Twitter for President!

Twitter is a new hot social media tool people use everyday. Everybody has Twitter, from the average Joe to the A list superstars. Now a lot of political members are using Twitter to get in touch with people. If you have Twitter you can get feedback from others, but many political party members are receiving negative feedback. How you can tell is that they have people who monitor tweets are rate them either negative, positive, or neutral. President Obama’s tweet feedback is a negative 3-1 ratio. It’s said that Obama is receiving more negative feedback on Twitter than on news coverages. Ron Paul, a 2012 president candidate, is receiving the best coverage. He has only 15% of negative feedback toward him. He is by far the most popular candidate.
I can relate to this article, because I am a Twitter user and I see a lot of people bad mouthing celebrities or even others. I’ve heard many talking about how bad Obama is, so this article did not surprise me. I don’t really pay much attention to politics, so I don’t favor one person over the other, but many people hate the race to become the president. I would be one of those people, because that is the only thing on the television now.

This Movie is a great movie. One of my all time favorites. It's based off a true story of how one team had enormous pressure on their shoulders to win the State Football Championship. Will It that pressure be lifted? They have the talent, and they have the will. Will they win it?

How to Tie a Tie on Prezi

Being Grateful

I am very grateful for many things in my life. I'm thankful for being in good health. I was a newborn when I had RSV Virus. I almost didn't make it, and when I did, doctors said that I would have asthma and Bronchitious I was released from the hospital on Christmas day, and I have neither of those things which really makes it easier to compete in sports. I am very thankful for all of my family members and friends, because I know that they care a lot about me. I'm thankful for living in a country that people are risking their lives for our freedom. I am thankful that I have food to eat each day. I am thankful for the small things in life that get me through each day or moment.

The Haunted House

I love halloween myths and stories, and my favorite one I've heard was about the Haunted House. There were alleged stories that serious murders took place in this house. Many years later these people bought the house and knew about he murders, but thought the house was perfectly fine. When they moved in and settle down, weird things started happening. Each night they would hear people talking downstairs in the storage room, and even heard screams in the night.
    Eventually things got much worst, but people kept sticking it out. That was until they heard footsteps in the middle of the night. The husband got up, thinking somebody broke it, but he didn't see anybody. When he returned to his room, his wife had a knife through her body and was dead in their bed. As he looked around he saw a ghostly figure standing in the doorway. He held a jar and it was the souls of the people he killed. The face the husband noticed first was his wife's face. Next the ghost took the life of the husband. A few weeks later, a police officer was called to check up on the husband and wife since they have not paid any bill and there was no activity at the house. The Officer walk into the house and when he reach the bedroom, he saw there was a enormous amount of blood on the bed and the floor, but the bodies were never found.

Old people on FB

A while ago, my mother was set up with Facebook, Thanks to my sister. At first she spend a little time on it, but it was okay. Recently, she is a Facebook addict. She is constantly on it, and at times it's very annoying. I have to use facebook from my ipod, because there is no way I am able to get on our computer. There are many times when I ask her to do something or if we can go out and get some food or something and she says, "Yeah, Just a second." Sadly those seconds turn to long minutes. There are a bunch of times when I want to do homework on the computer, and I have to wait a long to get on. It truly frustrates me.

   The last previous year, things have gotten much worst. Whenever I cannot do things at home or if I just plain get bored, I go up the street about six houses to my grandparents house. For a while I was able to do computer on their labtop or even their desktop. My mom soon ruined it that by setting up my grandparents on Facebook. All they know how to do is use Facebook and Farmville.  I think the concept of Farmville is really dumb, but not my grandma. My grandpa thought it was dumb, until he did it himself now they are both addicted to it along with my mom. It's really weird, because I used to watch football games with my grandpa. We always used to yell at the television rooting for our team, and now he's yelling at the computer, because something isn't working the way he wants them to. Although it's very annoying, I'm glad they are experimenting with technology.

What I do on Weekends

This weekend as well as the last four weekends have pretty much been the same thing. On Saturdays, I get up at 6:00 and lift weights at the school before our morning stretches with the football team. I go home, shower, and then I go out to eat with my grandparents. After I eat, I go hang out with my friends and maybe fit a few rounds of disc. We sit around play Madden 12, watch some college football games, and go outside for a bit as well.  Sunday's I take a trip to the Rec center and workout or play basketball. After that my whole day is devoted to watching NFL football. I normally watch the games with my grandparents and yell at our Vikings to do a little better. My weekends are the same every week, but I wouldn't change them for anything.

Where I Would Go

If I could travel to any city in the world, I would choose Egypt. I would visit the tombs and the Great Sphinx. I would go there, because I think it's amazing how they could build all of that so many years ago. I think the Egyptians are interesting.

The 9/11 Attacks

I remember being in Kindergarten and our teacher was trying to tell us what happened, but nobody really understood since we were little kids. I went home that night and I remember my parents watching to news and nothing but the 9/11 attacks were on Tv. The footage was played so many times I can still see the footage right now. 9/11 was truly an American tragedy. It's hard to believe that it happened 10 years ago, and all the thanks should go out to those who severed during 9/11.

Technology is Everywhere!

One thing I could not live without is my cell phone. I use it to call people I need to get a hold of. It allows me to take it anywhere we want. Technology has changed society greatly over the years. People would always send letter to communicate, but now all we have to do is get on the computer and send it directly over the internet. I would never let technology replace reunions or meetings. It wouldn't be the same if you used Skype while having Christmas with your relatives. It makes it much more special if you are there in person. Technology has made us obsessed, because people are always checking Facebook or Twitter for the smallest things in people's lives. In a way, I would agree that technology advances have made us lazy, but we are smarter and more efficient with the new use of technology.

What Summer Vacation?

I usually don't go on vacation, but as a family we go do many things throughout the summer. One thing our family always do is go to the figure 8 races in Coon Rapids. There are a ton of people that attend the races. A very large majority of them know my dad, because my dad grew up in Coon Rapids as a kid. Another thing I did this summer was attend the Central Football Team Camp. As a Carroll football team, we go down there and we play other and possible better schools to prepare for the football season. We had to go against the 4-A State Champions, Dowling Catholic. We played a lot of quality teams there that were a challenge for us such as, Johnston, North Scott, Dowling, and many more. This camp was three days long, and we were busy all day long. What I remember the most was the fantastic food they had in the dinning hall. It was a long and hard camp, but it was well worth it.
