Almost Over

It's amzing and unbelieveable how the first semester of school is almost is over. These have been a fast 15 weeks of school. It especially goes by quicker when I only had classes on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and a lab of Fridays. I have been going threw these school days with my boys on the 6th Floor. The buzz we had around the freshman quads was real cool. I mean everywhere we went people would notice us around the campus because we always traveled in packs like wolves. On an average, we would be like ten deep wherever we went. And we went everywhere together. We went to football games, basketball games, to the clubs n parties, out to eat, and all other great places. My boys on the 6th floor was like my family away from home and that meant alot to me because this was my first time going to school away from school and I didn't know nobody except for the people I went to school with back in the day. So to make a bond with some strangers like that is something special and very epic to me. I will always remember that and think back on how we beame so cool with each other like we have known each other for years. This is what college is about though, comin to get a higher learning of eduaction, meeting new people, and going through different experiences. I can't wait to see what the spring semester will bring when I come back from the christmas break. Because if it's anything like the first semester, then it's gojng to be real fun and exciting.

The Big Three

Last year before the 2007 basketball season started, everybody was talking about the big trade that went down in the NBA. The trade was that Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen were traded to the Celtics to be alongside with Paul Pierce. People were saying that the trade wouldn't work because each superstar was selfish and probably wouldn't cooperate well as a great unit. So all during the season, that was the main focus in the NBA last year. Each member of the The Big Three were all stars in the situation and team that they were on. Ray Allen was a former star of the Seattle Supersonics and Kevin Garnett was a star for the former Minnesota Timberwolves so that means that they both were major scoreres for their respective team. When they got together on the Celtics, alot of questions were to be answered. How would they distribute the ball and who would be the person to have the ball in his hands with the game on the line. As the season progressed, the Celtics were running and gunning the whole season and went into the playoffs. They faced the Atlanta Hawks in the first round and made it to the second round against the Cavaliers. They beat them and went to the third round against the Pistons. They beat them to advance to the finals were they would renew a historic rivalry against the Lakers. They won the NBA title and answered all the questions the critics had. Now the question is will they be able to repeat as champions? I was glad to see The Big Three get a championship ring because they didnt on their former teams, so thats what made the championship win so much better to them

Home Sick

I had a nice thanks-giving break. After class, i packed my little things, hit the highway, and drove home for the holiday. When i made it home, I went to get a fresh cut from the barber shop. Then i headed and paid a visit to my cousin's house, whom I am very close to. I mean me and him are like brothers from another mother, even though we are first blood cousins. We were chilling because I was back in town and he was very glad to see me. So we kicked it then I left and told him that I would be back and spend more time with him later on in the week. I amde it home and jus fell out and laid across my bed because I was very happy and glad to be home and so was my mom. Mainly while i was at home, I just rested round the house and got some great sleep. Upon thanks-giving day, I watched my mom prepare the food that we were going to eat for the holiday which was on a thursday this year. I saw good looking food that I love to eat like mac n cheese, dressing, collard greens, patato salad, and fried corn. She had sweets like sweet potato pie and a half portion of caramel cake. On the holiday before we ate, we gave thanks and enjoyed eating our food and watched some great football games. I saw my team the Cowboys win and play well. That friday night, I went to my high school football game because they were in the 5A state playoffs. It was a packed game with a attendance of 7,000 plus and coverage by WLBT news. We lost the game by three, but it was good to be there with my friends i graduated with last year. Then i shot basketball with my cousins and watched some football games on sunday. Then came back to school for the last week of school. I am so home sick right now, I can't wait to go back home.
