Talent Development

Dear fans of my blog,
First off, I want to tell you what a good summer I had.   Not only did I have fun , but I also rested.  One thing that I didn’t do (but wish I had) was spend more time with ruby.  It feels so good to be at school because i mised it here.
Anyhow, I just watched a Men in Black video clip and it was really funny.  I couldn’t believe that Will Smith was so funny. Looking at Mr. Lahana’s “MOST IMPORTANT THINGS” list it’s pretty clear this video was talking about #1.  This is because they were looking for the best.
On #4 of Mr. Lahana’s “MOST IMPORTANT THINGS” list he talks about finding what you love. Besides texting, Facebooking, and drooling over my favorite star but, I’m into some serious stuff.  Stuff that not everyone’s into– like old movies. It’s true!  I could spend hours WATCHING THIS and time just vanishes.  If you gave me access to a computer with a camera, Garageband, Scratch, Photoshop or 3D design software I would make a software that showed off my talent at computer.  But you know, I’m not perfect at my talent yet.  By the end of the year I hope I can watch the whole movie .  Well, that’s all I have time to write for now– see you soon!
