Life


    Grateful. That is the best word to describe my life and how I feel. Summer 2021 was the best summer I have ever had and I don't say that too often, it truly made me realize how grateful I am for the people around me and the ones who support me. My family is great and they truly support me in everything I do, my dad has nine siblings and my mom has four siblings so I come from a very big family too. I will always cherish every moment I get with them.

    I am also grateful for my upcoming basketball season this year at Ohio Northern, it will be my redshirt junior season, and we have a serious chance to be very dangerous if we all stay together and work hard. We are finally able to have a full season of 25 games, and hopefully a normal season, even though Covid is still around and serious. My freshman year was very rough in the classroom and court but my sophomore season on the court and classroom was much better and has me super excited to what this year has in store. More importantly, I am looking to take a big step forward and be a true leader for this team and help mentor the younger kids, because life is truly bigger than just basketball, it's about developing friendships and preparing ourselves for the real world someday. 

    I truly wish everyone the best this school year, I know how tough school can be mentally and then adding a pandemic on top of that can make it even harder, but if we all stay together as one big family, we can do some great things! We should all truly be grateful because we are at one of the best Universities in the nation, and we have chances and opportunities to do things that some people will never get to do, so never take it for granted!

Chapter 1-7

    After finishing our midterm in this class, I feel as if it can be a good time to talk about the first seven chapters and the things I have learned about social media. I am actually taking this class because I decided to pick up social media as a minor and I am beyond glad I did it because I  thoroughly enjoy learning about different aspects in social media. This is something that really sparked my interest because I feel like the whole world is ran by social media and cellphones.      Through the first half of this class so far we have learned about all the main social media apps. These include: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Snapchat. I enjoyed learning about all of them but my favorite was Twitter and that is because it is my favorite app and I also feel as if it is the best app to promote yourself and your business. Twitter is the app I have had the longest so I enjoyed hearing some information about it that I have never heard. For examp...

The Guardiac Kids

    The Guardiac kids, also known as the Cleveland Guardians, were one of the most fun teams to watch in the league this year. A team made up of the lowest payroll, lowest experience and the youngest team in the league made the second round of the playoffs and took the "best" team in baseball to a final game in the American League Division Series, before losing last night. I watched over 50 games this year, and every game had so much life and excitement to it.      This past Sunday night, I attended game 4 against the New York Yankees in Cleveland and it was an experience of a lifetime. I got free tickets and a parking pass and had fantastic seats for a chance to watch history. We arrived early and explored beautiful downtown Cleveland. Cleveland is a place I have always loved and enjoyed being there and exploring. Once in the stadium, it was so great to be back. The smell of baseball was in the air, and it was contagious. With over 38,000 people in attenda...

First Game, First Win

    Last night, we opened up with the first game of our season and the first game of my senior season. We traveled to Oberlin College which is close to the Cleveland area. Since it is closer to Cleveland, it was a long bus ride. The whole bus ride, it really hit me that my senior season is beginning and potentially the last season of my competitive basketball career. Besides that, I knew that this was a huge game, especially being on the road for our first game, it is never easy. I won't lie, I felt very confident about our chances going into the game.      We arrived at Oberlin, and the butterflies began to hit me for the first time in a long time. A new coach, senior season, high expectations, and the first game all added up to some nervousness. This game was a huge game for us if we want to change the culture of Ohio Northern Basketball. The ball tipped up and the game began. We definitely came out as I expected; a little sloppy but also nervous and hesitant....
