Imagine what happens when you don’t really have any kind of hard athletic activity for a good four months. Then imagine what happens when you decide to play a four hour marathon game of pick-up football on Saturday followed by a two hour road hockey stint on Sunday.

As usual, I’ve gotten really busy as of late. It’s my favorite time of month, report cards!!!

Well, I know I’ve been absent from the site for a while. Truth is, I haven’t had much to say or report. I can say this… the sheen has definitely worn off.
It’s not that things are bad mind you. I’ve actually been having a good time lately. It’s just that I’ve been suffering from having [...]

I’ll never say Korean food is filling, that’s for sure. I’ve dropped probably 15-20 pounds here and a good three inches off my waist since arriving. They say everyone drops weight at first before they pile it back on, but I’m not so sure… I have been here for four months now. Actually have had [...]
