There are many different hobbies out there that are completely different. They can range anywhere from riding bikes to seeing how long you can hold your breathe underwater before you pass out. Hobbies can be things that are far out, or they can be something that many people do. There is not limit onto what a hobby can be. I have a different hobby and that hobby is keeping my girlfriend around for the rest of my life.
Well it all started at work. We were co-workers and our boss kind of hooked us up. It was weird to me because I never usually wanted anyone to find me a girl I liked to find them on my own but I decided to give it a chance anyway. On our first date we went out to eat at the olive garden. It was a nice delectable dinner with good talking going on. It was not as nerve raking because we had worked together for over a year so we could talk about things that mainly pertained to work. She was a really awesome girl that I never would have given a chance if it wasn’t for my boss. At first she just didn’t seem like my type. She seemed very quiet and not outgoing. Well she still is quiet but she is very outgoing. That may not make any sense but it does to me. We clicked very well on our first date and decided that we should be girlfriend or boyfriend, (or in john goldmine’s day it would be called going steady). I didn’t let myself get close in the first few months because I knew I was leaving the state and I wasn’t going to be moving back. It was hard for me not to let myself get close but I did. She understood why I didn’t want to get close, but she let herself get very close to me anyway. This would lead to what we have going for us today.
At about the middle of the relationship from then to now it would have been around the six month mark. This was the longest relationship I had ever been in, in my entire life. I guess I was happy and that is why I decided to stay with her. At this point I still wasn’t letting her in because it would only be a couple weeks now before I left for Maine. Well it got harder and harder to think about leaving her behind every day that came closer to the big move. Work got hard because we had the same schedule all week long, and she couldn’t think about me leaving the restaurant. It didn’t help that other people were sad and that just made her that much sadder. I know I may sound a little full of myself but I grew up there for ten years and had a lot of really good friends. It was to the point where I didn’t know what I was going to do. At this point I was for sure that we were going to break up and I would be single when I got here to Maine but that wasn’t the case at all. I couldn’t see her or hear about her with any other man but myself. I know she would find one in no time at all because she is so beautiful, so smart, and so sweet that any guy would love to just gobbler her up. As I thought about it more and more I just couldn’t break up with her. This was the time I finally opened up to her and let her inside. It felt so right that I knew I had made the right choice and I would never regret it.
Well finally it comes down to the lasted section of my relationship with my girlfriend. It has been the best time of my life with a girl that I will never forget. Of course being away from each other is very hard which makes the relationship very hard to so this is the toughest part right now. When I was back in my old town I made a couple mistakes that I can’t take back. She is not happy with me at all, but she found it in her heart to forgive me and take me back into her life. Since I have let her get inside my vault of feelings so much has changed in my life. She has changed me into someone that I don’t know if I ever would have been transformed into without her. There came a point in time when it finally clicked that this was the girl for me. It was hard for me to realize this at first due to all of the commotion of moving and past girlfriends but it happened with the snap of a finger almost. When that minuet came and I realized that I was in love with this girl I knew that I couldn’t let her go. The only thing that I really cared about at this point in time was keeping her. It has been a very rough last five months but I know and she knows that someday we will be together forever and there is no changing that. I can tell by the way she talks to me and looks into my eyes and says, “I love you,” how she truly feels about me. I have never encountered someone with so much love, emotion, and passion for me like she has and that is something that I will cherish forever.
Hobbies come in all different shapes in sizes and there is not telling what someone might do for a hobby. Where ever there is a hobby there is always someone to do it. The world is surrounded by tons of different personalities and different people that enjoy doing different things. To me a hobby is something that you love to do any chance you get and you always want to better yourself at. I know my hobby isn’t one that many people would think is a hobby, but it is a hobby that I intend to do for the rest of my life. I love my girlfriend and this is a hobby that I will work at for the rest of my life.

Class Reflection

Over all i think i enjoyed this class. I liked how this english class was different than all of my other english classes i have ever been in. Goldfine is a great teacher and i think he gives his input to you striaght and in a very good way. I really liked doing all of the different essays because it gave me a chance, not only to do my assignments, but to open up my mind and get creative. I have always felt that i have been a pretty good writer. i have never felt like i was an excellent writer and i still don't but i feel my writing has been good. i get creative and like to write songs so i usually am never at a loss for words when i write and i find that very helpful. One thing that i totally didn't enjoy was doing the I-Search paper because it just took me to long to do and i feel that if we presented it instead of actually having a big long paper i would enjoy it much better. i think in the future i will be a better writer from this class because of all of the writing we had to do in the class. i think i found the right english class for me though because i don't like the ordinary class, i liked this off the wall class a lot better.

Final exam practice

HOT 6 and a half foot light bulbs, glaring at me as I lay in the bed taking the heat just so I could have a tan. That’s right a tan. My first job was one at a tanning salon. This was the best job of my life. When I heard that the job was open I knew I had to go and apply. I had heard about if from a guy that roofed house and he knew the owner so I got in pretty quick. The best parts about the job where all the hot women that came in to tan, the fellow employees I worked with, and how easy this job was.
My first day on the job was a doosey. Just as soon as I got out of school I had to rush on over to the salon and get my training started. I was nervous at first like anyone is with a new job but the tension quickly faded when I waltzed into the door and met my managers. They were really awesome guys, who worked at the fire station and the salon part time, and they were HUGE. They told me that tons of hot girls came in to tan and I would get to meet a lot of them. I was so excited because girls is one thing that I love more than anything. So the first night of work I counted about 50 of them that were just about drop dead gorgeous. I was very happy with my new job. Sometimes the girls would ask you to put some of the lotion on their back for them. I just had to say yes because the customer is always right! All girls put stickers on their body somewhere when they can so they can see how much darker they have gotten compared to what they were before. It was always fun to have a girl come out of the bed and show me where she had put a sticker on her body before she went to the booth. It never ceased to amaze me where girl put them. Some girls put them on their ass, some on their boobs, and even VERY close to their bikini line. I would just grit my teeth and say, “Wow your tan looks great!” The job definitely had its distractions and its perks and that’s what I loved about it.
Now as I was walking through the door that first day of work I didn’t exactly know who I was working with. I figured I was working with a bunch of girls but I didn’t expect what I got. These girls were gorgeous. All of them were. Not a single girl I worked with was ugly in the least bit. They were all cheerleader from different counties around the area. This just made me the happiest man alive. The girls weren’t just hot they were so fun to work with. Every once in a while I would get mooned by one of them. Now this usually occurred after hours but never the less it was much enjoyed by myself. I was only a sophomore when I was working there and most of the girls were either seniors or juniors so that was even better. I was working with really hot girls that are all older than me and like to moon me. I knew I had to soak this experience up because I would never ever again in my life come across another job like this one. I always looked forward to coming to work because every one was cool and we always had a good time. It was one of the only jobs that I actually had fun doing and going to. The girls and I had great times and tons of fun working together in that salon.
Well when I first got started talking to the manager about what I would be doing I really had no idea what I was in for. What I was in for was a whole lot of nothing. All I did in the salon was clean beds. It was the easiest job that I had ever done or will ever have done in my entire life. Cleaning a bed took about 45 seconds. When I asked if that’s all I would be doing and they told me yes I knew at that point that this job was a keeper. I couldn’t let this one slip out from between my hands. The girls also helped me clean beds so I didn’t have to do all of the beds by myself. Most of the time all I did was sitting in a chair in the lobby and listen to the radio and talk to the girls. When I got to know most of the girls better they let me go out on dinner breaks. I would stay out with one of my buddies and eat for an hour and not come back, and all of this was on the clock. I would also bring back food for the girls to so that was kind of a trade off. But this was by far the easiest job I have ever had and I miss it so much.
Now some may call me gay for working at a tanning salon, some may even call me a girl, but I don’t think I am. Some teens look down on guys working at tanning salons, but not me. Some guy made fun of me because it is so easy that it didn’t require and MUSCLE WORK, but I really didn’t care. Any guy I talked to after 3 months of working there was jealous because, what guy wouldn’t want to work in a tanning salon full of hot girls running around in barely nothing and showing off their bikini lines.

Back to Kansas

this weekend i am going back to kansas for the first time since july. i am pretty excited even though my girlfriend is going to make me go to her winter formal with her. that will suck but being back home where i grew up will be alright. it isn't really the town that i want to go back to but its the old frineds that i havn't seen in a while that i want to see. i leave at 6 am on friday so i will miss goldfines class. that is devistating to me, i wish i could keep up my perfect attendence but i can't. well the day will be comming and i can't wait. its closer every minuet of the day.

Long Weekend

well this was a very long weekend out from school and it went way to fast. being out of school is just like the key to complete laziness. sitting around the house not getting up until about 11 and then taking a nap somewhere around 1. I can't wait until christmas break already. well as everyone knows thanksgiving was this weekend and boy was it a hoot. well dinner was good but i think the whole holiday of thanksgiving is kind of boring if you catch my drift. i have never been a big fan of thanksgiving. everyone makes so much food and does so much work to make dinner then we all sit down and it ends up taking is 15 minuets to eat the dinner compared to the hours and even days it took us to make it. and of course you know whats next... christmas. a totally different holiday. there is just so much more to do and the air seems so much lighter around christmas. sometimes when you think you might get flipped off by an old man in a caddy because you are going the speed limit and he is going 10 under, you might get a wave. this time of year is always the best and i wish it could be like this all year round. the whole world has christmas all year... hmmmm.

Saturday

well saturday was one of the longest days of my life. we had a lab day at the school that lasted from 9 o'clock to 2 in the afternoon. it was absolutley crazy. it just so happend that i had to go first with my presentation so i had to sit there for the rest of the afternoon. it seemed to drag on forever and forever. i wanted to go to sleep so bad but i knew that it would be kind of wrong for me to do that while someone was presenting. later that night was a little better though. i cooked some steak up and some vegetables and had a great dinner with lots of beer to wash it down with. well after i was continually gettting more sober i decieded to mix myself some screwdrivers. they hit the spot very well. i got really tired and decieded that i was time to go to bed after my long day.

6th section for the I-search

In the future I don’t know if this will affect me or not. It all really depends on if I want to stick with basketball or not. If I do have enough drive to stick with the game then all of this information will help me a lot. I will use the conditioning and the skills drills to the extent I would need to use them to reach the next level of competition. If I don’t stick with it at least I will be knowledgeable about what I would have to do, or could tell someone else to do if they are in the same situation I am in. I am going to be a physical education teacher for some high school that hasn’t been determined yet but I would love the opportunity to coach a basketball team, and a football team. If I coached the basketball team I know tons of drills now that I could do in practice to make my team better at all aspects of the game. The information I have attained wouldn’t go to waste inside my brain, but it would be channeled through me into my players. Even if I do coach football I could use some of the conditioning drills, because you need to be in shape for football as well. The conditioning drills are pretty universal and can be used by me now, when I’m 25, or maybe even when I’m 80 years old. Over all I think this was very good for me to learn more about because even if I don’t pursue basketball I will know how to keep myself in shape with conditioning drill and maybe someday I could get back into the game.
