Track is right around the corner and i am ready! anyone else?! Im a hurdler.... and a hurdler gets to do his/her own thing basically so its really fun! I Just hope our season this year is a lot better than last year! Last year was filled with cold, wind, rain, and unhappy people! But when its nice out track is a blast! It feels really good to work out! So just tossin out a blog in hopes God might read it and might think about making it nice out every once and a while. Id sure appreciate it, along with everyone else on the earth.

Prints to Pixels
No more ink, no more paper, no more pens, no more? Is this paper really going under? Am I REALLY done working for this paper for the rest of my life? Possibly not?
I don't this that Seattle newspaper that went under was a totally bad thing. I think it could possibly be a blessing is disguise. Since they are going to the internet there paper is easily accessed, fast to the people's eyes, and saves money due to all the things needed to making a newspaper. But yes, there are several down sides to it going under, but not all is bad.
See for the newspaper's sake, its tons better. Times are changing, and everything is going digital; everything.
I just see this as a way to being the first newspaper online that is just like the actual newspaper. You still have to buy it and whatnot, but everything is the same. Same lay out(altered if needed to fix problems since on internet), same stories, same everything. Minus the cost of everything? This could be a revolution. You could work from home and submit your story as if at the office, but digital. It still gets edited, and checked, and sent to the lay out person, etc. Then that days newspaper would be the main page of the web site. Plus you can see any issue you wanted by putting in the date. If you wanted to have an actual copy, just print it off. Get what I am thinking?
The only downs fall would be that nobody would buy it? I mean since the actual paper went under, why would this one not? I mean it went under for a reason. People didn't like the stories? General ways of the paper? Or just aren't into papers anymore?
It would be a chance, but I think it would be a good gamble. Journalists are going to have to start gambling in times like these since newspapers are not as popular.
Time for a break...
Paper due, three tests, and a quiz you didn't know about. Sounds a lot like the week before spring break.
It seems like the week before spring break, teachers want to cramp a bunch of stuff in that most students will forget by the following Monday when they have to return. Why? Why not continue school as if it was any other day? Maybe some teachers do, but I know some teachers don't. I have 4 tests Friday. .......why?....... because its pre-spring break! I don't really get it but I know its there!
I just wish teachers would continue school as if it is a normal day. It happens before every break. That week is like power week! Make sense? Giving a break because students NEED one, but load work on the week before? As if teachers don't think they deserve it? Granted some don't need it at all because they don't do anything in school anyways, but some do, and maybe teachers don't do that at all and I am just rambling about something that doesn't exist?
Yet again what if it does? Why do teachers do that? If not, then I am just rambling on and on.....

Summer soccer!
so this year i cant play on the U16 team with all of my friends because i am 1 month older than the cut off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (yes.........................i did use exclamation points...........) i am a couple days less than a month over and i cant play. So basically i cant play at all, because there is no U17 team this year...1 because not enough guys.....and 2 we would suck it up a lot. So i am very mad....but i will hopefully be working this summer to make some money! At the new golf course...yet again, hopefully. maybe hit a golf ball or 2 in the process.

Garage sales
Garage sales are funny. A bunch of old people walking around someones driveway looking at all the old junk of someone else deciding if they want to spent the $0.50 for a broken comb. Gathering all your old "treasures" to sell to old people seems funny to me. Putting out whatever you would throw away to get a little money for it. Seems like a smart idea to me. The only thing is, is that its alot of work! But to get some money for all your old junk you dont use, I would do it.
Spring Break
Chicago is right around the corner. Im exited to go to chicago over spring break for choir. It will be very fun messing with friends and having a good time in the ol windy city. I will have to endure some play, and also some other boring stuff but for the most part it will be a blast! Go spring break.
Monkey People
If you see a white president compared to a monkey its funny. You see a black president compared to a monkey its racist. Should it be this way? No. They are both wrong. I dont care if he is black white asian or hispanic, its racist anyways. Thats how every joke is. You say a joke talking about a white persons skin its ok to do. Same joke about a black person 52635167 people will call you racist. Should it be that way? not at all. Its very frustrating to see and hear things like this happen.
