"Summer Fun"

Well, it's been a while huh. Plenty of action this summer, and at the same time it's been really boring. During the course of the summer, I have mainly been doing schoolwork. Yep, I have to complete an incomplete so that the college will restore my financial aide, and I can go back in the fall. Other than that, I got a job at a temp. agency, in which I was called only three times. So to make money, I took a siding job with my dad and made $160 in two days.

I will be going to Florida next week from Sunday to Thursday, just something to get away from the neighborhood, ya know? If you don't know, well, last week, me and a few other neighbors got our cars searched by someone. And by that I mean they got into our unlocked cars, and took stuff from us. My next door neighbor got her stereo taken, a guy down the road lost his laptop and sub-woofers, and I lost a CD walkman. I'm quite offended by this. Not that they took my $50 walkman, but that they left my $250 stereo. I myself want to know what the girl next door had that I don't. But, that is my current adventure, dealing with my scared neighbor calling me to make sure no one is trying to break in her house at night. The main thing that scares her is that some lady a little bit away from us was held at gunpoint while the people robbed her house. So as you can tell, I have been out of my comfort zone lately.

But anyways, the boring part of my summer is spent staying up until 2 in the morning watching Arli$$ and American Gladiators, both of which play on ESPN Classic. Speaking of ESPN, a great travesty has occurred. Barry Bonds is now the "Home Run King". When asked if he thought the record was tainted, he replied with a stern NO IT IS NOT. BULLCRAP!!! Whether he is a steroid freak or not is still disputed, but the record is tainted by the fact that nothing has been disproven. It is true that he has not been convicted of the crime, but he has not been set free either. We all saw Bud Selig's reaction to the tying HR, he was just looking around, not clapping, not cheering, but seeing the reaction of the fans. The look on his face tells me that he knows something he hasn't told. I look forward to the day that Major League Baseball strips that title from Barry, and ban him from baseball. Hank Aaron forever!!!

Well, that's about all I have for now. Keep me in your prayers as I am in Florida, and while I try to complete my papers. I do not apologize for what I wrote, because these are all my opinions. If you want to tell me something, then just tell me. We all have opinions and we should state them, as long as no one crosses that invisible line that we all know of. So take it easy everybody.
