Thought on a Fathers Day

Simplified:
Since school has ended my life has been perfectly simple.  Wake up hang with the kids.  Go to work.  Come home and hang with the family....repeat.  It is a great feeling to have a clear mind in the evening and really be able to enjoy myself.  I know this next year will have it's challenges but I can't help but feel relief and excitement knowing that I will be judged by how hard I work and not by how much time I have to study.

Satisfied:
The Lakers are the 2010 NBA Champions.  That was a tough gritty game seven, and all the more enjoyable because of it.  I always say that I would rather watch a blowout so that I can relax and enjoy.  This was far from relaxing but there is exciting to see the Celtics get their hearts ripped from their chests. Satisfied to say the least.

Justified:
Ron Artest 2nd quarter Game 7 NBA finals
Ron Artest 3 pointer with 1 min left Game 7 NBA finals
Kobe Bryant  2010 NBA Finals MVP
Kobe Byrant more rings then Shaq
Kobe Bryant best basketball player on the planet

Nullified:
The Celtics and all their fans.  All the laker hating I had to endure for the last two months

Gratified:
To all my family and friend that have been there to support me and help me over the last 3 years of pharmacy school.  What would I do without all of you.

Vilified:
That ref that totally blew the call that caused the USA to not win their second World Cup game.  It was a horrible call that could cost the US a spot in the 16

Blog Odyssey Vol 1.1

This is an account of my weekly excursions into the blogosphere and beyond.

However I was reading a post at LA LA LA and soon realized just how talented she is. LA LA LA found an amazing video of imogen heap mixing a song as she sings it. It was crazy I honestly have never seen anybody do that before.

But Garrett Anderson a veteran of the team had a a career night going 4-6 with 2 home runs, one of them being a Grand Slam. On another note A-Rod has hit his 40th, 41st, and 42nd home runs of the year on us in the last two games. He is going to have the home run record and hopefully he will be on the Angels when he gets it.

Most Americans would want to get the hell out of Deans way, but not Kendra from Island Med Student. She is staying put and facing the storm head on. Will She Survive?

T-3335 Hours and Counting

So I'm looking at my countdown to Pharmacy School, it is currently at 140 days. When I first added the counter to my blog it was at 167 days, I can't believe that it has already been 27 days since then. I haven't really paid much attention to the count down until today. I pulled out my check list of things to get done before pharmacy school starts and now I think that 140 days might not be enough.

List of things to get done in the next 140 days
1. hep C shots
2. Get Financial Aid taken care of
3. Find a new place to live
4. Graduate from CSUSB
5. Go to Hawaii for three weeks
6. Find a decent day care for my daughter
7. Pay off the credit cards
8. Pass A&P
9. Move into new place
10. Get my finger prints done

There is a lot more but I'd rather not rewrite the whole list




Unfortunately for some of my classes I am heading to Las Vegas this weekend. I have several midterms coming up next week so I guess that means that I have to study during the week before I go. This however is almost impossible, because I have roulette on my brain and I can't get is out


Between watching my wife play or playing myself I can usually spend about 80% of the time I'm in Vegas at the table. To anybody who has not had the chance to go to Las Vegas I suggest going. It is well worth the trip and the cost. We like to go for short 24 hour trips since we only live three hours away. The drive is nice with little traffic, we get a lot of talking and catching up done on the way out which is nice. Sometimes during the middle of the quarter we are so busy the only time we see each other is when we pass Ava off




The Lakers almost pulled off an upset win yesterday, I was very stressed. I couldn't even watch the last few minutes of the game because I the Lakers jut fell apart and Kobe became ice cold and was make very poor choices on his shot attempts. I have not lost hope, actually I think I have gained hope. I think they could pull this off in 7 games and finally repay the dept from last year
Good Luck Guys

Kobe: Whats Your Beef



You know when people ask you who your hero/heros is/are, typically the answer is "My Mom" or "Martin Luther King Jr." for the obvious reasons. It all seems so cliche to me. There are a lot of people that influence me and that I have great respect for, however I have never truly had a hero until recently. Kobe Bryant is my first offical hero. He just scored an average of 56 points per game over the last four games. He is smashing Michael Jordans records and getting ever so close to Wilt Chamberlains seemingly God Like numbers. It is so exciting and powerful to watch Kobe score at will against double and triple teams. I am proud to be a laker fan and can't beleive I get to watch history happening every time I watch a game.

Kobe should be MVP, but guess what, it won't happen becasue there are still to many Kobe haters. Why are they so jealous?
