My New Job


After I had a motorcycle accident, and I was aware of what happened to me. I wanted to go to work. My mom had told me that my old job had to fire me, because I was out of work so long. So everybody was telling me to just focus on getting better. For about 10 months I was in therapy. The doctors and therapist told me it would not be good for me to start back working right now, when I was in the hospital. Later on I put in a application at Radio Shack and all I have to do now is call this lady to set up an interview. Actually it feels great to have a job in line. Now I'm just trying to get some free time to call her and set up an interview.

My Second Job


My second job was at Diamond Shamrock, they are owned by Valero. When I thought I was going to work for Diamond Shamrock, I really, was about to work for Valero. Our uniforms had Valero on them and signs that we had up on the windows and walls. Cups, bags, etc had Valero written all over them. My job was working the cash register, cleaning the bathroom, sweeping the parking lot. Washing windows, sweeping and mopping the floor. After 2 or 3 months they were training me to be a manager. Then I had my motorcycle accident. I'm not working there anymore. Because I had the accident.

My First Job


I use to work a lot. My first job was when I was in high school. I was a senior when I started working. I started working at Game Stop. I wanted to work there so bad and I got the job. Because I was determined and my approach was real good. My dad showed me how to approach getting a job. How to present myself. On top of all of that, I did so good the 3 years I was attending Skyline High school. My senior year I only took 3 class I think. Because I was in co-op and you get 2 0r 3 credits for the class. I worked there for about 2 years. In less than a year they made me a manager. I was pretty good at it too.

Cowboys drafted Jones




The cowboys made a great choice in the draft. Look at all that speed he has. He's going to be a beast. He already had a sixty yard run aginist the the Green Bay Packers. Watch out for him, a storm is coming.

Driving


I use to drive a little bit. The doctors and therapists told my parents not to let me drive. That hurt me not being able to get behind the wheel. But I'm dealing with it, my time will come soon enough. No need to get fustrightedover something like that. Because when I do get behind the wheel I'm going to be a little rusty. That's kind of weired being 21 and having a little trouble driving. Its just best for me to relax. Take it one day at a time don't rush things. If I rush things i might get hurt again.

King Tut


I'm going to the king Tut exhibit. My whole class has to go or they will fail the semester. This is easy to accomplish. If you have a car you can drive there or you can catch the bus. I think catching the bus would be the best thing to do because driving can be very expensive. Parking can range from $15 to $20 dollars, plus its $35 dollars to get in. Like I said it can be very expensive. I believe the exhibit opened Oct. 3 and we have until Dec. 8 to go see the exhibit. I'll let you know how it turns out.

My Favorite Game

Madden 2008 has been out for a few months now, and has been broken down by millions of gamers. Each playbook has been turned inside and out and each player has been tested for strengths and weaknesses. Madden gamers are notorious for finding even the smallest nuances in the game and exploiting them, which has led EA to constantly try to correct the next version of the game. How has Madden 2008 stood up to the rigorous testing of the masses? Sports Gamer breaks down Madden 2008's strengths and weaknesses, and asks you to help EA with your input.
What's Good About Madden NFL 08
Madden NFL 08 (XBox 360 / PS3) is an amazing game. Through this article I am going to critique the game quite a bit but I want to preface that by saying that in my opinion this is the best Madden to date. Over the past two years, the majority of gamers were still on PS2 and XBox, and that version of Madden was becoming a bit too difficult for the average gamer to pick up and play. The addition of the vision cone, while very enjoyable for the hardcore Madden gamers made for a less enjoyable experience for the casual gamer. In addition to the vision cone, the offensive schemes that worked became harder and harder to run without very complex glitch type plays and made it difficult for the average gamer to even score against the hardcore Madden gamer. This led to very low turnouts at Madden tournaments across the country. Gamers made their voices heard with their absence, and they were disappointed with the gameplay. EA heard the masses and went to the drawing board to create a truly great game.

There's not much to say about this game. Everybody who has played Madden whould say just pick up the control and see for yourself.

My Purpose In Life


I know I'm still here because I have purpose in life. Everybody has a purpose in life. If not, then why are you here? Let me guess, you have know idea. Or at least you think you know. You know growing up in church,and everybody in church telling me god has a job for me to do, and I believe that is true. Because everybody has a purpose in life. Everything happens for a reason. Maybe my motorcycle accident had something to do with my purpose in life. Once you've tried to accomplish some things in life, things always seam to go wrong.

School


When I graduated, I was suppose to go straight to college but some things came up. I procrastinated. Well I did go to school for about one week, at OU. When I had my motorcycle accident, I realised that maybe it was a wake up call. That I needed to do better in life. That god has something better for me. So I'm back in school and I plan to finish. Without an education your pretty mush screwed. As you read I can play football anymore. So school is the best way for me to go.

My Future


People kept telling me that I have a promising future and I believe what they are saying. But the way things are going it just does not seem like it. But I thought that I was not going to get better when I was in the hospital, but I did. I thought that I wasn't ever going to get finished with therapy, but I did. And my future looks better and better everyday. Everying people were telling me seamed like it was coming true. I guess thats why I work so hard, because I don't want to stay at the same level I'm at now. I learned the hard way. That your family will be there with you when you need them the most, and that your so called friends won't. Some will but most won't.

Life


I was born Janurary 15, 1987, and from that day on my life has been pretty good. Until september 11, 2007 when I had an motorcycle accident, it changed my life. I was not able to play football anymore. I wasn't able to do to much of anything anymore. I could not walk. I can now of course. Because of god most of all, my family, mom and dad was there like nobody else, cousins etc. Everything has gotten a lot better since then. Now I'm 21 and back in school. I always say things could be worse, and try to look at the bright side of things. Well not everything my 6 year old sister passed away on september 29, 2008. A lot of sh**t has happened in the last two years. Hey, but thats life, Now don't get me wrong it hurt. But I have to move on.

Music is my thang


I listen to music to calm myself down. I like many different kinds of music like rap, and R&B. Well thats only two different kinds. All R&B and rap is not good, thats why I said I like many different kinds of music. It takes my mind off of certain things. Things that are stressful, etc. I would even listen to music while I rode my motorcycle.






THINGS TO FOCUS ON NOW!!!


My sister passing will forever be on my mind, but I have to continue focusing on school and the rest of my life. I can't spend too much time on just thinking about her. I really don't know what to do right now. I guess I need someone in my life to comfort me. The support from someone else preferably a girlfriend or wife. I'm going to try to focus on my major and that's Law Enforcement. Football would be something else for me to focus on since it is my favorite sport. I played for OU for about one week. Then I had a motorcycle accident.

Her Favorite Game



OPEN SEASON


Boog, a 900-pound grizzly bear living in the tranquil town of Timberline and who is domesticated by park ranger Beth, meets up with a scrawny, fast-talking mule deer named Elliot who is strapped to the hood of a truck that belongs to Timberline's top poacher, Shaw. When they first meet, Elliot discovers that he is missing an antler and can't find a way to get free and persuades Boog to free him. After an argument with her poacher arch-rival, Beth gets in the truck to get going as Boog quickly frees Elliot and escapes before Shaw can get after him.
After that, Boog never expects to see Elliot again.
Later that night, Boog watches television but is put to bed by Beth and falls into a deep sleep. A minute or so later, Boog wakes up and finds Elliot in the garage that Boog sleeps in and returns the favor by freeing him like he freed Elliot. Soon, Boog is lured outside by chocolate candy bars and he follows Elliot to Timberline and there, the two animals break into the town's food store and start a really big party as they wreck the store, but the party ends when Elliot runs out of the store, leaving Boog caught by police officer, Gordy.
After that, Boog is taken back home and gets to sleep to calm him down for his troubles. After going on Timberline's Nature Show as a career, Boog meets up with Elliot again when he is discovered by Shaw and chases after him. Boog tries to get the mule deer out of the way as everyone watches; Boog attacks Elliot, with Beth trying to stop the madness. Soon, Boog threatens to kill Elliot as Shaw finds them outside of the Nature Show building and prepares to shoot Boog, but instead Beth shoots both Boog and Elliot with tranquilizer darts. Gordy, who stayed after the audience ran off, prepares to arrest Shaw but he has run off; after this, Beth is concerned that Boog needs to be free instead of living in Timberline, and she takes the grizzly and mule deer out to the Timberline National Forest. Then Boog and Elliot get lost in the woods for 3 days before hunting season begins and the two start an unlikely friendship where they team up with the other animals of the woods to ward off Shaw and Timberline's other poachers back in town. At Open Season, things will never be the same...

Cherish


She was a video game head like me as you can see. She was very active, always wanting to go outside. When she passed away she took a piece of me with her. She never got to experience life for herself. When I think about her it is hard for me to concentrate on my school work. For example, when I play my video games, etc. I'm trying to find something to do to compensate for her being gone.There is nothing on earth that can fill that empty place in my heart.
