It happened. It all went down. I avoided jinxes, I wore the shirts, I was as much of a fan as any fan, especially one living outside of the normal range of their team's fanbase can be, but it still happened ( Read more... )

January?! I haven't written anything since January?! I feel a need to keep this updated still ( Read more... )

Break is ending tomorrow, and I haven't quite decided if I'm ready to go back or not. I think I'll be fine, especially because I'll be busy IMMEDIATELY, but my best friend is studying abroad in Poland and won't be back until the summer, so I'm now without somebody I spent every day with last semester. It's not missing home, and it's not disliking ( Read more... )

I'm finally home for break and it's been the greatest day even though I had to spend it for myself with my parents bein at work and my little brother being at school and all, but I really just used the time to defrag. I shelved a whole bunch of books (and I'm still reading too many). I spent time outside and played piano more than I have in ( Read more... )

I'm sitting here with my piano notebook in my lap. I'm about ready to drop Stella del mattino and I due fiumi and go on to Melodia africana I-IV. I listened to them on youtube and played along with it on the paper, and they're straight beautiful. I love how they go from shorter to longer and less complicated to much more emotionally involved.

I feel ridiculous for not having posted anything on here since April. I guess it's for a good reason though, since I've had RL to deal with and it's all been good. It's been a great summer so far. I've heard from people that I haven't talked to in months or years and it makes me so happy to know that all my family and friends back in Jersey are ( Read more... )

I should start with sports so that I can end more serious

Baseball -  The Sox are on the return. I don't care what anyone says. We're getting the kinks worked out, we're gonna be great. I can't be anything but optimistic at the moment. Papi's batting above the Mendoza line. That's all the good sign I need. The chemistry will come together. The bats ( Read more... )

Maybe it’s a function of me getting older, maybe it’s a function of me getting more mature, but things aren’t getting to me as badly as they used to.

I could preface this by saying that I’m a very quote-driven person. I have about 10-15 quotes by whoever taped up on my mirror and the adjacent wall in my bathroom. They go from Big Papi to Robert ( Read more... )

I should just say this is a sports blog because I don’t really talk about myself. But I will a little here.

Today was rough. It was just long. It was Monday coming back from Christmas break and I had no excuses whatsoever. I really tried to keep it together and think positive, like Shabbat’s coming! And on Saturday I’ll watch Joe Flanigan in a movie ( Read more... )

LIKE. I hate losing debates to people that I legit won and teaching bratty ass middle schoolers who are supposed to be super smart while their standard level compadres kick ass. So all I'm gonna talk about is sports :)

Baseball: So maybe we did become everything we hate. Maybe we are the Evil Empire 2.0. But there's this thing in sports called "eras ( Read more... )
