My Favorite Holiday

My favorite holiday is Christmas, because it is the time where it has the most breaks from school. Also, there is another reason behind the fact that Christmas break is the day where my birthday is taken place on. As I could get presents from Christmas, I would also receive my birthday present. Even though my parents and family cook seaweed soup instead of giving me presents, I am grateful for the life they have given me, with the warm and caring ways throughout my years with them. Friends are another reason why my favorite holiday is on Christmas. They give me presents as it is my birthday, but one of the bad things is that I cannot have my birthday celebration at school. Thinking back through all the years; however, I think that it is essential to not have my birthday at school, for the fact that people who I rarely know will be like scavengers searching for food throughout the classroom and that I will have to spend more money just to feed them. I know that I can be cruel in thinking this way, but if you think of it in my type of situation where I stand, you will understand that it is the best choice to make.

It is more of a reluctant and relieved feeling that would set my mind at ease to only have my best friends come over to the beach and celebrate my birthday with barbeque and have a great time swimming throughout the day. Although it would have been a great feel to it if I was in the States, where snow would be falling down as we play snowball fights.

My Autobiography

On the spring of 2005, I set my thoughts back to the unforgettable event that me and my friends have done. That year was one of my middle school lives as a seventh grader, which I would have considered it to be the craziest year of my life. Sarcastically speaking, the only reason that I could think up of is that I was infested with the crazy hormones running through my body as well as being energetic from swimming.

My most memorable event all started when October 31 of Halloween approached. In school, we had set up a dance party in the gym, where it was a perfect place for the dance because of how big it was and the how dark it got when the lights were off.

As the dance started, there were approximately over one hundred students attending to it. During that time, I had a girlfriend and was forced to dance; however, I was not only persuaded by her, but from other girls that I have known for a short time. Because of the Halloween dance, I had been jeopardizing my relationship. While I danced with my girlfriend, this girl that I knew was eyeing me from across the dance floor and when my girlfriend said that she was tired and was going to take some rest in the benches, I was pulled away by my girlfriend’s friends. After some time of dancing with my girlfriend’s friends, I told them that I was going to go and drink; however, as I was walking across the dance floor, the girl that I knew came out of nowhere and pulled me in through the crowd of students and started dancing with me. She leaned close to me and dirty danced as I watched in shock, she persuaded me to dance with her and made sure that we would never get caught because of the crowded area.

My Favorite Genre of song

Throughout my life, there have been many songs that I have loved because of the mood and melody. There would be some genres of songs that I would not like just because of the mood I am set upon. For example, whenever I am down and sad, I usually listen to the genre "ballad," for it calms me down and makes me more relaxed. As time changes, there would be other genres of songs that you would like; however, it will not affect the relationship of your favorite genre.

In my opinion, it is best to be more open to what you listen to and look at it on the positive side. Whenever I get in the mood of doing something stupid or play a game with my friends, I would listen to rock, punk, or pop music because it gets me in the motive of destroying my enemies.

Many categories of music that I listen to all depends in the moment of how I listen to it and sometimes it comes to the point in which you can't really decide on what to listen, so all you can do is pick a random file of music and listen to it.

My Favorite Game

The game that I enjoyed the most was World of Warcraft. This Mmo rpg game is considered the best game to have been played by many other friends of mine. The game consists of people from across the world to be able to meet up in this online game with their own desirable character with different hair-do and facial expressions. As people meet and quest together, they get to learn more about each other and have a fun time raiding dungeons and killing their enemies from the other fractions. As I have mentioned, there are two fractions in this game "the Horde" and "the Alliance." The horde is made up of characters as undead, blood elves, orc, troll, and taurens. The alliance is made up of humans, night elves, dreinai, dwarves, and gnomes.

In order to make the game fair for low level players, blizzard corporation made high level players not able to attack the lowbies as they quest in their areas; however, as they get as high as level 40, they will automatically be considered as an equal enemy to the other fraction. Sometimes you will encounter a jerk that does not like to be respectful and will always be killing you. When this would happen, I will be angry and call my friend who is of much higher level and we will be hunting "camping" him down, until he logs off.

I like this game very much because I am able to meet up with my friends, play together, and have fun. When you are playing, you can feel the adrenaline while you battle others and as you achieve a part of your goal and obtain many friends through the game.

If I could bring someone back to life, who would it be?

If I could bring one person back to life, it would be Steve Irwin. Ever since I was small, I remember that I used to love watching his show on animal planet. All the time he would have that broad Australian accent that I would try and mock him. It never ceased to stop and fascinate me with wonders of how he could wrestle a crocodile with such little protection. As I watch him wrestle in TV, I would follow him and wrestle my pillow making sound effects that was clearly unnecessary otherwise. He is a true hero to everyone who loves the natural habitat and wildlife. As he is being filmed, he makes an outstanding performance in the timing of the event and plays along with his interesting skills of cautiously sneaking up to the crocodile and energetically launching himself wrestling the crock with his might.

Steve Irwin owns a zoo that he named “Australia Zoo” in 1992 in which it was the same year where he appeared in a one- off reptile and wildlife special for television. He met his wife, Terri Raines at a park, while performing a demonstration. Now Terri Raines is considered to be in parts of the show that Steve performs. Under Irwin’s leadership, the operations improved to create a zoo, the television series, and the International Crocodile Rescue.

In the year of 2006, he died from being struck by a stingray’s barb while filming in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. In his honor, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society ship was named after Steve as “MV Steve Irwin.” In 2006, Irwin provided his voice for the 2006 animated film Happy Feet, as an elephant seal named Trev. This film was dedicated to Irwin, as he died during post- production.

In memory of him, I will remember of him as my favorite crocodile hunter that gave many enjoyments to kids throughout the world, being a hero and admiration of others that would soon realize the reason why he loved his job with passion.

My Favorite Poem

When you feel sad and betrayed
Who can you count on every single day?
When you feel lost and alone
Who will be there for you in every way?
When you've made mistakes and bad decisions
Who can you count on to tell you you're wrong?
When you feel you can't go on
Who will be there with a feel-better song?
Look into your heart and you will find
That person you can trust is not far away.
Look deep into yourself, don't give up,
For if you do, it's yourself you'll betray.
When you're looking for answers
To all your questions and dreams,
There is one person you can count on,
It's impossible, I know, it seems.
But take a few moments to look deeper inside.
Look into your heart and there you will see.
You'll be surprised when you find out
That you've been looking at ME.
By: Trudy Starling

The reason why I have chosen this poem is because it touches the inner most feelings of my heart. One thing that is needed to everyone is one friend and without a friend to be there for you, it becomes hard to bear the fact that you think as if you are alone. There is always one person who is there and will be there through the hardest times in your life. He/she will help you and guide you through a place that you will appreciate later on in life and stop and think to yourself and laugh about them.
Friends are there for you and you must appreciate the fact that they are there for you. It is not always fun and laughter that comes with friendship, but also sorrow and tears that would often get you guys even closer. Never leave a friend feeling left behind, for it will also become known to yourself that you have been torn apart by little reasons in a short matter of time. Even after you have gone through all those times of hardship in order to get so far, it is a simple mistake that leads and builds up onto a bigger mistake if you do not forgive and be forgiven.

My Favorite Book

My favorite book was titled “The five people you meet in Heaven”. At first when I had read the cover of the book, I was thinking of how it would not have been much of a book to read at all; however, the interesting part about this book is that it starts out as a day where everything seems to be going as the usual. Eddy “the maintenance” is now 80 years old and has been the owner of the amusement park ever since he was around his thirties. As he was remembering his past experiences while relaxing, his eyes suddenly jerks open from the sound of a lady screaming. One of the cables from the Ferris wheel have been broken and now it was a race against time that would determine the fate of the people in the Ferris wheel. Although they were managed to help all the people inside it, as the cable became loose and snapped, there was a little kid that was helplessly frozen in place from fear and was just below the Ferris wheel when Eddy raced into action, moving as fast as he could and in desperate situation he leaped to push the girl so that at least she would be saved instead of him.
The experience that he endures during his time in “heaven” is the part where all of the important events occurred in order for him to understand many of his past mistakes and regrets to forgive the burden that is within his heart.
