Basketball

The main thing on my mind is basketball. We need to win the rest of our conference games. We play each team in our conference twice and we already played each team once except one team. We won all of our conference games so far except one. We lost to New London, we knew they were going to be a tough team to beat and we lost by one. The next time we play them is in New London, we have to win that game to win the conference. It is probably going to be the biggest game of the season. We should be able to beat them if we play good.

Winter Break

During winter break one thing fun that I did was go snowmobiling. I went three times over the break with my friends and my family. The first time I went was with some of my friends, we met by my house and went towards black creek, from there we went to freedom and back to seymour. We stopped at walley's in seymour for a while and then we went back home. The second time I went was with my cousin, went all the way to suamico and back. The last time I went was in Antigo. We trailered the snowmobiles up there and rode all day. It was really fun! Another thing I did that was fun was go to a New Years eve party. It was at my cousins house and we stayed up until two o'clock in the morning. Overall the christmas break was really fun!

Mt. Everest



These photos represent the tone of the essay Mt. Everest because it is a happy story. In the essay Mt. Everest Eric Weihenmayer is trying to be the first blind person to reach the top of Mt. Everest. In the end he reaches the top and becomes the first blind person to get to the top. The essay has a happy tone.

Digger Wasp

I would probably rather spend time studying the wasp rather than the spider. The reason I would rather study the wasp is becuse from what I read so far the wasp seems to be pretty intresting. Could you imagine seeing a wasp 2 inches long? That would be crazy! They also burrow holes into the ground the diameter of a quarter and some of the holes can be up to 24 inches into the ground. Then they paralyze insects and bring them into the hole and lay their eggs on them.

Challenging

The most challenging thing I ever had to do was play basketball against Onalaska at the state tournament in Stevens Point. They were a really good team and were really hard to beat. The game was close the whole way but we ended up loosing to them by a few points. They ended up winning the whole tournament. So, we did pretty good against them because they were one of the best teams in the state.

Inspiration

One person that inspires me in my life is Duane Wade. The reason he inspires me is because he is a really good basketball player and I want to be as good as him someday. He works really hard at practices and never gets into trouble so he can play in every game. He is the starting point guard for the Miami heat. I also am a starting point guard so we play the same positions which inspires me to be like him. He is a really nice guy and has donated to many charities in his life time. I really want to be like him some day!
