My Thoughts about Vancouver Riot in 2011

    When the riot happened, I was 11 years old. I briefly remembered that the Canucks lost to the Boston Bruins in hockey. When I looked outside, it was like a sudden warzone of fire and teargas covering downtown buildings. Vancouver had a distinct burn smell for a month because of all the burning cars and buildings. I feel like Canadians shouldn't get upset about a game - even though we had a chance to win the Stanley Cup that year. It would be a more reasonable to riot if we elected someone such as a Donald Trump - then I would support the riot because who wants a wall?! Even though the Canucks lost, there shouldn't be a reason to destroy buildings. Personally, I think it was a stupid idea to damage city property and possibility face jail time. If someone damaged my property, I would feel extremely angry and would have to hold myself back. The damaged cause is misplaced and unnecessary.

My Favourite Gift Ever!

My favourite gift that I have ever received was a laptop. It was an i7 4790k with an Nvidia GeForce 980 video card. It had 32 gigabytes of RAM and 2 terabytes of SSD storage. The laptop came with a 17.3 inch screen, RGB lighting on the keyboard, and touch screen. Finally, the laptop came with a $500 dollar gift card to Best Buy.

I loved the laptop so much that I brought it every day with me to school; I showed it off to all my friends- I even slept beside it. Gaming with it was awesome. I was able to play games, browse the web, edit videos, and program all at once and the computer had no lag. Unfortunately, when my grade 10 report card came back, I did not do as well as my parents had expected. I got into lots of trouble. As a punishment, they tried to take my laptop, but I did not want to let it go. I held on to it tightly and I got into a tug of war with my parents. At the end of it, nobo...

Lesson Learn about Life

The lesson I learned in life was never trust anyone with your personal information because they can ruin your life or career. I had one scenario back in January of last year where I got scammed. The transaction was around thirty thousands dollars worth of Bitcoin, at 400 USD dollars per Bitcoin. I was dumb enough to send it all to a website because I was trying to exchange Bitcoin into PayPal, then transfer it into my bank, as the bank knows that I am a programmer for various websites. Luckily the website didn't scam me, but when the money entered PayPal, I was so happy and excited I tried to transfer three thousand to the bank. Paypal denied me, basically saying, "Let's ruin your life and take all your money." I was depressed and angry. PayPal, a well-known company, had just stolen my money. The more I researched about this, the more I found out that many people have gone through similar situations with the company. I refuse to do business with them anymore, but I ge...
