| This entry really has no point, but I really wanted to post because yesterday, my day was going along really regular and then bam right before I went to bed.. something really cool happened and then I smiled. I really didnt want to leave this day without an entry. I've already been to 2 knicks games this year. 1-1 so far.. which means the knicks are 0-6 when i'm not at the game. While on the train ride, I read a book for pleasure, this is rare. I haven't read that many books for pleasure in my life and this one isnt even really for pleasure.. its cuz my mom really wants me to read it. I've decided that I will read it whenever I go to a knicks game, so if i wanna go to a game I gotta read this book. That is how I complete things I don't wanna complete. I associate it with something that I love doing and a-la-kazam it gets completed. Even though very few people read this weblog, I still don't want to reveal the book I'm reading, dunno why I'm ashamed of reading this book. Even when I'm on the train reading it, I dont want the strangers to see what I'm reading. Dunno why, its not a bad book. It cant be bad because as previously mentioned, my mom wanted me to read it and Auntie Gloria only likes that which is holy. Anyways, the book I'm reading also inspired me to write this entry. When I was actually reading the book, I was not going to follow its advice, but then that cool thing happened (mentioned above) and I took it as a sign that I should do it. | | |
| Last night, around 8pm, I felt a fever coming on. I went to bed at 11pm and woke up with the anticipated fever at 3am. I woke again at 9am, the fever was gone, and I went to work. Tea made from chinese grass makes you invincible against pathetic american germs. | | |
| I had one of those great days yesterday. The kind of great day that would have made me happy for somewhere between 12-18 hours a few years ago. Before I get to my point, I'll share my day, just to develop my character a little more. Speaking of character development, movies don't do it enough anymore. It pisses me off. I'm so pissed off, I actually fall asleep.. from the boredom caused by watching the movie. Anyways.. I started my day by going to work, I got a decent amount of stuff done. Which is actually perfect because I feel no stress, yet I'm productive. I even had time to go to the gym during lunch. I did a crossfit (timed work out) because thats the best thing to do when time is limited. I love going to the gym because I'm stronger than 99% of the people I see there and the 1% that are stronger than me, out weigh me by atleast 50 pounds and even then.. they are barely stronger than me.. I wont even lie, sometimes I see some huge dude grunt through a few sets of whatever.. and when he's done I do exactly what he just did with ease pretending like it was part of my workout.. then i go on with my business. It's just something I like to do because I'm a meathead that hates meatheads. Anyways.. I completed a pretty difficult workout in like less than 18 minutes and I went back to work. After work I went to the knicks game at MSG. Not only did the Knicks win, my visit to the city was extremely efficient. I got to the train right on time and I caught the train back to NJ with no wait time. While on the train, I read like 60 pages of this book I've been meaning to read for a while. But wait there's more. I even got hallal before the game, and got to my seat at the game during the national anthem. Did I mention the knicks won? Still not done. Because I caught that train back to jersey, I also made it in time to watch the 9th inning. Even though the yanks lost, I'm actually happy. Id prefer more baseball and a win in NY. Jeter wanted it that way in his heart as well. And for the record, even if Jeter grounds into a DP in every at bat for the rest of his career, he will still be the greatest Yankee I have ever seen play. Okay back to my point. Yes, I will continue to try to get smarter and stronger everyday, but I know all these worldly gains are a drug with diminishing returns. A few years ago, I would have been happy for 12-18 hours, but now it only makes a happy for a few minutes. I'm not even mad about that. God gave us drive and ambition so that we can experience him fully and to enjoy him and his creation fully, but we twisted it into something totally wrong.. we made his gift to us "God". I'm gonna do my best not to twist it anymore.. The giver is God..not the gift. | | |
| I've been spending a lot of time lifting weights.. even more than normal for me.. and also eating a lot of protein.. once again more than normal.. and practicing for an upcoming football game. I still don't feel that ready for the game because of lack of preparation and devotion to fundamentals. I just havent been able to get enough reps in real situations which for me spells disaster. As much as God has blessed me with the talent known as dilligence and drive.. he has equally deprived me of being able to do things right the first time. I'll go into the game with low hopes and probably come back with mediocre results in line with my expectations. Anyways, my body and my hands feel really good these days. Like really really good.. best shape of my life good.. it also feels like it transfers to every facet of my life.. which i really like. i'm going to attribute this to doing a lot of sit-ups, pushups, and pull up.. everytime i see those commercials that say doing a lot of sit ups is useless. i get mad.. doing a lot of sit ups is great.. everyone should do it everyday.. hundreds or even thousands a day. every additional one executed adds to your life.. i dont know where im going with this entry.. but i guess i'll just move on.. to what? i dont know.. nothing else is coming to mind. im thinking i should read more and learn new stuff. my meat headiness has left me feeling kinda dumb.. although i enjoy being a meat head, i would rather be a scholar.. because people like scholars.. so i guess thats the point of this entry.. to remind myself.. to get smarter and stronger everyday. | | |
| I had one of those mornings... where you wake up and your just like eff today. By the way, I've been cursing a lot lately.. and whenever I fall back into potty mouth.. i love it.. like fereal i love it. I love to curse. Everything sounds more impactful with profanity.. oh well.. I still know I shouldn't do it. So once again. I better watch my tongue. Okay back to the point of this entry. I had that feeling this morning, but I decided to not take the easy way out. I'm glad I did it cuz today went better than expected. The VP made a surprise visit and caught me .. dun dun dun.. working.. so there we go +1. There was some baller breakfast in the conference room. I'm always down for free food especially on a rainy day when i dont want to leave the office for lunch. +1. Then to top it off, I had some meaningful interactions today. Completely unexpected stuff that really lifted my spirit. +1 Much needed because its been hard for me to get up for anything lately because I am void of purpose. | | |
