A blog about a military brat who is living in Japan and is homeschooled....and seems to find himself in funny situations all of the time!

Chess
We chopped more wood today. Then we went on a hike....that's a separate post! After the hike we had dinner and then I challenged Grandpa to a third game of chess.
I am nothing but smiles after a two hour long game
He was the white, I was the black...this was near the end
He beat me in that game (it took two hours)....he is really good! He told me he had played a state champ into a draw before. I've played with Dad...he whopped me pretty bad in every game, showed me what a four play checkmate it like! This is a game we played yesterday...I won that game
Some of my most basic and core beliefs are:
1)I am so deeply grateful that God didnt give up on me
2) I love my family so very much, and am thankful they didnt give up either
3) I love my friends.....moving this summer is going to be bittersweet
4) I am stoked for life.....ready to rendezvous with my destiny
5) I have committed my life to integrity and honor......doing whats right all the time.
6) God has called me to be a leader within my country...subsequently, serving my America in whatever way she needs me is my driving passion in life
You should always face what you're afraid of. If you're afraid of water, then go swimming. If you're afraid of heights, then go sky-diving. And if you're afraid of clowns, go to the U.N.

Well, if you keep it up you'll probably become as much of a pro as they are. It's in the genes.
Y'know, I hadn't thought of that! Good point!
