While reading From the Barrio to the Academy‚ by Laura Rendon‚ I made a couple of connections between my journey and that of the author.

I have just finished reading Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead and if I do say so myself‚ this book was a very interesting read. I have to praise Miss.

I also admire her addition of “Dhamphirs” to the vampire genre and the names that she endowed these mystical creatures‚ like “Moroi” and “Strigoi”. I commend her various additions to the history of vampires

However‚ what truly made this accomplishment splendid was how fulfilled I felt‚ and all the effort that led up to it. To take it back a few years before‚ I was a struggling kid. Maybe it was puberty‚ maybe it was the environment I grew up in‚ but

Now on that television reality show it teaches everyone about the pros on surviving in the wilderness and now all everyone could just listen about the cons on surviving in the wilderness. Surviving in the wilderness is an idiotic thing to do because people die from animals‚ poisonous plants‚ and dumb decisions people make out there. Say if someone sees a bear and the bear goes near them and they wanted a photo for their Snapchat
