Life is a Rollercoaster

I cannot believe it has been over a month since my last blog. Since then, I moved out of my old apartment, became homeless for two weeks, battled getting my new place, been working like a dog to finish off the basketball season strong, working on business ideas, and now prepping for what I hope to be a long playoff run for the Heat....whoah, i don't think i said all of that in one breath. Yes, as we all have been there and done that...Life is a rollercoaster.

I have been super busy because of the previously mentioned engagements I have been involved in. I am finally able to take a step back and breathe...well, it's only going to last 9 hours coz I am definitely back on the grind first thing tomorrow at 10am.

I have so many aspects in my life I really need to focus on and I feel like I have failed...well, failed is a strong word to use...more like "have not been successful" in accomplishing my short term goals. People, in general, get caught up with the daily components of life...and we forget or should I say "make excuses" as to why something did not get accomplished. I am sure you've heard it all before. "Oh I am too busy and too tired to go the gym". "I don't have time to do laundry". "I want to start up my own business, but I haven't gotten to it". "Oh, I am going to get rid of him soon coz he no good for me". Yes people, I have made these statements myself. I am so sick and tired of my damn excuses. Life aint gonna change itself. I better make a damn move on it if I wanna get any where in life.

But, on a serious note, I have been THAT busy. I am feeling a sense of relief now that this "shortened season" has come to a halt. However, PLAYOFFS is another beast in itself. I am excited. I am up for the challenge. And most importantly, I am ready for a better work schedule.

On another note, I have found myself very disconnected to a lot of my friends, especially ones I consider my best. One of my best friends from college is about to pop pretty soon and have her lil baby girl any minute now. My other girlfriend (who happens to be my Godbro's wife) is also pregnant and should be due in July. And I just found out that my gf from HS in the Philippines just had a baby girl. Do you see the trend here??? Everyone's popping out babies left and right, oh no! Ha, I am happy to see everyone grown up. Again, life throws you some crazy curve balls!

What's next for me? Well, I need to survive the next two months of playoffs and hopefully end in the NBA Finals. Would love to get that championship ring soon. After that, the sky is the limit...until next season starts at least. Funny how we get so consumed in our jobs/careers, we don't even realize how much it actually takes over our life. That needs to change for me real soon. Not going to talk about, just going to do it. Till next time... I shall see you all tomorrow, Playoffs Round 1 Game 2 against the NY Knicks! Ciao.
