Today I asked my teacher what our topic is today. He said " Blog about where you want to live. " That is by far the best topic he could have chosen. Where I want to live is pretty easy to find out if you know me. I would like to be a dentist when I get older. My uncle is a dentist also. He is a dentist in Burlington, North Carolina. If you can guess yet, I'm going to live in North Carolina. I would like to go to school at UNC but there out of state tuition is very high. As soon as I graduate college my uncle will be about ready to retire, and I can take over his position. His dentistry business in called Family Dentistry. He has offered me to stay at his house when I graduate until I find a house up there.
Living in North Carolina is a dream of mine since I have been a kid. I always look forward to seeing all of my dad's side of the family in Blanch, North Carolina. My grandparents have lived there their whole life. They lived on a road when they still had numbers for road names. They got to name that road, so they named it Dailey Rd. The Dailey Rd stretches about two miles long and at the end of it lives my grandparents and on the other side the road lives my other uncle and down the road about 600yards is my uncle's log cabin. He told me when I start working up there that I can buy the cabin from him. The cabin has over 300 acres of land with a food plot for turkey hunting. That's right up my ally because every animal I've killed, just about, has been up there.
This summer, I'm looking forward to visiting my family up there. I love waking up really early and going hunting because their land out there is stacked full of coons, deer, and turkeys. No one hunts up there except for my cousin Austin and he only coon hunts. I would love to live in North Carolina because of all the offers and great things I have up there

The Golf Trip
This past Saturday Cameron, Ava, and I went golfing at Crystal Lakes golf course. We were supposed to be there at 3:00pm and of course, I was late. I said that I was fashionable late but really I had to go by my dad's work to drop off tables that we used at our yard sale earlier that day. I went on the Crystal Lakes website to see how much it is to golf, it was $14.00. Since Cameron knew a lot of people at the golf course, it was only $3.00 for all 3 of us to play 9 holes.
We started out with a bucket of balls on the driving range. Cameron, as usual, hit every ball about 100yards, but then there was me. I hit a total of 3 balls on the range. The first one was shanked and the other 2 were maybe hit 10yards. Even Ava did better than I did. I asked Cameron why I sucked so bad and he said it was because I'm used to swinging a baseball bat. I asked him how that would affect my swing and he said your swinging high, like a bat, and picking up my shoulders and head when I swung. The second hole was awful, so when Cameron wasn't looking, I threw my ball on the green and he told me that was my best hit of the day, by me.
Walking to the sixth hole I found someone golf ball. I yelled at Cameron to tell him. Right when I said that I heard a big crash and thud. Cameron fell over a fallen tree branch with his golf bag on his back. It was the funniest thing in the world. After about 5 minutes of rolling on the floor laughing, Ava and I pulled ourselves together. We headed for the water because we were thirsty. Ava and I raced to it as a competition. From there on out when we saw water, we fought with it by throwing it on each other. Even though we were supposed to take it seriously, we had a lot of fun.

My best role model
One of my favorite role models is Demarco Murray. I look up to him so much. Demarco plays on the Philadelphia Eagles as a running back. He used to play for the Dallas Cowboys, and he was one of the best back then. The reason he isn't as good now as he was back then is because he works better with an I formation instead of T formation. Demarco Murray is one of my favorite role models because we share the same position in football and he never gives up on plays.
Like I said in the first paragraph, Demarco and I are both running backs. The only difference is that he plays for the National Football League and I play for SCISA. I admire him as a running back because his style and integrity. He never gives up on plays. If he can't get through the hole that the linemen make, he will make his own hole. I've seen him go completely around the linemen and score because he couldn't get through the hole.
These are the reason that I admire Demarco Murray. In my mind, he is very admirable and honorable. He never gives up!

Josh Norman's $24k deal
If you are a sports fanatic, you know that Josh Norman is a great cornerback for the Carolina Panthers. This past year, the Panthers made it to the Superbowl but lost to the Denver Broncos. After that season he left the Panthers for the Washington Redskins. Duke Ihenacho is apart of the redskins, he is number 24. Unfortunately, Josh Norman was number 24 for Carolina and he wanted to keep that number with the Redskins.
Josh Norman has always been number 24. He started asking if their was anything he could do to get his number from Duke Ihenacho. For a little bit, Duke said that he was keeping his number and not trading. Josh got the idea to pay for his jersey. Coincidentally, he paid Duke twenty four thousand dollars just so he could play as number 24. Duke is now number 29 and twenty four thousand dollars wealthier.
Over my 14 years of watching NFL football, I have seen many stupid trades and deals. This deal is by far one of the stupidest, in my opinion. They both are now on the same page with the number deal and plan on playing side by side in the upcoming year

The Lokai bracelets
One of the most popular trends nowadays are the new Lokai bracelets. Lokai bracelets come in all sorts of colors including clear, green, pink, blue, purple, red, orange, camo, and rainbow. These bracelets have 1 white circle and 1 black circle. The white one has snow from Mount Everest for the highs in your life. The black one has mud from the Dead Sea for your lows in your life. There has been stories and videos of people cutting them open and there being nothing inside. Some people said that they got the knock off brand of it and others say it was and it's a fake.
I decided to test this theory the other day. I bought a blue one for $20 plus tax the other day. I got home set up a camera and cut it open. I cut the white one first. There was nothing in that one. I thought that it might have evaporated. Then I cut the black one. There was nothing in that one either. I was so disappointed. Maybe the one I bought was a knock off.
These bracelets are a huge disappointment. I do have to admit, they do look very neat and I will get another one, but they actually have absolutely nothing in them. So don't invest in one if you want it for they stuff inside. Buy strictly for looks if anything.

NCAA best running back Dalvin Cook (FSU)
In the up coming season of college football, Florida State University has a returning junior Dalvin Cook. Dalvin Cook is one of the best running backs in NCAA history. Last year he was eligible for the Heisman Trophy as a junior. Everyone thought that he was going to go to the NFL but changed his mind and decided to finish college as a Seminole.
Dalvin Cook has an amazing running game. Last year he rushed a total of 1691 yards with an average run of 7.4 yards a play. He also had 19 rushing touchdowns with 1 receiving touchdown. When he was a sophomore he rushed 1008 yards total with an average of 5.9 yards a play. That year he had 8 rushing touchdowns with no receiving touchdowns. A total of his two years playing for Florida State, he has 2169 rushing yards and 28 touchdowns. Over the time of two years he has scored 168 points.
Florida State University has a lot of surprises in the upcoming season like looking to recruit some more receivers and looking for a good running and passing quarter back. This upcoming year will be Dalvin Cook's last year at FSU but I am more than 100% sure that he is going to the NFL because he almost went this past year. If he stays on the right track and doesn't do anything he will probably get a first round draft if he goes to the NFL. Hopefully he does go and I plan on seeing him there but for now, he is the best running back in the NCAA

The ups and downs of having curly hair
If you know me, you know that I have really curly hair. Sometimes, it can get on your nerves but other times you wish it was curlier. Curly hair is sort of rare to be born with. Most people are born with straight hair then grow curly hair. Studies show that only 15% of the population of America have curly hair. I just so happen to be one.
Having curly hair has many advantages. One advantage is at any point in the day, if you choose, you can poof your hair up and get an afro. Another advantage of having curly hair is it feels really good. At most schools, your hair can't go down past your eye brows. Well, with curly hair you can have it as long as you want it and it will never pass your eye brows, if anything, it will just get taller. Curly hair is very entertaining. When you wake up, you can design it however you wish.
If there is anything great, it has to have its down falls. A bad thing about having curly hair and you want to comb it into a part or something, it takes about 20 minutes to get it ready to brush it. It is awful trying to get ready in a rush. Another downfall curly hair takes so long to dry. You can use a towel, hair dryer or anything, curly hair takes the longest time to dry. Even though curly hair is annoying sometimes, most people love and look good wearing it.
