Blog 70

Dear future English 110 students,
Some advice that I would like to give you for when you take this class is to stay on top of your blogs.  Do not skip any of them.  They are super easy completion points I recommend to spend about an hour on Sundays and write the week’s blogs out so you do not have to worry about it.  Trust me it is a great strategy, and it is the one that I started using about halfway through.  Another piece of advice that I would like to leave you with is to get your comments done early.  When I mean early I mean about halfway through the quarter you should be done.  There is then no stress on you for when finals week comes around.  The comments are super easy to get done.  About a week or two into the quarter go to one person’s blog and comment on each blog.  It doesn’t matter if you do not have anything smart to say just say what you feel about it.  Comment on each blog of theirs then go to a new person and do that.  In all I think I only commented on about four peoples blogs because when I would comment I would just destroy their blog.  It was easy, fast, and efficient.  Trust me you want to do this.  The last piece of advice I want to leave you with is to go to the writing center as soon as you can.  You get one point of extra credit to go get help on anything concerning writing for twenty minutes.

So I am writing my fifth blog of the day today, and I am very bored of it.  Do you like how I write out The Ohio University in my blog instead of just saying OSU?  It is because I am trying to add as many unnecessary words into my blog so I can get to the two hundred and fifty word requirement as quick as I can.  Well anyway today was the day that Jim Tressel resigned and I have to say I am not surprised.  It was bound to happen even though we all love him so much.  Ill be hopefully looking forward to a great season with Urban Meyer as our new head coach.  On another side not I just found out today that Tottenham’s manager Harry Redknapp might be the new manager of Chelsea because of how well he has been doing with a team that isn’t exactly star studded.  Also Berbatov is rumored to transfer to Tottneham because he isn’t getting any playing time with Manchester United and I really hope he does.  Manchester United is also rumored to get Luka Modric from Tottenham.  He is a really skilled and fast central midfielder and that is the place that Manchester United is lacking in the most.  Michael Carrick just inst fast enough for the spot and Modric is a lot better.  I only need about thirty more words I am so excited.  Then I can start on my last blog, the one that is directed towards the future student for what they should do.

When I was home for Memorial Day Weekend it has become official that my brother is going backpacking through Europe with his girlfriend before he goes to medical school.  He is leaving tomorrow morning at two am and I have no clue where he plans on going.  Apparently his plan is to stay until he runs out of money and I don’t really know how long that will take considering after the plane ticket he has rough two grand to spend there.  He could last quite a bit on that.  Also my roommate has fallen asleep in the back seat and I thought it was rather humorous so I decided to put it in this blog.  On a side note I think I have decided to get in shape for this summer and try out for The Ohio State University’s club soccer.  I played soccer in high school for William Mason High School and one of my team mate’s from high school plays so I think I can make it.  Also I played that same team mate in my club league, I played for Cincinnati United and he played for Thunder United and it was for the winner of our division (premier division) and we won three to zero.  So hopefully from this year with out playing consistent soccer I will still have a lot of my touch.  I played a few times at the cage near JO south and I was on a intramural team for winter and this quarter.  Right now my team is in the playoffs.

For when my first year in college is over I have been trying to find a summer job.  For the past two years I have worked a variety of jobs for The Beach Waterpark, and I have been recommended for a supervisor position but I turned it down because they have to work every single day which is something im not trying to do because I want to have something of a social life during the summer.  So naturally I went back The Beach looking for a job and they gave me one on the spot but then I realized that I could not attend the mandatory Orientation and Dry Run days so I told them and they said that in order for them to officially give me a job that I had to attend both.  But on both days I had either my brother college graduation or a wedding for my dad’s very close friend.  So I told them this and they still responded with the same bullshit answer and expected me to come.  I didn’t go to the stupid Beach mandatory days and I emailed them back just to make sure I don’t have a job, but those immature bosses didn’t even email me back.  So now im looking for a new job I have applied to: Kitchen collection, Nike Outlet, Crocs, jockey, Spaulding, Sperrys, Mason Community Center, Marvin Gardens, Crooked Tree Golf Course, and Sketchers.  The only company to call me back was Sketchers and that was for a full time job so I did not qualify for the job.

Yesterday I watched the movie Bridesmaids, it was very very very hilarious.  I almost cried during the movie because of how funny it was.  My favorite part was after they were eating at the really shady Brazilian restaurant and they all got food poisoning in the extremely fancy wedding dress store.  When Megan, Doug’s sister,  really needed to poop but one of the other bridesmaids was already puking in the toilet so she took a dump in the sink of the fancy store.  Then when another one of the bridesmaids puked on top of the girl who was puking in the toilet it was just so funny.  Then to top it all off on top of all that the bride to be was in this very expensive and one of a kind wedding dress and she needed to crap.  But the only bathroom was full so she sprinted across the street in the wedding dress but only made it about half way before she started to poop in her pants…. On the street in the wedding dress.  It was so hilarious and disgusting I loved it.  The movie was in generally very funny and you couldn’t help but feel bad for the main character that was going through a very rough time in her life, but even during this she made it hilarious.  There weren’t really any famous actors or actresses in the movie and I think that because they were all rather unknown it made it a little more funnier.  Overall, I would highly recommend it.

Today is May 30, 2011 and it is really hot outside.  It is unbelievably hot out, I am sweating while on my way back to The Ohio State University and yes I am blogging while I take this one and a half our trip.  Oh look!  A semi truck just passed us and we are going seventy miles per hour!  That is soooo crazy I can not believe it.  This ride is really boring; I think I will count the number of Volkswagen Beetles that I see.  I am taking my roommate up to OSU as well and we play a game where if you see a bunch buggy then you get to punch the other guy.  A stupid guy in a neon green Camry just cut us off that asshole. There are so many bad drivers out on the streets.  I read an article that if every driver were to take the written test again seven out of ten would fail.  That is so horrible!  But I have to say I would probably be one of those seven because although I am an angry driver I am not a good driver.  I once crashed my car into my friends car when we were playing Nerf Wars for our school.  Some of you might know this as dart wars or nerf tag or whatever but it was a fun game to play when I was a senior.  Anyway I rammed into the back of his car and caused five thousand dollars worth of damage to my car and only seven hundred and fifty dollars to my friends.

Blog 64: Dimitar Berbatov

Well since I can blog about anything I will blog about what I can most easily talk about and that is soccer.  I will be specifically blogging about my favorite soccer player Dimitar Berbatov.  He is my favorite soccer player be he has this way of looking like he is not trying at all while he is out on the field.  He has been called out about this multiple times but when statistics are shown how much he runs in a game it completely destroys this perception.  He has said in interviews that when he does tricks or tries to get around players or tries to trap a ball that if it looks natural and if it looks “lazy” then that he has been doing his job outside of the game.  Meaning he has been practicing it long and hard enough that it comes natural to him.  He gets a lot of rap about being lazy and not of being Manchester United quality, but everyone that thinks that are complete idiots.  If he was so lazy how could he have won the golden boot award when he only played half the number of games?  Also, after he was left out of the bench for the Champions League Final I hope he transfers to another team in the EPL.  Manchester United will still be my favorite team but I will always be a fan of Berbatov.  I hope that he either goes to Totenham Hot Spurs, Everton, Fulham, or Aston Villa.  At all those teams he will be the star.
