You Think You Know Me...

You Think You Know Me BUT... you don't see the nights when I can't sleep
You Think You Know Me BUT... you don't see the pain behind my laugh and my attempt at a smile
You Think You Know Me BUT the effort I keep putting in day in and day out to make each day a success hoping that I won't fail
You Think You Know Me But... I am a mess, and just because I don't let you see the pain and hurt in my life
You See A resiliant and confident person .. but at times its just an act, its not me..
the question is who am I??? I am Sasha I am a brother, a son, a friend, a fighter, I have many different talents, not one defines me. I am always trying to make my friends feel my love and appreciation, even if I don't always receive it in return.
You See someone who you want to see .. but is that really me???
I wonder who I am and if I don't know who I am, how can sometimes a complete stranger know or think they know me better then I know me???? it makes no sense to me.
I know that one day the person that you see, and the person that I know that I am will combine and it will make for a great person, someone, with confidence, who can jump over any hurdle that is put in front of me, who will achieve the goals that I set for myself, I know that I will continue to be a good friend, brother, son.. all I need is to be able to put the image that people have of me and the person that I am and it will be a great person.. but when that will happen I wish I knew, but I am not going to give up without a fight, I have been fighting since the day I was born and though at times I have been knocked down, like this fall, when I thought the fight was knocked out of me, I still was able to get back up, and I will continue to do that till the day I take my final breath on this journey called life.
So you think you know me.. well how about we continue to join in this roller coaster called life and see where it may take us..

looking back on a year gone past

So lets see whats been up with me .. well as another holiday season draws closer to an end, I am looking back on the year that was. It started out with me loosing a job coincidentally on new years eve day of 2009 and then a month later I began working as free lance videographer which I still do to this very day. In April I resumed my umpiring for a 7th year in a row and also had a wonderful and exciting trip to visit my sister in new york city. I continued umpiring till mid july when I was part of my first theatrical production in over a year. I loved being part of the cast of 42nd St and also while doing that became part of another cast, this one for Barber of Seville. Both shows brought a new widening of my horizons and brought new friends and oppertunities into my life In October I had my 26th birthday and it was another wonderful time.. In November I took myself to see my first concert in over 5 years when Rockapella came to town. I also celebrated the one year anniversary of ...

Why Kevin Youkillis is the perfect blueprint for how Red Sox should handle Rafael Devers

photo credit: Cincinnati Enquier^.com Kevin Youkilis over 8.5 years with the Red Sox provided grit, determination, ^ a power-bat. Yet it was his defensive versatility that let the Red Sox get better. When the Red Sox drafted Kevin Youkilis out of the University of Cincinnati where he put together a .410/.549/.714/1.263 offensive stat line. Yet it was the fact that Youkilis also led the nation with 59 walks compared to just striking out just 21 times, that attracted then-GM Theo Epstein to draft the young third baseman in the 8th round of the 2001 draft. Youkilis would spend three seasons in the minors before reaching the M ajors during the 2004 season, where he would play a minor role that season during the team's championship run, appearing in 72 games that year , hitting .260 with 7 home-^runs driving in 35. Yet between 2007 and 2011 is when Youkilis would truly prove to be one of the best players in the game.  Over that five years, Youkilis would average 1...
Soo as we start the beginning of week #3 I have come to the realization that as much as I want to be like all the other guys who are here umpiring, I need to be able to listen to my body and adjust certain things to make it possible to actually umpire correctly.  My knee is still in one place the swelling has continued to go down but the soreness is still there. Hopefully by Tuesday or Wednesday I can slowly start ramping it up again and won't have lost too much time.
