It's the End of the World as We know It

I just thought it'd be fun to scare everyone with that title. Hehe. I'm not actually planning on the world ending anytime soon. Life is pretty good right now. I started lifting with the football team because I want to get stronger. It's already working, which is awesome. I'm going to need to be a whole lot stronger than I currently am for West Point. I also have been doing pushups every morning when I wake up, and every night before I go to sleep. I'm kind of proud of my progress so far as this is the best I have ever done with a New Year's resolution. Our basketball team is currently second in the league and doing very well, especially when you consider the fact that we have 2 starting freshman, and one of them is the second leading scorer.

One event I am really looking forward to is Lil' Sibs weekend at Marrietta in February. I'm sure we have a ton of musical stuff, but I don't care. I am going to visit my sister along with at least one of my younger brothers. Last year was such a blast I can't imagine not going this year.

Pittsburgh is once again in the Super Bowl. I don't want to start talking about a dynasty or any of that crap they did with the Patriots, because I absolutely abhor the Patriots. I just think that it's awesome that they are there again especially when they have been predicted to lose in both playoff games thus far by quite a few people. I personally feel that we have the edge over Green Bay, but I know it will be a great game, and I'm looking forward to it.

I can't really think of much else to write about now, but I will attempt to post more often, no that is not one of my New Year's resolutions, so no promises.

Back to the Grindstone

That's exactly what I feel like I'm doing, going back to the grindstone. Christmas break was wonderful this year, spending time with family, having nerf wars, hanging out with Alaina's family, etc. I couldn't have asked for a more fun and relaxing time. Then of course came the homework that I had to do before we had to go back to school. I was proud of myself as this year I did about half of the homework before the last night. School...is a drag. I'm constantly tired, and wish that midterms were never invented. Today went well, but I have Calc, and English tomorrow. We had a 2 hour delay today, so my A.P. Bio exam is moved to Tuesday. Yay, another 5 days to wait to study.

I also had my birthday last week. 18, this is weird. Alaina is planning to take me out for my birthday on Friday. I chose Roadhouse because it's my favorite. We are also going to the basketbasll game in Willard which should be fun because they're our rival in Basketball and we have a fairly good team this year. All in all, life is crazy again. Hopefully I'll remember to post more often...maybe.
