Ok so if you really know me, you then know that I really don't like reading. But in the last couple of weeks I have fallen in love with a series of books dealing with a current Romeo and Juliet by the names of Edward and Bella. The series of course is Twilight, and I really love these books.
My sister got the first book for her birthday about a week and a half ago. In that time span, both my sister and I have read the book. My sister, being the reader she is, is near ending the third book. I, on the other hand still have to get my hands on the second book. I can't wait.
Also, with the release of the movie, I really can't wait to see that. This weekend my sister went to see the movie and she siad it was amazing.
As a final word, I would just advise everyone to read this book. Only then can you decide whether or not the story is AMAZING!!

Football
I finally feel for the first time all season like Ohio State is going to go to a bowl game. I really don't know what bowl game we would go to, all I know is that we are finally number ten, and chances are we are going to have to chance to finally prove ourselfs worthy of a championship.
In other news, I did something this weekend that I have never done: read a book in 28 hours. The book was called "The Last Lecture", and it was the best thing I have ever read. Then my sister finished her "Twilight" book last night, and am now starting on that. So far, I love it. You know I never could imagine reading this much, but the books are so addicting that I can't put them down.
I am set to see the movie on November 29th. Can't wait!

So I've been really thinking about a good aphorism. And I think that my best aphorism is the one that I created. I am Unstoppable, and nothing is going to get in my way. I have lived by being Unstoppable my whole life, and I have never let anything stop me. One thing that I have always strived to do is my best, and nothing less. I can't say that I gave it my 100% unless I actually did. Being Unstoppable is not letting other peoples judgements stop you from accomplishing what you want to achieve.

I Don't Understand....
I don't understand...
Why those who criticize are not criticized themselves.
Why we can raise money for presidents, but not for those who need it.
Why hate is heard more than love.
Even more....
Why the rich get richer.
Why children must fight for themselves.
And why equality now equals diversion.
I do understand...
Why a new day comes.
Why inspiration will create the future.
And why compassion gives something to all.

The Greatest, Hands Down
When they march across the field I am stunned.
They simply are the best.
No one else can compare to how talented they really are,
and yet, it makes me wonder:
Are we every going to get that national championship?
I'm sure we are due for one,
but the pain of waiting is sinking in.
Well, for the time being,
Go Buckeyes!

Unstoppable
The world has an image of me.
In one glance you won't see my true identity.
And when our eyes meet judgements are made.
Society dictates how the roles are played.
I know who I am, but I wonder what you see.
Do you only see the things that hinder me?
Or are you blinded by cosmetic scenary?
What do you see when you see me?
I see Unstoppable.
A life where nothing is impossible.
I'm facing life with faith, courage, strength, and a little help from my friends.
And everyone has their own mountains to climb,
but you won't see a victory if you refuse to try.
I won't let trials be the thing that let me down.
I turn them into triumphs, and make a mighty sound.
I am Unstoppable.

Hello, my name is Nathan Watt. From this opening you can probably tell that I am a very straight foward person. I love many in life. One of those loves is music. I am very involved in music and guitar, and have made five of my own original songs. The very first song I have ever written with my mom was called Unstoppable. Unstoppable has been my favorite song also. This song has won many award, most notably the award for defeating stigma in healthcare award for 2006. This is a national award given out every year by the Simon Foundation. I love being to make something out of nothing, and music lets you do just that.
Another important thing to note is the fact that I have Spina Bifida. I have undergone 46 major surgeries, and have been hositalized many more times. I own two wheelchairs and can abulate by both walking and rolling. Although this is a fairly big part of my life, I try not to look back on all the bad things that this has brought me. Instead I like looking at what I have been given because of my disability.
I am a firm believer that a good family is that base for all things you need to accomplish. For example, I would not be able to do what I can today, without the help given to me by my mom and family. My mom has always treated me like everyone else, never letting me give excusses just becuase I am disabled, and I am so much better off because of this. My sisters are also very helpful because they are there for me when ever I ask them to be. I wouldn't know how to be a good person if it were not for my family helping me along, every step of the way.
To wrap it up, I'll leave it at this. I always try my best to succeed every day. I never quit, and I don't let the small things in life get me down. I am Unstoppable, and I will always continue and strive to be this way. For now,
Nathan Watt
