ENTRY #2. HALLOWEEN

Image
Hello ladies and germs I want to talk to you guys about the upcoming HALLOWEEN!!! I know I know what loser is going to sit in front of a laptop and talk about candy and customs... well me! I guess I ran out of things to talk about today so I'm deciding to talk about the spooky holiday we call Halloween. Did you guys know why we dress up and go treat-or-treating and everything is scary? yeah me neither but I had found out on a recent research that  Many European cultural traditions hold that Halloween is a time when magic is most potent and spirits can make contact with the physical world . In Christian times, it became a celebration of the evening before All Saints’ Day . Immigrants from Scotland and Ireland brought the holiday to the United States, according to this website → https://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/us/Halloween . Its pretty legit and all but how I see it, we love to have fun with Halloween. its a day where we can be ANYTHING in public and nobody can say anything a

ENTRY #1. OPINION ON BLOGS.

Most of the time when I come across a blog, I know I am about to be very informed either in a professional way or personal. which ever one it is, they both inform the reader in many ways, think about it, if I was a grandma looking at my daughters page about her kids and her vacations, I will be very informed that my grandkids are doing good. A blog is everything you can think of when it comes to people who love to read and know what's going on the social media. If I wanted to read a journal about heart disease I can look at all the research blogs out there and get informed. Something I found out not to long ago was that I've been blogging all my life, having a Facebook, twitter all define bogging. For example, writing about what's on your mind or something personal is blogging especially having a bunch of people see it and having their own opinion on it. I guess blogging isn't the worst thing, it just informs us with things we WANT to know and that's the way I see i

ENTRY #1. WHO IS MARIVY?

Hello my name is Marivy Carrasco. I am the oldest out of five sisters and one brother and all I can say about that is that it sucks being the oldest. I had to experience high school first and experience driving a car first and experience college first, basically be the tough one to handle it all and all responsibilities. My hobbies are going out to the movies and hanging out with friends and family. I also like to draw anything that can come to mind and play basketball. Basketball for me has been there all my life and I have to say its a sport I've passed on to my little sisters and brother because they are sure good at playing it. My passion is to be successful in life, either being a great athletic trainer one day or being a successful music producer. those are my goals and the reason why I am attending college. Nobody else is going to do it for me, I have to go and get it.

Entry #11. Blogging.

Image
Having a blogger made me realize that I have been blogging all of my life. Posting my thoughts on the internet and making comments under peoples photos or any cause is exactly bogging because it is social. I started to like blogging on blogger because it was something I've been doing but differently. Differently in the way where I had to talk about specific and non-specific things to people who I didn't really know that much. Knowing that I was having "people that I didn't really know that much" allowed to look at my blogs, made me challenge myself to be more professional in my writing. This blogging experience made me think twice about my writing and check for any mistakes, maybe because I was getting graded but I was careful. I had some fun with this blogging experience and I'm glad I was allowed to write about anything in some entries. There was no judgement, I few advices but I learned form them. It was a good experience blogging on blogger.

Entry #10. sometihng to get you through the day.

The one thing that keeps me going is seeing how far I've come. I know that sounds corny but honestly the one thing that keeps me going is knowing that nothing is forever. As happy and as sad as that may sound it's one of the best things to know. Every storm passes. And you will make it through the rain and the sun does come out again. But just as easily as the storm has passed just know that it'll always be back. But always remember that it cannot rain forever. This is not the end. You'll get through it all. Think about how you're life was a year ago remember that place you were in a year ago? It ended. That person that left hasn't crossed your mind in months. That post that you wrote on Facebook about how the world was ending you don't even remember what you were talking about. The world wasn't ending, it didn't end. You keep going and eventually shit gets better. And if you're stuck right now in a bad relationship or just in a hard t

Entry.#8. Milestones in Life

Image
When it comes to big things happening in life we always make sure they have a grand name along with a grand celebration. We see this throughout history and especially with anniversaries. People love celebrating an anniversary for anything. In relationships, in businesses and just life in general. I actually have one of those big milestones coming up and I just wanted to share some of the things that are going to come along with mine. I’m turning 21 this upcoming weekend and it’s going to be the biggest milestone I’ve celebrated so far in my life. Other milestones people celebrate after 21 is probably turning 40 because nobody really cares about 30 and then it’s 50 and 60 years old. It’s almost like a congratulations for making it this far if you think about it. Which I have to say I have made it very far in life so far. The big thing about turning 21 is finally being of “legal” age. Which never made sense to me because they ship kids off to the army at age 18. And the only thi

Entry #9. WHAT THE HEALTH.

Image
  The popular Netflix documentary  " What The Health " states facts about obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. To be honest, there was so much bias against processed meats and sugar, my blood started to boil a little. I wanted to stop watching the film after 20 minutes because everything that I knew I was eating lead to all the statistics of diabetes and cancer. though I learned a lot about the cause, there was a connection to the film "fresh" that advised eating more vegetables and less processed meats. The film is skewed towards a low-fat vegan diet. In the opening Kip Anderson, a film producer, describes his qualifications as a “recovering hypochondriac.” The tone is dark and dramatic music plays during animal agriculture scenes and the video spans over primarily overweight individuals walking along the street. Upbeat music accompanies any discussion of a vegan diet and its many benefits. The film advocates for a solely vegan diet and an expert o

Entry #7. My thoughts on the film "FRESH"

Image
   while watching the film "fresh" I've seen how farmers have their own ways of running their own stability of agriculture. The purpose of making this film was to break the cycle of conventional food production and start going towards a more healthier life by growing and eating organic foods. Will Allen, one of the farmers who had about 3 acres of property, turned it into a nourishing farmland in Milwaukee. He talks about how good organic farming works showing off healthy soil, naturally grown vegetables and even yummy worms! why are worms good for plants? well I learned that the worms mucus contain hormones that help the plants grow so then plants have longer to obtain the nutrients and get the Maximum benefit. Also another guy named David Ball who talks about the standard concepts of a regular supermarket and how different it is buying from a local farmer. There is a difference! I learned buying from a supermarket half the time you wont see any labels 100%. accordin
