Top 10 Don'ts when vacationing in the "islands"

1. Don't wear your bathing suit every where you do. The island isn't one big beach.
2. Don't feed the iguanas. They are like stray, cats they'll keep coming back for more.
3. Don't smoke pot with a Rasta man unless you intend to have his mulato babies.
4. Don't sleep on the beach at night....its just not smart.
5. Don't underestimate the power of the sun. You will get burned.
6. Don't assume the natives can't speak english.
7. Don't get your hair braided with red, yellow and green beads. It's a dead give away.
8. Don't drive on the wrong side of the road. Think England.
9. Don't eat what you cant recognize. ie: mountain chicken isn't chicken its a frog.
10. Don't worry, be happy. You're on vacation in the islands instead of Dorney Park!

Growing up in the Islands

Being a person of caribbean decent living in the US I think its irritating when people try to classify me. As soon as I start talking to a person they say "wait wait let me guess your from Jamaica, no no wait i got it Haiti". The funny part is they are always wrong. I swear people think that the caribbean is made up of like three islands. When I was in high school I had to take world history, US history, Caribbean History and local history. So when I meet people who think that the Virgin Islands is made up of a bunch of virgins and that "island people" live in huts its pretty annoying. Yeah we live in huts. Huts made of poured concrete and steel. This is the 2006 people. Read a book, go on a cruise, rent Weekend at Bernies. Do something, anything, I don't care just get educated about other cultures and other places it will do you alot of good in the future and it might even get you laid.

chachachachachanges,

During the past 4 years I've been having dificulty deciding what I want to do with my so called life. So I went to the Art Institue of Philadelphia and majored in Interior Design. 3 years later and $60,000 in debt. I still don't know what I want to be. I really thought interior design was it but as I look back I realize that it isn't. So the other day I took one of those cheezy career test...................................... long story short I wanna be a dental hygienist now. I plan on starting at the local college next spring. I really think I got it this time. I really think this is the career for me.
