The "GREAT" Dinner Party

I'm hosting a dinner party, this would be a first...but,
I'd only serve pasta and homemade pizza, not to mention orange juice.
Mike McNally would be the appetizing appetizer (no pun intended)
A dinner party isn't a party without some guests, so let's make a list...

Guest 1) Matt Dean- Is there ever a party without him? Nah I didn't think so either.

2) Charley Harper (Sheen)- A stud, an idol and the comedic personality my party would be lacking without.

3) Carlo Colaiacovo- Toronto born boy, on my St. Louis Blues; try saying his name 5 times in a row... literaly try it. Would be an entertaining aspect to the dinner table.

4) Jay Gatz- Guy chucks dominant parties, he'd know how to get it done.

5) Guy from "Ownage Pranks"- His prank phone calls are legendary and I laugh harder every time I listen to them online. I'd invite him for the single reason that I finally get to meet him.

6) Jason Patel- Get domed.

7) Sean Avery- If you don't know him, you're missing out. His entertaining, yet cocky actions on the ice would be perfect if he were to do the same at dinner. He's hated around the NHL and potentially the world. I don't hate him... and you won't either.

8) Flo Rida- I respect what you do, and perhaps I'll be lucky enough to win a trip with you sitting at my table like T-Pain, who I'm not as fond of..

9) Cap'N Crunch- Not only will I be serving his amazing cereal for dessert, I will be serving him.

10) My Mom- I am way too attached to her delicious cooking. Any dinner without her just seems awkward. I wouldn't have to wipe my own face, or make any effort putting food into my mouth... we'll see.

Excellent <3

A Curse or a Gift?

I'm assigned a super power, somewhat like the one possessed by Joe Bower.
It's not red hair and it's not like the powers Superman and Batman bare.
I can see into the future... lucky me?
This isn't ALWAYS the case... as you're about to see.

The future can't be changed... shut up Davin.
Who really wants to know when they or a loved one is going to die?
You get rid of these thoughts when you decide to get high.
If I really had this power, I would have ditched the hypocrites a long time ago,
time wouldn't have been wasted with them... fo sho.
Surprises would be ruined, Christmas and Birthdays wouldn't be the same,
You find out you're really not getting that new laptop... what a shame.

Being able to tell the world what is going to happen would be pretty cool,
there really wouldn't be a point to go to school.
My brain would contain more knowledge than anyone,
and trust me, no one would want that... done

The Future Starts Toda---... In September... Well Not Really

The first seventeen years... consisted of sleep, family, school, friends and sleep. Fortunately, I wouldn't have a future in my mind if it wasn't for the commencement of my baseball career. If I was a top student, my future wouldn't be so dependant on one sport... oh well.
The transition from soccer......................... to baseball solidified my vengance to become a man ;) From the little league twelve year old all star team to the eighteen year old elite team, my baseball career has excelled, excelled to a point where I might end up in the United States next year, if not certianly the year after.

It's tough to leave the family, and of course the friends. The Cogeco Cable sports package will deeply be missed. I'm able to watch any game I want, anytime I want. Can anything honestly beat that? No, I didn't think so either.

Unnecessary

I thought coming back to school today was unnecessary enough, and detention for nothing seems pretty unnecessary... but whatever. This so called "break" began with a 7: 30 wake up and four straight days with Stanley at Road Worthy Driving School. Not like I'm a perfect driver, or know how to drive at all... but it was pretty unnecessary to learn that you shouldn't be driving 61 on a 60. Well, I somehow passed so no more of that crap. Random hangouts here and there make up the remainder of the "break". Joe Bower decides to assign a project due the second day back... unnecessary? Yeah I think so too. Finally, spotting Davin Thornborrow through a full crowd at the movies the final Saturday of the break, made me understand the true meaning of the term "unnecessary". I see him enough in EWC 4U day in, day out. Soooo unnecessary.

St. Louis Blues, 8th place?
Playoffs?
Dean?
Mhm

The Encounter

It was just another typical day in my life, not much to look forward to as always. Maybe I should actually start "looking forward" rather than down at my feet when walking the hechtic, overcrowded streets of Stoney Creek... I was overly focused on my new, three hundred dollar black Dewayne Wade shoes, with appealing white and gold fabric laces. I then thought to myslef, "Who am I really kidding? Why am I wearing these?" I will never become a basketball player, Plaxico Burress has a better shot than I do. I made the next right onto "Mattdean" street and wanted to find the nearest shoe store to re-gain an understanding of who I really am. Still dazed into the world of Wade, I hit what appeared to be a brick wall. I fell right on my bum, thus falling right out of my shoes, literally. Before I built up any strength to put them back on, a hand then reached down to my aid. Still humiliated, I grabbed this random hand and made my way back to my cold, shivering feet. "I'm so sorry kid, gotta keep your head up next time" the voice proclaimed. "Aaah it's fine, maybe if you weren't so fat I could have avoided you" I responded. As I looked up, I grinned a highly sarcastic grin, until I reached his face. It was ex New York Giant Michael Strahan, my idol. "You really got a mouth eh kid?" Strahan asked. I became speechless as I admired the huge gap between his teeth. "Yes Sir, I unfortunately do.. may I please have your autograph?" I finally asked. As I scuffled through my bag, I heard his size 193 shoes march away, without giving me an answer. My feet still wet, soon became my face. There he goes, my idol, Mr. Fox NFL Sunday himself. I put my head down once more, but this time I had to look at my new brown socks. I continued down Mattdean street, tears rushing down my face, hopefully able to find some new shoes. At this point the shoes meant nothing to me though, I finally met Michael Strahan... and all I can see are two Dewanye Wade shoes stuffed in his back pocket, very similar to the ones i had just forgotte--... wait a minute.

Some of Lawrence's Likes, Besides Mike

Hardball- When G-Baby says his famous line of "That's some mother ****** bull****", he's definitely not talking about the movie he's acting in. Unlike most movies where Keanu Reeves is the star, Hardball is extremely touching and entertaining. Not only is Conor O'Neill coaching a boys baseball team (the very same sport I play..), the viewer notices a remarkable change from the gambling, selfish and arrogant O'Neill. He delivers a wonderful speech at G-Baby's funeral at the end of the movie, where we discover G-Baby himself delivered the game winning hit in the championship game. I am probably slightly more emotional than the next guy.. but I feel confident saying I wasn't the only one who shed a tear by the end of the film.

Arthur's Perfect Christmas <3- Perfect, enough said. This four-eyed, annoying aardvark, makes my Christmas ALMOST as spectacular as his. I don't need to explain the t.v show... if you haven't seen it, I'm surprised you're still living today. Like any normal episode, Arthur is doing something no other animal in the world can ever do. He buys his mother an extra special Christmas present (they're never satisfied), but the real problem occurs once he breaks the gift Christmas morning. With help from some random uncle who thinks he's an important character to this legendary show, Arthur is able to give a present to his mother in time, much to her satisfaction. I watch this one hour Christmas episode on TVO every year, and it just makes me happier than I've previously known possible.



Zelda and the Ocarina of Time- Who knew the one day I actually wanted my neighbour Dennis to come over, would end up being one of the most fulfilling days of my life. He brought over this random Nintendo 64 game, "Zelda and the Ocarina of Time". The very second he placed the oddly, rectangular shaped object into the system, I was hooked. It took me about a year to master this game, possibly the most productive year of my life. This game brought me tons of frustration, but I believe it helped me think "outside the box" and helped develop other skills that I continue to use today.



Rough Waters- Here it is again, Rough Waters. Scott and Gregg lose their parents to a tragic car accident. They're sent to live with a random uncle Rocky, whom they have never met. He ends up being the perfect fatherly figure for them, unlike Michael Phelps. By the end of the novel, Scott meets a pretty, that's right, a pretty girl (no need to be pessimistic) named Summer as Gregg finally overcomes his hatred for Rocky. The boys live a more fulfilling life than they had before at home. This novel made me realize some books are actually decent, and one can overcome ANYTHING.


MarioKart Super Circuit- Well what can I say? Mario has influenced me in every possible way. As you all know, this game consists of Mario characters (Toad!) who compete in intense races and time trials. This game is currently located above my toilet, where it helps and of course entertains me everyday. To be honest, I just set a record lap time for Rainbow Road approximately 10 minutes ago. (14.76 seconds) Lolumad?
