Up Coming Events

Anyone excited for the winter olympics coming up? Or how about the Super Bowl? Anyone up for World Cup Soccer?

To all of those Football loving Americans, the Super Bowl is on Sunday! As you should know- which I didn't and ended up asking a friend. The result being making a total fool of myself!! So anyhow, the game that will be commencing is Seahawks vs Broncos at 6:30 pm. And according to this website, we have 2 days, 1 hour, 2 minutes, and 20 seconds until kickoff. Of course the time is ticking down as I type this.
Go Broncos!

The Olympics of 2014 are being held in Sochi Russia to any of those who didn't know. They begin on February 7, 2014. And this year Nordic Ski Jumping for women is finally being introduced! One of my previous teacher's daughter is competing! She will be among some of the first to ever ski jump in the olympics as a woman!

Nordic Ski Jumping is quite the sport. Hurtling down an angled track to end up flying straight off a jump! You go flying through the air, sailing quite a few feet if you get enough momentum! How would I know this? In the past as a part of the P.E program, my grade got to experience this wonderful sport. You feel as if you're flying! Of course you have to stick the landing. If you don't, yard-sale!!!!!

World Cup this summer! Anyone going to Brazil? I have a few friends who are, and I'm so jealous! I guess I have a little token for the match however; the T.V and a model of the new Brazuca soccer ball. Well it's not mine per say, my sister's really. But hey, I can borrow it on the occasion...right?

Germany looks like they will do pretty well this year, they have new players that are really pulling the team together. I personally will continue to root for the Netherlands. Brazil and Spain of course are doing well.

January 31st, at last! January just seems to drag on and on! In my opinion it is the longest month of the year. There are no deadlines in January, New year has passed, and everyone is just trying to get their feet under them. All of my teachers seem to want to repeat the same lesson, over and over again. Well good news is Winter Break is coming up! A time to relax, ski, and forget about school. Just two more weeks away. Unfortunately, Science Fair is just around the corner. Needless to say, I still have a ton of work to do.
