A New Me

Any body who knows me, knows that I love to eat. Kind of why I am going into Culinary. But I have eaten to much, enjoyed pop a few too many times. Have not really tried to run it off (the calories and sodium, and all that junk, that is).
So in an effort to be the "fit" Matt I used to be I am going to, starting on Monday, drink no pop AT ALL, go to the gym at least four times a week, eat breakfast every morning, and stop eating a midnight snack.
Do not worry I do not think I am fat and need to lose a hundred pounds, I just want to be fit again and be able to run for hours like I used to.
I want to say a special thank you to Corey Mann, Lavon Kil(my mother), and Lauren Makowski. You guys are my inspiration.

NEVER, NEVER QUIT!

This a poster I have had in my room for a long time now...the scripture reads, Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him. James 1:12

Blessed


I am SO blessed to have the family and friends that are in my life! You guys are absolutely amazing and I can not thank you enough. For any one who reads this and has helped at any point in my life, THANK YOU! You guys give and give and give and do not expect any thing in return. Do not worry some day Chewy's Diner will open and all family and friends are welcome! I love you guys

THANKS

God


Through Nature...I saw him this morning

Driving

Sorry that I have not posted about my accident and told everyone about it yet. I was waiting because I took pictures on my phone and I was going to wait until I got pictures on my computer. For some stupid reason I can not get them up.

So anyways I was getting ready to go to school one morning and I almost stayed home because I was not feeling well that morning and I felt as if I was going to vomit. I live on State Road 23 which is a VERY busy street with the speed limit at 50MPH. Every time I pull out of my driveway I look three to four times. As I approached the end of my wet and a little foggy driveway I came to a complete stop and looked three times both ways. I saw nothing on either side except for a car coming on the right side about 150 yards away (the lights were all I could see). So I proceeded to pull out making a left turn. As I pulled out and got three fourths of the way out...BAM, CRASH, CRAP, DADS GOING TO KILL ME!!!!!!! I got hit in the rear drivers side door by a Jeep Cherokee going at least 50MPH. My car was totaled and I could not open either of the drivers side doors from the inside or outside. The rear doors window totally busted out. Most of the glass went in the back seat but quite a bit went on the hood, windshield, and on my seat. My rear axle was busted and tire flat! I could just barely open my trunk.

I was okay and the girl and boy were okay in their car. The girl driving was only sixteen years old and the boy in the car with her was only eighteen. Everyone walked away with scrapes and bruises but nothing major.

I felt very sore in my neck and my chest where the seat belt laid. My wrists were bruised up and scrapped and my knees hurt.

My Dad did not kill me, he was VERY calm and understanding, and helped me get a new car the next day. A 1998 Honda Accord LX Coupe 2 door. THANK YOU DADDY!

I guess what I am trying to say is, if you feel like you are going to vomit, then just stay home!
