This next blog is about Mr. Currin being a big deal. Well the answer is that Mr. Currin is a big deal. Mr. Currin is one of my favorite teachers. He is a funny guy who always knows how to put a smile on your face even if you are having a bad day. He is always in a positive mood no matter what and I cannot blame him for being like that, because you want people to remember in a good way not a bad way. My favorite quote from Mr. Currin is “Best Class Ever!” I will probably never ever forget him saying that. He always says this to us every other day for the last block of the day. The reason why he says this is, because he runs the student newspaper called “The Bulldog” and to get us motivated to do our work.  Another thing that I liked about Mr. Currin is that he was a good football coach also. He was my coach for 2 years, but he definitely knew what he was talking about. He was a good role model for the team to follow by, inside and outside the classroom. He’s the type of coach who could figure out any type of schemes that the defense has lined up against our offense. He always tries to find a way to win. I really respect Mr. Currin for what he does and how he does it. I have never had a problem with Mr. Currin and probably never will, but if I ever here someone talking bad about him I would stick up for him in heartbeat. As you can tell I definitely think that Mr. Currin is a big deal to me and I am very sure to many other people as well.

This next blog is about what I love writing about. There are many things that I could write about that I love. I could write about girls, life, or politic, but the one thing I do love to write about is sports. There is always something to write about for sports. You could talk about tennis, swimming, basketball, football, etc. There will always drama when it comes to sports also. You could talk about the locker room and even stuff that happens on the field or court.  Sometimes all the drama can lead to be firing of coaches, players being released, or even coaches or players being suspended. Sports are also, exciting to talk about. I am sure you could go up to more than 60% of guys on this world and talk sports with any of them. Sometimes sports are so exciting that I wish I could be one of those athletes when they take the big shot, make the long field goal kick to make it or making the last big bitch on an even count. Sports give me the chills when I watch them because sports are so unpredictable that you don’t know what’s going to happen. One sport in any city usually helps the city, because if people are down in the dumps people could always fall on a sports team to watch. I know that’s what Oklahoma City did this year when the Thunder started rolling in the playoffs this year. Sports are my favorite thing to write about, because they are to fun not to talk about. If I ever have the opportunity to being involved in sports in any way, I know that I will definitely be a competitor, because now I know what it takes to be an athlete in this day in age.

This next blog will be about the best part about the end of the school year. There are many things that could be good about the end of the year. You could be a senior waiting to graduate, you might want more hours at work or you could be a young kid and just want summer so you could do whatever you want. Well since I am a senior I can’t wait to graduate and get out of this school. I need change and I want it now! I want to meet new people and see how the real world is. Another good thing that it is the end of the school year is that I get to work more hours at work. I love working, because I can get things that my parents can’t get me and when summer comes I will hopefully be working around 40 hours a week. I will be rolling in dough for sure. One more thing that’s good about it being at the end of the school year is that vacation comes closer. I am going on vacation July 12 to July 23. I will be going to Hilton Head South Carolina with the McNamara family. This will be a blast! This will be the first vacation that I will be going on in about 6 years. The last time I went on vacation is when I went to San Antonio to visit my brother in the military. With me being older also, I could be freer on vacation, because my parents trust me to do the right thing. Overall I really hope that the end of the year comes faster, because then I will be free from high school and come closer to becoming an adult. I can’t wait for what the future brings me.

Q-5


For this blog it is a choice blog. This blog I am going to talk about what I am doing in my future. There will be a lot of obstacles in my life and there will be a lot of fun times. This year I will be attending GCC for the next 2 years then hopefully transfer down to a college in the south. The major I will be going for in college is sports management. With a sports management degree you can have a lot of job opportunities. You can do anything with this major when it comes to sports if you have a master’s degree.  You can be a scout, coach, general manager, etc. Hopefully when I do transfer to a school down south and graduate with a master’s degree, I might want a job with the Carolina Panthers or the Charlotte Bobcats. The Panthers are an NFL team and the Bobcats are an NBA team. When I work with one of these teams, I’m going to want to be a scout or a general manager, but I do realize I will have to work my way up the ladder, because that is how it goes nowadays. If this coaching thing does not work out, I will want to start my own paper view or TV show. I won’t say the idea and put it on the web, but I think that this idea could make some big money, because it hasn’t been used yet! Hopefully after that I will be able to retire where I moved down too and get a boat so I could fish and have a nice relaxing time or just live right by the beach. If this pans out to be my future in the next 30 years or 40 years, I will be truly blessed by god.

Q-4


This blog will be about my favorite pop icon. There are many pop icons in the world. You have Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Mark Walberg, Denzel Washington, and etc. My favorite icon of all time has to be Chris Farley. Chris Farley was this big guy who just had a knack to make people laugh whenever he wanted too. He used to be on SNL with Adam Sandler all the time. Saturday Night Live use to be at its finest when he was there with Adam. Chris also made a couple of movies. You may have heard of Tommy Boy which is one of my favorite all time movies. This movie is the complete package with some comedy and realistic fiction. My family always imitates this one part of a movie where he says, “I use to take bear claws 2 at a time and I get them lodged right in this region here!” This part of the movies gets me every time. Probably one of the funniest lines Chris Farley has ever said. It is a shame he committed suicide though. He was into some heavy drugs and alcohol at this time and his life went spiraling downward. Everyone has a bad time in their life, but it is a damn shame that he had to go the way he went. Chris Farley has inspired me in many good ways. He has made me have an outgoing personality, because without that you cannot succeed in life with other people. You have to be a people person in this day in age. Another thing he inspired me with was to do what you think is right cause in the end it is just another day and also a new beginning. He made me not live day by day; he made me change to live in the moment. Overall Chris will never be forgotten in my book  

Q-3


This blog is about the best book I have read for English. My favorite book I read in English was called, “To Kill a Mockingbird”. This book was about a boy named Scout who was six and Jem was ten, they met Dill, a little boy who spent the summer with his aunt who lived next door to the Finches. Dill and Jem become obsessed with the idea of making Boo Radley, the neighborhood recluse, come out of his home. They go through plan after plan, but nothing draws him out. However, these brushes with the neighborhood ghost result in a tentative friendship over time and soon the Finch children realize that Boo Radley deserves to live in peace, so they leave him alone. Scout and Jem's God-like father, Atticus, is a respected and upstanding lawyer in small Maycomb County. When he takes on a case that pits innocent, black Tom Robinson against two dishonest white people, Atticus knows that he will lose, but he has to defend the man or he can't live with himself. Tom Robinson is sent to a work prison to await another trial, but before Atticus can get him to court again, Tom is shot for trying to escape the prison. It seems that the case is finally over and life returns to normal until Halloween night. On the way home from a pageant, Bob Ewell attacks Jem and Scout in the darkness. After Jem's broke her arm,Boo Radley, rescues Scout and her brother. In order to protect Boo's privacy, the sheriff decides that Bob Ewell fell on his own knife while he was struggling with Jem. Boo Radley returns home never to be seen again. This book left an inspiration on me, because this shows me that you should always stand in what you believe in, especially when you know you could prove people wrong.

Q-2


For this blog I am going to talk about my plans this summer. This summer will be different than others. This will be my senior year of summer. There will be a lot of graduation parties I will be attending. It will be a tough one, because some of these people I will not be seeing for a while or maybe in the next couple years. This summer will be an eventful one! I will be working a lot this year. I probably will be working around 40 hours this summer. I will be working at Joey’s Pizzeria in Depew. I make very good money there now, so hopefully I can make a lot more this summer. On July 13th is when my summer actually really starts. I will be going to Hilton Head South Carolina for 9 days with my best friend Gabe McNamara and his family and friends. This will be a vacation to remember. We will be going deep scuba diving, eating very good food, and laying by the beach all day and all night. This is a much needed vacation for me. I have not been on a vacation in 7 years. My last vacation I went on was to San Antonio Texas to visit my brother and we went on the River Walk. It was very pretty. Anyways, the next exciting thing for me this summer is starting my new life and the college life. College life will be interesting. It is like opening a whole other world. There will be new people I meet and of course new girls that I meet. Overall, this summer will definitely be one to remember. I will never forget this summer only, because this will be my legit last fun summer with all my friends. I cannot wait for summer!
