The Video Game

Basketball

I chose the game basketball because it’s just like life because you have to practice in order to get better unless you’re like a superhuman or something. There is no “I” in basketball because it’s a team game and in life you have to learn how to work with others because it’s apart of our everyday life. In life you’re always going to win some or lose some just like basketball and you have to live and learn from it. This game represents me because it’s a people’s game and I am a people’s person. The goal in basketball is to make the ball into the basket and my goal in life is to ball out!
FYI: In slang terms ball out means making a lot of money or having a lot of money.

ABOUT TIME!

I am so happy I just finish my argumentative essay and it took me the whole weekend just to write 4 pages. I can safely say this is the hardest paper I ever wrote and I just took my senior seminar class last summer that was required to write 20 pages! To be honest, I really did try my best but I don’t even know if I wrote the paper correctly because the material was so hard to understand. Anyways I have about an hour and five minutes left to enjoy the rest of my weekend and I guess I’ll just see you guys tomorrow in class.

My hard essay

Man….. I am having such a hard time writing this argumentative essay about Plato, Sophocles and Marcus Aurelius. The problem is I don’t know where to start and I am still kind of lost even though I did all the readings. To me I think the reason why I’m having a hard time is because I don’t have ANY PRIOR KNOWLEDGE about ancient Greece and the literature. I guess I can kiss my weekend good bye!!!

My "Everyday" quote

I thought the reading was kind of hard because I had to go over some of the pages a couple of times to understand it but otherwise it was very interesting. The quote I chose is on page 26

“To begin with, everyday life does not exist as generality. There are as many everyday lives as there are places, people and ways of life. Everything is not the same in Timbuktu, in Paris, in Theran, in New York, in Buenos Aires, in Moscow in 1990, in 1960. In fact what do the world mean? Whatever is represented on a daily basis?

I thought this quote was good because it gave me my current theory of what is the everyday life. Everybody in this world have a different everyday life because we are different people by having a different religion, up bringing, social class, education, motivation, ethnicity, jobs and personality. We may have stuff in common or like the same things but we encounter a different everyday life because every individual lives a certain lifestyle. We are all humans and have been produced the same but we live life differently from one another.

What a way to start my weekend!

Before I start on my homework ,I wanted to post a blog about how unlucky I was last night. Just a few days ago my little brother just turned 21 and my three older sisters and I decided to celebrate his birthday at Muckleshoot Casino because he likes to play poker. I thought it was a good idea until I lost some money. It was bothering me all morning because I could have used the money to buy a pair of shoes or something but I guess its okay because my little bro had fun. I should of listened to myself and not play and now I have to finish my homework with less money in my pocket. Haha.
