General Talk

         Well today we finished our third week of school!  Time is already flying by, it seems like we just started back yesterday.  We have been having a pretty good year so far, not a lot of homework, but we always got that one teacher who likes to really PILE IT ON.  And this year it is Mrs. Hernard, my English teacher.  In the past couple of weeks I have had double the amount of work from her then all of my other teachers combined, its complete ludicrous!  With that said, I must let you know how big of a deal it is to say that I have more work from my English teacher then I do from my math teacher Mrs. Moore.  Mrs. Moore is a great lady and wants us to succeed in life, but geez, she can really load you down with the work.  She used to teach college math courses in Alabama I believe and the work load she gives us was probably about what she gave her college students!        
           Now I would like to tell you a little bit about the sport I enjoy the most, basketball.  I currently play for the varsity team at school and enjoy my position as power forward.  I think the position explains itself, I like to power, forwards.  When i play this sport I try my best to give it everything I have, whether it be blocking, rebounding, or the occasional basket.  But scoring is not what my position is about, I'm there to do the dirty work, if there is a loose ball, I need to be the first one on the floor getting that ball, or if someone is about to have a wide open lay up, I need to be the one to deny that ball and send it flying towards the other end of the court.  Enough about me, basketball is ALL about the team.  For the past about five years, we have had many of the same people on our team growing stronger and getting better as a team every year.  My JV team last year had an amazing opportunity to make it all way to state and win it all.  This year my Varsity team WILL win state for the first time in many years, as well as next year.  Be expecting a great season from our JV and Varsity boys Basketball this year!  See you at the games.
