Blog # 5 due Wed.

     When I was young I played mostly with my brother and sister in the backyard.  I liked to jump on the trampoline we received from our neighbors.  I used to jump on it everyday.  I remember one day when I jumped on it and Patrick came outside and wanted to have a lightsaber war I did not want to and proceded to push him off the trampoline.  He got mad and broke my two ended red Darth Maul lightsaber. I was very upset.  We all three used to play soccer together and we would kick the ball on the bricks or on the fence.  Sometimes my dad would take us fishing at the park by our house.

During the summer we would each spend a week at my Grandparent's house by ourselves.I remember one day when my grandpa and I played baseball together.We were running the bases and my grandpa ran a homerun.It was amazing since I've never seen him run before.After that we went in and had some ice cold sweet tea. :D 

Blog #4

This week we are going to look at famous singers and/or musicians from Spanish speaking countries. Your task is to find a video ( must be appropriate for school!) from a Spanish speaking singer and blog about it. Be sure to include the following:

Who is the artist?Where is s/he or they  from?What type of music do they sing?

Have you ever heard of this artist before?Do you like their music?

In your post, include a link to the video (via YouTube or the artist's website), and write no less than eight sentences describing the artist, video, and type of music.

A Year Without Rain

The artist is Selena Gomez and she sings pop songs.  She is originally from Texas but her dad is Mexican American while her mom is half Italian. I have heard of this artist before, mostly through the Disney Channel and I like her music because she has different varieties and they are easy to sing along to.  My favorite movie she is in is A Cinderella Story.  My favorite song is A Year Without Rain, the english version.  I like the Spanish version also but I understand the english version better.  I love the music video because I like how it shows the picture of them together.  In the end when they find each other and it starts to rain reminds me of a Hilary Duff quote,"because waiting for you is like waiting for rain in this drought. Useless and disappointing."  They also brighten my mood when I am having a bad day.
