(CE) Thanks to that

OAKLAND -- An overload of electricity used for a legal marijuana grow sparked a fire at a house in the Montclair hills Tuesday night that forced two young children and their great aunt to flee, officials said.The blaze, which presented access problems to firefighters, caused at least $100,000 damage to the split level, hillside house in the 6500 block of Girvin Drive and left it uninhabitable, officials said.

Crazy the whole Marijuana thing is getting to become really crazy and it seems like it is happening everywhere and it also seems like it is never ending. Marijuana is bad and look what it did it destroyed and caused alot of damage. This is so bad because there was also childrens and who would want to bring that around children and making them suffer for the damages of their dumb overload of electricity for their Marijuana plants.

 I hear about the whole drug cartels and everything and the huge rise of the Marijuana industry and how many of people use it. I think that Marijuana is not going away anytimes soon and that its making a huge impact on alot of things. It should not be legailized it should be illegal. They should of not even have the consideration of having that legal althought in some cases people use it health wise i think that is bad and doctors shouldnt give that to their pacients. Cannabis should be closed because they are just promoting. Also whats up with that place Oaksterdam University, that is insane. Totally againt Marijuana should be gone its getting to pricy

(RE) You Are Totally Right ;)

"Why do we have to do response posts? They are pointless. I can't even find a post that i would respond to. They all are really boring and don't really connect to me. It would be easier if he just gave us topics to do. I can write about something if I have a topic."-Trevor Bergman

  I agree Treviee i hate these Post they are like the worst ones i hate them. I can go for hours trying to figure out looking for one that i would even want to respond to. It is so whack i can never find one that i am interested on responding to and i hate it. Then i have to really start talking out my butt and sometimes like making up things and figure out what to say and i get so annoyed.

  I think it would be easier for everyone if the teacher really did just give us a topic to wite about. But then sometimes the topics can be kind of ugh. Like for the Biweeklys and the ones the teacher gives us a topic to write about they are sometimes a bit fustrating and i cant figure out what to say or if i an even correct of something. So i am kind of debating on both. I mean free writes are the best because they are so free and awesome. You can wite about anything and everything and sometimes they can be really interesting but then that is kind of a personal opinion. So i am more to free writes than anything. And also the current events because you could just read or see a news thing and just write about it. There is also alot of interesting things going on in the world so those arent even hard. But then i very much enjoy writing so i mean what the heck i really dont have anything better to do. JUST KEEP WRITING

Tigers :) (CE)

"There's no way we could take just one," said Erica Calcagno, an Oakland zookeeper who made the trek to Brownsville, Texas, where the tigers - all sisters - had been rescued from a roadside freak show. 




 So the plan at first was to get one tiger but they ended up with more than that the zoo in Texas  was giving away four tigers that they had rescued. How cute is that.The tiger were sister too. The Oakland zookeeper could not resist and they took all of them. Tigers are adorable who would not fall in love with them. They look so cute when they are small and they know how to put on a show when they are big too.

  I love going to the zoo it is so amazing but one of my favorites have to be the tigers and the dolphins. It is so amazing how intelligent they are and how they follow directions. i cant wait to visit the Oakland zoo and see its new big cats. I think it is a great thing that the zookeepers rescue the tigers and they give them a safe comfortable place to be in. One thing i do not understand is why would the zoo of Brownsville Texas want to give such lovely animal away. They could use the tigers for very good entertainment.

  But that is not the case i am glad that the zookeepers of Oakland stepped in and brought  the cute Tigers to Oakland. Either way the Oakland zoo tigers did need company and their tigers are getting really new. I think the new tigers are a great new edition to the Oakland Zoo and the are going to  be a big hit there. Welcome the tigers to Oakland! :)

(FREE) you understand

I just dont get it sometimes, i sometimes really hate human beings. Sometimes well not sometimes like MOST of the time i want to be alone. I use to want people around me and i use to think that i needed someone like at all times but no i absolutly dont. People can honestly really piss me off. They sometimes can understand me and then sometimes they can be totally against me. Or other times they can take evrything the wrong way. I honestly really really hate when they dont accept me for who i am. They can be really cool one day and then the next be total bitches i hate that. Maybe its just me sometimes or i dont know i get so irritated.

  But i have a friend that is just like me and i can tell her everything and she understands she looks diffrent but really she is just like me. And all the things that happen to me happen to her. She gives good advice and everything and is always down to have a good time when it is acceptable. I love her so much. She understand me when i am not in the mood for anything, with just sitting down having a boring day watching tv and doing girl things laying not talking chilling on the couch we have a good time.

  She is like a sister to me and i will always remeber her and shes always going to be there for me. Even to bail me out of jail jk. Elisa Cordova we have had some awesome times you understand me and you have always been there for me even in crazy times. Even when i sneaked you in my house and when we danced our butts of to dumb music. You are a blast ily best friend SINCE LIKE 3RD GRADE :)

(RE) to my friend

Today I had a long, boring, crazy, stressful talk with my mom. We talked about how things at home and how its not the same ever since we moved. We also talked about my grades and about me hanging out after school. She says i look unhappy when I'm home and all i do is listen to music.-Violette Pully

   My BEST FRIEND Violette i love you with my whole heart and i feel you on this one. I dont really like talking to my momma either me and you can really relate to that one :). Especially when its those kind of talks that are long, boring, crazy streeful. Oh and about GRADES! If anything is going on at home girl when you are away from your home make the best of it and distract your mind from the problem at home. I always have to do that because its sometimes not easy and its not easy for your parent to try putting a roof over your head.

  Also yes it can be stressful but you giving her the extra more stress about not doing good in school is also abit fucked. I dont know the whole thing about the move so i really cant say anthing about that but everything will be ok. That is all i have to say about that. You know my mom dosent let me really hang out like at all. It sucks and everything but i still make the best of it and i dont even bother about it anymore i got so use to it i am shockingly say i have gotten use to it and i really dont care.

  From the times me and you have talked about things it has seemed that your mom had let you get away alot sometimes. I wish my mom was like that my mom absolutly hold like a grudge and me i no like that :/ Anyways you know how i said in the begining that i dont like these talks i honestly just realized that i just lied. I really think that i came to realize that those talks are really good and i should love them becausae it is eye opening and it is trully sincerly coming out of someone who deeply and strongly loves me. Girl keep your head up everything will be ok and i am always here to hear whatever you have to say. And I will gove you  my HONEST opinion on things. Although really i am not that, that good at advice. Anyways I LOVE YOU BESTFRIEND :) <3 keep slappin that ipod thats some good stuff riaghhhttt derreeee ayeeee :)


(FREE)Special

  I don’t think i am the only one but i feel like pictures are very special to me and to everybody. It gets you to remember the moment, and makes you reminisce on the old times. Some pictures really honestly make me cry. But then others make me cry but tears of joy. Some pictures make me miss the people that have left my life. I really think a picture is worth a million words. With a simple photo taken you can see a lot. Especially my baby pictures those are priceless and mean a lot to my mom. You can capture a special moment you have had and you can look back at it and simply smile. I think pictures can have you have a mix of emotions. Sometimes when I look at a picture feelings naturally come to me. 

  Honestly sometimes I look threw all the photo albums that my family has and it actually makes me remember I had no memory of the picture until i look at it and it just refreshes it and gives me a fresh memory of that day when we took it. I am so happy for the invention of cameras they give us special memories of the times in our lives. My family takes photos everywhere we go and on special days. My parents tell me that once I get old I can have all the pictures that they have token of me and my loved ones. Which means a lot to me because later on in life those pictures are going to mean so much to me and I am going to be able to share them to everybody. I take a lot of photos and a lot have stood out to me I plan on making and album and stuff with a lot of decorations and stuff. I think it will be every cute.

(free) EXCITEEDDDDD :)


Concerts are extremely fun, I love going to them. That is why this Friday I am going to be in San Jose at the Euphoria Tour :) performing there will be Enrique Iglesias and Pit bull with Prince Royce. I am really going because I love Prince Royce he mostly sings bachata but he is starting to mix it up a bit. But I wish he can really just stick to bachata. I like Enrique Iglesias because of his Like it song that was a huge hit when I was in Mexico and it really reminds me of the good times I spend in Mexico which were awesome at the disco. Pit-bull, he has made some good ass dance songs that you can dance too. He has been around for like ever and he always has hits. So I know I am going to be busting some moves at that concert. OOOHHH YEAA!

 The next concert I am also going to is the Katy Perry Concert at the Oracle Arena it is going to be so much fun I am going to go all out I have to go shopping and pick out a nice outfit especially for that day. I like Katy Perry because she shows so much girl power and her songs are bomb. One of the songs I really like from her is Peacock. Also firework and she has so many I mostly like all of them. That is why I like concerts they are so fun and they play alo of my favorite music. I don’t go to concerts of singers I do not like.

(CE) Bayarea 27yr old stabbing.

"Married couple expected to survive after police said their son, 27, attacked them Tuesday night"

So this son of a married couple gets mad hits his parents and also stabs them not life threatening stabs but still. The son was 27 years old and gets mad when asked to move out of his parents house? Okay the boy is big enough to find a job and be independent 27 years old and gets mad and does so harsh actions and could also take his parents life away by his actions is not right.


The 27 year old should have not been so mad when his parents asked him to leave to take such harsh actions towards them. It is good that the parents called the cops on their child, its their son and all but he should be aware of the consequences that his actions have. That was very brutal for him to do and to be so drastic over a little argument and his parents helping him out to help him become independent. This also happened in the bay area not far from alameda it is good that people like that are taken into custody and serve their time for their actions. The stabs he gave to his parents were not life threatening but just imagine if he really seriously did hurt them, would you want to walk in the street of san leandro knowing that, that type of person is out there? I wouldn’t thank god he was taken into custody. After what he did he still leaves the scene and decides to go to his friends house. Was this guy okay, he wasn’t worried about what he did to his parents or anything. Leaving not even knowing if his parents were okay or not.

(CE) Strangling a woman?

 
  This article says a 32 year old man tried to strangle a woman at a park?What is society coming to the lady was just going out for a walk and she tries to get strangled? What in the world is this you cant even go out on a peaceful jogg anymore because of all these creepers.
 
  It is good that the man is facing felony charges because the guy had no right in wanting to strangle a woman. Thank god the woman called the cops to report him and get him off of the streetes. All this happening in the bayarea that is crazy. I think there must of have been something wrong with the guy to have those action because no normal person would even think of doing that kind of stuff to a person who was just jogging. This should be taken serious and all the 3 felony charges should be put on him he deserves it and while they're doing that they should also help him get some help with a therapist of something get him diagnosed. For anything he might have or if he was under the influence of something get him into rehab. This guy must be nuts to try to do that to someone and not thinking that their would be conseqences in his actions. The woman also had to go to the hospital for minor injures they are minor but still he must of have been trying to go after her with full force. The woman was brave and it was good that she punched him to try getting away from him.

(CE) California woman who killed and ate husband is seeking parole

 
  I think that this is really outrageous and that their is other more innocent people in jail who are not guilty as much as this woman who actually really deserves to be in jail. Their are other people in jail that deserve to be out on parole. Unlike this woman who should not even have the right to be considered to be on parole
she killed someone and to top it off she also ate the person, it wasn’t just any person it was her husband this lady has no heart and should be put for life is jail.

 She knew what she was doing and she still went along with everything. She played with his body and cooked his hands she really needs some help i feel sorry for her but her torturing and disposing his body in that way its just cold hearted. She should not only serve those 20 yrs but also more I think she should be life in jail. She is very much capable of doing all this again and the little time that she spend in jail only 20 years for doing that to another human being was nothing and that is probably going to encourage her to do it again since she got so little time and is going see if she will be out on parole. Overall the woman was 27 years old when she did the crime her mind was developed and she knew what she was doing and to commit such crime was not right and she should not be able to go on parole or just serve 27 years for such murder.
 
 

(ESSAY)What makes a Human; Human?


  There is no right or wrong answer for this question no one really knows what makes a human; human. Their could be multiple beliefs in what makes a human human. One of the elements I believe that makes a human; human is the way we reflect emotions. A emotion a strong feeling about someone or something. Humans have many different ways to expose their emotions or deal with them. That is why I think that emotions have a big part in knowing what makes a human; human and how cool a human is. Humans are able to deal with their emotions have control and some emotions no control.
 
A human is a very sneaky person and can do a whole lot with their emotions. For example us humans really can deal with our emotions in sneaky ways. How is it possible that there is a lot of us humans that know how to hide our emotions. Yea there are some of us that wont expose any type of emotion and can really have a wall in front of us and we wont show emotion. Everyone deals with their emotions a different way and some of us just hide them I am one of those people that when I can I will hide my emotions I wont show them I do not want to show them, its just something I choose to do I think showing my emotions shows weakness. I am a very soft person and when I can be strong I want to take advantage of that. I believe most of us who hide our emotions is so people wont see what we are hiding maybe we are going threw a lot and do not want people to see those things and begin judging us. Hiding your emotions also can be something bad I learned that because you are keeping so much to yourself their will be a point when you just explode and have to let it all out at one point. You get fed up with all of it and you need to expose your emotions.


  Humans display their emotions you can see it in their expression. Have you not seen a person and they look very down you can tell by their face that something is bothering them and that there is just something wrong. When you see someone crying you also see that there is something wrong. They are hiding something they are feeling a emotion. And when you see someone crying its usually sadness you really do not know what is wrong with them until you talk to them and figure out what is wrong. Emotions are part of what makes a human you use their 5 senses to show emotion and also reflect emotion . That is just how a human works and how it has a reaction to them. Display emotions by crying be mad bitchy cranky sad glad loved and smiling J

 

  Have you ever sat down and thought how you deal with your emotions? Humans have a variety things that they do to deal with their emotions or feelings some of us do dangerous thing others just can plug in their earphones and start listening to music. It matters how we deal with them. It matters that what we do is safe for us. It helps if we have someone to talk to and someone that is their for us. Do you react to your emotions in a positive manner? Have you seen how animals react to an emotion you can really see it in them and it is visible and noticeable although animals are kind and very lovable they have a heart they also do have a sense of emotion. Unlike us humans we expose some similarities to how dogs react to them and how we tend to react to them. We are unique with our emotions and our emotions our what makes us human not robots.
Changes in your emotions can determine in something you want to do and then something happens and the emotion keeps you from doing what you have had planned to do , sometimes emotions take over your decisions and that makes a slight change to who you are. Because people notice the way you change. Your emotions can change you slowly but also a big 360 change. It can be drastically or just a phase. If you cant control your emotions then you have no power to do anything because you are not thinking clearly and your letting your emotions get the best of you and you should not. That is how most humans are whether emotions are good or bad happy or sad it has a big part in what makes a human, because humans have the heart and mentality to get influenced and to get hurt and be sensitive. While something that is not human does not. Some humans can feel deprived.
 
Uncontrollable emotions some humans can get help from other humans to get through their emotions it is a big help. Love emotions are uncontrollable you cant control who you love it is a natural instinct. When I say a human can help another human for example you had a really hard break up you really loved someone and it ended, your heart broken but then another human can come and slowly make you fall in love and help you forget about the other who broke your heart and you wont have the emotion of feeling heart broken or lonely. Depression is an emotion that can be controllable by medication and therapy and help from a loved one. A dog can feel depression but with help of a human it helps them go through the depression and feel happy.


  What makes a human; human I believe having emotions makes a human , like the examples I gave on how us humans we can hide emotions, how we display them. How we can react to them in a positive manner. How our emotions can change us. Another example I gave was how sometimes our emotions are uncontrollable. All of these things lead to how we are and how special we are and that makes who we are because if we do not show emotion we will be plain it wont make our personalities, whether our emotions are sad or happy and jolly. The emotion we show displays a lot of who we are. And makes up our personality. That is what I think makes a human; human emotions.

(RE) iTS JUST A BAY THING !

"She may be using the N word , but EVERYBODY in the BAY uses the N word and she grew up with black people , so I'm really ain't tripping . Kreayshawn , on the other hand , her song " Gucci Gucci " was nominated for best " NEW ARTIST OF THE YEAR " in VMA's , but did not win" -Vincent Ly

    I agree my boy Vincent ! Everybody i mean everybody in the BAy uses the "N" word. Yea its kind of ridiculous that people still think about it as a bad thing i think it is a bay thing. i kind of believe since she was around people and brought up in the town i kind of think that the black people kind of influenced her into using the "N" word so what the hell is the bad thing and what are people bitchin about? She was around them and they got it stuck on her.I wouldnt be tripping about her using the "N" word thats just kind of the way she expresses herself, i believe everyone expresses themselves diffrently and thats just how she does it. People shouldnt be judging her and saying she cant say that word or she shouldnt use it their are plenty of other words that people or singers use and they're making a big deal about hers that is some bull. They should really get to know her and see how she is and then give their opinion. AS for now i kind of think it is a bit disrespectful and not right for them to tell her what she can say and not say freedom of speech bitches! And she raps and uses the "n" word thats why they like her for her rapping skills and how she present them. V-Nasty SHEE GOOO !

  Gucci Gucci Kreayshawn that is my song, everyone likees that song i think it should of won in the VMA'S it was better than any of these other wacky ass songs that got picked out. I think it is amazing how they both are from the bay that is hella cool. I think more and more underground artist are really good at what they do and they deserve to be put up there and being famous and attending the VMA'S and everything.

(RE) On to the Next :D

" Be the stronger person in this and just act like it doesn't faze you. One day he'll realize he lost someone good and is gunna wanna come back, but you'll be on bigger and better things. Guys aren't gunna help you get through school and stuff so just focus on school and let this boys do what there best at, and that's being DICKS. The right one will come at the right time" * -Tehani Mckeown

  Amen to that girl ! My girl Tehani preach that. Guys aren’t worth it they just stay playing retarded games. Don’t ever but him on your priorities list because they really really have to work to be put on that. Why because they aint worth it, just think of him as a friend he aint shit. No guy really deserves to have a girls full attention. And no guy should think its okay to just get up and leave things, it aint right you cant just leave a girl hanging. We have feelings and sometimes they’re sensitive to things like that. The guy missed out he left you but what he doesn’t realize is that you are his trash but another mans treasure. And he will regret every single little bad thing he did to you and he’s gunna be all alone . Meanwhile you livin it up and having the time of you life with a new guy.

  I am not saying it will be easy to just forget about a guy and act like nothing happened and you will be fine the next day, because you really thought the kid loved you as much as you loved him and he had you heart and threw it away. It will take time the healing process is hard but it will be fine and you will find a new guy. There are plenty of fish in the sea. J Just keep your head up brush your shoulders off, be cool wanna be friends with him and don’t seem all butt hurt about the situation. What happened happened and there is no going back because it aint worth it. He cant fix the broken heart he gave to you and he cant whip all the tears you cried because he left you all alone for yourself to deal with it.

(Free) My Ideal Boyfriend

  As a girl we all know what we want in a guy and In our little heads we have an “Ideal Guy” . Yes we do girls you know it! For me, my ideal boyfriend would make me smile and make me happy. My parents have gave me advice on guys and I really think they are right in what I should look for in a guy so I could be happy with him. I can really trust what my mom has told me she has seen many teenage relationships gone wrong. She was a careers with children teacher at a high school. Yes she has seen pregnant teens and young moms being single with no help, and of course she doesn’t want me to end up like that. So when she doesn’t approve of a guy I know their must be something wrong with the kid because she doesn’t just say it to say it she has a reason. I am in no position to have a boyfriend and at this age I really think that I don’t need one. I would love to have guy friends and have fun with them. But I am to young for a relationship. I am not prepared for a relationship I cant be serious I am 15 years old. But I can see relationships observe them and learn from them. So I can slowly be developing the guy I would like to be with.

  When I observe relationships I see that there are girls who have boyfriends and they are drinkers and smokers. YUCK turn off. Now why would I want THAT in a guy OH NO. That is a no no, those boys are damaging their body and looking at a bad future ahead of them. So my guy would have to be a non smoker and drinker. The boy would have to be serious and be able to settle down. Think about the future he would have with me in it. Be honest caring and loving. Have a nice family and have good communicated. Not an angry person but a sweet person. Knows how to be independent but could have me to support him in any his dreams and goals or achievements.

  By the time as I get older and observe more I will add on to the list and maybe even subtract from the list. But overall this ideal boyfriend could be out there for me. And if I meet someone and doesn’t meet these standards deuces dude.

(biweekly) In The Dark

In The Dark BLACKOUT!!!!! OH SNAP ! A stormy rainy dark day in Mexico i was frighten. It was a vacation I really didn't come to Mexico to be stuck in the house. I really thought i would be outside near the pool or river getting some sun. But no it was a bad time. When it rains in Mexico it rains. I looked outside and the so called street we walked on looked like a weird brown dirty river was passing by. I thought the houses were going to sink.

  I was in the home of my grandparents they were so chill having some Mexican bread with some Mexican creamy hot chocolate. While i was panicking about the rain they told me to relax its just rain but it was nothing like i was use to, it never have rained hard in Alameda like it was here. BOOM thunder bright flashing lighting LIGHTS WENT OUT pitch dark i couldn't see anything the thunder so loud and sounding so powerful. My grandma told me we are going to be out of light for awhile. Go outside to your abuela Flor's old house next door. I couldn't say no to my grandma so here i go leaving threw the back door passing my the corral and into my great grandmothers house. Super dark no light and to top it off i had no flashlight that was what i had to look for and some candles.

  I never really like going to my abulea Flor's house because she died there i never went in by myself but hey, theres a first time for everything. When i opened the door a rush of cold air went by me goose bumps. My grandma told me that the candles would be in my great grandmothers room in the dresser right next to her bed. I walked slowly with my wet shoes thinking i could fall the floor felt a bit slippery i used my hands so they can guide me the walls felt rough. I knew from where i entered was the back door which goes into the kitchen i touched the sink making sure i was where i thought i was i guided my way to finding the hall way OUCH i kind of almost fell it was a disturbing annoying trashcan that hit the floor hard. I stumbled a bit i picked the metal can up. I was in the hall way i knew from the hall way their were two doors you could go in to enter a room. But i remember my abulea Flor's room door had a type of Burgundy silky drape. I check to the right it wasn't it i felt a cold door knob.I swinged my hand to the my left, felt like silk this was it i walked in.

  I tripped and stumbled a few times but in one of those i felt a bed frame in the dark her room seemed huge but it wasn't. Once i felt the wood bed frame i came around felt the cotton sheets i remember the last time i saw them they were light pink beautiful. I went towards the front I felt the dresser i opened it and i think i made a mess in there because i moved me hands back and forth trying to feel for a candle or a flashlight. I had to go way in there to be able to find candle sticks i felt the sticks waxy. I found the candle stands they were metal i knew they where because i felt the hole where the candle goes it was hard and cold. Next i found the big fat flashlight.

  I hurried up and turned it on i was tired and so puzzled in being in the dark kind of frustrated. I lighted the room up looked around and I noticed that the room looked the same as it always does exactly the way my abulea Flor left it. I walked away flashing my way threw with the illuminated flashlight. I went back to my grandmother dark house she was waiting for me at the door she told me,” good you found them i was going to go in there and help you you took kind of long.” Having light or at least a couple of candles and a flashlight was better than nothing. I was glad when the lights came on which seemed like a century later. What a vacation i thought wood be bright and shiny :)

(re) Males Males how Gross Gross

"Males need to start thinking about how it would feel if they had their heart broken. Some girls give into peer pressure and end up doing something they truly regret. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad for the guy to say "NO" for once. Ever thought of that? It wouldn't be horrible if the guy was the one who said "NO" for once." -Jennifer Cully
  
Okay let me just say that I can tell you that what Jennifer wrote about is so true I totally hands down agree with her. I have seen many situations and also heard story's that girls have told me about what guys want from them and what they tell them and honestly some of these guys are like SUPER GROSS! But I do think that some of these girls are what I call "easy" and they should value themselves a bit more and not get so caught up with a guy.
  
  Yea males should know how it feels to have their heart broken but if they haven't yet felt it I am sure that their day will come. The inappropriate things that guys say should be brought to someone’s attention so there could be a stop to it. Guy shouldn't really be saying inappropriate things or trying to have sex with a girl and expecting things from a girl that she isn't ready for. I also wonder where in the world are their parents at I think that parents should pay more attention and know what their child is doing on their phone or on the internet. 

  I am a very trustworthy person and people really trust me with stuff. One of my closest friends once told me some drama about her and a guy she was talking to. But I guess they were friends or something I don't know bottom line he wanted a lot from her. He was very friendly to her and she really thought he was really into her. Then she came one day and told me that she was going to hang out with him. They would text all the time and stuff but never really talked in person which to me was pretty weird. She once told me when they first met the first text they ever had like by the 3rd one he asked her for what I call a dirty picture, that's how it seemed to me when she described what he wanted. When they hung out he tried pulling a move on her and trying to pressure her into having sex thank god she didn't and ever since that happened he kind of stopped talking to her how pitiful he’s so disrespectful. That story in specific makes me agree with Jennifer so so so much!

(free) I know we're cool :)


Have you ever heard the old song by Gwen Stefani Cool. That is one of my favorite songs it remind me of a lot of things. The song sings about a couple and the couple  thought they would never move on without each other and that it seemed almost impossible to forget about each other, but when they split because it wasn't right they ended up finding a new mate and falling in love again with another person other than with each other. But although it seemed impossible and they ended it on a good note they are still cool and they ended up liking the outcome of the situation.
  The song to me is a bit uplifting and to tell you the truth it kind of gives me hope. It gives me hope in numerous situations and outcomes of a situation, that may turn out bad and you might have to leave someone behind but it’s for the best and you will probably like it. Although I don't refer to this song because of like an ex boyfriend but just in general with anybody you may have a bond with it can be a best friend it can be anybody, and it is a good song for me to refer to, because sometimes I just have to leave some stuff behind in my life and move on from them although it may seem like I won’t ever forget, I will and I am living proof that you can forget about serious stuff that might hurt you.
  I have experienced a lot of situations where people are in my life and they just leave and although I never really wanted them to leave and I couldn't see myself without them things happen, and either way they left things being cool. Just because they left they will still and always be with me no matter what . LOOKING AT THE BRIGHT SIDE, EVERYTHING WILL TURN OUT BEING COOL.

(free) My Moment For Life

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwOXj2LD0oU
     Mis XV anos. That day was my moment, it was my day. My quince was sparkling stunning and beautiful surrounded by loved ones was the best feeling ever. So much effort put in it and seeing it all come to life  i was so amazed! The Traditional thing to do when a young Mexican girl turns 15 is being welcomed and recognized to be turning into a young woman.
    The day of my party my day started off early from hair and makeup and changing to my dress and going in the limo with my dearest friend Dani my siblings and my cousins all to just take some stunning pictures at the exploratoruim  in San Francisco and the Mormon Temple in Oakland. Then we were on our way to the venue which was at the Alameda Hotel we had a blast yelling out the window of the limo and blasting music. Settling down and freshening up getting some food in my system before i do my entrance. I also had an awesome type of photo shoot at the venue with my friends taking cool random pictures by a professionally photographer and taking some pictures with my family. Once i settled down i was told to go in the front wait for the music and then begin to walk making an entrance. This had to be one of many of my favorite moments i had during this day. It was amazing because i did it to my favorite song and i tweaked the song a bit for the dj to play my song MOMENT 4 LIFE by Nicki Minaj. When i entered and listened to the song and saw everyone i felt like crying, but i didn't waving to the people who have always been there for me them cheering i mean come on who wouldn't want to let some tears come down. I greeted every single person that was invited and they congratulated me and they told me how amazing i looked and commenting on my dress hair and makeup everyone agreed i looked beautiful.      
    The day was filled with alot of entertainment from me dancing the Val's of the butterfly's the changing of the shoes, which was when my mom took my lovely Toms off and put me some heels. The dance with my last doll which was special it was a twin of me wearing a big quince dress and special to me because it was my last doll which is kind of sad. Giving me my last doll is telling me i am not a little girl anymore i am turning into a women and i don't need dolls anymore.I got to receive the doll by my little cousin who does play with dolls. There was a choreography to go with receiving the doll which was really cute. I had my little cousin in a similar dress as mine dancing towards me giving me a hug and a kiss and happy to give me my last doll. There was also the two surprise dances i had one with my older brother dancing bachata the song Stand By Me by Prince Royce and i had a belly dancing choreography with my sister to waka waka by Shakira.
   Overall most of the time besides the traditional quinceanera stuff that i just mentioned was alot of dancing. There was all kinds of music playing there was alot of food to eat and alot of treats and cupcakes to eat and drinks it was all so yummy. I am sure everyone enjoyed it and everyone seemed to be so happy for me and so amazed how it all turned out and how beautiful. At the end everyone was telling me they had a great time and that i look beautiful. That was my moment and i will never forget the celebration my family did and introducing me to a new time period in my life where i turn into a woman.

(bc) About me

  Do you like to dance? I sure do like to dance. I wish I could dance better though. Girl you just have to work it but, don’t worry it will be fine. Wait ! I am a bit shy though. Girl get rid of the shyness it isn’t good to be shy. Don’t worry you will learn how to forget about it. GET YOU HIP BELTS ON AND BEGIN TO SHIMMY! Wow that was exciting. I thought the movement that I saw was incredible. I am Mexican not from like India or anything so I thought to myself “how in the world am I going to be capable of doing such movement?” I looked around and saw that nobody could really do such movement like the class instructor did and I am Mexican and me thinking that only like Indian people could do it was like the dumbest thing to think because THE INSTRUCTOR WASENT INDIAN. So that motivated me to believe in myself. I thought you know when you learn something new and you want to get good at it you have to practice, so here I was practicing in front of the mirror trying to get better and better at belly dancing. I really didn’t know what I was getting my self into I guess I just thought I wouldn’t need so much help but I actually did I was trying to move areas in my body and trying to form them and I wasn’t use to it. This wasn’t bachata anymore and it also wasn’t traditional Mexican dancing like stuff I was usually use to. I literally felt awkward I was like “ I look ridiculous doing this”. Believe it or not I was thinking about not going to any of the other classes anymore.

  Although I was motivated I was like “NO” this is not for me. But as you know my mother had to get in it and she began to nag about the money she put into it and everything so I had no choice I had to go back. Then what happened as I kept going to more of the classes I began to get more comfortable in doing what I was doing there were some moves that I was really BOM at doing. The teacher even asked ME to demonstrate. My older sister was the best in the class in doing all these belly dancing moves I was jealous, but don’t think of me as a jealous person I am totally not. She had trouble at stuff I was good at and she needed my help like I needed hers in stuff she was good at. Asking for help wasn’t so bad or even asking the teacher for help after class. Now believe it or not want to know something about me , I am super proud of myself me Vanessa Castro can call herself a belly dancer.

   I overcame the obstacles in belly dancing and mastered all the moves. Guess who passed the beginners class me duh ! Guess who even performs in front of a live audience me! Like I put in so much work into mastering and learning how to belly dance I really hope that this year I will be able to give it my all in my English class and getting help in expanding my vocabulary staying on topic and when writing something how to format it so it can stay in order. In all my English classes I have tried to master controlling my run on sentences and I really haven’t accomplished that and this year I really extremely do want to master writing an essay that contains absolutely no run on sentences. I believe in myself and I believe that this year is going to be a good year and I am expecting to accomplish all goals. Although at one point I will want to just stop trying I cant have any of that. I made a promise to myself. As much as I may not want to I kind of have to and it will be for the best.
