You had four days off, tell me about them.

I had four days of because of thanksgiving. They were pretty cool and chill. The first day which was Thursday, i went to Walmart with my friend and his mom, and we bought a lot of things for his little sister and for us too. I spent like $10 on some things i needed. After that we went home and ate, after we ate we played some Ps3 for like about 3 hours and then we went to the store with his dad. After we got back they took me home and my mom had already made the food for later in the night. We waited for the family to come and then we did a little prayer, then we ate.

I ate a lot that day i was full but then later on i was even more hungry. On Friday my mom and i went to the mall to get some clothes since they had discount. We went early in the morning and got back home like around 6 in the afternoon. We bought a lot of clothes for me and her and my dad. On Saturday, it was my sisters birthday, so we had a little party for her. All of our family came and stayed over until late in the night. We ate and had games for the little kids to play. After that we cleaned up and we went to sleep. The next day which was Sunday, we woke up like around 10 in the morning , and ate. After we ate we took a shower and we took my little sister to my aunts house. We stayed there for a while, she had fun playing with my little cousin. I had fun too because my cousin and i played some Ps3. That's how my four day weekend was.

When was the last time you did something nice for someone? Why did you do it? did they appreciate it?

Last time i did something nice for someone was about a week ago. My cousins friend was coming over and we had decided before that we were going to go eat at Dominos pizza. When my cousin and his friend got there we got a ride to Dominos, and we were all going to pitch in $5, since we ordered a large pizza with two toppings. When we ordered the pizza, and the total was $20. When it came down to paying we asked him for his money and he said that his mom didnt have any money and she didnt give him none. So i thought that was messed up, that his mom didnt give him money so i put in extra $5 and we took the pizza home. When we got there he said,
"Thanks man i was hungry but i didnt want to tell you guys i didnt have money,because i felt embarrased". I told him that it was alright and that he shouldnt have worried about it. That was the last time i have done something nice for someone.

If you had unlimited funds and could buy anything you wanted what would you get and why? Would you buy anything for your friends and family? If so what would you get them and why?

If i had unlimited funds i would buy a new Ps3, some shoes, clothes, a haircut, food, games, new computer, and European car. I would buy a house for my mom and dad and would get them anything they wanted. I would probably get my cousins and aunts something like a fridge or t.v but that would be it. The rest of the money i would spent it and probably donate some to charity or something. Since my money wont waste i would probably consider buying the PlayStation company and the Sony company too. That's what i would do with my unlimited funds.

How did you meet your closest friend? How long have you been friends?

I met my closest friend at school. We had the same class and we sat next to each other in two periods. We didnt know each other at first and we didnt talk much for like the first two weeks, but after the second week we started talking about work, and then later on we go to know each other more. I asked her name and she said it was Michelle, so i introduced myself and ethen we started hanging out and getting to know each other more. We have been friends since like the 4th grade. We have been friends ever since. I think i would consider us best friends because we have been there in thje good and the bad moments.

What would have happened if you didn't leave the house this morning? Describe your day.

If i wouldnt have left my house this morning i would have stayed sleeping until 9 or 10. After that i would have played some ps2 for about two hours straight, and after that i would have ate something. Then later on i would have used my computer to search some videos on youtube and other important things like the things going on in NASA or something. After i did all that i would have gone out to get something to eat, and then go back home and wait for a good movie to start. Then finally my parents would come and i would have to go with them to the store or something. So my day would b e pretty active and unboring.

Before life is over i sense that i must go to a university and make lots of money. I think that i have to go to a university and study for a carrer i want and make lots ofmoney for my children to enjoy when they are grown. I will enjoy it at first , but then after i have kids i will let them enjoy the money. But to do this i first have to study and get good grades to be able to accomplish my sense. I will start doing good in school and get involved in activities and stop hanging out with the wrong people. I will not do things i wish not to do and would not get pressured to do something bad.

What do you do on days that you get out early?

On the days that i get out early, i sometimes go eat, or sometimes i just go home and do my homework. I go to eat because i dont like the food they give in school so i just go to Mcdonalds or something and then i go home and do my homework. I do all my homkework on early days because my teachers give me a lot and i have to turn it all in by the next day, and so i dont wait until the night to do it. I also do all my homework when i come out early, even thoughits not due the next day i just go ahead and do it sothe rest of the week i would be free and wont hvae to do anything anymore.

Do you think everyone should get married?
Whats a good age to settle down?

Yes i think everyone should get married. Every body has the right to spend the rest of their life with who ever they want to be with. I think people should get married but some people think differently, and think that they should not get married. When a couple loves each other really much then that's when they decide they should get married and have kids to prove their love to each other.

I think that a good age to settle down is at 30. I think this because you can get to know more girls and and have more girlfriends meanwhile your in your 20's, because when you're 30 and over girls think its creepy if you try to pick up on them. I also think that between your 30's and 40's you could settle down because their are a lot of older women that are single and want a husband so then its not over until you finally meet someone you really like and want to be with the rest of your life

What grade do you think you deserve in this class and why?

I think i deserve a "A" on this class. I think this because i do all my work and i havent missed any of the journals or lessons. I dont know about the past quizzes we had, but thats what probably is not getting me the grade i want. I think i deserve a A because i do all that i can to do my best and earn the grade i want. Most of the time i finish all my work before its due and every time i get checked for assignments they are complete and done with all the instructions that were given.

Describe your dream job.

My dream job is too work as a computer engineer. I want to make, fix and build computers. My dream job is also to make software and make new technological devices for example a new Playstation, the "PS5". My dream job would require time,but when you like something then the time goes by fast. I would like to have a dream job that you dont do anything and still get paid, but i would like to do that and make more money than the person that is doing nothing and is still getting paid. I would like to work with computers because they are the future and soon many people will be using computers more than they are now. Computers will be replacing many files used by the federal government and also papers filed in jobs.

If you only could eat one thing the rest of your life what would it be and why?

If i could eat something for the rest of my life it would be Mickey D's Chicken Nuggets and a large Soda. I would eat this the rest of my life because they are bomb and they taste good when you dip them in ketchup or barbecue. When you get the chicken nuggets and you feel them they afre hot, but as you start to taste them you dont even care if theyre hot or cold. I would consider eating this the rest of my life because in a way they are kind of healthy. I would drink the coke so i wont get full very easily and i could have room for more.

When you think about it chicken nuggets are good when they are crunchy, warm, and are dipped in your favorite sauce. That is the reason why i would consider eating Mickey D's Chicken Nuggets for the rest of my life.

Do you have any tattoos? Would you get one? Two? Why or why not?

No i do not have any tatoos . No i wouldnt consider getting one because they look nasty after you get more than 2. If i wouldnt get at least one tatoo, then i wouldnt get 2. I wouldnt get a tatoo because ive read that it affects your blood and you cant donate blood anymore. I would not like to have my blood poisened and be able to donate blood, if one of my family members needs it. The reason i dont have tatoos is because they don't look good when you have them all colorful.
If its just the simple green then that makes the person look dirty, like if they never have not tooken a shower.

What is normal? Give examples. What is abnormal?

Normal to me is dressing properly with good clothes, clothes that makes you look good and presentable. Having one or more tatoos is normal, even up to 4. But hyaving more than 5 then thats just abnormal. Piercings are nor mal to me too because we see it almost every day in the streets with either girls or guys. For guys having one piercing or even up to 3 is alright but getting more than 3 is wrong, for example filling your whole ear with piercings, then thats just abnormal too. Now guys with gauges in their ears that widen them is not normal because it widens the ear.
Abnormal to me is people who dress emo. People who like to use over excess of piercings, tatoos, make-up and dress with boots and all the rocker clothes. To me this is abnormal because they dress different from others which is okay, but they dress awkward. They look like their ear is hanging when they use the gauges, and when they get their whole arm tatood they look dirty.

Journal # 33

Do you think you are really different from other people?

Yes, i am different from other people because many people have different ways to dress and some have different ways on how they do their hair. I like being different because it look much better than copying someone's style. I like to have my own style and not the same as many of the people all over the city, town, or state have. Many people like to wear piercings, do their make up, but some dont like that and thats good.

What was the highlight of your weekend? What was the low point?

The highlight of my weekend has been the massive rave i went to on Friday. It was good because many people from all over Southern California went and were busting their butts off dancing to beats the dj's played. The most known dj's were playing the whole night making the people remember this night.
The low point of my weekend was that i had too much homework for my algebra class, and i had to do it to bring my grade up. I had like 9 worksheets and 4 pages of bookwork, and they were all due on Monday. So i had to stay up late on Saturday and do it, and on Sunday i had to stay up until 10 to try to finish the work my teacher had left me.
