Friendship Lasts Forever

Tuesday, 28. September 2010 8:04

Something that definitely means the most to me would be my friends. Friends are very important to me and are a very big part of my life! I am usually surrounded by my friends at most times, which I love! They are always there for me when I need them, which is thankfully not a crazy amount, but they have been there for me in very hard times that I have experienced in my life and they were great. They listen when I speak, which can definitely be a hard thing to do sometimes for people! I do not know what I would do if I did not have my friends in my life anymore.

Home for Christmas

Saturday, 25. September 2010 7:02

My plans for the holidays involve traveling back to my hometown, which is in Upstate New York, which is not that far from where I am living now, about two and a half hours north! I have not been home for months so it will be good to see my family, which involve my mom, step-dad, sister, my dad, step-mom and step-brother, who I have not seen in a long time. I plan on staying for about five days, which will be a nice getaway from where I am living right now. I am excited for Christmas and exchanging gifts with my family.

Volleyball reception

I enjoy doing a lot of things for fun but one of the things that I absolutely love doing is playing volleyball. I have been on a recreational team for about three years and I hope to keep doing it for a long time! It is great, the bonding experience that I get to have with my teammates. We are all pretty good, which causes us to win most of the games that we play! The best thing is when we all go out after our games to the local bar and hang out and celebrate! Even when we lose, we still go out because it is still a good time!

Fire and safety & Extinguishers

Saturday, 18. September 2010 17:56

Powder fire extinguishers are of great importance in modern life. Modern technology introduces different materials in for house-hold and industrial purposes from resins and polymers and any kind of fire that emerges from such materials are much more powerful than ordinary fires and releases excessive bad gases and carbon which are much dangerous to the environment, human beings and even micro-organisms. There are normally 5 types of a discount powder fire extinguisher to combat different types of fires. 1) Class A:-For fires involving paper, Wood, Cardboard, clothes and plastics. 2) Class B:-For controlling fires of highly inflammable liquids and gases. 3) Class:-To extinguish electrical fires 4) Class:-Exclusively for fighting fires which includes flammable metals Magnesium, titanium and Sodium. 5) Class K:-For oil fires, mostly used in modern commercial kitchens. All these types of extinguishers are more productive in the hands of trained personnel.

The Internet is Where It’s At!

Friday, 17. September 2010 5:00

I mostly like to shop online for items, both for myself year round and then for all of my Christmas shopping as well! I find that it is easier than going to the shops and being surrounded by tons of people that are shopping in the stores as well, especially tourist that come to New York City and have no idea how to navigate through the city and/or the subway system! I prefer to sit down at my computer and search online through everything and buy stuff that way. It is easier and more convenient for me. I love shopping for rare items that way too, items that you usually can not find in stores!

Protection for Home

Tuesday, 14. September 2010 18:00

With the advent of advanced fire fighting system activated by sensors, the use of fire extinguishers is confined to homes and smaller fire hazard areas. Fires which are generally caused by electrical short circuit and combustible materials are put out by cheap co2 fire extinguishers. Its use in residential places is still prevalent in most cases. It is easy to operate, maintain, train everybody and more importantly affordable. The carbon dioxide and dry chemical powder are the normal materials that are filled inside extinguishers to put out the fires. Even today the fire extinguishers act as first aid on noticing fire as its impact is very important in restricting the spread of fire. It helps in preventing the loss of human lives and destruction of properties.

Weather Conflictions

Monday, 13. September 2010 4:59

I am conflicted about winter because, I do enjoy seeing the snow fall, getting prepared for Christmas and warming up next to a fire with a steaming cup of hot chocolate! However, I hate going outside in the cold, so I try and wrap myself up as much as possible with a large winter jacket, a hat, a scarf and thick gloves. I also hate the feeling of when Christmas is over and there are no holidays until St. Patrick’s Day! I do enjoy winter a lot more than summer though because at least in the winter, it’s easier to get warm then in the summer, where it is impossible to get cool!

Something in the Way She Moves

Thursday, 9. September 2010 3:57

My day is going great so far even though I didn’t get that much sleep last night because I had some friends over to hang out. But I ended up waking up in time for work and I have been working very hard all day long on a bunch of projects I have to get done before the Christmas Holiday! Then tonight, I am going home to hang out with my roommate and watch our favorite movie, Across the Universe! We have seen it many times but still, it can never get old with us because we love singing along to the Beatles songs!

The People’s Court

Judge Marilyn Milian

Judge Marilyn Milian is the judge on the show The People’s Court. I admire her more than a lot of other TV judges because she is a woman and has made it as far as she has in her field. Becoming a lawyer or judge is mainly a male-dominated field so it is quite the accomplishment. I also admire her because she is very fair and treats everyone the same. She is very blunt, which is sometimes construed as being unkind, but it is really just her honest opinion. She also works with domestic violence victims and does a lot of work in the field, making our world a better place.

Chi-Town

Thursday, 2. September 2010 1:53

I live in Chicago and there are so many cool things to see while you are here. There are a lot of gathering places, like bars and restaurants and every one of them is unique in their own right. But, the thing that I find coolest about Chicago is the public transportation. Public transportation cuts down on emissions, and gets everyone where they need to go for less money. The thing that I find coolest about it is that there aren’t nearly as many deaths from drunken driving accidents because people just take the “el” or one of the busses.
