The End

Sadly I have to say that this is by last blog and school is coming to an end.  This year has not been a particularly hard year for me and I have enjoyed it very much. The year started off just as everyone told me it would, hard.  As the days progressed I began to adapt to the work load of high-school and managing  my time. There are many things I will miss and many fun times I had this years so to sum them up I made a list of my favorites.

1) Mr, Neil sneaking up and Caroline, Amelia, Prem, and I to find out we were playing games and not doing our homework.  I still never know how we never saw him coming even when were facing the door.

2) Our Geometry class debates or arguments with Mr. Cecere.  For example Mr. Cecere gave us an example that "all cats have four legs"(to confusing to tell you how we got to that) with Christopher and Gantt talking about all the 3 or 2 legged cats they had seen.

3) Mr. Millers comebacks.  I will always miss Cantey thinking he has out smarted Mr. Miller only to get put in his place.

4) Mr. Walker chugging Pepsi upside down in class.

5)  Mrs. Kirk always saying how we are the "fast class".  When we had a sub one day we had finished early and the sub was confused on how we went through the material so fast, she then went and said, "Oh wait yall are that weird class."

6) Mr. Vitali arguing politics with our entire class.

To conclude, I will miss all of my teachers this year and am excited to the new teachers and memories will be made next year.

The Avengers Experience

This past weekend Mac, Christopher, Ray, Thomas, Gantt, TJ, and me when to go see The Avengers.  I was very excited about going to the movie because I had only heard good things about it.  Me and Thomas went ahead of everyone else to see if there were tickets left for the 7:00 showing, sadly they were all sold out.  We all then decided we would just go to the 9:00 showing even though it was in 3D.  Me and Matthew were a little mad about this because the last time we went to go see a movie in 3D we had headaches for a week.  To pass the time till 9 me and Thomas went back to his house and watched TV and played xbox.  One it was about 9 Thomas and I headed to the movies.  When we got there we had to almost twice the price just for some plastic 3D glasses.  Once inside we had to meet up with everyone.  After about 10 minutes going through the massive line we finally found them and went into the movie.  Once the movie started we all put on our 3D and glasses and ready to see if this movie actually lived up to the hype.  Like I feared watching in 3D caused almost all of us to occasional have to take of our glasses because the glasses would hurt your eyes.  Besides the whole 3D part I actually enjoyed this movie very much.  The movie was a bit slow in the beginning but things really picked up in the end.  Overall I would say go and see The Avengers, just not in 3D.       

Minecraft for Xbox

Minecraft is a game about placing blocks to build anything you can imagine, and this Wednesday it came out for xbox.  Matthew, Thomas and I had played his game for about a year or two on PC.  We were so we very excited that we no longer had to lean over the keyboard and play, but instead just lay on the couch and build.  Cody, Matthew, Thomas, and I all bought the game the first day it came out and started a world together.  Since Matthew, Thomas and I were, well “veterans” we had to show Cody the ropes.  To start off in minecraft you have to start gathering resources (wood, stone, dirt, iron, coal, and over 300 more things). The reason minecraft is my favorite game is there is no objective, you get to build what ever you want.  I also love the sense of accomplishment you get form seeing an idea in you head to seeing it progress right in front of you eyes.  


At first when you here that the game is only blocks you think what you could build would be very limited.  This however is not the case at all.  People have build giant cities, scale model of the death star, Rome, and the list goes on.  I will post below some of the greatest creations on this game and challenge you to open your mind and not to think of the limitations but possibilities.
