My Crazy Trip to San Diego!

On Friday the 11th I went on this crazy trip to San Diego. It started off with me leaving school and going to basketball practice. Basketball practice was with my new team THE WIZARDS.
The practice was easy, I'm just so glad the Cecilia is in the team as well. When I was practicing my mom went to get a new car for the trip that fits 7 people. Since my family will be going with me to San Diego as well.

 From practice I went home and packed my clothes and accessories in my suitcase. Since I haven't done my homework I had to bring it with me as well. The whole reason for this trip was my R2H teams has 4 games in San Diego. So I needed to bring my basketball and basketball stuff as well. Once we finished packing and getting dressed for cold weather we headed out around 5:30.

 There was so much traffic!!! My mom had a difficult time driving the car which slowed us down more. We needed to be at the airport to pick my family up at 7pm. We arrived at LAW but my family hadn't arrived yet so we waited at a gas station. They called us at 7:30 pm saying they were outside waiting for us at American Airlines. We then picked them up, and let me say I was happy to see my favorite cousins and uncle again. My uncle and his wife brought there kids.
Sofia is a little seven year old girl who is kind and loving. Her sister Carla is 15 years old she is so cool and fun to hang out with. They also have a baby brother Leonel who is 2 years old he is the cutest baby ever.

  From the airport we went to my tia's house. She made us rice and beans for dinner. Since it was 10 something when we arrived there is got tired. So I ate food then went to my tia's room to rest on her bed for a while. Eventually we left like around 11 something and headed to San Diego. The rest of the trip was pitch black for me. Since I had fallen asleep...

 We finally got to the hotel around 1:30am. The hotel checked us in around 2:30. My room was very beautiful and comfortable. The bed was cold and soft perfect for sleeping. So at 3 lights went out for me. For the next two days would be a lot of basketball and running.

My trip to Las Vegas!

This week I went to Las Vegas with my family!
It was super fun! We took a limo for a ride all over Vegas. We even so downtown Vegas it was pretty and rustic. We then stopped at Paris and went shopping and went on the Eiffel Tower. The hotel I stayed in was New York New York where I went on theach roller coaster five times. It gave me a huge headache. I bought nice things at NY NY as well. My family and I ate are dinner, lunch, and breakfast at the Luxor and Excalibur.
This trip was 3 days and 2 nights! I enjoyed it and can't wait to come back. My favorite things was watching the Fountain Show at the Bella Giovanni and the Rollercoaster.

D.I.Y Henna Ink/My Henna

I got this henna on my arm that I absolutely love! Becoming so attached to the Henna makes me want to make more. So in this blog link I will be showing you step by step how to make your own Henna ink.

Items:
.bowl
.fresh henna powder
.lemon juice
.sugar
.tea tree oil
.plastic wrap
.zip lock bag
.olive oil
.rubbing alcohol
.mild soap
.tape
.scissors
.gloves for handling henna ink

The steps:
1. Measure 1/4 of sifted henna powder into a bowl.

2. Add 1/4 cup of lemon juice while stirring.

3. Stir in 1/2 tsp of sugar and 1/2 tsp of tea tree oil.

4. Cover henna with think plastic wrap.
5. Once you have finished and the Henna is set put it into its applicator.

6. Clean your skin before placing the Henna ink there.
 You have finished making the Henna ink! If you do place it on you make sure to not smudge the ink. It takes at least 2 hours to dry that's the time when the blackish green stuff starts to fall of leaving a light brown henna tattoo.

This is mine:

2. When the design is finished.

3. After 2 hours(black stuff has fell off)

The Henna can last from 8-16 days. It all depends on how you treat it. Enjoy!

Halloween Ideas♥

Happy Halloween! It's finally came the scariest time of the year. Most people have plans on this creepy day and others don't. So for this blog I will be giving ideas on what to do on Halloween and some things most people do on this day.

1. SWEETS: To be honest this is the only thing I like about halloween. Eating sugar until your stomach hurts. You can eat the basic candy from the store or bake pie and make creepy cookies.

2. CREEPY SONGS: Halloween is fun and all but the thing that makes people chiver the most and feel excited is the music. So what's Halloween without creepy songs? These are my personal favorite top five halloween songs:

1. Thriller

2. Monster Mash

3. Ghostbusters 

4. Superstition

5. This is halloween

3. COSTUMES: On Halloween it's a tradition to dress up as anything you want. Something scary, sad, romantic, funny, dumb, casual, etc.

Most people get dressed up to Trick or Treat or go to parties. So get creative and be anything you dare to dream of....

4. TRICK OR TREATING: This is when kids, teens, or adults go from house to house saying "Trick or Treat" asking for a treat or threatening them mischief if not given a treat. If you do decide to Trick or Treat be safe and watch out for serial killers and cars. As well check the candy before eating it.

5. HAUNTED HOUSES: If you are a person who likes to get scared then I recommend to go to a haunted house with loved ones or have your own haunted house. A haunted is house is tend to be a scary torn down house where it's suppose to be full of spirits. 

6. SCARY MOVIE: I hate scary movies! I usually get nightmares after watching them. But other people enjoy them so I think it would be scary if you watched a scary movie on halloween! Enjoy I know I wont.... You can eat popcorn and candy while watching the movie and turn off the lights for affect.

7. PUMPKIN CARVING: This is so fun! I love carving faces into my pumpkins and taking the seeds out to make a yummy snack. You can light a candle and put it inside the pumpkin so you can see it at night and it will look creepy. 

Well that's it for my Halloween Blog!

John Green

 My favorite author is John Green! He is an amazing writer I never fall asleep when reading his books. He writes young-adult fiction and romance books. Now to tell you a little about John Green..... He was born August 24, 1977 in Indianapolis, Indiana and he is now currently 38. John Green is a author, critic, and a Web host (check out his you tube videos). He is married to Sarah Green and has two children. Alice Green is his daughter and Henry Green is his son. He also has a brother named Hank.

        Books he wrote:

        1. Looking For Alaska

        2. An Abundance of Katherine's

        3. Paper Towns (I am currently reading)

        4. Let It Snow

        5. Will Grayson, Will Grayson

        6. The Fault in Our Stars (my favorite)

 The #1 reason why I love John Green is because he writes the truth. For example in his books he always writes something that relates to the world. 

  "Nothing ever happens like you imagine it will."

I HAVE A COLD!❄

Don't you hate being sick? This blog will give you ideas on what to do when you are sick and how to feel better. Enjoy!

Resting/being comfortable: When you have a cold your nose seems to get stuffy. So the best sleeping position is having your head elevated with pillows. Make sure to get a lot of rest and get in comfty PJ's. If you want you can make a Fort with blankets and pillows and decorate it with lights and stuffed animals. As well a hot bath is good for you so you can let some steam off.

Fluids: When you have a cold it's important to drink a lot of hot tea and water. Make sure to rehydrate and gargle the fluids to ease your throat.

Medicine/ homegoods that help/ unstuff nose:

Make sure to blow your nose the right way. And don't get rough tissues and don't make it too soft make sure your nose likes the tissue. Cough drops are miracle workers they taste good and ease your cough. Honey is amazing it helps your throat a lot. Medicine is very good all you have to do is go to your local pharmacy and get some pills or liquid medicine. For coughing and stuffy nose and if your like me some headache medicine.

BORED? Well I know that I'm super bored! Trying to feel better and can't find anything to do well then to get ideas read the rest of my blog.

1. Catch up with school work, study, plan your goals, get organized.

2. Play board games or Internet games.

3. Text friends, browse the internet, listen to your favorite music, watch TV, read a book, NETFLIX, browse a magazine.

4. Draw or polish nails (girly stuff)

5. Cook then eat! (Yummy)

Well let me just say that I feel much better. My blog really helps you get ideas when you have a cold. Enjoy the Fall time!
