America cant control everything.

A hurricane just came through Houston, Tx where I stay and before this time I had never been in a hurricane. Things were really scary. I was talking with my mom about it, and we both agreed that it would have been better if the hurricane came in the day time. But it was in the middle of the night. I could barely sleep. Once the lights went off at 4:00 in the morning things just went down hill. We had no power for a couple of dayz. My familly and I had to evaucate to a relatives house because the conditions with no power were starting to become un barelable. I wish the experience on no one. It was a tripp cause I always thought that America was in control . And when I experienced this it was mind blowing. I was so used to the government doin everything and then president and just all that but then when the catasrophe hit us there was nuthing that we could do. We were all helpless.

A lil taste of my world...

Well first off I LOVE FOOD!! I love all kinds of food, from Chinese food, to Italian food, to junk food! My favorite junk food is french fries (mmmmmm) with some salt and pepper on it. I don't even need ketchup especially if the fries are coming from Mc Donalds. (lol) I eat all the time, and the funny thing about it, I never gain weight. lol! I love slow r & b, rap, punk rock, some country, and I even like a little bit of jazz. I don't watch to much t.v because I'm so busy with school stuff, but when I do get a chance to watch t.v. I like to reality shows, and show like Forensic Files, American Justice and Law & Order, that come on Tru TV, and TNT. I watch lifetime too, and also the music channels like B.E.T, MTV, ect. My favorite subject in school would be English, because I love to analyze and look deep into what the author is saying. Out of all my classes, English I think I do the best in. My average grade for that class would be like an A-. Another passion of mine is BASKETBALL! I love the game of playing basketball. The adrenalin rush when my team and I are about to play a game is amazing! And its just so much fun. My strengths include being able to communicate my point across really well, I'm a good listener, encouraging others and gettting them to see the brighter side, and I also think that I'm a good friend. Some of my weaknesses would be that I can be lazy about doing things. Like sometimes I just don't feel like doing anything, and I just want to sleep and eat (lol) and watch T.V. When it comes time for a test I have to study. Especially if its a subject that I have trouble in, such as math. That class gives me a hard time. I am a visual learner and I learn by example. So the day in class that we talk about the test and go over questions I make sure that the teacher goes over problems that I don't understand, and I then I go home and I do more practice problems. I study different subjects differently. Now the thing that I would love to learn most from this class is knowing how to work different application software. Once we get our teams I think our work should be divided up among us equally. And the person should choose which part of it is easy for them to do. Such as if you know how to draw then you should be the person that draws. And last but not least Why would I make a great team member? Well I think that I can really keep the mood up and help to create a more fun learning enviornment, but also when it comes to doing work and making good grades, I take it seriously,
***Well that was a lil taste of Desiree. Hope you enjoyed getting to know a lil more about me! :) :)
