My creative inspiration comes by way of T-shirt designs. I’m not saying that I’m fashionable (I’m far from it actually), but I like T-shirts. They’re simple, comfortable, and they go with just about everything. But, I think it’s hard to find cool, one of a kind T-shirts.... Read more »

Whether it’s catching, kicking, throwing, running, hitting, shooting, or putting. Whether it’s with a spherical or oval shaped ball, a puck, a baton, gloves or a birdie, on a field, track or court, it’s a sport, and it’s what makes the world go ‘round.   Sports are local, domestic, and... Read more »

Have you ever wondered why it seems like so many people prefer Target over Walmart? Because I have, and that is exactly what prompted me to write this. Let’s compare: They were both established in 1962. Walmart is the largest retailer in the world with 8,970 locations world wide; Target has 1,750 locations.... Read more »

It’s that time of year again! Daylight savings. Some love it, others dread it, but I think we can all agree that the extra hour of sleep is much appreciated. I’m not a big fan of going to school in the bright of day. Or coming home and it being dark in an hour. But it’s still a heck... Read more »

In my opinion, our school computers are here as a tool; to educate ourselves and others while exploring new knowledge.

I don’t know how many times I’ve had In-n-Out Burger. Since I’m from California, where there are more than 200 locations, it was pretty normal to have it a couple times a month. And, may I say, I loved it. Now that Texas is jumping on the In-N-Out bandwagon I’m beyond happy; no more four hour... Read more »

You either love it or you hate it. You can’t escape it. It is living, breathing, proof that the best things in this world are the worst for you. Where do I start? The cost?
