UH OH...

NO blog lately??? I only did 2 and I said I would continue to do it everyday???

Well now I understand that this is impossible... every day and have a new life lesson? No way. But this kinda gives me an idea for a life lesson in way... kinda confusing.
Life lessons come at you everyday and yet you don't seem to get them! That's what happened to me the last week when I didn't do a single post. I just couldn't find a moment in which I could talk about and let people know what was happening. This is a problem in which we as Americans and human beings need to take a closer look at. For instance; the other day a homeless man asked for some change. I don't carry any change but instead had a 5 dollar bill. I could have given him this money but I assumed he would spend it on alcohol or cigarettes. Why would I assume that? He actually looked like he needed a meal, but me being the selfish person we all are inside, I passes him and said sorry. To give is to receive and I believe we all need to learn that.
I have a scholarship in which I need 30 community service hours... I have 6. It's about time I learn this lesson now.

Day 2

The day began like any other; wake up, shower, breakfast, then class. So my second class of the day is Critical Thinking. Its my least favorite class so it's a chore to actually show up and pay attention... I usually don't pay attention though... Anyways, so we are talking about fallacies right now. For those of you who don't know what a fallacy is, it's: A statement or an argument based on a false or invalid premises. Pretty simple. We continued to talk about the different types of fallacies and we got to the inconsistent fallacy. This means that it is a fallacy if one premise is not consistent with another. My teachers example was that he had a friend in 1974 that was very upset about Roe v. Wade and the legalization of abortion. He said, "I'm 100% pro-life!" Then they got on the topic of the Vietnam war and he thought that they should just nuke those damn Vietnamese! Then he said that he was inconsistent and was committing a fallacy. They are two separate arguments!!! You cant say that if someone is pro-life then you have to be don't kill anything. That just doesn't make sense. So I raised my hand and told the professor, "Isn't weird that you are comparing 2 different arguments and yet are using the same terminology? Pro-life is meant for abortion and not everything in the world." I thought it was a pretty good argument! Then he decided to tell me that he wasn't going to try and convince me and that I could think that. That is when a lot of other students started to agree with me. The began to say, "Yea he is right." or "The terminology isn't right here." It made me feel like a genius to prove a college teacher wrong. I'm glad that happened.
The rest of my day went on without anything else going on. At 5:30 I decided to go play soccer. Now I am in no way a great soccer player but i can hold my own. I do this drill where I kick the ball really high then trap it. So on my 1st try it kind of gets away from me and I go to trap it with my foot. That's when I slip on my left foot and flip onto my back. All of a sudden I hear this laughing coming from the parking garage near the soccer field, and its these ghetto kids laughing at me for falling. I'm not the kind of person to feel embarrassed so I laugh myself and tell them that they should come play with me and see if they do any better. Of course they run away and my plan worked perfectly.
The rest of the day was very uneventful as well. I worked out, cycled for 20 minutes, ate dinner and then watched American Idol and Mythbusters. It was a pretty average day but that's not so bad sometimes.

Day 1

Today is the first day I embark on this journey of blogging my life to the world… yea… weird I know. Its sounds different as I am typing all this down, but my days seem not so normal. I’ll give you all an inside look at who I am real quick. I’m an 18-year-old average American teenager. I am currently enrolled at the University of Cincinnati and am majoring in Electronic Media. My life long dream is to entertain people any way possible but I’d like to be on television as the next Ryan Seacrest… you’ll find out I’m a strange person eventually.

The day began at 9am when my alarm went off. The first thing I usual do when I wake up is to check my phone, like any another teenager, and then get on Facebook. My first text of the day is from my girlfriend Madison. You’ll be hearing her name a lot throughout this blog so I’m apologizing for that now. What bugs me about living in a dorm is that you have to wait for the showers. Now in my dorm we have like 14 showers but only 1 has the perfect temperature and pressure. All the other ones are either way too hot or have incredibly hard pressure so I always wait for the good one. Anyway, I wake up at 9 so I can get in the good shower, but this morning someone was in there. I was like, ok ill wait, I’m in a good mood, and he can’t be too long. 30 minutes later… he gets out. I have to leave for class in 15 minutes… oh shit-take mushrooms… a quick shower jeans and a t-shirt later I’m out the door for class.

So that wasn’t the greatest start but as I’m heading to class I totally forgot to have breakfast! NO LUCKY CHARMS? So I had to settle for Bugles from the vending machine… oh well. I get to class and the teacher isn’t there. We all wait for 10ish minutes and the teacher comes finally. The class lasts an hour and 20 minutes and I paid attention for like 30 minutes of it. I didn’t even have my laptop out either; I’m a great daydreamer apparently.

Lunch went by and then my Literature of the Holocaust class went by without a flinch. I have English after that with Greg Taylor. We banter back and forth while the teacher just kinda glances at us. I asked Greg if we had anything due and he said, ”Yea dude, we had to critic some website sources. Dang, of course I didn’t do it, but I’m an innovative guy! I pulled out my laptop and began to type and look at websites for sources, guess who finished in class before she collected it? This guy did. Got out of the bit of trouble without a synch.

Dinner was great today, Panini sandwich with French-fries… oh yea… it’s heaven in food form. Afterwards I went and played soccer for a while, it was entertaining to say the least. I went with 3 of my friends Danny, Laurie and Missy. Now I’m no professional at soccer but it was fun playing with people not quite up to your level… haha just kidding. We played for about 2 hours while these 2 guys played right next to us. They were kind of strange and weird. I also learned that apparently I have an old man shuffle before I shot a ball, whatever.

Lost is on at 9… I CAN NOT miss that show, it is fantastic! AND it is the final season so this is a big deal. So it was all about Desmond, which makes me really happy because he is one of the best characters. The shoved him in some box that exposed him to electromagnetic energy and he didn’t die? How does that happen? Only on Lost I guess.

So now I’m writing this blog now, which has kept me busy since about 10pm, and I’m happy to report that this has opened my eyes to many things about my life. This is pretty much my average day. Futures blogs will focus more on individual things but I thought I =d give you a taste of my day. I hope whoever is reading this gets a smile on their face from hearing about my reality and making it their own “Fake Reality.”

A New Day

Hey all,
So I had to create a blog to follow one of my teachers blogs in order blog about certain things and read other students posts to that blog and then I have to blog about that blog... wow. So instead of just having an empty blog space, I thought I would just blog about my day to day adventures. So if you don't like your own reality, enjoy mine. It can be your new "Fake Reality." I hope you all have fun reading about my life.
