Today, i'm not going to start with "so it's been a long time since i've blogged" because that is obvious, and i've used it in like the last 4 blogs, lame. So i think that blogging is now going to be like a weekly, or everyother week activity. Well at least till footballs over. Lately i've been mass busy with football, and hockey, and school, and chillin wit ma bois [yes I used i, got a problem?]. Lol, so i haven't had very much time to be able to blog. But i do have much to tell, yes. MUCH to tell. I think i shall split this bad boy up into sections again today.
Where is the love?
The other day i was chillin with my buds Mike and Colin, and we were youtubing it up, cause that's what we do. And we came across the "Where is the love?" video, and i never saw it, but it is one of my most favorite songs out there. So we watched it. I was quite inspired by it. I mean i'm a peaceful guy, and i don't like to fight, but it kind of gave me another look at all the social injustices going on. Then today, i was reading the paper, and the front cover had a picture of two men of the darker skin color, and one that wasn't. Above the two black men, it said 'These two men are now felons' and above the white one it said 'He isn't.' Then below the black men, it said that one of them was arrested for jaywalking and then found with one rock of crack on him, and the other black man was arrested for like something with his liscense plate light out, and was found with one rock of crack as well, and i mean of course that's not right. But then i looked below the white man, and he was arrested after a cop chase and he had four rocks of crack and like a crapload of crackpipes, and all this other stuff, and yet HE is the one not getting arrested? Maybe it's just me, but that seems unbelieveably wrong. So really that song is most definitely true, and i very much appreciate it. Go Black Eyed Peas.
Twenty-six point two miles?
I believe that that is how long a full marathon is. Yes, infact it is. My cousin recently asked me if i wanted to run a marathon, and i'm and athletic kind of kid, and i love running, so i thought it was a wonderful idea. Him and I are good buds, and would definitley benefit from it. We are planning on training for pretty much the next year, to prepare. I'm honestly very excited. I think it'll be a challenge to do, so i want to prove to myself that i will be able to. He also recommended me a book called "Ultra-Marathon Man," i started it last night, and I think that it will be good inspiritation. Maybe someday i'll be running marathons regularly. We'll see.
Good for yourself
Lately i've been wondering why i do the things i do. And honestly i can't really find and answer for most things. I really don't know why i play the guitar, or say the stupid jokes that i do. But then i halfway realized something. I think that i do the things i do, because they're good for me. Hockey - it takes out my anger and keeps me in shape and makes great friends. Football is practically the same thing. Track/Runinnng/Riding my bike- it keeps me in wonderful shape, and it's very relaxing and gives me lots of time to think about my life and what i should do. Reading/writing- both enhance my mind in multiple ways and i gain immense amounts of knowledge. Playing musical instruments/Singing- just lets me 'express' myself. I mean that's pretty much most of my life, i think it all works out just fine. So maybe i just made that up in my head, but i think that should be the answer to the question of 'why' do you do things, because they're good for you. I like it.
I guess that's all i've got for today. We shall meet again.
