grove city YMCA

Today my friend and I drove up to the YMCA in Grove City to do our service learning for fitness ed class. We got there around 2:15 and I wasnt sure what to expect. I wasnt sure what we were going to be doin i just knew it was helping kids out at the Y. About 50 kids showed up and it was an after school program for kids to be active until their parents picked them up around 5. We played flag football and basketball with them. We helped the counselor control them and get them rounded up because some kids from Grove City high school were going to talk to them about bullying. It ended up being a great experience because i had a lot of fun playing basketball with some 5th and 6th graders. I enjoyed practicing working with kids like a phys ed teacher would. I used to not want to teach in the elementary school but after this i want to. I saw how pumped they were to play football and basketball and you dont get that in secondary schools.

scheduling

I dont know if its just me but scheduling always sucks. Every time i make out a nice schedule for the next semester of all the classes i want and then they fill up so fast. Monday i looked at Math as a liberal art and half the seats were already filled. I need a math to get into the college of ed next semester and now im going to have to take a higher level math because i need one. Im also going to have classes through out the day instead of all at once. I might have class at 8 then not again until 10. I hope some of the classes i want will still be available because i dont want to end up taking only 12 credits.

Pirates Game

Right now i am watching the home opener of the Pittsburgh Pirates. They were down 7 to nothing going into the 5th inning. They scored 3 runs and gave up another run to make it 8 to 5. in the 6th inning the pirates scored 2 more runs to make it 8 to 6. If the Pirates can pull out a win they will be 4 and 3 on the season and please a sell out crowd at PNC Park. Im definately going to watch the rest of this game while i eat because i love the Pirates and i hope they win.

The Final 4

This Saturday college basketball will play the Final Four in San Antonio, Texas. Kansas, North Carolina, Memphis and UCLA will all play for a chance to compete in the National Championship game on April 8th. Kansas beat Davidson in the elite eight to make it to the Final Four. North Carolina beat Louisville. Memphis beat Texas and UCLA beat Xavier. On ESPN.com's national polls the majority of people have North Carolina and UCLA playing in the Championship game. Personally i think Kansas will beat UNC and UCLA will beat Memphis but thats just me. If UCLA wins the championship game it will be about their 12th or 13th national championship ever. If your not doing anything saturday night i suggest you turn on CBS around 6 to watch two great games that will be played
