High School was one of the best times of my lives all the memories i made with my friends. I live with three of my best friends in la crosse and i love it except for fighting over whose turn it is to do dishes and take out the garbage. In high school we were known as the kings of toilet papering. That is all we did in high school after we got our licenses because there is nothing else to do in the small town of Alma Center. Every weekend we would buy like 100 rolls of toilet paper and go out and toilet paper random peoples houses. I think i probably spent close to 300 dollars for all the supplies throughout high school but it was well worth it. The only thing that sucked about tping peoples houses would be once they found out they would get you back. My cousin found out we got his house so him and his friends decided to get a dead calf and cut it up and throw it on our cars which made me very mad so during homecoming week we just demolished his house and i put peanutbutter allover his windows and under his door handle and threw garbage on his car. We never got caught but we sure came close.
One time we were tping this house and her dad came out and started firing an airsoft gun so we had to run down a huge hill to get away it was kinda scary but the adrenaline rush was worth it. Probably the best one we ever did was when we tped my friends bri's house. She lives in the country and we had to get her back for window painting our cars so we went and got a whole bunch of toiletpaper. We knew she was having a big party the next night so we thought we should decorate it for her. We went out and started tping and then we realized that she wasn't home so i told my friend to text her and pretend like hes flirting with her and find out where she was and she said she was on the the way home from her friends house. We were like o crap so we waited for her and when she got there, she saw us and was pissed but thought it was funny. We started just giving her the tour of our work and she kept talking bout how its going to take forever to cleanup and we were standing by her pond and she asked me if i had my phone on me then she tackles me into her pond and gets us both really wet. We get out and she then takes my shoes and throws them into the forrest. I was like whatever i got new ones that day and on our way to our car we window painted her car and left. It was one of the most fun nights of my life and nights like that make me miss high school.

Cross country would be fun it is wasn't for all the running
One of my favorite sports to play is basketball, I played basketball all four years of high school and i still miss playing it. It was pretty much the only sport that i played in, i tried going out for football my sophmore year but i suck and so did our team. I think our football team won 3 games throughout my four years of high school that's how much we sucked. My senior year i wanted to do a sport in the fall that would keep me in shape in time for basketball. The only three sports you could do in the fall at my school was football and cross country. I thought about trying for going out for cross country but i didn't know if i would be good at it. I didn't do track throughout high school so i thought i would suck. One of my best friends was in cross country and he pushed me to do it but i still wasn't sure and didn't go to any of the first weeks practices but then i decided to show up for a practice. The first practice we ran 3 miles and i about died at the end of it. I decided to see how i liked it after a week and it wasn't that bad but i was right about sucking. There was only one more guy slower than me and he was a freshman. Since i skipped the first week i couldn't go to the first meet but the second meet i didn't really know what i was doing so i started out fast and was first for about a second and ended up second to last. That last person being my freshman teammate. Throughout the season i got better and I had a lot more fun than i expected. I got lost at a couple of meets which kinda sucked because one was at a forest and i didn't know which flags meant what way to go and at our conference meet the guy told me to go the wrong way and I ran an extra half a mile but still beat my freshman teammate. It was a good thing i did because before that race i told him if he beat me i would buy him some burger king. There was also all the spaghetti dinners the night before the races and then the day of the race. The best part of the race was the end when I used my final burst of energy to pass some people. My coach would always tell me why don't you use that during the race and i was like i don't know i just get this burst at the end. I also enjoyed all the water polo matches we would have and the girls would have like 2 more people plus our coach and we would still own them. I am glad that i went out for it and wish i would've earlier than my senior year.

100 Things To Do Defore You Die
One of my favorite things to do when I am bored is to watch television. My favorite things to watch are sports and reality television. Reality television has really became popular in the past five years thanks in large part to MTV. They used to have a lot of music shows on it but now it is mostly all reality tv and i really don't care because i love reality tv. It can be really stupid but it can also be really funny. My favorite shows to watch lately have been the real world, jersey shore, and this new show called The Buried Life. The buried life is one of the better reality t v shows that i have seen in a while because not only is it really funny but the people in the show really help out some people in need. The buried life is a show about four guys that made a list of a 100 things that they want to do before they die. The travel along the country in a huge van where they sleep and try and accomplish all 100 things. Along the way for everything that they do on there list they help someone do something that they want to do before they die. The first episode i watched, the four guys want to attend a party at the playboy mansion because they know that the playboy mansion has the craziest parties ever. Two of the guys think of the idea of making a huge cake and saying that it is a prop for the party. They make this cake just big enough for two of them to sit in and they take it up to the gate and say that it is for the party and the guards say ok and let the "prop" in and the guys sit in the cake for six hours till the party starts. Meanwhile the other two guys need to come up with an idea to get in. One of the guys kinda looks like Cristiano Renaldo so they go and get him a spray tan and make him look like him as much as possible. They then rent a limo and the one guy is the driver of the limo and the other is Christiano Renaldo. The roll up to the gate but the guards are smart enough this time to not let them in. The other guys that are in the cake finally get out of it after 6 hours of sitting in it and they party like there is not tomorrow. No one there asks who they are because people think that the must have a invite because there is no other way that they could get in. I thought it was insane that they got in and got to party at the playboy mansion that would be awesome. Since they did something on there list they did something for another person. They met this teacher who worked for a less fortunate school with one crappy computer. The guys then did some musical acts on the street until they had enough money for a new computer. They then brought the new computer to the teachers classroom and the kids loved it. This show got me thinking that i would love to try and do some things before i die and live life to the fullest. I recommend that you watch this show, it is on at 9 p.m every Monday night on MTV, you won't regret it.

Tinkering School
When i first saw this clip on tinkering school in class i thought it was a joke. I wasn't sure if it was suppose to be serious or if this guy was just doing this to be funny. I then decided to wait to see what everyone else in the class wrote on there blog of the clip so then i decided that it was suppose to be serious. I still don't believe that kids built this stuff by themselves because ya there were pictures of them building stuff and a video of a kid on a roller coster but the guy didn't show any footage of them building stuff. How do I know that they just didn't strap a camera on that roller coster to show to the audience that there was a kid on there. I don't believe in this whole idea of giving power tools to kids because I think they would just think there guns and point them at each other. I have a six year old brother and there is no way that he would no how to do any of that, he doesn't even know how to tie his shoes yet. I bet under 10 percent of the kid population that are that age in the United States would know how to do that stuff and are even interested because the world today is a lot different then it was 10 years ago. Kids are into video games and watching television not going out and building things. I mean some kids are into that stuff but not as many as there used to be. If this actually did happen i bet there were probably an adult next to every child so they didn't screw a nail into themselves or throw a piece of wood at somebody. I also wonder how long it really did take these kids to build this stuff if they really did build it. I think the whole idea behind the tinkering school is a good idea, like letting the children be in a different setting than a school and having more freedom but power tools, ya i don't think so. I also think camp settings are a really good way to learn a lot of different things and starting at a young age to go to camp learning places is a really good idea. I never know if i will be right or wrong but if i am right i feel sorry for everyone that went to that conference just to listen to that guy especially if they had to pay money. If I am wrong so be it life goes on and just remember don't hate the playa hate the game.
