Blogging Reflection

At first I wasn’t very exited when I found out that we had to blog but once we started most of the subjects were interesting to I enjoyed giving my thoughts about the subject we had that week. I haven’t decided whether to continue blogging or not because we won’t have an assignment to write about I wouldn’t know what to write about myself.  Some final thought to my classmates is that I enjoyed reading their thoughts about every subject every week of this class.

Chivas VS. Morelia
A gret time I had was this past summer when my brother, a friend of ours and I all went to mexico. We went for two weeks but my favorite day over the trip was when we went to see a soccer game between chivas and morelia in the morelos stadium. It was me my brother, our friend that went with us lencho, my cousin chino, a priest, and two other friends of ours el gordo and edgar. Besides from it being a great game to watch what made he day so great was that towards the end of the game we all began to scream for chivas except for the priest and el gordo. We would scream bad word after bad word and pay no attention to the priest that was with us. We were screamin so loud that people  began to scream with us. We made such big of a scandel that cameras in the stadium began to tape us. After the game was over we stayed at the stadium for over 20 minutes just chanting for our team and people would take pictures with us. When we got back home the following day we asked if people saw us on tv and most of our relatives that saw the game on tv said they did see u.

As a big NBA fan its upsetting to see the NBA lock out be going on as long as it has. Pre season games, mini camps, and even regular season games have been cancelled. The owners have locked out the players is because they have not agreed on a deal in order so the season can start. Some reasons why the owners have locked out the players I because they have not agreed on a good deal for both that includes how much money the players get, contract years and either a soft salary cap or a hard salary cap. A soft salary cap benefits the owners financially because it limits them on how much the can spend on players. A hard salary cap would benefit the players because it would allow them to get as much money as they can. The players want 53 percent of the money while the owners would like a 50 50 split and they have not been able to come up with an agreement so far. Since their hasn’t been NBA games players like Kobe Bryant have considered playing over seas. Their has been many talks among players and owners, it seems more likely like their will either be a shorten NBA season or no season at all.

Blog Entry Week 12

This book gives a lot of valuable information about the fast food world. One of the things that really stuck out to me was the whole meat thing. The cattle are treated very poorly in the slaughter houses. The working conditions for the workers are very dangerous and unsanitary because of this the meat gets tainted.  I don’t know if I will make any changes in my life because of this but I will think it twice every time I go and eat fast food. Some of the issues it has made me think of is the marketing to children and the slaughter house issues.

The truth from last weeks post was that I had a dog that lived up to be 17 years old in human years………………………………………

This is my first semester as a college student. The work load from high school to college is very different. In college the work is much larger. At first I found it difficult to balance between all the classes I was taking but as time passed by and the semester kept going I got better in balancing my classes. I am taking 4 classes this semester, math 11, English 101, US History and health. The class I found the most difficult was English because of having to do both in class work as well as online work. One thing I dislike about my math class is that we get homework mostly everyday and it’s not always collected. The thing that keeps me motivate is to have a good future for me and my family. A bright future for me would be a good job and to be close to all my friends and family.

LeBron James decision to join the Miami Heat in the 2011 offseason change the way I look at him as a competitor and how big his ego is. What made me change my opinion of him is the way he handled it and that he was going to join Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade, the three of them are the top players in the Eastern Conference. He made a big ESPN special called “The Decision”. The show took and hour, it was mainly to find out where he was going to play for the next season. I like many other basketball fans tuned in to see where he was going to play. He told the world where he was to play in the first ten minutes of the special and the rest of the show just seemed like a waist of time. Once he joined the Heat the expectations for the team were extremely high, there were talks of them beating the Chicago Bulls record of 72 wins in one regular season. The three of them joined one team with on thing in mind and that was to win a championship. The three of them joining brought a huge celebration to the city of Miami and their fans, in front of their fans they came out in their uniforms dancing and jumping like they have already won a championship when in reality the haven’t even played one team together . What made me question him as a competitor was that he could have won a championship with the team he had and it seemed to me like he took the easy way out

Family is a great support system to have. With the support of your family there is no limit to what you can accomplish. My family supports me in everything I do whether its school, work, or other activities. Some ways family shows support is by is by always being their for you in your best times and your worst times. A good support system starts with how you are raised, I was raised by my mom and dad, and both were born in Mexico. My dad the oldest among his six brothers and sisters came to Oxnard at the age of twelve. He later graduated from Channel Islands High School and immediately started working in an aluminum company in Camarillo and has held that job for over twenty years. My mom came to the US at the age of seventeen and has been working in a lemon company for over seven years. Both of my parents work mostly all day for about five sometimes six times a week and come home tired and still have energy to come help and feed my siblings and I; for that I am grateful. I try to help my parents as much as I can whether it’s giving them money or helping them with the household chores. My parents gave me good morals and taught me to work hard in order to be successful. They also taught me to be respectful to others and treat others the way I like to be treated. My parents taught me these morals by being role models for me. They also taught me that getting together with all of your family is very important so you don’t loose that closeness with each other. Family is very important to me because they are always their for me when I need them. My family is my support system and its very comforting to always have them their through their through my highs in life and the low times in my life. My parents have taught me that hard working, dedication, and good morals is important to have in order to be successful. They are hard working and dedicated to me because both of them have had their jobs for a long time.
