Heat VS Celtics
Well I was so into the game tonight I really didn't study for any finals that I have tomorrow. This is bad. I am still pretty upset with the horrible officials tonight. They are professional and are supposed to be the best. I could have done better. But anyways I'm upset that Boston lost. I know they will get it back though! Wish em luck!
Elemental Cleaver on Gears of War 3 Aftermath
How to get the Elemental Cleaver in Gears on Aftermath: What you first need to do is that you have to be in horde mode. the easiest way to do this is don't buy anything so hordes don't come at you. Then when you spawn you must go up that first staircase and turn around, look up and kill all those birds that are flying way high in the air. then after you kill them all you must go into that building type thing that is behind you to the left. once your in there, their will be a wood floor and a deck, at the end of the deck their will be something glowing orange, go over and just start shooting it. once you shoot it enough a giant tentacle will come out of the ground and lay the water elemental cleaver right there on the deck in front of you! try it! comment and let me know how it works!

May 27, 2012
Well today was a typical day, got up around ten and from there I didn't do much. I watched a little TV and then my mom cooked me some eggs for breakfast because they had already eaten before I had waken. Then I laid around some more like a typical Saturday. My dad had been outside fixing the lights on the outside of the house, in an attempt to make it look nicer because we have a graduation party coming up for my sister. My father came in and asked me to vacuum the pool because he still has other things to work on. I did, I went outside and vacuumed the pool so he didn't have to. Then I proceeded to pick up dog mess in my yard and take all the oversized-bad looking branches out of the mulch and toss them into the field next door to help tighty up the house. After all that was finished I came in and watched some Dual Survival while my parents had left and gone to a graduation party. When they had come back they bought me something to eat(Tom and Jerry's). I had eaten here at home as I watched some good ol' Saturday TV. When I had finished eating I had gone to my room to play some videos games. The game I played all day was Gears of War 3. It is a first person shooter game and is very fun and challenging. I pretty much played that most of the day. And I have been working on trying to get my piece of crap Toshiba laptop working because for some reason it won't. And now is about time for bed. Maybe I'll relax and have a snack and watch some TV but, sooner more apt then later it will be time for bed!
Computer Troubles
I'm upset today because my laptop that I use for everything won't work! It turns on and lets me log in and then starts to load. It brings up my homepage like everything is fine and then it freezes there every time! I've tried to start the computer in safe mode and it works then, and then I restart it and try it against in regular mode and then it just freezes again! I've tried this numerous times and can't figure out what's wrong!
Got any ideas, please comment on how to help me out below.

NBA Playoffs
We all know that 90% of the people out there that watch basketball root against the Miami Heat. And I am one of those people, I don't like them Nd I don't think they are as good as everyone thinks. Everyone knows that the Eastern Conference is so much weaker now with the loss of Rose from the Bulls, because with him try probably would be in the conference finals ready to take the Heat out. But now that the Conference is weakens I don't think that Boston has a chance against the Heat, our only hope was that the Bulls would beat them. But now I have my hopes and dreams on my other favorite team.
At the beginning of the season I always told myself that I would love to see OKC and the Bulls make it to the finals. But now with the Bulls out I want OKC to take it all. I'm hoping this week that Durant, Harden and Westbrook will be able to take care of the Spurs. I believe they can win that series in Bout 5 to 6 games, as long as they play smart basketball and hit their open jump shots like they need to because that's what they are best at. Then I think the heat will make it to the Finals no matter what now.
But in the Finals I think that OKC has a great chance of winning, they are just as young(if not younger) and have as much or more energy than the Heat. All they need to do is have Durant play defense on Lebron and have Westbrook on Wade. And if Bosh is back at that time you put Harden or Ibaka on him. I think with those matchups the Thunder will fair pretty good on defense and when they are on offense they will still be able to hit their shots and score and win, as long as they don't give the ball away to malt times on turnovers, because that's when the Heat is so deadly. And that is my prediction of the NBA Finals!
LETS GO OKC!!

Mac vs. PC
I've been wanting a Mac for a while now but they are pretty expensive so I don't have one at the moment. What brings me to this topic is that I have a crappy toshiba laptop and at the moment it won't work. It turns on and then freezes, so I try to shutdown and it says shutting down for hours, and never will shutdown. So it brings me here wonder should I get a Mac, or would just a desktop computer be better? As of now I don't really care for having a laptop because I don't use it for its portability, it just sits on the desk, and it freezes all the time. So if I upgrade I was wondering if I should upgrade to a Mac or a regular desktop PC.
I would love some feed back Thanks!

Vegas vacation
My family and I went on a vacation to Vegas a couple years ago, we went with friends of our family too. Going to Vegas on a vacation is very awesome. Even for underaged kids there are many fun things to do then also. But the most fun thing to do is see all the sites. All the lights and buildings and everything, luckily when I went we climbed a mountain on the 4th of July and watched the fireworks over the magnificent city from there. It was pretty amazing, if you ever have a chance to go there, deffinately go. And also the weather is awesome! Warm all the time, swim anytime! It is perfect!!
Art from my friend!
This is some sweet art I saw my friend do! This is something I had no clue she could ever do! But one day she showed me and I was so surprised! I don't know if you have ever used one of these, but it is very very hard to even make something like a circle! But to see someone do something like this, I think is truly art! It is very awesome to see too.
Cool currency
Check out this quarter! My dad has some coin operated washers and driers at the apartment building we own and found this in the bucket of quarters! It think it's very cool and pretty awesome. I've never seen anything like it before, but now that I have seen one, I'm keeping my eye out and looking for a bunch of other ones! I think it would be sweet to own one for every state that is colored like this! Keeps your eyes peeled guys they are everywhere! Want to see some more? Type in colored quarters on google and see all the different types that show up!
Summer Jobs for Teens
Now that school is coming to a close, and the weather is becoming very nice out, and local pools and amusement parks are opening, the question still is, What to do with summer?
The answer lies within you. It all depends on what interests you and what you want to do! Do you want to make money and save up to buy something? Do you want a job? Do you want to just be a care free teen and run wild? Well the answer all relies on you and what YOU feel like doing
If you feel like getting a job and making money then the first thing you should do is figure out what kind of job you can do, and what kind of job you would be good at, and most important what intrigues you! There are many jobs you can do anywhere from applying for a fast food restaurant, asking you dad and neighbors if there are lawns to be mowed, babysitting, house watching, pet watching, dog walking. There are numerous possibilities but you just have to choose one that fits you the best, what you would be good at and what you would enjoy the most. It all might depend on what you prefer, Do you work a lot and don't mind being outside? Then something like mowing lawns and dog walking might work. Are you social and love to meet new people? Then possibly a fast food restaurant or being a bus boy will work for you. Or are you shy and don't like physical work a lot but still want to earn some money? Then you can do anything from house watching to maybe if your good enough . . . designing websites or logos and stuff like that. But no matter which one of these you would want to do, for all of them you need to get your name out there and tell your parents and friends to help promote you, the more people that know you and your business, the more customers and the more money you will make!
(These are just some ideas to get your brain going, the ideas are endless within your imagination! Get out there, get to work and do something, and finally get that paycheck!)

My Topic is "Is it Right?"
I am a student at Sycamore High School and I've been wondering about teachers swearing at us, the question is "Is it Right?" Lately I've been noticing the teachers swearing, and I know that's not right because they are supposed to be role models to us. What I think that is really unfair is that first, is we swear they can write us up and get us detention if we swear. And second, we can also get fined for $50 by the cop at our school for swearing if it is in public. Now does it right if teachers are aloud to swear at students and call them names and they have no punishment for it?
I think it is completely wrong that teachers swear at us and their is no consequence for them. Like I said above, if we(the students) get caught swearing we get detention, and/or fined. This leads me to think that if a student is supposed to look up to these teachers and learn from them, than they should have to abide by the same rules when it comes to stuff like swearing and stuff like that. Meaning if a student can get fined for it, then a teacher should be able to get fined for it also.
If you have anything to say, or agree, feel free to comment.

Bad Time and Place for Graduation
My sister is a senior and she is graduating this years. Graduation is this weekend on Sunday, the day before Memorial Day, and yes I am going to love seeing her accept her diploma, something she has been working for through 12 years of High School. But I for one am dreading having to go and sit through this! The forecast shows that it is going to be 97 degrees, and even worse we will be in an un-air conditioned field house with approximately 15,000 other people. And to add to all that I have to be wearing dress clothes that is going to make this situation suck even worse. But I am still glad to be going. But it would probably even be better is they did it outside so there is at least a breeze blowing through to help cool it down. Ah but oh well can't change the schools mind. I guess me and those other one thousand people are just going to have to suffer through!
Last Day of School!
Today, for me, was the last full day of school. I don't know about everyone else but i am so pleased to be getting out of that place. the bad part is the next week we still have finals for every class(not looking forward to that). The seniors of our school got out yesterday so they have gotten today off. When we were leaving the school, all of us kids still in school were ambushed by the senior class, they all came back with hundreds of water balloons and threw them at us as we walked out, I was lucky enough to not get hit. But I, myself, was lucky enough to not get hit by one. I can not wait until the day when I am the one getting to leave school forever and not have to come back! I know I'm not the only one, but i do not like this place! No one looks forward to school everyday. I dread it. So i can finally say SCHOOL IS OUT FOR SUMMER!

OKC Thunder
I don't know about all you NBA Play-off fans out there, but i for one cant wait to see OKC make it to the NBA Finals. I know it will be tough getting past the Spurs, but I think with the youth of the team and how much energy they have, if they can hit there open shots and get Westbrook and Durant going, then this young team can beat anyone.
