My Video Setup
Well, this is how record I my video my videos if you were just wondering. I use my lamp for suspending my camera in the air, and if and when it gets dark in the room I can just turn on the lamp to provide me with light whenever I am recording a video. For my camera, I use my iPod Touch. I just attach my iPod onto the lamp with yarn and I have a fully functional video-taking setup ready to record my videos. Sometimes look to other methods if I am recording my videos in another room.

JUST SOME POETRY
My Limerick:
There was a new student named Chocker
Who hated nothing more than soccer.
All through the hall
He’d kick a ball--
Drats, it wouldn’t fit in his locker!
There was a new student named Chocker
Who hated nothing more than soccer.
All through the hall
He’d kick a ball--
Drats, it wouldn’t fit in his locker!
In this poem I am writing about an imaginary boy named Chocker. Limericks are verses of three long and two short lines rhyming. I love limericks especially because of their configuration. Also, this poem will make you want to laugh about it.

Why Should Students have Less Homework?- Persuasive Essay
Everyone always wonder should students have less homework? Yes, I think that students like us should have less homework because most of the time we have to struggle with a bunch of school-related work that are due the next day. There are many reasons to explain why students should receive less homework.
First, having too much homework can affect how long you sleep. Many of us have so much homework that it affects how long we sleep. As everyone knows it’s vital, especially for children and teens, to get at least 8 hours of sleep each day. Getting 8 hours of sleep everyday is important because everyone, children and teenagers, are still growing up and developing. Staying up late and doing homework is also why, sometimes, it is difficult for us students to stay awake and focused in class. I myself find it difficult to also stay concentrated and focused during school because I too am a victim of this. I think that all of us should receive less homework to get the sleep that all students need and to grow and develop properly.
In addition, stress and anxiety are also factors that result from abundant amounts of homework. I think that all teachers should realize that students can lose their mind over the bountiful amounts of homework they are giving. Pretty much everybody suffers from stress because of their homework. Stress can cause lack of sleep, slipping grades, fatigue, unhealthy eating habits, depression, and many more factors. To me, this is very dreadful to not only myself, but to everyone who tries to devote their time and effort in finishing their homework. Anxiety on the other can lead to questions asking yourself, “Can I finish everything in time to get to sleep in time?” and, “Will my answers to my homework be correct?” Anxiety causes nervousness which is never a good thing while you are still learning in school. If we all have gotten less homework we wouldn’t even have to worry about stress or anxiety. Without stress or anxiety, all students would all be cheerful and joyful.
Finally, having too much homework can take away and/or reduce a student’s free time and social activity. Parents do tend to worry about why their children aren’t talking to them at all. If you didn’t know already this is not a good thing. This creates less time for sports and after school activities. Family time is also decreased which can lead to family conflict. Hanging out with friends is decreased, so that means there is less socializing. I think that students also want time to relax and enjoy other activities. To achieve this goal of having the time to relax and spend time enjoying other activities, there has to be a decrease in the amount of homework.
In conclusion, I hope that that all teachers realize that it is not easy to finish a large amount of homework. They should know that homework can cause all these complications and that this takes a toll on all of the student’s health, thinking, and learning skills. I also hope that they know what happens when they give a plentiful amount of homework. I think that every single teacher should remember this statement, “Homework is like taking away a student’s childhood, no one wants that, do they?”

In this essay, I am writing about why students should have less homework. I wrote this essay because this is an issue that almost every student faces. To me, I wish I didn't have that much homework.
Short Stories
Religion Short Story: A Model of God's Love
A Model of God’s Love
I’ve thought of the best person to be an example of God’s love. Her name is Maria Teresa Santos, our next door neighbor. She is a devout Catholic and her heart is full of God’s love for other people. Ms.S is also a Eucharistic Minister at our nearby church.
One morning, Ms.Santos invited me for milk and cookies at her beautiful green house. I came over and knocked at her front door. She opened the door with a wide smile on her face.
“ Good Morning, Ms. Santos” I said to her.
“Come in, Marc” She said with joy.
“Glad you can come” Ms. Santos said thankfully.
Ms.Santos and I sat down on her soft, fluffy, and large couch. After we sat down I began nibbling on one of her chocolate chip cookies.
“Ok I wanted to bring you here to tell you a story” she whispered to me.
“ Oh, I love stories! What is is about?” I said to Ms.Santos.
“ You’ll find out in the end, but I could tell you now that it is being about a true Catholic.”
She, then started telling me her story. Ms. Santos begun her story by telling me how she helps the poor and the needy by volunteering at the local food pantry. She also spoke about how she gives out food like rice, onions, potatoes, carrots, apples, oranges and strawberries to the people who need food and who are hungry. Every time she passes out food to somebody Ms.Santos greets them with a giant grin and says, “Thank you for coming to the food pantry!” She says that she is grateful that she could stop all these people from starvation.
“I hope you understand why I go the food pantry to help the fortuneless get the food they want.” Ms.Santos told me.
“Yes, I think I do understand why you go there. You go there because you like to show God’s love for others” I responded.
“ Exactly the answer I was looking for” Ms.Santos said.
“ Will you tell me another story of yours because they are so exciting?”
“ Of course I will.” She said gladly.
Ms.Santos then moved on to her next story which was a spitting image of her last story she told me about. She then initiated the second story by explaining to me that someday after she volunteered at the food pantry, walking back to her house she came upon an old, aged lady who looked extremely poor and starved.
“ Please give me some money, I haven’t eaten for days now.” The frail old lady said.
Ms. Santos did something I never thought she’d do. Ms.Santos helped the old lady up, and they both went to nearby Burger King to eat lunch. They talked to each other while eating their burgers and fries and well… they became great friends! Before they said goodbye to each other the now well-nourished old lady said thank you to Ms. Santos, hugged her and said, “You’re welcome!” Then the old lady left out of sight beaming from ear to ear. Ms.Santos went home feeling cheerful that she was able to help the old lady.
“ Hope that you enjoyed my stories the I told you which was filled with God’s love.” Ms.Santos told me.
“ Oh yes I did!” I exclaimed.
“Now, do you have any questions to ask me?” Ms.Santos inquired.
“ Yes I sure do Ms.S.” I announced.
One question I’d like to ask you Ms.S is, “How did you become a Eucharistic Minister?”
She replied by telling me that she wanted to find a way to serve the Lord.
“ The Trinity must have guided me” she told me.
“ I serve every Sunday at the church because I like to help out during Communion.” she explained to me.
By being a Eucharistic Minister I got to go to church and serve the Lord at the same time. She also talked to me about that every time she passes out Communion she is filled with the Holy Spirit.
“Thanks for answering my question Ms.Santos its so interesting being a Eucharistic Minister.” I said.
“ Oh you are very welcome!” She replied.
“ Any more questions for me?” Ms.Santos inquired.
My last question I would like to ask you Ms.Santos is, “How can you show God’s love to other people?”
Ms.Santos gladly told me that by being kind,helpful, and treating everyone with respect especially the poor and the needy. No matter how busy you should give time to say Thank you Lord for everything we have and be able to share it especially people who don’t have any money at all.
Finally, I said, “Thanks a lot for telling me how to be a better Catholic by sharing God’s love for others.”
Ms.Santos said, “Always remember that the Blessed Trinity is by your side.”
We both said goodbye to each other and I went home with my heart filled with love for others.

Ms.Santos said, “Always remember that the Blessed Trinity is by your side.”
We both said goodbye to each other and I went home with my heart filled with love for others.
In this short story, I wrote about a woman named Ms. Santos being a model of God's love. She shows compassion for other people by helping the poor, volunteering at the local food bank, and even feeding a frail old lady that hasn't eaten for days. I am showcasing this because it is inspirational and moving to the emotions.

“HAPPY HALLOWEEN!” that’s what the sign on the door said on the house. Halloween is a spooky time for witches riding on brooms, and dogs howling on a full moon. It’s a fun time for people young and old to be able to wear their Halloween costumes. During Halloween real ghosts have been seen by people. Creepy stuff right? There’s a ghost who wears a black cape and holds his head which was a dark green face. This ghost was a headless one. He has been seen by many people during the day and night at the cemetery floating above the ground. Some people were so afraid they did not come out of their houses. Would you like to hear a scary story?
Long time ago, there was a couple named Dante and Maria who lived in a faraway countryside. Dante is a farmer while Maria bakes pies for a living. Maria bakes many delicious pies such as, pumpkin, apple, custard, and pecan pie. Halloween is the time of the year Maria’s business is booming because of the fact that her pumpkin pies were full of her secret ingredient which was sweet honey. She made tons and tons of money from the pumpkin pies in her business that she was able to decorate her house with lots of Jack-O-Lanterns, spider-webs, and hanging skeletons. Everyone who passed by Dante’s and Maria’s house were very fascinated by the fearsome look of their house. In fact, it looked like a “Haunted House.”
Maria’s pie making business was so successful that some people across town became jealous of her. They attempted to steal the secret recipes for her tasty pies. A lot of people tried, but were not successful. Maria kept her recipes in a small black box hidden in a classified place only she knew. Even though Maria was becoming rich she still bakes pies in the kitchen of her house. While Maria bake her pies at her business that she owns, Dante was busy tending to his farm work, which was raising his chicken and pigs on the farm.
It was exactly Halloween Day that Maria decided to bake more pies because she ran out of them to sell for her business. While her pies were simmering in the oven the aroma of them filled the neighboring houses that caught the attention of a homeless boy who was starving. He followed the scent of the pies and found that the windows of Maria’s house were open since Maria was cooling off her newly baked pies. The hungry boy stole one of Maria’s pies and ran off in a flash.
Luckily, Dante found the boy with the pie still in his hands. During those times, anyone who committed a crime has death as a punishment. The boy was brought to the plaza where he was to be hung. The sorrowful boy begged for his life and before he was to be hung he said, “I’ll be back….” The boy was then executed, and died on Halloween day.
Legend says that after he was put to death his apparition has been seen looking for Maria’s pies. Maria was haunted every day whenever she made pies. The hungry ghost which the boy who was hungry called is always peering in to Maria’s kitchen. She got so scared of “the hungry ghost” that she eventually died of a heart attack. When Maria died her business went bankrupt. Is it a coincidence or what? Maria died on Halloween, the same day that the “hungry ghost” was hung to death.
Well that’s the end of that story. HOPE you enjoyed it……

My 30 Second Easter Story
One day there were two children wondering when the Easter bunny was coming. The bunny was in a car accident. Then, deathed to live to not die to live. The bunny tried to die, but the energizer would not let him. He soon gave up and started beating his drum, “boom, boom, boom!”
He finally found a beat, “These batteries be lasting longer!” yelled the Easter bunny.
The Easter bunny was now the energizer of the bunny. Then, he went into the woods and found the most golden energizer ever known to the world. To his disappointment, a llama was guarding it. The children grabbed their magical alpaca staff so that they could lure the llama into the a trap.
Then, a drama llama named Janelle that was dressed as a big red egg.
Next, Janelle, the drama llama, screamed, “Wa, Wa, Wa.”
This ugly llama, named Lucas, was so fabulous and he came strolling by.
Some ladies llamas yelled, “Bye Falisha! Oh no, not today Honey Boo Boo! Not with those easter eggs.”
Honey Boo Boo ignored all of the lady llamas because she knew she had potential passing out all of her Easter eggs to all of the children. She stood up with all her Easter eggs and she was on her way.

"Jelly Bean" The Easter Story
One day there was an Easter egg hunt. This particular Easter egg hunt was unusual because all over the flat ground were sugary, delicious, tempting jelly beans.
“Very odd indeed,” I said to myself.
Anyways, everywhere I walked a new shade of jelly bean would appear under my foot. Something that I had completely forgotten was that sugary foods were my favorite type of food I eat. I decided that since no one was at the jelly bean hunt renamed by myself because there were no eggs, I would eat all the jelly beans! I began eating all the jelly beans piece by piece I shoved a new vibrant color into my mouth.
“Yummy,” I said to myself, sounding like I was murmuring.
I picked up the last jelly bean and dropped it into my mouth.
“Nooooo…!” I screamed for there were no more jelly beans for me to gobble up anymore.
Once I screamed out, a couple children rounded the corner of where the jelly bean hunt was. When they saw there was nothing at all to find, the children had mixed emotions, some were crying and some just had their mouth wide open.
“Uh-oh, looks like I ruined their jelly bean hunt!” I whispered to myself feeling ashamed for what I had done.
To tell everyone the truth, I didn’t eat those jelly beans you know why? Well, this jelly bean hunt was taken place on April Fools Day (April 1).You know what I’m going to say next.
“APRIL FOOLS!” I yelled to the top of my lungs and showed them all the jelly beans in my hands.
“WOW!” All the children said in unison.
I gave the children all the jelly beans to hide them. They were all joyous and so was I.
