So, yet again I said I would post the next day and failed to do so. There isn’t really anything I can say except that I’m sorry and I’ll try to fix that. Like usually considering I took forever to update this I finally have a lot of things to mention.
I have a new was I wanna try and do something so for those of you that actually read this I’d like feedback (Which basically means If i like how it looks I’ll decide since no one else will).
The Rundown
1.0 The Lucky Card
So I’m pretty sure I haven’t mentioned this but I have this lucky card see… It brings me lucky when I need it, note by it is my Lucky Card. There is a story behind it so rather then tell you its magical powers in action I’ll first mention the story.
At Missouri Boy’s State I was in a intense game of Texas Hold Em’. In order for me to win, I needed to have a Queen pop out of the deck, and it did. I didn’t win anything except the round but it still made me feel good. Later on in the game I needed a heart for a flush. The River came and it happened to be yet again the Queen of Hearts. Realizing that the same card helped me twice we ended the game. Later on in the day I was approach by my roommate who had the Queen of Hearts in hand. He handed it to me and said I think this thing likes you. Since then I’ve always carried it whenever I needed luck on my side.
I’ve currently been carrying it everyday I have a test. I’ve been surprised and I’ve gotten at least a 85% on my test(I’ve gotten all A’s except for the 85%). However, the one day I forgot to grab it I ended up getting a 50% on my Physics test, so i take that as a sign. I’ve also gave the card to Kirsten to borrow the magical powers of it and she raised her Test score from a C to a B. I’m not one to be superstitious, but its just worked and I’m gonna stick with it.
1.1 The Presidential Election
I’m sure most of you are aware, but the Election is close around the corner. October 8th is the cut off for registration in Missouri. I unfortunately, will not be able to vote due to my age but if you are reading this and are age 18 or older you should register before its to late and let your voice be heard.
I could go on to say how I support Obama/Biden and how you should vote for him, but I respect your views and opinions on the matters and will not try and persuade you to vote one way.
1.2 Andy’s Party
Also this would be a great time to say that Andy celebrated his birthday and by far i think I laughed the most I ever had in that amount of time. Andy, Dan, and myself were just goofing off with the Wii, it was fun lol.
1.3 Strained Quad
And with every awesome day comes complete pain! Ended up straining my quad in a game of football we had at Andy’s house. I felt it pull and i knew it was bad. I tried to tough it out and i ended up playing QB the rest of the day lol. For those of you that don’t know my hands are extremely small so gripping the ball is near impossible.
1.4 School
So School’s first quarter is almost over and I should be doing good, I had a really big drop in my Physics class because I failed a test. For those of you that are going but Jeff! you said with your lucky card you don’t get below a 85%. That’s still true, I forgot the card that day and you can see why I believe in it now.
1.5 General Music & Freshman (+ the awesome Sophomore ;])
I know I just mentioned school but General Music deserves it’s own little section. I’m pretty sure I’m one of the only 3 seniors in the class, followed by about maybe 3 juniors, a handful of Sophomore, and the rest are Freshman. Most are cool, there is one Freshman Thomas who annoys the hell out of me. I seriously have come super close to just knocking him out. Also there is this girl in my class, named Cortney who is thank god pretty awesome in my book. If it wasn’t for her and Aaron I seriously would not be able to deal with this class.
1.6 MLB Postseason
AL Division Series
Rays Vs. White Soxs; Winner: Rays
Angels Vs. Red Soxs; Winner: Angels
NL Division Series
Cubs Vs. Dodgers; Winner: Dodgers
Phillies Vs. Brewers; Winner: Phillies
These are easy to predict. we’ll see the Rays win their first series in the post season and the Angels overcoming the Defending champs. In the national league we’ll see the Cubs choke yet again and the Brewers will be too worn out to do anything.
League Championship Series
Angels Vs. Rays; Winner: Rays
Dodgers Vs. Phillies; Winner: Phillies
The Rays/Angels series is hard to call because I have never seen the Rays in pressure but I have faith with Longoria they’ll come through. I got the Phillies beating the Dodgers easily.
World Series
Rays Vs. Phillies; Winner: Rays
No Matter who comes from the American League there in no team in the National League who can handle them. We’ll see the Rays win their first World Series in the first chance they get.
