First off, I did end up seeing x-men first class. It was like all x-men movies, honestly pretty stupid but pretty dang entertaining. I always end up talking about the mutations, like what I would do with them, or just if they are dumb or cool. Like the girl Angel in first class, what a stupid power. Why even have her on the bad guys side, she is not going to doing anything worthwhile. See what I mean. Oh well, I have to have some kind of nerdy thing to say every blog or two.
On that note, Javier is going to win the Voice. I hate it, because his voice is technically way better than everyone else's, but he is like the classic American Idol style with way too many runs, which doesn't make for good records. I want someone who sounds original to win, someone I would actually consider purchasing music from with their record deal. Alright, call me a dork, but I think I am done with movie and Reality TV comments for the day.
Alright, basketball. I have a lot to work on before I head to college. I need to have qualities that stand out on the court, and I can't afford to blend into just the average of players. I am pretty happy with my shot, the jump under it will come with my leg workouts. So will quickness on my drives. My ballhandling is pretty good. My defense needs improvement, something that will need to be worked on in the next few months, as I am just getting to the point where I can work on it. I also need to work on passing, but it is hard to do passing drills on your own. My inside shots need dramatic improvement. I cannot finish, and I know it is because I haven't been able to drive for 8 months, but it definitely needs refined. So yeah I have a nice big agenda, and of course I cannot afford to be content with any skill that I have, so I just need to focus on improving every day at something. Good luck? I'll work for it.(Coconut head would be proud of me haha)
So I went to George Fox this week for an event called Genesis, which is basically just registration and a few orientation things. Honestly, it was pretty boring. Lots of lecture sessions, whether it was about financial aid and work study programs, student life on campus, or residential life(yes residential life was different than student life). Anyway, I thought one of the lectures was cool, because the teacher was stoked out of his mind, but other than that, a lot of stuff I had learned before at events and online. Oh well, the point is I got all registered for classes next year, which was good.
One more thing, I may have said this before, but I don't like the little icebreaker games people play in groups. I'm not going to make friends with people playing "I have never" in a group of 20. You want to be my friend, let's hang out, play basketball or something, some fun activity or just chilling is fine, but let's not play goofy games. Maybe that is just me, but I don't really find a lot of joy in playing little icebreakers. I am just getting to the point where I want to go to college and settle in, do my thing. I am ready to be done with events and stuff. Let's get down to business.
That is good for now
