Introductions come first...


Hi, I'm Mike..

I've been going  to the North Broward high school since the 1st grade. Why I keep coming back, I do not know =P... There is a ton o to like about this school. For one thing, what other high school do you know of that has a café?! As a Senior here at North Broward, the café is open to us no matter what time of the day. Also, during lunch we are allowed to go off campus. Here I come Chipotle!

The school is just grand and the classes aren't half bad either. This year in English, I hope to discover new stories to learn about and go deep into what is being told. I wish to understand more about literature and how a great story is written and also how to find more great stories on top of that.

Being a Florida resident, my home life is not much different from my school life. I withstand the same heat year round, whereas some foreign kids get to return home on school breaks and experience their homeland weather. I know the Coconut Creek, Coral Springs, and Parkland areas very well. So well, that if I was to be dropped off in the middle of nowhere, I could probably find my way home =D.



A little bit about me... What do I like to do? I began playing baseball when I was 10 years old. I have played baseball for North Broward since the 9th grade and I plan on playing my Senior year. Unfortunately, in July, I fractured my 5th Lumbar Disc...basically i fractured my lower spine. I'm still not fully healed and I wont be until late this year =(.. Other then that, I love to fish and I am a huge gamer. Another thing about me is that I'm a huge Dragonball fan..... Yes, I know I'm a nerd =D......I also play golf, but I haven't played in a while and I miss the extremely hard sport. I used to play in tournaments and win too, but those days are over...it's more recreational at this point.




One last thing about myself.....I have a passion for music. I absolutely hate where the music industry has gone during this generation.. I despise all types of rap and all rappers and all the terrible Pop and hiphop music out there. To be fair, there is only one rapper that I enjoy and it's Eminem. Other than that, the rest are atrocious. I listen to all typs of rock. I favor heavy metal over the rest but anything with good guitar puts a smile on my face. I like country, classic rock, southern rock, hard rock, death metal, and some full on screamo. My favorite guitar player of all time, and my musical model it Buckethead. He is literally the BEST guitar play that God has bestowed on his people. His music strikes me at the heart. I can't even explain his music, you have to do yourself a favor and look him up on YouTube...Actually, don't even waste your time on YouTube, just download his music right off the bat!
