Unable to Sleep

I write out this blog post because I find myself unable to sleep. 

I believe that I am unable to sleep due to my mind continuously generating thoughts. Kind of like how I can't sleep when I have school the next day but I can sleep like a rock when I don't have school the next day. So I figured I would write out a blog post because blogging helps me unwind and process my thoughts.

Actually, I believe that blogging is healthy for a person. It gives a person the ability to think and write what they have to say. You never know what you will come up. For me, blogging gives me an outlet to express myself and I enjoy it. I blog when I feel a need to. In all honesty, if someone asked me if I recommended them to start I blog I would say yes. However, the problem is that 1) people want blogs about topics such as marketing or money. 2) People get bored of it really quick and decide to quit. Either because they don't like the topic they chose or simply because they aren't getting enough views. I believe the latter option is the biggest concern for new bloggers. 

Heck, I barely have any views but I keep on blogging. I do want to thank those who have given my blog a look at and I hope you enjoyed it or at least took something away from it. But I just like to express myself and share my thoughts, opinions and ideas with others and thus I blog. Whether or not people actually notice my blog is like a secondary goal to me. My primary goal is to entertain and help myself. Give myself an outlet. I don't blog because I have to. I blog because I want to. 

But back to my original goal of this post. To cause myself to go to sleep. I remember a few posts back I mentioned that not getting around 8 hours of sleep can have adverse effects on the body and mind. Unfortunately, I find my mind continuously running at the moment. Probably because of some stressful reason that I have yet to discover. Hopefully it will hit me soon because I have college classes tomorrow. 

Anyways, I believe that this short post has allowed me to process my thoughts and for my mind to wind down. And on that note, I find myself going to sleep. As you can see, blogging really is good for you. Good night.

Super Bowl Game

Super Bowl 49

That was fun right?

Who were you cheering for? Patriots? Seahawks? Commercials

Me personally, I was in it for the commercials. Don't get me wrong, I respect both teams but I didn't really care who won. Both teams deserved a chance to win. 

So I'm going to address the game first then commercials. 

Personally I enjoyed the game. I was wrong in my prediction because I chose the Seahawks to win all because of their defense. Well, it looks like defense wasn't enough for tonight. 

Patriots 28 Seahawks 24

What a close game it was. There were some amazing plays in the game. Like the catch on the ground by the Seahawk's player. Now that was impressive. I mean seriously, you can't make this stuff up that's how amazing it was. Lynch #24 on the Seahawks was a monster in this game. It always took more than one guy to bring that beast down. Seeing him run was amazing. In the end, victory was in the Seahawk's grasp after that amazing catch but Wilson decided to throw it. I was yelling at the tv, "Don't throw it Wilson!" And thus, the interception that ended the game. 

Honestly, I wasn't upset but I was way into the game. Now, while the game itself was enjoyable and not a blowout like last year, that brawl at the end was uncalled for. I know I know: emotions and testosterone. It was a close game and I could foresee something like that happening. Overall I really enjoyed the game though. 

Now the commercials. There were some commercials that I really enjoyed and some just meh. Like the Discover Card commercial and the Budweiser commercial now those I enjoyed. That Budweiser commercial got to me. Even the Clash of Clans one was great because it had Liam Neeson in it. Coca-Cola was even doing a #MakeItHappy thing on Twitter where you replied to a negative tweet with it and Coca-Cola made a neat little picture with the tweet. Oh the sexual joke Fiat. Well played. These commercials were way better than last year's commercials. 

So anyways, this Super Bowl was really enjoyable and way better than last years, commercial wise and game wise. Tomorrow I will meet with my friends and we will discuss the game. Great game Seahawks and Patriots.
