This semester was nothing what I expected
and I did not expect to learn so much. I was scared coming into this class, and
I was not sure I could pass it. I did not like it at first, and I thought I was
going to hate this class with a passion.
However, after a couple weeks I started to like the class, and my
classmates too, well some of them. I thought I was getting overwhelm with all
the essays at the end I thought I was going to go crazy. Some of the subjects were not that interesting
to me, and I didn’t really give a crap about it. One of my mistakes that I had
this semester was waiting to the last minute to do my essays. I think if I would have taken this class a little
more serious, I would have been not so stressed. I do not think I will continue to blog because,
of personal reasons. I had fun blogging
and having the chance to meet new people. I thought the funniest blog that we
had was the one about the 3 truths, and one lie. I thought some of my
classmates came up with some pretty funny stuff. I had learning experience this semester, and I’m
glad I got to meet new people and become friends.

A Night to Remember
It was a cold
chilly night, and the bright lights were shining down on us. My
teammates and I had nerves shaking through our spines. This could be
one of our games playing as a team, and when we warming up it was
silence. I could not believe that we had made it to the CIF
finals,and we were playing against a team who had beat us before. We
all could hear each others heartbeat, and we all were breathing hard
we wanted to win this game. AS soon as the whistle we attacked as a
team, and play for each other. The nerves slowly went away,and we all
got into our comfort zone. The ball was going back and fort, and long
beach had opportunities to score and so did we but each time somone
would save it. It was the 36 minute in the game my teammate Riley
Ridgit had this moment where she headed the ball from a cross . We
all jumped up and down that feeling of a little relief, but it was to
close to say who would win.. Half time came, and we were all tired
breathing hard so much that you could see the heat from our head.
Before the second half we came together, and said won or lose we are
a team, and I knew at the moment we deserved to win. A couple minutes
into the second half Riley got a pass from Miranda again and she
headed it in, and we all looked at each other maybe this could be our
game. After that it felt like the game was going to end. I looked at
the clock there was less than a minute away, and then 10 seconds
left. Five four three two one, and the whistle blew. We were CIF
champions everyone ran to each other hugging each other. All of us
were crying and happy this actually happened we worked so hard ,and
we deserved it. After that I knew this was probably one of the best
teams I would ever be on. I cannot describe to you how we all felt it
was just happiness,and we felt all our hard work was paid off. And
the rest is history.

Reading Twilight
One
movie that has recently came out was Twilight:Breaking Dawn Part Two,
and I thought it was good and took my breath away. However, the books
are much better,and more detailed. Many people do not understand the
impact that this series has done to the public. Many young and old
people have fell in loved with these books. The author Stephanie
Meyer is very smart on how she implies the characters in the text,
and she makes the reader want more. I am a fan, and I am not afraid
to say so, but I read all the books even before the movies came out.
Once I read the first book I had to read the rest, and when I was in
the high school I would read the books in class. But when the movies
came out everyone started to be a fan, and it got me mad because
real fans read the books before anything. But back to the book I
wasn't a reader until I read these. When anyone reads these people
get dawned in and pictures in their head. People are probably tired
of hearing about twilight, but everyone is a sucker for love stories.
I know that a love story like this makes you want to believe that it
can happen, and I know I speak for a lot of girls. This series of
books is great, and it helps you to become aware of reading. After I
finished I wanted to read books, and I did I kept reading ,and now I
try to read at least one book at a time. If anyone wants to get
started on reading I think you should try this, and if anyone is
wanting a love story you should read this book. Regardless if you
hate it or love it is an amazing book series.

After reading Fast
Food Nation I can honestly say I do not eat at McDonalds anymore, and
I do not plan on eating there ever again. I did not know any of the
history about fast food, and now that I know much of it I get
disgusted. I used to go to McDonalds all the time, and now I cannot
not even go and eat anything thing in there. I feel like I gain so
much information, and it has helped me not to go eat out as much. I
cannot even stand the meat, and how they sell it to people like that.
I think that people need to have the right to know what they are
putting in their mouth. If more people read this book they could
help themselves, and others from getting sick and helping the be
healthy . I can understand why some people would become vegetarian
based on this book, because it has so many details how food is
processed and how little care goes into it. I used to love chicken
nuggets now I just don’t want to eat them anymore. The only the I
will eat out is pizza, and I will not eat at McDonalds for a while.
Better yet never again

Changing my past
I
am not the same person I was about two years ago, and I better idea what I want
in life. When I was in high school all I wanted was for everyone to like me and
be my friend. Everyone in school knew me as “nana the nice girl”, and it wasn’t
a bad name, until people started to take advantage of me. The friends that I had
back than I do not have now. I would let my so called friends tell me what to do,
and do things for them. I knew that it was not good, but I wanted everyone to
like me, and at times my friends would be rude to me and I would take it. At times I felt that I was losing myself, and
all I wanted to be popular, and that wasn’t me. Many of the friends I had in
high school didn’t care about school, and wanted to party all the time; but
that wasn’t me. After we graduated I started to see what friends actually
mattered to me. People say you find out who your true friends are after high
school, and I fully believe that. I thought I was going to stay close to
everyone, but I didn’t. With time I started to realize the friends I had didn’t
push me around, and didn’t take advantage of me. The friends I had cared about
me and wanted the best for me. I felt like
I was getting to like myself, and I wasn’t around people with bad motives. I
can say I have changed, I do not care if people do not like me, and I am happy
the way I am. If someone does not like that, it is their problem. I refuse to
let one tell me how to live my life, and I am in a good place right now with
people who care about me, and want me to succeed in life.
