Cinco de Mayo Narrative

Cinco de Mayo is a date of great importance for the Mexican culture. Cinco de Mayo  is not only celebrated in Mexico, but has also become a traditional holiday in the United States of America. The holiday of Cinco de Mayo, the 5th of May, commemorates the victory of the Mexican militia over the French Army at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. The holiday of Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in Mexico and the United States of America. It is not, as many people think, Mexico's Independence Day, which is actually September 16th. The Battle of Puebla occurred during the French intervention in Mexico. A stunning victory for the Mexicans: 83 killed, 131 wounded, and 12 missing. The Mexicans won their famous victory on May 5, 1862. Cinco de Mayo is celebrated with huge fairs that include Mexican singing, dancing, feasting, sport activities and fireworks. Cinco de Mayo is a day to enjoy traditional Mexican recipies and the best loved Mexican foods.

My Dreams :]

  I have many dreams that I hope to succeed in throughout my life. I hope to attend either The University of Miami or The University of California Los Angeles. From there, I would love to pursue a career as a pharmacist. I am also interested in becoming a physical therapist. Either job is rewarding in their own way. I love to help people and both of these jobs do just that! Being a physical therapist, I can personally work with people and help there hands on. A pharmacist also helps people but in a different way. As a pharmacist, I will be able to make, or work with the medicine that helps people become better whether sick, injured and so on. There are many other hopes and dreams I have, but these are the dreams I know i will succeed to accomplish. 

DigiTales Reflection

I watched three digital stories from DigiTales ; Diva Tyaira , Joey 1 Minute and Tear Drops By Ali. My favorite movie was Diva Tyaira. The other two movies were good as well. Each story was told with a mixture of images and audio in a neat and creative way. The only complaint I have is the speed and length of the video. In one video, the slides were too fast so th e captions were hard to read. This made the video hard to understand. For future use, they should edit the length of the slides to be longer.
