Three People

My mom is very important to me.  She is the type of lady this is always looking to find ways to help others.  I rarely see her sitting down just relaxing.  If she’s not at work, she cleaning, if she’s not cleaning, if she’s cooking.  She is always trying to make life better for me and my family.  I look up to her and hope one day I can be as good of a mother as she is.  When you look at her you see a kind, natural woman.  She is naturally beautiful.  I have never seen her wear eyeliner of mascara in my entire life.  And she doesn’t need it.  If everyone was like my mom, the world would be a better place.  I wish more people could be selfless.

Addison :) Addison is someone that I love to write about.  He is the one person that is always in the back of my mind no matter what I am doing.  He is the love of my life.  I have always been into athletic guys.  He plays water polo and surfs all the time.  That’s one of the main reasons he moved to Hawaii... But the distance doesn’t bother me.  I love knowing that I still have a connection with him.  It is very strong.  It makes me feel like I have a reason to be living.  When I wake up in the morning I want to better myself.  Because he makes me feel like this, he is very important to me.  He will be in my life for the rest of my life hopefully.  

Nicole is one of my best friends.  I have known Nicole for about 15 years.  We have been neighbors for all my life.  I grew up going to school with her.  I know we shouldn’t get into races, but obviously I’m.  She is mexican.  I love it.  I feel like we are opposites and attract each other.  She is the only friend that I have that I can say i have never gotten into a fight with.  We have never argued.  She is the best friend that I could ever ask for.  Our friendship is something that I cherish.  We will always be close and after we are both done with college, hopefully we will be living close to each other.  

Topper's. Nom nom nom.

     I have been going to Toppers ever since I was a little kid.  When I was younger, I enjoyed the pizza there.  There is something very unique about it.  The crust on the pizza is perfect.  The end of the crust is crunchy and flavorful.  Also I think that the pizza sauce is amazing.  I’m not a big fan of sauce on other pizza’s because I don’t really like tomatoes, but I think that the sauce at Topper’s is sweet in a way and has a little zap.  Now that I’m older, my favorite thing to get at Topper’s is salad.  The salad bar at Topper’s is AMAZING!  They have all different kinds of topping and dressings.  When I get a salad I always get the darker green lettuce.  This is because it is greener and for some reason I think that it is better for you, but I don’t really know if that is true.  After I fill up half of my bowl with lettuce, I put a good amount of kidney beans, hard boiled eggs, and cheese.  Then I put the croutons on, followed by ranch.  Finally, I go back to the lettuce and much more on top.  I find it easier to eat the salad that way so the toppings can be in the middle.  Although this salad only has a couple toppings, it is extremely flavorful.  

     I recommend Topper’s to everyone.  I have never had a problem with any of my food there.  I go there with my family, my friends, and my teammates.  The environment there is nice.  There are tons of TV’s everywhere with all the games on.  When I go there, I always end up staying there for an hour or two.  It is a nice place to relax, catch up with family and friends, and enjoy a great meal all at the same time.

I forgot to reveal my truth!

I have been skydiving!!!

Freshman Year

This is my first semester as a college student.  At first everything seemed pretty easy.  I thought that only having class a couple times a week was chill.  I thought that not having a lot of homework was nice.  But then i had my first math test.  I didn’t do too great.  I did better thanmost of my peers, but that didn’t really mean much considering the grade I got.   What I have learned is that I need to study and teach myself everything from chapters because the teachers can’t teach us everything in class.  

I really like this English class.  Even though this teacher said that this kind of class, half online half in class, was the hardest, I find it very convenient.  I think it is nice being in class for a short amount of time and learning the little things that will help us write better.  All of the online stuff we can do on our own time which is nice.  No ones likes homework, but I would rather have all of these little assignments that add up, than having two midterms that determine our entire grade! 

Being successful is what motivates me.  I want to be the best.  I want to be better than everyone else.  This competitiveness I have motivates me in everything in life.  Just like I want to win soccer games, I want to beat everyone in class.  Even though I can’t beat everyone in everything, the drive to be the best keeps me going.  I try to do my best and so far things have worked out for me.  I do not look forward to taking lots of classes and being busy with work, but I know that if I want a better life for myself, then that is what I need to do.
