Lacrosse

I signed up for lacrosse yesterday and so now for sure I will be playing the summer league and getting better. I also purchased some traditional mesh for my lacrosse stick. And I'll say right now that it is a pain in the behind to deal with. It's the best form of mesh, but requires a lot of maintenance and is not good in inclimate weather, the leather shrinks and becomes a bit brittle, But it also provides unmatchable power and control. So after i string it up, I'll let you know how it goes, but i hope it gives me more of an edge than I have now, because any little thing I can do will help my chance

Football Practice (Again)

Football is becoming more enjoyable as it goes, and after yesterday I am confident that I will be playing. I am the Cougar Safety right now, so I am the strong safety, and there are only 4 total safeties on the entire team. So even if I don't start I will at least get more playing time than I did last season. I have learned most of the Defense, our Cover 2 Flop. In addition I am making progress as a running back and I may see some game time at that position as well. But only time will tell

Straight Mobbing Part 2

Well on Tuesday, we got in Caesar's truck, but we didnt go mobbing we just sat in the parking lot and blasted outrageously loud music, and We had fights in the back of the truck which was pretty fun, Well thats all for this part of the day.

First Day of Football

After the first day of football being today, I'm glad to say i survived, it was a bit harder than I expected but I have been through worse. I left a positive impression on both of the coaches I worked with today, and one of them, my running back coach went so far as to say that if I continue my work ethic, he would find a starting position for me, which gave me a good sense of comfort and welcoming into the Cougar family. Other than that, the only challenge I seem to have encountered is the amount of oxygen at this altitude, it's significantly less than in California, and that's something I'm going to have to work hard to get used to. I am also proud to say that I hit 165 on my bench press max today.

Lacrosse

Another thing to occur since I moved here is that I have taken to the sport of lacrosse, it's a pretty fun sport, but had my parents' friend Sara not taken me to a Colorado Mammoth game, I would have never known it existed. I'm not very good at it right now, the only thing I really have going for me is my speed, but I am getting better and better as the days go on, and come June 1st, I'll be playing for the school's varsity team, if I can make the cut. So that's all about that for now

STR8 M0BB1NG

On Friday, Caesar, Colton, Brandon, Chanse, Celeste, a few others that i can't remember right now, and I decided that during our 4A off period, we'd cruise around in Caesar's truck. We drove around the school a few times but that wasn't very fun, so Caesar took us down by the Aurora Reservoir, and we did some donuts in the dirt and chilled for about a half hour out in the middle of nowhere making jokes and play fighting each other. Colton pretty much destroyed me at wrestling in the dirt, so I'm not going to try that again. So when it came time to go home, Caesar decided it would be a good idea to do a "brake check" and send all of the people in the bed of the truck into each other, and it was pretty humorous because i was in the cab watching the whole time. But all in all it was a good day and we plan on doing it again sometime.

Xbox Live

Ok so one of my favorite things to do here is play Call Of Duty 4 online, if you have played it before, you probably know what I mean when I say it is an awesome game. Anyways, i seem to have a tendency to stay up till 4 a.m. on weekends playing this game. I usually play with Zach, Brandon, Paul, Andrew, and Meghan, but sometimes I'll switch it up a bit.

The Beginning

Well, I have lived here in Colorado for about 5 and a half months, and I'm just now getting around to making a blog, the name is a description of how far I am from California. But check back every now and then to see what I'm up to and leave a comment so I know I'm not wasting my time with this blog.
