The Little Lulu Show!

My roommate and I somehow got on the conversation about show and we can remember watching it as little kids. We have been watching different episodes for an hour now. I used to love this show, I would watch it all the time at my grandmother's house. I have seen every episode at least twice because before they stopped showing it they used to show rerun after rerun. I miss this show!

Road Trip

 So it's been quite a while since I last posted. My team left thursday morning for a long basketball road trip and just got back last night at three thirty in the morning.. or I guess I should say this morning.
We couldn't get our team bus for some reason so there was no wireless on the way there or back, and our hotels internet was not working either. I couldn't get any homework done because I needed the internet to do it. The trip was ten hours long and we couldn't do anything but talk, sleep and watch movies, so that's all we did. That wasn't the only problem of the weekend either. Our team played seven out of eight bad quarters and we lost both games. We played a couple of the worst games we played all season. So we aren't in first in our league. But we still get a bye into playoffs because we still finished second, so we can make up for it next week when playoffs come and hopefully we''ll come home with the banner! We leave on Wednesday morning.

Controversial Win?

   The presentation of Blake Griffin's dunk was definatly very creative. I love Blake Griffin too, he's one of my favourite players, but I think Javale Mcgee's dunk deserved the win, it was amazing. I can't believe I'm saying this but Griffin barely even jumped over the car, he jumped over the end of the hood. In an article on this link it said that it's possible barely anyone else in the world could do Mcgee's dunk!


"Chris Webber said it was going to be a "space age" dunk and this was definitely outside the realm of anything seen before in the Dunk Contest.
McGee brought out a second basket for his first dunk. With Chris Webber acting as his Vince McMahon-esque hype man. He missed he missed several attempts, but put down the dunk before time expired.
The TNT crew mused that, with his wingspan, it's possible McGee is the only person on earth who could do that dunk. Kenny Smith called it the "third degree" of difficulty he'd ever seen in his life."

What do you guys think, who shoulda won??

Classes

 Have you ever sat at the back of a theatre class with two to three hundred or more people in it. There is always the same people in pretty much every class. I'll start at the front. There is the people that are really smart and seem really interested and engaged in what the teacher is talking about...even though sometimes I'm pretty sure the proffesseur stops speaking english half way through their rant. These people get the front few seats everyday because they have been sitting there since eight thirty in the morning and go until about three in the afternoon. They are usually good people to ask for help on a tough assignment because they always know what they are doing. Then there is that one person that always interrupts the proffesseur to tell them they made a small mistake on the board that everyone knows was there. This person is also the one that isn't afraid to ask questions or answer the proffesseurs questions out loud in front of the whole class. Don't get me wrong, I admire how they aren't afraid to speak out and ask a question, but the obvious corrections and questions are really unnecessary.
There is a couple that I see everyday (or I'm assuming they are a couple). They cuddle up together and just sleep, in class. Then there is the people on Facebook all class, the people browsing the internet,people constantly texting and the people doing the assignment that is due half an hour after class. I never understood why they don't just not come to class and do that at home seeing how they aren't paying attention anyways. There's also this one group of people where a couple of them come in late almost everyday... and somehow they always seem to be sitting somewhere's near me. They talk and laugh the whole class and it drives me crazy because it makes it you can't hear and pay attention to the slides that you get to see for thirty seconds before it's changed...Then there is everyone else. Who most often pay complete attention, but sometimes just can't seem to pay attention, and find ourselves on Facebook, browsing or whatever else keeps us entertained and awake.
Sorry for the long post, that took a lot longer to say than I thought it would...next time you're in a big class, look around I bet you'll see people doing things really similar!

Senior's Night

Hey everyone, so this is my first real post. I'm really starting to admire all you bloggers because I never realized how hard it actually is to post a blog everyday. Hopefully I'll be able to work my way up to be as good as the rest of you. Anyways the reason why I haven't posted yet is because yesterday my team was playing a very important basketball game. It was against the team that we were tied with for first in our league and was also our seniors night where we were saying goodbye to our graduating players. The team we were playing has won the last few championships too. We were ahead the whole game but it was close the whole way through. With five seconds left we were only winning by two, but we got the ball and they fouled us with .7 seconds left. We made a foul shot and ended up winning by three. It was an intense game and we are now in first! We play them again this weekend, so should be a good game!
