Basketball Update

So here is a little update about the CVHAA Basketball team. We are now 15-6 going into the biggest week of the season so far this year. This week we play Albamarle Christian Homeschool out of Charlottesville on Monday then we play Evangel Christian on Thursday and then we go down to Brunswick on Friday. The Evangel game is going to put the winner in the drivers seat for 1st place in the VCAA. Almost forgot we went 3-2 in our 5 games before Christmas and after Christmas we placed 5th in the Brunswick Holiday Tournament and then we won the Steward Invitational after New Years. So thats a quick update on CVHAA basketball. Only 7 weeks and 5 days until the biggest tournament of the year for us, HSPN.

Basketball Update

Just a quick update on the CVHAA Basketball team. We are 5-3 and one of those losses was against Miller School in Charlottesville. Miller's starting 5 is so good that all of them are going to play D1 basketball somewhere. Two have already committed to D1 schools, one to Kansas and the other to Georgetown. 4 games left before Christmas. After Christmas we play in a tournament in which there are 2 defending state championship teams in the state of VA. So we have had a good start to the year, hopefully culminating with a HSPN championship in March.

Basketball Season 2011-2012

Yes I know that it is not March yet and most of my posts regarding basketball are in March. Nevertheless, it is time for the 2011-2012 season to start. This weekend we are going to Greensboro NC to play in the NCHEAC Preseason Tip-Off Tournament. We won the tournament last year in our first year going to the tournament. I will try and update after our games.

Thinking

A few days ago, Friday to be exact, I was trying to go to sleep and I couldn't and then it just hit me in 12 days my high school soccer career would be over. This is my last season playing with the CVHAA Patriot soccer team and its just been fun. We are in the hunt for a championship that we haven't won in 3 or 4 years, seems like forever to me, we finally beat Banner and Spirit in the same season, and I just want to end this season on a high note. So as you can tell I am a high school senior this year and will hopefully be going to college somewhere in the fall of next year, that's the plan right now but God could have other plans. But it just seems like yesterday that I was playing U-8 soccer in Hopewell learning how to kick a soccer ball. I don't really know why I am posting this but it was just something that I felt like that I needed to share.

This Week

Ok this week has been really weird here in VA. On Tuesdays at 1:51 PM there was a 5.8 magnitude earthquake in Mineral, VA. We felt here at our house and it was felt all the way up to Rhode Island, all the way west to Ohio, and all the way down into Georgia. Then there was this huge line of thunderstorms that went through our area on Thursday night. Now this weekend we are getting ready to get pounded by a Hurricane. All I can say that all of this weird weather will only get worse as Jesus' return gets closer. Check it all out in the best selling book of all time: The Bible. If you don't have a Bible check out www.biblegateway.com

and start with Matthew 24.

USA and Spanish

Ok this is a venting post. I was just looking through the coupons that we get every week and I was on the next to last page. Then I saw it a Gain ad for their cleaning stuff(I think that's what they sell) It started off well with their slogan for that particular ad in English. Then right below it was the same slogan, I assume it was the same slogan, in Spanish. Ok so if we are going to put our ads in English and Spanish and cater to the Hispanic community why don't we do the same for the Germans and Chinese and Japanese and Russian and every other people group. We don't have to do that because they actually learn the English language. So my solution to this problem is to make English the official language of the USA and require that when people do business or are in traffic court they should be required by law to speak English. So what do you, the ones and ones of people who read this blog think. Let me know it the comment section. Should English be made the official language of the US?

My Week

I don't know why but I am always a little depressed when I get home/leave the beach. Yeah its good to be home but I really like the beach. So my week has been pretty simple. Get up, eat, go to the beach, eat, go to the beach, shower, eat, watch a mob movie on AMC or Shark Week on Discovery, sleep, and repeat. Add in a round of putt-putt and golf  in the middle of the week and that's how I spent my week. On Sunday we went to the Channel Marker just inside AB(short for Atlantic Beach) and I had the best Shrimp Alfredo ever. On Monday I dug a really big hole on the beach. It was about 3 ft deep and 2-4 ft wide. It might have been a little bigger if my shovel hadn't broke, that was the 2nd one that I had broken in the two days we had been there. On Friday we rented some Jet skis for an hour and rode them up and down the Sound in between Morehead City and AB. Now we are back at home. So that's been my week.
