Narative

The new paper is very hard. I am having a hard time finding out which memory I want to use that I can actually have research with.

Own research

My team research is going fairly well I am finding that not as many of my teammates have superstitions as I thought.

Own research

I have fianlly gotten started on researching my teammates superstitions.

The Reading

I remember how the SAT was thought to be something that you sould only do if you were smart. But, then Stanley Kaplan thought about how the SAT could be coachable and that was very interesting to me.

Buddies

I am finding that some of my friends have things in their routines and superstitions in their lives that have nothing to do with baseball at all.

PAPER

My paper is coming along slowly but, surely. I am interviewing a few teammates about their superstitions and/or rituals before, during, and after games.

Second Paper

My second paper is going to be superstitions in baseball continued.

My paper is still in a sorta stalemate due to not very much research about the topic.

.....

Just throwing in a random post to say hello.....

The hardest part was finding different information on the internet i kept finding basically the same informations. The sites wanted to keep talking about the same people over and over.

I learned that there are a lot more ways that superstitions affect and have affected our lives for longer than i ever thought.

How my paper is going

My paper is actually beginning to get harder and harder to move along. This is because it is getting harder to find more information that doesn't just repeat what i have already said.

About Me

My name is Bryan Smith. However, I do go by Goose. It is a nickname given to me from a friend of mine in high school and has stuck with me by going through college with teammates of mine. A few things interesting about me are that i play baseball at the school and am a pitcher. I am hoping and have the chance to get drafted this year and go play professional baseball. This has been a passion of mine since i was about 2 years old. I also have only lived in Utah since my senior year of high school. I moved from northern California august of 2003 and have lived here ever since. I transfered from the College of Eastern Utah after getting my Associates Degree. During high school i never really liked english it was always a harder subject for me to comprehend. However, my sophmore year of college i had teacher whom i liked and learned to appreciate writing a bit more, even thoughit is still not one of my favorite things. Some topics i would like to write about are steriods, HGH, capital punishment, the psychology of stress, and any thing to do with war type subjects.

The Start

This is just to put something on here
