What goes around comes around
Karma is one thing that I strongly believe in. Even though its hard to see when it actually happens, I feel it has a strong influence on a lot of people and defines who we really are. It brings out your character and reflects how people around you act or how you should be treated.
Someone once told me, ”Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, but teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” I have lived by this saying most of my life. The meaning this saying portrays is extremely deep, in the sense that people should always go out of their way to help others. No matter how big or small that task is, always put forth more effort to help than most people would. Once this is done you have instantly gained their respect towards you and one day they will return the favor.
Before I moved to Ohio a few years ago, my old school was pretty nice. I had a lot of friends and was pretty well known, and everyday I noticed this kid who was constantly being picked on because of his size and the way he dressed. This was very difficult for me to watch and because I’d had enough I decided to become his friend regardless of what other people thought. Everyone was surprised and I even lost a few friends because of this.
As time went on, people actually started liking him. Our friendship gave him a chance to open up to others around him. They got to know him for who he really was and not by what he looked like. To this day he is still my friend and has taken me to NFL football game, live concerts, and even to Florida all in return for this friendship. I was not expecting any of this and was completely unaware of how much fun this kid really was to be around. I remember going to his house and his dad came up to me and said, “ My son is so glad you’re his friend, he’s never had such a friend like you and he talks about you constantly. Keep reaching out to people and don’t ever change.” Those words stuck with me for awhile and I really felt good about myself.
I believe everything happens for a reason and that karma can happen when you least expect it and sometimes you wont even know its happening unless you really stop and think about it. Depending on weather its bad or good, depends on you and how you act towards others. So be a good person everyday, it’s not going to kill you to make a new friend or help someone study or say thank you when given the opportunity. We can’t expect much from someone who’s mean and disrespectful or just to lazy to care. Plus you never know when you will be that person in life in need of a favor like the hungry man in need of some food.

Mr. Potters promise
hmmm....i dont know what to write about this week...you wanna know whats really bad though? i always seem to wait untill the last possiable minute to write these bloggs. Most of the time its because i forget about them, and when i remember i dont feel like trying to remember my password to login in and no matter what i do i always forget it, it never fails haha. I tried writing my password down on a peice of paper but then i lose the paper once i get around to loggin back in to write my next blog. People always tell me not to wait untill the last minute to do things cause it will hurt me in the long run. I will probably be facing alot of all nighters once i get to college, but as long as it gets done i guess thats all that matters. The next blogg i write it gonna be early! thats my promise to you Mr. P :)

Mcdonalds
i work at mcdonalds and those 50 peice nugget things for 9.99 are really annoying me because everyone keeps commin through to get them. Oneday we actually ran out of nuggest because so many people were comming to get them. People were like really mad their like what kinda mcdonalds runs out of chicken nuggets haha. For some reason they made me drive to another mcdonalds and get nuggests from them and it was all good. But its still a pain working there. Some days i'll work drive thru and i hate when we get people with axcents or from different countried cause you cant understand them no matter how hard you try! One time i had to get this guy to write down on a peice of paper what he wanted cause i had no idea what he was sayin, it was horriable. The pay kinda sucks to you geta raise after 1 year and its only like 16cents!!
Friday night
Ok so i went to the football game on friday and o my god it was horriable! I so thought we were gonna win because we were up like 20-0 the whole game, then the other team finally put up 7 in the 4th quarter. I left after that because there was only 4 minutes left on the clock and there was noooo way that they could come back. As i was walking to the parking lot tho i recived a text saying that they scored, and then another one 5minutes later saying that they scored. So in the time it took me to walk from the stadium to my car they scored twice and we ended up losing 21-20. Which i thought was really dumb how does a team put up 21 point in 4 minutes!!! i keep hearing rumors that they might fire coach snoad and how everyones wondering how he got a team that couldnt win for years to start winning. Then again the team he use to coach was like dvision 3 and didnt really play anyone hard like we do haha. i quit football for this reason cause our team i feel just doesnt work as a team should on the feild and thats why we lose.

Homecomming shopping!!
For all of you guys out there take my word!! DONT EVER GO HOMECOMMING SHOPPING WITH A GROUP OF GIRLS!!!!! 1st off i didnt even wanna go, but i got roped into it cause my date sorta forced me too. She tried to make me feel all bad untill i said yes to going. Then when we got easton, they went to macys and took just about every dress they had in there into the dressing room. Then they came out one by one wearing dress after dress making us decide which ones we liked knowing full well they were gonna choose w/e they wanted!! Then it was time to get the shoes i had to hope about 10 boxs of shoes while everyone was looking at me like i was weird haha. And you probably wont belive me when i say this but we went to 4 different stores just to find one perfect pair of earring that matched the dresses they had. but the good news out of all of this is....we went to cici's after and I forced her to eat 3 plates of food :) my payback felt good
