Current Event 3- NBA Finals

This years NBA finals is between none other that the celtics and Lakers. So far it has been an exctining series with every game being close and exciting. Both teams are very evenly matched and both have a good mix of rising stars and seasoned veterans on there teams. Last night was game 5 and it was anything but dissapointing, the celtics were able to pull out a victory with key performances by veteran Paul Pierce and young point gurard Rajon Rondo. After last night the celtics have gone up in the series 3-2 hovever the next two games will be played in L.A. which will make things interesting.
I am usually not much of an NBA fan but this series has really gotten my back in to basketball. Both these teams clearly deserve to be at this stage in the season and both teams are refusing to go home with out the title. After seeing the celtics win last night I am predicting them to win it all in game 7.

Senior Reflection 2-Grad Parties

As the end of high school approaches so do a large amount of grad parties. A lot of my friends dislike grad parties and think they are a a waste of time but i personally enjoy attending them. This is mainly because of the free food that is there, lately its been usually sandwiches or mexican food, but aside from that i like them for other reasons too.
My grad party is on this upcoming sunday and I am really looking forward to it. Im doing it with two of my closest friends at a pool nearby. Im getting 300 wings and 20 pizzas from one of my favorite restraunts too! Some other highlights at the party include a cotton candy machine and snow cone machine too.

Current Event 2-World Cup 2010

This world cup of 2010 will be hosted in South Africa. The world cup occurs every four years and consists of 32 teams, with 4 teams being in each group. This year the U.S. has been placed in a group consisting of England, Serbia and Algeria, the toughest opponent is England in this group. The U.S played England in their first match of the world cup and tied them one to one with the U.S scoring a goal that should have been a routine save by the goalie. The U.S's next two games should be wins which would allow them to move on to the next round.

All though soccer is not my favorite sport or even in my top 3, I am still very excited for the world cup. With the U.S coming in second place in the fifa cup last summer they proved they have a chance to do better than usual this time. I also feel that much like the olympics, the world cup does a great job of uniting different countries and bringing the whole world together.
