If money was not an issue.

List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter.

The three jobs I would do if money was not an issue.

First, I would go to all the open mics in Tucson. I would perform in front an audience with my shaker and I sing, not great but passible. This is a great passion of mine to perform. I used to do it when I worked as a Teacher’s assistant. I have to do Door dash, which is fun and helps me pay for my car, but it would be great to go again and perform.

Second, I would work at a day care and work with the children. I like to do arts and crafts a little and I like to play games with them such as cards, and candyland is cool also.

Third, I would work at a homeless shelter. I could attend meetings with the people there or talk and provide resources to people, such as how to get on Social security, or how to get a food box . Or I could even be a listening ear and listen to people’s concerns.

In conclusion, I discussed the three jobs I would do if money was not an issue. They are going to open mics, work at a daycare with children. I would also like to work at a homeless shelter. Thank you for reading this.

God is forever

What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?

The aspect of my cultural heritage that I am most proud of or interested in is my love for God.

I am American, Italian, Spanish, and Mexican so I was raised Roman Catholic. Both of my parents were Roman Catholic, so I grew up praying Rosaries and today I still pray Rosaries. We also used to go to church, but now I don’t go to church because of the many priests sexually assaulting little boys. I do not condon to that so I will never allow myself to attend church again, that is my decision.

I love God and Jesus Christ and I pray my Rosary everyday, but I can’t go back to the church knowing what some of those priests did to little boys and possibly little girls that is sick. The little kids are in the confession rooms to get their sins absolved and a priest molests them that is terrifying. There is no reason for such crude behavior. I know they all got charged, but there might still be some of them out there, which is horrible. Those poor kids who went through that, it is awful.

Another thing I am proud of from my cultural heritage is my love of Mexican and Italian food such as tacos, enchiladas, tamales, spaghetti, meatballs, and lasagna. It is all really good and when we have family gatherings we all feast on tacos, enchiladas, tortillas and maybe some beans it is good.

The family gatherings are another part of my heritage not so much now but when I was younger. We all used to gather at my grandma’s house and sit around and listen to my grandpa play Mexican music on the guitar and sing. Some of us would sing along with my grandpa. It was a good time. He has passed away God rest his soul, but I will always remember him for that. He was a kindred spirit.

In conclusion; I discussed my cultural heritage, which is my love for God for most, my religion which is Roman Catholic. I pray Rosaries and I don’t go to church. My love of Italian and Mexican food and the family gathering around my grandpa’s guitar. Those were good times.

What brands do you associate with?

Introduction:

In this article I will discuss brands that I associate with. Brands are companies that make a certain item. I associate with a lot of brands from the smartphone I type on, to what I wear, to what I eat, to what drink, and to what drums I play. Everything has a brand.

I am typing on a Google 6a smartphone, which is a brand. I also own a Samsung 10e smartphone, which is another brand.

I wear a lot of brands such as Levi’s pants, Guess shirts, Nike shoes, or Reebok shoes, and Tommy Hilfiger shirts.

I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. The one brand that sticks out is Dole bananas. Also, Dole makes salads so there is another brand. I eat out a lot so brands such as Popeyes, chicken sandwich, Dunkin donuts, coffee, Subway, sandwiches, and Philbertoes,burritos, and Taco Bell, tacos, Suchi Cho, suchi, and Sheri Punjab, Tandori Chicken.

I drink bottled water which also comes with it’s brands such as Sam’s club water, Fiji water, Smart water, Evian water, Core water, and Iceland water. They are all good brands of water.

My drums also have a brand ,it is Tama. My cymbals also have a brand ,Sabian . I also have a Zildjian hi hat. I play my drum set with Pro Mark Drum sticks. It is a lot of fun.

In conclusion, Everything has a brand it is the company that made the product. I deal with a lot of brands, such as my smartphones, what I wear, to what I eat, to what I drink, and finally to my drums. If you do anything with a certain item, I am sure it will have a brand.

Be a fighter instead of a sleeper.

What could you do more of?

What I could do more of. I could get out of the house and work more or just take a walk.

I am disabled from being shot in the head with a gun. I make too many excuses not to go on walks or do more work. I walk with a limp and my left arm doesn’t function so I can only use my right hand. See I don’t know my own potential in how I can work more. I would love to make money and possibly work more outside the house but I am limited in what I can do.

I should probably write more because that is my passion. When I get a good cup of coffee in me the words just flow out a lot easier. I should be able to turn my passion of writing into a job which would be cool. Then I would have a job and then I could go on walks when I felt like it.

I play music maybe that could be something too. I play drums and write lyrics which is something I do every day. I need to do it more often possibly. That is a passion also I don’t have a great voice but I sing too. I had a lot of bad things happen to me so I need to get them out and music is the way I do that and writing.

In conclusion, I need to write more and write lyrics more maybe one day it will turn into a job or something I need to have faith. Thank you for reading this

One basket,

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

The best advice I ever got was don’t put your eggs in one basket. It means don’t count on one way to do something. In this life it is much better to have multiple ways to get to the same result. It is much better if you or I have many different options to get to the same thing.

Such as life, if you are holding onto one option and it falls through then you have nothing. Take this advice for multiple things in your life, having many choices is much better than one choice, just in case that one thing falls through, then you can move on to other options, now this is better than the other way of doing things.

The coffee experience

What things give you energy?

Coffee gives me energy. I can drink it all day or night. I just take little sips here or there all day or night. This may sound gross but I drink it black because it doesn’t have the sugar effect, which I come crashing down and get tired.

I usually drink it in the afternoon, where I will have a big cup of coffee.

Then I have like two other cups of coffee in the refrigerator and I sip on them all through the week, until they are gone.

Drinking coffee makes me more creative because it speeds up my brain maybe dopamine. I feel excited and I feel good like I want to accomplish a lot. It lasts only a couple hours though. I can go to sleep on coffee. All I have to do is brush my teeth and then I nod off to sleep.

Another food that gives me energy is salad and apples. Salads wake up my weary mind and make me focus on the task at hand.

I cut the apple in half. I eat one half and go back to sleep. While the other half of the apple amps me up and keeps me awake for a long time, especially if I drink coffee with it.

In conclusion, all three of these items give me energy so I can write, play drums, sing, read, and overall have a productive life, especially working too. I would be lost without coffee, apples,and salad.

Topics of interests

Which topics would you like to be more informed about?

Which topics would I like to be more informed about.

I would like to know more about work at home jobs, without having to have a day job. Sites like Winter and Respondent need me to have a day job. I don’t have one right now. I was working for a little while but I lost my car which it is hard to do that job without a car. I am planning to get another car but it might take a little bit. So working from home is the best idea right now.

Maybe a job that pays better than doing surveys. I always get kicked off those surveys sites. Plus I maybe limited because I don’t have a laptop. I only have smartphones. Hopefully if there is anyone like me on this site it would be awesome.

Life w/o music

What would your life be like without music?

Life without music would be boring. I deum, play shaker, and sing and song write so if all of that disappeared it would be very disappointing to me.

I write lyrics every day, just in a notebook sometimes I can read what I wrote,but most of the time they are hard for me to read. The ideas are there that’s why I write lyrics everyday. I play drums everyday, which helps a lot with anger because I was shot in the head and now I am disabled. So I have to have an outlet to express my anger. So if there was no music I would be very angry too.

Music just makes me happy. I can be in the worst mood put on some music and it cheers me up quickly.

I listen to all sorts of music such as, 2pac to heavy metal, to jazz and r and b, Alternative, if all that music went away it would be a very sad moment.

In conclusion, I don’t care how old I get music will always be my true love from making music to listening to music it will always be with me because I don’t think anyone can take music away. It is a billion dollar industry. So I’m glad it is not going anywhere. But if it did I would not live anymore.

So lucky,

How do you celebrate holidays?

I celebrate the holidays by spending time around my younger sister. We give each other presents. She gets me a hat or maybe a scarf. I give her money because I never know what to get her. I think money is a good gift.

We eat dinner together, such as turkey, ham and pot roast. We also eat mashed potatoes with gravy and some macaroni salad, potato salad and of course green leafy salad.

Then we watch a Christmas story and laugh and have a good time. Then she goes home and that is how I spend my holidays.

Spaghetti for dinner

Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail.

Well a long time ago, when I was in highschool, I was going to cook spaghetti for my sister and I. I put water in a pot and waited for it to boil. Once it boiled, I put the spaghetti in the pot and waited eight minutes for the spaghetti to get tender. Then I put the strainer in the sink and dumped the spaghetti in the strainer, but once the spaghetti was in the strainer some of the boiling water got on my hand and burnt the heck out of my hand. The water had given me a third degree burn.

There were bubbles forming on my hand that had turned into blisters. It was quite painful. My sister called my mom and she took me to the hospital and they gave me a prescription for a cream ointment that cleared it up in a few days.

I never forget that because I was not using an oven mitt when I was pouring the spaghetti into the strainer. I was using a towel which is the problem because the hot water can soak threw the towel which gave me third degree burns.

So now I use oven mitts on both hands or else I go and get spaghetti from a restaurant because some things are better left to the professionals.
