Word, man. Take some time to reevaluate. I think things will go into perspective after a little while. I can't imagine that all your classes and money have gone to waste. Search avenues at your school to get back in, or go somehwere else and transfer those classes.
Good Luck, you'll be fine if anyone would.

So it's Thursday night and I just got done with work. I had a footbag related dream last night and it's gotten blurrier and blurrier through the day so I thought I better post it before it's comletely gone. Basically there were a few footbaggers that I know and I think this all has to do with Nyj somehow. For some reason we were having some sort of contest of...balance and jumping... I remember there were teams and I was with my 295 crew of Jamie, Cap, and myself. Some of the most talented people EVER when it comes to odds and ends things. So what we had to do was like...jump as high as we could onto this thin box without falling off. Also the other event was something about walking up these small pedestals there were shaped like beams, basically really skinny stepping stones. So right before the event I was like, Oh man, you guys are all going down. Guys as in (Johnny S., Henry G., Tom K., and some other random footbag players.) So I flung my shoes off and threw on my pair of Nike Frees like I was the shit or something. I remember jumping on some random things and that's where my dream fades off... pretty odd huh ?
This week has been so lazy it's amazing. I don't have any schedule at all other than live. So I play Ragnarok all day long, go to sleep, wake up and play. And every couple days I'll come in to work to lead the aquatics class. I've been trying to think of different jobs or opportunities I could work to get me off my ass. I still do think I'd like to eventually do Physical Therapy. Small little bull shit tests have thrown me off and I don't think it's the wrong thing for me... Once I get to the work place, I love what I see. I love having the knowledge of the human body and how to help people get back on their feet. I fucking hate slow monotonous courses about things I don't really care for. I don't like listening to teachers who do not know how to teach well. I don't want to put blame on certain things, but that right there is what it is. I just have a hard time keeping my attention on certain things, but when it comes down to the actual work and such, I love it. Fuck Kathy. Oops, did I say that ?
Anyways , halloween is coming up and I'm putting a lot of work into my costume. I'll make sure to get some drunken pictures of hardcore partying and halloween antics. I was debating on coming out of my footbag low tonight and actually playing, but I think I'll just exercise. I really haven't played for like 2 months now or something rediculous. I've played twice I think in that span, so basically this is my time off. Shortly though I'm going to make a massive comeback and combine my exercise schedule with a more progress footbag routine. I want to get really ready for NYJ so I can climb shit faster, kick longer, and party harder

Remember those days in school where you had to write down everything you ate ? I think I'll do that for like, a week or two. Of course I remember kinda just makin shit up when the papers were do because I really didn't give a shit about things like that. I'm kinda curious to see in a general summary the amount of exercise and food intake.
So yeah, today I woke up with one intense dream. Finally I had the balls to run from the police, it was great ! I love having dreams that are crazy adventures. So let's see here what I remember. I woke up at a friends house and when I was ready to leave, my car was gone ! So we went for a drive and eventually got pulled over for one thing or another. The cop was huge, like really muscular and was very pushy, basically an asshole. So he says he's gonna give us a sobriety test and he gets out this blanket with a dot on it. I ask him a question and he just tells me to shut up and he'll do all the questioning. He basically wraps it around someones neck and starts choking them out and lets them go after a bit. He then starts pushing this old guy back towards a slight drop off of 15' or so. He just pushes him right off as if this were part of the sobriety test. I start slowly backing away cause there is no way in hell I'm takin a test like that. I start running up the hill hoping his cardio isn't as impressive as his pure brute strength. I start running away and just badmouthing him and police in general. He starts to throw rocks at me and I just tell him to get bigger ones, haha. He never hit me but he kept chasing a friend and myself. We had to jump into this creek and eventually jump off a waterfall (i don't like water).
Eventually we run into this house that seems abondon and quite scary. Some paranormal shit happens and we start to split. I really start to freak out about the time and having to get to work on time. I remember that daylight savings gives me 1 more hour. So for whatever reason my car is in this police lot... We had to run up there and it seemed almost like highschool except it was people being held against their will, not sure what facility that was. Anyways, they caught me and noticed I didn't have my name tag around my ankle so they were going to take me in. I knew they were gonna keep me over night...so I tried calling work, no reception !! I recruit a couple people to run and bust out before we go inside. We run like hell and they call the cops which immediately hop in their cars. I hop in mine and pull a quick 180 around something and lose them for a sec. let a couple pass by towards the interstate. I then floor it and take a right when I see more cops ahead, I cross the median and start the other direction and that's when I wake up thinkin it were like 5 PM and scared I was late for work...turns out it was noon. *phew*
Played again today. Played alright with a couple decent strings that gave me hope. I can tell my game has been on hold for a while. Trying to build back some more cardio and keep consistant with playing more often. After I played for a bit I exercised. So it worked to about 40 minutes of shred & 40 of lifting.

I'm just gonna post a couple of the highlights of Halloween. The costumes that impressed me. I woulda taken more pictures, but it seems I got quite intoxicated and forgot I even had a camera come the second party.
This costume was amazingly hard to get on, you don't even know.
All suited up, ready to go.
Fight Pose
Think big - from Doug Funny
Indi !
Sailor ?? Last year he was a friggen aborigine and made me laugh every time I saw him.
Tobias - analrapist- He actually made cards to hand out to people.
Success !
My friend's girlfriend, dressing up as him. It's deadon. If you can't see it, she also has the Little Caeser's sign that he holds,:lol:
I don't know why, but everybody always flips me off.
Look at the extension and form.

About dreams, I don't know what's goin on with them, but they're gettin wilder !! You know how most dreams when you get in a fight, you punch and it just doesn't really have any umph behind it, well, this was kinda the same...except the huge JUMPKICK !! Hahahaha, this was like a night or two ago so I won't get into it, let's just say I got into a fight with 3 guys and we got seperated and was told we were going to jail if this happened again on the mall property. Well, I saw them in a convertable in the parking lot, and I don't know if they said something or what, but I ran at them and did a fucking double straight legged kick. You know, the balls out, putting your body horizontal and keeping both legs straight...anyways, that's what I remember.
Footbag...great day !!! I just got done with a long day at work, 8-7, played footbag for like...1+ hours and then directly after started lifting and working on self body weight training. All I have left is hand stand push ups and dips. I've been working hard on those and I can now easily get 10 handstand push ups, if I push it, I might be able to get 20 without stopping. Also dips (for triceps) have gotten to 20 easy, and 30 if I push. Awesome ! I know I said I was gonna take the drinking down...and I have, but this weekend I'm invited to someone's birthday and I hear they do it right out there. Kegs, liquor, and lots of people. So maybe I'll take it easy..., but I doubt it. I'll try to stay sober, but I'm goin out there with my drinkin buddy, and friend all together, so it'll be pretty hard.
Oh yeah, my favorite online video is Vasek in Barcelona. I know it's an amazing video, but for some reason it really touched a nerve today. It was pure beauty and awe inspiring. I get done playing footbag and exercising and understand how tired my body is. I then watch Vasek and completely respect the level of play he's at. I don't care how much natural talent one has...he has put his hours, blood, sweat, and tears into footbag. Purely amazing. I have huge respect to all the veterans who have turned the sport into what it is, but watching vasek shred is just this whole new level... I think this weekend I'll take time to watch Raw Shred and stretch out before a session. Even though shred standards was much lower, there was still some amazing things being hit...and names I wasn't to aware of.
I'm tired...but gotta finish the 'Chicago Regimen'.

Haven't really made a video for a long time, but hey, I'm back in my basement. I have some room, and I think it's time for a small little snippet. I still do the same usual John combos so whoever reads this wants to see anything tricks / combos / yatta yatta / etc. List'm out and I'll see what I can hit without braking the lightbulbs above head. *cough* brad *cough*

Well, I had a session yesterday, actually 2 and attempted to film a bit with the webcam. Turns out that the quality is pretty shitty. Everything is a blur when I move so it turned out pretty crappy. I started editing it and rendered it hoping the render would be clear...wrong. So yeah, I hit the phoenix combo. The ss flail > eggbeater combo got me, I got to the last link and dropped it. I hit flail > eggbeater > flail > and for somereason went for flail again. Oh well, I tried !! I really liked that combo because the flip flail is very very difficult. So difficult I usually just stay away from it, but I felt it really helped skooling it.
I also went to my first redneck party last night. Crazy good time once I had a couple. The party was in.. a barn, haha. They had a keg and a half so we decided to bring over the octobong and show'em how we get down. Hooked that sucker up and hit it hard. Also had some jelloshots...my favorite form of consumption...yum ! I remember further into the night I was so drunk that this redneck showed me how to intimidate people...putting cigs out on your tongue. So I did that, and then he showed me the next step up, just putting it all in your mouth and then spit it out. So I did that.... haha.. Good times. I then got home with my friend and before we even got inside we started wrestling on the garage floor... He's a bit bruised up and so am I. He got it a little worse though with a sprained ankle and bruises on his ribs
It was vicious !!!
Once we actually got inside we crashed watching Grandma's Boy, what a great movie.

Boy, what are you doing messing with cigarettes? Yuck. You are gonna end up smoking, just like some of my other friends that ended up smoking from ONLY playing around. And I'll get onto you about it too! I'll show you some imtimidation...GRRRRRRR (shows teeth)!!!

Played on Thursday a bit. Pretty long day / night. The session was subpar, but I played. I was kinda in a hurry because I had to get home and get ready for some karaoke. This was my first time actually choosing a song and getting up there and singing it, fun fun. I've been up on the mic before, but I won't got there. I sang The Darkness - I Believe in a Thing Called Love & 2 Live Crew - We Want Some Pussy.
The Darkness went really well, I think I hit most of the high notes pretty well and the crowd got into it pretty well. I can barely even remember singin 2 Live Crew. I remember beatboxin a lil bit on the intro while my buddy was yellin, Heeeeeeeeey, Weee want some puuuuuusaaaaaay. Hahahahaa...Oh boy , I don't really remember how the crowd took that one. I don't even remember leavin the bar that night...the DD said somethin about us wrestling in the middle of the street and also my buddy pissing on the side of a truck as a cop drove by, but didn't see him. He dropped us off at my friend's house where I was crashing and left us in the yard, He said it was a worrying site because he drove away as I was on my knees puking and my buddy was standing up next to me puking....ahhhhh....1 too many.
They were having a special on Jello-shots...I'm glad they were short when I ordered them. I was ordering 21 Jello shots, but they only had 12. Of course I was gonna be merry and share with others...Hopefully today after work I'll have enough energy to shred. I stayed up late last night playing Ragnarok and my eyes are still burning from it >_____< I read Jorden's 21 tips for footbag... All pretty simple, yes..., but the one that got me was when he mentioned setting goals. A good reasonable goal is to be able to hit ANY trick you want at any time... Is it just me or does that seem pretty fucking rediculous for a reasonable goal. Maybe for him, Clavens, or Vasek, but please... That is the most farfetched goal you could have. **Thinks** I want to hit super nememsis. Ok , so that is farfetched..., but COME ON !!! Anyways, I'll make a goal right now while I'm rambling. When I compete at Chicago, I want to 'feel' ready. I've never felt comfortable with my game, ever. So I think with hard consistant practice I will feel 'ready'. Actually...now that i think of it, my New Years Resolution was to beat GF SMoothie @ Rippin Run...damn it, I'm screwed

Exercised 40 minutes > Shred 50 minutes. This is after a good 11 hour work day, ugh. So I haven't been the most strict on my footbag regimen and I really need to crack down on it. My feet still don't feel light which means I just need to train more... or mod my nike frees. Exercise and shred went pretty well except for the one mishap. I noticed we got a new machine in our facility and wanted to test it out. It's basically a leg press except putting the pressure into your back and not your shoulders. So I sit down on it and need to adjust the seat height. My legs are dangling down and I figure that I could just lower it down slowly, but I underestimated the decline and physics of it all. It started sliding kinda fast so I react by putting my feet up to try to stop it where I was supposed to have my feet in the first place. I made it about half way when the edge of the metal surface of the press whacked right on my shin..."MMMMmmmmmmm" That is my ouch suppressed which sounds like an angry mmm. So I had to exercise with a bruised and bloody shin today, and shred -___-.
Shred was normal, nothing special. Right before each session here in Belpre I watch Vasek in Barcelona, it is definitely my inspirational video. The music and shred just captivates all that is vasek.I know a lot of times people watch vasek and are just discouraged, I sometimes feel that, but at the same time just look at what he has accomplished. He's human, he is from this world. He isn't supernatural, just super talented.
Anyways, other thoughts lately - I am still debating what to do with my life. I still don't mind working here as a tech, but at the same time I hate it. I hate the fact that I am the lowest person on the poll and I've been working there longer than 95 % of the people, I hate the fact that I'm as knowledgable as some PTA's and more than some also, and I'm at the point where I'm at. I really don't like that I'm in the hole $ 12,000 + and I'd like to make a change somewhere. But where ? Truck driving ? Prolly not, it just isn't me. I know what I felt before was just rash decision making and wanting to get away from the world. I've heard many people from the military say that every person should go to the military, in a sense I agree, but there are many people not made for it. The nature they grew up is so ingrained and their mindsets and body sets will not change to the par of military. I however think I could be a good candidate for it.
I don't keep up with all the politics that goes with the military and if I join I will need to. I know I will be a pawn for the service, but hey, just about anywhere you go, you're a pawn for someone. I shall sell my soul to them, but what will I get back ? A lot. Financially it would be a very good decision. Depending on the which branch you go to and how long you go into service for, some will pay off your old loans, around $10,000. That is a very very large burden off my back. They will also help pay for your college afterwards. As long as it doesn't go over so much per month...say harvard or some rediculously expensive school. That would be years of my life dedicated to paying off school if I wasn't in the military. So while I'm in the military I would be gaining benefits that would help me here and there financially. Then there is the points of self-confidence and becoming a more stern and worldly person. The stern part I'm not a huge fan of, but I know I have to grow up sometime and start keeping track of myself. I'm a huge procrastinator and haven't given my all...what has that lead me to do ? I've failed many things in life and have been short changed. Did I deserve it, most of the time yes. With the life of military I think it would show me a whole other side of life that I'm not used to whether I like it or not. It would prepare me mentally to get my ass in gear and not take things for granted. Physically..well that's easy. I feel as if right now I'm in about the best shape of my life. With the assistance of the military I'd basically be 100% efficient with my body weight. The downside is I may develope degenerative effects on my joints because of some of the hard conditions they put you through.
It's a crazy thing...I've always been opposed to the thought of military, but I feel now that I'm in my situation...it would be a good choice. I was treating a patient a couple days ago and we talked about it. He was in the Army for 8 years. He said prior to that he failed out of college and it basically sounded like he was in the same shit as me. He now says he couldn't have achieved what he wanted without the army, financially and mentally. It set him pretty well straight, he went back to school afterwards and obtained a good job. I would like that. I've badmouthed the military and such, but why just say" The military is dumb " when you really know nothing solid about it. Yes, they do not have the choice where to go and they are ordered to do what they must do. These choises are not always wise..., but the soldiers have been trained to be completely loyal to what they server. I find that very admirable. I don't like the thought of being killed somewhere away from home, but then again, I'd wrather die out there, than in my hometown. I don't know...like I said, it's crazy. I could rant about this for a couple more pages, but nobody can get into my head, but me. I just want a change for the better...I don't want to continue this same life as it is. My friend said, you don't want to go out to the desert and getting killed. I say, no shit, but it's better than staying here and doing nothing for another 22 years.
Shred was normal, nothing special. Right before each session here in Belpre I watch Vasek in Barcelona, it is definitely my inspirational video. The music and shred just captivates all that is vasek.I know a lot of times people watch vasek and are just discouraged, I sometimes feel that, but at the same time just look at what he has accomplished. He's human, he is from this world. He isn't supernatural, just super talented.
Anyways, other thoughts lately - I am still debating what to do with my life. I still don't mind working here as a tech, but at the same time I hate it. I hate the fact that I am the lowest person on the poll and I've been working there longer than 95 % of the people, I hate the fact that I'm as knowledgable as some PTA's and more than some also, and I'm at the point where I'm at. I really don't like that I'm in the hole $ 12,000 + and I'd like to make a change somewhere. But where ? Truck driving ? Prolly not, it just isn't me. I know what I felt before was just rash decision making and wanting to get away from the world. I've heard many people from the military say that every person should go to the military, in a sense I agree, but there are many people not made for it. The nature they grew up is so ingrained and their mindsets and body sets will not change to the par of military. I however think I could be a good candidate for it.

Well, today I stopped in the military office in the mall. I talked with a Navy recruiter first during lunch for about 35 minutes. It was meh, we didn't get in depth. I later talked to a marine recruit after work for about 2.5 hours. That seems like a long time, but it meant a lot to give me that much time just for someone you don't know. I have pretty much made up my mind that I will be joining the marines. Tomorrow I'm supposed to check in with the Air Force and see what all they have to offer me. I really want something that will help me through the ride, yet I don't want it easy. I want something that will give me a real challenge, physically and mentally. I want something that will give me a new path and open up lots of doors. Traveling...I can't wait to travel over seas to places I've never been or seen.
I had a couple ideas of what I wanted to do in the Marines, but there are so many career paths it's hard to choose this quickly. I could go to boot camp for 3 months and then head to a college of my choice and they'll pay for my Bachelors, also pay me while I'm in school. It'd be mostly acedemic with some mandatory physical training twice a week. I'd take it on myself to train every day though...He told me that physical status plays a large roll in promotions. I'm not complaining at all, I'd love to do that...He was telling me that to ace the physical after my training I'd have to be able to do 100 situps in 2 minutes (check), 20 pullups (almost a check), and a 3 mile run under 18 minutes... That right there is the killer. I'm going to start taking up running and hopefully start hitting a couple miles under 7 minutes...god that sounds hard.
So yeah, I could go to Ohio State University and after that be sent directly to aviation school. I've never really thought about aviation...,but I've always found flying very interesting. Some of the first games I played were flying games. Chuck Yagers flying simulator. Did you know Chuck Yager was born and raised in WV, sweeeeeeet... I think joining would be a complete submersion in a different lifestyle. I would rid myself of procrastinating which I am famous for. I'd rid the need of hours over hours of video games. I know I'd be in peak shape. I'd learn more things than ever...since everything is geared towards your career in the military. I've always thought some things like a pilot...were jobs of people that were superhuman or something. It would take me a while, but it is very obtainable. Another possibility was becoming a Embassy Guard. That would mean I could stay from 18 or 36 months at a time at an Embassy. It all sounds very foreign to me, but I'm ready for something foreign. The hardest thing about it all would be leaving my friends behind and meeting new people. I believe though I need it, I need to be put into a different scenario. Again...there are millions of thoughts about what we talked about, but i'm excited and somewhat nervous at the same time. I love that feeling that I know something new and exciting is around the corner. It'll be out to kick the shit out of me, but I will soon stand up on my own and go on a different adventure. No more waking up bored as hell wishing something were different...something were more exciting than a dull monotonous life.
Anyways...first step shall be now. I'll delete all ragnarok games, HA ! I did that once before for a long time, and it came back eventually. Those montreal girls will make you do crazy things. Next step will be waking up early and starting with some sort of exercise / stretching routine. o_O This should be interesting.
