It's been awhile..

Ya sure I haven't done the best job at blogging lately but I'm here now so deal with it.  After a few weeks with my bike up and running it got a flat.  Last week, I order a tire for it, which should get here today.  I have no idea how to change a motorcycle tire so it could get interesting.  On a different note prom is the next two weekend.  I got my jacket and shirt in the mail the other day, still waiting on the vest though. I need to talk to Sydnie some time about flowers.  Soccer is going alright, Saturday we had a tournament that ay wasn't a  great day but oh well.  I am being asked to clean now, so this is goodbye.

Done and oh so beautiful.

Last weekend I finished painting my bike, yesterday the weather was finally warm enough to take it out.  I will probably be taking it into weights today.  Mom ordered my suit last weekend as well.  This is only half of what I wrote but the rest didn't save so you don't get to read it.

First game this week

Yesterday I got the last coat of paint on my tank.  Meaning I can now put everything back on and work on detailing.  I got a stainless steel silver color to detail it.  Dad brought home oil and oil filters for our bikes so I can also get the oil changed.  Thursday we have a game against Waterloo Columbus.  I'm not really sure if we will be ready for it but we will see.

Disappointed

Last night we went to the movies, I was not impressed.  I had a good time in all, I just expected the movie to be better.  It was the midnight premiere of the hunger games, so we didn't end up getting home till around three.  Then I woke up before nine and I'm tired.   Now I think I'll go out and paint my gas tank.  I hope I have enough paint to finish it.

Gunna bust a cap

Hello, this is me blogging from Bryce's computer.  Macklin was nice enough to rip out the keys on my computer.  What a lovely little brother I have.  We had pictures yesterday, those went well, practice fallowing was probably the easiest practice known to man.  We are going to the midnight premiere of "The Hunger games" tonight.  I haven't worked on my bike since I told you last. Nor have I worked on my car in awhile.  As of Sunday I will also be going to Grundy's prom.

Spring showers.

This morning I woke up to what I thought was rain outside the window.  Turns out it was rain poring out of the ceiling.  Great way to start your day.  We have pictures today for soccer, Chase and I have to work on our pose, not sure what we are doing yet.  Last night I painted my tank, We are about to read the hunger games, I might get my last unpainted part and work on it while we read.  At the moment I think I might be playing defensive head hunter, not completely sure yet.

Spring break is over...

Mondays usually aren't great in the first place, then add the end of spring break to it and today sucks.  Okay its really not that bad.  Who says I can't over exaggerate?  I saw this really cool tattoo design, making me second guess the thirteen I had planned, maybe I can get a thirteen inside the design.  I was finally able to bring my bike home over break, now I have to finish painting it and putting it back together.  I will also nee to change the oil before riding it around.  Soccer has started back up, practices are going fairly well, we still haven't gotten goals up though.

Long time no see

It's been awhile since I have blogged, so here I am.  Last night I finally got some shoes ordered.  They are black Pumas and look amazing.  We have been lifting every day this, along with shooting around a bit for soccer.  Practice officially starts Monday, I'm not sure if we will start inside like we usually do, or if we will start outside because its fairly dry out.  I worked on my bike some more last night, once the paint warms up a little more (I left it outside) I'll go down stairs and paint em. Dad said that Monday we might be able to bring them home.

We didn't make it to state.

We were just one game from state.  We just couldn't finish it off.  We are now moved onto lifting everyday, we are also working out with the girls soccer team, we have a good two ab workouts a day, and yes I am definitely feeling it.  Soccer starts in two weeks, I am rather excited for that.  My phone is on its last leg, it keeps shutting off randomly.  My bike still isn't painted yet, I still need more paint.

Friday, February 24, 2012

One game left till state!

We won our game last night, so we have practice today, then a game tomorrow. If we win this game then we will be going to state.  The game is in Cedar Rapids tomorrow so a fairly long bus ride.  The keys on my key pad aren't working so I have to stop blogging and fix it.

Thursday, February 23, 2012

Going to state?

We are two games, and one more practice away from going to state.  Tonight we have a game in Marshaltown, then we play again Saturday if we win.  If we win both those games, we will be heading to state.  I should really get back to work on painting my bike,  The weather has been up and down but spring has got to be coming soon.  When It does come I want to be ready for it.  This Friday I might be going to the jazz show, I'm not entirely sure yet.  After the jazz show the Taylor's are going to the lounge, if I don't go to the show I'll meet them there.  Saturday I might have a game if I do then I might go bowling with Chase and the Taylor's, if we don't have a game then we will go earlier.

Friday, February 17, 2012

bring on the weekend!

Well, its finally Friday.  We made it through the week.  Tonight we have practice regular time, tomorrow we have practice at eight.  I am planning on doing something with Taylor tonight, whether it be coming here, going there, or going out.  That's what my plans consist of right now.  Last night we won our first game of district basketball,  our next game is this Tuesday.  I'm ready for it to be over, I need the time to lift.

Fixing the mess

Tonight I might work on fixing the paint jobs I did on some of my other parts.  After I'm done blogging I might go paint what I sanded last night and the night before.  We have to be at our game at six tonight.  I feel as if we should win this game rather easily, but that's just my opinion.  Willie will be coming tomorrow, not really sure what time though.

Wednesday, February 15, 2012

Some progress

Last night I sanded one of the main body parts to me bike.  I think I have it sanded as much as I need for the prime but I'll double check when I go to paint it.  Chase and I continue to dominate at pretty much everything we do with each other in practice.  Mom and dad were running late, so chase and I stayed after practice and recorded ourselves dunking.  I got to get through today, then the game tomorrow, then Willie is coming over Friday which should be an alright weekend to look forward to.

I just want to be done

We are at the end of our basketball season where its one and done.  We play Colo Thursday, dad thinks we should be able to beat them.  As not as both the fives don't foul out I probably won't get to play much, if at all.  The practicing is what annoys me, they really only have us there to play defense.  But its almost done, then we can get started on soccer.  my soccer shoes should be coming in the mail today.  I need to start lifting again, I haven't gone in months.

Getting my dunk on

Today is going to be a great day!  Both chase and I are going to play inn the JV game tonight, both chase and I can dunk.  I really hate Dike, so I will do whatever I can to embarrass them as much I can.  After the game we are going to the midnight premier of Star Wars 3D!  This will be the first midnight showing we have been to.  last night I ordered so sweet soccer shoes.  They are Mercurial Glides, they are purple, and were reasonably cheap.  Mom and dad are going to Indiana tomorrow to pick up my tractor.  they should be getting back sometime in the afternoon Saturday.  Still no progress on painting the bike, still need to go get paint sometime.

At a stand still

I am all out of paint, so now I can't paint anymore.  Next time I go to Waterloo I'll have to get some more.  Saturday in our game against GMG our starters came out flat, so I didn't get to play much.  what this tells me is that I won't be playing much at all the rest of the year.  because if I barely get in against a bad team, no way will I see time against a good team, and to think, I was a starter.  At this point I'm just ready to be done with basketball and get on with soccer.  Although the exact same thing happened in soccer last year.  Both sports I lost my spot to my younger brother.

Coming along....

Last night a sanded and primed 5 of my parts.  This morning they didn't turn out so great.  I think I didn't get it fully sanded in parts or something but now I'll need to do some extra sanding.  I am really liking the color I think I'll use a silver detail color, still not sure what kind of design I want.  I was a little more so pleased with last nights game.  I got a pretty sweet block, and i know for a fact if I got the chance I could have thrown it down.  The only problem is our teammates don't look up at us fast enough.  The next two games we should have the chance to both get in and throw it down.

Half way between

Tuesday our game against South Tama went alright, we beat the by like forty.  Even though we were up by twenty in the first half I still didn't get in.  I started the second half, but got about two minutes, then sat the rest of the game.  So now I'm not getting starting time, nor do I get scrub time.  If you are between the two, your screwed for time.  I started painting my parts to my bike.  I am painting the a dark semi metallic blue.  I just put on what might be the last coat to the smallest pieces.  We might be going to Waterloo this afternoon to go grocery shopping, I might be able to get mom to stop by Advanced Auto parts to get some more paper and paint.  I might do some kinda design in a silver.  But that will come after I'm done with the blue.

Cake walk

We have four basketball games to play this week.  They just happen to be some of the easiest four teams we play.  At the moment I am listening to history, trying to anyways the stereo is buzzing out.  Bryce is cleaning the disc now, hopefully it will work now. I really have nothing to say... so I will say nothing goodbye.

Just missed it.

Last night Chase was fingertips from making Clark history.  In the JV game, he got on a fast break, he went for the dunk but was just off.  As he was throwing it down, he lost the ball throwing it too far into the back iron.  Other than that it was a pretty boring game.  After the game we went to grandpas and I got my parts.  All of them except the tank and wheel fenders.  Now we need to research what we need to do now.  I'll need to sand it first, I need to get a spray gun and paint.  Tonight we have a game against West Marshal who killed us last game, but they don't play as well at there place, so one can dream can't he.

So much food so little money!

The title says it all!  There is so much food out there, and so little time and money in my pocket.  Hu hot's sounds really good along with Hy-vee and trunks.  None of which I'll be eating tonight.  We will be having chilli dogs.  After lunch I might be able to convince mom to take us to grandpas, we have to take the truck back and I was hoping to get me bike stripped.  Later today we have practice then I'm going to the JV game in which Chase gets to play in.

Purple enough said.

It's Wednesday, and I am ready for the weekend.  Last night we won our game against Jesup.  I increased my pickpocketing to level thirty seven.  Today, as far as I know of, we are doing anything, besides the usual of course.  Tomorrow is about the same, maybe JV game though, not really sure.  I have games on both Friday and Saturday this weekend.  Dad brought up taking my bike apart the other day, so I took that as he is all for me painting it.

Delay...

Last Friday school got canceled, meaning our game with Grundy got canceled.  That snow day kinda sucked cause mom wouldn't let us go anywhere.  Although after dad go home with the raven he let us go to Carries.  Saturday was less eventful, we babysat all morning till around three, where we then left to our basketball game.  We played in CF against NU, who we beat in overtime.  After the game we grabbed some food and headed home, where we stayed the rest of the night.  Sunday morning we had to get up extra early cause we went to our cousins dedication.  Dad got me up around six, he was going out to push some snow and wanted me to be ready to pull him out if he needed.  We made it out, and there fine.  The parking lot at the church was extremely slippery though.  After the dedication we went back to our cousins for a little bit.  After some talking and eating, we went to Faith with Alex to hang out there.  We played some basketball and by the time we were done with that mom and dad where waiting to take us home. The rest of Sunday was pretty boring.  This morning we have a two hour delay.  I'm not really sure if that applies to us, cause its nine forty five and mom hasn't been on us to start school yet, but I'm not complaining.

Snow day!

Hello, this is me, talking to you!  Today is a snow day so I really don't have to be talking to you today.  For that reason I am leaving you for another.  Another as in.... Chase, I will make him make plans for me to enjoy my day, either him or skyrim.  I don't know how easy it will be for us to leave our house, depends on the amount of snow.  You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.  I think I just got the impression that mom wants us to do school... who is she kidding?

Pizza Ranch? Score!

Its official, we are going to Pizza Ranch!  Moms computer got spilled on so we have to get it fixed.  Meaning we have to go to get food.  I just found out a certain someone of my past has lied to me even more than I thought, sad thing is I kinda expected it.  I also love how she glares at me when ever I look at her.  But what can you do, drama is just that, drama.  No plans outside of basketball yet, probably gunna take the weekend off of hanging with Taylor for various reasons.  which now leads to the question, who to hang out with?

Heading to Pizza Ranch!

This morning mom woke us up by telling us we are going to Pizza Ranch!  I'm sure you can guess how fast everyone got out of bed and ready to go.  We will be leaving here in a few minutes, I can't wait to get my dessert pizza on!  On another note, I can always be amazed by the logic of people in this world.  That is all I really have to say about that.  It really is also all that really needs to be said.  I really wish the weight room were open more often in Gladbrook.  I really need to be lifting more often than I am.  I don't really get all that much of a workout from the weight set in my room.  As far as this weekend goes, I have a game Friday against Grundy, and another game Saturday at Cedar Falls against NU.  As of right now that is all the plans I have.  Chase and I have a date with Chelsea sometime for her birthday, that might happen this week it might happen next I'm not really sure.

Benched!

This Saturday we have a game at Wartburg.  After the game is our winter formal.  I am skipping this year because too many people wanted me to go with them, and cause its a waste of money cause I don't dance.  So instead I am planning on going to the movies, I know street is up for going but we aren't sure if flam-bomb wants to go.  I think chase is going with his usual group of girls.  before tomorrow comes though, we have to get through today first.  We have a game tonight against AGWSR, and we will be watching from the bench.  I really have no idea how much playing time we will get.

Thursday, January 12, 2012

I guess it's still winter.

Last night on our way home from church, the snow was coming in fast.  This morning there is about an inch of snow on the ground.  the most we have had all year long, I'll be perfectly fine if this is all we get.  It's official, I have been benched.  Trevor we be starting the game tomorrow, I guess I'd rather him than Zach though.  I guess the only thing to do is turn the intensity up in practices, and come off the bench looking for blood.  On that note, I dunked in front of everyone today, and chase dunked in front of me, Kevin, and our coaches.

Burried alive

Yesterday sucked quite a bit.  The day started off with my alarms on my phone not working right.  Because the alarms didn't work we woke up late, giving us five minutes to get ready for work.  We ended up only being five to seven minutes late, but when we got to work our boss told us that we will be doing the recycling ourselves.  We didn't get done with working till eleven thirty.  Then we got home, ate, then I took a nap.  When it came time to get ready for our game I got up, took a shower, then when I went to find my warm ups my pants were still in the wash.  Because they were still in the wash I just wore my warmup jacket and my button up pants.  It come time to leave to Gladbrook to get picked, we made sure we left plenty early so we wouldn't miss it.  When we came into town we see a bus leaving town, Chase commented and asked if that was our bus, I told him it was way to early to be our bus, being four o five and it doesn't leave for another ten minutes.  We got to the school, no one was there and no bus.  Shortly after we got there Paige shows up, then Kevin. Around four twenty five Paige comes tells us the the bus had already left.  So then we took our car to the road side park on T forty seven to meet the bus.  Skipping ahead to the game now, I had an alright first half, we were down by twelve.  Coach told me on the bus he would start Zach the second half just to switch things up.  Ends up neither Chase or I get in the game in the second half at all.  And that concludes my suck butt day.

getting some tats

This weekend dad is taking me to Marshaltown to get a tattoo. I am going to get the number 13 on my back.  I am also going to paint my motorcycle to match it.  I will probably paint it black, I was thinking in dark blue or purple, I would paint a thirteen on the back fenders.  For the main body I might paint some kind of stripes.   Before any of this I need to get a paint gun and some paint.  I will also need to get all the parts off my bike and sand them down.  I believe dad is going to grandpas tomorrow, I might be able to go with him and bring all my stuff home with me.

Friday, January 6, 2012

Game tonight!

Tonight we will be playing at East Marshal.  It should be a pretty easy win, due to they have never been all that good.  Jacob Schmit has come up to me the past two days trying to talk me into play WR next year so that he can play TE.  I would be perfectly fine with being a wide receiver, its just he doesn't have much chance at starting varsity at a skill position.  Yesterday, he was telling me how great of hands he has, I asked if he had as good of hands as Joe Z and he said that he did, I laughed.  I won't be going to school today, because we will be getting picked up in Gladbrook for the game.

Cristmas break is over

The break is over, now we are back to the same old same old life which revolves around school.  I enjoyed my break rather greatly.  Hung out with some new people a few times, and the old ones also.  Still haven't heard much from Cody lately, nothing I want to hear anyways.  Next free weekend I get I'll probably see if he can come over for some XBOX.  What I got for Christmas? A whole butt load of nothing (not really)but I didn't want anything, and asked to get nothing.  I would rather my parents keep the money and just take us out some time or something, or just buy the little's more presents, because whatever xbox games we get are just as much mine as theirs.

2012

This is my first blog of 2012!  Supposedly, in December the world is supposed to end.  In fact its suppose to happen on dads birthday.  Next time I am at grandpas, I am thinking about taking the body off my bike to bring home and paint.  I'm not really sure what color yet, I was thinking maybe black with a blue trim or maybe purple.  I will also need to go buy the paint, and probably the power painter.  Good thing I got money from Christmas to burn.  Some time today I need to finish putting together the new weight set we got.
