What I Did Saturday
I really didn't do anything Saturday. I worked a 10 hour shift at my job. We had only a few patients thats day. The best part was probably getting home and getting ready to go out. My wife was hungry and my brother had been bugging me to go to Johnny Rockets. So gave in and decided that dinner will be burgers. When we got there it was busy. We had to sit outside. My wife decided to order next door at Panera sandwiches while my brother and I ordered some delicous burgers. I was starving since I did not eat a lunch but the food was to much for me. My younger brother on the other hand devoured everthing he ordered. I should have ordered a heathier option like my wife. Real boring Saturday overall. That was probably the highlight of the day. Hopefully next Saturday is more eventful.

Week Eight Blog
For me I would have to talk about coming back to school. I was never one of those people that enjoyed going to school. In high school, my reason for going was pretty much to see my friends and hang out. I did pretty good grade wise but I knew if I tried harder I could have done much better. I went straight into a university and was completely overwhelmed. Everything was so much harder and I did not to really good in my classes. When I decided to work instead of school I was really glad I got out. I was making good money and I did not think much about going to school again. Then things changed I got married and left my old job in Va and it was very hard to find a job in Ca. I eventually found a job that I loved but then the economy went downhill and I got layed off. My wife convinced me to go back to school and I agreed. Now I mentioned how I did not enjoy school at all but that was years ago. During my life I've learned to be responsible and more patient. These past year at Oxnard college has not been as bad as I thought and I have done really well in all my classes. I have enjoyed my classes and my professors have all been great.
What I learned first of all is, to never ever settle a lesser education and one should always strive for knowledge. We clearly know that business want the best employees so if one has the knowledge, they definitely want them to work for them. So please stay in school and do not give up!

Family
I love my family. I grew up in Arlington, Va and now I'm all the way in Ca away from my family. Well, now I have a family of my own. I'm married and we have Rambo, our Pembroke Welsh corgi. I never call him a dog even though he is. I love him to much. Currently my youngest brother is living with us because he has decided to go to school here. Now we are a family of 4 here in Ca. My parents and my other brother live back in Arlington. I always think about them and we usually talk at least 3-4 times a week. We are very close and we have always helped each other out when in need.
I am the oldest of the 3 and always tried to be a good big brother. I tried to be a good son to my parents and I was never a perfect son. I can remember how hard my parents worked to support my brothers and I. My mom has two jobs and worked weekends and my dad worked from 4am until 4 pm. Growing up, I learned to change diapers at the age of 6 and bottle fed my middle brother. We couldn't afford a baby sitter at the point. When I think about it, I realized even at a young age I would do anything for my family. Just as our family now helps us with school, work, life, pretty much anything. They are always there.
I mentioned my youngest brother is living with me and I promised my parents I would take care of them and my brothers anytime anywhere. My youngest brother is here for school and I have no problem helping him with assignments. My middle brother has his kids and wife back home and he comes to visit us every year. It's nice when I see him and we always talk about when we were young and the things we did. This past visit he made, he told me that if I needed anything to help our youngest brother that I should never hesitate to ask. I remember I smiled and thought I could always rely on my family.
Our families are one of the greatest blessings we could ever get and I am blessed to have one.
