Cold Days

I hate cold days like this. There is nothing to do what so ever. So what I do on a day like this, is take a nap. Naps are the best. They help me forget about all the stress from school and help me relax. They are the best when the weather is very cold outside. What I do is when I come back from school I am tired. I do not want to start my homework, so I go to my bed, lay down, and fall asleep. Nothing compares to this. i forget about all the test, quizzes, projects, assignments that I was given. I fall asleep for maybe an hour or more, but the down side is I wake up around seven or eight o'clock. But, naps do have their benefits. They give me the rest and energy that I lost when waking up for school in the morning. One thing I do not understand, is that whenever I wake up from them, I am grouchy and not in the mood for anyone. I do not know why. All in all, naps are the best during these cold days.

It's only weird if it doesn't work

 I did something strange during the Steelers vs Lions game. At first Pittsburgh was up fourteen to zero, but then the Lions started to rally back. I am a little bit of a die hard fan, so I jump out of my seat, yell, and do all kinds of strange things. However, there is a commercial that Sam and I always talk about. It shows a Broncos fan coming out of the basement and thinking to himself that every time he goes down there, they score. He also believes that he has "cracked the code". The end of the commercial says that it is only weird if it does not work. So what I did when we were down twenty-three to twenty is I went to my dad's room. I closed the door maybe two-thirds of the way and turned the lights off while looking at the living room. I would ask my younger brother what would happen during the game. When doing this, we scored a touchdown. I also did it several more times and the Steelers scored a two-point conversion, converted a fourth down and two, and also intercepted the ball. This may seem strange, but always remember, It is only weird if it does not work!

What I would fight for

If I would fight for anything, it would be my family. My family has been through a lot with me. We have been through the hard and tough situations, and we have been through the easy and fun ones. My family is always there for me no matter what the case may be. One key factor leading to this is our communication. That is probably the most important thing that helps us get through things. We communicate a lot, such as over a meal. My parents are very serious about my schooling to. Every day after school, they question us to whether or not we have homework. They always make sure we do it and always want us to study for a test or quiz coming up. At times it is a little irritating, but I eventually will find out that it will hopefully pay off in the future. I do not know what I would do without them.
