Hawaii

Hawaii

Hawaii is a very beautiful place I believe by the pictures I see on the internet. I would love to visit Hawaii one day because first of all it is a gorgeous place and it calls my attention to visit. For my 15th birthday  I want to spend a week over there. I am still unsure if I should go or have a quincenera. Well anyways, I would also like to visit Hawaii because I would like to try different foods, learn about their tradition, and experience how they live their lives over there. It also seems fun because you can go visit any volcanoes, swim with the animals, take tours, surf, and watch Lua's. It also calls my attention because of the color of the ocean. The ocean is also clean. Hawaii consists of 6 mainly visited Islands. Each Island has its own distinct character and vibe, cultural history and rare opportunities to experience. Hawaii is the best destination on earth for an adventurous family vacation. That's my goal to go to Hawaii with my family. I would really like to go on a helicopter tour! I've never been on one and since Hawaii has many beautiful things to see, it would be fun. I've also heard that the stage shows are fascinating to watch. Especially when they do Lua's with fire. I've always dreamed of getting in the water with a nice color and all those types of details ever since I was a little girl and I still do. I consider going to Hawaii with my family and friends. Hopefully someday I go to Hawaii.

"Kindness is the essence of greatness."

"Kindness is the essence of greatness." 
By: Joseph B. Wirthlin


This quote means that the only way to live and have a successful life is to have greatness in you and in life. Everywhere, there is greatness. For example, there is a student who is really great at Algebra and P.E. and they are very kind to people who they are not familiar with. Kindness is the nature of greatness. Another example is if you're a nice person the essence of greatness might perhaps come to you. Being kind is choosing the right. Everybody deserves to be treated with respect. You shall never judge a book by its cover. I agree with this quote because if you're nice, you will be safe and will feel happy. For me, this quote tells me that kindness makes other people feel happy. I think kindness is a powerful term that means greatness because you would be a great person in life. 

Thanksgiving Week

Thanksgiving Week

On Thanksgiving Day, I went to Azalea and shopped at Forever 21 to look for a cute outfit for Thanksgiving. After that, my mom, sister, and I got ready to go to my aunts house and gather up with our family to eat dinner. My aunt and grandma made panes con pollo, tamales, posole, and champurado. That's my favorite part of celebrating Thanksgiving to be honest because I love to stuff myself with good food. I really enjoyed eating panes con pollo. After we ate, we all gathered up to do Secret Santa this year. It was a new experience for our family because we don't normally ever do that. For my Thanksgiving break I went to Downtown LA, Foxhills Mall, my dad's house, and to Edward's Theater. I also went to one of my bestfriend's Quincenera. It was really fun and I really appreciated that she invited me. Other than that, I would lay down all day resting and watching movies on Netflix.  On Sundays I watched NBA Football with my dad. My CTR experiences were to thank my family and friends for always sticking by my side no matter what and putting up with. Especially to my mom. It must be hard for a single mother to raise two kids on her own. I didn't read any books because I was too busy going out. On the last day of our Thanksgiving Break, I decided to do my homework. That always happens to me. I end up doing it at the last minute because I choose not to take the time to do it on my break.

"If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, do not say it."

"If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, do not say it." 
By:Marcus Aurelius 


This quote means that if you feel that something is not right, you shouldn't do it because after you'll feel guilt and it is the wrong thing to do. It's also saying that if you hear anything like for example a rumor about anyone, you should not say it because it is not true. You wouldn't want anyone to say anything about knowing if it's true or not. You shouldn't do any of these things because that is choosing the wrong and you will have to go through some bad consequences if you get caught. There are many consequences when you choose the wrong and you don't want to go through them because you will regret it. If you choose the right you will be rewarded. You shouldn't be doing something that isn't right and making up stuff if you know it's not true. This quote is amazing because it's showing us that we shouldn't pay attention to the bad decisions people have said, put to correct those people on their own mistakes. If you know what you're doing is wrong, do the opposite and do the right thing. Doing what is right and saying what is right is always the best thing to do. The reason why is because if you choose the right, good comes your way and you will always have success in your life. In my opinion, this is a good quote from Marcus Aurelius. People should consider it because talking what is not true and choosing what is not right can affect your life.

Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Day


The first thanksgiving in the United States was on Plymouth Rock in Massachusetts in 1621. The pilgrims held their second thanksgiving celebration in 1623. Thanksgiving is the time when the pilgrims came to America and celebrated by having a feast with some Native Americans in the area that helped them get food. It was a huge feast with many people there. Today we celebrate Thanksgiving to get together with family or friends. Turkey is the most common popular food to eat on Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a feast of thanksgiving, held on the fourth of Thursday in November in the United States. Traditionally, it is held to remember the celebration by the pilgrims of the first harvest in the new North America colony. The pilgrims wanted to thank the Native Americans for letting them have the opportunity and helping them survive in the new world. The next day is Friday which is known as Black Friday. Stores are considered in the Black when they have profit. Many stores have big sells and many people go Christmas shopping. Some stores open at 5 a.m. and people line up to get best discounts. So Black Friday means lots of stores making money and hopefully lots of people getting good deals. The day after Thanksgiving and Christmas is when people start setting up the Christmas lights.  

12 things I am thankful for:
  1. Family
  2. Friends
  3. Food
  4. Health
  5. My Determination
  6. Quality of life
  7. My self esteem
  8. My mom
  9. Sense of purpose 
  10. Social Interest 
  11. Optimism 
  12. My relationship

"Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing."

"Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing."
By:Chick Moorman
This quote means that doing what is right, fair and honorable is way more important than winning or losing. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, it only matters if you do what's right. Winning can be a good thing but when you lose it's ok because there is always a next time and you just need to practice. You should never give up on what you want to accomplish. It's best to be a good sport than winning or losing. In a game it's mostly important to be fair and honorable. This is like a good sportsmanship.You're being fair and not being a inaugurate. And rather than winning or losing it's best for you to be doing the right. Most people will see and notice the sportsmanship that you have and it doesn't care if you win or lose it's about choosing the right.
