A Week Of Fun

Whew! Well, within the past week has been some of the greatest moments this summer yet!
 
First, I have found out that my fastest serve so far is 93 m.p.h. Yeah, it's absolutely pathetic compared to what the pro's are smashing, but I think that it will get my foot in the door for the Iowa Games this weekend, which is also going to be a lot of fun. I hope to smash a 100+ m.p.h. serve at the games, wish me luck!
 
Second, this week working at our local swimming pool has been a blast! So much has happened and it's been one hell of a ride so far! It seems like this summer keeps getting better and better! I hope this fall school year will be very much the same as I will be living in an apartment with some of my best friends.
 
Third, I finally have one of the most prized items that I've wanted for a long time: The Apple iPod! I just configured and installed all the software on it and my computer and I'm loving every minute of owning it! I can't wait to use it. Oh, and did I mention that I have purchased a voice recorder to go with it? It's so cool! Hopefully, it can help me with taking notes during lectures. Maybe i can sneak some extra shut eye....hehe ;)
 
Tomorrow is the last day of the weekdays and I hope to have just as much fun if not more. I'm pumped and ready to go to the Iowa Games this weekend, I love my new toy, and I'm loving my job as a lifeguard.
 
What more could I possibly want??? This is the life :)

A Sense of Identity

As the last couple of days have past, I feel more at ease of the person that I am and will be for the rest of my life. The jealousy's and would-could-should have's gone because I am at ease with myself and believe that I have found another part of myself in this quest which we call life.

Each day since Monday has been a continuous increase in my spirits as my confidence in who I am becomes higher and I reach a sense of identity and self that I feel the weight from my shoulders has been taken off. Especially when it comes to relationships. I have come to terms that running after love is just a setup for disappointment and despair as you see the ones that you have feelings for are with other people. Although it seems like a loss, which it essentially is, I believe that it has let me realize that I should embrace the time of now, instead of wasting my time in what should-could-would have been. I want those that I care for to find their path in life and discover their life while I discover mine.

Who will be the one? I don't know, but I'm sure that we will find each other sometime in our lifetimes.

These are the times in which we must make a choice in who we will become for the rest of our lives.

As a side note, my quest for serving supremacy continues as I was stood up by a friend of mine who said was going to bring a radar gun to test my serve speed in tennis. I am going to guess my fastest serve speed to be around 120 mph.

More updates to come.........
