The 30th Annual Christmas in Washington

    The 30th Annual Christmas in Washington Program was on T.V Friday. I had never heard of it before but when I turned on the T.V TNT was showing it. They had amazing artists including Victoria Justice, Justin Bieber, and The Band Perry. They also had a wonderful host, Conan. At the end of the program The President came on stage with his family to give the annual presidential speech. It was a great speech but right behind him was his daughter Malia. To my surprise, during a serious moment in the speech, She makes her eyes get real big and then she starts to smile trying to keep herself from laughing. When she finally calms herself down she makes a funny face that makes her look like a monkey. The camera is immediately turned to keep from looking at her. I thought this was funny enough that you should know about it. All in all it was a marvelous program with a view laughs and a lot of surprises.

Against All Odds

     I am not a fan of football. It is confusing to me unlike baseball which is easy to understand. You are more likely to get hurt in football than you would in baseball or any other sport. This year is different. I got into the vicious game of football as our Palmetto High School Tigers went against all odds. This year I have paid attention to the close calls, the fumbles, and the interceptions. Football is more interesting when it is a close tie or an important game. This next game is very important. It is our last game before State. We play Norland Miami on Friday. If we beat them we get to go to State. Everyone is scared because they are undefeated, very strong, and fast. There are a few people who have hope for Palmetto and I am one of them. I believe that they know how difficult it is and will work harder than ever so they can make it to State. State would be an amazing game. If we make it to State we will most likely get out of school so that we can all go. It would make this year an awesome year and a year against all odds.
