It is still the same answer,a tortoise, because they are slow like me and eat the same foods as me. They eat carrots, lettuce, maybe some kale, and other leafy vegetables.

Now to change it up, what was my favorite animal owning. That is easy, it was Priscilla the tortoise. My grandfather gave it to me as a pet when I was very young. I took her for walks and fed her tomatoes, lettuce, and other leafy vegetables. One day, she got into our utility room and was never seen again. I should have gotten her a cage, or at least a box. Priscilla the tortoise was able to roam freely around the house, which was a mistake. I should have confined the tortoise and I could have had Priscilla for more years than I did have her. I was sad to lose her but I learned a lesson, have a cage or a box at least for the tortoise. Thank you for reading.

There are numerous ways I communicate online, such as Facebook, Instagram, AOL email, Gmail, Jetpack, Yelp sometimes, X, Snapchat, tick tock. Those are the main ones. I can sometimes be inidated by many ways to communicate online. My job doordash communicates with me online, such as the customer through the app. They let me know where to put their food, or give me more accurate directions, or to ask for more hot sauce packets, which every time I ask for more, the restaurant is like the packets are in the bag. Plus we can never open the bags and check because the customer doesn’t want us breathing on their food. So that is a strict no no for us.

So with many ways to communicate with each other, I just find ones I like, like Jetpack, Facebook, and Instagram. Those are my favorite. I am sure there will be others to add to this list sooner or later. Thank you for reading.

I think it was back in 2006, when I drove to Los Angeles from Tucson. More specifically, Hollywood. I went for a weekend trip, while I was still in college. I did not do anything very interesting. I stayed at a Day’s Inn and ate salad at McDonald’s. It was very reasonable back then. Now, I don’t think McDonald’s has salads, but back then they did. Go figure, it was a long time ago. I also went to a Guitar Music store, because there, they would have a drum set setup for anyone to play, so while I was staying in Hollywood or Los Angeles I would go there to drum. It was a great time ,to listen to all the guitar players do amazing things on their guitars. I also went to Gold’s gym, while I was there, which was nicer than the one in Tucson. I received a weekend pass from my Gold’s gym so I could work out for free. It was a great thing. I really didn’t do any sight seeing. It was only for a weekend, then I drove back to Tucson and that was that. Now I pray the fires in Los Angeles will end soon, before any other places in Los Angeles county burn down.

The item I loved when I was a child was the Atari setup I had. Atari was the first gaming system I could plug into my TV and play games. I had many games, such as PAC-MAN, Space Invaders, chess, tanks, etc. It was not very good graphics, but I still had fun playing it. I would play most of the games with a joystick, so they only took one hand to play them.  The thumb could press the button on the top of the joystick 🕹️ (to shoot things or to accelerate) and your arm and hand could move the character on the TV. So it was good for me because I only had one hand due to the injury I sustained. I had acquired the Atari before the injury, but it was good it could be played with one hand. Everyday, after I finish my homework from school. I would play the Atari.

Now one day, my family and I moved and my mom had sold my Atari for the move. I was livid, but I soon moved on, but even to this day. I remember how much fun I had with that Atari, blowing things up, such as the opponents tank, or racing cars. It was a lot of fun. Thank you for reading.

From the time I was young, I always had a fascination with music. When I was in junior high I was in band playing snare drum and bass drum. It was a lot of fun. Then, the injury happened (shot in the head) and I could no longer be in band. Until, my junior year of highschool I played in the pit with the marching band. I couldn’t play the xylophones, but I could play the chimes and the bass drum. Our band got chosen to go to Disneyland which was a fun trip. We played out music in front of judges and we did pretty well.

So music has always been in my life for a long time. Fast forward , many years and I still write lyrics everyday and play drums and sing every day, so I guess that is my mission to be a musician. I have written many lyrics about the injury such as burning fire.

The memory of that night

I got shot in the head

Burns in sight

Should’ve been dead

But I live to fight

another day

As the anger ignites in my mind

Burning Fire burning Fire it’ll, never die, til I’m dead

Sparks fly

Anger ignites

Burned by that night

Flaming torches soar high

Scorching smoke rise

Up to the sky

Burning Fire burning Fire it’ll never die til I’m dead, til I’m gone away

Devastation of life

Falling over in the fire

For nothing

But the aching hate

In his mind

Burning Fire it’ll never die til I’m dead til I’m gone away burning Fire
