A Better Community

There are many different aspects that come together to make a community a great one. The people living there, the schools, the police, and the local merchants all work together to make a community flourish and desirable to live in. however, I think that the best way to improve a community is to give it a complete facelift. It’s common knowledge that when a person feels good about the place they live in, they will take care of it. This involves making the community as beautiful so as the inhabitants will feel pride in keeping it orderly and cleaned. First, we must begin with the streets and roads of a community. Its very annoying to be driving atop of hundreds of potholes. We need to fix those up first. Then we must plant trees do make tree lined streets in every neighborhood, to give those streets a quaint and tranquil vibe. Then we must remove all graffiti and repaint all the buildings. There’s nothing more degrading to a building than graffiti and once the buildings are freshly painted, the citizens will want to protect them and there will be less crime. Then each house must be remodeled. If the people enjoy and feel happy in their homes, they will not want to leave and they will be happy to contribute to the benefit of thr whole community. Most importantly, we must clean the streets and make sure the community isn’t littered. No one likes living in dirty places. By putting my plan into action, we can rest assure that any community will become an even better one

Day in the life of Fehbe

What happens in a typical day in the life of Fehbe? Not much can happen actually. I wake up, if I even went to sleep the night before anyway, and wash my face. Then I look at my closet and decide what to wear if the night before I was too lazy to lay out an outfit for the day. I get dressed but I don’t do my hair just yet. I do my makeup first and then I go into the kitchen and eat breakfast and afterwards I brush my teeth, do my hair, and I’m out the door. If it’s a school day, I go to school. I spend about 4 hours in that horrible jail and then I leave at lunch because I don’t have a close after lunch. Then I get home, check my Facebook, and look for something to eat. I usually take a nap after I eat for about 2 hours. Then I wake up and get dressed to go to work. I usually work about 5 hours at a jewelry store at the mall. I help the customers mach accessories with their dresses for whatever occasion they need. It’s the type of work that I enjoy because I love dressing people up. if I have to close, I vacuum the store and then do a quick mop of the whole store and lock the doors. It usually takes 45 minutes. Then I get home, change, find a party to go to and go out to wait until the next morning, when I start everything all over again.

The Most Disgusting Vegetable Ever

I hate artichokes. I despise them in fact. Why anyone could even choose to eat them baffles me. They are disgusting and they look disgusting too. They look like a disgusting deformed flower. How nature, who is so talented at creating beautiful objects can create such a gross abomination as an artichoke I will never understand. Then they just smell horrible too. Sometimes they can smell rancid, but an herby kind of rancid. When they are cooked they amplify their smell even more and stink up the whole house. It’s horrible. They don’t look any better when they’re cooked either. They turn a mossy green color and their leaves become soft and breakable. They do not look appetizing whatsoever. It’s remarkable that anyone can eat them. I find it amazing that upscale 5 star restaurants offer artichokes as delectable and expensive dishes. These dishes can cost more than a typical steak dinner. I just really hate artichokes! And unfortunately, my mother actually likes them. She will bring home about 5 artichokes and stuffs them with other different vegetables. She also makes a gross artichoke dip with them that always makes me gag when I see it. It’s not that the ways she makes the artichokes causes my reactions; on the contrary, I have heard from other people that these dishes are actually quite delicious. However, it is the mere fact that they are made from artichokes that prevents me from even attempting to try them. Artichokes and I just don’t mix.

My Favorite Season

Baby it's cold outside! My absolute favorite season is winter! I simply adore the cold weather! I find warm weather pleasant because I can wear short shorts, skirts, dresses, go the beach, there's no school on summer break, and you don't have to worry about getting sick. But there are so many more awesome things synonymous with cold weather! First of all there's all the amazing and gorgeous winter clothes at the mall that you can never have enough of. I love layering things on and I'm always on the lookout for cute jackets, coats, boots, scarves, and sweaters. There's just so much you can do with winter clothing! Then cold weather brings to mind so many wonderful things; Christmas, hot chocolate, warm fires in the chimney, apple cider, Thanksgiving, snow, Christmas store displays, warm blankets, cheesy but yet so addicting family holiday movies, warm soups, snowmen, blowing air of your mouth to pretend you're smoking, and rain! I love the idea of wearing my warmest and most comfortable Abercrombie and Fitch sweats, wrapping myself in a huge thick blanket, curling up on the couch and watching the rain fall on my window or even just watching a movie. I also love all the delicious coffee creations Starbucks only brings out in the winter. Pumpkin Spice, Peppermint Mocha, Toffee Caramel,mmmmm..,there's nothing better to warm you up on a blistery cold morning. Oh and we can't forget about Hot Chocolate! I find no better morning than those when you can go outside and the air is so cool that although the sun is out, you can see with your eyes (before you even go outside) how cold and chilly it is. Just please don't let it be windy because then my bones will freeze. I know it doesn't snow here in Southern California, but winter time means snow in the mountains or in Texas where my family usually spend winter break. I can't explain the feeling I get when I wake up and find the ground covered in snow, until someone has to go shovel it. Then running through the orchids of ice-covered barren trees is totally magical! Then for about a month, during December, everyone is in a good mood. Maybe it's because Christmas is coming up, but there's such an aura of good cheer everywhere that only happens in the winter and families huddle together not for warmth like they did in the time of yore, but for love. I love winter! Can it please come any faster?

Fighting Siblings

Through thick and thin, family always stays together. They are the ones that will always be with you no matter what you may do. Brothers and sisters especially share a close bond that can very rarely be replicated. However, it is a well known fact that siblings are constantly bickering. At times, this is considered normal and it is a healthy exercise to release unnecessary stress and tensions that can build up in the family. Yet, if the bickering is excessive, it can lead to harsh problems in the family. Constant fighting can make siblings see a rivalry between each other because the parents will more often than not give the benefit of the doubt to one of the siblings. This can be the start of a lifelong feud harbored between siblings. They can start to avoid each other and disturb the balance in the family. The best way to deal with situations like these is to pay no preferred attention to either sibling. Allow the siblings to fight out their problems but don’t intervene. Later remind each one to have an open mind and listen to the other’s opinions and consider that perhaps they have reason to say what they did. If the fighting becomes too intense, however, it would be wise to call a professional in. there are many good family psychiatrists that could pinpoint your children’s true reasons for fighting and help them and the whole family to resolve them. This way, the family can return to a normal balance.

Buying a new Computer

I am so excited to buy a new computer! My old one finally crashed on me and I need to replace it as soon as I possibly can because I need it for school. I know well enough not to simply go into a store and pick the prettiest one there because it may not have the features I want. So first I will think about what type of computer I want; thin or thick, with an emphasis on music or gaming or not, etc. Then once I figure out how I want my computer to be and what I will use it for, I will research the different computers on the market that fit my criteria. I will write down the computers that I like and then ask people that I know that are good with computers and technology. Based on their opinions, I will narrow my choices down to at least three computers. Then I will go into the stores that sell the computers that I want and see them first hand. This is the most crucial step of the whole process. I need to actually see and touch the computers so that I can make an accurate decision. I will play around with the computers and see all their features. Finally, if I can’t make a decision by myself, I will ask for store personnel for help since their whole job revolves around knowing and selling computers. Once they give me their opinion on what I should get, then that’s when I’ll make my choice and buy a new computer.

Doing well on College Admission Tests

So you want to go to college. Ok, no problem. Oh wait, you have to pass an admissions test first. For many seniors, these tests are called the SAT and the ACT. These dreaded tests are often the only things standing in between seniors and college. They are extremely hard to pass and simply going in and thinking you will do good on them with no prior preparation is ludicrous. The best way to do well on these tests is to study. And study some more and since you’re already there, study a bit more. This is not an exaggeration; the SAT and ACT truly require a large amount of studying if test takers wish to do well.
There are a variety of tips and tricks that test takers must be aware of so that they can do their best and the easiest way to earn of these is by taking a tutoring class with a certified teacher. Kaplan is an accredited business that has been helping students learn valuable test taking tips and getting good scores on those tests. Once you’ve prepared yourself over a period of time for the tests, the preparation does not end on test day. The night before you take the test, you must get at least 8 hours of sleep so you can feel refreshed the next morning. In the morning, eat a hearty breakfast that will help keep you focused while taking the test and not worried about hunger. Take your time but pace yourself, since the tests are times. The most important tip, however, is simply do your best.
