Field Day

Field day was a blast. The first thing I did was eat. Following eating I checked out the car show my friend Jordan brought his mustang that he races it was very cool. After that me and Trevor Foust went and was going to do the obstacle course but there was this one jousting activity that wasn't getting any attention so me and Trevor were first to do and then the crown came. The point of the jousting game was you were suited up and in a partial body suit u then had a huge Velcro head on top and the objective was the knock your opponents head off well i lost but that's all right. After jousting we went and did the obstacle course he beat me in that but that's alright I had fun. Next Trevor and I went to boxing that was fun. There were these huge glove that you put your hands in but there was a handle inside the glove to pick them up because the gloves were so big. I won in that against Trevor.

I had four boxing matches that day. My next match was against my friend in fire name Jake Wooten he his built but I am taller than he is but he won He had a lot of shots to my face then an upper cut and than knocked me on my butt but I got back up and we ended it he won that one. The next match was against my Friend Cory Brumbaugh He had an even fight so that was a draw. My final Match was against my friend Ray Young I beat him though I had a few more shots to the face than he did.

After Boxing I went inside and cooled down. After that I went into this ring were the objective was to knock your opponent off the center area were you had to stand with a jousting stick that was fun. After that I went to this thing were I went were I had to put on a vest with a bungee cord on the back and had to run as far as u could and place a velor rectangle it was cool I faced my friend Josh Moore he had the farthest reach. After that I did the jousting thing again inside the ring with a junior from fire name Andrew Johnson. Following that we went and did the jousting were you had to knock your opponents head off and then that was the end of my day. Injuries have whiplash and sore muscles not to bad I Graduate From EHOVE next FRIDAY YEAH!!!!

Ohio State Highway Patrol Academy

Thursday and Friday of this past week I went down to Colombus Ohio and spent two days at the Ohio State Highway Patrol Academy(OSHPA) and lived a day and a life of a cadet who would attend the academy with a some of my Criminal Justice Class. When we first arrived we got off the bus left our stuff and went in sat down and waited for our instructor Mrs. Bodkin to get everything started and get our rooms assigned to us. After that we took a tour of the whole academy which was cool one of the places we stopped was the gym were they were doing some self-Defense which was cool to watch a lot diffrent from what I learned. We got to go pass the shooting range weren't aloud to go in yet. later We went to lunch. After lunch we went to a few classes about core values military drill and what not. Then we went down stairs and went on the Driving simulator very cool exactly resembles inside of a police crusior. I didn't do to well but thats alright it made me dizzy didn't care for it much but it was fun. After that we went and got our stuff off the bus and took them to our rooms. Then we had time to sit around before we had to go to dinner. After dinner we went to a few more classes don't remember what about then we were able to chill for a few hours then we watched the movie Remember the Titians after the movie we had about an hour before lights out which was 10. I took that time got my class uniform set up and then as a class we went to the lounge and talked about the day then it was lights out so we all went to bed.

The Next Morning

We all woke up at 5:15 and had to be at the gym 10 to six because that what time P.T. started We made there with plenty of time to stretch we got there and we started P.T. with Trooper Englund, Staff Lieutenant. Allen and a guy That didn't give his name. It wasn't to bad but I survived I was the strongest out of my class I survived the whole thing with out having to stop but the rest of my class did but thats ok I rooted for them to jump back in but any way after P.T. we had 20 minuets to take a shower and be down stairs and be ready for breakfast at 7 Some of the girls were to slow and we didnt make it on time but thats ok we still got to have breakfast. After breakfast we sat through three classes. One on uniforms and how important it is to keep it Neat another on what we will do if we come to the academy and the last one was about tazers. After that we got to watch a tazar demonstration which was very cool I must say. After that it was time for the OSHP Police memorial. It was humbling and sad. But it was nice to be involved and able to be a part of. After the cermony we grabbed our bags and got on the bus and headed home. I was offically home a litte after 6 probably like 6:05 p.m. Well those were my two at the OSHPA. Thanks for reading and
God Bless
