Dark Times

Image
"This ain't the right time for you to fall in love with me But baby I'm just being honest.." ... "In my Dark times.. Baby this is all I could be Only my mother could love me for me.." ... "In my dark times I still got some problems I know Driving too fast but just moving too slow And I've got something I've been trying to let go of Pulling me back every time .." Nah, don't worry. I wouldn't say I'm depressed. I just really like those lyrics and the song really hits me right now. In this time I'm in, I'm really trying to discover more about myself. I'm a pretty reflective person but sometimes i think too much that it turns into overthinking. I know it's not as bad as other people but overthinking is bad for anyone really, it creates problems that weren't even there before. Even though I don't like to admit it, I still have my regrets. One of them being is I wish I learned more when I wa...

Feb 25th 2016

Hmm will I be posting daily?  I'm not sure to be honest. I do tend to think too much so let's see if I run out of things to say. I don't want to seem like a negative person. I just feel like a lot of my posts will be about learning lessons through the daily struggles in life. Maybe one day I'll look back at these days and smile or laugh at how far I got and progressed in life. I should probably stop being too general in my posts though. Well, I am just freely writing. I wonder if anyone in this world would be interested to read about my thoughts. Let's cut to the chase. Lately I've been wondering who my real friends are. Throughout my 19 years on earth, I can't recall too many people I can call best friends. Thomas, Sean, Keenan, Matthew, Philip, Bryan, Elijah, Julia to name a few. Around these people, I really wasn't afraid to be myself around. However, best friend is a title that just can't be given away. As "chill" as it's "...

I'm baaack! + recent thoughts/mini rant

Gonna revive this. The raw unedited - write whatever I want and feel - me. Not that anyone checks my blog except yours truly. Anyways I'm currently 19 years old. It's February 24, 2016 just in case this post doesn't attach the date. Man that sucks.. it doesn't autosave what you write on the mobile app 👎 Ah well. Gotta not give up easily. -Back on track- I last wrote in this blog about 3 years ago. Most of my posts were about books and reading, which I wish I did more of today. Reading is a very overlooked skill in society today which people don't do enough of. Excuse me if my writing skills aren't up to par or if it isn't the greatest, but I haven't really taken English since highschool. I'm going to take an English course in the summer which I'm actually excited for. I miss writing in general. Back to myself. Currently I'm in a state where I'm really focusing on myself. I'm trying to learn who I really am and all...

Rebound: The Odyssey of Michael Jordan - Bob Greene

Image
           This is the first book I've read in awhile. Bob Green talks of the life of Michael Jordan, who is considered the greatest player of all time when it comes to basketball. He is also one of my favorite athletes. However, the book focuses more on Michael's life outside basketball, starting off by mentioning how his father was murdered. The trials Jordan had to face were written in this book. Jordan temporarily retired his NBA career, and followed his Dad's dream of him becoming a Major League Baseball player. That didn't go too well after 2 years of hard work at the diamond in the Minor Leagues. Despite being a stint in his baseball career, Jordan had determination throughout. He let no one influence him in any of his decisions. Jordan showed us all that we should not care what other people think if you like what you're doing.             This book was 275 pages. It took a while to finish, and I have to ...

Balsa Bridge Building Competition 2013

Image
As a grade 11 physics student at Notre Dame, I am required to build a bridge made entirely out of balsa wood with a minimum span of 40cm, height of 5cm, maximum weight of 100g, and other numerous restrictions. The competition is to sustain the most weight pulling down on the bridge. My partner, Niko, and I hope that our bridge does well and beats the precious record of sustaining 220kg.
