Today was another day that I didn’t get as much accomplished as I would have liked to. I woke up early and managed to add some information to the Ultimate Frisbee club blog and take care of some of the information and work. Then I worked on a political issue presentation for social studies. Went to work, quiet day there. Then came home, decided to go outside and do some Ultimate training and throwing as it was beautiful out. Went and got some ice cream with my awesome teammate and captain from Team Wind. Since then I have been relaxing this evening and trying to get my head on straight for the week.

Tomorrow is one of those days where I wish I could go into school later or just take the day off. I want to just be able to wake up and tackle everything I have to do right when I get out of bed and not be interrupted by other scheduled tasks. Though I’ll just have to man up and power through it. I do have a lot to do and apologize the blog posts haven’t really been discussion worthy. Lately, just more of a journal of what I am doing. Ultimately I am just trying to balance all of my priorities and responsibilities right now. At the same time, I am trying to get back to training for Ultimate Frisbee and get back into shape. Balancing my schedule out has been the hardest task or utilizing every little bit of time I have.

I will have some big announcements coming up in later posts this week, but for now I just want to keep it simple until I have figured everything out. Been a long process of figuring everything out because of work and school, but tomorrow I am just going to sit down and power through. For now I think it may be best to closeout the night and get some rest. Take it easy everyone.

Today didn’t go quite as planned. Didn’t wake up early. Ended up sleeping in, but I have been exhausted from this long week. From there I went to work and hung out downtown. Tomorrow I will definitely be getting up earlier and taking care of all my stuff and rolling out a decent blog post with any hope. Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Today was spectacular. My Ultimate Frisbee team pulled off a great 17 to 5 win. We got out there and played our hearts out for 40 minutes and gave it our all and it all paid off. I’m extremely proud of every single one of my teammates for their efforts and hard work. Without them we would not be the strong team that we our and the time that they have dedicated to our team.

Tonight is going to be a nice short post. It is past midnight, I am exhausted, and need to get some sleep as I have my full day of classes tomorrow followed by a game of Ultimate Frisbee which I cannot wait for. Today my team had practice and I can honestly say that every single person who showed up impressed me. The club is completely a social/recreational game play club and yet these guys are willing to take time out of their days to come and give us two hours of solid practice and even exercise with us. It’s completely optional and not a single one of them backed down, they gave it their all. This is why I play the game, it is so exciting and pumps me up so much. Anyhow, I had a nice pasta dinner tonight after practice and have been taking it easy waiting for the game tomorrow.

Tonight I also attended a discussion on education reform and part of a follow up discussion on the film Race to Nowhere. If you haven’t heard about it before Google it up and watch the trailer. It’s a very controversial topic and something I would like to expand upon in future blog postings as well as Ultimate Frisbee stuff.

Anyhow, I’m out. Have a goodnight everyone and wish me luck for tomorrow’s great game! Team Wind 2012 LET’S GO!

Tonight I was considering skipping a post for two reasons. One, because I am extremely exhausted and really want to go to sleep. Two, because I wasn’t exactly sure what to write about. Even though I said I have a lot I can write about in yesterday’s blog post, I haven’t exactly outlined what I would like to post about yet or how I want to write it up. See, generally my blog posts are written on the spot with little to no planning. Throughout the day prior to a blog post I may take a picture or jot down small ideas to include, but I never really officially outline or draft my posts. Some of the topics I have planned I definitely want to have more thought put into them and not be as exhausted when writing them, because they are very important to me as of right now and I would like to get some nice discussions going on as well. Some of the best conversations, blog posts, or videos I have made or have seen from other people are completely done on the spot with no prior planning or script. While that will continue in some of my blog postings I would like to involve some planning as well so I can convey my thoughts and ideas clearly and generate better discussions.

It is about time that I get back to blogging. I’ve decided that each night I am going to try to write a blog post shortly before going to bed. I apologize for the lack of blog posts lately, but I have been extremely busy with life lately and haven’t had much time to dedicate to updating my blog. I was planning a rather long post for my returning post, but I decided that I would rather get something up now and not wait too much longer. I do have a lot of ideas for blog posts and topics though and am looking forward to discussing them. I also have a lot going on in life as of late, plus a lot coming up, so I expect that will give me even more to write about. So for now I’ll just post a short update about what I have been up to as of late and what is coming up.

Since I’ve redesigned my room I have found that it has helped me a lot in terms of productivity and getting things done. Specifically, having the three monitor set-up has helped out a lot. I have some video footage and pictures I will be posting up in the next few weeks of my office space. I’d like to do some reviews as well on some of the equipment that I got when I redesigned my room and office. It has been very helpful having this new set-up and has really helped me in the projects I have been working on and doing school assignments. I definitely look forward to being able to use this set-up to its full potential in some of the plans I have coming up.
