MSU GAME

2009-10-17T15:36:00.000-07:00

Michigan State...Homecoming Weekend.....AND WE WON 24-14! it was a fun game and i loved hanging out with Zack too.

sports fan
noun
an enthusiastic devotee of sports

sports⋅man⋅ship

1.	the character, practice, or skill of a sportsman.

2. Fairness, courtesy, being a cheerful loser, etc.

Sports...Teams...Football Players...

To be on a team, you have to give up A TON of sweat, time, and heart. Not only the players, but the coaches too.

To be a sports fan, you simply just have to have money, if you GO to the games, and like the team. BUT GOOD fans are usually supportive, and give motivation. Who can be motivated by explicit words, and phrases like, "You SUCK," "What are you thinking?" etc.

Have you ever tried to play a sport in front of a stadium of people, including those watching on the television? That's pressure! You feel bad enough to your team for making a mistake, but now to have your "fans" yell and boo at you.

Its one thing to be disappointed, but still, have some sportsmanship! or don't call yourself a fan.

At the game, This somewhat elderly woman and her looked to be husband were watching the game. Every time the Spartans made a mistake, they made sure they were yelling or chewing out that player. The players obviously could not hear them, but still, they were quick to point out their mistakes, and for what? Were those "FANS" there all summer when they were training, sweating for the game they love? Were they even at the sidelines every practice, coaching them on how to get better?

Fans need to support and let the coach do the coaching

BUT OVERALL i had a GREAT time :)

sorry its been so long since i've updated, I am now in a traveling soccer team, and will soon be playing Basketball. our team is 2-1-3 and i play for Fruitport Fire. We are pretty good, when we push ourselves, but as you can see we play to their level and keep tieing our oppopnets. I am playing a whole new position and its not too bad, but as Defense i now cannot score :( lol

Anyways

thats about all

BOOK REVIEW

2009-04-04T10:36:00.000-07:00

The book? House of Dark Shadows, by Robert Liparulo. It is the first book in the Dreamhouse Kings series. It was very good. It's about the King Family, they move from L.A to Pinedale. They move into a old fixer-upper house surrounded by woods, and find out fast that its not all smiles. When they enter the house they find big prints in the dirt on the flooring. Xander, the oldest boy, relizeases sounds don't come from the right direction. While Xander and his younger brother are exploring they go into a closet and end up in a locker in their new school. The first night there, they find a man in there house. The next day they lock up everywhere not knowing how he managed to get in. During the night the two boys go wandering through the house, to find a hallway with portals to deathly places. The places are from long ago, and far away places. It is soon becoming his worst nightmare.

I liked this book. It kept you on your toes, and was very suspensful. It did get kinda creepy though, some of the different things that happened, and how different things matched up from the past was really weird. It jumped right into the action from the start. Which was nice, but it didn't explain much. You really have to read the whole book for it to all tie together. There was a big let down in the end, which will make you read the second book in the series, Watcher in the Woods. This book is directed to teens, and Robert Liparulo, the author, did a very nice job. This book tested the boys faith to bring them through to the end. The events that happen sperate the families relations but bring them all closer in the end, when they need to work toether in oder to save one of their family members

Basketball

2009-02-28T14:57:00.000-08:00

Well basketball is done. I'm not sharing our record, because it wasn't anything good. but our season was fun. We had ups and downs, some MAJOR ups and downs. Some GOOD victories and some MISERABLE loses. But I think overall despite our losing record, we made great progress.
Last year we were undefeated with a team of 16 girls, and this year we had 8. We lost some average players, and our top two. Our point guard Shar'Rae, and a post, Dani. So i had to learn to bring the ball up better and some ppl had to move down to post. It was a tiring season too.

Next year we gain Dani back. YAY!

Our last game of the season was very interesting!

It was against Grand Rapids Central, a basically all black school, with lots attitude.
WE showed up and it was kinda scary. i'm not going into detail it will take to long.

ANYWAYS, we got playing it was a very different game. This is a Class A school too, and int he first quater we weren't staying up with themm. 2nd quater we came back and kept with them. kelly and jessica Arrasmith fouled out during the 3rd quater. And so we had 6 girls left 3 of which could foul out any time, and my coach had threats of a technical. In th e fourth quater we were down by six, then tied it up, and then lost by 4 points. My coach told me to go foul a girl to stop the clock and this girl had an atitude so i went up behind, and got a reach. so the girl wasn't happy and we started fighting (no punches) and the ref came over and talked to us, and told us to cool off and stuff. but we ended up loosing. I twould have been by 4 but the ref said relax on the free thorw which means there is 2 shots, well there was only 1 so we missed the rebound and they made another shot. there by losing by 4.
But Soccer is starting now. i REally miss basketball, and my team. half are playing soccer. the other softball, o r nothing at all. Basketball has kept me busy. i don't know how often i can post.

Today I broke up with tyler. I really think i rushed into that relationship, but it didn't hurt me. It hurt a really good friend. I'm lucky enough that after talking with him we are still friends and I didn't damage the friendship we had too much.

Tori. . . I LOVE YOU MEGA MUCH!

Material World

2008-12-28T14:10:00.000-08:00

We went to the mall today and in Kohl's the escalators had stopped working. So you had to walk up and down the stairs or take the elavator. And people were complaining about it. they were complaining about 14 or so steps to go buy more STUFF. just STUFF. When in other countries you walk up and down a mountain, or you have to walk a few miles, for school, WATER, BASIC NECCESITIES! Yet people are complaing about 14 steps to buy STUFF.

HANG IN THERE

2008-12-26T15:52:00.000-08:00

OK. I got a mannequin. You heard right a mannequin. It is a 'kid' mannequin (small) because the male and female ones had profound parts, and that would be awkward to have in my room so yeah besides this one is pretty cool. It has a base too. It was from Steve and Barry's in Holland because they are closing . . Sunday (?).

I am making another post probably, tomorrow or even tonight about Christmas at the VanDam's.

But here is my mannequin . . .

This weekend i went up north to my aunts house. Our Uncle was gone so my cousin and i hung out up there with her and Emily.

SNOW IS FINALLY FALLING!
I LOVE the snow, i love basically all the seasons, but snow is beautiful. Like when, it's all fresh in the front of the house, and on pine trees, and when your going down a big hill on your snowboard! I'm really pumped for snowboarding this year. I might be getting a snowboard tomorrow. Not the prettest thing you seen but, it's my first so it doesn't really matter. And the design is growing on me. Ugly at first site but, :)

ANYWAYS

What to write,

2008-11-06T16:25:00.001-08:00

I'M FINISHED. Basketball conditioning is done! There are 9-10 girls on the team write "try-outs" are next week but with 9 girls, you are guaranteed to make the team so no worries. We had a soccer meeting yesterday, which means the school season is drawing near!!!!! CAN'T WAIT. Basically basketball is to stay in shape, i enjoy the game and all but if i could do soccer year-round i probably would. I enjoy being with my friends fir (starting Monday) 2hours extra. That's always a plus.

About this blog, its . . . . BORING right now, not the posts (you may think those are too) but the layout, etc. That should get better . . .soon. do stick with me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2008-11-05T16:53:00.000-08:00

Today is Tapas Sardars 10th birthday. Tapas Sardar is a little boy from West Bengal, India. He enjoys soccer (YAY) and badminton.
I started sponsering him through Gospel for Asia, at the Isaih project and have sent him 1 letter, I am hoping he responds soon. I find it VERY cool that I can write to him, and keep in touch.

GeOrGiAnA~~ <3

DAY 2

2008-11-04T14:59:00.000-08:00

NOTHING super exciting happened today, it was a regular school day, without sports practice, and yeah thats about it.

OH WAIT, i voted today! In school, of coarse. I am glad that the voting age is 18. A lot of kids picked one fact out of a proposal and based their voting off of that. They didn't take into account any of the other facts. For Allendale High School, Mccain would've won, and both proposals were passed. I don't know who would've been the state representative though.

GeOrGiAnA~~ <3

RE-TRY

2008-11-03T16:14:00.000-08:00

I am hoping this goes better then my last attempt at a blog. We'll see!

Today was Day 4 in our 6-day basketball conditioning. Our freshman team has 10 players. Last year with 13 we went undefeated, hopefully we do good with losing 3 good players.

** Credit goes to my mom for the title, hopefully i will get this blog looking a little better soon but i am out of time, so. . . . .
