just a lil update

So lets see what have i been doing... I have been doing alot of shoots for the cable tv station i work for and that has allowed me to earn some money which is always good. I met with my job coach and that went well and during that meeting I got a call from the sub teaching and found out that due to not having a batchlors degree I will be unable to sub-teach which sucks.. so gonna keep doing at least 2/3 shoots a week and gonna hope that the local paper calls me back about that job and gonna look into talking with borders again about doing temp holiday help again.
as for my social life i have been doing well haven't really been out there much but i have begun talking with a wonderful young woman whom i have a lot in common with and someone I really have a great connection with and we both enjoy talking with eachother and there is a good chance that there could be something of substance in the future for us.

Soo today was a very light day. Had no control games or innings, but did have some time out on the drill field to get back into the habit of doing routine plays to get back into the swing of full umpiring.  Sadly I also started to realize how cutthroat this business can be.  Soo due to my injuries I haven't fully been at full health, as well as my other physical issues, have made my career has an umpire not the easiest of things to do.  I usually often in pain from my legs to my back and I do my best to push through it to continue to work my game, and due to the pain I may not look at athletic or graceful as other guys out there on the field, but I do my best.    One of the guys that I have gotten to know here at school, told me that sadly there have been a few guys that have snickered and made fun of me behind my back. He told me, not to worry about that, that the situation had been taken care of and that I should just focus on my game. To hear that a guy t...
Soo as we finished up week # 4 and start towards the home stretch, I am amazed at how fast this experience has gone.  I have waited over 3 years for this experience and to be on the fields working and learning and gaining experience that hopefully I will be able to use in order to become a better umpire, then I was before I came here.  Also getting to know and meet the instructors has been amazing. To personally get to talk with and get to know this guys that I have watched for years on tv and to just see them and talk with them has been a great learning experience.  As the guys have hammered into us, "Don't leave this experience with any regrets." I am definitely not going to do that. Even with my knee injury, I never stopped I kept fighting and learning and busting my ass to get back on the field, and I can tell everyone that I will not have any regrets when I come home, I will have left everything out on the field and will have made each and everyone of you that has...
When I think of who I am or look at myself what do I see...I see a man who every day wakes up hoping that that today will be better then last. I see someone who has been through soo much pain and heart ache that I wonder How I keep staying soo postive I see A fighter someone who will will continue each and every day to try and make myself a better person I see someone who still has soo much potential that I have yet to reach. I see someone who is a friend, brother, son, Why is it that when I look at myself I think that I am a failure??? why is it that I see someone who no matter what I do I am never satisfied or I think that I am not living upto all this potential I am scared of possibly never reaching my full potential. I am scared that I will always feel like I have underachieved I am scared I will not be the person that people hope I will be.I think that the lyrics to the Weepies song " Can't Go Back Now" fits what I am feeling "Yesturday when you were young eve...
