Crazy Day

That day at noon I remember that I was helping a friend to study English we were so bored, just telling jokes and eating some junk food at her house, his brother was playing world of warcraft and he looked like a zombie just like other WoW players.

I'm a fireworks freak so I told her: Hey Marta why don't we go and blow up some fireworks? and then she told me- Well... sometimes it scares me but we're doing nothing here so why not?. Try to wake up my brother from his WoW-asleep and ask him if we can go. After minutes of shouting at loud on him he noticed that I was calling him. He didn't say anything at first but I don't know if he died on his game or what but he turned off the computer and said "OK Let's go".

That night everything was really cold, and when we got to the center of the city and asked some places that sells fireworks we noticed that they now call the funny fireworks "illegal", so we were there without fireworks and bored. Minutes later I remembered that I had a friend that sells the "funny" fireworks so I called him and he told me that he had some, so we went there and bought what we where searching for.

Late that night we were blowing up the fireworks all around San Ramon, that was the moment that the "BEST" idea of the night came to my mind, and I said "Hey look at that house with the windows opened lets blow one of the most little (the one that we exploded I don't know the name but it makes a high sound and the explodes)", they said: Hmm it's dangerous but exciting LET'S DO IT!"

Now I don't have the time to write the rest of the story but if you enjoyed it tell me and I'll be posting it as soon as possible!

PD: The final thing of the story is better than the rest.

SCARIEST PHOTO YOU HAVE EVER SEEN!

People don't usually believe any story at all until their eyes receive a proof of what someone is telling them, and I have it.

This picture was taken during a normal model photo shoot or at least it seemed like "normal" some nude pics for a calendar... boobies and you know. When the photographer finished the photo shoot he went home and took a look to the pics he took that day on his laptop but a picture had something weird that seemed like looking at the camera at first he thought it was only his finger on the picture or something, but in that moment he said to himself "come on... I've been working on this for 20 years it's impossible for me to make a mistake like that" and when he zoomed the picture he founded out that it wasn't nothing that could be cathegorized in the concept of "normal" months later of the incident the photographer was found in the Psychiatrist Hospital of London until the today nobody have never explained the picture.

*If you're susceptible I recommend not to see the picture*

Thanksgiving


What is thanksgiving?
It's basically a day to share with the family on the fourth day of november.
Who were the pilgrims?
The pilgrims were a small group of people who sailed to North America in order to start a new life.
What is the Mayflower?
The Mayflower is the ship that the pilgrims used to sail to Nort America.

Who are the Wampanoag?

The Wampanoag are people from North America who were here long before any Europeans arrived, and have survived until today. Many people call them "Indians" but they prefer to be called native people.

What happened to the Pilgrims during the first winter?
This was very bad timing as the Pilgrims did not have time to plant food for the winter. The first winter was very harsh for the new settlers. The cold temperatures and snow interfered as the Pilgrims tried to construct their settlement. Out of the original group of Pilgrims, only about half survived the first winter.

What did the Wampanoag do for the pilgrims?
The wampanoag taught the pilgrims how to hunt, fish and grow corn.

What did they celebrate t
he first Thanksgiving?
They celebrated because they had a succesful harvest so they had food for all the winter, for that reason they invited the indians to join in the celebration and also because they were who taught them how to survive.

When is Thanksgiving Celebrated now?
In 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day to be held each November.

Talking about what I learned it is pretty much because I have never heard about it maybe in Internet or T.V shows but not so much and learning about its history is very interesting and I guess that there may be people that celebrate it and even they don't know all of this.

Ilegal Thing

Well to start my topic, this is about police pursuits. Everyone has at least once seem a police pursuit, this happen when a guy is being followed by many police officers or even a police helicopter and if that's the case also a news helicopter, most of the times because of something pretty stupid like speeding up, sometimes it's because of something more serious like robbing a bank, drug traffic or even terrorism but that's once in a million... The case is that most of the times when police pursuits occurs is because of speeding up and then the guy freaks out and the traffic starts to crash and then the police gets stronger.

That's the pursuits that we are used to watch on T.V or internet but the reason why I've choosed this video is because it's in some ways completely different. But I won't kill the interesting parts, go on and watch it.

My Profile (By Elga)

Sergio lives in San Ramon, he's 16 years old and currently is finishing the high school.
Sergio's greatest achievement is to have loved people beside him in difficult moments, the living person who he admires the most is his mother , because she is always taking care about him.

Sergio's favorite trip is just to go to some place with a nice company person, the best decision he has ever made was to start studying the bible, moreover the worst decision he has made was hurting someone for his own benefit.

In relation to an amazing place where Sergio has been, he didn't refer to a specific one, whatever park or place could be pleasant if he has done something special there.

Sergio believes happy moments depends more on the decisions that everyone takes , in fact he says "Is obvously that perfect happiness doesn't exist" he thinks we need just look and find it.

He didn't comment the reasons because he's learning english , but I suppose that speaking a second language might let him to take advantage of better jobs opportunities in the future.

Sergio didn't add a talent , "I'm happy myself" he says; during the interview he expressed something like: "What do you study or work a lot , if in whatever moment you can die? it supports my idea that he's a little conformist , even is true someday we'll die for me every life's second is a gift from God , so we must value it being a better person every day and doing good actions in humanity's benefit , besides while we live in this world is important to trace goals and to strive for getting them .
Something Sergio really objects to is people that makes relationships just for fun , also chracteristics that Sergio dislikes in people are: false or liers , on the other hand he really admires sociable people.One of his greatest ambition is to make someone feels the most valuable for him.

The words that sums up Sergio from my point of view are: a stable and humble person , he keeps a possitive attitude even in troubles , however he wishes he were more emotional strong sometimes.
I consider he has a spiritual personality which makes him to think more in solutions that in obstacles, he prefers simple things , in small details he can find realization , for example in questions related trips he only thought in spending a good time with friends or family without taking care about superficial or material things around him, actually his most treasured possession is health.

One of the most descriptfull words for her is "Study", she's the kind of person that will always answer with her job or carreer when you make this question "What makes you who you are?".

She says that her greatest achievement is have gotten a license degree, and her best decision was changing the carreer ( the bad thing is that I don't remember what carreer was) and also the worst decision she has ever made was finishing her bachiller in San Jose. Her single best moment of her life was have gotten her bachiller.

I think she thinks or even worry so much about study... I mean, you just have to take a look in their biggest decisions in her life it's all about study. two word that sums up her is book smart.

Her idea of perfect happiness is harmony, love and spirituality, she value learning more languages and many things every day.
One thing that she admires in a person is dedication (Ow... she doesn't admires me haha...)
Her greatest ambition is having a nice house and a happy family.

"Confidence in oneself is the first key to success"
"Happiness sometimes depends in our decisions"
