Wow, this place is dead.
Might as well give an update on my life. I left because interest in LOTHT was gone. I wasn't the only one that thought of that.
I just started Summer Break today, and I'm starting to plan out my future colleges, I took the ACT in April and I'm still awaiting my scores.
Junior year went well, I think my GPA was somewhere between 3.5 & 3.75 so I'm hoping that this could be key to the future.
I got a part time job at Culver's and I might be leaving it for a part time job at a golf course near Duluth. My family rented a cabin there for the summer.
I finally got a Wii U and Mario Kart 8, so PP319, bring it on.
One last thing, you probably know my love of sports, it had its ups and downs. One down is that the Blackhawks are probably going to win the cup (
), the choke job by the Packers in Seattle, & how my Brewers are starting. But the ups were huge, the Bucks are finally starting to be relevant, the Wild had a great season, & the Badgers made it all the way to the championship. But none were as important as what I'm about to say. You all remember Victor Espinoza, the jockey of California Chrome and how close he was last year to the Triple Crown? Well, he teamed up with Bob Baffert (who has seen disappointment 3 times with Silver Charm, Real Quiet, & War Emblem (with Espinoza), and cursed owner Ahmed Zayat, and they ran a horse named American Pharoah (no kidding, that's actually how it's spelled, Zayat accidentally mispelled the name when he submitted it!) and he was a star from birth. He started in California and won the FrontRunner, but an injury shelfed him until March. He moved to Arkansas and won the Rebel & Arkansas Derby at Oaklawn. People saw this as the next Smarty Jones, but even better. He later won the Kentucky Derby, holding off Firing Line & another Baffert trainee, Dortmund. There was still doubts when he won, as he was whipped 32 times by Victor. Those doubts were quickly erased when American Pharoah wired the Preakness in style in the slop at Pimpico. After that race, people were very confident that he would win the Triple Crown, which hasn't been won in 37 years because of the 1 1/2 mile Belmont. He had to deal with 5 horses that skipped the Preakness that were fully rested, a good closer as a runner up in the Preakness, and a horse that went the Coward's Way Out if you know what I mean *wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge*.
Today, we found out that American Pharoah is Horse Racing's Messiah as he held off Frosted, wired the Belmont, winning the Triple Crown. There is a party everywhere in America, even as the Lightning fans watched outside before Game 2. My horse track nearby (in which my father and I made some bets, including a souvenir win ticket and the winning trifecta ($2 bet turned into $140!
). It was the second greatest day in my life (behind the Packers Super Bowl XLV win)
So yeah, that's my life since I left.
