My favorite subjects are English and Home And Careers. I hate Math and Science. I never really seem to do very well in those subjects.
In science class, I did a really cool project on this Paleontologist named, John R. Horner. He made all kinds of discoveries at these archeology dig sites. Dinosaur bones and fossilized dino eggs. My mom helped me a lot with the project because I really didn't understand the steps of writing a "research paper". Outlines and Bibliographies and stuff. I put a link on the bottom of the page, in case anybody wants to find out about Mr. John R. Horner. There's also a few other links about Math and Research Papers. Feel free to check em' out.
I never really was much interested in sports, aside from the usual street ball with the neighborhood kids. When I was younger, I played Farm League and Junior Grasshopper Baseball for Kiwanis. When I entered 7th grade, I decided I might like to give running a try, and joined the Boys Modified Cross Country Track Team. It was hard sometimes, going to practice every day after school, after sitting in classrooms all day. But I really enjoyed the competitions and going to all the track meets. I'm looking forward to returning to the track come Spring time.
My dad lives in California, so, part of summer vacations I spend out there doing a lot of fun stuff. During past summers, we've gone camping, and went to amusement parks. This past summer, my dad took me to San Diego (hometown of Rey Mysterio). We visited SeaWorld and Universal Studios.
Aside from the Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon, I really like watching Chris Angel (Mind Freak), Max. Ex, Amazing Videos, Animal Planet, and other action shows. My mom and I are huge fans of WWE and attended the Smackdown event when it came to town. I have a couple of wrestling rings and over $400 in action figures. Our family website has three pages dedicated to just wrestling, which I helped my mom design.
I have many other interests, of which, I will talk about on my "Interests" page. You can also find some cool links to games sites and other stuff.
About the midi song....most kids of my generation may not recognize the old song, "The Wreck Of The Edmond Fitzgerald". I first heard the song, in my Home And Careers class, when the teacher played it, on the classroom computer. We also watched a movie about the famous sinking of the Edmond Fitzgerald. The Edmond Fitzgerald was a 729 foot-long iron ore freighter that travel throughout the Great Lakes delivering its cargo to various ports. On November 10, 1975, Captain Ernest McSorley and his crew of 28, left port in Superior, Wisconsin bound for a port in Detroit, Michigan. The ship ran into a storm baring winds of over 60MPH, on the Great Lake Superior. However, the ship and its crew could not fight the powerful storm, as it sank that very day, in the waters of Lake Superior. To learn more about the history of the freighter, The Edmond Fitzgerald, click on the link below.
