Football's Back!

To all the football fans

Football's Back!

As we all know football is back! And most of us are more than excited, because football season is the best season! You get to gather in front of a big flat screen tv with a crazy amount of food and a beer or your drink of choice in hand gathered by friends in their football jerseys. Some friends routing for the same team and some routing for the other team. But you also have the people that were forced to watch it, the people there because they decided to jump on the bandwagon, and then the people that have no idea what’s going on and don’t know if it’s a basket their waiting for or a goal to be scored. But everyone knows the more people at a football gathering the better.

Among the group of people, you have the person talking about teams that aren’t even playing, the person asking a bunch of questions, the person arguing about a play/ team, the person trashing on the team the majority of the people at the gathering are routing for because they know it’s pissing people off. But we all know when there’s a major play and something big happens every single person in the room is going to jump up, yell, or shift in their seat with their eyes glued to the tv. And my favorite, is when there is a bad play and one guy jumps up, spills his drink, yells at the tv so much that he ends up spitting everywhere. The refs have been killed in many viewers minds every single game.

To all the people that aren’t football fans, yes we know we look ridiculous yelling at the tv as if the players/ mostly refs can hear us and we know you think were obnoxious. But you also don’t understand how exciting is waiting for the game, especially on Sunday nights, putting on your favorite football jersey and gathering with friends. And you also don’t understand how awesome it is to watch your team win and to be able to do that really awful victory dance at the end, hug your friends, and to be able to tell people that that’s your team. So to all my fellow football fans, we’re back and I wish your team the best of luck but just know my team is going to kick your teams ass! Lets go Patriots!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
