Halloween
A time my Halloween didn't go as planned is going to be this year because we are in Ohio for a game. The bus ride is about 14 hours away maybe more. Our game is on Halloween day which is pretty cool but its at 8 and we aren't leaving till sunday. Which means I will be spending my first college Halloween in a hotel. Kinda pissed about that because i wanted to party. Probably still going to do that in the hotel but we'll have to get up early and travel back to the UP on a bus ride for a long time. I would rather not be hungover on a bus. Also we are going to get home late on Sunday so I am going to be pretty tired for class on monday. I have a lot of homework to do over the weekend as well. So i feel like this Halloween weekend is going to be brutal and its not going to go as planned.

Gameday Wayne state
We got to the campus and our teamed looked really focused and I couldn't wait for this game. It was perfect football weather. There was 23 family members there for me so i was really pumped. I got the ball kicked to me and i returned it 7 yards. Also got in on defense and I had 1 assisted tackle. We were wining the entire game and then in the 4th quarter they kicked a sky kick to our deep returner and he got wrecked so he fumbled. Then they scored. Then we had to punt, then they scored again.. Then we punted.. again.. Then they started driving the football on us. Then it was 3rd and 14 they threw the ball up to the receiver, our kid knocked the ball our as they were falling to the ground. The ref for some reason called it a catch.. Like the kid dropped it, it was on the news and the people were saying theres no possible way it was a catch. So they go on to score.. Then we had one last chance to get a field goal or a Touchdown and we didn't make anything happen so we lost, by 3. It was horrible. But after the game i spent about 45 mins with my family. Took a couple pictures, Talked about so things and that was it, said love and miss you guys then got back on the bus 8 hours back to northern. We got home around 12, then i went to my buddies and we were up drinking till 5:30 in the morning.
Friday when we arrived at the hotel
I live 15 minutes away from Detroit where our game was at and i was excited to see my family. But, since the bus broke down, we got to the hotel way later than needed. Our coach told us we would be able to go visit our families for about 5 hours if we wanted to. We were supposed to get to the hotel at 4, do a walkthrough, eat, then have a team meeting. So by the time all that was done it would've been about 6. We had lights out at 10:30, so i could've went and seen my family and hung out at home for a little bit which would've been nice considering i wont be able to go home until thanksgiving which sucks but shit happens. I really just wanted to see my dogs and sit on comfortable furniture and my bed. And eat a actual good meal. But anyways we ate, did our meetings, and walkthrough then i went right to my rooms and went to bed by 11:30 because we had to wake up at 7.
Friday Wayne state bus ride
This past friday we were on the road against Wayne State which is 8 hours away. We take 2 bus's, a offensive and defensive. The offensive bus is in front of the D. We were probably 10 mins away from the gas station we always stop at right before the bridge. The offensive bus starts smoking. Like the entire highway is full of this thick smoke. So we pulled to the side of the road and we waited about 20 mins and the driver just said we'll make it to the gas station to check it out better. Once we got there i went in and grabbed some snacks and went back on my bus. Our coach stands up and says "The bus is shot were going to have to wait for another one." So, we had to sit at this gas station for 4 hours. We went to big boys and got some food. Then we started playing baseball, with a shoe as the bat and tennis ball as our ball. Literally played 3 on 3 for like an hour and a half then the other bus finally showed up, when i got back on the bus i fell asleep basically for the remaining drive.

Dear Jack Zielger,
The writing were doing is pretty fun. I don't mind it because we got to pick our own topic. At first i was confused on how we were actually supposed to write this. At first i thought we were just supposed to write the story from the character I chose POV but instead it is more of a argumentative paper. We have to write about how the story/movie would be better if the character we chose is the main character. But now i think i'm fine and i did it right. Hopefully i do good on this paper. On my first paper i got an A-. So i am hoping on a good paper.

Snow white Rose Red
I choose Rose, i feel like she would be a follower to her sister because she is younger. I think Rose would be less scared i guess about the homeless man. I wanna say she wants to help him more just because she is so young. Rose knows nothing about the man, or why he came there. I think if it was told from her perspective it would be more comical, a lot more childish as well. When her dad is all messed up in the story I think Rose would think the bearded man is crazy and the tone of the story would change. I feel she would be scared after that incident.

Woke up at 11, which is late compared to what i've been doing the past week. I went to the MP and ate a little food before we had to be at the dome at 1. The team had a lift at 2, Went we got to that i was expecting a good lift since we just played a game yesterday , our strength and conditioning coach went easy on us. Im really sore still. After lift we had our meetings and all that good stuff, Then at 5 we had a practice which i didn't practice because i sprained my foot. But the practice was only an hour long and we got a lot of work. After the practice i drove over to subway then we had study tables at 7:15, which is where im at right now working on this. And the other assignment we have thats due tuesday. So today was a long day and i'm pretty tired.
