Summer time my friends

Man i can't beleive these words are going to mean so much to myself and all of my friends in the coming weeks/months of life approaching rapidly. It falls on me to be curious on what everyones going to be doing, but i can give you a jump start to my summer plans for a fact should be a memorable one. Although I got no idea on how anything will work itself out I'm always hoping for the good if not the best in life.

First my ventures will be across that stage and finishing the treasured high school years for one last time. Everyone is saying now that it's all over, and we have nothing left for high school. I think differently until monday we still have it all ahead of us with nothing but oppurtunity infront of us. High school is now fading into the memory files and will start to become the "Remember Whens" of a lifetime. Other than that i am pretty stoked for graduation and getting it all done with and startin the summer.

I plan to have quite the summer with my friends trying to drain the last bit of time with them to the brink of dehydration all this before we head off to college and into our own seperate worlds of a new life. Starting it all off with a trip south of the border for some mexican beachs, babes, and hopefully some fun parties down there. A trip of a lifetime someone once said and definutly couldn't pass something like that up so I can't wait i can here the hammack yelling spanish styled lingo towards my way. Taking a nap on the beach listening to the waves crash onto that sandy shore should be great times made and hopefully get into a little trouble, nothing is fun without a little risk in it. After the return to mexico its open to anything from New Braunfels to a little summer baseball action, what can go wrong with that.

The thing i'm waiting for the most is the Frio River, if you have never been take a trip there before you die, it may not have the same affect on your life as it has impacted mine, but the last 16 summers of going there from what i can remember have been a blast nothing ever goes wrong. Some words of advice is not bringing any technology and enjoy your time there doing random stuff as in throwing some football, jumping off huge rocks to the cool river below or pitching a little Trenton Becker style washers. How can anyone go wrong with talking about beating Trenton in a little game of washers. I'm pretty sure that vacation is only as good as the river is that year and typically it's greattimes. The lake as well although it has little water due to the lack of rain in the area, I can't wait for those days of getting on that tube and having the parents pull us 500 MPH through the wake of the boat, jumping into mid air and rolling off skidding your ass on the water slididng all day. How can you not have fun when everyones basic challenge to get you to fall off even if it takes throwing ice at ya.

The bay house, baseball games, and many more stuff going on this summer i hope i have plenty of relax time to post some good stuff on here... if anyone gets on anymore.....


Just Keep Livin'

Thinking of stuff from a new perspective

Ever think of what high school would've been like if you were not associated with sports? I have, what if we were not in the P.I.T the football or basketball games or didnt attend any sporting events at all.

During the senior retreat I was roomed with a member of the band, and I started thinking about this concept late that night. It got me thinking other than having the ocassional class with this person we have totally different ways of high school. Noticing that other than playing at the football games in the band I've yet to see him at any other sporting events, and how different our "Journey" must've been all four years. He wouldnt attend sports as i would not attend a band concert and this made me realize how different our lives have been here at STJ. We both know and have met new people, some he's met and became great friends with people. What would my life have been if we took the other paths of each other? What if we were in each others friends or got to know the same people... How different each situation would've been.

Even though we all say we have became so much closer with our class there will always have been a difinite split between certain people, and maybe we all wonder the same things everyonce in a while. I played hoops, he played an instrument lifestyle splits the way of the journey...

The Swine Flu Pandemic...WTF

I know for sure I'm not the only person totally frustrated by this entire subject, but I'll be the first one to complain on how the entire world is running the operation of spreading the word that the Swine Flu is going to take over. For our sake as a society it will not take over thanks to the well developed immune systems humans have, and it spreading is just like every other common flu virus.

So why's everyone on crazy panic over the dang Swine Flu? Simple It is because we have not found a vaccine for the virus therefore it will spread faster than if we did have one in annual shot package. It's simply rediculous to say that it's going to kill over a million people when studies show that quite a few of your everyday Americans don't go and get flu shots each year. This case is just the newest strain waiting to be found. Is it every two years or so the media starts a big riot on how the World will end on some kind of flu ...(bird flu, mad cow disease...)

Okay that was a starter hit me with some of your own feed back i want what yall have to say...
