Gossip
To me gossip is really bad. One thing that happened earlier this week, was that someone said that all the varsity seniors were going to turn in their uniforms. To be honest how that rumor started i dont know. But the rumor is untrue, the seniors love softball and they know that on the field they are a family. Families go through horrible times, and they will learn how to overcome all of their obstacles. With girls there will always be drama and gossip. But if you blow off that gossip, things will be much better in the end. I know that people may not like me, but I like myself to know that what they say doesnt affect me. People can say whatever they want because at the end of the day I am ok with myself to know that their childish behaviors doesnt affect me.

My Genome Project!!
I did my music genome project on Hip Hop. I thought it was going to be an easy project that would take me a week tops. Well I was really wrong. It took me almost 2 weeks and many problems including the whole project deleting twice in a 3 day period of time, and also some of my slides didnt turn out good because by the end I just wanted to be finished with it!! Some of the songs I decided to use was Do da stanky leg, can't believe it, 2 step, pop lock and drop it, right round. I chose those songs because those are the songs that keep me entertained while working on different things both at home and at school. Without music I probably couldnt function!!! HhaHAHHA!!

My Lovely Spring Break!!!
Well while some of you went to Florida or Cancun, I was stuck at home. I had softball everyday during break. I thought it would be horrible, but I was playing the sport I love. I may not have gotten as tan as you guys, but I got in really good shape... We practiced or played games almost everyday. I think it was a very productive spring break because we got to work on what problems we had on and off the field. I got to pitch at the game against East Peoria, I did really well I only walked 2 people, unfortunately we lost, but there was a lot of effort on the field. Thats the best part of the game, is seeing how we can come back from a loss and realize exactly what we need to work on. Softball is my life., and I have always had to play during spring break but other than that I had a great spring break.

My quote is:::: "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."
This boy is Matt Roth, He was a senior last year at Washington Community High School. I look up to Matt in so many ways. He is a good role model, and an even better basketball player. Instead of caring about his own stats, he cared about the team. He made every shot for the team. Matt is an inspiration to anyone, he is such a good person on and off the court. "Play for the name on the front of the jersey, not the back" He was a great addition to the basketball team. On his jersey, there is a number 2 on the shoulder. That number 2 stands for Evan Knoblauch. He was also a senior last year. He died in a car accident that changed everyones lives forever. He was #2 on the field but #1 in our hearts.
My Lenten Promises:
Now, most people think that giving something up for lent will be easy. To me giving up something is extremely hard. I love ND's rice krispy treats alot. So this year I decided to give them up for lent. Unfortunately, I have not succeeded in my hopes of giving them up. During Lent sometimes for me it is hard to give something up. One year, I gave up chocolate milk... Only because we only had chocolate milk on Fridays. But it back fired because Krogers was running a special all during lent for ten for ten chocolate milks so we always had it in the house. One year I thought about giving up school, I was 7 and stupid!! But in all seriousness, I do try to give something up for Lent. I know that deep down God probably will forgive me because I am truly sorry for eating those rice krispy treats at lunch!!!

What do I want to be when I grow up??
When I was really little, I always wanted to be a teacher. But last summer, my best friend got hurt. She tore her ACL, and I wasn't there to help here. I was in Milwaukee, WI the week she got hurt. I felt like she was helpless, just sitting there all alone without anyone. But when I got back, I realized maybe that was God telling me that I wanted to do something involving Therapy. I realized how much my friend loved sports, and she didn't know what she was missing until it was gone. I realized how much I wanted to help people who loved to do sports, but got hurt. I love helping people, especially those who love sports. If I could go into sports medicine that is my main goal. When I saw how hurt my friend was, I just wanted to help her, in any way, shape, or form that I could.
I hope to one day help those who love sports but cannot play them due to injury.
