Assignment #1 Rick Marino

Hoowwwdddyyy ho! Yes I know, this a very late entry. Very late. Currently I have no blog posts done. I checked my grades the other day on infinite campus and stumbled upon 8 zeros, and I thought to myself, "Oh yea....I should probably do those." Anyways, back to the assignment. My is name Frederick Marino, however, everybody knows me by Rick. I would also accept slick rick, if that floats your boat. It goes without saying that I'm junior in the academy at Henry Clay high school. One of my primary goals for this year is to curb my procrastination and forgetfulness regarding school assignment, as you can see I have a problem with.

I kinda smirk at the request to share what "geeks" me. In my circle of friends, we us "geek" as a slang term meaning to make someone laugh. For example, "SpongeBob geeked me as a kid," or "Louis C.K., the comedian, gives me the geeks," or "David Letterman geeks no one." But, in the conventional definition, sports geek me. Particularly basketball. I have an inexplicable passion for the game. I die for ankle-breaking crossovers, ferocious dunks, and splashing three pointers. I watch players like Steph Curry and James Harden in dumbfounded, delighted awe.

Paragraph form is boring me at this point. And because of the informality of this writing, I will finish this post with a compilation of lists:

 I have a spunky and eccentric flavor of humor. I often find myself comparing people to nonhuman entities to amuse myself. For example, I would liken J.K. Simmons to an expired raison or Johnny Travolta to a bird of prey.

 My favorite website is You Tube, where is spend many wasted hours. This video displays my odd sense of humor- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbepN4dKLbU
