bum

im in a kind of limbo right now between bumming and looking for jobs. so far, ive had to resort to almost desperate measures by asking my last employer if he had any work for me and thinking about applying to a restaurant as a waiter. i suppose i could just devote all my time to studying for my actuary exam, but honestly, with everyone else working i feel guilty just doing that. gotta find a job...

they call me loso in case u dont know so

fridays should be optional work days, cause rele who works 100% on fridays? who works 100% on any days actually? the past 2 hours ive been here, ive done maybe 30 minutes of legit work. TGIF.

i havent played frisbee since last weeks MCUDL, and that was barely for 8 points. work is definitely not sympathetic towards my frisbee pursuits, and it sucks that by the time i get home, any type of pickup/summer league game is already over. next week, goin down to CT for a round robin scrimmage. i need all the ultimate i can get.

lifted with blase two nights ago and im still feeling the effects. fuk he pushed me hard. it amazes me that people can push themselves that hard every night. my tummy just grumbled.

i had these lychee gummies that i bought from the hong kong supermarket down in chinatown. i finished them fast cause they were so good. i gave them to some people in the office...i hope this makes me a hero.

gonna be a long day

at work. i dunno how to feel about this internship anymore. at first i thought it was pretty good cause i learned some things, but now i feel like my time can be better spent studying for the act sci test at home and i really need to study for that shit. that shit is not easy. now i hate commuting to work and i dread it all the time. it actually makes my summer shitty. my ideal situation would be to, of course, have an actuary internship at some insurance company, but since i know thats impossible, right now im just trying to get some admin. job to make some money. all im gettin here is a travel stipend, though the unlimited metrocard is awesome. i cant really judge how much the experience here is going to help me either because im definitely not going to work for an executive search firm in the future for my field of study. lookin foward to tomorrow (my day off).

Lifting needs to be done.

Pronto. started work yesterday and so far, its been very good. the only issue i have with it is that i hope im learning things. i really dont know how much of what ive been doing is going to help me with wat i will be doing. really, i would not complain at all if i got fukin paid. its an unpaid internship, but they do give me a travel stipend and a unlimited metrocard which is sweet, but honestly, such a big, bureaucratic firm can definitely afford atleast a small sized stipend for me. there are 3 other interns, all of whom i think dont get paid. one of them is basically there jus to be a bitch, which i feel kind of bad about. the other one, a girl, seems pretty smart and me and her basically share the bulk of the work. the office itself is really nice, including the people. and i have a pretty balling ass desk and cubicle.

last night went to korean bbq with danielle, maygen, and peter. pigged out. i dunno how to eat korean bbq but still enjoyed it. on the way out, the hostess said "bye" to me in korean, which i tried to say back in korean, but it was misconstrued as "sit down". afterwards, we had bing soon which was da bomb. slept over maygens.

six flags last sunday was awesome. best six flags trip so far. at first we got there kinda late around 12ish, which is probably prime time at six flags so it was pretty busy. first ride was superman, which had 45 min line. not bad not bad. all the rides afterwards though had like a 20 minute wait tops. we rode nitro twice, dark knight, that log ride, batman, bizarro, and some others. kindga ka and el toro were closed. wow, six flags, how r ur two best rides gonna close on the same day. afterwards i played thast 3 pt shootout game and OWNED. i won a knicks banner.

work has been pretty boring so far. mcudl tonight. i holla.

livin's easy

so far ive gone to lifetime only twice. i feel like i lost the motivation and drive I had last year to work out. now when i go to the gym, i just do it cause i force myself to. also cause we're paying $300 a year for family membership and i aint wasting that shit. first time i went i was so sore afterwards that i needed atleast a 2 day rest. last week i worked out with blase and he basically pushed me to work out even though i was in no mood to. lifting is ass. but im still gonna keep doing it.

last monday was my first practice with crafty in a while. more generally, it was my first time playing frisbee in a while. all ive been doin concerning ultimate lately, is watching it, which has taught me one thing: playing is so much better than watching. i dont wanna be one of those old alums or players who lost all their skills/talent and resigned himself to coaching or watching frisbee games. practice overall was decent. it was rele hot in prospect park and me, kahyee, sach left 3 hours early to be 20 minutes late.

Summer '09

im back baby.

1) internship (ive had 5 opportunities, just need one job)
2) crafty (its gonna suck so much commuting to the city)
3) MCDUL (rutgers machine loves me)
4) gain 15 lbs (157 now, goal: 170-172)
5) lift 3-4X a week at lifetime (<3 the 24 hour service)
6) study for actuary exam (i must pass my first exam before recruiting season)
7) catch up on naruto/bleach (i can do definitely do this one)

hill sprints at the high school

during junior and senior year of hs, i remember i could do at least 8 hill sprints and be ok. after 2 years, i cant do 4 without being almost puking.

fresh prince of bel-air

Jazz, in response to the question of whether or not he will accompany Will, "speaking...hypodermically..."

no, but seriously i need to 4.0 this semester

ya seriously i need to 4.0 this semester

i need to 4.0 this semester

i need to 4.0 this semester

its the remix to ignition

hot and fresh out the kitchen. i gotta say, having a cast on for 4 weeks on my arm was one of the most annoying experiences of my life. i couldnt write, type, or play any sports. those 3 activities themselves take up like 50% of my time. it was hard to even like wipe my butt with my left hand or put on clothes. im so glad im not a cripple, no offense to cripples. but seriously, i dont think i could last a year without going crazy. im gettin surgery to get the pins out of my pinkie in 2-3 weeks. this whole thing is costing my a fortune, even with insurance. after the surgery and 2-3 more weeks i should be about 100%, which by then, fall season ultimate will already have ended. my right hand is free right now and goddamn it feels so good. the doctor actually gave me a splint to wear but its painful to wear so i dont. i took two midterms last week. man i hope i do well on them. if i dont, imma go loco. ESTA LOCO. i kinda miss jersey right now. for some reason i like jersey in the fall

updates

i felt like updating today so i will. schools started and ive rele become used to nyu life- to the point where i actall;y enjoy it here. playing with crafty has been a blast. playin in club, i dont feel confident at all sometimes. i even dropped the disc a couple of times, something ive never experienced in hs or college. but overall i think i became a better player, or atleast a more useful one. crafty also made regionals , placing 3rd at sects, where i also broke my finger rele badly. im in a cast now but mite get surgery next week. im also typing this whole entry with one hand which is a bitch. ive been attending all my classes which i think is an accomplsihment. ibetter get good grades.

olympics

ive been spending too much time watching olympics. im not rele sure who to root for when china goes against usa, which happens very often in alot of the events.

less than a week till school. aghhhh

she move like da boss

lately ive been swimming alot more instead of lifting. i think this week i swam three times and lifted once or twice, kinda forgot. swimmings more of a complete workout and the feeling i get afterwards of exhaustion is great. i feel accomplished after that. im a horrible swimmer though. i only have about 8 more days till i leave for nyu. part of me (the bigger part) wants to stay here in jersey where life is so damn easy. i have no worries besides work but other than that, my days are always open and carefree. the other part of me wants to go back to nyu to see the people i miss, mostly maygen. nyu life is so different from my life here that i feel like im not ready to go back yet. ive jus started to fully enjoy my summer and now i gotta go back.

talk like a boss

break

i think im going to try to play as little ultimate as possible the rest of this summer and fall. i need some time to fully heal my ankle and my left wrist which has gotten rele bad. i cant do a push up now cuase of the wrist pain.

todays workout was ok. i need to start some more core exercises. damn i hate those.

only two more summer weeks left. i actually dont wanna go back to nyu. summer life is so chill and carefree.

exhausted

yesterdays summer league game pissed me off because 1) the others teams girls dominated our girls and 2) they didnt respect them so they poached the lanes.

i finally got caught sneaking into warren racquet. damn that place was nice, i wish i could stay there.

lost to orange

it was lame. i couldnt even see the disc on the last point. it was like 9 PM.

i snuck into warren racquet again. i swear those people dont even care if ur a member or not. this time i just walked right past them. i did the same workout as last time except no abs. damn they were sore from that last workout. i wish i could keep the increase in muscle when/after i work out. i feel like i lose all that afterwards.

8 reps X 3 = dumbbell press 45 lb eahc
6 reps X 2 = shoulder 35 lb
8 reps = shoudler 30 lb
8 reps X 2 = seated press 120 lb
8 reps X 2 = shoulder lifts 15 lb each
8 reps X 3 = incline dumbbell press 35 lb each
"21" X 2 = 40 lb bar
8 reps X 3 = shoulder machine 90 lb
8 reps X 3 = fly press 60lb
8 reps X 3 = triceps 65 lb

new workout schedule

tuesday - YMCA lift, skylands
thursday- YMCA lift, skylands
friday- YMCA swim
saturdayORsunday- WRC lift

im going to try really hard to adhere to this schedule. i have to lift 3X a week and swim once.

first day of work was decent. the thing about working fast and efficiently is that when i do, my boss gives me more work, so i usually work at about a 40% rate.

man i rele wanna work out.

G5 G5

damn i cant help but like that jesse mcartney song. im actually not looking foward to going back to school. i realized how awesome summer is. ive basically been chilling with friends, playing sports, and eating all summer. the thought of work has not even entered my mind. my internship was pretty chill too and i actually had fun some days. i start my first day of work tomorrow and i know that will prolly be chill too. i dont even remember how life was like at nyu. i remember alotta walking around.

day

i sneaked into warren racquet club today to work out. there are a ton of workout machines and like 4 separate rooms to filled with dumbbells, treadmills, machines, etc. the only problem is that some of the machines r so damn old. theyre clunky, rusty, and look like contraptions from Saw. i had a pretty good workout though
