ughhhhhhh...kicking field goals rules.

Last week I kicked fields goals, it was amazing. First of, don't get the wrong impression, I am by no means "good" at kicking field goals. I suck. My dream is to someday kick a forty-two yard field goal, but I'm going to have to do some serious calf work if I want to become a legend of the Trinity football field. My passion first came to me when I was watching a Nebraska game. I was sitting there and in the third quarter Dan Titchener revealed a pretty routine 42 yard punt. It looked fun so I drove over with some friends to Trinity Lutheran Church and for a little while we attempted to punt it as far as we could. After the punting became dull, we started working on my one and only love, kicking field goals. I now typically go about once a week to kick field goals, it is awesome.

I am thankful for family and my dog

With Thanksgiving fast approaching I guess it is a good time to focus on what I'm really thankful to have in my life. First and foremost is my family. Although most of the time I don't feel thankful at all to have my parents, I guess they are pretty important. My brothers are the most important thing in my life. In high school my groups of friends have changed many times but I have come to realize that my brothers are always there for me. We are a really close group of brothers and I am truely blessed to have two people in my life who I can tell anything. After my family I guess I am thankful that my ten year old dog hasn't died yet. Her name is Abby and she is a really old mutt who suffers from terrible allergies...I love her. I think this may be her last Thanksgiving before making the move to the "afterlife". But for now I am thankful for her and her terrible allergies and her huge fat stomach... I love my dog.

Hope

Well first of I hope for a lot of things. I hope I go to a good college, I hope I finish my senior year strong, I hope my ACT score will come up and I hope I will keep in touch with my friends from high school. Hope to me doesn't really do much though. Whenever I hope for something it's kinda like I wish for it and when I wish for something, it never seems like I give my full effort to that subject. I've come to realize that hoping or wishing for something to happen, never really gets the job done. The only way to get something done is to do it and because I can't sit around and hope for my ACT score to rise I have to study and work at it. Oh well I guess hope for something is a good thing, but I need to get stuff done, mainly because I am a piece of crap.

HmmmBLAH

I believe a Honda Ruckus is the most efficient way of traveling ever. This summer I want to get a Honda Ruckus, it's kinda like a a moped except about forty five times cooler.(If you have never seen one I believe you should now take the time to visit Google Images and type in Honda Ruckus.) I first became aware of the Honda Ruckus because of MTV's hot show, Rob and Big. In Rob and Big both of the main characters (Rob and Big) drive Ruckus's. The Ruckus's tiny 49cc motor helps the Ruckus get up to speeds of 43 miles an hour. I believe a Ruckus is the most efficient way to travel mainly because they are awesome, but also because of their amazing gas milage(107 mpg!!!!) A new Ruckus costs around $2,000 so hopefully I can save up enough dough to make my Ruckus dream, into a Ruckus reality. This blog probably said Ruckus way to much, but I don't care...Ruckus's rule.
