My spring break experiance

This spring break was a non-exciting one for me. My family was going to go skiing, but I hurt my leg playing soccer before the break. My leg was all swollen and pink and purple and puffy. Imagine getting ski boots over that. That would be a challenge. Anyway, because of my leg I didn't get to do much, so I went over to my friends house. I got there and it was getting very windy outside, but I didn't think much about it. That night, we were playing my friend's Wii and then it started howling and going crazy outside. We looked out a window and the wind was so powerful that that it looked like a tree was bent over! We stopped playing video games around 10:00 pm and decided to watch some movies. My friend took me to his movie case. he opened it up and there were a ton of DVDs that it was hard to choose. We finally decided on two movies, the Rundown and Lord of the Rings the Fellowship of the Ring. We started to watch the Rundown when both of us get extremely hungry. So we slowly crept to his kitchen, (so his parents couldn't hear us) and we dished out some ice cream. The ice cream was extremely delicious and rich and creamy. In order to treasure the super amazingness, I grabbed a mini spoon that babies use to savor the flavor.

The ice cream gave us an explosion of energy, but it was slowly fading away. Eventually, my friend gave into is tiredness and fell asleep. I was very disappointed. I didn't know how to use their DVD player, so I decided to fall asleep.

The next day, we woke up at about 9:00 am. We looked outside and saw a whole bunch of snow. We flipped to the news and heard that there was a ton of snow on the ground and it was still snowing. My mother called me and said that she would come and pick me up when the snow would let up. It wasn't until around five that the snow started to let up a little, and my mother still couldn't come and get me, so I got to stay at my friends house another night. The next morning, my mom was able to come and get me at about noon. That was the most exciting thing I did over spring break.

How do you cut back?

These are tough economic times we are in now. Gas prices have sky-rocketed, (but they are going down) and groceries are costing a fortune. It is costing so much money just to heat and give our houses electricity now a days. What my family does to cut back is we turn off lights when we aren't in a room to save electricity and we turn down the thermostat to save heat. Also, instead of buying few groceries at one time we buy a whole bunch of groceries at once so we don't have to waste gas to go to the grocery store every five minutes. We are in tough times and people need to do all they can to save money. Just cut back!!

Soccer Cleats

I'm going to compare two types of soccer cleats, Nike Vapors and Nike Air Legends. I, Myself have had both Nike Vapors and Air Legends.
NIKE VAPORS

PROS: Nike Vapors are a stylish pair of cleats that have a a very narrow arch area. These kind of cleats are perfect for those, like myself, who have very narrow feet. They are very light and give the owner a very good feel of the ball. They are made out of synthetic leather and are a very comfortable cleat. I would recommend anybody to wear these cleats.

Cons: Nike Vapors are only for those who have narrow feet. Also, the synthetic leather makes your feet really hot and doesn't allow them to breathe. They don't keep your feet warm during cold games. These cleats can be very expensive and they last for about a season and a half.


Overall, these cleats were very good cleats.

Nike Air Legends

Pros: Nike Air Legends are a very good looking cleat and appealing to the eye. They are a little wider in the arch way so people with fat feet can fit into them. They are made out of kangaroo leather and give an excellent feel of the ball. The leather keeps your feet very warm during cold games and have a lot of give to them. I have these cleats right now and I love them a lot.


Cons: There aren't many bad things about this cleat. They are kind of expensive, but not nearly as expensive as the Vapors. The Velcro part at the top of your foot slowly start losing its stick, but that is really it.
These cleats are AMAZING and I would advise any player to buy them.

Nike Vapors kept me light on my feet, but Air legends have been keeping my feet warm. These are two amazing types of cleats, but i lean towards the Air Legends. I would advise any one to wear either of these cleats because both pairs of cleats worked really well for me. Both pairs of Nike's would be ideal for any soccer player.

My favorite sports team

If any of you have read my about me column you would know I am a soccer player, so obviously my favorite sports team is going to be a soccer team. Well, my favorite sports team is Real Madrid. Most of you probably don't know who Real Madrid. Real Madrid is the soccer league called La Liga. This league and this team are located in Spain. Real Madrid is one of the best teams in the league and their home field is in the capital of Spain which is Madrid. I like Real Madrid because it has my favorite players on it who are Sergio Ramos (defender) and Raul (forward and the u in his name has an accent over it.) I like Sergio Ramos because he is one of the best defenders in the world and because he has long hair. I like Raul because he is the Captain of Real Madrid. Well, that soccer team is the most amazing team ever.
