The ABC's of Mikey B

A. I am an ATHLETE. I play football, hockey, and baseball and enjoy them all. I love competing and doing things which could make me a better ATHLETE.

B. BASEBALL is America’s pastime. Everyone knows how to play BASEBALL and has played it once in their life. Whether it’s in a league or just getting out with your friends and playing a pick- up game BASEBALL is fun at any stage.

C. COKE is one of the greatest drinks of all time. Who doesn’t enjoy an ice cold refreshing coke on a hot summer day? CANDY is another thing that almost everyone loves. Whether it is a Hershey’s bar or Sour Patch Kids candy is a treat to the stomach.

D. DOGS are a man’s best friend. DOGS are always there to make you smile on a bad day and will always care for you and protect you.

F. FOOTBALL is a great sport. I love watching FOOTBALL all weekend. I love college and pro FOOTBALL and also playing the sport. FACEBOOK is almost like a necessity to me now. I enjoy being able to keep in touch with people on the internet. FARMVILLE, I mean come on. Who doesn’t like running a farm from their computer?

G. GRANDPARENTS play a key role in my life. My GRANDPARENTS are very important to me. They show a lot of love and compassion for me and I could not imagine life without them.

H. HOCKEY is my favorite sport in the world. For me my life would be complete if I could play hockey everyday and do nothing else. HOCKEY is a sport that not many can master. A sport which involves you to learn how to skate before you can succeed.

I. ICE CREAM is one of the most delicious foods known to man. There are so many different flavors that you can never get sick of ICE CREAM. It is a treat for the taste buds that never gets old.

J. JOKES are something for me that are hard to go a day without. I love telling jokes and getting people to loosen and up and smile.

K. KNOWLEDGEABLE is a pretty good word to describe me. I am definetley a KNOWLEDGEABLE person. I would say I am a pretty smart person.

L. LAUGHING is such a huge part in my life. I am probably laughing a good third of the day. As people say LAUGHING makes you live longer so I am going to LAUGH as much as I can.

M. MUSIC is a huge part of my life. I listen to so much music, mainly one type of music. Still music is something I definitely couldn’t live without. MONEY is a sign of success in this great world. I love earning MONEY by working. It gives me a sense of responsibility and power.

N. NOTRE DAME is the college I love more than any other college in the world. The beautiful campus there is second to none. The great history of athletics at NOTRE DAME intrigues me even more. I am a huge fan of NOTRE DAME and hope to attend college there someday.

O. OREOS are probably my favorite cookie. Chocolate on the outside with vanilla frosting on the inside is a perfect combination. You can also throw milk into the picture which makes OREOS an out of this world treat.

P. PIZZA is my favorite food in the world. I could eat PIZZA seven days a week, three times a day and it would never get old that's how much I love it. PLAYING the PIANO is something that I enjoy doing. I have never gotten into it very seriously but I have fun fiddling around with the keys and making new sounds. I have even taught my self some songs.

Q. QUILTS are used in my family a lot. Many QUILTS have been made showing family members on them. QUILTS are important to my whole family.

R. The RED WINGS are my favorite professional team. I follow them very closely always watching the games and keeping up on their progress. I also make it down to about three games a year which is always a treat.

S. SHARKS are animals that really fascinate me. There raw power and speed is a deadly combination.

T. TACOS are the greatest Mexican food ever invented. TACOS are great wherever they are made whether it be homemade, at an authentic Mexican restaurant or the famous and delicious TACO Bell.

U. UNIFORMS of sports teams are something I am really interested in. My favorite teams uniform out of all sports as to be the Oregon Ducks football team because they have so many different UNIFORMS.

V. VALENTINE'S DAY is a great little holiday. You get to show your affection for someone and do it secretly.

W. WINGS, not the ones used to fly but the wings which are served at places like Buffalo Wild Wings. A wide variety of sauces whether it be spicy or sweet makes the wings even better. WINNING is something I live for. I do not like to loose. To me WINNING at anything and being the best at whatever you do is what it's all about.

X. X-RAYS are very vital in life. I have had to get X-RAYS a few times. They are very helpful. They can notice something which can help save someones life.

Y. A YO-YO is so much fun to play with. The YO-YO is one of my favorite toys since I was little.

Z. The ZOO has been one of my favorite places to visit for all my life. I love being able to go see all the animals. The ZOO is such a great place.

The High School Blues

High school is an amazing time besides a few disadvantages like waking up at 6:00 and the fact that it's school which is always a little boring. High School is so different then middle school. The day goes by so much quicker; the lunches are so much better and over all its just a boisterous time.

My first two weeks of school have been a little hectic. Getting adjusted to a new school is always tough but high school is no fun and games anymore. No late assignments, no being late for class, and no longer being a big shot of the school which we all were just a year ago. After I got acclimated to high school I have really enjoyed it.

I am pretty glad with the teachers I have. All of them are nice give or take one or two. That myth of getting into high school and having five hours of homework every night has been thrown out my head as the homework income has been pretty reasonable. No seven hundred word essays assigned by my language arts teacher, yet.

One thing about any school that I have been too is that the kids are always friendly and nothing has changed here at Stevenson. I enjoy coming to school and spending time with a great group of kids who are all easy to get along with. I have a lot of classes with friends and since school work always comes first I never talk to them during class. (Okay maybe a few exceptions) Over all though I am keeping on top of my studies getting good grades and having an enjoyable time.

High school, some fear it, some go through it trying to stay out of everyone's way. Not me. I am going to leave my mark at Stevenson High School. I am going to enjoy my time here, make new friends and form new relationships. I am going to enjoy these next four years no doubt about it.
