i almost died!

haha jk. hmmm well lets see i lost power on friday at 6:15pm on friday. it was horrible no tv!!! later on about an hour the wind started and it felt a lil fresh but my house was full. my aunt and my two lil cousins, my uncle with my other cousin, my mom, sister and me. too many ppl in one household. we were outside playing for a while, and then we went to my aunts house who lives 5 houses away from mine and we cooked there cuz she has a gas stove. after dinner the wind started picking up so we decided it was time for bed. we all layed where we could and since it was really really really hot we left our front and back door open but with the gates closed. i couldnt fall asleep. i listened to a lil bit of music and eventually drifted off to my happy place. in the middle of the night i woke up to some banging noise outside. i checked around the house but i couldnt find anything, when i got the patio window i noticed that our lil roof was comming off and it was hitting against the wood. I walked to the front door gate and looked outside. The wind was horrible!! The trees looked like they were gonna tople over us, i thought hmm yea my house is gonna be destroyed, i might as well die sleeping. hahaha jk jk jk. I went back to my lil spot on the floor and turned on my ipod again and slept again. I kept waking up the whole night but i slept some. next day, we were all alive and my house hadn't fallen. YAY! so saturday was cold now, which was a relief cuz of the freakin heat! so that day we all ate sanwhiches cuz yea no stove. so saturday was boring and then sunday morning i had to work at 9am. My mom and me started driving our usual route when we notice that blalock was a river, it took me half an hour to get to my job when normally it only takes me 5 mins. and sooo the whole week i worked, i didnt spend much time at home. but the cool air at night was pretty good. and i bearly got power back on sunday. so yesterday was my lazy day. :P hmm yea thats my story. he he he.

My Interview

Me???
-hmmm my favorite food is the food my mom makes, and my grandmas tamales, very good during Christmas time. i like to go out and eat too but i dont do that often only once in a while. My favorite music is rock music, its pretty awesome, i like how all the instruments combine to make an awesome song, and the lyrics, well the lyrics are what make a song a good song too. yea that sounds a lil confusing. hmm lets see tv, oh gosh, tv is a must. I love my tv, hmmm favorite shows, well i have a few, House, 70s Show, South Park, Supernatural, and Smallville of course!!! hahaha.
- My favorite subject in school is history, im more of a social studies kinda girl, i like to learn about things that happened, when and how.
-And yea this is the subject i excel in, ohh and also excel in spanish.
-My strengths?? i dont think i have anymore other then history and spanish. Ohh wait yea, i love to read. I can finish a 700 page book in 2 days. :] I suck at writing essays, i take a long time just to come up with an ok introduction, and lets see, yea i hate math with passion because theres no good math teachers anywhere! ::::::cough El Kalil cough:::::
-Yea i study for tests sometimes, sometimes i dont because what i hear in class gets stuck in my head. When i do study though, i go over my notes and review what i learned, ohhh and read a lil over the book.
-What i would like to learn from this class is how to market a product, i wanna learn how the business world works so when i am older they dont try and fool me, also cuz i wanna major in business. ohh and also cuz i am in junior achievement and my goal for the company is to make it excel and beat the Chinese Community Center!!!!!
-If we have three people in the group then i think the work should be divided in three ways, but also so that the person has the work in which they excel in.
- I would make a great team member because i dont let one person do the whole job, i like to contribute with my part, but i also dont like to be taken advantage of. And because i wanna get a good grade in this class, i will not settle for anything less then a 85.

Wahoo's

fish taco..... yummy. hahaha.
hhhmmm nah i thought the marketing strategy that the brothers came up with is pretty cool. their idea made their business successfull and got to open more stores in Colorado, Texas, Cali, and Hawaii. its awesome how they just promoted themselves by helping surfing and rock climbing ppl, when they grew, so did their business. i thought it was pretty awesome.
