Wow...it's been a while

So amidst all of the hustle and bustle of my life recently, I haven't really been able to post much. However, I feel like a lot has happened. Baseball spring games are getting going which means the regular season is coming up fast. That also means it's almost time for my yearly 4 or 5 fantasy baseball leagues. Get excited. I mean...you don't have to if you don't want but I'm going to with or without you.

Only one more class left today and week 8 of the quarter is complete. That amazes me how quickly it's gone. After this week, we only have 2 more weeks and then finals. Yikes!

American Idol is kind of a let down for me this year. I'm still watching each episode but I'm definitely not drawn in like I have been. The new formatting they have for the show really isn't very dramatic and is extremely predictable. However, 24 is living up to it's full potential. I'm so glad it's back. The Bachelor is picking his winner this week so that is gonna give me a few more hours in my week once that is done. I've also started to watch Demitri Martin's new sketch comedy show. It's pretty entertaining and I get several laughs a show from it.

Grad school stuff should be finalizing any day now so that is a big relief. Now I just have to make sure I pass my exam in June. Gotta start studying now.

One final thing that I've learned this week is that a great way to lose some weight is to get an ulcer on the inside of your tongue. It makes it darn near impossible to eat without being in pain so you just avoid those urges. Sorry if that is kind of gross...but it's not lunchtime yet so you'll be ok.

That's all for now. Gonna go enjoy the warmer weather in case it disappears abruptly again.

Headed home

So since I have an exam tomorrow, I'm procrastinating right now writing a new blog entry. I'm just so bored with this class that I don't even care anymore. Add that to the fact that I get to go home tomorrow right after my exam and you can see why I'm not focused. I'm definitely not as nervous for this interview as the one at GSU. I'm more excited than anything. I am dreading the intense amount of driving and soccer camps and other work I need to get done this weekend though. I guess this comes with it. Back to work.

Drumroll please.....

So after much deliberation with those closest to me, I've decided I am going to decline the offer to Georgia Southern and will pursue my Master's degree at the University of Missouri next year. It was a very difficult decision, but after weighing the most important factors, Missouri is the right choice for me and my future. While I am going to miss spending my days in sunny Georgia and being an hour from the beach, I think this is the best decision and I'm very happy with why I've chosen Mizzou. Now I just have to call GSU Monday to let them know. I'm excited for what the future has to hold.

Ouch...that hurts!!

Life just hit me in the face today...I got an offer for a graduate assistantship position at one school and was told I rank very high at another school. That's great. The problem lies in the fact that I have to decide on the one school by Monday. What to do....what to do? I'm so confused right now. Hopefully a phone call tomorrow will help me out. I'll post more when I know more.

Super game

What a finish to the Super Bowl. I was definitely on the edge of my seat during most of the game. That was for sure one of the best games I've seen in my lifetime.

Way to represent The Ohio State University Santonio by winning the MVP. You the man.
