out.

Losing Loved Ones

Everyone loses someone they love in their lives at one point in time. For some their time comes sooner then others and others their time is later on in their life. Regardless nobody wants to have that moment. Someone close to me was murdered on early Sunday morning after being involved in a car wreck. When i was first informed about the lost I took it lightly, now as the days go by it gets harder and harder. Many things that go on in my normal days remind me of him. It often makes me sad, I wish that what happen to him didnt happen at all. Howver, I can not change the events that go on in todays society. Cherish the moments that you share with people because you neverknow when they are going to be gone for good.

Great Show!

Under employed

 

Underemployed started about two Mondays ago on MTV. This show is not your average show which is why I enjoy watching it. It's funny but it also has a giood story behind it. The people that they director has playing characters in it makes the show. I couldnt imagine anyone else to play a role in the show. When the show ends it leaves me wondering what is going to happen next. Sometimes, I try to predict what is going to happen next; sadly I'm always wrong. Check out the show it's very interesting it comes on MTV at 10pm every tuesday night.



Losts in Life

Losing Someone Close To You

 

 

Everyone has their time to go and leave this earth, sometimes their time just seems to soon. Just yesterday I lost someone that I was very close with Reginald Demarcus Wrenn. He was murdered after he was involved with a car accident. When someone dies you never expect it so thats what I feel like makes it harder on you. Of course your life will move on eventually but the muir thought that they are gone is something you dont want to have to think about. Cherish the people who are around you everyday because you never know when they will be gone.
