Not a borring book haha

I don’t like to read books, I always tend to fall asleep or ill be reading but my mind is in another place. But, there’s one book that I actually got my attention. This book is called “The Kite Runner” by Khaled Hosseini. I had to read this book in my speech class back in high school and I remember my teacher telling us to read the back of the book first so we can get an idea of what the book was going to be about, after reading that I wanted to open the book and read it right away. This book is about two young little boy’s named Amir and Hassan, Amir was a lower class kid and Hassan was more on the wealthier side but that didn’t stop them from being best friends. They did everything together and there’s a lot of parts in this book that made me bust out with couple of tears here and there for example, there’s a part in this book where Amir and Hassan fly there kites and compete against other kids in the neighborhood, the point to there game was to cut any other competitors kite and they had to be the last ones standing. They won, Hassan knew where the kite would land so he went to go get it and bring it back to keep it as a trophy. On his way there he encountered one of the neighborhoods bully (Assef). Assef told Hassan to give him Amir’s kite but he refused. Assef decides to teach Hassan a lesson by raping him. The part that made me completely sad was that Amir saw all this happening but was too scared to confront Assef. I really recommend reading this book and watching the movie! Watching the movie gives you a much better understanding of the book.




Heres the trailer for the movie..

idk how to title this Cx

By reading this book it has some what affected me because I found out a lot about fast food restaurants and the way everything works. I would always ask myself how everything was made where it came from, who did it. Why? And obviously when I was reading this book it gave me these answers and some of the stuff made me really surprised about it. Everything is so cheap; but for the reason that the stuff they use. When I read some of the parts on this book made me get really grossed out.
 I think I would really make some changes when it comes to eating fast food; even though I don’t eat a lot of it because im not a big fan; its usually my last resort. But then again fast food is really tempting ive noticed that everytime I come out English class I crave some McDonalds fries or McNuggets and that’s not good. Ill totally make an effort though.  Some of the issues it made me think of is how these companies try to get everything for cheap, and how slaughter houses can be really unsafe for workers and they only try to get at the immigrants and how the workers get treated with no respect at all and I that’s really sad.

Who doesn't LOVE school?

First off I want to say we should have more blog’s like last week; right? It was fun reading and trying to guess the truth. Anyways my truth was number five, I still cant believe I didn’t go up to her!


            
I think were half ways in the semester! Isn’t that a relief. I really thought this semester was going to be a piece of cake. But its not! I’m taking math, Chicano studies, English, marine bio, marine bio lab and this lovely online course. So I’m at OC all days of the week except Fridays which is good because that’s a party day! I don’t work right now so im only attending school, but I also have other responsibilities at home and helping my parent’s out around the house while there working. All the work for all these classes pile up like crazy each week and I get really stressed, sometimes I get to the point when I want to quit and just work and reach for my goals without any school. But, since school is everything I know if I quit its going to take longer or maybe not even get to my goals I have for myself. So I always tell my self to suck it up! And just try my best and study hard for what I really want so that’s what I’m currently doing.  I really like all my classes though I don’t think it’s that hard. My marine bio lab class is sort of difficult, for me at least. When I first signed up for that class I thought I was going to be learning about the marine life and all this cool stuff but its not so far what I’ve been learning is how to read maps what all the numbers and lines mean and all sorts of fancy stuff and its pretty cool but sort of hard to understand.
            My motivation in staying in school and continuing is really just MONEY. I have so much plans and goals in my life sometimes I think I’m crazy for thinking all this. But hey! If they can do it I can to! And maybe even ten times better. I want to be someone in life, someone people can look up to, I want to make my family proud, make my own future family proud, and most important make myself proud! For what I’ve accomplished in life, I also want to prove wrong all the people that doubt me and talk down on me and one day be like Ha!Ha! In your face! And walk away with this expression in my face à:P

"I don't need no love all I need is the DJ"


In life there’s always a whole lot you have to think about, a lot of changes and opinions and attitudes towards things. Personally, I change my mind a lot about being in a relationship. Back in high school I had a boyfriend my freshman year and we went out for a year and five months, but we would always break up and ended back together. One day I finally said enough of all this craziness and broke up with him. After all this I started talking to another guy and we talked for a pretty long time. Then, he asked me to be his girl friend and obviously I said yes; we went out for a year and nine months. The last two months I would really get annoyed when I was with him, I got to the point when I wanted to be single for a while and the reason was because I wanted to go out and party it up with all my friends and not worry about what guys I talk to and what not. So I called it off and I’ve been single for three years now.
 I usually go out every weekend, there’s weeks when I start my partying every Thursday and end Sunday nights I just love to dance. Sometimes I wouldn’t get really lucky though because my parents can be very over protective with me and always think the worst when I go out. I love having a good time and hanging out with my friends when I get the chance.
Recently I’ve thought about getting back in to a relationship because I sometimes want someone there I can sit with, watch movies, and be silly about stuff. Most of my friends have boyfriends or are talking to someone. And usually when I see all this I think a lot and ask myself if I’m really ready to get back in to a relationship, because being single after all these years you kind of get used to the single life; and it’s usually hard to get in to that relationship mode again. But I always tell myself if I really meet someone that I truly see myself with my thoughts would definitely change, so right now I’m just going with the flow, because I’m still young and still want to have a good time and I always say the real party don’t start until your 21 and I have one more year to go so I’ll see what happens.

All because two people fell in love..


Family starts when two love birds fall in love and create bundles of joy. A family is there for you through thick and thin no matter the situation, there the ones you can count on anything. A family consists of different things for example having a sense of commitment, team work, showing respect for each other, being reasonable, and knowing how to forgive. A family without any of this isn’t really a family at all. In every family there’s always an argument and when confronting it its much better when you talk it out instead of yelling at each other and using sarcastic comments and sometimes even offending the persons involved in it. Working as a team is always very important because if you don’t you can quickly turn a little situation to a huge problem and start attacking each other with fighting words instead of working together to resolve the problem. Working as a team is like ants helping each and every single one of them to get a piece of food to a certain spot, and if they don’t work as a team there’s nothing.
            My family is my everything; If it wasn’t for my lovely parents my brothers and myself wouldn’t be here. I have a family of five, which is my parents and 2 younger brother’s Fernando (17) and Brandon (5) making me the only girl and the oldest.
We all have a good communication with each other and get along very well…sometimes. I usually argue with my brothers when ever they don’t listen to me. I can be asking Brandon if he can pick up his toys from his toy room and he answers back with “I don’t want to do it, I’m so tired” and I think to myself tired of what? When ever I ask Fernando for help on some chores he says “yeah, ill do it right now” and obviously that never happens. But even with all this I love them both no matter what. It’s really rare if I have arguments with my parent’s because I always do my best in helping out around the house and having the house nice and clean; sometimes I even cook for them, if I have the time of course. I thank god for the family I have because I sometimes see situations with other families and it’s just sad to see the lack of respect they have for one another.
