"Jam Out" Playlist.
You guys may not know what I mean by " Jam Out. " It means I can just let loose and sing along to the song without anybody caring what I look and sound like, something I can jam out too. I usually have a good time listening to these songs. The playlist is;
Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen
Boyfriend - Justin Bieber
What Makes You Beautiful - One Direction
One Thing - One Direction
Glad You Came - The Wanted
Summer Paradise - Simple Plan
These songs usually get me in a good mood. The thing is, I'm usually into the hip-hip and rap genre. These are the songs that are out of that genre that I can go crazy too. Be on the lookout for more playlists, and don't forget to check in weekly for my Wisdom of the Week! Later Days!

My first comment was posted on Patrick's blog. I decided to comment on his post because it really caught my attention. His post was a picture of Kevin Durant with the words, " Sometimes to become successful, you need to give up sleep." This really gets me thinking and inspired. Durant is a very hard worker and it all paid off. Everything comes at a price. Also, I often need inspiration to get me going in basketball training or working out just like Patrick does. By commenting, I give Pat credit for showing us something that can give each of us a little bit of motivation.
My second comment was a on Bella's blog. Her post was a picture of forearm with a temporary tattoo on it. It had a bell, followed by the letter "A," to represent her name. I commented on this post saying it was clever and creative. If I came up with something clever or creative I think it would be nice to be given credit, so I gave Bella credit. Also the idea of temporary tattoos let us expirement before getting an actual one. I have always wanted a tattoo, but have never had the courage to get it done.
Finally, my last comment was on Nathalie's blog. I commented on her personal addition of one of her playlists. One of the songs on her playlist was What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction. I love this song. The reason I commented was because the idea of posting one of your playlists is great! I think it is a great idea, and will be shortly doing mine. Also, I wanted to mention that I was also a fan of one of her songs. What do you think this song is trying to say? Are they trying to get rid of somebody insecurities, or that everybody is beautiful and nobody is ugly? Maybe it's a neat way of trying to wheel a girl. If it was, Im pretty sure it worked. Either way, it's a splendid song.
A good comment consists of good structure. It can't be a couple meaningless words. Take the time and give the blog owner a few sentences of good quality. A bad comment would be something useless, boring and short. Also, it usually consists of slang, bad grammar or rudeness. A bad comment is something that would put down the blog owner.
Receiving and/or giving comments on blogs can really keep the blogger motivated and active. If you consistently receive comments, the blogger will realize that their work is being appreciated and will most likely keep their blog updated. Also, when you give out a good comment, you can expect a good one back. It is also good advertisement for your blog. Whoever visits that comment on that specific blog, will see your blog name and maybe visit you. It's a good way of getting your blog out there! Well, that's all for now! Later Days!

My Knicks!
Alright, as you may already know, I am a big fan of basketball. I play the sport at least four or five times a week. Basketball is a huge part of my life. I really enjoy watching it too. A couple months ago, I made a bet with a fellow friend. His name was Patrick Mart. I bet that the New York Knicks would make the playoffs. The NBA playoffs start saturday, and my Knicks clinched the seventh seed in the east! I won five bucks from Patrick, but more importantly I can cheer on my favourite basketball team and player, Carmelo Anthony.
Alright, for other basketball fans, you guys are probably thinking, " Oh, Vince is on their bandwagon." Well Carmelo Anthony has been my favourite basketball player since college when he played for Syracuse. He was always my favourite player, so when he moved to the Knicks, of course I adapted and starting cheering them on. So f"ck off haters! Later Days.

Reading Reflection #6
Book: City of EmberAuthor: Jeanne DuPrau
Pages Read: 120-145
Six weeks have gone by and this book has yet to totally capture my attention. I think the author needs to do a slight better job on building tension and suspense. The author also does not set the scence very often, so it makes it a little more difficult to picture what is going on. As I was reading, I realized that one of the main characters in the book has a somewhat similar personality as I do. This character's name is Lina Mayfleet. Lina seems to be a very curious and adventurous person. She also really cares her little sister, Poppy. It may not seem like it, but I really do care for my sister as well. On the flipside, she also has some traits that are not alike mine at all. She is constantly polite. Unfortunately, I struggle to do be polite at all times. Finally, Lina is always willing to give a helping hand. It's not I am against helping others, I just dont really like to go out of my way to help others.
At this point, I am really starting to doubt the thought of my enjoying to read. Although there has been progress. I am going to try and start reading at home because I just passed the halfway mark in my book and its been six freaking weeks. Meanwhile, some people have already finished their first book. I am really going to try improving my reading practise. Hopefully this will give me a little more interest in reading. Until then, later days!

Vince's Wisdom of the Week
Alright guys, for those of you who had not yet noticed, I've decided to rename my personal additions to "Wisdom of the Week" instead of "Advice of the Week." It's not a big difference so hold the tears. This just give me a little bit more freedom and breathing room. Well back to business, this weeks wisdom is;
Wearing high socks with slip on sandals are the most comfortable footwear in the world.
For some reason, only basketball players will wear high socks with sandals. Is it that us basketball players have the most knowledge in the world? Because everybody should be taking advantage of this comfort. Well, I guess that's what I'm here for. To share knowledge with you. Until next time, Later days!

Writing Reflection Five.
I finally finished colour coding my "Moment" this week. I thought it went pretty well. I think there wasn't enough "show, don't tell" in it though. That is something that I can fix before handing it in. I learned that as a writer, I try and make people laugh. Which probably should change a little. I should take my writing assignments a tad bit more serious.
I think the idea of writing a fan fiction would be really fun! Fiction is always fun, you get to be really creative and use your imagination. I think most of the people in our class would really enjoy this. I also think that exploring Twitter from an educational stand point would be interesting. I think there would be a lot of regrets by doing this though. I think most people would read their tweets and wish it wasn't part of their digital footprint in the long run. Both ideas seem great! That was Writing Reflection #5, later days!
