Oct 14th-Changing the Unchangeable

So far my college experience has been a crazy roller coaster ride. I would have to say the only dips and drops have been things that aren't directly related to college itself. I like my classes, my professors, my roommate, and my friends I have made. As for things not directly related to work or classes I would change a couple things that have happened. I would be more careful not to put myself in situations to get in trouble. Even though everything came out fine I wish I hadn't even been in a scenario to get arrested. I also wish I would have taken care of myself better and not allowed me to get as sick as I have with mono. Sharing drinks and kissing soooo many girls (just kidding) probably isn't a great idea. I think one thing I also need to change is time management. I try to utilize the time between class too much and not my several hours I have at night because I feel like nightly t.v. is so important. I need to really get my night time activity priorities straight. Other than a couple study habit changes and the things that really weren't in to much of my control I am content with my college experience up to this point. That being said I hope it just continues to get better and better each and every semester. 

Nov 7th-Communities and Schools :-(

As I sit here about to write this blog...I take a pause just to think

I think I will make this blog a poem, but I ain't a poet so I hope it don't stink

I have seven minutes to turn this in so maybe this isn't such a good plan

Forget it... I have made up my mind to do this if I can pull it off I must be the man

Communities and schools, such a disappointment, its what I call weak sauce

I was really looking forward to mentoring a student being looked up to like a boss

I have done it in the past and have always enjoyed it

I was really upset when our schedules just didn't fit

Even though I have a flurry of negative emotions not completing that goal

It didn't change my attitude or views of community service as a whole

When you are trying to make a big difference your going to have road blocks

You have to move on and find somewhere else to help out in the town of the gamecocks

I look forward to helping out the community in several other ways

And maybe I can get back to mentoring one of these days

Its 5 o clock and I hope I don't get graded down for being late

I had fun writing this even if it isn't so great

So look forward to you reading this melissa and jimmie

And ill see you on monday.....................................................

I can't think of anything that rhymes with jimmie

Nov 7th-Some things don't change...

Well, I don't know how I am going to muster up a 150 word blog entry here that is interesting to read. This is because what I wanted to be when I was young is the same thing as now so its hard to write about how or why that has changed. Also I have already written on this subject earlier about poker. Therefore I will just recap what I have said before. At four years old I was taught the game of texas hold em and ever since then I have wanted to master it and become a champion. To this day I still have goals set to follow this dream. I can give you an update since something happened recently that affects my path to the poker world. I took a huge hit (loss) to my poker bank account. I was only 500 dollars away from having the 10000 needed to enter the main event of the world series of poker until I had a bad night. I won't say exactly how much I lost but it is a significant amount that I will have to take time to win back. I have begun to win some of it back but im not back to 9500 yet. It was disappointing but I know that it is going to happen more than often in the poker career and is nothing to really sweat about. If poker doesn't work out or if it doesn't provide a full time job I want to go to law school following USC to become a sport agent. That has been a dream of mine for some time as well and I really believe I possess the skills needed to be a successful sports agent. I wouldn't mind being the next Drew Rosenhaus minus the stuck up attitude!
