Week 5

Week 5

Nose Blindness

This week is all about the senses, so I read this article about nose blindness in one's home. Basically, what happens is that when you add a new air freshener to your home, it hits the receptors in your nose. After 2 or 3 whiffs, the brain deems the smell non important and essentially ignores it. This is called sensory adaptation, which is present in all senses but only commonly in smell and hearing. There isn't very many ways to fix this, but by increasing blood flow to your nose and caring about the smell can increase the activity of the receptors in your nose in order to be aware of those pesky odors, it'll be more beneficial to bring a friend then to figure it out on your own.

Color Test

The color test that we took, in my opinion, wasn't the most effective thing in the world. I scored a 0 (the highest score), but it just seemed redundant. I don't think that it really accomplished anything, but if its proven then i guess it works.

Week 4

        On September 30th, 2002, I was born in Sugar Land TX. Throughout my life, my family and I have lived in the same house. In this household, there's my younger sister, my parents, my dog (Max), and me. My first word was turtle, because my parents used to play a children's program that featured an abundance of sea creatures. At the age of 4, I began to play tee ball, and that was when I fell in love with sports. I've played baseball, basketball,  football, swimming, and tennis.The reason I think i enjoy sports so much is because I am extremely competitive. School has been slightly easy and all in all i'm extremely satisfied with my life up to this point. 

My current goal for high school is to graduate in the top 1

0%. I haven't considered where I want to go to college, but I think I want to stay in state. Both my parents went to Texas A&M, so I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up there. I don't know what I want to study, but something in the math field would be preferable. My dream would be to be a general manager of a major sports team. However, if that doesn't work out, I could also be a chemical engineer. Towards the end of my career, I want to transition into a high school coach/stats teacher. I don't know who I'm going to marry, but I do know she'll be sweet, smart, and caring. I'dd prefer a smaller wedding, to save money, sometime from when i'm 26-32 years old. I want 2 kids one boy and one girl, but I'll keep going till I have at least one of each sex. I want to retire hopefully around 65, but as long as I'm coaching that's close enough to retirement for me. I hope to live till I'm 80.
