I got accepted onto the school newspaper as the sports columnist for next year.

 

Two more finals to go and freshman year is over.

 

I plan on going to a few Yankee games this summer. I already have tickets for Mets-Yankees this Friday. My Yankee-fever is higher than it's ever been. The idea of not winning a World Series is so distant because all that's in my mind is last year's amazing run.

 

The idea of the Nets making the playoffs is also so distant. There's a significant difference in how I've handled the Yankees and Nets seasons lately. I feel like the fact that the Nets' season may hold real excitement is something that's being introduced to me for the first time.

I just signed up to play in a Sunday baseball league through September. I'm not sure how it's going to go, as I haven't played baseball regularly since I left Rutgers in 2005... But, it should be fun regardless.

 

I'll likely post weekly updates after the games in here, win lose or draw. Or Golden Sombrero :lol:

I am on a Matthew Good binge right now, that is all. Oh and my friends have a CD release party this Thursday, pumped.

So work sucks but I only have to be there until early September so whatever. Anyway on to some music. First I would like to thank xx. for recommending Memory Tapes. The album is awesome, and that is without smoking a j. All my friend smoke so I will def pass it on to them; a must listen for everyone reading this.

 

Another thing is I finally got one of the album I needed to check out this year in Versaemerge's Fixed at Zero and it is definitely very good. If i had to tell you what they are like, I have to use the Paramore comparison but it might be unfair, to Versaemerge. VE is less pop punk and is stronger technically. The other reason they are compared to Paramore is that it is headed by a female backed by an all male band. Check it out no matter what type of music you listen to. I could go on but I'm too lazy.

 

That is all for now, it seems like everyone I know saw Pavement, Band of Horses and Broken Social Scene tonight. Not my type of stuff but whatever. Good night OTR.

Didn't go to the game Sunday, didn't realize uniform pants weren't included, so I... didn't have any.

 

Might as well throw in softball results in here, won both games Monday handily, team is very good. Don't remember personal stats, hit a lot of singles though.

 

Split games tonight, the team is honestly not that good at all. Finished 4-5 with a 3-run homer, double, two singles and a walk... I think I had 5 or 6 RBI total. Threw the tying run out at home in the first game to end it.

 

This Sunday is making me anxious, I have a big feeling that I'm going to struggle. We'll see.

No golden sombrero, but still not great results. Finished the day 0-6 with a sac and a walk, both games went to extras. Won the first 3-2, lost the second 4-3. Played center field and the defense was like riding a bicycle. Didn't see the ball great at the plate, but I did make some solid outs, one to the warning track and a couple right at people. But, 0-6 is 0-6. Going to take work. Only struck out once, which is a slight upside.

 

Oh, got a sick blister too:

Felt good to be back out there. Going to feel better to work hard to get back where I was.
