tree-outs!

howdy... well i haven't typed up any bloggage lately so i decided to make an update. Today was the first day of tryouts at Stone Bridge which as many of you probably know by now, i'm trying out for soccer this year. I just remember looking on last year wishing i played and that was most definitely a bad feeling, but at the same time a good feeling. I have to admit it was really nice to have that free time but i did miss going out there and doing it for Stone Bridge in one of the best ways possible. People ask me why i didn't play last year and honestly it comes down to the fact that i didn't want it. I would've forced myself to do something i didn't really want to do and i probably wouldn't be playing soccer at all if i would've pushed myself through that season. Burnout is one of those things you can't understand really unless it's happened to you so im not gonna try to explain any further. On the other hand, tryouts today were pretty fun actually for me. We did running this morning in which i got 100 on the pacer which is swell and then later in the day after school we played some indoors in which i ran very fast on my first play and proceeded to slip and fall very hard on the gymnasium surface without receiving/touching/controlling the ball at all. That was quite embarrassing and would be deemed an epic fail in my book... it does happen to the best of us. All in all today was pretty chill. I watched the Pursuit of Happyness when i came home which has Will Smith in it and i think it's one the best movies of all time and definitely one of Will's best performances. If you haven't seen it then you need to see it.. it's not really a feel good movie but if you make it to the end you'll see life a little differently hopefully, atleast i did. Movies like this one make you realize how blessed we are as people to have all the things we have that we take for granted on a daily basis, and im truely thankful for all my friends and for having such loving parents and support around me in my daily life. Please if you haven't seen it give it a shot, you might just like it! Well this is a pretty long post so i'm gonna stop already and leave you all with some pictars that i just took a few minutes ago. One of them is of my indoor shoe in which aided me slipping and falling and embarrassing myself. Another is of my new sticker job on the old snow plank which my good friend Cody helped me with while watching Rob's fantasy factory... which is a quality show if you haven't indulged yet... and the last is of my crazy and amazing room which is now much cleaner haha. Well good luck all this week and good luck to all trying out for spring sports!!!
thanks for reading..

p.s. jam of the day= New Beginnings by: Jim Brickman
I'm currently listening to this song right now... Jim is a solo piano artist and i truely love his work. I study and do hw to his playing all the time and it's really peaceful and just enjoyable to listen to if you're into piano and relaxing music. I also take pictures to his music if I'm out alone on an artistic excursion by myself. So give it a listen my friends :)

Sour Patch and Trolli Worms

Well 1st things first... today is Kelley Galownia's birthday and i'd just like to wish her a happy birthday!! This weekend has not by any means been a blast sadly. Staying inside all weekend when you should be snowboarding isn't really my idea of fun. Also homework piling up really stresses me out also. Sometimes I feel like there's sooo much pressure on all of us high school students to "perform" all the time and be successful that sometimes it's hard for me to enjoy the simple fun things cause im too busy worrying about the complicated annoying school things that i gotta deal with later. This weekend has most definitely been one of those weekends of just procrastination. The last thing i really wanna do after being sick for 3 days is do homework :(. But that's life i guess... you gotta do the junks ya don't wanna sometimes. Well today a nice little sized pow wow went down at Glory Days in celebration of Kelley's birthday... it was incredibily enjoyable and probably the only highlight of my weekend. Also big ups to my man Cody Andersen, if you haven't met him yet then you should get to know him. All i gotta say is that he's a really swell guy and i have a lot of respect for the man. Anywhos.. im gonna leave you guys with some un-photoshopped Glory Days pictars before i go back to the good old history outlining. Hope everyone had an enjoyable long weekend and feel free to tell me and cool stuff ya did!!!

Jam of the day= The Message by: Grandmaster Flash
...this song's hot! an old funky, techy trancy beat combined with some old school rap flava. Many of you will probably recognize a couple of lines that were sampled in Happy Feet haha. Anyways if you're into some old school style rap that's poetically sophisticated then give it a listen my friends.

Eff Me!!!


Hey goofy goobers!! This is my first legitimate blog post, and 1st of all i have to give big ups to my man Caleb for setting me up, he is pretty much the greatest man alive... Anyhows well today sucked, i wasn't in school because i have a 101 fever and i'm missing a 3 day snowboarding trip in PA because i now have the flu for the 3rd time this season.. flippin sweet! There's nothing worst than being sooo stoked to go ride, and then getting sick. If i had a nice big punching bag i'd be beating the crap out of it right now. But anywhos, gonna leave you all with a nice snowboarding picture just to emphasize my bummed outness.. Well i hope you all have a nice long weekend and i pray that none of you get sick :)
p.s. Whenever i show people my ipod, they seem to like the diversity of the music i listen to, so i've decided that on each blog post that i make im gonna leave a jam of the day, just whatever i'm listening to that i like and i'll share it with you all cause i think music is a big part of life and maybe i'll get you hooked on to an artist that you might've not known before or a super cool song or something hahaha
jam of the day= My Wandering Days Are Over by: Belle & Sebastian
just a chill folky/indie jam, its chill, i dig it

Knew Peace

This is my new blog. I was inspired to make a blog by the greatest man known to man. Caleb Dessalgne (sparechange09.blogspot.com)...basically he saw my awesome pictars and figured a fotoblog would be ideal for me. So he hooked me up. :)
