Memorable Learning Experience

I remember the 1st time I went driving with my mom. I almost killed her. I almost ran into a bush because I can't drive even if it could save my own life. I did park good though, I guess that is a good thing. Also, my mom complimented me on my parking but not so much on the turning around bushes. Then she yelled at me because I pushed on the gas a little too much and I think i jerked the car and she kind of went forward toward the dashboard. Well, we did not tell my dad about me driving the car for the first time because first of all, I was only 15 when I drove the car and he would have flipped out.

Fa la la Holidays :)

When I think about the word Traditions, I think of Christmas and families coming together and being happy.
In my family, one of our traditions would be decorating the christmas tree. If we did not decorate the tree, Christmas would not be the same. Another tradition we have in the Thompson Househole would be opening our gifts Christmas morning between 7 and 8 am. Afterwards we would go to our grandparents house or they would come to my house and we would open up those gifts.
Not only do we have traditions for Christmas, but also for Thanksgiving. At thanksgiving dinner we would each sit down at the table and just eat. We would do it as a whole family though. Not just me, my siblings and my parents. But me, my siblings, my parents, my aunt, my cousin, and my grandparents. We are all thankful for having each other in our lives because without them, the holidays and even everyday life would not be completed without anyone.

Breaking Dawn Part 1

Basically this weekend I went to the North Haven Movie Theatre with my friend Mirissa Mantini. We seen the moive The Twilight Saga; Breaking Dawn Part 1. From my perspective and point of view, this movie was the BEST out of all 4 movies that came out so far. Some people say it was gory, others seen it multiple times in the same day. The main character I focused on was Taylor Lautner, who played as Jacob Black, a former member of the wolfpack. All Jacob wants is for Bella (Kristen Stewart) to be happy and healthy. Taylor Lautner is known as a "hunk" to hundreds of thousands of people around the world, but to me; I would prefer him have his shirt on. He is not some figure to be eye candy for teens around the world. Taylor Lautner is human, just like you, just like me. Treat him with respect. In the movie Breaking Dawn Part 1, not even 30 seconds into the movie did Jacob Black rip off his shirt while receiving the news that the Love of his Life was getting married to his worst enemy. That was the only scene that Taylor Lautner took off his shirt in the movie. For the rest of the movie, his shirt remained on which I still delightfully enjoyed.

Whose mad?

Five things that make me mad?

 1.  $^(# head boyfriends
 2.  Annoying Laughs
 3.  Loud People
 4.  Lazy People
 5.  Potheads

 So basically, what I am gonna do is pick one of the items listed above i guess and write 200 words on it? The one I chose to talk about is the 3rd one which is loud people. I do not understand why people are loud. Whether it is on the streets in a classroom or even in your own home. If you are talking to someone, use your indoor voice. They are mostly likely right next to you or if anything, a few feet away. It is obnoxious and annoying to alot of people. I have people in my neighborhood who are loud in any place for absolutely no reason. They legit scream across the room when the person is right next to them. Like are you serious right now? Are you really gonna be that loud when the person is right next to you? There is no need for it. When you want to talk to someone, walk up to the person and actually talk in a low voice. Do not scream across the room because people will look at you like you have ap roblem and you need help.Is there any place that is full of a room with quiet people?

I went around the classroom to a few of my classmates and asked them what they thought about loud people.
One girl said that they are annoying and aggravating and that they should be pt in an area around other people like them."
Another girl said, " I think  I would want to rip their heads off. "

Now I found an article on ezinearticles.com and this article explains how to deal with loud people in public places. Personally, I think it is an excellent piece of advice for people to take into consideration of reading or even handing out fliers promoting the stop of loud classrooms and loud public places.

Mickey Mouse in classrooms or just paranoia?

A lot of people say that your fears are what make you see things that are not really there. Maybe that is the rule for a typical high school classroom in New Haven. My name is Alyssa Thompson and I am reporting to you from Mr.Monahan's journalism classroom at Metropolitan Business Academy located on 115 Water Street. What seemed to be a normal day in journalism class turned out to be what students might call a tragedy due to a mouse scurrying across the classroom under a vent connected to the wall. Girls jumped onto tables and on class chairs afraid of the little mouse. Other students made jokes about the creature that came to visit the classroom. Personally, I do not think it is that big of a deal but if students are scared, then they need to feel safe again. What more can you do than look for the mouse and figure out where it went?

Im so Random!

Ok so basically what I am going to blog about in this post is additional information about me and what I think about stuff going on in my life.
Well for starters, I cant stand subsitutes. Some of them are cool but others smell gross or talk weird or they dont know how to be a sub. I live in Hamden and my birthday is on May 25th. I love going to the mall with my friends. Not really my family because I dont really get along with my sister or brother. I am close with my dad and sort of close with my mom. I have really blonde hair and currently bleached it. I tlooks wonderful I think. I also think that it is good to look different in my school because it distinguishes you from everyone else since we all have to wear basically the same uniform. Speaking of, I hate these damn things. They are uncomfortable and the skirts are so ugly. Anyways, school is an ok place I guess because I do not have to be home all day and the teachers and my friends keep me busy with all the talking and work they have me do. Also, my boyfriend keeps me busy. His name is JC, which stands for Jean Carlo. Yeah, He is hispanic: specifically Costa Rican. We have been going out since April 10th, 2010. I know, a year and 6 months. I do not know what I would do without him.
 I will be back soon with more words to tell you.
 So make sure you read and take notes because that is all there is to say About This Lady. :)

How is my blog?

So basically, what this post is about is what is missing in my blog and what is not missing.
I think that my blog is pretty good as far as circumstances go but I could use more hyperlinks next time I post a blog like this one. :)
My blogs are pretty good with all the pictures up here that come along with each blog. Just to let everyone know who exactly I talking about.
