epiphanies and thoughts
Well it is been a while so lets get started, First thing first. I am not going to lie I have been lazy for the past 4 weeks of school. I have been having a great ball and now I must pay the consequences. I realize that I have so much work to do but at the same time so little time. I am now finally back into school mode and I need to spend more time studying instead of playing Cod and shitting around. But that is all going to change, I finally found my groove again that I have lost over winter break. So there is no stopping me now, hopefully I can get a 3.5 gpa at least this quarter. I also realized how close I am to the real world, where I would need to work 40 hours a week. I feel like that college has been a lot faster for me because I went to community college and switched schools. At both schools, I only get to spend two years compared to going straight to college and having 4 years which feels relatively longer. Even though I survived my first fall quarter I realize how close I am from graduating. This makes a major importance for me to find a internship this summer and now I have a new goal in mind. Back in community college my goal was to get the fuck out of Ohlone, now it is setting myself up with a job in the end. I finally found another thing to work really hard for and I am happy to finally realize it now than later and be totally screwed. Even though I only been here for a few months, I finally am feeling I am getting the most I can through college. Most of the people here are great, they are very open and nice. Well may be I been lucky and I have been meeting the cool people but I have encountered a few people who are off but whatever, if they want to act like they have 10 sticks up their assses then they will have almost no importance to me. I been playing intramural soccer and basketball and I have finally somewhat analyzed what is considered the in “thing” for most people, basketball. Through my observations, I have analyzed that a lot of people revolve around the sport basketball. Almost most of the people who I have met play basketball, or at least know a huge amount of information about it. I hate to say this but a good amount of girls go “goo goo ga ga” over the fact that someone can play really good. haha I wish this was the fact for soccer, but I realize if I want that attention and recognition from playing a sport I would need to go to any other country besides here. Because soccer is the most played sport in the world!(besides USA) but it is growing indeed. But in the end, I would never give up the skills I have obtained from playing soccer for basketball skills any day. I love the game of soccer so much, its not the fact of how many points you score. But really it is the process of getting that goal. The beauty of the game lies in the fact that you work so hard and produce if even one goal which is much more meaningful then 10000000000000 points, but hey that is my opinion. Back to intramural I think i have the most fouls accumulated by one player I average about 4-5 fouls a game. What can I say, I seriously feel that basketball is a pussy sport compared to other physical sports. The physical contact is so limited it is like playing with a bunch of little girls that the rules say you can touch them but really when you do it ends up in a foul. I know I am bad mouthing basketball and it is a good sport. There is a reason why so many people play it and why it is one of the most popular sports in America. It is just the fact that I am so use to much more contact that sometimes I am disappointed of how much physical contact I can do in the game. but hey thats life, and you just got to live with it and play by the rules……………….most of the time.
