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.

Novelas

So my mom comes from Caye Caulker and she comes from a Spanish background. When I was younger I used to question why my mom wasted time watching these silly novelas. They seemed to all have the same plot. Some one is either, crying, fighting, cheating on someone, or any other usual stuff. But recently I started watching one with her and I understand, lol. It gives you drama and excitement. And on the plus side, I get to learn some Spanish too =). But anyways I guess what I'm getting at is "don't judge a book by its cover"

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

So I can't believe Harry Potter is coming to an end. Its like it was just yesterday I was watching the Sorcerer's Stone. I've never read the books sadly, I could never get my hands on any of them. I can't wait for this one to come out!. Sadly we'll still have to wait for part 2 anyways. And how lucky are we to have a holiday on the same day it come out (chet trip =p).

Together Weather

Its soo lovely being able to wake up and feel the chill in the air this past week. I have thin skin, I must admit, but I just love having to be able to go outside with my sweater or going to bed with a nice warm blanket. Its starting to feel like Christmas now. I don't know about anybody else but I love Christmas. I love how it looks and smells; and of course you can't forget the whole meaning behind it all. But anyways, I can't wait for this Christmas season to come =)

Baby commercials

So I don't know if anybody else is noticing but babies are becoming very popular in commercials these days. Have you ever seen the e-trade commercials? I love that e-trade baby! He's so cute and the way they make him seem so mature is sooo funny. And that HP commercial for their new printer, the baby zooming through traffic is adorable. He's overtaking people and the wind is blowing through her hair. I guess if you have a baby, now is the time to get them into show business =p

Values

So when we're kids, our parents teach us to share and to be nice to each other. They tell you its wrong to steal, or call other people names. But when you think about, why don't adults follow what they preach to us? You tell us to share our cookies but you fight over oil? You're in government and you steal millions of dollars to buy yourself a new fancy car or renovate your already big enough house. When you think about it, its not right. Its time for us to do something about it.

Sleep

So we all do it, anywhere sometimes. that's right, sleep. Its a weird thing, sleep. You are recommended to get 7 to 8 hours of sleep to be fully rested, but you're still tired after that. When you do sleep more than 8 hours, you're still tired after too. Then when you fall asleep during the day for a nap, you can't sleep later and you're just lying there. Nonetheless, its a love hate relationship. Right now its about bedtime and I'm loving it =)

Jaguar

So you heard about the jaguar right? A jaguar attacked and killed an innocnet man. A friend of mine brought this to mind, "you kill the jaguar for killing a man, but when another man kills a man, nothing happens to them". Enough said. This really brings a new perspective to life in Belize.

Golden Girls

I always watch the Golden Girls at night when it comes on. One night I was watching and realized that out of the four Golden Girls, one is left alive. Betty White is still living and carries on even today in her career that is booming even more. We should appreciate those greats who have passed away. The others who have passed away had great careers and beloved as the comedic Golden Girls we love and cherish. So with All Soul's Day coming soon, remember those who passed away in your family too.

Support After Richard

Many people were affected by Hurricane Richard. It is time for us to help each other and bring aid and relief to those who really suffered. Many don't have food or clothes. So as a united nation, hopefully, we should try to help each other. Find the compassion in your heart to try and give any canned foods or any clothing and blankets to those who were less fortunate. It could have been you, and you would have appreciated help too.
