Sonic The Hedgehog

  One of the first video games I remember playing as a kid and still enjoy to this day is Sonic the Hedgehog.

Originally created in the early nineties by programmer Yuji Naka  and artist Naoto Ohshima who at the time were working for Sega.

Sonic was basically Sega’s way of trying to compete against Nintendo and their famous character Mario.

The first Sonic the Hedgehog game came out of for the Sega Genesis and to say that it made an impact, would be an understatement. 

I remember playing this as a kid, and I just loved it. What was unique about Sonic was the speed of the character. The level designs were also incredible especially for the time, just watching that speedy blue hedgehog race through each stage was definitely enjoyable to watch. Though I must confess, the drawback to that was you never really got to appreciate all the artwork and graphics of the game.

And of course, there were more games to follow for Sonic and his friends as they continued to fight for freedom against the evil Doctor Robotnik or Eggman as some like to call him.

Out of all of the sonic games I enjoyed, was Sonic Adventure 2 for the Sega Dreamcast. In my humble opinion, to me this was not only peak Sonic, but peak Dreamcast and peak Sega as we all know that the Dreamcast sadly was killed off and Sega took a massive hit.

Despite all that Sonic was able to survive and join in some legendary video games with Nintendo. Games like Super Smash Brothers and Mario vs Sonic Olympic Games just to name a few.

The latest Sonic game I got to play was on my PS4 called Sonic Forces. And to be honest, I really did enjoy it. Now Sonic games haven’t really been as good as they once were, but I truly did enjoy this game.

Now another reason I enjoyed Sonic was that he had some amazing cartoons when I was a kid. From the original Sonic the Hedgehog, to Sonic Underground and of course Sonic X.

I hope that Sonic can continue to thrive in this industry and hopefully find a new generation of fans. Remember everyone he is the fasting thing alive 😁

Lewistown Area High School Class of 2009

 I can't believe it has been 15 years since me and Chad have graduated from Lewistown Area High School back in 2009. High school was a very interesting time for not just myself, but for many of us who had attended, mainly because usually times at high school is the time of getting to know ones self and discover who they are and what there place is in this world. Being a teenage to becoming a young adult can be very challenging to a lot of people during this time in life. Especially with dealing with all sorts of different emotions that we didn't understand before. Sadly, there are also a lot of young people who struggled to figure things out during their time in high school and I was certainly one of those people.  I mention this because recently I found and looked back through my yearbook when I graduated from Lewistown and it was pretty cool to see some old faces especially now that I am older and learned so much about myself. The only problem about this is I wish I knew what

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting

Is It Worth It To Keep Fighting?

 You know the thing I hate the most about dealing with depression and just mental health in general is the simple fact that I know that there are so many people in this world you is dealing with struggles in their lives. And I keep telling myself to stay humble and be grateful for everything I have in this world and that things can always be worse, but, I ultimately just end up hating myself. I wish I was stronger, I really do because I feel embarrassed about feeling this way. I hate it! I really, really hate dealing with this crap in my head! I mean, there are people dealing with cancer and other diseases, people who are struggling with addiction, you know we all got problems. So I do apologize I am honestly not trying to make this about me because I ain't anything special and most likely never will be. I'm just so frustrated about life and just trying to find meaning in anything really. My whole life I have tried my best to prove that I can do something with myself and overco
