This will be the last Harry Potter post I will have of the first book considering I have now completed the book. Since the last post I have picked up my reading and finished the book, mostly because it is very hard to put down. Harry goes through lots of hardships on his way to discovering who Nicholas Flamel is and eventually the sorcerer's stone. In his journey he eventually has a professor trying to kill him who is working for Harry's parents killers Lord Voldemort.
This book was very interesting and the character really help define the book, I even related to one of the characters. Ron Harry's best friend has the same attitude as me as well as his personality and the way his family is. Without the characters the book truly could not work. If I did an analysis on this book I would do it on this topic. Reading the book also helped me understand more about the importance of family, Harry loses his and Rons kind of adopts him. This book was a great read and I would like to keep reading the series however I would like to read the Godfather part 2

LSU baseball
LSU my favorite college football team is also my favorite baseball team, I go to many LSU games each year and has been part of my culture for many years. Ever since I can remember LSU has been my favorite team since I was a child, my dad and I used to go to many games together and the team has just recently started to be successful once again.
In 2009 my favorite football player from LSU, Chad Jones who played saftety for the football team also was a key pitcher on the Baseball team. Chad was the main reason the team won it all in 2009 and ever since he did that I have wanted to follow in his footsteps. Each year I go to at least 15 games and already this year I have already been to 4 out of 6. This season I hope they go all the way to Omaha but they have already had a ruff start.

Mardi Gras
In my family Mardi Gras is a big tradition in which we celebrate each year in many ways. Our family likes to celebrate in New Orleans every year because of our long family roots there. Since I can remember attending parades was a part of life, partially because one year I got the chance to ride in one! Although it was a while back the memories are still clear and I hope one day I will get to enjoy them again.
When we arrive in New Orleans we go straight to the Royal Sonesta which is where my Dads company gives him a room every year, ironically the hotel is right in the heart of the quarter, Bourbon Street. This street is one of the wildest you will ever see, it truly is a one of a kind expierence. Mardi Gras meaning fat tuesday is an event that is widely celebrated here and in Birmingham Alabama which claims to have started it, but who's is cooler? Ya thats right us! If you havent witnessed it you are missing out on a crazy southern style party!
