As it comes to an end
Sadly, after a week off from school, i have nothing exciting to write about! A week spent picking up extra shifts at work during the day and writing papers at night. A week with sporatic and spontaneous trips to the beach (an activity that can be done at any giving time during the year in Florida) with friends is about as exciting as it got for me.
Living in Florida is like living on one long never ending boring ass spring break. It's always hot, it's always sunny and as soon as it hits 65 degree weather, people find their way out to clearwater and st. pete. So, this year i decided not to drive to Daytona for the week or spend the weekend down in Miami like previous years. The decision was more so based on my financial situation, but over all was a mutual decision between me and my wallet.
Im not knocking spring break at all, no that's the last thing i would do. In the words of Asher Roth, "I love college." College is the grasp of time that falls between the complete freedom of childhood and the dreaded responsibilities of Adulthood. So go out there and get f***ed up on wednesday nights for a dollar and party every thursday night when ladies get in free and enjoy every single milisecond of it because when it's over it's over. Fortunatley i made some extra cash running up and down a parking garage all week, and saved up enough to hopefully fix my car by april. I hope everyone enjoyed their break and welcome back.

A shark Never Sleeps
The name of an autobiography written by Drew Rosenhaus, Terel Owens "super agent," that describes the man very well.
As most of us know, T.O has now created bad blood in his 3rd NFL team and has been cut once again. This time from the Dallas Cowboys. Apparently there isn't a Quarterback in the league talented enough for Mr. Owens. But this story is not about T.O, no. We all know abut Terrel and his bad attitude, amazing talents, ideal physical shape and his forever running mouth. This blog is about is agent Rosenhaus.
This guy is a genious. Who knows how he does it but he always seems to get the leagues least wanted reciever a job, and with a raise on top of that. According to FOXSPORTs writter Mark Kriegel, Rosenhaus was able to find T.O a job in Buffalo WITH and 800,000 dollar pay raise, not even 72 hours after being cut from Dallas. RosenHaus worked the same magic nearly 4 years ago when T.O was cut by the Eagles, landing him a spot in Dallas 4 days later at 3yr/$25Mill.
Buffalo essentially has nothing to loose signing T.O. i mean if he does great and has a break out season the sky could be the limit. And if not o well they suck anyway.

Who's side are you on?
Born in New York, favorite team growing up was the New York Mets, lived in Miami, educated at the University of Miami, and is currently payed by the New York Yankees (and couple other American teams), and despite all these American statistics Alex Rodriguez chose to play for the Dominican Republics national team a few years ago. This may not be important to anyone’s life or to sports in general but since A-rod has been in the news lately I thought it was interesting that this year he will be playing for the United Sates, which only makes sense to me honestly. You were born and bread here, educated here and you making your living here (10 year $275 mill most in MLB history) it’s only right that you show some loyalty to your country and play for the team.
What does anyone think of A-Rod since his steroid controversy? Is he still the greatest Baseball player to play the game? Are all of his many accomplishments still holding weight or do they mean less now that we know he juiced up and had advantages? Just curios to know your opinions.

Driving + Texting = CRASH!!!!
I forget who's blog I read earlier in the semester about that unique breed of drivers who feel the necessity to multi task behind the wheel. I think it was in an in class assigment that we had to correct actually, but that's besides the point. What I am trying to get at is that my girlfriend belongs to that breed and tonight i suffered the consequences of her distracted actions.
Im sitting in the library passing time waiting for my 6:00 class to start when I recieve a phone call from what sounded like a danzel in distress. Sobbing, chocking and crying is all that i could make out on the other end of the line. After repeating "hello baby" almost 5 times, I finally heard from what i could make out through the tears and sobs, "Baby....(sob sob)....mad....(sob sob) your car!" Though i didn't hear a damn thing she said i just put one and one AND one lol together; she has my car, she can not drive, and she is balling. She got in an accident.
At first i was panicing because i thought it was major and i knew she also had my brother in the car, but after talking to her and eventually talking to my brother, who was extreamly calm like he always is, i realized they were fine.
My brother had to speak on her behalf becasue she couldn't controll her crying. Basically she rear ended a SUV during rush hour. My car being a civic ofcourse got smashed and the SUV (literaly guys no joke) walked away with nothing but surfacew damage, not even a dent!
Well come to find out that the reason she ended up driving my car into the back of an SUV is because of a CELL PHONE. SHe was replying to an incoming text and while she briefly looked down, traffic had come to a stop and consequently she couldn't stop in time. It only takes that 1 second of diverting your time from the road to something else to end up in an accident. Thank God that nobody was hurt, but this is just another testimony on how dangerous it is to text and drive. It left me carless.
