Michael Casey- Wilson the Football

“Wilson the Football”

Wilson is important to me as I have had him since I was a Freshman in High School.  I have brought Wilson on every family vacation with me and he has been in one ocean, six lakes, and four rivers.  Because I have had this football for so long, it has in a way become a part of me.  With that in mind I have chosen to take Wilson and place him in situations that emulate a general day of mine.  The following photographs are an abstract depiction that really describe me, through a football that I have had for years.

Here is Wilson driving to get food. This is an important part of his day as he will need

energy to keep him going for the rest of the day. Wilson is sure to wear his seat belt to avoid

getting hurt in case he gets in an accident. One staple of Wilson’s personality are his sunglasses

that he always wears.

This is Wilson relaxing in a tree outside of his townhouse. Wilson loves to climbs trees

and is something he has been doing since he was a young football. Wilson spends at least a half

hour a day perched in his favorite tree. From his tree he is able to keep an eye on all of the

townhouses as well as get some color on sunny days.

Here is Wilson at his favorite restaurant, Chipotle. Wilson always gets a chicken burrito

and chips with guacamole. No matter where Wilson eats he always enjoys a cold lemonade.

This is Wilson taking some of his friends out to enjoy a burrito on this sunny day.

It is important for Wilson to keep up on his studies as he is an active student preparing

to graduate in May. Wilson religiously spends at least two hours a day doing homework and

studying for upcoming tests and quizzes.

In addition to his other activities, Wilson also enjoys playing video games. Wilson plays

sports games with his friends but his favorite game is NHL 13 (surprisingly not a football game).

A major portion of Wilson’s day is going to the gym to maintain his physique. As seen

here, Wilson works hard with the “lace roller” to be sure and keep a toned midsection for the

upcoming beach season. Wilson generally works out two hours a day and says it keeps him

sane.

After a hard workout Wilson enjoys sitting back and enjoying a beer in the recliner in his

room. Wilson’s favorite beer is pictured here, Labatt Blue. Wilson said that this “is absolutely

my favorite part of the day. After a full day of work, play, and the gym it’s important to find a

little me time and that is how I do it.”

Part of being a good roommate is helping out with chores around the house. Wilson

does this by cleaning the dishes most nights of the week, as seen here. Wilson believes the

separation of chores is what keeps such a good and positive environment alive in his

townhouse.

An individual chore that Wilson must do is laundry. Although he doesn’t normally wear

clothes, he does occasionally wear outfits that need to be cleaned.

After a long day of work and play Wilson retires his sunglasses and gets into bed.

Wilson tries to get a full eight hours most nights but is not always able to due to his early class

schedule. By the time Wilson is done with his daily activities it is usually around midnight, so

eight hours are not always a possibility. It is important for him to get rest so he will have

enough energy to go through all of these again tomorrow.
