best author to me

 Graduate with an MBA in Marketing. Carl Weber said he did not even want to be a book writer, what he really wanted to do was own five Mc Donalds haha. He said he could have been very rich. Then he said some were down the line he hit a turning point and realized that his imagination was so real that one day he put it on paper and then just let his mind and pencil work together.  His books are about mainly African Americans and the crazy drama that seems like a dream you could have but the way i see it i take all the drama an separate it one by one. When i look at the all drama one by one i am able to compare that drama to some one i knows life. Weber's book are full of drama but they always have a meaning to it. During English class i heard it was called the the story underneath which meant what was the message of the book/story. Carl's books are very descriptive. They are so descriptive that as your reading you are able to picture the whole setting and then when the climax is there you notice it just like that. I got my friends hooked on these books. Now some of these books us teens should not read but that is only because of certain scenes in the book that you picture. All and all these books are AMAZING AND OUT SPOKEN. I am almost half way through his first series but i know I will start the next series really soon because his books are addictive. Just like with pringles they said you bet you can't eat just one, well when it comes to Carl Weber books I bet you CAN'T read just ONE . !! :)

best author to me..

Carl Weber is one of the best authors alive. That is my personal opinion. Carl Weber is the Owner Of Urban Knowledge Book Stores. He has a education by going to Virginia University and then to Graduate with an MBA in Marketing. Carl Weber said he did not even want to be a book writer, what he really wanted to do was own five Mc Donalds haha. He said he could have been very rich. Then he said some were down the line he hit a turning point and realized that his imagination was so real that one day he put it on paper and then just let his mind and pencil work together.  His books are about mainly African Americans and the crazy drama that seems like a dream you could have but the way i see it i take all the drama an separate it one by one.

Options if Money Was Not One

         Having happiness comes in all different ways. In order for individuals to be happy with themselves they have to have dreams to live up to. Life is a mission that no one wants to fail.
Robert Frosts poem ''After Apple Picking" can make others relate to the literary Elements he uses in his poem to give you a understanding of how he veiws his life. In Frosts poem he described how he thought he had found happiness in his life when at the end poem, he described that he really wanted to do in the end.

       Frost quoted '' I cannot rub the strangeness from my eyes'', that literary element refers to him trying to clear his eyes. I felt that Frost was looking over his life. The readers should have felt that  Frost was looking over his life in disbelief.I felt Frost was trying to reach out to his readers saying '' Is your life really everything you wanted it to be or is it a blurry vision because you have not done what you wanted in life?".

       
         Frost quoted,'' It melted and I let it fall an break.'' I felt that Frost was saying how he let his life past him by and now there is nothing he can do to get back that time and there is no one else to blame but his self. Frost was trying to reach out to his readers and let them know that their life only comes around once so make the best of it. Live your life up to all the goals. Choose a dream that you are going to live up to but do not choose a dream that is IMPOSSIBLE to make a reality.


    If money was no option I believe people would get  along better. If money was no option i think people would finally realize that life is meant to be spent with the ones we love. Greed brings out the ugly in people.Why cant we have a greed in this world for helping others. The world would be a better place if people would learn to love more without money. Now a days money is the number one thing on our earth. People say you money equals life but i say money equals violence, disaster, hatred, jealousy, CHAOS!!. Money does not equal because if that was true all people would be dead. Love equals help, care, saves life, peace. You should act from your heart first if money was not an option , but with money being an option on our earth today  you think and act with your mind but your mind can be a trick and fool you. Sometimes mind is deceiving but the heart loves and love is never lie.

Robert Frost

Car'Veda Windham Mr.Jwarez 1ST PERIOD My opinion if money was no option how would my life be. Robert frost said ''I cannot rub the strangeness from my eyes,''. Robert frost is relating to all readers. Robert frost is speaking about how he has lived a long life. Robert Frost is speaking about how he is looking back over his life n asking himself ''did I really live my life to best that i could''. That is a question that all individuals should ask themselves. Robert Frost message to the people/ readers was that life is flying by and live life to the best that you can because you only live once so make sure your satisfied with what you have a accomplished. You want to have a fulfilling life with no regrets, set goals and make sure you leave no empty spaces in your life. Robert Frost also said '' It melted, and I felt it fall and break'' I feel that Robert Frost was speaking to everyone basically saying that we the people need to grab a hold onto our lives because if we let our lives fall and break then we will regret it later on. We have to have time management because people have to figure out time for fun and time for success. If money was no option then family would be the resource i would rely on. If money was no option I personal believe that the violence would settle down but i know it would not disappear. If i could get people to have self control then all these folks would not be dead or end up in jail and why because of a few dollars. Greed has taken coarse in the world of humanity because of money. Money can really bring the ugly out in people. Robert Frost had a message in his poem ''Apple Picking'' and how he worked a hard life and he still had regrets but now i feel that because money is major issue then that is why people are throwing their lives away. I am sure that people/ individuals know that they only live once so all Robert frost is saying is that take advantage of it but not in the wrong way, live life to the fullest but do not throw life away it is too precious.

Things i could change

If i could change one thing it would be me and my mother's finances. I want to change our finances for the better. The reason I want to change them is because I get tired of seeing my mother struggle with bills every month. I want to change our finances for the better to make my mom have pockets that are always filled. I want to be able to live in house were i do not have to worry about if i am going to have a house to come home to, or am i going to have heat this month or am i going to have water this month or am i going to have a house phone this month. i just want that to change for mom so that she can treat herself to something nice. i want this to change for her so that me and her can do things that we use to, like hang out basically. i want this to change for my mom because i want her to be able to get her or my or willie's medicine from the store. i just want my mom to smile when she says i was able to get this for my daughter. My mother is a strong women because we make it everyday, every month. i love my mom but that is one thing i would change and that is how it would change for my mom.

MY FAVORITE HOBBY My favorite hobby is to play softball. I enjoy playing softball brecause it helps get my anger ouin a llegal way. playing softball is like a phyhsical counciling session. I personal pictutre a person's face that im mad at on the ball when I am up to bat, then when that perfect pitch is thrown to me then I feel they are coming at me and I think that is why I am able to hit the ball so far out. One person I mainly picture on the ball is my biological father because to the best of me I seriously cannot stand him. I also enjoy playing softball because I love the sport. It keeps me active, gives me goals to accopmlish. I really could care less about what team i played for just as long as they relized I took sports seriously so there was no goofing off when it came to game time on the feild. I love seeing how my mothers eyes light up when i make a play or when i am up there pitching i can swee how proud mhy mother is. She is always out there supporting me and i think she see's a lot of her in me when i am playing on that feild or when i am up to bat. I know that SOFTBALL is probly one of the top things that my mother and me share for our mother and daughter relationship. Softball is a passion for me really. Softball is like a bestfriend that sllows me to beat up but lets me run it how i want to. lets me be my best at whatever i am trying to do. When i pitch the more angrier i am for who ever i am thinking about the faster the ball will leave my hand. Which why they called me fire arm. I love softball and i look foward to play next summer..... SOFTBALL IS MY PASSION and THAT IS MY NUMBER ONE HOBBY THAT I MOSTLY ENJOY. !! :)) <33 ;* :))

betty write favorite music artist

My favorite music artist is artist is Betty write. I choose her because for one reason i love old school music. The reason i love old school music is because it actually has a meaning to it. The rythem is nice and smooth. The words are very nicely picked out, they all have a story behind her songs and in her words they tell a story of something she has been through and she think's that she can relate to others. When i listen to music i listen to words and i enjoy the rythem. Yes i enjoy music today but today all they have in common in music is sex, violence, sex, more violence, and more sex. Yes i listen to that music but i will love if betty write and a couple more old time music stars or legends in my eyes could come back and make one more album but most of them are dead already. Some of my friends laugh at me and say Car'Veda you are so old and this that and the third but then i will say to them that they just do not know real music. I know real music and i enjoy it till the best of my ability.

Yes I think that government should provide dare for people the work. I say yes to this because, even people who work struggle with their kids. People who work need help in everything they do, I do not care how much a person is making it seem like they have it all together there is something that they are going to need help which why I believe that no human being perfect. Everyone goes through things. People who especailly need the day care and sometimes even night care services because while they are out trying to make a living for their family they need someone to watch their family sometimes when they are to busy tryign to make it in this society now a days. If Mit Romney wins all of this will be cut out and people were struggling before but if he wins all hope will gone for our working middle class. People that work deserve help just like the one's that dont work they deserve help sometimes to atleast thats my personal belief.

3things i value

The three things I value most would be my family, friends, and wisdom.

I value my family the most because they are here for me for the most part but only to talk to but then again sometimes my family can be my enimies also but that is were my wisdom comes in. My family is also a resource of love. I depend on them to love me unconditionally, and love me for who I am and that they accept me, They accept all of my ways , good and bad nomatter what and that is what family is here for which is why my family is something I value most.

I value my friends the most because they are always here for me when I need a shoulder to cry on or when I need advice and they are always here for me when I need to talk to someone and it is something that I just can not say to my family that is what my friends are here for. They are also here to make me happy and laugh with me not at me and to pick me up when I am down and I will do the same for them and not kcik me while I am down which is something I will never do to them.

My number one favorite thing that I value would be myh wisdom which I feel grows stronger everyday. My wisdom is my everything because with out it I wouldnt be able to a steady head on my shoulders. My WISDOM  loves me because it has someone to help and I love my wisdom because because it I can use it to depend my actions, words, (etc....) on. My wisdom has grown to the point where I can tell who my real friends are and who are and who my fake ones are. My wisdom has lead me to the saying '' DO NOT FEAR THE ENIMIE THAT TALKS ABOUT YOU BEHIND YOUR BACK BUT FEAR THE FAKE FRIENDS THAT HUG YOU' I take that to consideration because for one that saying very deep and it apply's to everyone. My wisdom also has lead me to ''sticks and stones will break your bones but words will never hurt me'' I take that into consideration also because it is the reason I do not let what people say about me bother me at all. Now no I am not saying that words are not hurtful because they are but it is up to you to let it bother you or not and me I am just one of those people who choose not to let words bother me. My wisdom is what helps me to help others my wisdom is what created this strong girl in front of you. my WISDOM is has created Car'Veda Michaeleen Windham and because I have wisdom at such a young age I feel my life will work out for the better no matter what i go through,

my 2012 summer

my summer was great my summer was fun, sometimes dressing up sometimes just like a bum. i loved the fun parts of my summer even the lonely days and the ignorant people and their ignorant ways.Sometimes i would sit on the porch and close my eyes. listening to the wind as it send chills up my spine. Some days bitter as starch and some days fine as wine. A special friend came down to see me. met my mother and i can see my future and i can see us three. I lost some friends like a tree lost leaf's. They say some people are like the branches on a tree cant trust them because they may break. anytime of the night anytime of day. You have to find your friends that are roots and are willing to help you grow but is more willing to stay. I woke up to a meannn hot morning, right there and  then i could tell that this day was going to be boring. I got the baby washed and ready then cleaned up myself and tried to stay steady. i would walk around to the park with the baby and look for that perfect spot to put my blanket in the perfect spot that was shady. I lost a dear friend this summer people look at me like what a bummer. but may he and his brother rest in peace. god needed an angle so right then they were free. they will be truly missed and any negativity will be truly dissed. my summer was an up and down type of situation but end the end it was not a bummer i thank god for this amazing experience called my 2012 summer.

My Name Car'Veda Michaeleen

Car'Veda is a very extradinary name and hinestly yes I have met one person named ''Car'Vetta'' but I have never met another person with the same exact spelling as mine. my name came from my god mother and my mother. They are sisters and when they were younger they said that they would put a mixture of there names together depending on which oner had the girl first. Now my aunty was pregnant for the second time but she thought it was girl until it came but a boy and she named him Jerial Nixon. Then my mom got pregnant a few years later and i turned out to be a girl so i became Car'Veda.  My middle name '' Michaeleen'' came from my god-fathers. Their names are Michael and Lee. My mother said that she wanted my middle name to be mixture of my god-father's so she put them together and just added a ''n'' because she said she needed it to be more feminem. i learned that my name may not have a real definition but to me it means strength because i have been through things no teenager should go through. I think my name means strength because I am still standing tall with my head up high. I told my mom thank you for naming me what you did because you named me after two strong beautiful black women and two strong black men. So I thank her and I am greatful and nomatter what anyone says I will always say my name has a purpose weather they like it or not I love it. :))

R.E.S.P.E.C.T !!!

Respect to me means that you have respect for yourself. I believe that everyone should respect each other just as much as they do to their family members. Respect to me is when you respect your adults. No one has the right to make fun of other people because you never know what someone is going through. I don't want to see anyone being put down in front of me or I will tell them about their selves. I'm not going to act like I have not talked about someone or i'm not going to act like I am perfect because I am not. All I am saying is that people need to learn the word RESPECT and I bet all my money that the world would be a mucho mucho place !! :)) Just give it a try you'll see how much less drama you'll have trust me. :))
