Touring some cities of Pennsylvania
I finally get to tour some cities of Pennsylvania. The first one was Pittsburgh, then Harrisburg, and last but not least Philadelphia. I said to myself when I arrived at each city I was going to the movies, shopping, parties and sightseeing. So I can compare what it is like to do the above in each city and then when I return to my island I can tell everyone about the different experiences that I had. The reason I chose these cities are: one they are the three major cities in Pennsylvania, two they seem to have a lot more than Greensburg I’m sure and three they are historical.
Party in Greensburg
` I finally found a place to party in Greensburg. Hip hip hooray. I went to this club called Johnny B’s, even though it wasn’t the most appealing place and didn’t have many people, I still had fun. The music was banging and everyone was dancing. That’s what makes a great party-not the amount of people but what the people came to do. I was having so much fun which showed in my clothing because my perspiration was all over my body. After all, the DJ played my favorite song “Run this town” by Rihanna, Jay Z, and Kanye West. I just lost control when I heard my song. Not only was i dancing like a star, but i wish that i was dancing witha star. The night continued very well; by the end, everyone was drained. We went to the restaurant to have breakfast, but everyone was so tried we didn’t get the chance to finish. We drove back to our dorm and called it a night.
The Most annoying words to me
I, for one, do think that “whatever” is one of the most annoying words when communicating. When you’re speaking to someone and they respond by saying “whatever,” it’s rude, it’s disrespectful and it’s certainly annoying. Many people might think that it’s today’s language, but believe it or not, if you continuing saying "whatever" you might say it to the wrong person at the wrong time. Some people may use it in everyday conversations without any meaning behind the word but the other person might take offense to it without you knowing. In order to have a great environment, one must respect others to prevent any unnecessary altercations.
Conversely, another word that I can’t stand is, “I don’t care” which some individuals say anytime they do wrong and you try to correct the problem. The corrections might even be very beneficial to them. Their response is, ” I don’t care” when in reality they do care, they just don’t want to face the reality of being wrong or they just don’t want to hear your corrections

Jamaican Beer

Many people throughout the island of Jamaica love to drink beer especially men, like my uncle Anthony. The most commonly- drank beer on the island is Red Stripe. Red Stripe is brewed in Jamaica by a Company called D&G. This company makes most of the island juices and drinks; for instance they make Jamaican soda, and fruit drinks. One main reason why people Jamaican's love Red Stripe so much is how it makes them feel, it leaves them “irie”. Irie is a term used in Jamaica to describe a feeling of being elated. My uncle Anthony normally has a Red Stripe almost every day for his lunch break from his construction job. He just can’t get enough of it. I’m sure all the beer drinker here in Greensburg would love the taste of Jamican Red Stripe.
Legal age to drink in Jamaica

I was wondering why everyone in the United States gets very happy when they reach the age of 21. It is because that’s the legal age to drink and they feel a sense of independence. I would like to inform you all that in the island of Jamaican the legal age to drink is 18 but the law isn’t really enforced. Many young people drink and smoke as they please. I guess that’s why I don’t find it fascinating to drink or smoke because I have been around it so much. People always ask me if I smoke; when I reply by saying no, they immediately come that conclusion by saying I’m being dishonest. They claim everyone from Jamaica smokes. That’s such a big stereotype. Not everyone from Jamaica drinks and smokes.
My Creativity

Last weekend which was the fall break, I didn’t get the chance to go home so I decided to do something creative. My creativity was the art of cooking. I went to Wal-Mart to do a little grocery shopping but to my surprise, Wal-Mart was very huge. I told my friends that I hadn't seen any stores this large within the island of Jamaica. Anyway, I know that they were saying this girl has got to be crazy. Despite the size of Wal-Mart, I continued with my shopping and found and bought the things I needed for my cooking. This dish is one of our cultural dishes that I created: it's called Jerk chicken with white rice. This dish is normally eaten on Sundays for dinner and it's very costly. The funny thing about it was that I actually thought about the class while I was cooking. i thought about how nice it would have been if I had brought some of the good food for you all to sample. Too bad it was on a weekend and all of you were probably home anyway. Next time I promise to bring you all some good old Jamaican cuisine. Even though I was left here on campus, I enjoyed the weekend because I had some home- cooked food.
