My passion: Caporales

My passion is dancing caporales. Caporales is a traditional dance from Bolivia, I've been dancing caporales for seven years now. I dance in the group Caporales San Simon VA USA. We go to different states to perform our dance. From Virginia to New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and lots more. I like dancing caporales because it's a very exciting dance. It is also a good workout. Practices are held every Sunday and we practice for three hours. I am not bolivian but i enjoy it and it is something that I see myself doing for a very long time. Caporales in Virginia has became a good activity for a lot of teenagers. Dancing caporales benefits me, it is an out of school activity that has kept me from getting in trouble. traveling & dancing in parades is the best part. We perform in so many parades. Audiences in those presentations seem very interested and it sometimes makes them want to join as well. Like when I performed in the Heritage assembly, my classmates were very interested and so far now I have gotten about four of them to join my group and they love it. I like recruiting for this dance. I make fliers and also post information on Twitter and Facebook.

My desire to attend Paul Mitchell The School

One of my biggest desires is to go to Paul Mitchell The School. Paul Mitchell is a hair salon and school. Doing research on it, there is a location in Tyson's Corner Mall. Paul Mitchell The School is a college. To get into Paul Mitchell you need a state board license. I am currently taking cosmetology at my school. It think it's a wonderful opportunity, thats why I work hard for it. This is my second year taking cosmetology class, next year I would be able to get my state board. It will require a lot of studying. Well back to information about Paul Mitchell. When attending Paul Mitchell you need supplies and the textbooks.  The costs are for supplies, kit ,and tuition. I got the this information on the Paul Mitchell website. I would be looking into reading more information but if I really want to get into Paul Mitchell The School it's going to take a lot of work, and also maybe starting to work at a temporary salon after getting my license is going to help me economic wise. I got the this information.

My Trip to the Newseum

For my spring break I went to the Newseum in Washington, D.C. I learned a lot of different new things. All the technology there had things that I never seen before. I had seen a 4-D movie. They had moving seats which I think makes the movie way more exciting. There was a section in the newseum where they had different computers where you can read different articles. Also there was a section in the museum where you can be a reporter. The staff there just gives you reports to read. You can also take pictures to be in the cover of a newspaper. In the entrance of the Newseum they had newspapers of all 50 states "Today News". I was surprised because someone had to change the newspaper posts everyday. Thats a lot of hard work but a smart idea.
