One of the greatest things that you can do in high school sports is go to a state event. Whether its baseball, football, basketball, track, or wrestling, it is one of the most gratifying feelings to be able to go to a state event and compete with the best people in high school. This year I personally have made it to state in football and just recently track. Football to me is a little easier to make it in. It's tough don't get me wrong, but as a team you have a better chance. Now in track its a completely different thing. Most events are single except the relays, and it's still hard even to get into state on the relays. I made it in my open event and a relay, the 4 by 1.
I went there last year, and it was one of the greatest experiences that I have ever had. Just the color of the track which is a baby blue, and the amount of people for, what some would say, such a boring event. I ran there one time before which was last year, and it was nerve racking. I wasn't even by myself in an open event either, it was a relay!
This year it is going to be way different. We only have 1 senior going, and he is in three of the events that made it. All of the events that made it are the 400 hurdles, open 100, 4 by 1, and the shuddle hurdle relay. I think it is still going to be fun this year, but the we only have 8 people going, and that's with the alternates. I hope that this is year is as fun or more fun than last year. I hope that maybe I could even place at state and be in the top 8 and go to the finals on saturday.

Photoshop Project
I picked this photo because I like football and I like Drew Brees. I think that the gold coming out looks really cool.
I picked this photo because of the greenery. I like how the first picture the green reflected off the water and then I decolorized it and now just the trees are green and it reminds me of paradise.

School is an awkward place
There are so many awkward things that happen to you when you are in school. Sometimes teachers yell at you for no reason. Sometimes people are talking about things that you probably didn't want to hear. All of these awkward things that happend during school are what makes school such an interesting place. These things are what make school easier to get through. School is one of the most boring things to sit through. Whether its listening to a teach lecture for a half hour about something that you could care less about, or whether its sitting in gym working on pointless skills when you really want to just play the game. When all these boring things are going on sometimes that awkward moment that people have makes going to school worth while and just makes your day.
For instance, there was a time when I was in the library and there is a room that I thought was soundproof and that no one could here you through the outside. So, me being stupid me, I kept saying things about people as they walked by. Then a little later I said hey to someone and they looked at me. I thought to myself, can they hear me? No way. So, I said hey again and they looked at me and said hey back. So, that was one of the awkward moments because everyone that I was saying things too that I thought couldn't hear me, probably heard me. These situations are what makes school so fun.

Ten Guilty Pleasures
I have a list of guilty pleasures. I will start from 10 and then go to 1 to provide some excitement for the reader. Number 10 (drum roll) I eat ice cream. Number 9 I enjoy watching the notebook when I am alone at night and feeling lonely. Number 8 is I like to just lay down and sleep. Number 7 is daydreaming during the school. Number 6 is I like to play piano even though I don't have any practice on it. Number 5 is I enjoy practicing sports during my time off...of sports.
Now we are half way through, have you guessed my number 1 yet? Well, you'll see. Number 4 is that I enjoy tanning, naturally, in the sun. Not any of that fake baking in a tanning bed. That's just not right. I am naturally black so it's not that hard to get a tan. Number 3 is that I enjoy spending time with my amigos. They are fun to hang out with because you never know what we will find to do. Number 2 is that I enjoy girls. They are nice and don't have cooties (that's what I've been told) and they always smell nice and I am somebody who appreciates a good smell. Now, the moment you've all been waiting for. My number 1. This is out of all of my guilty pleasures. This 1 thing that you know about me above all else will change your perspective of me forever, maybe. You have no idea what this is going to be based on the previous nine. You might have thought my number 2 was going to be 1, but you were mistaken. My number 1 guiltiest pleasure is the smell of fresh cut grass on a warm summer's day. It is the greatest smell that you can ever smell in your life. It is the single greatest smell above all smells that you have ever smelled in your life. It will literally blow you back on your butt. It is the greatest smell ever.
