blog 15 !


I’ve had plenty of good times, but the most memorable time was the day of Grad night to Disneyland with my classmates. It was the time of year for graduation where everyone was excited to go on this trip before the big day arrived. My friends and I got on the bus and headed off to Disneyland, as teenage girls, we were all laughing, impatient and excited. Once we got there, Grad night was not just about Channel Island students but other schools joined as well.  We waited anxious to get out and have a good time. First, my friends and I went on the Splash Mountain ride which was pretty fun. After that my friends and I went to the Grizzly Peak Attraction, that ride was fun and got us super soaked. Once we got off the ride, we all went to the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. That ride had my heart pumping and I was pretty scared while all my friends were all excited; since they love fast rides. Later in the evening, we continued to go on rides at Disneyland and watched the water world show.  As it was getting dark, bunch of people crowed the stage and loud music started to play. There was a DJ performing, different color lights were surrounding it and lots of people were jumping up and dancing. Me and my friends went over there and were dancing to the point where our feet were hurting badly. We waited until they did the countdown for the Class of 2012 and once they did, a bunch of beautiful fireworks exploded in the sky and everyone shouted with excitement. I had a great time with my friends because it was memorable and fun.

My Advice For Future Students!


The best advice I could give your future students, is prepare yourself to start writing a lot. Make sure your work is completed and spell check and proof read your writing. Mrs. Croker is very strict on grammar and punctuation (especially your work cited for your research paper).

When I first started blogging it was something new, like writing in a journal about your thoughts but public for the viewers. What I liked about the blog was that everyone wrote personal stories that were interesting and others showed their personality in writing. Being the honest person I am, I would not continue writing on blogs because I feel like it’s a waste of my time and I had a hard time just trying to write a paragraph, lol. I enjoyed reading everyone’s blog, they had heart felt stories and unique writing style.  Well, hope you all have a good summer break and good luck with your future

Blog 14 Three Important People In My Life


Many people are important in my life but the only woman that I can trust is my mother. She is light skin, her cheeks are naturally rosy, and she has big beautiful light brown eyes which are piercing when you look at them. Her hair is golden brown, wavy and short and her lips are always painted red. My mother may look serious but when you get to know her, she’s the sweetest and most talkative person you’ll meet. At times she could be a bit feisty and a hot tempered but at the end of the day she’s very understanding. She’s a very protective mother and wants the best for her children. My mother is kind and always put her children first. She will always have a place in my heart even though we sometimes dont see eye to eye.

The second person who is important in my life is my dad. My dad is tan and a head full of grey hair. His eyes are small like little olives and may look a bit nerdy with his glasses. He’s always wearing short sleeve shirts and it has to have a pocket so he could put his pens and screw drivers in. My dad is very humorous, yet he doesn’t need to try to be funny. He is one of the mellowest and caring individual. My dad has an obsession with pens and ice cream; he can’t go a day without these necessities. He’s very hard working person and can’t go a day without sitting down and relaxing. My dad is important to me because he is the man that I will always look up to.

The third person who’s important in my life is my sister Julisa. My sister hair is short, brown with honey blonde highlights. She has a light complexion and extremely gorgeous; Big brown eyes. She can be a bit shy and reserve but once you meet her she’s full of life and giggles. My sister is very strict, patient and sensitive and is a wonderful person to go to for advice. We have a great bonding relationship and are always together. She is important to me because she is my role model in my life.

O-sabi Restaurant Blog 13


Have you’ve ever been to Osabi’s if you haven’t, your missing out because this place is incredibly delicious; it will have your taste buds screaming out “I want more.” This place is located in the beautiful city of Ventura which is off the North 101 freeway of Victoria. Make sure you take enough money because this place can be quite expensive but for sure it will leave you satisfied. Once you enter those wooden heavy doors you’re greeted by a friendly greeter. The inside of this place is amazing, the place is lightly dimed which makes it romantic to take out your partner. Once you’re seated at your table, your seating at a table with different people while they have a stove in the middle that a chef prepares your meal in front of you with an awesome presentation which includes a volcano onion with fire in the middle. The waiters are fast and don’t take longer than other restaurants; their quick and always there if you need anything. Now the menu is delicious, I personally like to get the chicken teriyaki and shrimp, it comes with grilled vegetables, fried white rice and on the side they give you three sauces. Out of the three sauces the best sauce I recommend you to try is the white sauce. It tastes really good when you put it all over your food. Also, they have sushi served with salad but I don’t recommend you getting sushi here because it’s not that great. The deserts from here are really good; they have Mochi ice cream which you can pick different types of flavors like chocolate, green tea, strawberry, rainbow sherbert or vanilla. Another thing is that the restrooms are always clean, not like other restaurants where they are disgusting and everything is on the floor.

FAST FOOD NATION BLOG 12


Ever since I was young, I grew up eating meat all the time, at parties, barbeques on Sundays and having it done all over again.  This habit was a constant thing to have because meat to me was something that made the whole dish complete. As I started reading the book Fast Food Nation, I realize that fast food is very bad for you. Fast food has so many chemicals inside the foods that are dangerous and can make u feel sick as well as getting food poisoning. One of the chapters that surprise me the most is chapter nine. I felt disgusted on how the cattle’s were being fed and how they treated them. Also, on how they were feeding them newspapers. This book has affected me in a positive way because now I think twice before I eat any of that junk. This doesn’t mean that I won’t ever go to a fast food but I am willing to eat it once in a while. The issues that had made me think of is health because of how the meat is process and how there’s a higher rate in the United States who have obesity.

Week 11 & the Truth


The TRUTH is I got stiches on my head when I was twelve years old.

This semester has been a challenge but at the same time I’ve enjoyed most of my classes. I’m a fulltime student who’s taking four classes that’s taking me a step closer to transferring. The classes I’m taking are: Anthropology, Math, and Psychology and of course English. These couple of months has been nothing but studying and bunch of assignments that keep on piling up. I can’t wait until I’m done with these classes and move on to the next.  One of my classes that I’m having a hard time is math. I have to admit, I really hate math with the passion; I’m just not the math genius. Now let’s talk about English, not very fond about this class because the constant work load is driving me insane, but I do enjoy the Professor because she’s very helpful and explains the work well. My Psychology class is another pain because it’s all about memorizing definitions and lots of exams. Now the one class I do enjoy the most is Anthropology, the Professor Is funny and makes the class fun and interesting because all we do is watch video clips. Even though I’m facing challenges in some of my classes, I know someday it will pay off. What keeps me motivated on going to class every day and doing homework is looking towards my future and where I am going to be at. I want to have a good job that I will enjoy and be successful. What keeps me going is my family because they motivate me to go to school and always tells me to never give up on your goals. I know I will accomplish all my goals soon but it’s just going to take time and patience.
