Hurricane


Monday November 9th: Hurricane Ida is expected to hit where i am right now; Cancun, Mexico. I'm pretty excited which is a odd response for people that are going to be effected by a Hurricane, yes I know, But i've never been in any really dangerous situations before, Tusnami's, Blizzards or anything also not mentioning that were in Michigan . I really want to be apart of somthing like that, and just experience it, or i can say that I was in a hurricane before, I think that would be pretty cool. I heard also that it's not going to be HUGE like hurricane Katrina or somthing it should be small but still, it will be pretty cool. One thing im kinda worried about it that by the windows and doors water has been leaking in, so that kinda worries me just a bit. Ever since me and my sister arrived it's been raining, and it hasnt stopped, which kinda stinks because of little to no sun. But we've still have been making the best of it. When I went in the sea yesturday the wave were really big.I got plowed over a few times really hard. I really want to boogy board right now, its the best time too. But the lifegaurd is soo picky when we can and cannot. Also yesturday, I saw the most crazyest thing of my life! My family and friends were on our daily walk, when a huge crowd started to go by a part of a beach. This guy was swimming when he got pulled by the undertoe out into the Sea, but the life gaurd went in after him and saved him. So now im really aware when i go swimming now.

Free Blog-My Sports



My sports.
Even since I was little I always have been included in some way shape or form of a sport. My sports team was soccer when I was 5 years old. From what I remember it was a Livonia recreation team. After soccer season was over I started to play T-ball. T-ball was a start of something great. I meet three of my best friends who I am still friends with today. Travis, Tyler B, and Tyler T which we would call them were the best of best friends. When I became 7 years old I quit soccer for the greatest sport in the world......Hockey. After my first year of mite hockey I was hooked onto it and I've been playing ever since. I really haven’t tried to or attempted to try to play any other sports on teams; I was too interested on playing hockey and baseball. My first travel hockey team was the Livonia Knights. We were in Squirt AA. We had a pretty good team we one 9 tournaments and got invited to a Tournament of Champions tournament down in Ohio. We actually won that too! My first travel baseball team was called the Concealed Security Hornets. I was scouted from playing fall ball with my friends from house league. They were considered an AAA baseball team which was basically the best of the best. The most remember able moment I had was driving to Chicago and playing a World Series called CABA, and in that tournament I think it was our third game I hit a three run homerun to a 350 fence. Now today I play hockey for the ’95 Novi Ice Cats Bantam AA, this a totally new team to me I didn’t know anyone on the team when I first tried out, but now I'm great friends with each one of them. I also played baseball for the Walled Lake Vipers this past summer. I started to play a whole new position, Catcher. When I first tried catcher back in spring training I fell in love with this position. I always felt that you always got the ball and the most fun part of being a catcher is sliding to block a ball and gunning a kid down at second base. This year I hope to make JV baseball for Stevenson and for next year hope to make Varsity hockey for Stevenson.

NASA launches probes into the moon (http://www.newser.com/story/71329/nasa-crashes-probes-into-moon.html)

On Friday October 9, 2009 the National Aeronautics and Space Administration or NASA launched two Probes into the moon’s creator Cabeus called to collect evidence of frozen water. NASA had already found hydrogen within the moon which can form into water. The impact of a speed of
I think that this mission was cool and interesting but I don’t think that United States should be spending millions of dollars on a space mission like this. I think that we could have used the money spent more smartly, by maybe using it on the war that were facing. Also what If we found out there was water, what would we do then? If there water any source of water it most likely going to be deep within the moon.

Balloon Boy
On October 15 in Denver Colorado a homemade balloon was set off, but the passenger was a 6 year old boy named Falcon. After 2 hours in flight the balloon landed but no passenger. Many people thought that the boy fell out of the balloon, but police went on a neighbor hood search for the young boy. Later that day they found the boy hiding in the attic of his garage. The boy said, “ i thought i would get in trouble”. We also found out that the ballon was the boys fathers experiment.

Cancun mexico

Cancun Mexico



Do you remember that one special trip you usually get once of year? That Special place where everything is just perfect? Well to me that place is in Cancun Mexico. My family and I get to go once a year with our good friends the Bellis’s. In every November the kids, which is Tyler, Ryan, my Sister and I all fly down to Mexico. Our parents go a week ahead of the kids due to school. The plane ride is about 3 hours which isn’t too bad. Me and Tyler have always sat next to each other every time we fly, and it never is a boring ride, we almost always find something to entertain ourselves.
When we arrive we catch a taxi and drive off to our hotel. Our hotel is about 3 minuets from the city so we sometimes go down there for some shopping or for dinner. At the hotel is our parents always waiting there side by side waving there hands as we arrive. We grab our bags, and get our bracelets which tell the employees that were staying at this hotel. Our hotel is rather neat, to the south of it is a Lagoon but to the north is the white yellowish sandy beach and the big beautiful Caribbean Sea.
The Sea is the best part of the trip, from sun rise to sunset. The different shades of blue is really cool, you can really see what parts is the deepest and the shallowest! In the afternoons we normally spend and 4-5 hours in the water a day. We always play football in the water, the best part about this is the waves cause every time you think you going to catch it...WHAM! You get crushed by a wave. Near about 8 o’clock is when the sun starts to go down. Seeing the sunset is breath taking, seeing all the different shades of red, yellow and orange across the waves of the Sea.

My first day, (Austin Stevens)

Not this again....
by Austin Stevens 5th hr, Mr Feilder.

Walking down the streets hearing the cars going by, a thousand thoughts going threw my head as I walked to my first day of high school. Seeing the busses drive past me filled with students i got that old school feeling again, new school, new teachers, new kids.
As I inched away from the glass double doors looking every way to find the halls, I finally saw my hall. Getting there wasn’t so easy with all the eager students standing in the middle of the halls talking with old friends and catching up since the last school year. It felt like walking into the crowd at a Tigers game, not knowing which way to go next.
Finally reaching “A” hall I realized, “That wasn’t so hard”. Looking left then right seeing the numbers on the lockers progressively getting smaller I finally reached mine. Seeing the brown rusted locker I put my new bright colored folders and journals away. After brutally slamming my locker closed I went searching for the gym. When kids were finding their first hour classes the halls got empty and silent, like a abanded warehouse.
When I was down the hall from the gym, the bell rang, “I can’t be late on the first day!!” Went through my mind as I swiftly walked down the hall. When I saw other kids walking patiently into the gymnasium I realized I wasn’t late after all. When I found my class I met with some old friends and discussed classes. After the second and third bell finally rang I now know that the first few bells are just warnings. For the first 15 minuets of my freshmen experience was going great.

Highschool

Having the first two weeks of school finished, school has been pretty good. Nobody has tried selling me any elevator passes (yet). For the first few days I have gotten lost a few times but I managed to fine my way to my class. The second day of lunch was very odd. Me and my friends were minding are own business when a grape flew past me, following that one grape turned into a whole stem full of them. When we turned around to see who it was, we saw seven seniors laughing, what else is new.
One thing that I really like about gym is the fitness center. I think it’s really neat that they have all those machines for our use. Also I think it’s cool that if we missed a day in gym class instead of taking a zero we can make it up by going in that room and exercising for a certain amount of minuets and making the day up.
The bells were a problem with me. Every time I hear a bell I always think that I’m late, because I’m not use to the three bells. Another thing that I think is hard is getting from class to class, since everybody is walking in and out of their classes the halls can get very busy and it gets hard to walk through.
My least favorite class right now is Spanish; I know it will change late on but its hard coming from the summer not speaking one word in Spanish to re-learning it and getting tested on it all in one week. But I will have to say my favorite class right now is Physical Education. I really like the Fitness center and that fact that most of the time we don’t have homework.
This school year I’m really looking forward to the swimming lesson in gym and the Ski club. Last year I really enjoyed ski club at Holmes but I think this year it will be more fun.
