Wrong Day to Bowl Badly

I went to state for bowlign a few weeks ago. I was so excited and tried to do the exact same thing that I did the week before. I qualified first at regionals and wanted to bowl great at state! Although, the state bowling went terribly. I bowled a 170 game and two 150 games. I placed 14th in state. That may sound good, but there were 18 girls bowling. So, I was at the bottom of the pack. I was incredibly upset, but I was very proud of myself to get that far. Only 18 girls out of the whole state were bowling. I just chose the wrong day to bowl badly.

Valentine's Day... Yea, Alright.

Ok, Valentines Day is a scam. Shouldn't people who love each other treat each other great every day they are together? So, why did they make a holiday celebrating the ONLY day you should do that? People seem obligated to do nice things for their significant other for this day. They should feel obligated everyday. Valentine's Day is just for the stores to sel candy, flowers, and other lovey dovey stuff. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy getting gifts from friends on this day. It's a good day to show your love for someone. But, if you want to really wow your bestfriend, boyfriend, or girlfriend, give them flowers or candy not on Valentine's Day. Give them something on some random day, not the day you're suppose to do it.

Bowling State Finalist

I've just been going up, up, and up in my bowling self esteem now a days. I made it out as an individual at sectionals, regionals, and qualified first in semi state. There's only one more place to go, state. Although the Lake Central team didn't advance beyond semi state, I'm still extremely excited. I am also going with another teammate since she advanced as well and the whole boy's team. At semi state I bowled a 245 which really made my self esteem go up to an all time high. The greatest moment was hearing them announce my name with the high series, 609. Now I'm going to state and hopefully I'll blog something fantastic about that too.

Red and More Red

Sophmore Lauren Basting is posing for the picture in the once crowded halls of E Hall. After being told she was useed as a model for the picture because of her red hair, she laughed.

Cheese Head

Sophmores Mary Mulligan and Mike Ippolito play around during D Lunch. They have always joked around with each other ever since they became band buddies.

Cheesy Shots

Sophmores Mike Ippolito and Mary Mulligan share Cheese Itz in the cafeteria. They have sat with each other this entire year and have been friends since they joined marching band.

Stephen King

Most people read sad stories such as the Notebook and A Walk to Remember. Some other people, don't read at all. I read Stephen King books, the best books I have ever read. His books are terrifying, gruesome, and an incredible read. He is pretty much the only author I have read since the summer of my 8th grade year. The first novel I read was IT. And I loved his writing ever since. My favorites of his are Misery and Under the Dome. You probably have seen some of his movies such as The Shining. I have seen that movie and I want to throw something at the TV every time I watch it. It is NOTHING like the book at all... I hate it. There's no maze in The Shining! Anyway, if you want to read good book, grab a Stephen King book and prepare to be blown away.

As an Individual

I made it out of sectionals as an individual as well. This is a complete opposite experience from last year. I didn't even bowl for the team last year for sectionals and I was an alternate for individuals. If someone wasn't there, I was filling in for them. The coach did not believe in me at all last year and I have no idea why. No one did. She had it out for me when I got a new wrist brace without her permission. She had it out for me when I was getting coached by someone other than her. Well, I proved her wrong this year and I hope she feels awesome.....
By the way, we have a new coach from last year. She loves me.

Sectional Champs... Nobody cares

The Lake Central boys' and girls' bowling teams made it out of sectionals this part week. Not that anyone knows we have a bowling team or anything. We don't get acknowledged for anything we do or how far we get. We are a great team and we deserve something. WHEN we make it to state, something better be said about us on LC TV or the announcements. Bowling is just like any other sport, even though we're not counted as one. We are the LC bowling team and we will dominate!
