Basketball Dinner
I woke up at my normal time today. Around 9 AM. I read a little bit and then came downstairs to eat breakfast. I moved my car out of my Dad’s way, then helped him get the boat out of the backyard. He went hunting with our dog Wilson today. I showered for the first time in a couple of days. It felt pretty good. Then I read the Hunger Games some more. It is starting to get pretty good. After...

Snowboarding Adventures
I woke up early today to go snowboarding with my family. I was really tired because I stayed up late last night going to the movies. On the car ride up we played the “do you know who sings this song” game. I’m pretty good at it. Apparently somebody fell asleep while driving and ran into a tree. I wonder if the driver is all right. It slowed up traffic. At the beginning of the day...

Rain Football
This is my first post from my phone and it is late so it will be short. I played my guitar and NCAA football this morning. Then I went to a friends for a little while. We then went to meet some other friends and play football in the pooring rain. I read them a different friend came over. We went to see tinker tailor soldier spy or something like that. I know this post was pathetic but I am very...

Parking Lots
I slept in a little bit today since I have been up a little early the past couple of days. I didn’t sleep in as much as most people my age would consider “sleeping in” (I woke up around 9:30). But it felt good. I looked around the internet and watched T.V. for a couple of hours. Man is the internet an overly effective time waster. Then I ate breakfast and played NCAA football....

Cinema Walks
I woke up a little earlier than normal today in order to take my dog on a walk with my Mom, Sister, and Aunt. It was a fun walk. 3.6 miles total. Watching dogs run around and being outside is a good way to get a little bit of exercise since I do not have access to a gym when I am not at school. After that we went to a movie (or cinema as it says in the title, I think cinema is a much less used...

Christmas Day
Happy christmas. I have decided to go with the European “Happy” instead of “Merry” today. I don’t know why. I just like being different. We woke up relatively early to open presents. We started with our stockings then moved onto the other presents. I mostly got cool and useful clothes. I also got a Kindle Fire which is really fun and I am very excited about it. After...

Christmas Eve
Today is christmas eve. I love christmas eve. Christmas is the only holiday awesome enough to get a secondary “eve” holiday. It has almost everything christmas has. Awesome movies, music, family, food. It just lacks the presents. Except the one we get to open every christmas eve. Which is always pajamas. Except this year. My Mom forgot which one she wrapped was pajamas so I opened some...

Christmas Wrapping
I finally wrapped christmas presents today! I only have one left to wrap tomorrow. Today was pretty low key. I just wrapped, played the piano, watched How I Met Your Mother, listened to music, and watched The Holiday. The next few posts will probably be short too, due to the holidays. Happy eve of christmas eve! ML3

Christmas Parade
Today I finished my christmas shopping with my sister. It is nice to have it all done now I just need to wrap it all. Then I started my next season in NCAA football 2011. My first in the Big Ten, I have high hopes for this season. After that I went to my old high school to kick field goals with my friend. I didn’t beat my previous best. i only got a 25 yarder. I blame it on the cold. We then...

Christmas Shopping
Today I played basketball for 3 hours. It was pretty fun, though I was having some shooting issues and got blisters on my feet. My sister came home today so we went on our annual christmas shopping expedition. I actually enjoy christmas shopping. The mall is all lit up and it helps me get in the christmas mood. We pretty much finished shopping for my mom today and are going to shop for my dad...

The Dentist
Today was less productive than I hoped it would be. I have a procrastinating problem. Ironically, I plan on fixing that next quarter. I think I actually will though because my grades were not where I would like them to be last quarter. But today I procrastinated looking for internships. I really need to get on this. Besides procrastinating (or maybe during procrastinating), I did some laundry and...

The Start
I already have a written journal where I talk about some of the various thoughts or major events in my life. So this is going to be a place where I talk about my daily life. It will be boring, fun, exciting, and dull, as my life is. So here we go. Since today is a day where I actually got around to creating a blog, it stands to reason that   it was not the most exciting of days. I have been home...
