sleepy . . . really really sleepy! im pretty much at the point where i am really tired from exhaustion. i mean dead tired. todays track workout was supposed to be 4 sets of 4 200's and i only did the first set before i had to stop. i was barely hitting 35's and i was sprinting and completely dead after each one. thats not good at all. at the rate i was doing them i should have been hitting at least 31. but o well. The sophomores are taking the CAHSEE today and tomorrow. so that means that we get minimum days for today and tomorrow. thats always good. i have to ace my next test and this quiz for wallin in order to bring my grade back up to a reasonable position. i CANNOT fail again this semester. today was eh. nothing fun or important. thats about it. o well. maybe tomorrow turns out more intersting. haha Fighting with trees, you're retarded.

Topic: Skool
Ok So here's the New Motto. Luis gave it to me and ive decided to adopt it as my new Motto. The one i was using previously for my training during the winter break was clean and simple, 'Somewhere in the world, someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.' Well now ive got a racing motto. Practice Hard. Race Even Harder!after that disappointing mile race, im gonna need to run a sub 4:55 at katella this weekend. and im not gonna be happy if i dont even get into the sub five group.This weekend is gonna be insanely fun. and im not gonna hold anything back, ill just have to go out there and race smarter. Im running for sure the Varsity 4X800M and 4X1600M. i wouls also like to runa third race, but ill check out how things are going later on this week. Damn it i stayed up till 3:10 AM finishing homework on sunday night, and i woke up at 7:30 to go to skool. it was boring, i turned in all assignments. ive decided to do all my homework from now on no matter what time it means i have to go to sleep. we finally did watertower the tneire way after the longest time. it was great. and a 300 sprint for a final kick in. today has been an ok day, but im just really exhausted. adios.

I Failed Miserably . . .

GOD DAMN IT!!!!I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS! i missed out on my chance to win a race and earn five Varsity Points!!! Heres the scoop. I was entered the run in the first heat of the Varsity 1600M which was seeded with runners who run a 4:55 ish mile. Well it turns out i missed final call for that race. And heres the worst part. THE RACE WAS WON IN A FREAKING 5:01!!!!!!!!!!!! Had i run that race i could have beaten that guy! I am not too happy about that race whatsoever. i still ran the mile. but in an amazingly slow time. Two months ago i ran faster than yesterday! Katella is gonna be the time for me. i told Coach Dollar to put me in a mile and two mile race if possible. but in as many Mile races. i have to break 4:55 next weekend, and ill definitely break that in two weeks against Mission. But here is the most hilarious part. I ran the 400M about an hour after the dissappointing mile race, and i actually ran a good time. 58.5! i beat my fastest time from last year. and i was still a little out of breath for that race. that i found to be a really great time. and i actually beat three people over all!! not bad for a miler who doesnt train for the 400. and yea it was Varsity. haha, that was the best. Well i had a long time till the 4x400 relay. so i just hung around with heather and jackie for most of the time. it was enjoyable. Now this is the greatest thing ever. im running the 4x400 relay, and this is still Varsity level.so most of these guys have been training for this event for a good 3/4 years. I DONT RUN THE 400 OR EVEN TRAIN FOR IT! somehow i managed to run a 57.0 for my split, and i was not too far off from what i believe is a mission guy. my 400's yesterday were really great for me being more of a miler than a sprinter. so that i was happy about. i was only disappointed in my mile. five months of training and it only payed off in the sprinting section. Kateall im going for under 4:55. I just have to!

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?"

 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
