blog post 2

I can't believe that i am done with the third week of school already. This week was one of the best weeks i had in a while just because of the fact that i got to skate after school everyday till bout 8 at night, came home shower then homework for an hour or two, then head to bed. While skating this week, i got to know some of the good skaters at our school and got a chance to play them in SKATE which was challenging considering the fact they have been skating a lot longer then i have, but it inspired me to work harder and it finally paid off when i beat one of the beasy skaters at our school. I witnessed lots of amazing things in person. It felt as if i was walking a pro's skate video. One of the guys was catching tre flips going at as fast speed and just rolling away like it was nothing, and the other guys hardflips had a lot of pop which gave it height. Earlier today i saw him Ollie of 6 boards that where staked up and it was just mind blow to see someone go that high. A senior at Island high one foot manuel all four of the basketball courts with out falling, and that would have to be the most unbelievable trick i have seen in my life. He also had casper flips on lock and they were steezy. Today would have to be the best skate session in a while because with played a a tournament and now i am the leader for our skate crew. It was a pretty good feeling to end the week with before i have to finish my scrAPES project this weekend so i have less homework next week, which will hopefully give me more skating time.

Summer has finally ended and i have been in school for 3 weeks now. Mr.Sutherland is a pretty cool teacher and one of my favorite teachers this year. He makes english fun and educational at the same time. For Second period i have Mr. Martin who seems to be a pretty cool teacher with a weird sense of humor. Ap Environmental Science with Dr. Griffith's class is also fun, and art is alright. Math with Ms. Harrington is one of the strict classes i have been in in my life. Ap Physic is probably the most difficult class i have taken. School has been tough for me since i am not in the school mode yet, and i am not used to getting lots of homework every night from my AP classes. During the first week of school, i had no time to skate and i was getting nervous and stressing out already. The only homework that i enjoy right now is the english blog post because it lets me let stuff out of my mind freely while i am practicing my typing and writing skills. I feel that junior year is going be time to force myself out of being extremely lazy, cause this year is the most important year if your planing to make it in to a good college. My thought of an Ap classes does not even come close to what i thought it would be. I thought i would just be going at a fast rate then the regular ones but really it tons of studying and homework required to pass the class with good grade. Studying was never really one of my things, instead i would relax the day before the test so that my mind would be fresh during the test. Relaxing also keeps my mind form stressing, which is bad while your taking a big chapter test. I am hoping that i could get myself together before report cards so that i don't disappoint myself anymore than i am now, father more to prove to my parents that skating would not drop my grades in school.

The topics i would like to write about are skating and video games. i would like to write about skating because it is what i do during my weekends. Since i skate a lot, i learn new things that i could blog about each week while i am improving my writing skills. I also would like to blog about video games because there are new games this year that i am looking forward to. After i finish those game i could write a review like blog so other people can get an idea of the game before they buy it. the things i want to improve this year are proof reading, grammar and brain storming. My goal for this class is to be able to pass the SAT testing without any troubles and to decide my future job
