well today went really good. it went by a lot faster than i had expected. auto design was over really quickly, and physics was a ton of fun. Math was actually quite unexpected. the test wasnt as hard as i had thought, but it doesnt mean i did good. i definitately did not do better than a 47% but ill have to make up for it with the next quiz next wednesday. i should get a perfect, but you never know. fifth period i came home. i had to get some papers signed, and then i ran back up to skool. i think i should have walked, cuz i spent forty mintues doing nothing. i took a little nap for like fifteen minutes out on the track. the workout was also pretty easy. four 1000's and two 300's. the final 200 meters in the 1000's were supposed to be a kick, so that made it even funner. i was dominating, even tho i was on the grass on the inside of tha track. well other than that its nothing else. tomorrow is gonna be even easier, since its a 2,4,6 day. the semester is coming ever so close to ending. and i cant wait till this saturday. i should be doing pretty ok in the meet. 5:05 and under and ill be satisified. hasta luego.

Well today was very mellow. i didnt do anything other than sign up for the job shadow day thing. i figure why not waste a day by going down to a local car dealership and spending the day there. Track was also very slow and boring today. We did 10 400's but we had to start at 15 seconds slower than race pace. 75 + 15 = 90! thats really slow. but like usual we cant keep pace and went faster. i think we ended up getting a 78. that wasnt good. well we had to reduce our times slowly after that. so we started at 90 and went down from that. our final three splits were really unexpected. it was supposed to go 74,72,70, but instead we went 72,71 and then dane did a 67 and i did a 71. that was not supposed to happen. but other than that it wasnt that great of a workout. well ive done nothing else that matters other than take a stupid little test. bye bye. check this out: "What Specific Sport Are You?"

Now Playing: "Page Avenue" by Story of the Year
Topic: Weekend Fun
 Haha thats so true <-----. I found some other pics as well but ill post them up on my site. boy what a weekend. i recorded the Australian Grand Prix, but havent gotten around to watching it. I saw the qualifiying rounds, and that was great, both Soto and M. Schumacher didnt run their second quilifying lap. Ralf Schumacher was the first one to complete it. he ran a decent time. Kimi Raikkonen did really great. he got i believe the sixth spot, but as the race was about to start, something happened with his car, so they had to do a second renissance lap. that sucked cuz he had to start from the pit lane after everyone left. but he caught up to micheal schumacher, and stayed with him, up until the point that i saw. My personal opinion is that Raikkonen is THE guy whos gonna give Schumacher a run for his money this year. I tried to finish my Viper RT-10 next Gen model drawing, but only managed to get part way through the wheel design. i need to add shadowing effects by thiswednesday for zero period, or else i will fail that assignment. well i went to gym in the afternoon yesterday, and i basically did more weights. im starting to see a really good figure in my body, but i think ill have to cut down on weights to allow more distance speed. i think im starting get more sprinting speed, than distance speed, and thats not good. still im starting to like how my body looks like. Today i went to some hillside on Ortega Highway and had a get together with my family, its was fun, cuz there was hills and an offroad truck. and we also had mountain bikes there and there were intense trials. it was really kool. on the way i also happened to see: 1 Ferrari 360 Modena 2 NISSAN SKYLINE GTR R33 a Porsche 911 GT3 and a Lamborghini Miura. The skylines were the best. for those of you(basically everyone)the Nissan Skyline is a Japan Exclusive car. importing one is really rare. there are only 10 GTR R34's in the US and im not sure how many R33's. but to import a $30,000 into the US is roughly $90,000 after all legal crap and taxes. and their beasts. so seeing TWO none the less is a really amazing sight. and seeing them on the road not at carshows is what really counts. that was the highlight of my day. well skool tomorrow, and the final week of training before the meet this saturday. good bye.

ok so heres the recent scoop. im gonna be running the 3200M for Ramiro next saturday at the Irvine Invitational. Hes gonna be running the LA Marathon this sunday, and he said hes not gonna be in too good of shape to run it. I cant blame him, hes going for a sub 3:00 hours. its gonna be just like last year, where he had me run his race cuz he wasnt feeling good. i ran my fastest two mile time that year at that race, so that was a major disappointment. York put me down in the 4:50-5:00 mile time sect, and 10:40 2 mile sect. its gonna be an insane race, and im getting even more nervous as the day arrives. this is the moment that ive been training for since november. i really am expecting great results from next saturday. I hope to see many of you there, as i give my shot at running my first sub five minute mile race. (yes i technically ran a 4:59.73 at Trabuco Hills Invitational last year, but that means i was barely under the Five minute barrier. That was also the peak of my season, as the rest of it was all down hill due to me running on an severly Injured ankle, including my 4:59. im not doing that again this year)The oast few days have been pretty easy. I have started to add cruicial details to my large side view car for zero period, and im thinking it looks great. ill be adding in the values this weekend, and ill try to post it up on online. physics was great. i got my test results back and i got a C on it. yes thats good for me, and now i need to do major work to get a B next test. Math was the usual except i fell asleep for the longest time without even realizing it. i woke up with 30 mins to go in class, and for the last twenty we had the funniest conversation with Wallin. he was telling us all this hilarious stuff. fifth period i just spent my time in the library, and Mrs. Little's class went as well. wow they are one really talkitive class, i could hardly concentrate on finishing my drawing. im kidding. Formula 1 World Championships also started. i saw the practice run along with the first round of Qualifying. round two and the race itself is tomorrow afternoon. I actually wanna get into F1 racing this year, and so im gonna watch all the practice, quilaifying, and races. Favorite team? McLaren-Mercedes of course. Favorite Driver? Rikkonen for McLaren Mercedes. its gonna be a great race tomorrow. well thats it ill talk to you later.

Fun times with my brothers

Now Playing: "Echo" by Trapt
Topic: Skool
Sometimes hanging out with my brothers is lots of fun. like today. today was lots of fun. my dad made us wash the mustang and the minivan. I was really tired and didnt want to do it one bit, since i only got three hours of sleep. but he forced us to do it so we had no choice. its also started to get a little cold so my hands are freezing a little.we actually get through washing it and all we need to do is dry them. but we start to play a damn little game. at first i really dont want to do it, but after some attempts by my brothers to get me into it, i succumb and start attacking them. we're ratailing each other senseless. were running out on the streets chasing each other, trying to get each other. we then take the rags that we were washing the cars with, and start throwing them at each other. it all ended when i got my ass chased all the way down my street by luis. i decided to give up. but apperently they didnt. they tricked me into coming out, and david poured the water bucket on me. i had a plastic bat and chased him out onto the front yard, but the mustang was still there. he jumped to clear the bush, and cliped the mustangs side scoop, completely tearing it off. we managed to snap it back on, cuz apperently thats all that holds it in place. but it was still hilarious. thats was about the hilight of my day. fun fun. well till tomorrow, good bye

So Much Anticipation

Topic: Skool
OK, so ive gotten incredibly tired over the past couple of days. Dollar has had us do a Mile Time trial, york made us do a 400M time trial, and today dollar made us so a 800M time trial. well i was only satisfied with my 400M time. the mile and 800M were horrible. I got a 61 or 1:01 in the 400M which was actually one of the fastest time that day. biggest shock ive had this season. My 800M time was a disappointing 2:25, and my mile time was 5:27. i should be running a 2:15ish 800 and a 5:00 mile. but i guess this is just gonna motivate me to run my fastest mile of my life next saturday. hopefully i get put into the same heat as dane that way i can pace of him, and run a good time. if im not in his heat then im just gonna have to pace off someone i might be able to recognize. But, just like last year, im running in the Varsity 1600M race. thats not gonna be fun whatsoever. and last year i came in dead last in a time of 5:15. im aiming for a sub five minute this year. anything between a 4:50 and 5:05 will be good. but i need to take care of myself starting this week. i need to make sure im getting rested and eating properly. Im getting really nervous for next saturday. ive also started to feel like im slowing down. i havent been running like i should, and im getting tired quicker. could i be burning out even before the season starts? well i better hope i run a sub five minute mile next saturday, and hopefully i can place in the top eight. i would feel really bad if i come again dead last. its my only race that day so im not saving anything. im gonna kick with 200M to go. ready or not, Track 2005 is here, and its gonna start off with a BOOM . . .

What a workout

Now Playing: "New Beginnings" by Trapt
Topic: Skool
Dang. todays track workout sucked. originally we were gonna be doing an 800 time trial, but that got changed when York wanted everyone to run a 400M time trial. that really sucked. i ran with Dane, Weston, and Wendel. Weston got the fastest time that entire day with a 56 i think. Wendel got 58, Dane got 59, and i got a miserable 61. not bad, but still i could manage to run a sub 60. the workout followed by doing four 800M intervals with one minute rest. the goal was to hit 2:40, which seemed reasonable. it was getting more and more difficult, but the last one was ok. we ended the day by doing 6 200M intervals with 45 seconds rest. as far as skool related stuff, um same old same old. nothing new. during fifth period i was around with Urtnowski and Robbie. it went by pretty slowly, and hopefully tomorrow turnouts out better. Sunday was boring i didnt do anything that day other than just go to the gym and do weights. im hoping to go again tonite, but ill have to wait and see.

Fridays ill probably not update this thing. hey its friday what do you want me to do? anyways. yesterday was somewhat mellow. Welke is seriously pushing my limits. Im considering dropping the class but then thatll put more pressure on me cuz ill have an easy A go out the window and so my GPA will suffer. Im trying to maintain a 3.0 here and right now i have a 3.2. If i can raise my Physics grade with this test coming up itll be even higher, and thats what im hoping on. In Alg. 2 I need to keep my grade at a C and hopefully with this next test on march 9, i can raise it to a slightly higher C. but im having a hard time with this section. Fifth periods are the best cuz i can do my homework in the library and not worry about it later that nite. but i just drew all period yesterday. Track was better than thursday. we did a mile "time trial", followed by 8 400M intervals with 1 min rest, 2 300M intervals, and 2 200M intervals. i didnt do so well. i ran a 5:27 mile which isnt good, and i ran the last 400 really crappy. i wasnt feeling it yesterday. but ive started to get sick again, so i need to get better by march 12. They closed the skool on us at like 4:45 so that really sucked. everyone was trying to find an open door after trying like 4 doors everyone was giving up. of course everyone knows that the back doors by the parking lot next to autoshop is always opened. or the one by ASB.so i snuck around there and opened it for everyone. I went to the CIF basketball game. it was kool cuz we won like 71 to 62. it was an intense game. i was supposed to go to a party, but Ashton never showed up. damn him. and supposedly there was gonna be this huge fight with the capo students against the sXe students, but that never happened. Basically after all of that i came home. not much to do in my house other than watch tv and sleep. so thats what i did. i cooked me up some microwavable dinner and ate that . i watched some tv and finally went to sleep at midnite. Well Saturday was a lot better. i was practically sleeping all day up until 4:45. so i really enjoyed that. i should go on a run today, but im gonna do that tomorrow at the gym. ill be doing weights tonite, hopefully i get around to it. thats about it for tonite. Good Day.
