Cross Country

-
For 3 years of high school I was in cross country. Initially I disliked sports and the like, but once sophomore year came around I joined both swimming and cross country. It was a great choice because I got into shape relatively quickly, but sadly I had no time for anything outside of school. My time management was just as terrible then as it is now. I've never been good at managing my time. I ran nearly 2 hours every single day as practice, and as you would assume, all that running took a toll on my knees. Unfortunately towards the end of senior year I was forced to stop running and quit cross country because the pain was really bad. Ever since then I haven't really ran all that much and the pain has died down quite a bit. There are some days that are bad, but it's nothing a little aspirin won't fix. I kinda regret running so much, but in hindsight it was a great experience and I would do it all again.

Yes Theory

I have been a fan of Yes Theory for some time now. They are a group of guys from around the world that do things that are uncomfortable. In fact, their motto is "Seek Discomfort" and it is absolutely brilliant. It has actually helped me with my social anxiety to an extent. Granted I still can't go up to a random person and spark up a conversation. Baby steps right? Anyways, so Yes Theory is a pretty popular YouTube channel that has gained a lot of ground in the past few months. In the video below, they ask totally random people if they want to go skydiving with them. Some people actually say Yes and go on an adventure with them, as complete strangers. I think I would instantly say Yes if they came up to me asking to do something crazy. I want to seek discomfort.

Country Music

Country Music, when you hear those two words you may think of cheesy repetitive songs that are annoying. But in my opinion you'd be wrong, because there's just something about it that just calls out to me, it's one of the reasons why Country is my most listened to genre. As you can see in the picture below my Top 5 Artists from 2017 are all Country, and I'm assuming for 2018 the trend will be the same, only with a lot more minutes of listen time. I've actually changed a lot of my friends minds about country, they use to hate it and now they surprisingly like it. I'd recommend at least trying it (start with my top artists) and if you like it then great, but if you don't then that's fine too.

Movie Review | Avengers: Infinity War

This movie is going to be hard to review without any spoilers but I will attempt to. Avengers: Infinity War starts out right where Thor: Ragnarok ended which is just awesome. The two movies connect so well, so if you haven't seen Thor: Ragnarok I recommend watching it because it has some important backstory to Avengers: Infinity War. The movie is very long but for obvious reasons, it has been 10 years in the making. It brought together most of the Marvel Cinematic Universe into one movie. It is an epic film that is worth multiple watches in the theatre. The cliffhanger at the end ties into a new Hero whose movie will come out March 6, 2019. The next Avengers movie will arrive in theatres on May 9th, 2019. I recommend watching this movie at least once while it's in theatres. My rating is 10/10.
