My Unusual Weekend

  Most weekends I stay home and help my dad with a multitude of projects around the house, although on some weekends I go out with my closest friends and cousin. While at home I'll be working on different rooms of the house fixing it up. On the nights that I am out with the guys we mostly drive around towns, go bowling, or really anywhere. With these to activities taking up my schedule I do not have time to watch every football game on Saturday, although I always have time to watch The Ohio State football team. While this past weekend an unusual thing happened. My dad decided not to work on the house, and i did not go hang out with the guys till later. With my Saturday freedom I was able to watch a multitude of college football games. It felt great to just sit down and enjoy one of the best sports in America.

Best Football Game Of My Life

   One time during this football season we played a Cleveland jv team towards the end of the season. When we arrived at the field it was covered in snow from endzone to endzone. The coach told us to get our uniform and pads on, and then he told us to head out to the field. As soon as we got on the field he made us do up-downs, but me and my friends took it to another step and slid through the snow stomach down.
   During the game i played offensive tackle on the o-line. My job was to protect our quarterback, but one time these to guys tried to attack my spot together inorder to get the quarterback. Luckily my friend next to me seen the defensive formation and was able to pick up the closer of the two guys. This left me with one guy, so i grabbed his shoulder pads and drove him into the ground. This was the day i was able to protect my childhood friend.

Annoying Habit

   As a human being I have many habits, although I am not to fond of all my habits. There is one particular habit of which I have mixed emotions about. Which is my stubbornness. Being stubborn is second nature to me. An example of the downside of my stubbornness is that even though I sometimes have trouble in school I try and figure it out on my own. I rarely ask for help if I am not getting something mostly in part of the fact that I do not want people to see me as a weak or needy person.
   There is an up side to my bad habit that I do enjoy. To me being stubborn makes me more independent and capable to with stand anything. I feel more motivated and confident when I am stubborn because it gives me a new extension of stubbornness. That extension happens to be the fact that I don't give up on things that I want or need, which just so happens to be my favorite trait about myself.

Importance of Art

   Art is an important aspect of my life because it allows my creative side to come out. Art gives me the time to express myself  and show others the artistic side of me. I enjoy drawing and sketching it relaxes me. To kids and teenagers the ability to express themselves is all they need to grow and develop their own personality. Adults do not always understand the need for art because they are almost always trying to force kids to act a certain way due to their personal opinions. For example, adults tend to get their children to try and mature to early in order for the kids to be successful in their parents eyes.
