Life is Beautiful...
So it's been a little while since I posted a journal. OK, a long while. I would say that I'm back for good, but I get bored easily and most likely will keep this up for a couple weeks then quit again. I guess we'll see.
Another year of college is winding down, and I can say with 100% confidence that I have learned more about myself this year than any other year before it.
I've learned that sports aren't really that important to 90% of the world. But to me, they are so much more than an interest or hobby. It is absolutely impossible to put into words what sports do for my life. Sports make me the happiest kid on earth, and they can also make me completely devastated. Sports are ALWAYS there to keep me occupied. My life could be going into a full-on downward tailspin, but when the 3rd week in March hits, all my problems go out the window for 4 days. In a wierd way that noone will ever understand but my father and I, I feel like when those 17 players step on the court or those 80 something bruisers hit the gridiron, that they're representing me. You probably just read that and thought "what the hell is he talkin about?" Well, to be honest, I dont give a shit. This journal is for me and when I look at it I know what I'm talkin about.
I've also learned alot more about my relationships with girls. Granted, I don't know much about girls, but I have realized that I never will and I should stop trying to "figure them out" now. From now on (at least I hope), I'm gonna come out and tell girls how I feel about them and that's that. I used to worry about how they will react or what they will say, but now I could honestly care less. If I like a girl, I'm gonna tell her. Then it's her turn. If she responds the same way, I'll know we've got something. If she does nothing, fine. These seem to be the most common responses I've gotten. Either reciprocation or apathy. I'm never gonna bite my tounge for a girl again. I'm going to tell her how I feel and see how she responds. Done are my days of ambiguity and confusion.
These are only 2 things I've learned this year, but those are probably the most important...
Goodnight.
And P.S.- If you are a girl and you feel a certain way about a guy, tell them. It's alot easier that way.
