Life

What do we live life for? Does money or things make anyone happy? I am more guilty of this than almost anyone that I know. I feel like there is only one thing that fills me up and makes me feel whole. I have tried a lot of things in my life, a lot of worldly things, but did they ever truly make me happy or fulfilled? No. Not once, I think a common misconception is that Christians are weird or creepy or too intense, but I have met so many people recently that prove that wrong. 100% wrong, I want to live a good Christian life not because I am dating someone that wants me to, but a life that makes me feel good to my own self. I dont want to just be a Christian on Sunday, That is a topic that each person has to figure out on their own- over time. It really is an amazing feeling.

Wow

Well I was sitting in astronomy today thinking about Neil Armstrong and how he was the first man on the moon, since I collect autographs- I naturally think about trying to obtain one of his. I do a little research and to my suprise his sig is the most valuable one of any living person right now. A signed photo of his on a 8x10 photo is averaging around 5 grand. Wow! He stopped signing in 1995 and to this day his sig is super rare! So if you find one, hold onto it!

Boring Tuesday

Today I found out that I will indeed be coaching the new U-10 boys academy team, pretty excited about that and am looking forward to seeing how all of it turns out this year. Today I skipped class and slept till 1, and I really needed it. Kind of a boring day- park and rec activities were canceled and I went to the gym to shoot around a bit, nothing to important.

Superbowl prediction: Giants win by 3. Yeah you heard it right. Pretty crazy I know...

Good Day

Today I saw the Hawks lose to the Blazers in OT, but I did well on autographs- I got Jarrett Jack and LaMarcus Aldridge at the game and I ended up going to the team hotel and getting Greg Oden and Brandon Roy, who are pretty tough to get!

I just want to say on the record that winter is my least favorite season, bring on the summer baseball weather.

It appears that the hawks are also making a run at trying to obtain Pau Gasol, I think that would be awesome. Get rid of Marvin, Childress, Shelden, ZaZa- Whoever it takes except Horford, Joe and Josh. We would start finally looking like a playoff team. Joe, Pau and Josh would be a deadly trio along with Horford to get boards!

This is turning out to be a random blog day, but I just want to say that I love the iphone, and It would be hard to go back to a regular cell. Unlimited text, internet, and talking for around $75 a month is worth it. Ya Dig?

Anyway, I hope everyone has a great night! God Bless!

Being Correct

Today I did something that I rarely do, predict the correct teams to go to the super bowl. Its no surprise the Pats and going, but I took a lot of criticism for picking the New York Giants. The Giants missed a field goal in regulation for the win, but Brett Favre's pick early in overtime gave the kicker another shot. The kicker made a 47 yard try (the longest in Lambeau history) to seal the win and give the "other" Manning something to be proud of. By the way the temperature was at -2 degrees most of the game, NO THANKS. Pretty sure I would scalp my tickets in about 2 seconds, call me a fair weather fan I guess.

South Carolina went to McCain last night with 33 percent, and Huckabee took 30 percent, not a bad showing but he needs to start winning some states.

Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Day, apart from me going to see the Blazers play the Hawks and an extra day off from school, it is a day we choose to honor the life of a great man thats morals and ideals helped change our country for the better. Dr. King wanted everyone to live together in harmony and love just as the bible explains we should.

My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. John 15:12

One thing I would like to do in my life is not be so judging of others and try to treat everyone respectfully and fairly. I hope everyone uses tomorrow to sometime think about how much better the world would be if this was the case.
