Tsunami

    The earthquake in Japan caused a tsunami after which was very disaterous.  If I was in Japan I would be very scared.  I think us as citizens should help those in Japan cause if we were in the situation they were in we would want them to help us out.  As time goes on we should try to help them regain the land and houses they have lost.  I have a friend whose dad lived in Japan and he is okay but he was in the airport as the earthquake happened.  She told me that he is on his way home and I pray for her and her family everyday.

   Next time you think about family and problems you may want to think of those in Japan who have maybe the same problem but a little worse/

OH Egypt !

   In the new lately they have mentioned about the protest happening in Cairo. I think protesting is good but I would still go to work.  The fact that they now do not have a person ruling chaos will begin to erupt.  The military stated that Egypt might become a democratic country meaning that a vote will take place just like in the United States.  I feel as though Mubarak should've waited to step down until the people voted to see who they wanted to rule them.

   If i lived in Cairo I most likely would protest with them if I worked.  People say protesting doesn't work in many cases but so far it has done a good deed to the people of Egypt.  They have almost achieved there goal of better wages for work and better conditions.  I think we as the United States should support them in their time in protest and help them along the way get things to be better in there country.

Life !

     

       Life.  I been through a lot in my 16 years of living.  My mom said it can only get better from here one day when I had gotten into some trouble.  I will always remember her saying that cause at that point in my life I was in to deep.  Now I'm starting to see the light, but lately people who are supposed to be there for me have dug me deeper.  I am almost to the point of letting them go as friends because they obviously haven't figured out that I'm done with all the bull. 
     This morning my dad and I were talking about college and I made the comment "I can't wait to get out of Ohio."  He asked me why I was ready to leave so bad and I told him it was because there is nothing in Ohio that is making me become a better person.  He then told me that I haven't seen all of Ohio to know that.  He's right, but I feel like when it's time for me to go off to college I wont feel trapped and have all the problems that I have had.
       I already know what I am going to do with my life.  I'm going to go to New York or California for interior designing then go for business management.  I don't plan on getting married very early or having kids.  When I get out on my own I want to do things for me and not have to worry about how everybody else is feeling.  That may sound harsh, but I haven't had time to myself since I was in elementary school.
      I titled this blog life because life is something you only get once so live it like you'll die tomorrow.

Another Planet

     Another Planet is a new song by Jawan Harris featuring Chris Brown.  The song is talking about how Jawan is on another planet pretty much saying that has more swagger than any one.  I like this song because it has a good base line and the lyrics are catchy.  Also it is kid appropiate and not sexual like most songs these days.  It also has a tecchno pattern of music.  My style of music has changed a lot through out the new year.  I think if you are into hip hop, techno, or a good base line you should check Another Planet out and even look for the video.

Dah-De-Dah

       Music is a great way to express yourself.  Many people that the media seems to portray like pop music.  Sometimes people separate themselves with others because of the different music they listen too.  For example, my friends and I mostly listen to hip-hop and rap.  I know several people who actually hate hip-hop music and I never really understood why.
     I try to listen to different genres of music.  I actually like some pop, rock, and metal because they relate to my life in a way.  My all time favorite artist though is R&B singer Trey Songz.  Many people think of his songs as being sexually only and some of them are.  There are some songs that do express the pain that he fells and all of it comes out in his latest album Passion, Pain & Pleasure.  One song that has captivated me is Unfortunate. 
    Unfortunate talks about, in my own words, someone that has taken advantage of you and realizes how much they need you in the long run.  But you don't want to go through the pain that they caused you so your telling them how unfortunate it is that realized at the wrong moment that you needed them. 
     There is also another song that I really liked over the past year.  The song is Deuces by Chris Brown.  The song pretty much represents the fact that sometime you just need to say peace to someone that has caused you pain and move on with you life.
     Last year these songs came in great way for me to express myself.  I think everyone should express themselves in a way meaning most to them.

Delicious Creepy Crawlies

Have you ever tried to a spider or how about a cricket. In the United States many people frown upon on the fact of eating insects.  In other countries around the world many people think of eating insects as a delicacy.  In China many people serve there food with insects.
I watched a video by TED telling how insects are more nutritous than other animals.  There are also a lot more insects in the world than cows over even chickens.  So the supply for insects is way more afordable and high.  If it ever came down to it I probably would eat bugs just add some spices to make it taste better.  I have eaten a worm once when i was little and it wasn't half bad. Maybe we should all think about eating bugs in the future.

Black Friday!

Black Friday was held on November 26, 2010.  Many people went out early, but my friends Alaina, Breanna and I went in the afternoon.  There still was ton of people out. We all went shopping for Christmas presents.  I got a good portion of my shopping done.  I got presents for my mom and Alaina.  I still have to get presents for Hayaley, my sister and my dad.  I don't have a job so I get all my money from good grades and chores.  I get 10 dollars for my weekly chores and 50 dollars for getting all A's.  I sometimes ask my parents for money early so that I am able to get all the gifts that I need to get.

The sales on Black Friday were pretty good.  There were many stores that lowered there prices quite much.  Express had everything in the store for 40% off until 12 o'clock and then % off after 12.  I bought my mom a cardigan from there and I got her some lotion and perfume from Bath and Body Works.  Black Friday was a blast and I can't wait to go again next year.
