Tina's Birthday Party

    Before I start this blog I want to wish Tina a happy happy birthday, as today is her real birthday. If you want to check out her blog click here.


     So I started the day off discussing who's taking us to Tina's house and who's bring us back. My mom took David and I, and Megan's Dad brought back Megan, Hannah, and I. We got there and saw everyone outside doing something. A fireplace was lit, there was a ping pong table in the middle, a skateboard, two scooters, and a pogo stick laying around somewhere. I started off helping Megan to learn how to skateboard, and by the end of the night she got it down on a very bad board. Then I played ping pong a lot with David, Maryam, and Tina a little too. Later on we had pizza which reminded me of Chuck E. Cheese for some reason. After that we had cake, which was pretty good. We couldn't decide on what movie to watch at all or else we would've sat down and watched a movie. Everyone just went back outside to continue what we were doing. Overall, I had a blast. Thank you for reading my blog, I hope you enjoyed!

Kobe Bryant

     Kobe Bryant is an athlete that everyone knows about. In this blog I'd like to honor him because this season is his last season in the NBA.


     Kobe Bryant is a legendary professional basketball player that plays for the Lakers but is unfortunately retiring. He played for the Lakers for his whole career and won 5 championships and was an All-Star 18 times. This season allowed Kobe to break the NBA record of most seasons with the same team. Kobe got into the NBA directly out of high school, without even going to college. In 2000, 2001, and 2002, Kobe won championships consecutively when Phil Jackson was coaching. Phil Jackson used a strategy to allow Kobe to become one of the best players in the NBA. Kobe had an unbelievable game on January 22, 2006 when he scored 81 points against the Raptors. 


     Ever since I was a baby, I've looked up to Kobe. He is, was, and will forever be my favorite player of all time. I'm sad to see him retire but all good things come to an end. Thanks for reading my blog, I hope you enjoyed!

My Type Of Music

     My favorite genre of music is EDM. EDM is short for electronic dance music, which is not very common in people's taste of music. You have probably heard it somewhere, and it's the type of music that is played at nightclubs and festivals such as "Ultra Music Festival." At this festival, many DJs (or artists) join each other and play music for a long time. My favorite artist is also included in this and his name is Martin Garrix. He is mainly my favorite DJ for many reason, mainly because of his talent in making music, obviously. Martin is Dutch and is already very famous at the age of 19. Also, fun fact, he shares the same birthday as me.


     You might've heard some of Martin's music before, as his song "Animals" is very popular and well-known. To be honest, I don't really like this song but he made a new version that is great. At the age of 17, "Animals" made Martin the youngest DJ to ever reach number one on Beatport.
     Before I end this blog, I want to thank Megan for giving me the idea of writing about this. If you want to check out her blog click here. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed this blog!

Odell Beckham Jr.

     Odell Beckham Jr is my favorite NFL player. He plays as a wide receiver for the New York Giants and is overall one of the best wide receivers in the league. Odell is very young, at the age of 23 and graduated from LSU university, which is where many famous NFL players come from. One reason why Odell is one of my favorite players is because of his crazy catches.
     
     The picture above is from his most famous one handed catch. A lot of people know Odell because of this play that he made. Another reason why Odell is my favorite player is because he is very young  and already very famous and in the top wide receivers in the NFL. Next year I want to play wide receiver for the Taft JV football team and I hope I can be like Odell when I'm playing. Lastly, Odell has awesome hair that looks like ramen noodles to me and my friends. Thanks for reading!
