Sometimes

If I swearer I would curse this man into oblivion and curse ever decendent of his. I then tell his friends to abandon him and sabotage his very existence. I would encourage people to diminish his creditable so when he begged he wouldn't be forgiven.

I know I am making empty threats and I don't even know this man. It just seems as though his has no morals or principles of any kind. What person would stoop to such ignorance and stupidity. What person would express the incapable of having no manners when you are a perfectly capable person.

Seriously.

I don't mess with me;I will throw empty threats at you and shame your name. I will shun you with my greatest strength. I will do nothing. But write an angry rant...

Bow down to me. I am your lord.

Ok here's what happened:

I was setting up my lawn chair for this baseball game I have been dragged to (yup, its baseball season). So I'm setting up and being the 'nice-to-other-people-but-not-to-our-family-members' family we are we let this guy pass by us. Turns out he thought it was appropriate to smash his face up to the fence--blocking our view. Well, their view because I barely pay attention to these things.

Should I be mad? A little bit. If not mad maybe a little bit confused.

Am I mad? No.

I just...

I just needed something to rant about. This seemed like an occasion.

Moral of the story: learn your baseball park etiquette. Or any etiquette and apply it your life. The world would be a nicer place if everyone knew the unspoken rules of society.

Blue Jays! (The annoyance of sports)

This guy is cheering for his daughter's team shouting "BBBBBLUUUUUEE JJJJAAAAYS!"
I just sitting here wondering how does he get his voice to sound so loud. So very loud. It sounds like it is big booming speaker screaming blue jays.
This school's bleachers are just crazy old school. Like wood, old school. When have I ever seen wooden bleachers in such a setting. Never.

I want to look up one the names scribbled into the bleachers but I'm afraid I'm going to find some weird fourth year old on Facebook. Most of the names are really worn out so they are barely legible. I'm pretty sure that these are originally to the school. No wait. I'm absolutely positive.

I sound like an old person when I say this but they don't make 'em like this anymore.
The blue jays are starting to lose (the opposing team) and I'm supposed to say I'm excited for their failure but I'm not. I don't really care.

Anyway, since the theme here has been surrounded my sport related things I thought I make a list of some of the funniest sport quotes to make me feel better because I really don't care to be here:



1. "If practice makes perfect, and no one is perfect, why practice?" -Derek P


2. "The important thing is not winning, it's making everyone else lose."-Stacy Aguilar


3. "Hunting is not a sport. in a sport both sides should know they're in a game"- unknown


4. "Real men date cross country runners. Catch one if you can"- Unknown


5. " If you want to come in second...follow me!"-Unknown

(Quotes are one of my favorite things about life- I love them so much)

Communication skills

On Friday, I was staying after school for tutoring. well, I wouldn't call it tutoring. I would call it extra help for this big test coming up about our "Summer reading" book, The Stealth of Nations. You could learn more about my frustrations with this book here and here. I use the term "summer reading" loosely because my teacher's communication skills aren't the best and failed to contact people about the book. In return, he said he would push the test back. This is good thing because I get extra days to study and prep fro the test. He even decided to have studying and tutoring sessions. I didn't  go to the first two thinking that I get the  gist of those chapters. I finally decided to buckle myself down and go to the chapter 9&10 session. I knew for sure that my teacher was going to drop hints and basically give us the answers on the test so I was ready to take notes and everything.

My friend and I  decided to go with me to the tutoring so we both went to the class after the last bell rang. We stalled a little bit but decided to go. We sat down and three other people were in there. We put down our stuff. I pulled out my book all ready to learn. The teacher started talking and said he was tired and didn't want to do the tutoring today. He gave us a fake yawn and everything. We laughed and sat down. He went back to clicking away on his computer.

A few minutes later the three of them left. The teacher was still clicking around on his computer. I pointed to my watch and then to the teacher. My friend shrugged. I asked my teacher if he was serious earlier about no tutoring today. He said yeah, I was serious. Bye.

I stood there shocked out of mind. What does he mean, tutoring is cancelled? I thought he was being sarcastic earlier. He's always sarcastic!You can tell how sarcastic he is because I italicized, underlined, and made "always" bold.


I told him I had my thinking cap on and was ready to learn. All he said in return without looking up from his computer was sorry. He let us sit there for twenty minutes.

The crazy man. He gets on my absolute nerves.

Both our rides weren't going to be there until an hour later so we went to my sister's practice which was boring as usual. I rather not go into detail about that. It's not important to the story.

When practice ended, my friend's ride was there. Our dad still was no where to be found. I called him and he said he was still at work and he would be there in 25 minutes. I didn't really care to hear that. He was supposed to be here already. I reminded him. My sister reminded him. My mom reminded him. By the way, he got there in 28 minutes.

All I did while I waited was roll my eyes and become angrier by the second. I was so mad. Nothing was going as planned.

I guess you could tell everyone's communication skills were just not working that day.

Sitting on the sidelines

Hey everyone. I'm out here sitting on the sidelines of the soccer feild again. Yup it's funny how my life seems to he this planned out schedule type of deal.

His time of year is soccer and volleyball season which kind of sucks for me since I get dragged along to each practice (more or less).








I try not be one of those constant complainers but this is just one of those things that really bother me. I just hate it how they don't want to participate or go to practices but want to play the sport. It's either all or nothing. I don't like it when people do partial crap. 

This especially gets on my nerves how my sister dislikes her coach and gets mad every practice but continues to go to every practice. Why do something that claims to make you miserable? 

I understand that everyone wants their off days but you can't just dismiss everything you have to do to until the game and except to win if you are a competitive person like my sister. 

Ever. 






My brother on the other hand doesn't really care about winning or losing that much when he plays sports but don't ever mess with him when he lost one of his lives in a video game. Ever.

That's my little rambling for the day. Bye. See you later.
