Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump (1994)
Forrest Gump is one of my favorite movies ever. He does so many different things and acts like its no big deal. He helped start like 3 businesses and had so my honors. If Forrest Gump was a real person it would be my life goal to meet him. He went through so much as a kid and an adult but kept going the whole time, also he ran for like 2 and a half years straight which is crazy. He was barely even able to get into school and then he got a full scholarship to The University of Alabama. As a child e couldn't even walk straight and then he was able to get a football scholarship. He didn't even want to go into the war and then he won The Medal of Honor.

School

I'm really excited to move on to the high school. We only have 6.5 more days of school left. There has been so much drama and different things that have got me in trouble in the middle school. I already know a lot of the high school coaches and teachers and I'm really happy to have them for my teachers. I know all of the football and basketball coaches good too and the JV coach is really excited to have me for this year. I've went to the basketball camps since I was a little kid and the football camps too. I'm also really happy about the change of scenery because it gets boring walking around the same building and going to the same teachers and classes everyday.

Highschool

Westport, Connecticut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm really excited to go to to the high school next year. I think it will be a lot better than the middle school. A lot of the teachers in the middle school don't like me including some of the principals and in the high school I get a new chance to start over and fresh with my new teachers. Also I'm going to know a lot of seniors and juniors next year because I grew up with them and I've played sports with them like my whole life. I think I am going to get a lot more opportunities in high school to do what I want and get in the groups and classes I want to be in. In the middle school I only got to pick 2 or 3 classes and that was only for this year, in high school I get to pick almost all of my classes every year.

Football Season

Nike Football image 1 | Desktop wallpapers
I cant wait for football this year. I'm so excited because we actually play more than 6 games. Our line was way to small last year but we have two of the biggest kids in our grade that didn't play last year are playing this year so we should run and pass a lot better than we did last year. Our head coach already guaranteed me the starting Wide Receiver spot so now I'm just trying to get bigger and taller for next year. Last year on defense I played Line Backer and I hated it and this year I'm hoping they put me at cornerback or safety. I'm still hoping I return kicks and punts this year because it was one of the most fun things to do in practice and games.

A Little Kid Jumping in Mud

What Fathers (And Mud) Are For - Shaun Groves
The picture is about a little kid jumping into mud. He could have been playing a game or doing an activity at school, or he could have been just jumping in the mud trying to have fun. His mouth was open so he probably got a lot of mud in his mouth and all over himself. Honestly though, I just think he was with some friends and they found a giant mud puddle and he was the first one or the bravest one to jump into the mud puddle. I mean it had to be a pretty deep puddle because almost all of his body was in it or covered in mud already and he still looked like he was going in. He looked like he was having a good time though so that's really all that matters.

Abraham Lincoln with a Stereo

The Corner Soapbox
The picture is very different from others. I think it's about a stereo getting photo shopped in with him. There's no other way possible that he would be with a stereo. Unless he went into a time machine or the radio was sent back in time of made before he was a President of the United States. But there is no such thing as a time traveling machine that was made yet so it had to have been photo shopped in or edited to make it look like he was holding a Stereo listening to music in the 1800's.

Basketball Camps

Nike Basketball Never Stops | The Inspiration Room
This summer I'm going to like 3 or 4 different basketball camps. I got invited to the Webster Grove, a Nike, and a Mizzou basketball camp. The Webster grove camp is for a week but its only a couple hours a day. The Mizzou camp is for 4 or 5 days in the mornings for a couple hours a piece too. But the Nike camp is for a week and I have to stay overnight at the University it is being held at. I'm really excited for the Nike camp because a retired professional will be there helping out but I'm nervous because I have to stay overnight and I wont know anybody there at all. I think the Mizzou camp will be the most fun though because there coach Frank Haith is going to be there watching us.

The Best Book I Ever Read

Unstoppable by Tim Green — Reviews, Discussion, Bookclubs, Lists
One of the best books I've ever read was called Unstoppable. It was about a poor kid who realized they had a talent in football. He was a foster kid and his foster parents died so he went to live with the football coaches family. The coach trained him hard to the point where he was scoring 5 or 6 times a game. The one game he felt a pain in his knee and passed out. The next thing he knew he was in the hospital and his right leg from the knee down was cut off. He had gotten bone cancer and they had to cut his leg off or he wouldn't have survived. He made an amazing comeback with the coaches best friend who had lost a leg in the war too. He learned how to walk, jog, run, and cut on it and by the end of the next football season he was on the kickoff team playing again. I liked the book because the kid went through a lot but kept on going. He lost his real family, his foster family and his leg.

Getting Robbed

ARMED ROBBERY | The Tribune News
Tuesday night when I was sleeping we got robbed. The one day my dad forgets to lock the basement door somebody came and robbed us. The took over $3000 of items from our house. They took my PlayStation, my friends PlayStation, 4 controllers, a whole bunch of games, a 32 inch flat screen off our wall, my dads wallet, my dads Rolex, and my moms purse. Now my mom is terrified of her own house. when we go somewhere she won't even go into the house first. Yesterday afternoon they found my moms wallet and there hoping to find more today. I cant wait to find out who robbed us because there going to put them in jail for a long time. Robbery when somebody is home is the worst crime before murder.

Snow Days

Snow and Warming: Northern Hemisphere could warm further in response to lost snow
If your kids are bored on a snow day there are lots of thing you could let them do. You could let them go outside and sled or build a snow man. Or if there really excited have a snowball fight. If there old enough you could take them to a big hill and let them snowboard or take them to a place to learn how to snowboard or ski. There are lots of different fun things for you kids to do on snow days to make them less boring. or if they feel like staying inside you could rent a movie and watch it and make hot chocolate. But you should make the day about your kid because there are not many snow days in a school year for a kid.

Civil Rights Project

Abbeville Press books | The Civil Rights Movement
I like the civil rights project. I hated doing all the codes and the CODE practice online and would rather do things about history and projects other than codes and typing web. I like learning about the civil rights and how so many people went out of there way and marched and supported the civil rights movement. I know a lot about MLK but I'm still learning some of the things he did to have the civil rights movement passed. Malcolm x was another person who did so much just so African Americans could have the same rights.

Pride

Amazon.com Pride
The movie Prides a great movie about how a group of poor African American boys start a swim team. They are discriminated against but they have the will power to keep going and swimming. Their coach is a great man who was a swimmer in high school but always got treated different because he was black and understands what his swimmers are going through and how much it takes in them to keep going. The swimmers were always messing around and never took anything seriously until they realized what they were doing after their first meet when they came in last. I think it is very unfair on how they are treated during their first meet. No person black or white should be discriminated against because of their skin color, only the way they act. They started to place in a lot of their meets after they started training and stopped messing around. Then when it was all coming together 3 men came in and started wrecking the whole place and when their coach seen them doing it he almost got arrested for beating them all up. The coach suspended himself for setting example for his swimmers. The teams captain coached them during the last meet and they ended up winning it. The coach changed a lot of things by having an all black swimming team. When he knew they would face a lot of problems they worked through them and kept on going. There was a lot of discrimination back then against black people,and I think it is very unfair just because of someone's skin color. Nobody should ever have to go through what that swim team and their coach went through. Pride is a great movie and I think anyone with the opportunity to watch it should.

The Worst Thing a Parent can do

Michelle Suxapingas' high school - Angry German Kid Wiki
I think the worst thing a parent can do is send there kid to a boarding school or force them into doing things. Like if my parents thought they could send me to an all boys school or a boarding school I would move out. Or if they forced me into being in groups or clubs I didn't want to be in then I would participate all the way. Like if they made me join the drama club or something in high school like that, I probably wouldn't show up for it or I would just fail it on purpose.

Breakfast

58 Breakfast Wallpapers | Breakfast Backgrounds
This morning I didn't have breakfast and I'm really hungry. Then I have to wait until about 11 to go eat. My mom woke me up later and I had to be on a rush to get everything done. I'm just going to start using an alarm clock. Even though I cant stand the noise of them. I could really go for some scrambled eggs and toast or some waffles like I normally eat in the morning, but of course my mom had to go and wake me up late. I cant wait until I get home after school because im going to eat so much.

QR Codes

QR Codes
I don't really like the QR  Codes at all. I hated making the QR Codes.It was really boring making them and had to think about things to make them about. The only thing I really liked about the QR Codes was the scavenger hunt and going around the school to try to solve the different codes. I think we should do more scavenger hunts and things like that with the QR Codes but if not I don't want to do anything else to do with codes or QR codes.

Football

Nike Football by oboda7 on deviantART
Football is one of my favorite sports. I hate that we only played 6 games this year though. and that we had like 25 practices before our first game. I think we should have at least played 10 games and had a conference tournament. I played wide receiver and running back on offence and on defense I played outside and middle linebacker. most of the time I hated defense because our team was so small. And then when we could stop another teams drive I returned punts. I miss football a lot since I haven't got to play since October but I still miss basketball more and the seasons only been over a month or so.

The App I Would Keep

iphonus on imgfave
If I could keep any app on the phone I would probably keep the Reparo app. It sounds like it could fix anything. I normally break a lot of stuff so this would help me fix it.  So in class if I broke my pencil or my paper ripped and I was too lazy to get another one or sharpen my pencil I could just use the Reparo app to fix my paper and sharpen my pencil. Or if I ever cracked the screen on the phone I could just use the Reparo app. I think the Reparo app is the most useful app on the phone.

Coding

The mystery of Duqu Framework solved - Securelist
The coding activities are really boring. I get too mad at it when I can't figure one of them out or when it is confusing. I really don't like doing it at all because it gets me too frustrated when I cant figure it out because I don't have a lot of patience and its really boring. I've learned a few things from it like with the making the houses or shapes but for the most part it confuses me a lot. For the next project we do I don't want to do anything with coding.

I'm Not Going to Forget

Child And Dad Royalty Free Stock Images - Image: 2110879
The things that I won't forget when I get older are the crazy things I've done the past couple of years. From the age of 12 to when I become a dad I won't forget what I've done. Like there are lots of uptight parents who are always in their kids business and not wanting them to do the things they did and I don't want to end up like one of those parents. I want my kids to have fun when they're a teen and through there early 20's.
