Bye Bye Bin Ladin

Last night around 11 o'clock at night, President Barack Obama announced that the body of Osama Bin Ladin is in the hands of Americans.  Apparently yesterday, United States forces stormed the hotel in which Bin Ladin had been staying in, and under harsh condition had to take him out.  The took custody of his body and later did DNA testing to confirm that it was truly his body.

This is a huge deal, especially in the hearts of Americans, as well as many of countries.  Cheers by the white house gate, had gathered a crowd to celebrate the death of Bin Ladin.  The Face of terror has been taken down by the Americans.  I would say that 911 victims are the most grateful because they have receive a sense of closure. 

However, as we Americans cheer today for the death of Bin Ladin, we will have to continue and keep struggling for the fight against terrorism.  The fight is far from over, and this could very well be only the beginning.  With Bin Ladin gone, it is thought that Al Qaeda is separated.  However, the threat is still out there and recruits are still coming in for Al Qaeda.

We can only hope that the United States and all of our allies, can take this advantage of Bin Ladin's death; and continue to pursue Al Qaeda, as well as any other terrorist organizations.

Blogs, Blogs, Blogs

      When i think of blogs, i only seem to think of someone (like me) ranting on about whatever they want to talk about.  This is great, because it allows everyone to announce their ideas and morals.  The only problem is that those are the only kind of blogs i've ever seen.
     
      I wish that i could see, not only someone ranting on about a subject, but several people discussing an issue.  I love to see debates, and arguements.  Hopefully through these arguements, people will not get overly offended and make a huge deal out of it; but I just truly want to be able to comment more than "great blog, you really did good."

      I'm kind of getting bored with having the feeling that what i'm writing wont really do anything.  Yet, from debating blogs, everyone would join in and people's ideas would clash with each other.  I'm am going to try and make some of these blogs to hopefully spark peoples interests and bring life back into blogging!

My top 5

My top 5 drinks that I like...

1!  Tea- whether it's green, white, or even jasmine, tea is definitly one of my favorite drinks.  When it's icy cold it has just a super awesome taste, and when it's hot it just warms up your whole body with a natural type of feel.

2@ Juice- juice is usually good for you, and most of the time it tastes great to.  However, i could live with out cranberry juice.

3# aide's- poweraide, or gatoraide, I really like sports drinks too.  I know the are not very good for you at all, with there tons of sugar, as well as calories.  Yet, the electrolytes inside of them supposedly helps your body recouperate which everyone could use.

4$ Milk- I like milk out of a glass or out of a cereal bowl.  Milk is the first drink u have when your born and has plenty of calcium and things to make you grow.  chocolate, white, skim, or 2% i like them all.

5% Water- Usually water isn't the most likely choice for people, because it just has no taste; But when your done working out and your mouth is dry, begging for moisture.  I always run for the water, because it tastes so deliscious at that point.  It just seems to quinch your thirst so perfectly.

Those drinks are my top 5 picks..

Spring Break

      Spring break came so fast, yet left  just as quickly.  I dont think that one week is enough to actually feel like a break.  For at least half of the spring break, i was working so it felt as if the whole day got taken away from me.  I truly only had 1 or 2 days truly for myself, and that just feels more like a weekend.

      But maybe a week is a perfect amount of time; because then you dont get too lazy.  Yet, you still get a little break. I just think that the hardest part of the spring break is having to come back to school and start learning again.

      So far coming back to school has seemed dreadful and i just want to go home ASAP everyday.  This nice weather is just pulling me away from all of the work i need to do.  Hopefully i don't get too distracted and start failing out!! :0

Cage The elephant concert!!

      On Feb. 24 im going to the cage the elephant concert at the pageant in st. louis.  They are a band who i've only noticed a few years ago.  They have grown super popular since i heard there first hit, "aint no rest for the wicked"

      For any of you who like alternative rock music, you should check them out.  I highly recommend them.  This will be my first time to the pageant so im pretty psyched!  Also one of my favorite bands will be performing there which makes it all even better.  I have heard that cage the elephant isn't as good performing live, but I think i'll be the judge of that.
     

PARKOUR!

Lately i have been training with some friends.  We have just been running around and trying get in shape for some parkour.  For those who dont know what that is just check this out...

      the definition of parkour is a utilitarian discipline based upon the successful, swift and energy-efficient traversing of one's surrounding environment via the practical application of techniques, based around the concept of self-preservation and the ability to help others.
      I believe that this originated from some type of french army training.  I suppose that it was used to get to a tough place to be able to help a person out.  I am really not that sure, but i do know that parkour(free running) is pretty sweet and i am determined to learn it.
      So far the only things i can do is jump from one little post to another but im learning everyday.  hopefully one day i will be as good as those in the video.
