Blogging sux!
Pros and cons of blogging, where should I start? Some pros are you it has helped me become a better writer. I have learned how express myself through writting better because of blogging. It has also helped me learn how to put my thoughts into words better than before. Another pro is that it let me write exactly what I thought about a topic and it let me share it with others. Now for the cons. A con of blogging is that it takes time that I would rather be using towards something else like motocross. And it counts for a real grade and if you dont do them then you wont get the points. And it sucked having to remember that I needed to blog out of class every week. In the end there were more pros than cons but if I had a choice I would choose not to do the blog at all.

Claim
1)Are you kidding me? Smoking is so bad for you and is sooooo adictiave its not even funny.
3) Smoking cigarettes is so bad and so detrimental to your health that in China in the 1600s you would get your lips cut off if you were caught smoking. Smoking cigarettes kills 450,000 Americans a year. Thats a half of a million people dieing each year because of cigarettes. It effects almost every organ in the body. People say "it's not addictiave I could quite cold turkey" and I always say " then do it" but they never do. It couldn't be because nicotine is highly addictiave rite?

Berthoud Hare Scramble!!
This past Sunday there was a hare scramble at berthoud motocross track. A hare scramble is a 2hr race that doesnt just stay on the track it goes off the track and does some other stuff. You end up doing about a 8 mile lap so its pretty trying after each lap. I actually decided to do a relay with my buddy jared so we could share the 2 hours. My buddy started first and before i knew it he passed the finish line and it was my turn to lay down some quick lap times. We kept doing this and we would get to the pits after each lap and get water and refuel our bikes and mentally prepare for the next lap. This went on for 2 hours until it was over. We waited for about an hour after to see the results. Finally they were posted so we all went over to look at them. 5th!! I was pretty excited to get 5th because there were about 40 riders in all so 5th isnt bad at all. Then we got our trophy's and headed home to recover.

Music!!!
Music personally is a huge part of my life. Im always trying to listen it whether it be driving in my car or in my garage working on my dirt bike or at a party. It helps me concentrate and it helps me be calm. All my friends love music and love listening to it and we all love finding new stuff no one really has heard or finding abstract music. I can safely say that I listen to about everything. I listen to AC/DC, AFI, Afroman,Alien Ant farm, Atmosphere, The beach boys, Beastie Boys, Billy Idol, Billy Squire, The Black Crowes, The Black Halos, Bob Dylan, Bloodhoundgang, Bon Jovi, Bouncing Souls, Butthole Surfers, Cake, Cream Culture Club, CSNY, Dead Pez, Dean Martin, Dio, Dire Straits, Disturbed, Dr. Dre, E-A-ski, Elbow, Eminem, Flobots, Foo fighters, Frank Sinatra, Geroge Thurogood, Geto Boys, Giglo Aunts, Godmack, Gordon Lightfoot, Grandmaster Flash, Ice Cube Immortal Tech., Jay-Z, John fogerty, Johny Cash, Journey, Kanye West, KilswitchEngage, Kurtis Blow, Lordi, Lynyrd Skynyrd, MIA, Megadeath, Metallica, M.J, Notorious BIG, The off Spring, Outkast, Pantera, Peter Frampton, The Police, Phil Collins, Primus, Queen, R.E.M, Reo Speedwagon, RAGTM, Ramstien, R.H.C.P, Rick James, Rich Boy, Robert Palmer, Run DMC, Scareface, Scars on brodway, Slightly Stoopid, Smashing Pumkins, Snoop Doff, Stevi eRay Vaughn, Sting, Sublime, Sugarhill gang, System of a Down, T-rex, Ted Nugent, Three 6, Tom Petty, The trashmen, Type o Negative, UB40, Van Halen, Weezer, West side gang, White Zombie, The Who, Young Jeezy, ZZ Top, 38 Special, %0 Cent..and there is a bunch more. I think music shapes a part of a persons identity and it puts you in a group of certian ppl. I dont think there is anyone who doesnt like a type of music everyone likes the sound of music. I listen to a lot of different music and there still is a bunch I havent heard yet. The amount of music that is out there is incredible to me and the amount of different sounds is also incredible to me. So if someone says they cant find music they like you tell them "bullshit ur just not looking hard enough."

Doing Whats Natural
A summary of her belief is that she believes she is rite and beautiful whether her hair is straight, long, short, or nappy. And she believes she is rite about her being beautiful if her hair is natural. There really is only one major thing I noticed that shaped her belief and it is her desire to be free and that means loosing the shackles of others expectations. She balances the communicating and preaching well. She mostly communicates her belief to me instead of preaching it to me to try and make me believe it to. I would have to say her tone/voice seems to be calm and relaxed but blunt and to the point. Her tone/voice also seems to be very genuine and that this is what she really believes.

Formula Un (One) racing!!!
So I am a huge motocross person and believe everything that is ass. with it and I believe its the best sport on the planet and I am heavily involved in the sport. But my true love has to be auto racing mostly grand prix racing. And my favorite grand prix racing has to be F1 racing. The cars that race in it are probably the most incredible grand prix race cars and have so much technology in them it is amazing they could fit all of that into such a little space. These cars are worth millions of dollars and every year each team put millions of dollars into them for testing for the up coming year. I try and make sure I watch racing every weekend and keep up to date with the points and standings. After learning about these cars so extensively I thought, it is incredible to me that I barley know anything about these racing machines. I mean these cars are tiny they weigh about 1400lbs and the have a v8 stuffed into them turning 19000rpms and putting out close to 900hp. Now for a normal street car it red lines at about 5000-6000rpm which is just idling for a F1 car. These cars create so much down force that the could drive on a ceiling if they needed to. It is just amazing to me that someone could create something this advanced and this amazing.

Money. Can it buy happiness?
Money is a huge part of our lives and there really isnt anyone who can denie it. I believe money can buy happiness, but not in the sense of you go buy a car and you feel joy and happiness forever. I think a lot of your happiness has to come from inside yourself. I heard a study say that money can buy happiness in the sense of if you go buy something for someone or give a bum money or just give someone else money it can buy happiness and joy. As I look back I notice that when I give gifts I feel so good about myself and I feel happy. I almost like giving more than reviving things. When you give a present to someone you just feel joyful and happy because your saying "hey" I gave that person food or just straight up money and they got happy. But in the other sense that if you go buy a new car purse I really dont agree. Ya you get happy when you go buy something but I dont think it last that long. I think that money def. makes things easier which brings happiness and it also allows you to do the activities you love which also makes you happy. I would have to say that there isnt a human on the earth that doesnt get any joy from giving.
