“The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.”  – Albert Einsein.  This is my favorite quote because it tells you that you need to be creative and have an imagination to really be intelligent.  You need to think outside of the box.

I think a hero is someone who fights for what they believe in or want and they never give up.  Someone just like that today is Lance Armstrong.  He was diagnosed with cancer while being the best cylclist in the world.  He had to believe in himself and fight through it.

My class was recently asked by our teacher to create a post on five rights a student should have.  The first right is being able to chew gum in class.  The second right is to go on the computer whenever we want.  The third right is to get lunch for free everyday. The fourth right is to sit wherever we want at lunch everyday.  The last right I think a student should have is to be allowed to never bring in homework.  That would be pretty cool.

I can not live without my bike.  I really like it because I ride it all over town. My bike is a Free Agent Trail Bandit.  It is made for riding in trails which I do all the time.  Its also made for street and park so you can also ride it on streets and stuff.

I play two sports.  They are hockey and baseball. I love both of them. I play baseball for the Yalesville Lightning right now.  It is a fall ball team. I aslo play hockey for the East Haven Yellowjackets. We are very good.  I play hockey in the fall and winter.  Some years I play all year round.  I play baseball in the spring and summer.  My favorite sport is hockey.
