Relaxing Weekend

    

    This weekend, I relaxed and watched college and professional football. Besides doing my regular things like hitting and working out for baseball, I lyed down in my bed and did absolutely nothing. This weekend I wanted to go out with friends and hangout, but I decided I needed this weekend to myself. Most of the time I am very overwhelmed with trying to balance things out, but this weekend I finally got a chance to really relax and mentally rejuvenate. I did not think about going to hit and workout after Friday because Saturday and Sunday I wanted to watch college and professional football. On Saturday I had to work the Notre Dame game, my job was fairly easy I just had to hold the door open in the suites and I got to watch the game as well. There was a television that had the Purdue University versus Michigan State University game and Purdue played great and defeated the number three ranked Michigan State Spartans. 

    During the Notre Dame game, the running back for Notre Dame had a great run up the middle and the linebacker tackled the running back and he did a front flip over him and almost landed it. It was the craziest thing I have ever seen before in a football game with my own eyes. I have played football for ten years and I have never seen someone do a front flip over someone else and almost land it. Another thing from Notre Dame in general is that my buddy Drayk Bowen from Andrean High School has committed there to play both baseball and football! He is a five star linebacker and he is also ranked in baseball as well. I know he will be very successful during his time at Notre Dame and he will do amazing things there. 

    On Sunday, I watched the my Minnesota Vikings take on the Baltimore Ravens and let's just say I was very excited until the fourth quarter hit. Minnesota had total control over Baltimore and then Lamar Jackson being the stud quarterback he is took over and he brought them back and the game went into overtime. I for sure thought the Vikings were going to win big time, but that clearly did not happen because we lost by a field goal in overtime. As soon as the Ravens brought out there field goal unit in I knew Justin Tucker was not going to miss because he is going to be a hall of famer and he has the most points in Ravens history.

Documentary Project Reflection Questions

Wednesday, October 13, 2021 Documentary Project Reflection Questions  1. Was there a specific scene that got to you? Describe and explain how it moved you (Angry? Curious? Delighted? Motivated?). Give a lot of detail, and really dive in to how it affected you. Don’t hold back.  --The scene that had got to me the most was when they had a beautiful coral reef and then they transitioned it to a dying coral reef. I loved seeing the colors of the coral reef and then they switched it to a dying coral reef really got to me most. I am hoping these scientists are able to help save the coral reef because the wildlife need it and we need it. The coral reef is a home for these animals and it helps the people as well because the people fish and need to get food to live as well. The climate change is also a big factor in the coral reef dying and we need to find ways to save the reef.   2. What surprised you? Why do you think it caught you off guard?  --The thing that surprised me was how alive this

Making The Spring Baseball Team

Thursday, October 21, 2021  Making the Spring Baseball Team On Tuesday, October 19th, I had an exit meeting for fall baseball for Purdue University Northwest. It was a quick five minute meeting, but it had me on the balls of my feet. I was so anxious as to whether or not I had made the Spring baseball team. Coach Dave said he was only taking 35 for the whole Spring, but only 20-25 for the travel roster. When coach had called me in at 9:15 a.m. I was starting to get very nervous if I had made both the spring team and the travel roster. I was thinking to myself in a very positive way and I knew I could do it, but it was in coaches hands. Would he take me for both? Coach had started to speak and he asked me, "How do you think the fall went for you?"  I said, "I believe I had a pretty good fall, but I need to work on hitting still." Coach said, "I agree, you also need to work on bunting and maintain your speed." I agreed with coach and he then proceeded to say

Halloween Weekend at Indiana University

 Halloween Weekend at Indiana University Monday, November 1, 2021 Halloween Weekend at Indiana University      On Friday, October 29th, 2021, I left with my best friend Sergio to Indiana University Bloomington for Halloween weekend. The drive down actually was not that bad, we just listened to music and talked the whole three hour drive. As soon as we got down there we met up with one of our buddies that we were staying with Justin. He is on the wakeboard team at Indiana University and he is a sophomore there. He actually went to Purdue University Northwest last year. When we got in his room, we set up the bed and made sure when we got home later that night we were already going to be ready for bed. We also played Mario on his Wii for a little while before we went out to the parties. The worst part about going to Indiana University is that it is such a big campus and you have to walk everywhere you want to go or you buy out a scooter called a "bird."      When we walked the t
