Cakes
So its Christmas time again and my house is usually filled with the aroma of cake. By the time New Year's comes along, I'm sick of cakes and don't even want to see the mixer. But I must admit love making them and decorating them too. I always love when i get an opportunity to decorate cakes and I rarely get to do Christmas ones so I'll try it out this time. I have tons of pictures of cakes I've done and what I've done with my mother. Sadly I can't access them right now but we do birthdays, parties, anniversaries and weddings too. Call me if you ever need a cake. (This post wasn't really like my other ones, but who doesn't love some good cake right?)
Christmas
So its beginning to look a lot like Christmas. I spent all week long decorating my house and outside with lights, lights and more lights. It took me ironically, 7days, just like God when he created the world, lol. I look at everything when I was done and saw that it was good. I said to myself, WOW! My dad asked me who's going to say WOW! when the light bill comes but that's not what Christmas is about! Its a time for spreading joy and peace. Hopefully people in Belize can realize this. Don't forget to give to the less fortunate as well. I love to give my mother's spare change to the Salvation Army with the people ringing their bells along with their red kettles. So just some food for thought so you don't get lost in all this Christmas hustle and bustle

Registration -_-
So who hates the registration process? Just about anybody you know who goes to SJCJC. On Monday morning my friends and I got up 5:30 to get to school for 6, you'd think we would be first in line right? Well we weren't, we we like thirty something. People kept on jumping the line and it reached to about 50 people now in front of my friends and I. The when the registrar comes, there's no order and they threaten to cancel registration. Then they let in a few people who weren't even in the correct line. But anyways, that didn't get to me as much as how the administration talked to us. We were treated like children and called hooligans. They should have done registration by department as usual, but nooooo. I must admit I went the next day at the same time again and things were much more orderly. But seriously SJCJC, get it together.

Thanksgiving
So I know we live in somewhere we don't celebrate thaksgiving but it's the perfect reason to eat some turkey. My mother is an awesome cook, chef like almost, and she cooked a turkey feast yesterday for thanksgiving. It was delicious as always and the most important thing about it was that it brought the family together. So it brings you to want to say thank you for all you have. As for me, I am thankful for my wonderful parents, sure they make mistakes but I love them no matter what. I'm thankful for my family, those who have passed away and those who are still here. I'm also thankful for all my great friends, both new and old. I'm just thankful for everything I have. Try to remember what you're thankful for =)

Blackeyed Peas
So I like to listen to music like any other teenager. I have many favorite bands, singers and groups. One of my favorite groups recently caught my attention again, the Blackeyed Peas. They are bringing out a new album with some old school flair. All the songs have like remixes of old songs from back in the day. They kind of bring techno viibe to an oldie but a goodie. For your listening pleasure, you should check out two of their songs "Rock that Body" and "The Time". I think what they are doing is pretty cool. They have already done their own thing and now they brought back life to some some old songs we used to love. So just think about this ;)

16 and Pregnant
So if you don't watch television much, there's this show on MTV about girls who a re 16 and pregnant and it follows their lives up until birth and after birth. It is really interesting to watch sometimes. I love to watch television and I like to watch this show. It is enjoyable sometimes to see some of these girls ge through their struggles but then other times you feel sad for them. They are 16 and pregnant most often times with boyfriends that might ot be around forever. After the first season I thought that this should be a wake up call for some girls out there but now that the show is in their third season I don't know what to think. We should learn something from these girl's experiences, shouldn't we?
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows again . . .
So I was excited all of last week knowing that Harry Potter was going to come out on the 19th. But then I realized there's no way I would be able to watch it in Belize because Princess never gets any movies now. So my only option would be to go all the way to Chetumal to watch it. Sadly I had a few restrictions and I couldn;t make it there so I was bummed out all weekend long. But isn't sad that we have to rely on other countries for certain things. We can't even go out to enjoy a movie in a decent environment in our own country. Princess, like many other things in Belize, started off bright getting hit movies but these days the cenima is just there for style with all the posters of movies that they never got hanging around. We have to step it up in Belize some how or we'll be lost in the dust.
