The Only Book I Really Liked!

This book by far is the only book I really got into besides the other books I read in the past. The story of how I found the book is pretty kool. It all started when a group that I participated in went to Atlanta to stay there for a week and on one of the days we were there, we went to a all African American book store called the Shrine of the Black Madonna. We had to buy a book there and I was looking but I couldn't find nothing that really caught my eye or my attention, but at the end of my journey of finding a book this cover caught me off gaurd because of the color and characterization on it. So I read the back of the back of the book which had the little summary on it and that just intrigued me even more, so I had to buy it. But heres the down fall I showed the book to my teacher and she told me to get a better book, so i did, but it was not good at all.So when i came back home I made it my mission to go find and buy this book. So I completed my mission and everything went as plan. I began to read and instantly I got caught up, I couldn't stop reading it. My parents were really proud of me because they really never seen me read a book on my free time. The story was amazing, it told a tale abouta dude named Wasuan Wells who has two loves--one is his beautiful girl of two years, Enychi Carter, and the other is his love for dice. Rollin' dice is an everyday hustle for Wasuan, and he's one of the best the hood has ever seen. No one can defeat him. That is, until he stumbles across a dude from the same hood named Tone who has just as much confidence, a little too much mouth, lots of cash to back it up, and a strong desire for Wasuan's girl. When Wasuan is challenged and the stakes grow high, he finds himself caught out in deeper waters than he can swim in, with Tone dangling three options: pay up, take his last breath, or sacrifice something much greater...his girl, Enychi. But when Enychi agrees to spend one night with Tone in order to save her man's life, she finds herself caught up in an unwilling love triangle like the streets have never known. Love, betrayal, lies, sex and money are just the beginning in this scandalous tale, where loyalties are put to the ultimate test. So if you want a good read, you should go to your local library or book store and go cop this book because it is really good!

Australia...The Place I Would Love To Visit

You guys don't know how much I would love to go to Australia. Well as I think about it I probably could have but the catch is I would miss soooooooo many days of school and the plane ride is a ridiculous 17 plus hour flight and I know I wouldn't be able to handle something that long. The lucky member of my family ( my Dad) just left the other to go on the journey of a lifetime. He's gonna arrive there this coming up wednsday or in Australia's thursday or vice versa, I don't know. But other than that he's going to be there until a couple days after the end of this school year whcih would be June 13th. I just can imagine all the things he gets to see, from the beautiful scenery to the exotic animal of the outback. I mean I think its a great experience to take part in. Australia has so many beaches, places and things to do, I wouldn't know what to do first, from the famous opera house to the zoos, I would lose my mind. I just can;t wait until my dad comes home to show me all the pictures he took.

My Plans For the Future

This right here above is my dream job. To be exact to designing shoes for a major shoe industry or make up my own so I can sell them myself would be my dream job. I really began looking into this job a few summers ago because I was always so interested in how the shoes were made but I also was intrigued to be the person to say that "I was the one who design the shoe you're wearing". I love tennis shoes. Nothing makes me happier than to buy to a brand new pair of kicks and to be the first and only to wear them. Thats why i believe this job is truly meant for me. But now as I start to think about it more, I really want to become my own label, so I can sell not just shoes, but clothes and shades too. The real hard partabout this is that I have to find a college that has the majors that I need to make my dream job come true. I narrowed it down to down to two colleges ( mainly one) which are the Institue of Art in Chicago and The University of Northern Iowa ( which I most likely will go to). I'm going to try to major in three different majors which are business and marketing, fine arts, and design. But lets just see where my future leads me!!!

The A.C.T.

Maaaaaannnnn you don't know how nervous I am to take the A.C.T. this coming up saturday. This is how I see the test. I see it as a major thing that can affect my furture in a positive way but if I slack off it could turn into something negative. The purpose of this test is it can get me scholarships into college or even mabe some financial help if I do well on the test. The perfect score on this test is 36. I've been talking to alot of people who have taken the test and they tell not to stress, but i can't help it. They also tell me to use the book that you can order to help you study for it. Most of the people got good scores like 25- 31, so it's giving me confidence and the courage to do my best on the test. My goal for the test is to aim high like lets say 30 and mabe get a little lower than what I aimed for.This hopefully will help me stay positive. so wish me good luck cause I'm going to need it.

My Thoughts on Blogging

The way I feel about blogging is an emotion that I would describe as a very cool sensation that I get feel each time I blog. I love that I get to express my feelings towards certain subjects that I really care about. Even though I do think its kinda stupid at some points, its a way that people can get to know me on a different level. I mean the first time I found out that we were going to blog in class, threw me off a little because I didn't understand what blogging had to do with perspectives, but then I began thinking about it more and I came to realize that it has to do with media and the world around us. Blogging is just a way to express your opinion to the public and a way to show the important things that happens around us. So now and then I do look forward to blogging, and then i get to thinking that I should've started blogging a long time ago.

The New Trends

Shutter shades are whats happening this year. You probably first saw them in Kanye West video "Stronger" and if haven't seen that video you probably need to go on youtube and watch it right now because you are way behind. But anyway these frames come in a rainbow of colors, they have ones that even glow in the dark, ones that sport the american flag, or even ones that shows your political views either being a democrate or a republican. The price range is $3.50 to $12.00 depending on style of glasses you get. You can find them any where from Spencers gift shop to even Hot Topic, it just varies to what stores you shop at.



The Sci Fi sunglasses are about to hit the racks. The new frames are basically a new modernization on the Star Trek glasses, but they also mimic the censor bar motif.They have been worn by celebs such as Ciara and Pharrell from the Neptunes. The shades come in come in black, brown, transparent, or mirrored silver. The glasses are made from a solid piece of polycarbonated(whatever that is).The price of these shades are 380 Eurs which equal to $590 U.S. dollars. But good luck at finding them because they were released in limited quantities, go figure.
