Communication has been an important role in our lives since the beginning of humanity. As it written in the Bible in the Old Testament chapter 10 and 11, one tongue was shared between everyone in the world. Until the day where the lord confused those who try to see his majesty, which resulted in to different tongues or language. With out understanding the way of communicating, it could be a hard process. As our world aged, the level of communicating aged too. The world came in to know the Language of the English that now is the number one known tongue in our planet. Which makes it easier for different races to understand each other and to communicate in a higher level as if it’s their own. Today are filled with new invention of ways for people to communicate compare to grandma’s days. Phones, emails, letters, peepers, texting and more are ways used today. But the controversy is, is it affecting the way we live.
Cowabunga class site is a different community compare to our class English 105. As for the site, we could leave short or longer comments and questions in the site. But not knowing what that person would think about it and what are their responses. On the other hand, as for in the classroom we could chat it up and ask questions over questions and actually seeing what facial expression are given. Also its exciting to talk to everyone then leaving comments to someone. Cowabunga not only has it negatives but positives too. You could visit the site just to look what classmates are posting which I find it interesting.
Comparing your class and your community at home or your house would be a whole different. In the classroom, there are comfortable and limit spots that you could share with your classmates. Meaning everyone has a different view on everything. On the other hand, Family shares a different vibe and a stronger level of comfort than in the classroom. You could talk about everything in your family and be open then in the classroom.

High School Times
Well this is when I was in High School playing for Berkeley High School in Berkeley CA. I started playing when i was a junior and also learning the game for the first time ever. It was strange because Rugby my first sport was different than Football. So my first summer of my junior year i spent it with my Coach which he helped me alot. The easy part for myself was the tackling part coz rugby you tackle too. I started as a Linebacker on my junior year and senior, also became a captain.
This pictures are from some of the games that i played in. I was number 21 and 44 couple of times.

Ups and Downs on being a Football Player in NAU
Our football spring ball started last week. On Mondays, Wednesday and Saturdays we have liftings.
On Tuesdays and Thursdays we have early morning practice be out on ourpractice field at 6:45 ready to go on 7. On Fridays practice in the afternoon out on the fields. This is our schedule for the whole month of April. Which sucks. Being
a football player is not as easy as it looks. This is just April but when the summer roles up man its crazy. You feel like you
dont have a life. No free time at all. its like football 24/7. So when we have days off, we dont even know what to do with
it but just sleep. The bad thing is you feel control by the coaches. The good thing, is that you can become an athlete
on the collegiate level which not everybody are. Opens up lots of opportunities for the athlete and helps them keep inshape
espcially in Flagstaff. Last summer our on our first day of summer camp, we ended up running 110 yards under 15 seconds
eight times and i almost past out. Our practices gets harder mostly on the running part. But when the game comes, it all pays off. Long preporation for just 10 games guarantee in each year that is what football players do.

A Rugby Game and The Luau. It Was a Day :)
Woo ooh. Last Saturday (03/29/08) the team that i play for the landsharks rugby team hosted the #2 team in the league from Vegas. I got there at about 2 and the A team are playing. I could not play for the A team because i didnt register for the team and i did not want to because i didnt want my coaches to find out that im playing rugby. But i so happy that im about to play for the B team which you dont need to register for. The A team lost but our B showed them how we do things on the field. Not even 3 mintues into the game which was 30 minutes half. I scored. My team mates past me the ball and i just took off got through the opponents line of defence and head through the enzone. While i was in the enzone i was about to put down the ball and i saw someone running to try to tackle me. But i quickly plant the ball to the ground and flicked it backwards which hit him right on the face. Which i didnt meant to do it.(you know)After the referee call me out and ask me if i did it on purpose. I said no but he said it look like i did it on purpose. Therefore he gave me a warning. One more and then he will kick me out. So i laughed and ran back to my team. After the game i ended up with 4 tries or touchdowns as you can say. But during the game when i had a break away this one guy illegally pushed me and it got me mad. I told im gonna get him and i did. He broked our defensive line and i was the last defender and i ran up on him with all my might and struck him with a spear tackle which took him to the ground fast. You can hear the crowd go ooohhhhh when he went down. He got up and said to me "good hit" and i said sorry about that.
After the game i rushed back to the campus to perfome for the Luau which was held in the Du Bois center ball room. Me and friends perfomed Hawaiian dance and a Tahitian dance too. We open the show my doing the Warriors Dance aka HAka in Maori the natives of New Zealand. The show was good and we put it down good for the people who came. After the Luau i was so tired and then i told myself its time to go to bed.

Spring Brake
hello :)
well i left for spring brake on Friday the 13 of March. i catched a ride down Pheonix with my roomate and some team mates. As i got back in Oakland my dad was waiting for me to cook for him and so i did for the whole week. I had fun at home, I was happy to spend time with my little sister and the family. The food was always great and lots of it. So basically what i did was just chill at home with my family, friends and work out. The interest thing that happen to me was that i went to San Francisco to my cousins shop and got some cool clothes all for free.

Rugby Game
On 3/8/08 it was the first time i ever step back on a rugby field. I was
full of excitement because i haven't played rugby since last two years due
to football. But on this Saturday i was given a chance to play fot the NAU Sharks
B team, which was alot of fun. Not playing rugby for two years kind made
me nervous. But when that first tackle came and i made it, calm me down. Not long in the
game, like about five minutes, and i made the first try,( which was a touchdown in football).
When i got the ball i juked the first man i see, then stiff arm the second dude i see, and
carry to people in the try zone where i put the ball down and we were up by 7. The
opponents strike back fast. And then i came up with a breakaway that resulted into
another try ended up 14-7. Second half came and i was out of it couldnt feel my legs, and out of shape.
Not like football where we have time outs and pauses. No rugby went for 40 minutes non
stop, and the only brake youll get was when the ball goes outter bounce and penalties which were not many. The
opponents came back and won by touchdown but i wasnt up set because i was having fun.
Even though we lost but i was glad that I got to play my first sport again. Well we are playing
again two weeks after spring break. Everyone is welcome, if you want to watch let me know
and tell you directions. I promise those who never seen a rugby game, it will be a good experience.

Ey im back sorry for not posting anything for the last two weeks. But now im back
ha ha. well heres my story for the day. I woke up at 5:45 to go to football practice
and instead of running which we always do. We played
dodge ball which got everybody excited. We were divided into four teams, and then
we started. My team went first and lost. Then up again and lost again. After the
tournment we ended as the team with most losses. But everything was good, and everyone
in the team had a good time.
