friday june 11, 2010

Most people in power abuse that privelge to cover up the truth to protect themselves. They deny the truth to the public because they know it would cause scandels and their careers would most likely be over. So therefore, anyone who comes forth with the truth, they would accuse them of libel. Basically, the greater the truth, the greater the libel, its as simple as that. In my life, my mother usually " thinks" that she's always right but most of the times she's not. I do not like the fact that when we argue, my mom always has to have the last word. She's my mother afterall, what can i do.

Oil spill

On wednesday night, governemnt officals confirmed that oil might be leaking from a well in the Gulf of Mexico. Suprisingly, the oil is leaking at a rate of five thousand barrels a day. If that isn't frightening, i don't know what is. It is polluting the oceans, which causes a huge problem to our environment. On the other hand, the oil spill is affecting our wildlife. Animals are dying and that devastates me because I love animals and I don't like the thought of then being endangered. I understand that our president is doing everything in his power to help the situation, however he needs to do more. What if all the sea animals became extinct, what will happen then? The oil spill is causing destruction to our surroundings and wildlife and we need and as a community we need to lend a helping hand. I want this to end, so please help in any way possible. It's the little things we do that makes a big difference.

summer

This summer i need to go on a vacation but i have no idea where i should go. My parents wants to send me to Canada but canada is so damn boring. Ugh. I want to go on a crusie man, i just hope my parents will let me go. If i don't pass the regents my summer is gonna be so screwed up and that means no fun for me. So i gotta focus on passing and then on fun. i Can't wait!

Pizza!

At the party on Friday, I had two slices of pizza. It was pure cheesy goodness. The pizzas were not too small nor too big, just right in the middle. There were pepperoni, pineapple, sausage and cheese pizzas. I however, ate the cheese pizza, which tasted superb. The crust was my favorite part because it was crispy and delicious. I had no complains whatsoever. The food was simply exceptional.

It all began in San Lorenzo, Rome one of the most breath taking cities in the world. I was captivated by its beautiful resorts, buildings and arts. I knew it couldn’t get any better than this. The people were so warm and friendly towards me, almost like they were my own family. I visited the Uno e Bino and I had the Parmesan Soufflé. It was so light, yet so delicious. I knew I had to get a second serving because it was that well done. I met with the chef to compliment him on the food and I could tell that he was a very stand up guy. The waiters and the chef told me to come again and believe me I will be going there again!
On the second day of my food adventure, I visited Casiano's in San Jose Del Cabo. When I got there it was late in the afternoon and the sun was setting. The view astounded me and in that moment I wished I could live there forever. As I entered the restaurant the waiter pointed me to a table on the outside deck. There were palm trees everywhere and in my opinion, that made Casiano's more welcoming and cozy. When the waiter gave me my menu, I ordered right away because I was starving and I needed food! I ordered the spontaneous Cuisine, which consisted of seafood. There were different types of fish and shrimps and on the side there were fruits. The meal was delightful and when I finished my tummy was extremely full. The food was perfect, I had no complains at all. Bravo, Casiano's!
Next, my friends tagged along on my mini get away to Barcelona. Oh my, I had heard so many intriguing stories about this lovely city. As we awaited our arrival, I sipped on champagne, which was not very good, but the chocolate tasted like heaven. It was only the best of course, Godiva! Finally, after fifteen hours of traveling, we made it. The first thought on all of our minds were food. So my comrades and I hit town in search of a superb restaurant! The restaurant we discovered was Casa Leopoldo. It appeared like one of those houses in the fairytales, spacious and extravagant. It was exactly what we desired. As the waiter approached, he gave us a basket of tomato and garlic bread. It was absolutely amazing! We repeatedly ordered baskets of the delicious garlic bread, that when it was time to have dinner, we were already stuffed. So we decided to take it back to our hotel because there was no way my friends were going to throw it away.
Our fourth hot spot was Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. Beaches, beaches, beaches, that was the most important thing that was on my mind, well with the exception of food. The drinks were refreshing and tasty. After having a little fun in the sun (playing volleyball), my friends and I were exhausted so we went to grab a bite at La Yola. I should probably tell you that La Yola is my best friend’s grandmother's place and the food is flavorful! I ordered my favorite dish of all, the spicy tuna tartar with guacamole relish. I guarantee that you will love this dish because the tuna is appetizing! Then, when we were finished stuffing our faces, my friends went swimming and I went to my hotel room and took a long nap.
On the last day of my food expedition, I dragged my friends along to the Virgin Islands. You haven't seen a magnificent place until you have seen the U.S Virgin Islands. The beaches are alluring and the water is just so calm and relaxing. I take it all in because I know I wouldn't be back here for a long while. I visited the Zozo's ristorante because I heard it was the best restaurant in town. When I entered through the front door, I knew that I had to try something different. My sister had told me that the mahimahi was great, so I thought I would have that. Let me tell you that the mahimahi was everything my sister described and even some more. The pistachio crust was the perfect topping of all. The arugula salad made it all the better because it was fresh and tastey.
So it is day six and my food adventure has come to an end. It was a wonderful journey that i will never forget. I hope that you will all visit these places atleast once in your lifetime because it is definitely worth it. Goodbye!

Red Lobster

Let me start off by saying that red lobster is my favorite restaurant. There service is great, (at least I think so) and there food is exquisite. Red lobster is mostly a seafood restaurant, but they do have other dishes for chicken or beef lovers. Personally, I am a seafood lover and every time I go to any red lobsters I come out very satisfied. Some of their dishes are garlic cream shrimp, wood grilled pecan- crusted shrimp, and you can even create your own feast. How fantastic is that? My favorite dish at red lobster is their salmon. It's so succulent and delicious. Believe me you will want to savor every single bite. Another thing I love about red lobster is their bread. Oh- my- goodness, their bread is delicate and cheesy. You might just end up eating the entire basket. That is how enjoyable they are. In my opinion, I would rate this restaurant a 5/5.
