Time Traveling

Time machine. Have you ever had a dream that you would go on a time machine and travel around the world? Have you ever wondered how you would look when your 20, or if you will ever get married? I have. But I would only have a couple things I would want to do with a time machine.

Since I was little I have always said that I wanted to be a pediatrician. If I had a time machine in front of me I would probably go and see if I did become one. I travel and if I didn’t I would ask if I almost did or if I changed my mind. If I was about to become one I would go back in time and I would try twice as much just to get the dream I have had since I was a little girl.

Another thing I would do if I had a time machine would be to take my best friend Sara with me and see if we grew up happy. And if we got married. The reason why I would do that is because Sara and I are always so happy and we would have to travel in time and check if we still kept being happy. We would also go and see if we got married. We never really talk about getting married, because we think that we should live life and have fun before we get married and after we can think of things like that, but I would really want to find out if we do.

Since I was little I have always loved to sing. Singing is my life. If I could travel in time I would want to go about 10 years from now and see what I have done to my life with me loving music and loving to sing. I have always told my mom that I would like to make my own CD and sell my music to people. I would like to make concerts and make people happy with my music.

Traveling in time has not really been my dream, but seeing what I do in my life and what I have accomplished in life is really important to me. That’s why if I had a time traveling machine I would want to check my accomplishments.

Life

In Mexico you would mostly find people farming, usually the farmers were the ones that were not rich. I was told that they would have to farm to get money to buy food or clothes for their kids and family. My Grandparents told me that they would have their kids help them with the farming, it was hard work that needed two or more people.

Usually in a family, when the parents farm the kids fallow their path and they farm when they are older too. My uncle Silverio is a little different. He never liked to farm he would always complain, he always wanted to go to school and study. Back in the days people were so poor that they did not have money to go to school and buy books to pass the class. When his parents would ask him to help he would say “no, quiero ir a la escuela a estudiar “ no I want to go to school and study.

After a year he finally went to school. He loved school. He would always tell his parents that school is better than farming. Sometimes he would tell his brothers “estan gastando su tiempo sembrando! Vengan a la escuela” Your waisting your time farming! Come to school with me. They would just say no and walk away.

My tio Silverio finally graduated and went to college. He went to school to be a business man He liked to think of himself as the head of a business.
Right now he owns his own business. Its funny, even though he never liked farming he started a business that has something to do with farming. He sells many kinds of seeds and many farmers in Mexico go just to buy his seeds to plant. He is also married to a woman whom he calls " una muchacha bien bonita" a beautiful lady.

He might not be a millionaire, but, you can say he went from being a poor farmer to being a college graduate, and creating his own business.

The star fish story

Many people think that very little things won’t make a difference, just like the young man that was throwing star fish in the ocean to save their lives. He wasn’t going to be able to save all of them but he was going to make a difference by saving 100 or 2, he was saving that one star fish.

I believe the moral teaching of this story was to show us that you can do very little things to make a difference and even if you don’t finish it, you are still making the difference. You may be the only one is the world or the state that might be saving an animals or starfishes lives. You might be that one in a million that is helping the world to make a difference.

“Throughout the centuries there were men who took first steps, down new roads, armed with nothing but their own vision (Rand, Ayn)”. To me this young man wanted to make a new road, he wanted to save star fish. It was like a vision he had. Maybe he loved star fish and wanted to see them for the rest of his life. Just throwing those couple of star fish he was going to be able to see them forever.

“The sun is up and the tide is going out. If I don't throw them in, they'll die." We should all start trying to make a difference it only takes picking up one star fish and throwing it in the ocean before it dies.

Victory! For Pitt Bulls

"Victory! Huffington post removes Pit Bulls from list of Dangerouse pets" People have seen pit bulls as dangerous but they really are not. "While the information in the caption was not inaccurate, we understand that pit bulls' inclusion may have been out of place within the context of that particular slideshow, which focused on wild animals". All animals can act dangerous at one point even humans can act dumb, but dogs will act the way you train them to act, they will not act that way all the time, but it doesnt give them the right to call them dangerous.

The Great Debaters

"We do what we have to do in order to do what we want to do" This is a great quote James Farmer Jr said in "The Great Debaters". They had to go through so much and see so much racism and studying, but they still got what they wanted, to compete with Harvard. This movie will grab your attention really fast. It will make you realize that you can do anything no matter what."I got five dollars! I got five dollars!" said Samantha. You can tell this movie is from long ago, when they saw the money they got really happy and excited.

Diego Rivera

 I really liked this picture because of its shapes and because of the color. In this picture I can see that Diego Rivera is really proud of his Mexican Heritage. This picture has a little of everything he used or saw in his life in Mexico. In this picture I see a gun, maybe he put that because many times they need to protect themselves from someone or something. I also see a part of a pancho, many people in mexico used that alot to keep them warm. Half of a hat, used it to protect themselves from the heat or sun, sometimes they used it because they liked them. Mountains. Many times in movies you see all the mexicans on horses in the mountains. Just by looking at this picture I can see that he is proud of his Mexican Heritage.
