It's almost time for the holidays

What's up
I just realized how close we are to the holiday season!
it really is the best time of the year
everyone is back from school
people are just generally happier (probably cuz they know that they're getting a gift)
the only thing i dislike about these times is the traffic that occurs everywhere i go
but besides that
it's the beginning of a new year
yes, i know for me the new year started when i graduated from school and got sucked into the real world
but i'm gonna go ahead and wait for the new year to officially consider myself an adult

i guess thinkin about
i have many things that i wanna do from here until next year

1.) Find a job
This one i don't really care for, but for my parents sake, i feel i should, just so my parents don't have to keep answering to those dummies who constantly ask them if i've found a job yet......

2.) Find a hobby
I've realized that video games can only go so far
I refuse to learn any more chords for the guitar
so that leaves me with nothing
i will make that something into nothing

3.) Try to zero in on what i want to do with my life
My goal in life is to be a principal
But in order to become a principal, i must become a teacher
so that is what i'm thinkin about workin on rite now
P.E. teacher seems ideal yea?

4.) Work on my shoulder
My shoulder has been giving me problems for the past 2 years
something is wrong with my rotater cuff
as well as the ligaments around it
but luckily i am some kind of robot and i can still move it
i refuse to do nothing about it
i will figure out a solution

5.) Visit Tech more
I visited my alma mater this weekend
it was one of the best decisions that i've made in a while
it was so good to see my kids again
it was also amazing to hear Pastor Q speak again
that man is a legend in my books
even though i didn't go to a hokie game or experience home place
it was still one of the best times, probably cuz i got to hang out with a lot of awesome peeps

and lastly
6.) I want to become a legend
My whole life, i've been nothing but basically worthless
no more
whether it be a football legend, ping-pong legend, cursive-writing legend
whatever
i want to become awesome at something, i think it'd be pretty cool to be able to be do something that's pretty amazing.
iono
we'll see what happens

so the Phillies won the World Series
good for Charlie Manuel
he deserves it
the Phillies have waited a long time, not 100 years long, but still long
i really hope the cubs never win
they've become so consumed with the "curse" that they've really come to believe that their team is cursed
that's why they don't try harder in the playoffs
they don't have the heart and mental game to push themselves to another level, because in their minds, the curse is bigger than their team, which is stupid and foolish
and for that
the Cubs will forever be losers in my books
At least the Red Sox fought hard when they played to break their "curse"
they constantly came out and said that the team was bigger than any curse
i hate the sox with a passion
i hate them more than i hate sand
and i am a man who truly hates sand
but i can't knock their hustle
Yankees for life

went to a wizards game tonight
we really really really need Gilbert
blatche will be solid
so will Caron (as always)
antawn will be streaky
my guess for the championship.. realistically? i think it's gonna be the celtics again
i don't think KG and PP are players who will be satisfied with just one
they're like kids who have just had candy for the first time
it was sweet and delicious
now it's time to gorge and get fat
so to speak

i have saved the best for the last
the redskins have looked pretty solid to this point in the midseason
our schedule looks interesting for the 2nd half
many difficult home games, but games that we can win
i believe that 3 teams from the nfc east will make the playoffs again
will one of those 3 be dallas?
who knows?
i do
they WON'T
holler

people wonder what i do with all this free time that i have
i think
honestly, i think a lot
about random crap
but i also have come to realize a lot of things

my family freakin rocks
yea they give me grief about finding a job, but really, they've been pretty patient and understanding
i really am thankful for that
my sister has been helping me like crazy to find a job as well, she's pretty cool i have to say
my parents have been MAD calm about me finding a job, they're also very supportive, and make me do a lot of slave work, but no real complaints here
my grandma is awesome, i know she loves me, simply put
and last but not least, my homie baxter, he has been my best friend through all of this

while i've been on this "break," i've watched many tv shows and listened to many good songs
T.V. shows that all of you must watch:
Eli Stone
Chuck
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

no joke these three shows will change ur life

I've also seen the Guitar Hero commercial with Kobe Bryant about 10 times
it's hilarious
A-rod and M. Phelps kill it at the end of the commercial
haha
but kobe is, as always, the star

listen to:
John Legend- This Time
Kanye West- Coldest Winter
Lady GaGa- Starstruck
Jedi Mind Tricks- Godflesh
seriously anything by Amos Lee
Live Your Life- Royce da 5'9 version, so much better than T.I.'s version no joke

enjoy

and when the air is crisp and so cold it wakes you up cause it feels like slicing your lungs.
