Sweet Revenge!

Last week on Wednesday Rory was sitting next to me in Spanish class. I kept stealing her stuff and getting her mad at me. To get back at me she tried to steal my pencil, but I had a good enough grip so that she couldn't take it, but she wouldn't let go. Now I knew that very soon she was going to try to yank it from my hand so while she wasn't paying attention I put the pencil (that she was still hold) under the desk and... *WHAM!* I slammed the pencil into the bottom of the desk! Boy was she mad! She started taking it out on my shoulder and forearm by hitting it as fast and as hard as she could. Even Andrew took her side! He was chanting "Hit him Rory! Teach him a lesson!". My arm was red for several hours.

If you know me at all you know that I never let things pass without getting even. I was thinking about how I could get her back when I thought, "How can I use her actions yesterday, against her?" Then it came to me! If you've seen my post about spring hill you know I have some "eye black" from my football days that I call war paint. Last time I used it I made a beard, this time I made a fake bruise! It was maybe like 20 minutes before class when I finally got it right! It was on my forearm right where she hit me and I have to give myself some props it looked really good!

As soon as I got in the room I told Andrew what my plan was. Well Rory walked up to me at the beginning of class to talk to us and she was laughing about how she abused my arm yesterday. Then I showed her my "bruise" and said "Rory, look at what you DID to me!!" Her face went from Joking sarcasm to pure horror as she looked at the nasty bruise she gave me!

She was like "Oh my gosh! There's no way... I'm SO sorry Connor! I didn't mean to hurt you that bad!" She was on the verge of tears when I told her that it was fake and it was so funny! She ended up hitting me a couple more times.

Ahh sweet revenge! Don't ever listen to those stupid guru's! Revenge is another word for Justice!

Call Of Duty Reflex

I got the game "Call of Duty Modern Warfare Reflex" for Christmas and I've been really well satisfied with the game. This game is a copy of Call of duty Modern Warfare that came out 2 years ago for PS3 and Xbox 360. While it's graphics aren't as good as the PS3 or 360 version it's pretty decent for the Wii. I'm happy that it has everything that the other versions had unlike call of duty world at war where there were no zombies and half of the maps.

Besides for the graphics I am extremely happy with this game. I would highly recomend this game to anyone with just a wii. If they have a 360 or PS3 then get Modern Warfare 2.

X-treme workout yesterday!

Yesterday I was bored and I try to workout when I'm bored, so that I make good use of my time. I hadn't done cardio lately so I grabbed my jump rope and started. After 1,000 jumps I thought that I could definitely do some more so I did another 1,000 jumps. When I got to 2,000 jumps I still had some more in me and did 110 more so I finished after 45 minutes with 2,110 jumps!

Right after the cardio I went to workout my abs with this one workout where you lie on your back and have a ball in between your legs and pass it to your arms and back to your legs. That workout is a KILLER and after 140 of those I finally was done and man was I DONE! That was a good switch up workout because I did cardio and abs instead of the usual lifting. Though it definitely isn't as satisfying as pulling out the guns, it has it's perks.

Results of working out for 3 weeks

When I started working out at the civic center I would do 10 curls of 35 lbs while sitting on a bench. Now I do 6 curls of 35 lbs on the preacher curl (a whole lot harder). I started benching dumbbells of 50 lbs in sets of 10 and finished up with a total of 40 reps. Now I can do a set of 15 with 60 lbs and a total of 37 times. I maxed out on triceps at 110 lbs when I began, now I max out at 140 lbs.

It's really awesome to see results in both looks and on paper how I'm getting stronger.

Offensive Football Recruiting 2011

I know I haven't been posting much about football recently because I have an amazing life! I'm posting right now a pretty brief post for the most part. I'll put down skill rank, interest rank, and order them by position. All rankings are out of 5.


Quarterback:
While Michigan no longer is in serious need of a quarterback rich rod likes to grab a quarterback every year. Don't expect Michigan to grab a top quarterback this year.

Braxter Miller: at 6-2 and 185 lbs Miller is one of the top quarterbacks in the nation. Pretty much considered a lock for Ohio State.
Skill rank 4.5, interest rank 2.

Kevin Sousa: He's 6-2, 213 lbs and probably the best combination of skill and interest in Michigan. Michigan has been rumored the leader but that could change with an offer from Alabama.
Skill 3.5, interest 3.


Running Back:
This year running back isn't in too much need but Michigan can't have enough star running backs on the roster.

Demetrius Hart: at 5-9 165 lbs Hart doesn't look like much of a threat but he's a hardcore running back with a whole lot of skill! Hart once was considered a lock for Michigan but that soon changed when he heard that Rich rod might not be there next year.
Skill 4.0 interest 3.5.

Jarell Oliver: 5-9 185 lbs. Oliver is an in between the tackles running back breaking tackles with ease. Michigan seems to be in the lead for Oliver after his recent visit to Ann Arbor. Comes from a talent rich school and has connections with some of Michigan's players.
Skill 3 interest 4.

Justice Hayes: 5-10 175 lbs. Hayes grew up a Michigan State fan but he knows that his speed would be best used in Rich Rod's spread offense. He really enjoyed his recent visit to Michigan but is going to wait to see if Michigan is going to do well on the field. I for one and loving the prospect of Michigan having Oliver and Hayes on the same field together with strength and speed.
Skill 3.5 Interest 3.5.


Wide Receivers:
Michigan got a bunch of outside receivers last year and are probably only going to grab 2 or 3 really talented wide outs. With Shawn Conway committed DeAnthony Arnett would be a fabulous addition.

Shawn Conway 6-4 185 lbs has been compared by many to Braylon Edwards! Conway is currently ranked the 2nd best receiver in Michigan only to Arnett. Conway is an unbelievably great at the jump ball. While he isn't a blazer or a great rout runner (which can be fixed) he has amazing hands.
skill 3.5 Interest: Committed.

DeAnthony Arnett 5-11 160 lbs has been long considered the top receiver in the state. He's an efficient rout runner. While Arnett is still considered the top receiver, Conway is in a close second. Arnett had Michigan at one time out of his top 3 now it's changing.
skill 4 Interest 3.5

Prince Holloway 5-10 155 lbs is perfect for the slot of wide receiver. He's a serious blazer from Florida who Rich Rod would definitely make room on the roster for Holloway.
skill 3 interest 4


Offensive Line:
With Michigan only taking 1 linemen last year there's a major need for linemen this year. Luckily for Michigan there are quite a few of O linemen interested in the Wolverines.

Anthony Zettle 6-4 255 lbs is an instate guy who has had Michigan on the top of his list since his recruitment started. The only threat to Michigan is Notre Dame who is getting a visit from Zettle soon.
Skill 4 interest 4

Andre Yruretagoyena (I'm gonna call him toga) is a 6-5 250 lbs beast that would be a great fit in Rich Rod's offense. Toga lives in Arizona and has contact with some of Michigan's players that lived near him. Toga is a nibble lineman who happens to be HUGE!
Skill 3.5 interest 3.5

Christian Westerman is 6-5 266 lbs and is considered the best offensive linemen in the nation! Michigan is in the mix with several big time schools so we're just going to have to wait and watch.
Skill 4.5 interest 3

Let the war begin!

My brother got 2 awesome Nerf guns for Christmas this year. We've developed the habit of grabbing one of the guns and shooting the other at random times during the day. Hunter likes the sniper gun that's got really long range. I like the "recon" that has a faster rate of fire but isn't as good overall. My brother has also gotten several bullets for it so that just makes it more fun finding bullets all over the place. Whenever I run out of bullets I just charge at Hunter and pretend that I have a knife and I stabbed him. He always starts freaking out when I run out of bullets and retreats to our room to lock the door.

It's official!

My family and I finally are going to Florida again! I can't wait till we get there in the end of may. We haven't been there since I was in 7th grade and BALD! I am seriously pumped! It really gives me a good motivation to workout more, to get in swim suit shape. I can workout today for the first time since Wednesday! I can't wait to get back to the gym and do my thing! Today I'm gonna start doing some pull ups with fists in and then out. I really feel the need to get back out there and show my stuff! As soon as my buddy Andrew gets a membership to the civic center I'm going to be going crazy with the weights!
