ITS A BEAUTIFUL DAY TO BE IRISH

 

There is one day every year where everyone wears green and brags to everyone saying, "I am Irish just for today!" While holding a dark beer in their hand. It is a day where people go out to bars, friend's houses, or the street, wearing green, celebrating, and being full of smiles! But there is always a couple of questions people do not know... When did this amazing celebration start? Why do we wear green? What can we do to celebrate St. Patrick's Day?

The celebration started in the United States on March 17th, 1737 in Boston where they celebrated and honored St. Patrick with the Irish people in the area. They celebrated with wearing green and drinking.

People all around bars and streets are wearing just green all around and people wonder, "Why do we have to wear green? Why wear the most challenging color to find an outfit for when out?" And the answer to this is, it is a tradition and to be wearing a piece of the shamrock. People have been very creative over the years of what they wear... Some people just wear a "Kiss me, I'm Irish" T shirt, or some people literally pain themselves green chugging beers. But if you do not wear green... apparently you get pinched. And I will say to that is... If you try to pinch me, you best not miss. 

Now here is what we are all waiting for... What do you do when celebrating St. Patrick's Day? YOU DRINKS AND YOU DRINK HARD! Or that is what I see on social media every day every year. This is when you go to bars where they have beers that are green or if you are an absolute savage... You drink a Guinness beer while dancing around. There are drinking games, songs to drink to, and just time to celebrate together. The song that always gets me in the Irish spirit is Rattlin' Bog where I have no idea what is being said in the song, or the message to the song. But I know when they start talking quickly, you start drinking, and you start drinking hard. 

So you wake up this morning... You get a beer in your hand... You drink hard... And you celebrate because on March 17th, EVERYONE IS IRISH AND CELEBRATING THE GREAT DAY!

Dawg in Him

 Every year in basketball, there is a player that talks the talk and is able to walk the walk. There's players like JJ Reddick, Jalen Rose, Grayson Allen, and is the new one now Cam Spencer? Uconn's starting shooting guard is a 5th year senior that has been to 3 different schools and this year is now getting the spotlight of college basketball. Cam Spencer starting his college basketball career at Loyola Maryland, where he played for 3 years where he averaged 10 Freshman year, 10 Sophomore year, and 19 Junior year. After his successful junior year, he transferred to Rutgers for his Senior year averaging 13 points a game as the team went 19-15 and now has transferred for his 5th year going to the reigning national champions Uconn Huskies.

The first time I found out he is not someone to mess with i

Love Is Blind 3 New Episode Reactions

Image
 I think it is very smart for Love Is Blind to bring out the episodes 3 at a time because now I have to wait and wonder what is going to happen for the next episodes when they come out. It is making me crave this television show even more. It is like people having the extra urge to have Chic Fil A on Sunday... just because you cannot have it makes you want it more. With these 3 episodes, some couples already completely ended, some have had some ROCKY moments, and some are absolutely thriving. I was completely wrong about this couple. I thought because they both were such caring and kind people that they would match and just be in love forever, and that did not happen. They were on vacation with the best view and best things to talk about and it was completely awkward on that boat ride for about 25-30 minutes... thank goodness a dolphin came up for one of them to say anything at all. She was angry he was not showing her love, and he seemed like he was done with his vacation vibe and wen

Casino First Timer

 As I sit here, watching sports, wishing I was making some +10000 parlay and make it big and retire at a young age, I think about the first time I went to the casino. I went to a glorious casino in Connecticut called Foxwoods where I walk in being the big spender I am... I brought $300 for a 2 night event. There's 2 ways it could go leaving the casino after the trip; either walking out with so much money in my wallet that I couldn't close it, or, drive home hoping I have enough gas to make it home hoping I have enough food in the fridge for the week. But that first night, oh that first night was a MOVIE! And when I mean movie, I mean going from 300 to 450 so making a remarkable 150 that night. I walk into the place and I was looking like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory just being in awe of everything and trying to soak it in. The bright lights, the cheers, the smell if cigarettes, feels like I was Daniel Jones in the great Metlife Stadium. I was hitting in all ends that night
