Road Trips
Road trips used to be something I looked forward too. Fun events to wonderful destinations. But now that I have to make a regular drive between Oklahoma and Texas, the joy of spending 10 hours in a car has greatly diminished. Now I don't even want to drive around town because I'm tired of it. Things sure do change with age. Or maybe it really changed when I started paying for the gas...

Dilly Dallie
Thanks for the article from Glenda Hanson
Have you ever had a day where you felt like you were avoiding something at work? Well today I was doing some serious avoiding when I should have been focused and gotten everything that I needed to do done. This morning I did basically everything around the office that could wait, not the big project that I needed to be working on. I chatted with co-workers, cleaned up around the office, and dilly dallied on the way to and from lunch. When I got back after lunch I caught myself searching the internet for Philadelphia Direct tv and tennis teams in the area. About an hour later I found myself looking at Facebook pictures of people that I didn’t even know. I mean how random is that! I knew that I was doing everything that I could to avoid getting into the real work that I needed to do, but for some reason, I just couldn’t get motivated. I am really hoping that I get everything together so that my boss doesn’t notice what a slacker I have been lately!

Basketball
Basketball is my favorite sport. I like it so much because of the unique challenges it presents. There are so many facets to the game of basketball that you can never truly conquer it. The game is a learning process. You can compete against yourself, all alone, or play a game with hundreds of people watching. It is special, and it is what drives me.

Some good old-fashioned apple pie for Thanksgiving
Guest post written by Megan Hale
There are just certain things that you have to serve or it just wouldn't really feel like Thanksgiving. One of those is definitely turkey and another is pumpkin pie. But I personally like to add apple pie to that. There are just so many great flavors, especially when it comes to dessert, that taste like the holiday to me.
I'm not above experimenting with some fun dishes on the holiday too. But there are definitely a few things that I just have to have the good old-fashioned way. Apple pie is one of them. I like to look up recipes for other things online with our Clear. Who needs a cookbook when you have the internet anyway?
i really love me some homemade apple pie and I don't think that anyone who knows me would say anything differently. Even in the years past when IÕve gone to other peopleÕs Thanksgiving meals, IÕve had to check beforehand that they had apple pie. If not, it was something that IÕve supplied so that I can enjoy it. I donÕt expect everyone to understand my love for it, but people seem to respect it.

College living
Being in college now, most of my friends live in dorms. I share my room with two other roommates. It is small, and sometimes we get into each others way. Many people in my dorm have talked about moving out and renting an apartment or house. It is more expensive, but if you can get others to join you and split the rent, it really isn't that bad. The tricky part is finding the right place. The other part is finding the right roommates. I have discovered that living with anyone, no matter how close you are, can eventually annoy you. So you should pick easy to get along with people to room with you.

Sports Travel
My grandfather is a very dedicated baseball fan. He played the sport for years, and now he loves to talk, watch, and discuss anything baseball. Last year he had a dream, an idea that he came up with. Ha wanted to visit every ballpark in America and watch a game there. I wondered how he would be able to get tickets to all of those games. The chances of just showing up and scalping a ticket to every single game seems highly unlikely.
However, I should have just told him to use WorldwideSportsTravel.com . This website is easy, entertaining, and very helpful. WorldwideSportsTravel.com is a website where you can go and purchase tickets to sports games or matches. The best part is, it can be a ticket to any game, anywhere, anytime, and any place.
If my grandfather had wanted to watch all of those games from a regular seat in the outfield, he could have done it. If he had wanted to watch them all from private suites and the best accommodations possibly available along with corporate hospitality, he could have done it. All he had to do was go to WorldwideSportsTravel.com . They have the finest facilities available, and it is their mission to get you to the game you want to see. If they do not have tickets to your game, all you have to do is let them know and they will get them just for you. It couldn't be any easier than that.

Spring Break
Spring Break came just in time this year. I was definitely needing a vacation. School was getting crazy, teachers always assigning me constant work, trying to keep up with test and due dates. I was hoping that spring break would come as fast as possible. Now that it is here, I am very happy. It feels so good to just rest and relax. I haven't been able to do that for a long time. I hope that spring break goes by as slowly as it possibly can.
