Long island

All i hear about is all of these hurricanes, eathquakes, tsunamis, etc everywhere else except Long Island. People tend to forget that Long island is exactly what its name says. A long island srounded by water on every side. If we ever had any of these natural disasters strike near us wwe really would be screwed. I dont know how many poeple live on Long Island but think about how many of us would have to evacuate. Or even worse what if we didnt have a warning and we all just got struck by suprise. I feel like we take it for granted that nothing will ever happen to us and were invisible. Obviously not, look how many people got messed up from a minor storm that lifted some trees out of the ground? You would think that we were in New Orlenas during Katrina the way people reacted to a rather minor storm that places like kansas, florida, and missouri get hit with several times a year. I hope that the last storm we had isint a sign of things to come, because people will be going crazy if anything worse happens from a natural disaster.

Legal Marijuana

I was watching the news the other day and i see some scientist playing with pot. My first thought was "what the hell is he doing with all that weed". Then i found out that it was called medical marijuana and its now used legally in hospitals for people who have certain painful diseases. A man was talking about how much effort it took him to lift his arm and shoulders but once he started smoking this special stuff, he became much more loose and relaxed. There is also talk that pot may become legal in New York and even though im a kid i still think this might be the stupidest move the government ever made. Once kids start smoking pot they need something stronger and then they turn to schrooms, coke, and ecstasty, another big one especially in my area is Heroin. So why the hell would the government need to legalize the gateway drug to all those life ruining drugs? I truly hope this is just a rumor and pot stays illegal.

Concussion

Everyone fears them, everyone hates them and nobody wants one. But ofcourse at the start of spring break i got one. It all starts with drinking. Once people drink alcohol they become a completely different person and this time it was one of my best friends running his mouth. So he starts talking to an older asshole that nobody likes and then things escalted. My friend dropped a glass and was asked to pay for it and he rightfully declined. It then became a shouting match and i came in to the rescue. It went outside of the bar and then everyone started pushing and shoving and i ended up with a gash on the back of my head compliments to a brick wall. We later found out it wss a concussion. So it really was an excellent start to my first college spring break. Woooo Hoooooooooooooo. But i can honestly say i would do it again. Gotta always protect your friends and family.

Tigers Back

Tiger Woods said today that he will be returning from his long absense from golf in times for the Masters in Augusta. This comes to no suprise of me because why wouldnt the best golfer of all time want to take partin the biggest golf outing of the season? It a no braineron many levels forhim to return to thisevent because not only willit help him financially, but it will also help him publicly. The sooner he gets back to his winning ways the sooner people will forget about the stupid ass mistakes he made. I personally hate Tiger Woods even before all of these events took place.He just always seemed like he was too good for everyone but the truth is that he is a regular person who is just good at golf and apparently cheating on his wife and causing family problems. If there was a sport for cheating on wives then he would truly be an MVP. But until then hell be a regular person who made abnormally big irregular mistakes.

Islanders internship

I just had an interview to become an intern with the islanders and i truly hope i get the job because if i do i know that it can be a positive step in the direction i want to be in for my future. It starts in the summer time and is monday to friday from 9-5. Thats quite a heavy schedule for a non paying job, but its a risk im willing to take becausei truly believe that the opportunites and recognition i will recieve from enduring the process will be priceless for the long term goals of my life. I will never be sick of sports or anything that has to do with the Islanders. It has been a lifelong passion for me and my family and i feel that if i hadto work in any type of place why not let it be one of the most important parts of my life and get paid while doing so?

911 conspiracy

I never really belived in conspiracys, but ive been watching some videos lately of the theory that the united states government planned the attacks on the world trade center and pentagon to have a reason to fight a war on terror without the united states citizens goings absolutely insane. I dont want to believe that this is true but some of theevidence is pretty convincing. First is how perfectly the towers fell down almost as if they were on timed explosives. Second is that tower 7 which is 47 story building across the street actually crumbled to the ground also and was NEVER HIT with anything at all. That is the one that really scares me the most because no terrorist would have access to so manyexplosives and would notbe able to plant them inside abuilding so easily. So why did tower 7 really fall?

Marriot

Just got home from Marriot next to the nassau coliseum and it was a really good night. Me and my girlfriend stayed there after the Jay Z concert and had some good food and dranks. It was a good experience to just not worry about parents or going home at a certain time or where your sleeping. A nice stress free weekend never hurts anyone. They renovated the hotel again and the rooms were all brand new as well. It was pretty impressive im not gonna lie. I used to stay there years ago when my house was getting redone and its much more colorful and modern now. Im between classes i actually head over there sometime to get lunch and try and bump into the visiting hockey teams that play the islanders that night . The teams usually have breakfast at prime seasons restaurant at around 10am and then head over to the coliseum and take their morning skate. The life of an NHL player is definitely something i would love, but then again who wouldnt wanna live in hotels and travel the united states and canada while getting paid for playing hockey? if you answered no your crazy wrong.

L.T

The Jets are in competition with the Vikings in trying to sign the best running back of all time, Ladanian Tomlinson. His nickname L.T has been very popular for the last 9 years in which he has won three MVPs and broke the record for touchdowns in one season. Though he had a carer worst season last year he is only thirty and even though injuries have hindered him as of late, he is still a notch above most running backs in the league an dbrings a dynamic pass catching syle to his game which makes him a deadly weapon in the red zone for a TD at anytime. I would be ecstatic if the Jets could pull if off and bring him to the Meadowlands. Hes a player that i hated for years because he killed us when he played us but my hate for him will surely switch to love if he can put on the Green and White. Him along with Shonn Greene, Mark Sanchez, Braylon Edwards, Jericho Cothery, Dustin Keller, and Leon Washington would only make an already very potent offense even more deadly for a team that was one win away from a Super Bowl visit.

HOVA

I went to the Jay z convert the other night and it was amazing. He has this special ability to captivate so many people at one time and lead them or direct them in any way he wants to. There is a whole big conspiracy on him being a free mason which is a member of a higher up acolt in which people leave eachothers fortunes for eachother in hoping they have certain god given abilites. Rockefellar is another example of a freemason in which he had a god given ability to monopolize the world with his business. The modern day freemason is absolutely Jay z and i saw first hand what he can do to thousands of people. He has the symbolic diamond hand sign which means hova and is supposed to the the eye that sees all on money inside the pyramid. The fact that there were popes and priests at the concert was another thing in itself. Maybe this freemason stuff is really true.

The Late Night

I hate the feeling of forgetting to do something or wanting to be able to do something but you cant. Everyone should be able to do what they want to all the time anytime. I just came home its 1151 and i have to do this blog before times up for the day. Things were pretty average today. I made a pretty good cd went, went out to eat, and hoped the jets signed someone like Darren Sharper and the news of Leon Washington would get better. I miss Albany lifestyle a little but just for the weekend. I really dont think i would be able to go away to school theres just too much responsibility and no privacy. I do wish Nassau was a little more unique though im sick of the same type of person, i want to meet so new interesting people who arent worried about what they look like or sound like and just can talk without any pressure. This pretty much sums up my day and it actually felt good to write this.

The Banner

Tonight the a banner will be raised to the rafters of bethpage ice rink and i never would have thought it would be. The banner will read 2009 Champion syosset braves and i really cannot wait to see it. We were a hideious team for years but last season we pulled out some of the biggest wins is Nassau couny history at the exact right times. Cold spring harbor, Sewanaka, and last but not least Massapequa. We have never beaten those teams in the playoffs and lost to them all during the season but once the playoffs came last year there was a different feel to our team that i have never felt before in my 6 years in that locker room. It was the feeling of being sick of coming up short and not only was it a feeling, it was a reality. So tonight i will be feeling the wind of the banner raising up to rafters knowing that I was a big part of it and i will always have that feeling in my heart, and never be sick of that one.

Food Poisoning

How does it happen?, where does it come from?, how does it start?, where is it found most commonly?, what are the side effects?.... We all know the asnwer to the last one. My friend Simar got food poisoning the other day and was tested for Ecoli, which is a more serious case of food poisoning that can sometimes lead to death. Thankfully he did not have Ecoli and just had common food poisoning. I have never gotten it so i cant really speak from experience but it really sucks. God its just non stop puking or shitting, until it decides it truly 100% out of your body. We think he got it from a chicken and rice stand that we always go to in Manhattan but my other firnds ate the same exact thing and did not have anything happen to them not even a stomach ache. I just hope i never have to deal with what he went through because its really shitty....literally.

The smell of the ice

I have been playing hockey since i am about four or five years old now. It is my true love and its just always something that i want to do at anytime i love picking up a stick and a ball and just playing around trying new things and new moves. Its more than just playing hockey its that feeling that you get when you see your dad smile when he knows you just scored a nice goal, made a nice pass, or made a nice move, or in our case laid him on his back because we play against eachother every sunday for years now and hit eachother as little competetive thing thats now become a family wide known tradidtion. That feeling when you take the first step on the ice and that smell just fills your whole body and no matter whats going on in your life everything just slips away for the time being. Sports are just something that everyone should be involved in and should experience that exhillarating feeling that carries me away.

Car things

I was in auto zone the other day looking for som enew things to kind of spruce up my car, and make it look a little cooler. Its a 2009 altima and i love the way it drives and feels but its just a little too "momish" for me so i did a few thins to make it a little younger looking. I tinted all the windows, i put in these blue neon lights under the dashboard where your feet go. But even with those two things im still looking for another little spice thats missing from the recipe. I was thinking maybe a little spoiler, or maybe some new rims or hubcaps. It is a lease and i know that its pretty stupid im even putting anything into this car because i dont own it but i just like that fresh, shiny, sleek look in a car in the summer time when the sun hits it at that perfect spot.

Wiffle Ball

I miss the days of wiffle ball and all of my friends and family playing in the court. I feel like once people get a certain age they consider themselves "too old" to do certain things. Why? There should be no age limit on anything anyone wants to do. When im older i still want to feel young and alive i will never be the type driving a mini van or wearing old people clothes just because you have to. I will always do what keeps me feeling young, fresh, alive and ready for a new exciting day, every single day. Hopefully my kids dont get embarrassed whenever i end up having kids.

Dwi

How stupid can everyone be?. Long island gives our more dwis than anywhere in the united states so why do people still keep drinking and driving? I have 4 friends who have gotten them now and 2 have been in major accidents because of the drinking and driving phase. What really bothers me the most is that innocent parents and families and childern are in risk when these assholes are too bad to drive. I could care less if i drunk driver killed themesleves but its completely disgusting to lose someone who is obeying the law at the mercy of an idiotic drunk driver. There should be checkpoints at every couple exits and random tests and things along those lines. People will only learn when they are convicted hopefully they just dont die before that happens.

Trade Dealine

Today is the trade deadline in the NHL. After 3 oclock nobody can be traded or switch teams until about June. The average number of trades on deadline day in the past six years is 20. I hope the Islanders make some very significant moves. We have been in what they call a rebuild for years now and never bring back players we are always giving them away for stupid draft picks, or prospects who never work out. I want a player that everyone knows, and that can put the puck in the net or stop it from coming in. You have to spend money to make money in anything you do and that includes the Islanders. They never have a quality product on the ice, because they are never willing to spend money. All the cheapness leads to a lack of fans in the arena which leads to a lack of money or a loss of money in their case. So with that being said make a few good moves already.

Cancun

Me and some friends are going to cancun this june. I cant wait for this trip, i have never been to Mexico and cant wait to see what swine flu really looks like up close. Just kidding , but the hotel looks awesome and the water look crystal clear so its going to be awesome. 100 degrees everyday, bar inside the pool? How much better can that get. Everyone telling us not to leave the resort and i agree with them. Mexico is one of those places where Americans are hated in the small towns but loved in the resorts because of the money that we make them. Senor frogs is another place alot of people are talking about saying how fun it is and how you have to go even if its off the resort. We shall see but until then i really can not wait to go.

Kardashians

Oh my god they are all so sexy. My mom was watching the show tonight and i started watching too. They arent as stupid as everyone makes them seem too, they have their own show, own store, and one of them is actually married to Lamar Odom from the Los Angeles Lakers. The step father is Bruce Jenner too he was an olympic runner. Its one of the better reality shows that ive seen, at least there all doing something with their lives like getting married, having kids, and working. Jersey shore and real world and all those stupid ass shows make no sense. They consist of a bunch of drunk idiots who fight at bars, you can walk into any place that serves alcohol and after a few too many there will be fights anywhere sometimes even family parties haha.
