my day three day weekend

This week I didn't go to school on Friday because of an unfortunate death in the family. On Friday I went to the funeral and the burial ceremony. I don't really want to talk about it. Its hard for realizing that I will never see my great grandmother alive again. Well after the burial ceremony our whole family went back to the church and had an amazing lunch. After all of that I went back to school for track practice. Then after practice I hung out with a bunch of friends! We all played just dance two! My family song was satisfaction. It was probably the coolest dance too! We had to do a robot type dance it was awesome. That was my Friday.

Then the next morning I woke up at 7 with my mom and did a cycling class at the y with her and bales. After that bales and I shot baskets until all the little ballers came to take over the whole ymca gym. I was scared then I remembered that they get the gym all Saturday. So then bales and I lifted. After that we came back to my house and I had to babysit so bales decided to nap. I was angry. After that we went to taco bell we said our names were scott and griffen.Then we were trying to find soemthing to do and then we couldn't so I went home showered then I called Jason up and we decided to watch the great movie 300 at my house. He brought Colton. After that we went to kum n go to get food and drinks. We watched 300 and messed around a bit then. I couldn't go to sleep so i decided to start in on some homework I finished most of my homework. then I fell asleep.

 So I woke up  around eight and finished the rest of my homework. I then went to work at 10 30 got off at 1 20. I went home for about 20 min then I ran came back home then my family decided to go to the ymca. My dad and I shot baskets. We left the ymca, came back home. Now I am here typing away trying to finish my blog of 300+ words. My dad just decided to go get us Little ceasars pizza. I am pumped!

My Crappy Sunday (the 20th) of February

Well lately the weather has been decent. I have gone for jogs outside during this nice weather! This weekend the temperature starting cooling down and I was getting colder and colder. I was like what is going on? So i curled up in my blankets and fell asleep. Then early this morning I woke up to a pounding noise on the window! I looked out side and saw hail, rain, sleet, or whatever it was hitting my window! Which happens to be right next to my bed! I was angry it woke me up around 8! not to mention I was up until about two because of my 4 year old brother Max. He fell asleep at 4pm and then later on woke up around 11pm. So he just decided to come into my room and "chill" with me. I was like alright but you got to go to sleep. He responded, "alright Alex." Then he picked up my Ipod and started playing the fun, and addicting game Angry Birds. Guess what else Max did. He then decided to turn the volume up all the way! Boy, I was not a happy camper! I faintly remember max putting my Ipod on the charger before i drifted off to sleep. Then when I woke up max was already up before and was playing Angry Birds again! Well when I woke up I felt motivated to do something so I cleaned then attempted to do my homework which failed. Then I went to the ymca ran and shot around. After that I went home,  Max came up to me, he said to me, " Alex, your Ipod is dead." At that same time my mother was talking to my grandmother on the telephone. After she got off she asked me if I wanted to go see my great grandmother. I replied yes why? My mother then told me, "Your great grandmother probably won't make it through the night." So I went with my mother and my other brother Jacob to visit her. We were with my grandfather and his brother and sister. We all talked for about a hour then we all sat down and talked with my great grandmother. Then we all left. I then went home ate and now I have finally started to do my homework! Today has been a crappy day and above all we return to school tomorrow!

Track and Field number 2

It has been pretty crappy weather out lately which forced me to take my track training in doors. I went to the ymca to run Tuesday and Wednesday after basketball. I hate running on the ymca track because of all the turns you have to make, it is hard on the knees. Oh well i just gotta suck it up until track season! Well yesterday and today are nice days and i took advantage of that i did workouts outside both days! I ran out to the country with a friend. We got chased by a dog for a while and then the dog gave up. Talk about conditioning that is the way to go; getting chased by a dog! So this weekend was a great weekend for running and i took full advantage of it! Basketball is coming to an end our last game is Tuesday. Every one should come and watch us beat east! well anyway i am happy and sad for basketball to end. Sad because i love basketball it's one of my favorite sports! I am happy because I get to move on to track my favorite of all the sports i participate in! February is a crappy month with a "love holiday" in it trying to make it better! That "love holiday" was failed to make February better! Track and field makes this month so much better! It cures the terribleness of February! I am pumped for track! This year is going to be a great year I know it! Plus I am going to keep up with my basketball for next year! I can not wait for track and field!  So Tomorrow is valentines day which is a bunch of crap! I hate it! Tomorrow is my last basketball practice and tomorrow is another day closer to track! I am so pumped!

Track and Field

Today is Super Bowl Sunday! One of the greatest days in sports ever. I like watching the Super Bowl the commercials are my favorite part; to tell you the truth. Today I am especially excited because the weather outside is nice enough to actually start running! I am  going to run today! Today I am starting to train for the up coming track and field season! I am excited for track to come! I love to run; it is my life. With track coming, the school days will just start flying by just like they just last year. I love running, once track starts I will be in shape! I will achieve my goals for track this year with a lot of hard work and dedication any thing is possible! I love running track; the experience is amazing! You get to push your self, race against others, and make new friends that share the same passion. I love this sport and being able to run outside! This year for track I am going to run the 2 mile event. I ran it last year; my best time was 11minutes and 14 seconds not too bad for my first year run the 2mile. My last race I was trying to break this personal record. I ended up breaking my foot and not my personal record! I was on my last lap just about to kick and I was on pace to go sub 11minutes and then on the 3rd turn I was a dead sprint! I was going in hot to the finish! Then on the fourth turn i heard a popping noise and i was like on that's not good! I was at half speed that last 100m took me about 15seconds longer than it really should have! I finished with a time of 11minutes and 15 seconds. I was angry because i had two more events that i couldn't run and i didn't get my goal! This year is going to be different I know it will!
