Tornado's

 So I'm not sure if I'm the only that feels this way but, i do not like tornado's and i really don't like how they have torn our area apart. Now I'm all for sitting out in a thunderstorm and watching the weather but, as soon as I see the funnel cloud or hear that siren, I feel like a run faster than the fastest man on earth. I honestly can't see how someone can drive around in a truck with a camera and chase them. But hey, I respect those guys that do that! Because I sure don't have the guts to do that! But I will say that I feel extremely blessed to not be seriously injured. I was complaining about a tree falling on our sun room and crushing until i heard about the damage that had taken place in Alabama and all the death that came with the tornado's. I'm extremely blessed and feel really bad for the people in Alabama. One more thing before I go. Am i the only one that thinks God watches over McKenzie and especially Bethel University. They told us about all these hard storms that were supposed to crush us and they either went above us, below us, or both at the same time. It really makes me think this because of the storms on Monday afternoon. The funnel(from what the weather forecasters said) was about to touch down in Trezvant and tore them and was heading our way all of a sudden went away and turned into a thunderstorm warning, and once it got past us it turned back into a tornado and hit Henry and Paris pretty bad. It just completely jumped over us. In my opinion that is ALL God!!!!

Bittersweet Feeling

well, this spring is the last spring I'll ever have for college football for the rest of my life. Yes, it feels good to be closer to being done with my college career but at the same time i don't want it to end because I've had an enormous amount of fun. The thing that had went wrong was the fact that i was complacent during the first part of my career and didn't soak everything up and focus and play like i should have been. There have been so many things that have gone right. I've made a new family in my coaches and teammates. I grew up without a father and i didn't have any brothers so to me it's like i look at all of my coaches like father figures and every single one of my teammates are like my brothers. We are always there for each other. The thing that I would change would be my work ethic that I had in the beginning of my career. Even though i started every year even as a freshman I still didn't work hard in the weight room or on the field and i truly regret that.I believe that a lot of people see how I've changed and people see that I've changed for the better.
