Today I had my 8 yr old cousin sat with me in church. I should have known it was going to be an adventure. She asked me for some pen and paper so that she could draw during the service. So I gave her what she requested and from time to time I would glance to see what she was drawing. As I was sitting there listening I looked over to see her drawing pictures of some people. Two of the people she was drawing were girls who had smiley faces and dresses on, then there was this one girl who was ly...

This is for all the people who said that the Astros would win... I TOLD YOU SO!!!! I told you they would lose. They always lose the big one. But, I must admit they did get farther than I thought. But they didn't go to the World Series... at least it won't be a Yankee world series. I like being right.

I love to sleep, but what normal teenager doesn't? How can something so wonderful become something so annoying. I wish I could sleep all day long, all week long. There's things that get in the way though such as school and work and other responsibilites that come along with life. All during the day I have to fight the thing which I love most. I find myself closing my eyes when I'm not supposed to or slipping off to dream land when I need to be doing more important things. I'm the type of pers...

Tonight the Houston Astros closed the gap and beat the St. Louis Cardinals in a 6-5 win. After falling to a 0-2 start in the series, the Astros returned to Houston to show the Cardinals that they were not giving up with out a fight. Houston was the only team in the MLB to have a winning record against St. Louis this year. With the help of Roger Clemens in game three and clutch hitter Carlos Beltran in game 4 the Astros were able to prove that they are a contender for the World Series. Beltran...

It's been about a month and a half into the new school year and it's finally setting in...I miss Rosehill. I miss my classmates. Every single one of them. Sure I was the subject of ridicule and I even got hurt from time to time, but those two years that I spent there was some of the best times that I have ever had. I miss skipping class with Lydia and Stephanie, and pretending that Steph's leg was sprained so that we could have an excuse for coming to class late. I'll never forget that on...

Kevin Federline appeared in the movie You Got Served, and was also a back up singer for Spears previous boyfriend Justin Timberlake. And apparantly Federline already has a family of his own: a 2-yr old and a newborn. Britney said, "she would like to have a child, but still needed to get some business affairs sorted out beforehand, according to this week's Bunte." Wh...

I'm sorry I haven't posted in so long, not that anyone ever reads this thing but still.... There's three things I like about October. 1. The weather starts getting cooler, at least here in Houston anyways. 2.) The NFL is on every freakin weekend! 3.) Playoff Baseball. I usually don't watch a lot of baseball in the regular season. It's too boring and too long. Playoff baseball is a different story. The fans are crazy, the tention is crazy and you find yourself holding your breath for every...

After starting the season with 0-4 losing streak the Buccaneers decide to change things. Head Coach John Gruden announced his new starting QB as Chris Simms, putting veteran Brad Johnson on the bench. Maybe it became a wake-up call for the Bucs after losing four straight games with the offense producing less then 30 or 20 pts a game, that they needed a change. Hopefully Simms will bring a postive light to the team and start them on the path of winning.

The Houston Astros are one win away from being in the playoffs. Last night I attended the Stros and Colorado game. Most excting baseball game that I think I have ever been to, at least in a long time anyways. 6 homeruns were hit by the Astros in that one game, and a few recrods were broken too. I know the Stros have been in this playoff situation it seems like so many times, but I'm really hoping that they will pull through and win it all. I'm not even that big of an Astros fan but Go AsTrOs...

Was anyone else as shocked as I was when I heard that the Minnesota Twins clenched a playoff their division? I mean I haven't been exactly keeping up with the playoff race but I couldn't believe that the Twins won. They just seem...out of place. "The Twins reached 90 wins for the third straight season with a 6-2 victory over the Indians on Sept. 27. 'People said we were not going to win 90 games or the division,' said Ron Gardenhire, who is the seventh manager to reach the 90-win plateau in...

Yesterday was a good day for Houston fans. Not only did the Texans win, but the Astros also won pushing them further towards that wild card playoff spot. Texans were trailing the Cheifs 7-6 going into the second half. At the start of the 3rd quarter Priest Holmes rushed for a 3 yrd touchdown to put the cheifs up 14-6. Then just when it looked like Kansas City had gained momentum Trent Green threw an INT to Marcus Colman for a 102 yrd td return. The Texans went for 2 and were tied 14-14 wi...

Finally, Chris Simms got to start in his first NFL game.....I missed it. I didn't even know that Simms had played today until someone else told me, and even then I didn't believe that Johnson would be benched and Simms would get to play over Griese. What happened? I missed it. The game that I had been waiting for a yr to happen and I just had to miss it. Starting QB Brad Johson was benched and 2nd yr Chris Simms came into the game with 10:32 left in the first half. "We were looking for...

Life can sometimes feel like prison, especially for those of us who have to go to school for 8 hours a day. I never understood why we are sent to school for 12 yrs of our life and yet we have to go to school for an addtional four years in order to get somewhere in life. This subject was brought up today in my English class. We were discussing public education and how useful it really is. The majority of my class said that public education didn't really prep them at all for college. That bei...
