Tim Tebow

So I figured I'd do something different. Instead of talking about me and my life and boring everyone, I'd figure I'd tell you all about my favorite football player. TIM TEBOW! I like Tim Tebow alot and as I wrote above he is my favorite football player. And it has nothing to do with him being famous and making alot of money. Although, if he wasn't famous, I doubt I would of heard of him. But anyway..the reason I like him is because he is a nice guy. I never met him, but he seems nice and caring. Also he is a Christian. He stands up for what he believes in. He is strong in his faith. He isn't afraid to share his faith and wear Bible Verses on patches under his eyes or pray with other teammates. Not afraid to thank God during games and is always praising God. Giving him all the glory. And he is always helping people out and helps out charities and has his own foundation to help others out. And I am a Christian too, but I want to become a better Christian like Tim. Be strong in my faith. And as I mentioned, I never met Tim, but I really hope I get to meet him one day. :) Now for alittle info on Tim. He has his own book. It's called "Through My Eyes: A Quarterback's Journey". It is a really good book. Also very inspiring. I recommend it to everyone to read. It goes through his life from when he was born up to being drafted to Denver. It also has lots of Bible Verses throughout the book and also has some pictures of him from when he was born and up to being a Bronco. I won't write the whole story, but just some important facts on Tim. :) So don't ruin the story for anyone. Timothy Richard Tebow was born on August 14, 1987 while his parents and siblings were on a mission trip to the Philippines.(Makati City). He has 2 sisters and 2 brothers. He is the youngest child. Tim was in the Philippines until he was 3. Then he along with is family moved back to the U.S. and lived on a farm in Florida. He grew up playing every sport imaginable. Basketball, baseball, football, ect. He was homeschooled instead of going to a public school. And growing up, he learned the Bible
and Bible Verses. And they put the verses into songs and hymns. Tim has dyslexia, just like his dad and his one brother. But it didn't stop him from being a su ccess with school, sports or anything else. Tim played for the baseball team Tidal Wave that traveled over Florida for different games. He first played football he played at the Lakeshore Athletic Association. Then played football for Nease High School. After that he was accpeted to many colleges, but ended up accpeting and going to the University of Florida.(Florida Gators). He made them 2006 National Champions. And became Heisman Trophy in 2007. And National Champions in 2008. Also throughout his college years he went on mission trips to the Philippines. And helping out at his Uncle Dick's orphanage. Despite alot of injuries, the flu, and a concussion, he remained strong and never gave up on playing football. Also in college he set up fundraisers and donated money to charities near them and ones that people knew and people had some kind of ties to it. I could go on, but I won't. You will just have to read the book. But in 2010, he was drafted to Denver Broncos. Then he set up his foundation(Tim Tebow Foundation). It's a charity that helps people out. So yeah, as I mentioned above, I never met him and really hope to one day, he is a really great and nice guy. And he does whatever he can to help people out and cares for them so much. So this is why I like him. :) And now(2012) he was traded to the New York Jets. So he will now be playing for them. But if you want to know more about Tim..read his book. Also like me, you can buy merchandise to help out his foundation. For more info, comment me. GO TIM!! I will love you always and support you always!!! GO NY JETS!!!

Sunday...

Today I was off and it was all rainy. It figures. Although, I really can't complain too much. 1. I had how many nice days to enjoy the weather. Most days were so beautiful. And 2. We need the rain. So yea..and also I much rather have rain then snow. So anyway.. I am thinking, what to do on a rainy day. Well it didn't start out rainy. I had Jasper out for alittle, read my Bible, Bible Verses, and Daily Devotional. Also some of Mockingjay. Then later a friend of mine and her daughter and I went to the movies. I was planning on going to the movies, but didn't really want to go by myself. So I asked and they said they'd go to the movies with me. :) I was so happy. So we went and saw The Hunger Games. It was really good. I liked it. Then we went out to eat at Damon's bar and Grill. Yum! I got a cheeseburger and fries. Then had gotten home and had Jasper out. Then worked on a few things. And now watching the Hallmark Movie-Firelight. It's pretty good so far. So even though it was all rainy all day, I had a good day off.

Catching Up...

So I really haven't written in awhile, but as always, not really much has been going on. Nothing too exciting. Work is going good. Some days we are busy and others we are so slow and bored. Being supervisor is still going good. Still need to go a little slower and be patient. No mistakes, but I still feel as if I could stand to slow down alittle and be more patient. But other than that, work is great. And I am liking being supervisor. Other than working..having Jasper out, reading my Bible, Daily Devotional, Bible verses online and my books. Which I am now reading Mockingjay. The 3rd and final book in The Hunger Games Triology. Also shoot hoops here and there. Take occasional walks with my dad and Belle. Watch Tv, check out a few sites and really not too much else. I love Spring! Warm temperatures, no long sleeves or jackets, birds come home, trees start to bloom, but mostly because of the flowers. I love flowers. It's just too bad, they don't last longer. So I have been taking alot of pics of flowers too. Well, I will write about today in a new blog. :)

Books

Well since I last wrote, I finsished reading "Catching Fire". It's the 2nd book in the Hunger Games triology. It was pretty good. I enjoyed it. I also finished reading "Through My Eyes:A Quarterback's Journey". It was written by Tim Tebow. That was really good. And Tim Tebow is such a great guy. I never met him, but after reading his book, I can tell that he is. He is such an inspiration, a great role model. He is a Christian and lives out what he believes in. He's not afraid to share Bible Verses, or his faith. He's not afraid to stand up for what he believes in. Throughout his book he shares Bible Verses. Also throughout the book, it mostly talks about his life and how it was growing up. How sports were a major part in his life and also his religion was too. He wasnt scared to share his faith or his emotions. Also he cares alot for people and kids. Even started a foundation to help people out. I could go on, but I will let you find out for yourself when you read the book. But yea, overall Tim Tebow is an awesome guy and book is great and a must read. :)And I hope one day I can get to meet him.

Easter and more

So..it's been awhile again since I last wrote.  But as always..really not much has happened.  We will recap as much as I remember.  

We'll start with Easter.  Easter was good.  I did miss my sister not coming in.  It was weird for her not to be here.  Oh, well.  Traditions have to change sometime, I guess.  Right?  That's where new traditions come in.  I mean things change right?  And changes makes up grow and help us out to be better people and learn new things and make new memories.  Anyway..my Easter was good.  I ate alot!  Ham, mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing, and green beans.  Also some cake.  :)  It was shaped as a rabbit.  Most of the day, I read my book on Tim Tebow.  I also went for a walk with my brother and his gf.  We got to see the tulips and they were opened.  :)  
 Also besides being able to spend time with and loving my family on this holiday called Easter, which is great, isn't what Easter is all about.  It's just part of it.  And before people start to say they think they know it, they don't.  They think it's the candy, chicks, rabbits, egg hunts, and more.  Which I guess is part too, but I am talking about the bigger and best part why we celebrate Easter.  We celebrate it all because of one man.  My best friend. Jesus Christ.  He had come to earth as a baby and lived His life.  He taught many things to alot of people who would listen to Him.  The world was full of sin and we could not get to know God or even get into heaven because of all the sins.  So Jesus, who was sinless, did the most unselfish thing imaginable.  He died for our sins and rose back again on the third day so that we may be made clean and free of our sins and be able to live with Him in Heaven.  So He is the reason for Easter and why we celebrate Easter.  Thank You Jesus for dying for me so I may live with You in Heaven when I die.  Amen.

So other than Easter, not too much has happened.  Work is still going good.  I still need to learn to go a little slower.  I mean, I haven't been messing up too much, but still I need to slow down.  I mean, we close the mall at 9 and I am scheduled till 9:30, so there's no need to rush and get things messed up.  And it's not like I have much to do when I get home.  But yeah, work is going good.  I still like being a supervisor.  It was steady around the week of Easter, but not overly busy.  

I have been taking Jasper out alot.  He likes to be out and walk around.  Some days he likes to lay on the porch and sleep or sit on my lap.  Also  I have been reading my Bible Verses, Daily Devotional and Bible.  I am now reading 1 Corinthians in my Bible.  I finished reading "The Ghost and the Haunted Mansion".  It was pretty good.  I also read "The Hunger Games".  That was good.  Although, I don't really like..well should say didn't like how they made kids have to kill other kids.  But other than that it wasn't a bad book.  I am currently reading "Catching Fire" which is the 2nd book in the Hunger Games triology.  Also "Through My Eyes: A Quarterback's Story".  Or something close to it.  It's written by Tim Tebow.  It's good.  I also did some cleaning in my room.  Checked FB out.  Shot hoops with my brother a few days.  Went for some walks. 

Also celebrated my mom's birthday yesterday.  It was nice.  We got pizza from Papa John's and got a party cake.  Yum!! Gave my mom her presents.  She really liked them.  :)  

Today, I made some chocolate chip cookies.  Yum!! They were from a pack.  All I had to do was break them apart and put them on cookie sheets, then put in the oven and bake.  They were good.  :)   

Well guess that's all.  Have a good night everyone!!!

Last Few Days

So I haven't written in awhile.  But again, not much has happened.  Nothing too exciting. But let's recap on some things that has happened.  Well, what I can remember anyway.  I mailed some Easter cards out.  On April 2nd, my cat, Jasper turned 10 years old.  It's hard to believe 10 years have passed by already.  Wow..that's all I can say.  I got him some cans of cat food and treats.  :)  He loves the Wild West Crunchies.  

Work is going good.  Being supervisor is still good.  I just need to still slow down and pay closer attention to things.  Then I wouldn't mess up some of the stupidest things that shouldn't be messed up.  But oh well.  Least I catch things and don't have to call anyone.  :) So yeah, work has been going good.

Other than working, I have been taking Jasper outside.  We walk around the yard and driveway.  Also sit out front or back.  He loves to be out.  So do I, when it is so nice and warm.  I love the beautiful and warm weather. I also have been reading my Bible Verses online, Daily Devotional and my Bible.  I am now reading Romans in my Bible.  :)  I also finished reading The Ghost and the Haunted Mansion.  It was really good.  And I am now currently reading The Hunger Games.  It's good so far.  I also shot hoops with my brother a few days.  Gone for a few walks.  Checked out facebook and uploaded a bunch of new pictures.  Well I guess that's all that has happened lately.  My life can be pretty boring at times.  I have been watching TV here and there too.  I also watched The Adjustment Bureau.  It was a good movie overall.  So I guess that is all.

Hope everyone has a good night
