11 For 2011--- Leslie's Version!

Recently, we've watched the documentary Life in a Day showing people from 192 countries around the world on July 24, 2010. Anyone can video anything if its on this certain day! Some of the videos in the documentary were from someone lovelife to waking up in the morning to a slaughter house (YUCK!)! My teacher gave me questions to answer like in the video, but my answers are just in blog form.

1. What do you have in your pocket?
    To tell you the truth, I have nothing in my pocket! Yesterday I had a piece a paper in my pocket! Does that answer the question?
2. What was the last thing you had to drink?
    Water at lunch... yummy :)
3. What makes me happy?
    Laughing at a funny jokes with my friends and family, eating pad thai and cupcakes, and traveling. Also shopping at Target. Ahh I love Target.
4.What was the last really nice thing you did for someone?
   I helped out a friend by giving her a book so she could do a chapter notes about our Social Studies book. She left hers at home!
5.What scares you?
  I absolutely hate and I'm scared of snakes and paper cuts. They both make me cringe!
6. What is the last movie you saw?
   The last movie I saw was Monte Carlo. My mom rented it from the DVD club we go to. Wasn't half bad actually... it was pretty good!
7. What was the last song you sang?
    The last song I sang was probably Party Rock Anthem By: LMFAO or Paradise By: Coldplay. Also yesterday I sang Halo By: Beyonce. As you can see my interests in music is a lot of different genres, its widely spread.
8.  What was the last thing you bought?
    The last thing I bought was cookies from Debbie's Cookies. Ah.. there just so good you can't pass them up! Oh and the smell from when you step into the bakery is magnificent.
9. What couldn't you live without?
   I can't live without my family and friends. They are always there for me when I need them.
10. What do you hope for?
   Well, I hope for a lot of things. I hope that I get good grades, make new friends, see places, visit family. There is not just one thing I hope for.
11! What could you live without?
 I probably could live without sweets.. junk food mostly, but I really dont want to. I can DEFINETLY live without homework, though!
Well thanks for reading followers! More blogs coming soon from this crazy blogger! :)

The Story of L.K.D!

Hello again, followers. Today we are going to get a little personal. And when I say personal I mean you are going to learn how the name Leslie Katherine Davis was created. Now, did you know that the origin of Leslie is mainly Scottish. In the UK, Leslie is mainly a boy’s name but in the United States it is mainly a girl’s name. The meaning of Leslie is “holly garden”. Umm… yeah I guess I was named after some bush. Uh, cool….? I am Peruvian-American (I consider myself American) so my name is pretty misleading because I am definitely not Scottish. Then again there are some girls in the States with the name Leslie like the actress Leslie Ann Down and Lesley Ann Warren.                                                                                    
 Well, according to my mom, she picked the name Leslie because she really liked it and so did my dad. My brother, 5 years old at that time, wanted to name me Katherine. Why, you ask? Because he was obsessed with the Power Rangers and wanted to name me after the pink Power Ranger or Katherine at that time. Thus we have Leslie Katherine Davis.                                                                                                                                   
 I guess I do like my name. I mean I can’t imagine my name as anything else. Can you? Actually, if my name means garden I’m not so sure. Just kidding. I have always liked the name Michelle but recently I’ve been liking the name Kailey or Kelly. Alright, so that is my personal story of my name J Talk to you in another blog post.  Adios!


P.S. Did you know there are 10 different variations of my name?
