Kyle & Casey Ready for the First Regular-Season Game
Hey Duke Fans!
Last night we played our last exhibition game against the Division II National Champs Findlay. They were a really good team, but we played a good second half and came away with a solid win. Practice really picked up in intensity last week, everyone is really excited because the season really is here, and our next game counts in our record!
Off the court we have been doing some pretty fun things too. Casey is a big Yankees fan, so we have been watching the MLB playoffs, and I know he is hoping that the Yanks can win the Series tonight in Game 6, I guess you could call me a Yankees fan by association! We’ve also been watching some new YouTube videos. Lately we have been watching a lot on the “2012 Theory”. There is a new movie coming out soon about the whole theory, but basically what it says is that centuries ago the Mayans predicted that December 21, 2012 would be the end of the world. The videos have a lot of interesting theories and information that all seem to fit together, but we don’t buy it. We also have been watching some blooper videos, including the Top 10 Most Awkward Sports Interviews and the Chinese Food Prank Call.
In addition to all this, we both have also had a lot of school work the past week. Kyle has been working on a big project for one of his art classes, called Maya, where he forms shapes based on numerical data from a large company. He chose Nike and then coordinated all the shapes into an animated scene that is supposed to symbolize the company and its elements on the whole. It is hard to explain, but it is really really cool how each shape represents a different piece of data, like stock price, or number of workers, and the animated scene he made is really cool. I also have been doing a lot of work this past week too, with both an Econ and an Environmental Science exam last week. We also are registering for classes for Spring Semester this Friday, so Kenny King our Academic Adviser has been helping everyone on the team get classes organized for that.
