More Snow Days!!!!

We only have two snow days for the whole school year!  I think this is kind of crazy becauase 1/3 of the year has a chance for it to snow.  This year we have already used up our two snow days and it's only the middle of January.  I think that we should have more snow days built into the school year or we don't cancel school over every little thing because I think it's kind of insane that we are out of snow days already and winer isn't even over.
Even though being out of school is fun if we use over two snow days, the Edison Board of Education would start taking days out of our spring break.  I don't think any of us will like that.  All I'm trying to say is that we should be careful when we use our snows days and ask yourself is it really necessary that we take off today.  Please comment and tell me about what you think about the snow days.

Ecstatic Edison Travel Basketball Team

As you know I have been playing basketball for about 7 years.  This year am playing for the Edison Travel team.  This is a very organized league.   My team and I play for two different leagues.  Both leagues have a fierce competition.  Our record is 8 wins and 2  losses.  We are undefeated in one league (5-0) and 3-2 in the other.  In my opinion I think my team is very good at winning the state championship.  Everyone gives practices and games 150% all the time.  When everyone plays their heart out there is a 100% chance we will win that game.  My whole team treats everything seriously and practices hard.  We always strive for first place because we live by a saying:  "Second place is always first loser."

Everyone on my team strives to be the top.  We try to improve our skills anytime we get to practice.  Overall I think my team is very talented, athletic, hardworking, smart, enthusiastic, and always give 150% all the time.  Lets go Edison!!  "You must achieve to succeed!!"

#1 Goal for the New Year: To Win the Basketball State Championships

My number one goal for the new year is to win the state championships for my basketball team.  This is my #1 goal because I have been playing basketball for more than 5 years and the closest I have came to winning it all was right there in 2nd place.  I have been craving a championship for more than 2 years.  This year I am very confident that my team and I will come out victorious.  Over the past years I realized  many things must be done to have a chance to play in the championships.  You have to be dedicated to practicing, you have to give 150% all the time, and you have to get your whole team involved because there is no I in Team.  My team and I have been training hard for months.  Every practice is hardcore and fatal because we need to shape up if we want a chance in the championships.  If we don't work together as a team and don't try our best the other teams will eat us up when we play.  The compettion is brutal; there are some teams that will physically hurt you and others that will mentally hurt you.  The way to handle this is to block everything out of your mind and give it everything you got.  My dad always told me to play my heart out.  I have my goals high and it's just a matter of time before I reach the top!!
