It's been a while since i've been on here. nothing much has changed but i'm infinitely happier than i was a few months ago. and it's honestly thanks to someone i just met. it's funny how something so little can be such a big difference. I'm goin to Idaho in like two weeks. I'm so pumped! i can't wait to see Ian again. it's been 7 months since i've seen him. No homo. but i missed that guy. it's weird to think Idaho is going to be my new home... hopefully. It's sad that i don't know what else to write here. but things should picked up sooner or later.

What is a sport?
So I decided i wanted to hone the meaning of the word sport. As of right now it is defined as anything that requires physical prowess meaning anything that is a skill of sorts and requires training. I do not think that sewing is a sport nor baseball for that matter. So here is the new definition of sport.
1. Physical prowess must be obtained. (a form of physical fitness must be obtained as well, chess is not a sport)
2. There must be a way of scoring.
3. It has to be standardized. (meaning the way you score is the same anywhere you go in that particular league)
Let me clear things up a little more. Baseball is not a sport. How long is a major league Home run? my point exactly! it isn't a sport. (as defined by me) Neither is golf for that matter. now for those who are saying that not all basketball courts are the same everywhere you go or that you can play football on any size field are completely right but those games are not regulated by their respective leagues and are therefore classified as "pick-up" games and are not linked directly with that specific sport. Now if that size field or court were regulated, meaning were deemed appropriate by the said federation then it would be linked to that sport. For those of you who are saying you can play on different types of fields (Synthetic, grass, clay) it still meets the standardized scoring. a football field will always be a hundred yards from end zone to end zone, the free throw line is 15 ft away from the backboard so the system of scoring is standardized. I realize some of you will argue but it doesn't matter. this is my definition and nothing can change that.

So tomorrow is the start of my new life. I quit Jamba cause it sucks and im going to take a risk. Im going to try to give Music lessons and work for a guy in my ward passing out flyers. i dont know if i can do it i.e. have the motivation. Im going to try tho. It would deffinatly be my ideal work. exspecially if i got 8 students. 8x20 is 160 a week x4 weeks in a month 640, thatll be enough for my rent and stuff and with the bonus of the flyer thing, 11x15 (probalby) is 165 x4 660 so we got 1300 a month. that would be nice. i was gettin like 120 but working 25 hrs week with school... it was a lot. now i can do this on my own time. so thatll be way good. wish me luck!

A continual action
So, i decided to get one of these things for the following reason.
1- i enjoy writing what i think, or in other words... i like people reading what i think instead of listening, so basically im just really self centered
2-I dont like putting up a comment as a no named looser
3-I cant wait to put this thing to good use and trash that dirty little dog piko. Just kiddin Roger.
