Blogs

 

           Blogs are ok I guess if you're really into them. Personally I was never into blogs especially writing my own. I'm not saying I hate them, I just don't love them. I've learned that blogs can be humorous and informal I found some that I laughed and learned from, but I don't get on my computer enough to be into blogs. I tried to take it as serious as possible, I tend to take pride in my work but I know this isn't my best field so I never expected perfection. I think if there were more interaction the blogging would me vaulable and fun, everybody likes feedback. I think my English Professor Chris should make everyone respond to the comments that are made it woud make it more interesting and people would view more and appealing for others to participate.

 

 



Might be broke Now

 

 

 

 

I don't know what to blog about so I figure to share a poem/ryhme I wrote:

 

 

I  Might Be Broke Now/But Watch When My Money Up

 

 

See I want Ice like a Popsicle,

And being from where I'm from, I have been though some obstacles

But that isn't stopping me, Losing isn't optional

So if you get in my way, you'll get split like an optimal(blunt)

See getting money is what I GOT to do

By any means necessary, even if I and have to pop the tool(gun)

I want asparagus and lobster food

And right now I'm eating Top Ramen, so I got a lot to do

I'm tryna wipe my ass with my cash;)

Have it overflowing like when you leave a plug in the bath

You could laugh, I love hate

And if you ain't talking bout money we can't conversate

I don't have time for games, I have a strong team

If plotting on getting us, well then your think about the wrong thing

Im tryna get my money up, You could do that funny stuff

Ima keep eating until my tummy stuffed.

 



Entry 5 Beef w/ Beef

My Beef with Beef

 

 

        Yes, I have a beef with beef!! You should too, I never knew when I made ground beef tacos I was eaing pink slime. I recently read an article "Pink  Slime" and I instantly was appalled and wanted to take a crap. If you didn't know the U.S.D.A approves gound beef to be proccessed using the leftovers of cows, grinding it together with ammonia and serving to the people. What was even more shocking, was that the elementary schools were excepting this proccessed meat for the kids lunch. Most schools accept this because it's less expensive, unfortunately  it's $0.03 cheaper. This should be known to everyone but the U.S.D.A states that using ammonia is a proccess and not an ingredient. Some people do enjoy ground beef though, I believe people should be aware of how it's being made. Jamie Oliver is some one who lets people know about pink slime, you could find him on You Tube. But he goes around to communities showing exactly how pink slime is made and I think that's a great idea because if you were to see the way ground beef is created, you'd second guess your next sloppy joe. I don't understand how this information is so underated, make sure you are aware of what you consume just because it looks and tastes good dosen't mean it's healthy.

Music

     MUSIC

       

             I love music,eveywhere you go there's some kind of music I believe it makes the world go round. So many different genre's, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Country,and R&B you can't name them all but it's everywhere. I've noticed it's almost impossible to escape, from cars,ipods, even elevators there's music. On tv, comericals are filled with sounds of music I was thinking to myself why is it so popular and I believe that it's therapeutic. We as humans are so emotional and sometimes we don't know how to cope. Music has the power to change moods. There's music for every type of feeling we have, from being sad, mad , or exicted there is a song that can enhance that feeling, or calm it down. If ever I'm getting ready to go out to the club, I'll play some club music with lots of bass and loud sounds to get me hype and ready to dance. If I'm cleaning I'll listen to smoothe music either Jazz or R&B, it's calming and I can concentrate on what needs to be organized. What kind of music do you like and how does it impact you?


This is a song I'd play before going to the club, makes me want to dance;)

What Are We Coming To?

 

 

 

WAKE UP WORLD!!

 

     Watching the movie Food Inc. I could only think, what is the world becoming? Now every time I get ready to eat I think where did this chicken come from? Is it really clean or was it cloned? The way they treated the animals were ridiculous. I believe animals have souls to and they were treated as if it was routine to chop off their heads. The crazy thing about it, is that I'm not too surprised with how they were being treated. Africans were once used as such, it seems that now cows and chickens has become our modern day slaves. The farmers knew what they were doing was wrong, but they don't have enough money to defend themselves. Im not surprised by that either, who ever has the most money usually runs the show. Which gives me a bad feeling about the society we live in, not much of an democracy. Engineering and food don't go togther, I understand we are growing in technology and some of the equipment are useful and can make a faster process. But things can definately be more sanitary and less chemicals used on the food we eat. I was appalled to find out that a child died from a fast food burger. I eat those almost evey other day so to think, I could've been dead is ridiculous! We should be aware as Americans of what is being done to the food we consume. Im sure if most people knew of all the things going on with our food there would be longer lives lived. I think this is exactly how the government wants it, for us not to be aware and they distract us with all this new technology we don't notice what's really killing us.

Entry #3

   Woah I so I just watched this clip from this childrens movie "Wall-e", and I hope this is not what our world is coming to. In this clip it show adults riding around in a portiable hovering machine, with screens in front with them either talking to another person or on the internet. The kids were all in one room on the same hovering machine in what looked like a 2050 class room with a big wide screen looking at their teacher. All of the human characters in this scene were also all obese. Even though this is a movie it shows what this world could come to if we don't pay attention to our surroundings. Technology is clearly taking over and is becoming a second nature and no one is really paying attention that its becoming reliable and were not even thinking about our health as humans. If we all become lazy and dependable on this technology, majority of us will be obese and that's not healthy and can lead to a lot of early deaths. We need to be more aware of how much technology is being used and spend more time being physically active.

 

 

IF WE GET LAZY AND DEPEND ON TECHNOLOGY

IT CAN GET ALL BAD BETTER GET PHYSICAL OR.....

How would you go

How Do You Wanna Go?

 

 



          Death is common and can be very unexpected. You have to cherish every moment you have on this earth we only live once. Friends and family you can't take for granted you have to live everyday like it's your last because the only we're promised is death. My grandfather was the first family member that I actually knew who passed. He was a cool grandpa, always came around fit to or my birthday and was very encouraging about owning my own business. We had a couple moments before he passed, and when he died I really didn't take heart. I think it was because he wasn't around enough to have a impact when he died I was hurt but not really. Febuary 8, 2013 my family and I had to bury my Aunt Marie. It was crazy, I never been in my feelings before like that I didn't believe she was gone. But I knew my aunt, she was deaf but she never considered that a disability. Every time I would see her, she or would be smiling her face lit up the room like some one just lit fire crackers. If someone was sad she would poke or tickle them to get a smile or laugh she was always positive and loved being around family. It finally hit me Friday, as she was being lifted down 6 feet I looked around and smiled. I seen all the people she had impacted and remembered all the good memories she gave and thought to myself, she left earth on a good note. While on earth she was a giving and loving person, and even though she was deaf she didn't use that as an excuse and she always stayed positive. That's how she left, she was remember for all of the good and how uplifting she was. Now I think about how am I living my life, when I die I want my friends and family to remember for the good I did on earth. So I ask my fellow friends now as well, how do you wanna go??
