Now that we have reach to the end what can I say. Am done and am going on vacation to Puerto Rico with my family to spend Christmas time with them and get crazy and see all of my friends drive my car and especially sleep in my bed and have a hot shower in my own bathroom.

Next semester is going to be interesting after all because of the classes I picket and that am taking 18 credits because am trying to finish in 3 years because I want to get as fast as cant to med school and may be I cant shorten my studies do9wn to 7 years. Because my career is to long so I have to find many things to shorten my studies even if it means working every day till the night. My future is more important than everything.
Last an interesting night I got to go out after three weeks of hard work and studying I went out with some of my friends to a restaurant I felt so good going out because I haven’t been out for such a long time. Tonight am going out again to hard rock café to a party with the friends. To just chill and have some fun after so much work and studying I need a break so I can relax.
Politics, for me all the people involved in politics are corrupt because they just go were the money is and never care for the people. Its like know the republicans lost control of the senate to the democrats and people think its going to be better. They are all the same they don’t care about you the only thing in there mind is how big they can fill up their pockets with money from other people.
Christmas in Puerto Rico is one of the best holidays in the world because we celebrate it so closely with all the family and we get so into it that people would think we invented the holiday. But one thing I have to say Christmas is so family oriented and, we just get together always in my house and make a huge party with good food and lots of fireworks. But one of the best things is at the end of the night the whole family is together.

I just got such good news that maybe in spring break am going to china. Its going to be one of the best trips I have ever gone. For me china is one of the most amazing civilizations in the world so much history is involved in that big country. One thing is that the next Olympics are going to be played in china. The first thing I want to do is see the Great Wall of China because is something that no one could ever imagine being build in that age.
Am so ecited to go to Puerto Rico to be with my family and friends. Am just counting the days till I leave and go home. Because I know it’s going to be very cool to be home because of the parties and most important get to spend time with the family. But the one thing that’s going to feel so nice is my bed.
I cant believe the summer is almost over I went so fast this is good and bad in a sense well if it goes fast then my career in medicine gets ever closer and bad well I don’t get to spend so much time with my friends. But at least I have next semester and well lest see how it goes. This semester was very good I did well in many of my classes always did my work. No I can say that am really a university student since I have been already half a year.

Since I was little I always wanted to fly and last year me and my dad had the opportunity to take flying classes and I have to tell you it’s been one of the best experiences in the world. It’s kind of cool to say that am a pilot to my friends but I have to say it wasn’t that see. But it was very cool to fly and just whenever I want just take the plane and fly allover the world.
We still haven’t left Iraq and things for starters haven’t improve they have gotten worst. I just think we underestimated the people. We just thought that things were going to get well very fast but they didn’t so many people have died and there is still no peace. But maybe soon some peace will come to people that have suffered so much and have been at war basically all their life. Maybe its time to let the Iraqi people take over and see how they run the countr.
As many of you have heard stem cell research is the process of removing human cells from embryos. And by doing this it can be used to create many things for example it can be used to find a cure for many dieses and make organ transplants. But the government has stop the research because many people are against it and they believe they are killing babies but the baby has not yet develop so it doesn’t have conscious of what’s happening
Well this is a very important topic to discuses global warming is something that is happening to the world and we really have to do something. Global warming is phenomenon that accurse when green house gases are release into the environment for starters his is carbon monoxide or as no science people know as smoke from cars, factories, and other machines. The release of this gas creates a hole in the ozone layer and in creating this, ultraviolet light enters and it hits the earth so what happens heat levels raise and polar ice caps melt and in a few years many cities are going to be other water so we really have to do something.
Are we alone in this universe? Well the answer is no of course, it’s such a simple answer because if you just calculated how much space there is in the universe well you would say we are not alone. Look we live in a planet and this planet is in a solar system that has other planets and we are in located inside of a universe. But that the reason why we are not alone. In this galaxy there are millions of universes and planets so at least their has to be people in the world.
The good thing about living in Puerto Rico is that you are so close to many little islands like Tortola, St Martin, St Thomas and Virgin Gorda. These islands are so cool to go with your own boat and stay at the marina and every morning go out to a different beach and stay till late and get so drunk and we always go with a lot of people a bunch of boats. Some of the islands are so amazing the beaches are like dreams and some have even caves.
To have a girl friend is something so amazing but you always have to pick the correct one if not it wont be as loving as it should be the perfect girl for me and with the experiences I have had are girl that are not materialistic and never love you because of how much you can give them for me that one of the most important one. Other things are they have to be respectful and very intelligent and they have to respect each others family and friends and always be faithful to one.
Senior Year has been one of the best experiences I ever had and maybe the saddest one I will ever have. It was hard but I was worth it. Many cool experiences will never be forgotten from those years in my school. Sometimes it hard to realize that is over after I have past 12 years of my life going to my school and always being with the same friends. Its cool to know that you had a good time and that your friends are always going to be there for you and that you will always have those memory’s.

My friends are like my brothers since I never had brothers. They are every close to me especially my two best friends that are as crazy as I am its cool to be almost the same as your friends and do the same things they it means that you are very close and that you guys will always be there for each other no matter what, That is what I consider my friends to be part of my family. Many of my friends I have know since I was little and we have always stock together and it’s always going to stay like that
It’s good to know more than one language. Because of my cultural background and country I had the opportunity to learn 4 languages. Let’s start with Spanish I had to know it because I live in Puerto Rico and that’s the native language. English I had to learn because at the moment my dad only spoke Arabic and English. And because of my dad said of the family I had to learn Arabic witch is very useful for me. Last but not least is Italian well I learned it myself why because it’s a cool language and its similar to Spanish.
My religious background can be quiet interesting since my dad is Muslim and my mom is catholic. This was been one of the most impressive things about this family because at the age of 8 I was given the choice to be baptize with the permission of my father. After all being catholic or Muslim for me are the same things so it really doesn’t matter what type of religion I am as long as I respect everybody else. But in my family I consider myself both Muslim an catholic.
The day my grandfather died was one of the most impacting things in my life. Just because he died in front of my while paramedics were trying to revive him he died. The worst part was that my parents were on vacation and I was alone with my cousin and we had to take control of the entire situation while I waited for my parents to come from the islands. That day for me was one of the longest in the world but after all we all got together to say god bay to my grandfather and my dad had to say god bye to his dad.
My heritage is one of the coolest things in the world they don’t call me a small United Nations for no reason. It’s because well lets start I was Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico and my dad was born I Baghdad, Iraq. His that came from Kurdistan and my grandma came fro Baghdad. My mom was born in Santa Clara, Cuba and here parents are descendants of Spaniards and they were born in the cannery island. Because of all this cultural and religious background I can understand many of the people of the world and have had the opportunity to visit many of the places were my family comes from.
One of the most amazing places to visit in you life time has to be Cuba. Two years ago I had the opportunity to visit and I have to say its been one of the best experiences I ever had. One of the things I got to do was visit my family in Cuba I was so amazed that I had so much family in Cuba an they are such nice people. I got see almost all of Cuba y just went allover the island. Cuba is such a beautiful country that you can just imagine in dreams. Especially the beaches the water is so clear and the sand is so soft. The reason Cuba is like this its because it hasn’t been so exploited by people reason number one Cubans cant go to the tourist sections of the country because its prohibited and there are very little tourist.
Why I have always wanted to study medicine and never change my mind about it. To study medicine is to study how to save a life. For me medicine is a career that not many people can accomplish in their life. Medicine is a very long carrier to learn since you have to finish a 4 year college and the you have to take the MKTS and after you pass and get onto med school you have to complete 4 year and after you finish med school and become a doctor you still have to specialize in something. Am specializing in surgery but I still haven’t decided what kind of surgery maybe plastic or orthopedic surgeon.
One of the things I most like is sports cars. For me the best brands are Ferrari, Masserati, Porsche, Mercedes Benz, and BMW. Many of the manufactures are German especially BMW, and Mercedes Benz. The best car from Mercedes has to be the Mclaren SLR. That has a value of a million dollars. The best part its engine it has 700HP. In BMW the series 650 is a very good convertible and it’s very technological. But the worlds most coolest car for me has to be the Ferrari Enzo. The only way you can get this car Is by invitation only to Ferrari. You have to own at lest 5 Ferrari just to be invited then the hard part comes the value of the car is approximately 1.6 million dollars.
This year I started to play rugby at Lynn University and after some training I went to the tryouts and I got accepted on the team. It’s been really fun and rigorous. The sport demands a lot of stamina and most important you have to be king of strong to play rugby because there are some big people in the team and you can get hurt if you are not fit for a game. It’s a very interesting sport since two sports are mixed together soccer and football. For example in the game you can kick the ball and keep playing it and the game never ends until there is a turnover or an outside and the ball is passed to the other team.
Chavez won again I can’t not believe that happened again. The Venezuelan people have been suffering for so much with this dictator and when the chance came to take him out of power. The other candidate lost to Chavez. Many people say that many of the votes were change and that’s how he won. Remember Venezuela is controlled by a corrupt
Government. What I have heard from many of the people is that even the police are corrupted they tell me sometimes they have been stop by the police and they just give money to the cops and they let them go
Moving next year into an apartment. For me this is going to be very interesting since I get my own room and have my privacy. Plus we are going to have kitchen so I can’t cook some nice food and I don’t have to go to the cafeteria everyday. The other good thing is because I have an apartment I will get a car. Finally having a car is going to be so amazing not having to stay at home and I can go out whenever I want. Am moving in with two friends, one is from Colombia and the other is from Venezuela

The next one is like this or even better. I and my roommate This is almost the end of this semester I cant believe how fast time has past it look like if it was the first day of university but it has been a very interesting semester I meet some cool people and some nice friend and my roommates are the best friends in the world. I dint know I was going to have so much fun this school year. Hope have talk instead of living in a dorm we move to an apartment so we can have our own rooms and so we can save money.
Today I went out to a place could sultan it’s a hookah place it’s a Arabic restaurant were you sit down with your friends and smoke something that is could hukka this a tobacco substance that you smoke with a device that filters all the bad substances and you just smoke the flavor of which you pick it. But the best thing is the Arabic food. But this place is so relaxing you sit down and just socialize wit your friends. It feels like if I was back home with my Arabic family.
