           Well I just finished watching the Ohio State basketball game. They beat Florida State but I didn’t think they played all that well. Florida State is an okay team but I felt like we could have beaten them by more. I hate how Thadd Matta never subs in players. OSU has at least 3 players that can come off the bench and do just fine in the game. In the second half he only subbed one player in the entire time. We struggled in the second half and I think that a sub or two would have been useful. Like 3 player ended up playing the entire game. I know there are TV timeouts but they need a break. By the end of the game they are so tired that they start to make stupid mistakes. OSU has one of the most talented teams this year but it seems like he isn’t using all of them to their potential. I guess that is okay because they won. They are ranked second and it seems weird that our basketball team is ranked higher than the football team. OSU has always been known as a football school but I guess we are moving to a football and basketball school. That is a good thing but it just seems weird that they are ranked higher than the football team. I have been trying to work on the webwork but I hate them so bad. I only have nine 7 problems left but they are all hard problems. I am going to have to find some help on the rest of it. I am so glad this is the last webwork. They are a waste of my time!

         Well today was a pretty boring one. Nothing much went on at all. It was just a typical Monday. I went to watch House tonight but it wasn’t a new episode. That was a disappointment but it gave me some extra time to get some work done. Well I don’t really know what to talk about. Well it is time that the football season is winding down. Now that football season is coming to an end I will end up going to a lot of movies. During football season I never go to the movies. My friends and I always watch the football games on the weekend so I never get the chance to get to the movies. I love watching football and I could do it all day.  But once bowl season is over it will be nice to get to go to the movies again. I pretty much like all types of movies and it is probably one of my favorite things to do during the winter. I am also pretty excited for Christmas. I can’t believe it is under a month away. It seems like we just had Christmas but it is that time again. It will be so nice to have almost a month break from school. School is a lot more stressful than high school and it will be nice to be able to just relax for a while. This quarter has gone by so fast but I guess that is a good thing. Everyone is always saying that college goes by even faster than high school.

          Well Thanksgiving Break went by so fast. It seems like it just started yesterday and it is already over. School seems like it goes really fast and our breaks seem like they go even faster. But I guess we only have about a week and a half until Christmas break. I cannot wait until Christmas break. However, I am not looking forward to the next week and a half. Finals are going to suck! I hope I can motivate myself to study throughout the week instead of craming right before. I am not too worried about my exams except for my Math exam. There is so much to remember and I know it is going to be really hard. Plus my math exam is at 7 am. I am going to be half asleep for the exam. The good thing is that I only have an exam on Monday and Wednesday.  My other exam is for Engineering 100 is online so I won’t have to study for that one. At least they are spread out a little so I can focus on one at a time. I plan to study all week and weekend for my Math exam and then cram on Monday and Tuesday for my exam on Wednesday. My economics exam is on Wednesday and that is pretty easy for me so I am not as worried about that. I think I will be able to get a good grade on that exam but just studying those two days. The best part of English is that we don’t have an exam! Well that’s my 250 words.

            Well I have been completely lazy and have done no school work so far for school. I have a lot of work to do but I just it is break and I just haven’t had the motivation to do any of it. So I decided to come home early tonight and get some of it done. I wish that I had done some work earlier this week so I wouldn’t have to worry about it but of course that doesn’t happen. Well the Michigan game today was awesome. It felt so good to beat up on Michigan again. There was a Michigan fan in front of us and all of us game him so much crap during the game. It was fun to talk some smack. I thought that the refs were pretty bad. All the unsportsmanlike penalties after we scored touchdowns were ridiculous. Nike man gloves for OSU that makes the block O when they put their hands together and the refs flagged them for it several times. That is crap because Alabama did the same thing in the National Championship and Nike man the gloves for them to wear. They didn’t do anything wrong and I thought that was crap. They also said on TV that the head ref is actually from Michigan so maybe that had something to do with it haha. But it felt really good to beat up on Michigan and OSU will be moving up in the standings with Boise State and LSU losing. I also really liked OSU’s jerseys today. I thought they were pretty cool. Well 66 blogs down, 9 to go!

              I am so tired right now. In the evening I went over to one of my friend’s house to watch the Bengal lose, again. I didn’t get home until about 1 and I didn’t go to be until 2:30. Then I had t get up at 4:30 because I went to Best Buy this morning for their black Friday sale. I got an LED TV for my room and some presents for my family. Even though you have to get up really early it is worth it because you save a lot of money on Christmas presents. So I got home at about 7 and could fall asleep again. So I just watched the early morning shows like Saved by the Bell and of course Sports Center. Saved by the Bell is a great show but I never see it much because it is on so early in the morning. So I watched some football and then I went to the OSU basketball game with my friend and his brother. My friend’s dad has club seat so the seats are really good. We didn’t play the greatest but we still won by a lot and all the seniors from the football team were honored during half time. Then after that we went back to his house and some other s came over and we watched the Oregon game and played some Duty. Now I am home and I can barely stay awake. Now I just need to get some sleep so I have plenty of energy for my first OSU Michigan game!!

            Well we are in between eating and playing games so I decided to write my blog now. It was really nice to eat some home cooked food and I am so full. My grandma makes the best turkey and I ate so much. All the food is homemade and it is all so good. So far we just ate and been looking through the ads but now is about the time all the games come out. We all get pretty competitive and it is a good time. We pretty much play all kinds of games. We will end up playing games the rest of the night and we always heat up all the food later for dinner too. I don’t know why we do because we are all still full from lunch but we still eat anyway. I am really looking forward to the Michigan game on Saturday. I have been to a lot of OSU football games but I have never been to a Michigan game. I am really looking forward to it and I am looking forward to seeing the throwback jerseys. I guess that they are going to have red helmets too. I think that they will be pretty cool. I think that Michigan should wear throwbacks too but it is pretty cool now. I think the throwbacks are cool and that they should do that every Michigan game. Well that’s my 250 words. Everyone enjoy the rest of their Thanksgiving and the rest of break.

Blog 63

            It was really nice to get to see some of my friends from high school today. I skipped my second class today so I could hang out with some of my old friends. But now it is time for Turkey day. Everyone is coming over to our house tomorrow for Thanksgiving and I am really excited for the food and that everyone is coming over. The food is all so good and I am probably going to gain 5 pounds tomorrow. Then after we eat it is time for the games to begin. We all pretty much play about any game and it is always a good time. We always like to pay Euchre and that and pretty much all games get pretty intense. We all always get a little over competitive but that is all part of the fun. I am also looking forward to being able to sleep in tomorrow. This will be the first time in about 2 weeks I will be able to sleep in and catch up on some sleep. I will probably end up taking a nap sometime tomorrow too. Then on Friday night I think I am going to the OSU basketball game. One of my friend’s dad has season tickets in club level. We aren’t sure if we are going for sure or not but I am hoping so. The basketball team is looking really good so far and they have been fun to watch. Well that’s my 250 words. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

             Well today we finished watching BSG. Overall it was pretty good I thought. I don’t really like sci-fi all that much but once I got into it, it wasn’t that bad. I thought that it was an interesting story line. I was kind of confused after watching it last week but I thought that it all came together today. At the beginning I thought it was pretty noble of that guy to stay behind so another civilian could be rescued. There was a lot of though decisions to be made in the show and it made me wonder what would happen if we had to make those decisions in real life. In real life would they make the same decisions or would there be other options. I am sure they make hard decisions but I they haven’t had to make decisions that could cost all of civilization. I thought that the graphics were really good and I thought the fighting scenes were kind of cool. I just thought it was interesting overall. I thought that this show would suck at first but it turned out pretty good. It reminded me of Firefly but in Firefly there wasn’t a war going on. Firefly seemed to be a low budget show and BSG seemed like it had a little more funding. The graphics were so much better and everything seemed a little more modern than Firefly. Firefly seemed like more of a western and BSG just seem like it was more like today’s time. I think BSG was pretty good and I ended up enjoying it even though I am not a big fan of sci-fi.

          Well I just finished watching House. Today’s show was pretty good and I thought it was pretty funny too. I don’t really have much to do this week so I didn’t do any homework. I did finish like 4 problems on the webwork so I guess I did a little something. I am really tired so I am going to try to go to bed pretty soon. I am giving blood tomorrow morning and they say it is important to get a good night sleep before. And you are supposed to have a good breakfast too so I am going to get up a little early tomorrow and eat something. I don’t eat breakfast a lot of the time and if I do I just grab a granola bar or something. I know they say breakfast is the most important meal of the day but I always want to sleep in as late as possible so I don’t really get a chance to eat in the morning. On the weekends and during the summer I always eat something for breakfast because I have time to. Wow this blog is terrible. I just never know what to write about anymore and this blog is really bad. Well we only have two more days until break but I am skipping my 2^nd class on Wednesday so I can go home earlier. I have never skipped class before and it is something I don’t want to do often but our teacher said that it is just going to be a q and a session because so many people will be gone. Well my randomness has finally put me over 250 words!

             I am so glad that we have a short week of school this week. I think this was the first Sunday in a long time that I haven’t have a million things to do for school. Today was really relaxing and I was hoping to get some schoolwork done but that didn’t happen. It was nice to just take a day off. This will be a relaxing week but that won’t happen after this week with finals coming up. I am freshman so I have obviously never been through a final and I am not looking forward to it. But I guess that is a little ways down the road. I am hoping that all my classes will be kind of laid back but they probably won’t. Well I guess English class will be because we are just watching BSG. That will be goof because I am giving blood before class on Tuesday. My high school always had two blood drives a year and I always gave blood because I got to miss class. I would give blood in the morning and just stay down there all day. The teacher that ran it liked me so he never made me go back to class. So I would stay at the drive and eat their food and play cards all day. Well I am really running out of topics for my blogs. Well I guess we only have 15 left to do so I guess I won’t need too many more ideas. Well that put me over 250 words so I am done for the day.

               Well today was a pretty exciting day. The Ohio State football game was really exciting. I was a little nervous but they pulled it out like normal. Although I was pretty angry when Posey dropped that wide open TD pass. I could not believe that he dropped it but it worked out for the best I guess. It was good that they could run some more time off the clock but it seemed like our hopes of winning that game when down the drain when he dropped that pass. We also have a double header with OSU sports tonight. The basketball team also had a game. They played some terrible team so it wasn’t that good of a game but it was fun to see the freshmen get some playing time. We switched between the OSU basketball game and some of the football games so we didn’t see the whole thing. They looked really good tonight and I think that OSU might be the best team in college basketball this year. They have so many good players ready to play. I think that the combination of the seniors and freshman, we will have a great season this year. I think we are the best team this year and it would be great to win a National Championship in basketball. But that’s is a long way down the road. I don’t think that OSU has ever won National Championship in basketball or either maybe they did before my time. I don’t know but it would be great to see them win one.  Well that is my 250 words!

            I am so glad for the weekend. I got no sleep all week and it will be nice to be able to catch up on some sleep. I think I am going to sign up for the blood battle with Michigan. I have given blood like 5 or 6 times now so I don’t mind it as much. I think it would be cool to beat Michigan in another category. I heard today that we went down by 4% or something like that but who knows if that is true or not. I think that the battle with Michigan will compel more people to give blood. I know a lot of people are scared of giving blood but it really isn’t that bad. You feel a little pinch when the needle goes in but other than that it doesn’t hurt at all. Actually I think that the finger prick is probably the worst part! Although whenever I give blood they always have to lay me down. Right after they stick the needle in I feel a little light headed so they lay me down. Then about a minute later I am fine and then the same thing happens when they pull the needle out. I am fine during the middle of it but its just when they put the needle in and take it out. I don’t what it is but it happens every time. If you have never given blood before then you should try it out. The nurses are always really nice and if you ever feel light headed or anything they know what to do. I was really nervous my first time and it seemed really bad, but I knew that was just because of my nerves. Now it isn’t as big of a deal anymore. But if you are giving blood for the first time take a friend with you if you are nervous. Well that’s my 250 words.

            Well today in class we watched Battlestar Galactica (sp?). I have heard of the name of the show before but I never have seen an episode before or heard anything about it. It kind of seems like sci-fi military show or something like that. I kind of reminded me of Firefly. It was kind of like that but in BSG there was a lot of fighting going on. I watched it the whole time but I didn’t exactly pay that close of attention to it. I know that robot girl did something that started a war or I’m assuming that’s what happened. I’m not exactly into shows like this so it is kind of hard for me to pay attention. If a show doesn’t really interest me then my mind seems to kind of drift off. I didn’t really like the show today but I started off hating Firefly but the more Firefly I watched I started not minding it. This isn’t the exact same thing though. This kind of reminds me of Star Trek and I hate that show. I know a lot of people like shows like BSG but I am not one of those people. I don’t know why but I just have never liked those kinds of shows and movies. I like just about all types of movies except for sci-fi movies like this one. Well this one was a TV show but it’s the same idea. Hopefully I can pay a little more attention on Tuesday but that my 250 words so I am all done.

            Well I had a very productive day today! I did almost the entire webwork today, an engineering assignment, the English memo, and my CP paper. And its only 10:30! I normally have a lot to do because I am a terrible procrastinator but that wasn’t really the case this time. I had a math exam on Monday so I spent most of my weekend studying and not doing my homework. Although I could have done more yesterday but with all the excitement of the bomb threat and the OSU basketball game, I didn’t get much done. It feels good to get a lot done and some of it is done a little early. Lately I have been making a to do list on my computer to help me keep track of everything, and I have everything on it for the week checked off! I am really glad that I will have a little time to relax the rest of the week. But I do still need to do the ARP revisions so I guess I’m not completely free just yet. I’m not really sure what else to talk about. The summary of my day didn’t quite take 250 words. I guess I can talk about how excited I am for Thanksgiving Break! Thanksgiving is only a week away. I cannot wait for all the home cooked food and especially my grandma’s turkey. I don’t know what she does but her turkey cannot be matched. I better make sure I work out extra hard at the RPAC next week because there is going to be a lot of eating going on Thursday.

             Well today was filled with excitement! It all started with the bomb threats at school. I was hoping that they would cancel class but that didn’t happen. I am just glad that they didn’t find anything and everything will be back to normal tomorrow. Today was also exciting because the Ohio State basketball team played Florida earlier this evening. It was a pretty close game for a while but Ohio State ended up winning by like 20. OSU looked pretty good today and I hope they can keep it up throughout the season. They are ranked 5^th right now so I have pretty high hopes for them. However, the Big 10 is really tough this year and there are a lot of Big 10 basketball teams in the top 25 this year. Michigan State is ranked 2^nd so the Big 10 has two teams in the top 5. It will be a hard year in the Big 10 but hopefully we can come out on top. Today was also good because I did pretty well on my math exam we took yesterday. I got an 84 on it and that has been the high math midterm grade I have gotten this year. Last week I mostly focused on studying for the midterm so I am kind of behind on the Webwork but hopefully I can get it all done by tomorrow. The webwork this week seems a lot harder to me than the past couple of weeks. I need to find a group to work on it with because that makes it a lot easier. Well that’s 250 words!

             Well I just finished watching the new episode of House. It was pretty good and it was an interesting show today. House is probably one of my favorite shows. I was kind of weird how I started watching House. I was just flipping through the channels when it first came out and I just started watching it and I have been watching it ever since. I usually don’t like shows like it but for some reason I was hooked on House after the first time I watched it. I like it so much because of the mystery of it and it is pretty funny at the same time. I think I kind of liked the show better when his original staff was working for him.  I guess the show wouldn’t be as good if it was the same thing every show. I think changing up his staff helps make it more interesting. Without changing his staff, I think people would have gotten bored with the show. Well I am not really sure what else to talk about. What kind of TV shows does everyone else like to watch? I pretty much like any show that is funny. I watch TBS a lot. I pretty much like all the shows that the air but some of them that I don’t like. I also like the watch the Big Bang Theory. I think all of Sheldon’s little things that he does is really funny. The Office is another one of the shows that I like. It is really stupid but it is funny at the same time. I love all the pranks that they play on Dwight. Well that’s my 250 words!

           Well today was pretty boring compared to yesterday. The Ohio State game was so exciting yesterday but the Bengal’s game was awful again today. The Bengals managed to lose again and drop to 2-7. I am so sick of Carson Palmer. He went from being one of the best QBs in the NFL to the worst. He has so many good receivers this year but he isn’t doing any better with them. I don’t really care as much about the NFL but I do like the Bengals. They were supposed to be really good this year so they have disappointed me this year. I kind of watched the Bengal’s game and studied for my math exam at the same time. I studied a lot today and I think I am ready for the exam tomorrow. Hopefully I am as prepared as I think I am. Well I am looking forward to Tuesday because OSU plays Florida in basketball. It should be a good game and hopefully the Bucks will come out with a win.  I saw the highlights from their game Friday and they looked really good. However, they were playing some terrible team but they still looked good for their first game of the season. I am sure they will be ready to go for the Florida game. I do not like Florida at all so anytime they lose makes me happy. I was really glad they lost to South Carolina yesterday. I like to see Florida have a bad year like they are this year in football. Well that is my 250 words for the day.

Blog 52

             The Ohio State game today was crazy! They didn’t play very well in the first half but they ended up dominating the 2^nd half. It was so loud in the 2^nd half. I think today’s game was even crazier than the Miami game. It is always better when the game is exciting and that’s what today’s game was. Wisconsin scored 83 points today, which is a really crazy score for a football game. Too bad Iowa lost today because they are going to drop pretty far in the polls for next week’s game. That’s okay I guess. Then the weekend after that is Michigan week! I have been to so many Ohio State football games but I have never been to an Ohio State Michigan game. It will be my first Ohio State Michigan game and I am already excited for it. I love to see Ohio State walk all over Michigan and I hope that happens this year too. I know close games are more exciting blowing out Michigan is just as exciting. Last year Ohio State wore those throw back jerseys and they are supposed to do that again this year. I though the throwbacks last year were pretty cool so hopefully this year’s will be cool too. I am sure they will be. That will be a great week. Thanksgiving on Thursday and the Ohio State Michigan game on Saturday. That will be a really fun week and I am looking forward to it. Well my rambling has finally reached 250 words!

            Today was a really busy day and I am glad it is over. I am looking forward to the OSU game tomorrow and College Game day is going to be there this week too. It is supposed to be pretty warm for the game tomorrow too. Today Ohio State had their first basketball game of the season. I cannot believe basketball is starting already. It seems like football season just started. I thought that high school went fast but now I am seeing that college goes even faster. The basketball team won by a lot and I am pretty excited about OSU basketball this year. They are ranked 5^th and they are supposed to be pretty good this year. I went to several Northland tournament games last year and JD Weatherspoon and Jared Sullenger are amazing athletes. I am really glad they both came to OSU. I am really glad that they finally moved the student section to the sides. I think it will make the atmosphere a lot better. I am pretty disappointed I didn’t get basketball tickets. I wanted to get them but they were sold out within like 20 minutes so I didn’t get any. I was pretty disappointed but I guess I can just watch them on TV but I do hope I get to go to at least one game this year. I went to like 5 games last year and it was a lot of fun. I just hope I get to go to a couple games this year too.

            Having today off was so nice and much needed. I finally got to sleep in for the first time in like 2 weeks. It was so nice to not have to get out of bed until I was good and ready. Today was really relaxing and I pretty much got no schoolwork done. I decided that is okay because I actually got a lot of work done yesterday. So I decided it was okay to just take the day off. Tomorrow after my math class my brother and I are going to head to the RPAC and play a little racquetball. I don’t know if anyone else has played but it is a lot of fun. If anyone is looking for something fun to do then racquetball would be a good thing to try out. I have never played before school started this year and it is pretty easy to get used to. And believe it or not, it is actually a pretty good workout too. Although the only bad part about racquetball is sometimes the ball hits you and it hurts so bad. The ball is going so fast and it stings like crazy when you get hit. It also leaves a pretty nice welt too haha. Well hopefully everyone had a good day off. It was really warm today and it is supposed to hit 70 tomorrow. I wish the weather would just stay like this! There is a chance for rain on Saturday but I just hope it holds off until the Ohio State game is over. It will be really nice to be able to go to an OSU football game in Novemeber and not freezing your butt off haha.

             I am so glad that there are no classes tomorrow. I can’t even describe how excited I am to have a break. I have needed a break for a while now and it is nice to finally get one. I scheduled today and I got all my classes scheduled except for Math 153. It was full and I am on the waiting list. I am really hoping that a spot opens up for me. Math is really important for my major and it will put me behind if I can’t take it this quarter. I also do not want to take a quarter off of math because it is so hard to get back into. All I can do is just keep my fingers crossed. Well Friday will be a short day and I am planning on going to my high school’s playoff game again this weekend. They are playing at Troy High School which is a little over an hour from where I live. I actually have an aunt that lives in Troy that I haven’t seen in quite a while. She is probably the sweetest lady you could ever meet. Well tomorrow might be a day off from classes but there is still a lot for me to do. I really want to get a start on some assignments for my classes and I want to study for my math exam, which is on Monday. Hopefully I will be able to balance my studying and my relaxing. I just wish we had Friday off too so I could just take the entire day off tomorrow but that really isn’t an option. Well that’s my 250 and I hope everyone enjoys their day off!

          I cannot wait until tomorrow is over! It is going to be nice to not have class on Thursday! That is really all that I am thinking about right now. Too bad we didn’t have Friday off too but I’m not complaining. I really cannot think of anything interesting to write about. I guess I’ll just be random. I am watching Everybody Loves Raymond right now and it is probably my favorite show. It is such a funny show. I don’t know if anyone else watches it but if you like comedy you would like it. I also really like this weather right now and the rest of the week it is supposed to get close to 70. It was nice to be able to wear shorts today. A lot of people were looking at me like I was crazy earlier today but I thought it was warm enough in the afternoon for shorts. It was a little chilly in the morning but I a man, I can handle it haha. It is really nice not having to bundle up to walk around campus. I would be happy if it stayed in the 70s year round but we know that doesn’t happen in Ohio. It is warm this week so it will probably be really cold next week. It always seems crazy to me how much Ohio’s weather can change in such a short period of time. However I did like last winter because we got a lot of snow and I really like snow. Too bad this year I won’t be having snow days like last year in high school. In high school I was always excited when it was supposed to snow because of that chance that school could be canceled.

         Well I just finished my Common Place paper and I am pretty happy with it. I can’t remember if we are supposed to print out a copy for class. I think we are so I still need to print a copy out. I had an Econ exam today and it was pretty easy. I studied a lot for it and I think I did pretty well on it. Today was a really nice day outside. It was actually pretty warm outside. It was nice not freezing my butt off walking to my classes. I heard it is supposed to be pretty warm out all week. I am so glad because I am just not ready for the cold weather yet. Time changed on Sunday night and it was nice to get the extra hour of sleep but it gets dark at like 5:30 now. I hate how early it gets dark now. I wish daylight savings time was year round. I much rather have it become light out later than for it to be dark at 5. I am really looking forward to Thursday. We don’t have class at all and it is supposed to be up to like 65 on Thursday. I have always lived in the country so I like to be outside a lot. I also can’t wait to sleep in on Thursday. It will be nice to catch up on some sleep before the weekend. It does kind of suck because I have to do some online lecture thing for one of my classes but I guess it won’t be that bad. I am hoping to get some schoolwork done on Thursday too but there is no guarantee that will happen. I hope it will but I am not going to get my hopes up.

            Today wasn’t a very exciting day for me. I went out to eat with my family this afternoon after church and that was fun. We went to Texas Roadhouse and it was really good. I did a lot of studying for my midterm tomorrow and I think I am pretty good to go. Well I don’t know what else to talk about so I’ll talk about how much I like roller coasters. For our senior trip last year my class went to Cedar Point and it was a blast. It was the first time I have been there in a couple years and I had so much fun. I love riding roller coasters. I think my top two roller coasters from Cedar Point were the Millennium Force, The Maverick, and The Raptor. I rode the Dragster and I’m not going to lie, it was pretty lame. We stood in line for like 2 hours for a 15 second ride. Sure it was exciting to go so fast but you go up a hill and back down and you are done. It seems like a waste to wait in line that long for a ride that short. I don’t really like the swinging ships and all that there though. I just like to ride the roller coasters. The worst part of riding a roller coaster is the climb to the top. I hate it so much. You are going so slow and the anticipation is just killer. I hate looking over the edge and seeing how high up you are but once you start down the hill you forget all about that. I just like the thrill of the roller coasters. I pretty much rode every roller coaster there that day except for the one where you have to stand up. That one didn’t seem fun but I rode the three I mentioned earlier twice. I am hoping to take another trip up there next summer.

             Well today seemed like it went really fast. I am so tired and I haven’t gotten any sleep since last weekend. I can barely stay awake and I came home early tonight and I think I am just going to go to bed. College has really changed my sleeping schedule a lot. There is just so much to do and so little time. It seems like I am getting no sleep all week and find myself trying to catch up on the weekend. I have an exam on Monday so I will be doing a lot of studying tomorrow. I went to my high school’s football game last night and it snowed during the game! I had like 5 layers on and I stayed pretty warm until the 4^th quarter. It was just the first round of the playoffs and we were up by a lot so we left a little early. It seems so weird to have to watch the games in the stands this year and not being on the field during the game. I have really missed playing football this year. I had so much fun over the four years I played it was a great experience. I still remember how nervous I was starting my first varsity game. It was a huge rush. But after the first couple plays you don’t even think about it even more. By my senior year the nerves didn’t really bother me anymore. My senior year was a lot of fun but I missed a couple games because of a sprained ankle. That sucked but it was still a lot of fun.

            Well my Title for my paper was Pete Rose: In or Out. I completely made it up as I was writing it on the board and at first I thought it was pretty bad. But in the feedback I got mixed results. It was like half 10s and half like 1s. It seemed liked if people knew what I was referring to they liked it. I am going to keep it for now but let me know what you think of it.

            Is Pete Rose a Hall of Fame player or a Hall of Fame Cheater? Pete Rose was one of the greatest players to ever play the game of Baseball. In his 24 year career he had over 4,000 hits, 1300 RBI’s, and 200 stolen bases in his career. Not only that but he also has 160 homeruns and a career batting average of .303. He won three World Series Rings, one MVP Award, two Gold Gloves, and made 17 All-Star appearances at 5 different positions. All of Pete Rose’s amazing accomplishment ends up being overlooked because of the one mistake that he made. He is seen as a cheater because he bet on games when he was the manager of the Cincinnati Reds.. That is the one and only reason why he is not in the Hall of Fame. Debates about whether Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame are still going on today. Pete Rose was one of the greatest players to ever play the game and he made a mistake after his playing career was over. His mistake did not change his playing stats and he should be in the Hall of Fame.

           Today is taking forever. I hate Thursday so much. I hate 4 classes on Thursday and it seems like it is never going to end. The good thing is that all was a couple Thursday s off this quarter. We have next Thursday off and I am so looking forward to it. I will get to sleep in and just relax the whole day. Then we have the Thursday of Thanksgiving off. I love Thanksgiving because of all the food. All of the food is so good and it is fun getting together with my family. My dad’s side of the family is pretty crazy and it is always a good time. We always play Euchre and it always get pretty intense. Some of us, including me know how to stack the deck so we always cut the deck before we deal. I think Euchre is a really fun card game to play. A lot of people don’t know how to play and they should all learn how. I also liked to play Monopoly but no one really ever wants to play with me. They all say it takes too long but we will normally play on Thanksgiving. My family eats and then we just play games the rest of the day. It is a lot of fun and I am looking forward to it. Plus we will have a much needed break from school, so I am really looking forward to it. Well that’s my 250 words for the day.

       Well today I wrote my Commonplace paper. I am hoping that I did everything correctly but it seems pretty open so I think that I did. I also just realized that in one week tomorrow we don’t have class. I think that it is Veterans Day and we don’t have any classes. I am really looking forward to it. I am also really glad that it is on a Thursday because my Thursdays suck. I have 4 classes on Thursday and it always takes forever. I start at 9:30 and I’m not done until 5:18. It is awful. I do have like an hour between each class so I do get a little break but it is still pretty bad. I am looking forward to the weekend but I have an exam on Monday so I am going to have to do a lot of studying over the weekend. Actually I have an exam the next two Mondays so I will have to get my studying done over the weekend. I never want to do school work over the weekend but I always have to now. In high school I pretty much never had to do homework on the weekends but I have had to every weekend so far. I get out early on Fridays so I wish I could motivate myself to just get all of it done on Friday so I don’t have to worry about it the rest of the weekend. That never happens though. I always wait until Sunday. Well that’s 250 words so I am done.

      It was really nice not having class today! I got done at 10:18 today and it was so nice. I was hoping to get a lot of work done today but that didn’t work out that well. I did get a couple assignments done but no more than I would have gotten done if we had class. But that’s okay because it was really nice to have a little break. Even though I didn’t get as much homework done as I would have liked to, I did take a much needed nap! I took about an hour nap this afternoon and it was awesome. I can’t remember the last time that I got to take a nap. It was nice to take a nap but it took a while to get motivated to do some homework after that. I was actually hoping to get the entire weeks homework out of the way but I did get a decent amount of it done. I just wish I wasn’t such a procrastinator. Well I was watching the news earlier today and there is actually a chance of snow of Friday! I couldn’t believe it. It just seems like it was in the 90’s last week. I sure hope it doesn’t snow because I am not ready for the cold weather yet. I do like snow but I just don’t like the cold. I wish it could snow but still be warm outside. I guess I don’t mind the cold as much if it snows. And I have realized that Christmas is not even two months away! Time is going by so quickly!

         I am so glad that there is no class tomorrow. It seems like other people’s classes get cancelled but never mine. This my first class that has got cancelled and I am so glad. Tomorrow I have class from 9:30 to 10:18 and I am done for the day. It is probably going to be the best day. I am hoping to get most if my word done for the week so I can take an easy the rest of the week. I am also thinking a nap would be great tomorrow but I guess we will see how it works out. Yesterday I was working pretty hard on Webwork 5 to only find out it isn’t due this week. I am glad because I have a pretty good start on it. This webwork is only 15 problems that is good but that probably means they are extremely hard. This week isn’t near as busy as last week was for me. It feels so good not to have a million things to do this week. I just saw a commercial for the Due Date movie and it looks pretty funny. Alan for the Hangover is in it so it has to be funny. I have to say the Hangover was hilarious. It seems weird it came out over a year and a half ago. I haven’t watched it in a while and I think I should watch it again sometime. I really like seeing movies. I also pretty much like all types of movies except horror movies. I just think they are stupid but the Hangover was one of my favorite comedies
