Picking Classes

High school is a time to be enjoyed and lived out. Expect every year around the time of the 3rd quarter. Course selection is truly worldwide devastation for students in high school. Not only to you have to pick based on what you can handle and enjoy. You basically have to pick based at schools your looking at. Not only that but you balance your choice class selection based on what you want to be when your older or what degree you want. What high school student 100% knows what they want to be. It really defeats the purpose of living highschool out as much as possible.

This time is extremely stressful for literally everyone in the building. Teachers have to pick carefully where they believe a student should be placed. Their request on what classes you should or shouldn’t take are valued to the students. The councilors have to work with teachers, students, and parents. Everyone knows parents can be a piece of work. While this is going on sol’s and AP tests bring even more stress for everyone.

My Experience with Olive Garden

Olive Garden is a chain of an ‘Italien’ restaurant. While their garlic bread is delicious I find that literally, every other experience with their menu is the exact opposite.

After going to little Italy in NYC, id say im the Alan Richman of Italian food. He’s a famous food critic. Now I’ve eaten at Olive Garden plenty of times, but I have some moments that stick out to me. A little back story before hand. My family and I don’t usually go out to eat but when we do its something simple and easy. Usually, in the case that we do go out to eat its to celebrate a little something. For example, Good grade, good sports game, or family gathering. Let the storytime begin. . .

Around 9th-grade 2nd quarter my family and I decided to go out for my approved of grades. Olive Garden wasn’t my choice but I have been once before, so there were high hopes. We arrived and got seated. First wrong in this restaurant was that they were obviously short staffed. We waited almost 30 minutes for our drinks. My mom was already fed up, but we decided to stay for the heck of it. At this point we are about to order. This waiter, the poor guy, was working so many tables but he still didn’t have the need to be as rude as he was. While everyone had their choice of food already, I was a bit indecisive about what I wanted. By the time it was my turn I really had no clue. When he asked me for the third time I didn’t respond, and his response was so harsh. Being so rushed I picked the simplest thing. Mac and Cheese. He made a snarky comment but I don’t really remember what he said. The food comes and I was all excited. Yea, that was brought down real quick. My mac and cheese was cold and almost tasted like the box mac and cheese you get at the grocery store. Then my sisters chicken wasn’t cooked all the way through. I’m almost 99.9% sure that’s a health code violation. We asked this waiter to fix this and he goes, and I quote “Its fine. Just eat it.” He walked away.

Moral of the story is Olive Garden needs to get it together. Maybe I went on a bad day for the restaurant but that is still unacceptable. We complained to the manager and he offered to redo our orders but thankfully we left.

The Enjoyment Of Makeup

Although my overall blogs are not beauty related. Makeup deserves at least one blog post on my blogs. The love and fun you can get from messing around with makeup is amazing. I don’t wear makeup regularly, Nor do I wear a lot. It is still a lot of fun even when you are doing the simplest of things.

I’m no makeup artist but with the access to youtube and youtube makeup tutorials, I’ve learned a lot. The satisfaction of blending the eyeshadows together and pulling the look together with lipstick is an enjoyment. I find watching makeup videos and trying to recreate them is also an enjoyment. I feel so proud of myself afterward. Hands down making up your own look with wild colors is so much fun.

Makeup can be used for many things. While some girls use it to cover something up a lot of girls use it for the creative fun you can have with it. James Charles, a youtube MUA (Makeup artist), shows off all his creative and fantastic makeup looks. He was even able to make a make a pallet with Morphe, a makeup brand.

There are so many opportunities with makeup. Not only can you have fun with it, but you can also become a professional makeup artist and do this for your living. That to me sounds amazing.

NYC!

Recently I went to NYC! Let me tell you, it was amazing! The air was slightly polluted and always crowded but besides that it was really enjoyable. Today’s story time will be about how amazingly weird NYC is.

Let’s begin with the traffic. We almost got in an accident about 20 times. We were only there for 2 days and half the time we were walking. My feet are still sore might I add. People are so aggressive and rude. Even if there is no space they continue to try and cut you off. Half the time people weren’t even worried about hitting you. They were more worried about getting past you.

The weirdest part about the traffic is you’d think people out of traffic would rude too, but everyone is so nice. Everyone is friendly and so helpful. Half the time if you look lost and someone notices, even without asking they will try and help you navigate the city. We lost our hotel card in a store and I swear more customers then employees helped find that thing. Like how sweet!

While I don’t want to live in New York City forever I definitely think it is an experience to live there for a year. Plus their bagels are splendid.
