How Do You Like It?

At first glance you may not notice anything different, look again. While I was over at John Yoho's house the other night working on my graduation project, I asked if he could show me how to set up a list of links, like I see on everyones blog. So he did and I really didn't do much that night, but today (I had a little extra time because of the snow) I spent about 2 hours making my blog the best it could be. There are a lot of cool features that you can add to your blog and I am trying to take advantage of all of them. Let me know what you think about the updated blog.

This coming Saturday is a bid day for me. The first track meet of my Senior year is taking place, I am excited and nervous at the same time. Excited because it is the first track meet and nervous because I don't know how well I am going to do. I have high expectations for this season, and this first meet will be a small indication as to how I am going to do this season. I say small because I shouldn't judge to much from the first meet, I am not trying to peek at this meet as my main goal is The Outdoor State Championships. It is hard to tell but I don't think I am going to have any personal record breaking throws. While it would be great to start the season off that way it is unlikely, but I plan to be up to A PR by Christmas.

Also this Saturday is the Second annual 10 Buck Ball, this combines two of my favorite things into one, dressing up, and wearing crazy things. Believe me when I say that my Outfit is crazy and looks good, Emma told me it looks too good for the 10 Buck Ball, but I'll wait and see. I like my outfit more than last years in some ways, but in other ways not so much.

The other at SMYDEK, we watched a video about great people who many look up to. This video wasn't about thier accomplishments it was about thier failure. Failure is as much a part of life as success. Success is made in between your failures, Fear of Failure IS the fear to LIVE. Don't forget that.

To end I want to touch on a statement made by Clinton Portis at the Funeral of Sean Taylor. As Portis was talking about how Taylor was always smiling and making people laugh he ended by saying "Whatever you do, do it with all the heart you have." This is a statment I think we all need to take to heart. I personally believe in this and I think the only one you are hurting by not giving it your all is yourself, and if you make the choice to always give it your all remember Sean Taylor, who was more than a Redskin
