Black friday people

This weekend I was watching the news and saw that some people in a bigger city got trampled on heading into a target. 1. That to me just shows how dumb people really are. 2 I saw a really old lady in the back just pushing people not even trying to get in, she was just pushing people. 3 There is nothing that is that good in target!! If it was a best buy I can maybe see a little pushing. But that was just ridiculous to me. All of the people there just needed to be smacked. Plus it was like 4 in the morning that is also ridiculous.

Black friday drivers

This weekend was the weekend of thanksgiving. Normally this means people are nice and caring and generous. They are thankful for many things, but it seems like this is too much for people. They can't handle all the niceness that they give because on black friday the majority of people are horrible drivers and very rude at the stores. My dad and I went to hit baseballs in Cedar Rapids at 10 in the morning. On the way up there the speed limit is 55, natural I was going a little past it like most people only 63 though. Anyway that is besides the point. As I was going down the highway I noticed this large SUV right on my bumper, this frustrated me but I didn't do anything because I wasn't in a hurry, later on when he thought it was clear to pass when anybody who isn't blind or has an IQ above 3 would have saw the on coming cars and would have been think "whoa there are cars right in front of me, I shouldn't pass," not this guy, he apparently gunned it and tried to fit in, being as I didn't feel like dying that day I slammed on the brakes and let him in. He then found out that I was behind a line of 5 or 6 more cars going slower than what I was and he almost died to pass one car who is now right behind him. He is lucky that I even let him in because I thought about continuing my speed and not letting him in.

Class

Today in class we talked about how different people feel about religion. I partly agreed with Townsley claims. I am a methodist and I am not saying what religion is the right or wrong one. But the part that bothered me was the fact that he was saying other people's religion was untruthful. That to me is worse than just accepting what is going on. I understand he is upset about the different scripts being read at his worship, I also know that should most likely not have been reading a different script in a Lutheran church but he has no say in telling people what religion is right, or truthful. Thats what has been causing war in the holy land for centuries. We don't need Americans fight over the same thing.

Stress

This weekend has been very stressful, one our football team lost. Two I am already starting baseball on sunday. third I have a huge bio test to study for, but I have been studying for awhile but it is still very difficult to learn. I also have to give a speech on monday, that I haven't started on. To me this is crazy but then I realize this isn't even finals week yet.... I am not looking forward to that week at all. I don't feel very good about my test either. Every one says bio is way hard but to me I usually don't get very bad grades in bio but this last test I did and now I have another one so I am very stressed about this test... I can't do bad..

Football

This saturday Wartburg lost to Bethal 28 to 22. Our team played pretty well but overall I thought that we should have beat Bethal. Our offense had two good drives otherwise they stalled out after maybe 3 plays. I thought we should have passed it more because their defensive line was very big and it was tough for our guys to get position. When our offense passed it we gained big chunks of yards very quickly. O well its not my call I guess. On the defensive end we held out pretty well, the only reason they scored was because our saftey's fell for the trick plays. Other than that we stopped the run pretty well. They didn't get any touchdowns by just running down the field.

Football

Today we had lunch in Joe's Knight Hawk. We had lunch there because the football team is 10-0 and they were doing the play off selection. We found out that we had to play Bethal first round. Bethal is from MN and in 2003 Wartburg beat 27 to 7. Hopefully we can beat them that bad this year but you never know till it happens. NCAA rules say that in play off games only 52 people can dress. Im not to mad about this because I can't get in the game anyway because one of the players on our team has the same number. So instead I will stay warm and sit in a Clinton dorm room and watch the game in the warmth and also watch whatever other football game is on TV.

Nervous

Tomorrow I have to give a speech for oral communications. Normally i am not a nervous person, but I am actually nervous for tomorrow. I don't know why. Maybe its because it I am worried about not doing good. I know I have to do good because this speech is worth 80 points. I feel that I have prepared well enough to do well but I am still nervous. I also am pretty relaxed about things in life and I don't like to dress up, but I have to, tomorrow and I am not looking forward to it. Tomorrow will be interesting.
