(CE) EARTHQUAKE/2012

   Recently since last month there has been at least like five earthquake that were certainly unexpected. There are so many people here in California that are afraid of earthquakes and don’t get me wrong because I don’t like earthquake, they do scare me sometimes when it hits. When the first 4.1 earthquake hit on Thursday during my 5th period choir class I did get scared since all of us in my choir class were just sitting down going over some music notes. What was scary about it was that when it hit it hit pretty strong even though it was a long one but sure was a strong one. The worst thing was that it was during school and I have never experienced an earthquake during school, I’ve either been home or at ma aunts house where I felt them but NEVER during school. To be honest I would rather be home then be at school during an earthquake.

Then later on that day around 7-8pm or so another earthquake hit but the good thing was that I was home in bed. Haha! I was watching television while doing homework as well. Now the good thing you could say that it happened while I was home and it wasn’t as strong as the one that had hit earlier. But the thing was that the second earthquake might have not been as strong as the first one but it sure did last a little longer then the first one. I heard that the longer the earthquakes last the worse it can get. Which I’m just happy that nothing serious happened and no one got hurt.

But what sucks is that we never know when the next one will hit. They hit unexpectedly, so really what we all need to do is seek God and pray for protection each and everyday and also we all need to Thank Him for His Great Mercy and for each day that we wake up in the morning to be Thankful for the other day life He has given us.

Everyone is scared about the huge earthquake that they say will hit but not sure when or about the world coming to an end. I do believe the world will come to an end but absolutely one one in this world knows when that’ going to happen. The Bible says that not even God’s Angels know when but only God himself. People talk about 2012 and that the world is ending that year but like I said “absolutely no one know but God himself.” The Bible says that he will many horrible thing will happen when its getting toward the day of his come which as we can all see there are many horrible things are happening already in this world be from what I believe and is in the book of Revelations a lot more bad things are going to happen because it is getting close to the day that God will come for his people. God will come in a blink of a eye. All we can do is seek God and give our life to him and believe and have Faith in him. We shall not fear in He who is within us.

-God Bless You All!

(FREE) It's Our SENIOR YEAR but We Don't Seem Very United :/

So since the beginning of my SENIOR I have not attend one single football game. Crazy as that’s sounds. I didn’t even go to the homecoming game nor am I going to the last home game tonight. I don’t know why but I just have not really been excited to attend one. I know I sound like a party poop-er,lame or whatever and I also do realize that it’s my SENIOR YEAR and I should at least try to attend to everything that I possibly can but I’m really just not so much into it for some reason this year. But one of the good things is that I at least went to some games my freshmen and sophomore years and I honestly think those were the best two years of mi high school years. I had lots of fun with all my close friends and is was always very exciting to go to them. For some reason I ‘m not really excited to go to the footballs games as much anymore is because they don’t seem really fun to me anymore. Many thing has changed.

The reason I think that is because, really, everyone seemed a lot more united freshmen and sophomore year and then once our junior year began many of that changed. Why is that? I honestly don’t know, I always ask myself ask myself that question. I really dislike how all of that has changed, that many people from our class slowly drifted away. Shouldn’t our Senior year be the best year and for all of us to be “UNITED” as if we were a great big family. I’m sure there are many other people that is understanding what I am talking about and maybe agrees with this as well since what I am talking about does feel that way. Or could it just be me? :(

(RE) The Older We Get, The Faster Time Goes

"I feel as if we are all just growing up way too fast. Before, I would just want to grow up already, but I obviously had no fucking clue what I was talking about. Haha."
 This is from Alyssa's blog.


I agree with Alyssa on this. I am 18 years old now and I look back and can’t believe that I’m 18. The last age I can think back and remember so well is when I was at the age of 11.

Out of all the birthday parties my parents have given me the best out of all would have to be my 11th birthday. I can remember my 11th birthday so well. We celebrated my birthday in Fremont at my best friends house Edna G. The cool thing celebrating my birthday at her house was that her house had a pretty big deep pool but the only thing that sucked was that I still had not really learned how to swim well in order to go to the deep area. For the past months Edna’s mom had been teaching me how to swim in the low area from the pool. But later on, on the day of my birthday I decided to face my fears to jump in the deep area and try to swim in the deep like my best friend and her family would. The good thing was that even thought I didn’t really know how to swim I had learned how to float. Once I jumped in the deep area and as I pushed my self up since I was able to float and able to sustain myself above water; I began to swim to the shallow area. I was so happy that I had finally learned how to swim. Later on that day we ate really delicious food my mother and Edna’s mom had cooked and then we part the cake outside at night which was really exciting. My mother gave me a little kitten for my birthday which I still have and it is 7-8 years old. Other people gave me cloths or money but most of all I was happy and appreciated for friends and family of mine and my parents that came to celebrate with my birthday. That day couldn’t have gone any better! I can remember that day so well like if it were yesterday. That’s why I say the older we get the faster time goes but its a part of life.

I remember when I first started my freshmen year in high school I had  told my friends, “watch time is going to fly super fast that when we at least expect it we’re going to be seniors because the older we get the faster time goes.” My close friends Elmina,Brenda, and Sahar did not respond to what I had said but Haneen did and she responded, “Girl, you’re crazy! Time is moving really slow and we still have three and a half years left.” I responded, “Lets bet on this, I bet you that time is going to speed by and that you’re going to want it to go slower and on the day of our graduation you’re going to say I was right and you were wrong” Now the crazy thing is that I knew I was going to remember that day so well that by the time the it comes to the day of my graduation that has not come yet but soon to be I am going to say “I told you so!”

As of time of right now I can’t get it through my mind that I am 18 already and this is my last year in high school. It is so weird that I was once a little 11 year old and now I hit the stage of an legal adult. The advantages of being below the age of 18 is that you have less responsibility's. Under the age of 18 you don’t have to worry about paying rent or buying groceries. Once you do hit the age of 18 and graduate most young legal adults have to either find a job or just continue on to college or maybe both, work and go to college. Most parents will still allow there young legal adults to keep on living in there house but as long as they go to college and possibly get a part time job to help out in rent,groceries, and that they also go along the parents house rules. I don’t think that’s so bad, it’s better then buying your own rent. But then there are those type of people who prefer and can’t wait move out of there parents house; I personalty think its better to live with your parents to you know you’re stable and able to pay all bills. Another thing people can do is move in with friends and they all put in for the rent, groceries etc. I wouldn’t mind doing that myself. It would be really nice to move in with my close friends and being able to experience of being on our own, being young responsible young lady’s.

So what what can I say? It’s a part of life to grow, to make mistakes and learn from them. And it’s true, the older we get the faster time goes. I would love for time to go a little slower but that’s the part of life.

(FREE) What A Small World


David Cruz is the coolest person in the world. He states, “I am way cooler than Vanessa M." Vanessa M. is one of my close friends. He is very polite and he's my best friend. I call him "White Boy" and he calls me, "Bicha,Sipota, and Salvy." The reason why I call him white boy is because he looks straight up like a white boy with his red-ish/brownish hair and light skinned. Although he is Costorian and Nicaraguense, he's a complete white boy. The reason for him calling me those names is because that’s Salvadorian talk and I am Salvadorian. Something that I really like about him is that he plays the drums really well; he is very talented. In my perspective and in many others, no one can play better then him.

I meet him at Bay Apostalic Church which is the church I attend. I’ve been going to this church since the age of two and I meet David when he was between the ages 9-11 which I am three years older then him. When his family first began to attend Bay Apostalic Church I didn’t know him really well but I knew some of his family and his grandmother which at that time when I had first meet them I did not know that I knew most of his family and never had I meet him. I thought it was so weird that I knew most of his family that lives in the Bay Area since my parents and I were pretty close to his aunts and uncles. We would go visit his aunts and cousins after church on Sundays since they would always invite us over for dinner. I would enjoy going because David cousins are really nice just like him. Just recently within the year David and I have become really good friends. The question I ask myself is, “how could I have gone knowing most of his family since I was little and never meet nor seen him?” Either way that does not matter anymore because I got to meet his white funny self in this small world.
