So far in the semester..



The semester has been going faster than I expected, it definitely was time consuming!  So far this semester for the four classes that I am taking is a lot of work and it ranges.  Some I believed was way too much work, considering there are other classes that I am taking.  Then some that was just the right amount of assignments, I believe that this semester has been the hardest for me so far!  One of the challenges I am facing is making it to class since I am often sick, but lucky most of my classes are online.  It does make it so much easier not to fail a class, and get the assignments complete without missing too much.  Something that is really bugging me about this semester is that I cannot make it to class as much as I want too, and not interacting with people as much also.  What I like about this semester is that I am not failing any classes and I also did not drop any classes.  I did not waste any time this semester and it makes me happy because I am one step closer to my goal.  I believe the ultimate pay- off for this semester is finally finishing up classes that are needed to become a Hygienist.  So I guess so far it has been a pretty good semester for me.  I did not get to interact as much, but I am finishing classes and knocking it off my list.  What keeps me going is that I know time waits for no one and also I am not getting any younger so I need to pass my classes and not drop any so that time is not wasted!  The number one thing that keeps me motivated is my loved ones and making them proud of their girl.

Is it worth watching?



            What is reality television nowadays?  People all over the world seem to enjoy it and so do I.  It is something I would watch every now and then because it is exciting and it has a lot of drama.  Drama is something I like to watch when I am bored, and also bored with my life.  I like to watch how other people embarrass themselves on live television and they honestly do not even care about it.  I would have to give them two thumbs up for being for brave, even though they do get paid for it.  Honestly, sometimes I do think reality television is benefiting our society.  It just depends on the kind of show, like Jon&Kate Plus 8 and shows about animals.  Some shows are actually great, because they help the community, and some even make donations.  There are reality television shows like “Deadliest Catch” and “Cajun Shrimp” that shows their viewers an idea of what their job is like, and how hard it is just to catch some of the simplest dishes on our tables.  So not all reality television are harming our society as some people would have to disagree with.
            Reality television is definitely a guilty pleasure for me, it is something I enjoy watching whether it is about someone’s life or about nature/animals.  I watch a lot of television hence, reality television does give me more choices to watch.  When I get tired of one show, I can always watch another and another, and so on.  The options are endless when it comes to reality television.  There are shows about famous people, people who are looking for love, how people catch animals, how people live day to day with their disabilities, how people go through life threatening situations etc.  For some people reality television is bad, but there’s more to it than shows like “The Jersey Shore”.  Therefore, reality television is definitely something I would miss if it was taken away from me.  Would you say the same?
The only thing I do not like about reality television is that some people are getting paid for just being unwise. I do sometimes think reality television is harming our society because they get caught on camera that thoughtless things some Americans do.  Creating drama with their family, their love lives are on blast, and their career.  These people sometimes have no privacy, as what I would think.  They have so shame; their ugliest and best times are caught for the entire world to see.  Just only for the shows that are popular like “the Jersey Shore” and “The Kardashians”.  I don’t dislike shows like these because it is interesting to watch how other people lives their lives and I enjoy the drama.  Sometimes I can compare it with my everyday life or how sometimes I wish my life can be more fun and careless as theirs.

People change over Time...



Sometimes change is good and other times, it is not.  But who are we to judge others behaviors?  Since freshmen year in high school, I met a girl who have become my best friend over the years, and I always thought of her as a sister.  She was generous, polite, entertaining, energetic, and cool.  She would always be the person I would tell my deepest darkest secrets too.  The one who always had my back for anything, we had fought and got angry with each other for a long time.  As times past I began to become blind and not see how she have changed.  She used to be “the one” I can always count on, and the one I can trust most.  She have lost my trust, she did the most stupid thing I have even see her done.  This has happened gradually over time and I was too blind to even notice it.  My other friends had disliked her and even called her names but I have had her back and said that what was going on was not true.  That if they did not see it with their own eyes, then they should not spread rumors.  I told them that they should not say stuff like that because they would not like it if someone else was saying the same about them.  My friendship with her has changed and affected those around me because we were once all mutual friends, now we are two different groups of friends.  She has a separate group of friends and I continue to hang out with the friends who dislike her.  Sometimes I wish we can all just get along, and be as one.  We are still friends today because we put our differences aside and talk about it.
