Late nights of doing homework are finally starting to catch up with me. It was so hard for me to get out of bed this morning, i hit the snooze like 3 times before i even attempted to get out of bed. so tired everything seems to be half speed this morning. Just wish i could go home and go back to bed and sleep til noon. Oh well ill go home and sleep when i get out of school since i have no home work due tomorrow. I hope that if we are out of school tomorrow that there is alot of snow on the ground to make it worth it.

I can't wait for this day to be over I am looking forward to the weekend. I need to relax and have a lil fun! Ride some horses and hangout with friends. im also excited that spring training starts in just a couple of days. ready to see how the cardinals are going to look, they should be pretty good but they have a big spot to fill in the rotation if carpenter is going to be for the season. Luckly they have young prospects like shelby miller, trevor rosenthal and joe kelly who could possibly step up and fill the void. wow daniel is a really slow typer. it kinda funny actually because he had like a two min head start and ive already have more typed than he does. I think his beard slows him down gets in the way of him seeing the keys. How long is gonna make us type it feels like forever.

My mind is completely blank right now. i got a job yesterday i am going to be a score keeper for the Springfield park board. which is cool for me because i like watching youth sports and getting paid to do so is just a bonus. All i can hear is the tapping of keys on the keyboards and it is enough to drive you crazy. its so annoying. my grandpa fell yesterday and broke his hip and is going to have surgery this morning. Im ready for school to be over so i can go see him, and see how hes doing. once again my mind is blank its so hard to think this early in the morning, i am never going to take a 7 am class ever again. espically an eng class it so hard for me to think on an english level this early in the morning. how long is he going to make us free write my hands are starting to hurt from all the typing i swear im going to have carpultunal when i get older.

My Story

I was riding my black and white paint horse named duke, down the road one day I smelled a delicious smoky flavor. As I turned the corner to go home, I looked out in an open field and saw a big family gathered together having a BBQ. Riding by I couldn’t believe how many cars sat in the drive way, it looked like the parking lot of most churches on Christmas Sunday. I just passed the house when a tall, lanky man with light brown coconut hair stopped me and asked if I would like to come eat with them, since I had nothing to eat since early that morning and it was afternoon at this point I said, “Sure, I could use something to eat.”

Well it was a pretty good game last night with the ravens winning the super bowl, pretty cool to see the best linebacker in NFL history to go out a winner. The 49iners played very well in the second half though it was not enough after an idismal first half. Joe Flacco took home the super bowl mvp trophy however it was the play of the ravens defense late in the fourth quater stoping the 49iners short on fourth and goal that allowed the ravens to get the win. Other than watching the super bowl i had a pretty good weekend hanging out with friends and riding horses.
