I think I may have a topic!!!!!

I was just on google, and I typed in "Dutch Industries In Grand Rapids, MI" and I found something that very might end up being my topic!!

Please read this and let me know what you guys think, It isn't very long at all but I think it shows some potential!

I'm either going to do this topic, or something where soccer had a big impact because that is basically my life.  I hope to get some feedback, thank you so much!!!

Topic???

I am still trying to figure out what my topic is going to be.  I really don't have a particular interest in a certain time frame or part of History.  In general, I like history but their isn't anything in particular.  My grandparents are from the Netherlands and were there during the WWII era, so I was thinking that maybe it would be best for me to do something like that.  But I still have no idea.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

About Me

I was having difficulty doing this blog, for some reason I couldn't get it to work.  So this is my first blog.  I am 18 years old and a freshman at MSU.  I've grown up around here my whole life and I live real close so I am commuting.  I play for the MSU Mens Soccer team so that along with school takes up all of my time.  I have one older sister who is going to Saginaw Valley State University to become a doctor.  Since we have been in class awhile now I guess I'll just talk about the class.  This class scares me to death because I still don't know what community or industry I want to do, or even a time frame.  I feel really behind because I joined the class late and I have missed class because I was gone for soccer.  School in general is really starting to stress me out to the max.  It is very hard to balance my time right with playing a collegiate sport and playing soccer, this first semester as a freshman is a real kick in the butt.
