For those of you who will continue here at BC I will be seeing you again. Goodbye to all and have an unforgettable summer =)

Easter Weekend

Easter weekend is very important for many people throughout the world. Relgious people take it very seriously and follow their beliefs and traditions such as not eating meat on Good Friday. Easter Sunday is usually spent with family and close friends. I think occasions such as Easter Sunday bring families together because unfortunately many people only see their families on holidays or special events. Therefore Easter unites everyone and brings joy all around.

My new job

It has already been two weeks since I started my new job. I am now working at Mr.Tux, its a store that rents and sells tuxedos and suits. It seems like I came at the right time because they are running on a very busy schedule with prom coming up. April and May are the busiest months and it can get pretty crazy in there with people coming in and out picking out their tux. I am still in the process of learning how to do everything but for the most part I like working there. Making money is always a good thing but it is important that you like your job. Hopefully ill learn everything quickly and things will run smoothly.

Semester almost over =)

Finally the semester is almost coming to an end!! Although it sounds great this is the time when students are stressed out the most. Students have to focus on final exams, research papers, and classwork. Plus many students are lazy in the beginning of the semester and plan to leave all the hard work and dedication towards the end. Final exams are one of the most important grades of the course so students have to do so much studying. In addition, many classes require research papers at the end of the course which can be like 8 pages long!! Overall students worry the most when the semester is ending, it can be very nerve-wracking. Good luck to you all and careful not to get too stressed out.

Author Review

One of the authors that I liked the most during the presentations was Edgar Allan Poe. Since we had already read some of his short stories in class, I was interested in learning about this author. Most of his works involve suspense, horror, and science fiction. His style of writing is very unique which is seen in the "Tell-Tale Heart," and "The Cask of Amontillado." He always seems to leave his audience with the curiosity of what will happen next. I would consider his works to be a thriller, for those who enjoy suspense and a little horror I suggest you read his stories.

A Nice Little Weekend

This past weekend was very nice and relaxed. It started off on Friday when it was my mom's birthday. My family and I celebrated at Brimstone's, a restaurant at Pembroke Gardens. The food there is so delicious and I had the miso salmon..... and well when something is that good, unfortunately it costs more than the average meal, but it was worth it. The next day I went to the Hard Rock Casino which I enjoyed very much. It was so crowded that day that there came certain areas where people would just bump into your shoulder. I also noticed the large amount of people over the age of 60.... I guess the older crowd can have fun too and still have a taste of the night life. Nowadays grandparents don't stay home anymore like they used to, now they want to go out and party... but hey I dont blame them when I get old im not going to be stuck at home either, im going out to enjoy myself. On Sunday, my boyfriend and I decided to have an adventure at the park. We first went on a boat ride where we just relaxed in the middle of the lake and soaked up some sun... I had not gone on a boat ride in years. Then we had a barbeque which was amazingly good, I personally don't know how to cook or anything like that but it's great to have a boyfriend who does hehehe and he cooks so well =) Overall this weekend was very good, it's the kind of weekend that makes you sad to know the next day is already Monday. Hopefully the next few weekends will be just as good =)

It's all about choices

There comes a time in life when people are faced with situations that force them to make a decision. It all begins when you are a young adult, you have to make certain choices that will affect your present life and your future. For example, the kind of person you strive to be, that is your choice, you choose who you are. When making choices you also have to consider your morals and integrity because if you know that what you are doing is wrong and it can hurt someone else, then why do it? Always remember that some choices can be irreversible, so be careful with the decisions you make because if you do something that you regret later on, by the time you figure out that it was the wrong thing to do, it can already be too late.
