After highschool

After graduating from high school, I am going to take a year or so off from school and work and finish my Apprenticeship Program as JR. Chef at Campo Marina. I plan to get a vehicle and travel with my Aunt and Uncle down to there vacation home in Arizona for three months. Afterwards leaving with them to go to Africa for six months. Later when returning to Canada I haven't decided if i should move down to vancouver and go to Art Institute of Vancouver where I have been accepted or to go to the east coast to the navy and study my culinary schooling while cooking on a navy ship traveling around the world. As for the moment I am just taking life as it come to me. I am not sure where I will end up, for now that is a mystery.

Award Winners

In my opinion I believe that Eminem should have won because he himself is an amazing artist. Unlike other artists that make only three or so albums and then run out of stuff to sing about, Eminem keeps coming back with new music and new albums. Each album has its own tone for the songs. No album is the same, which is pretty amazing because thats not exactly an easy thing to do. Eminem doesn't just sing about the typical things such as "girls or drugs" he sings about real things like abuse or his childhood and how he doesn't want that life for his daughter. Many of his songs are him singing about his daughter Haley and how she is everything to him.
Eminem has a very versatile voice that makes him suitable with many other artists such as Pink, Rhianna, Dido, 50-cent, many other large rapers or even artists like Taylor Swift, which was auto tuned but still sounded amazing.
These reasons is why I think Eminem should have won the Album of the Year Award.

Doritoes

Just at the floor starts to shake and the ceiling crumbles to the ground both men stand in fear waiting to hear the winner from the woman with the pink hair.
The woman rises into the air. Wind blowing around her, a storm forming just outside.
Looking down at the two men, first at one, then the other.
"THE WINNER IS..." yelling at the top of her lungs.
Anxiously the men wait to her there chip declared the winner.
"BUFFALO WINGS AND RANCH!"
The man holding the onion ring and ketchup chip falls to the ground in dismay.
Crying on the his knees, the floor drops from underneath him. Getting rid of him and the onion ring and ketchup chips all together.
THE END.

This is a picture of "Immaculate Conception Basilica", in Mazatlan Mexico. It is one of the oldest and most beautiful chapels in Mazatlan.
During Christmas break, when my two friends, Jamie and Mike, and myself went down to Mexico, we decided to go into the old town. Right in the center of town was this big, beautiful chapel. There were many people around it observing it's beauty just like us. We walked up the front stairs and toward the door. Walking in to the chapel there was colorful painting on the walls and ceiling and semi-large windows near the roof letting in light. There were many people sitting on the benches and a priest up at the front saying a prayer. We all sat down and decided to listen to the priest speak soft words in spanish.
I looked down the isle to see the front of the church I noticed a casket just below the priest. In awe, I nudged Jamie on the arm and pointed to the front of the building. I knew exactly when he saw the casket because his eyes widened. "Ohmigod! Kayla, we are not supposed to be in here"
I started to laugh and new he was right, but it was anything but the right time to leave. Just as the the priest said "take a moment in silence" Jamie stood up and the bench made a loud creaky noise. At this point I was really starting to laugh so I knew I had to get out of there as well. Standing up I grabbed Mike by his shirt and said that we needed to go. Mike, not knowing what was going on, followed us out the door.
Outside Jamie and I explained that it was a funeral. Mike in disbelief kept saying "no it wasn't!" while Jamie and I laughed.
Walking down the stairs from the church, we saw the herse that was there for the funeral. Jamie and I both looked at Mike only to here him say "WHAT THE HELL!!! we were just in a mexican funeral!".
