#5 Ducey Deuces

Image
In todays blog I will be expressing information on the words of Arizonas governor Doug Ducey. The governor stated that it is important for college students to graduate for many different reasons. He states that college students have a higher opportunity. Higher opportunity can mean a bunch of other things but he means that we can make more money and have better jobs if we graduated college. Having any type of degree can greatly increase our chances for higher pay and getting a job right away. Though having a degree can increase our opportunity, theres no true security in acquiring a job in the field we have studied in. for example, one of my family members went to ASU and graduated with a masters degree in teaching and has yet to find a job in her field. Another family member of mine got a degree in Christian Studies and now works at American Express. Though I agree with the words of the governor, i fear that we may graduate and still not have the opportunity that he speaks of.

#3 Trump's Haters

Ever since Mr. President's inauguration into office, people bashed and shamed him over his words and public speakings. Many believe that President trump is a racist and has no real desire to protect those of minority in any way. Many also believe that he is an angel sent from heaven to fix the beautiful/corrupt United States from impending doom. Yes, he can sometimes come off as childish but he has proven that he can really benefit the great economy of America. Furthermore, New York Post has provided an article of media bias that projects the actions of an anonymous foe who believes that democracy will die if it is in the dark. Throughout this article, evidence of CNN becoming "clouded" has caused many wrongful judgements to arise on President Trump. While reading, the main reason associated with the "whistleblower" is that he/she wants to clearly have the President impeached from office. https://nypost.com/2019/10/13/inside-the-medias-relentless-crusade-to-

#6 Camping

I love to go camping. Camping is definitely one of my favorite things to do especially in AZ. The beauty of the night sky up north goes unmatched. Have you ever laid in a hammock and got to see the milky way in the sky? If you haven't, thats something that you should try to make happen this winter or spring. Ever since I was little, my Nana and Tata would take me to Payson to camp and fish. I never truly enjoyed camping when I went with them because their version of camping was to stay at a boujee lodge. However, recently for the past 4 or 5 years i've been roughing it in the woods more often. Roughing it means that I just go camping without showers, bathrooms, or even a set campground. The background and scenery of the nature is beautiful, covered in giant green trees, a beautiful night sky, and has running water. Typically my family likes to go camping at a set camp, and not rough it. My girlfriend however, is much like my Nana and Tata, her version of camping is to g

Murder Mystery #4

Image
Hows it going today guys? Hope all is well with everyone and having an awesome Wednesday! Todays blog will be about a movie I watched recently and I wanted some feedback.  The movie i'm referring to is the new Murder Mystery movie with Adam Sandler & Jennifer Anniston. It's about a couple who wanted to take a trip out of country on a tour and got invited to go on a luxury yacht due to their tour being very.... unlike they imagined.  They pulled up off the plane and saw a trashy, run down, super rugged bus with no windows and a packed van. Imagine getting ready for a super nice vacation, you go buy some vacay clothes and are all set for the trip, and when you get there, you see that Nacho Libre esque van. (Bus from Nacho Libre). Throughout the movie theres tons of humor and funny lines that make it into a comedy/ murder mystery. Some events happen that caused me to wonder who killed who and how everything went down on the yacht.  In the end Ad

Today is the day i explain the background to why I LOVE the Minnesota Vikings! First of their colors are the best colors in the league. My favorite jerseys they wear are their official Nike Color Rush uniforms. Other than the uniforms, I loved to watch #28 play for the Vikings. If you don't know who #28 is i'll tell you, it's Adrian Peterson. Adrian Peterson single handedly tore up the NFL since entering the league in 2007. He went on for that rookie season to rush for 1,341 yards with only 238 attempts. He went over 1,000 yards rushing more than 7 times in his career. However, in 2012 he ran for over 2,097 yards almost breaking the single season rushing record held by H.O.F running back Eric Dickerson. Sadly he missed the record by 9 yards... but they ended up winning the game. Link to A.P 2012 season highlights:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S60kgifpNzM Another reason why I love the Vikings is because my dad loved Randy Moss and Brett Favre. He raised me

#1 What Does Blogging Mean to Me?

Image
Blogs to me are a new age way of sending someone a letter. You know how in the movie the Notebook starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams how when he was gone she sent him letters? Blogs are just a way of sending one letter to everyone at once. Doesn't have to be overly mushy, doesn't have to be all business.  You create blogs to show people who you are and what you're doing for others people enjoyment while enjoying making the blog. Today I visited a couple blogs and came across some that really intrigued me and some that weren't very keen for my liking. I'll start off withe the one in particular that I really didn't enjoy as much.  The name of the blog is called Craft Fail. It looks like Pinterest, however; instead of having glorious DIY builds, you have DIY fails. The builds can range from weird soaps that look like trash, or some baby dolls that look like potatoes. If you're interested in making crafts with your kids or by yourself, slide over to  h

Who Am I?

Image
What is up guys! So today is my official first day of blogging and to kick this in gear I would like to say a little bit about myself! First off my name is Holden and yes I know my name can totally be used for puns (Ex: Holden the door) which I think is a good ice breaker and makes me slightly unique.  What I aspire to do in the future is to meet my goal of becoming a police officer or possibly run my own business one day. Yes running a business and being a CEO of a company are completely different but I'm open to what the future holds. I am very much into sports and outdoor activities. Ever since i was about 4-5 years old I picked up a bat and fell in love with baseball, which then changed to football and then on and on and on. When i was in High school I decided to pursue wrestling and enjoy the physicality of the sport and inevitably helped me get better at football. My favorite sport if I had to choose would be football. Football season is the best season ever, I
