Fishing and Shipping

Well it's steady as she goes here in Wake Forest as of late. It hard to adjust and do things different when your schedule demands that it be such a rigid one to begin with. I'm slowly starting to use every single minute that I can, and still I fail to do so sometimes. I'm also starting to realize the beauty of waking up early you allot yourself so much more extra time that way.

It's been a rough couple weeks here recently @ UPS I've been the favorite focus of constructive ridicule I'm having and have been having trouble with misloads (putting the right package in the wrong bag). I just press on and tell my supervisors that I'm doing my best and thats all that anyone can expect from me. It's not negligence or anything of that sort. For the most part its getting tunnel vision and not thoroughly reading the address label. My mother will want to be concerned about my previous statements but what she doesn't realize is that its UPS(they get concerned and turn right around and don't care about it whatever it may be)

So after some odd years of I don't know what I've recently become interested in the art of fishing. So much more that attaching a worm to hook w/ a bobber and just letting is sit. I'm talking about bait fishing and luring fish out and getting them to strike. It was a blast yesterday it was slow start for me but as for my roommate he caught 8 smallmouth all together I managed to to catch 3 towards the end of the day. All in all a great time.

Fishing also reminds me how we as Christians struggle with temptation we see the bait what the world has to offer but what he don't know intially is lurking within that shining piece is a dangerous hook. It's only by grace and the fellow Christians around us that we're able to throw that hook and get away.

Fragile!!!...Handle w/ care

This inspiration to write this time comes from my place of employment oddly enough. I finally reached my seniority so now I have to either steal something, start fight, or set off a bomb in the building to get fired. In the short and long 7 months that I've been employed at UPS I've seen many packages with the special label Fragile: Handle w/ Care. Now to you the receiver of such a said package with aforementioned label in your ideal imagination would like to believe and think that; that package has been handled with the "care" that has been requested by that said label. I'm here to testify to the contrary. The Fragile label means nothing to the common package handler. I've seen a many fragile package sail through the air like it was a football. Now not to worry you the receiver this is not the norm I'm just reporting what I've seen @ both Fedex and UPS both major shippers.

We are back to classes after "spring break" and with that test are soon to follow. I got to see a good and familiar face today in the person of Victor Lee from my home church that and free meal is always good too.

Congrats to the NC State Wolfpack are in order for hanging in there and making sure that the Duke Blue Devils went down like a bunch of punks that they are.

Discussion time: Do you think Henderson's foul was flagrant or intentional????

ITS TOURNEY TIME.....GET CRAZY!!!!!!!

I Thought it was a News Report Not a Ratings Competition.....

Well three weeks into the episodes of LOST and I can't say that I'm not busting neurons at the end of every episode.

So where has the scotsman/seminarian been for the span of 3 weeks well to be perfectly honest blogging hasn't been the foremost thing on my mind as of late. This can be attributed to a writing funk i.e. not enough fodder or worthy material blog about. I'm slowly working my way through that book that I got tagged to review. It's a slow go with all the other work and reading that I have got to do.

So watching and reading the latest news and the Anna Nicole saga at any point is anyone concerned with "How" she died. I mean seriously its not every day that 40 year old like her just drops dead. It seems that the media is more concerned with what gets "ratings".

Spring break for Southeastern is this week so it should free me up to get some work done get some rest to finish fighting off the most recent bug I've had. I've been sick more often this past year that I've ever been in recent memory. Also with the help of a awesome site called Craig's List I was able to acquire a washer and dryer for $200.00 so let the era of free laundry begin.

Sports, and LOST

Well sports fans....the Tarheels accomplished what rarely happens for them considering their most recent history. Last night UNC was able to beat the Duke Blue Devils on their home turf. I missed the first half the game last night due to work. So raced home hoping to catch the 2nd half of the game only find out that it was blacked out on ESPN b/c it was being covered on the local station. So I essentially taped 3/4 of alternate content. A win is always good so it wasn't all that bad.

So being all caught up with LOST was all ready to go for last night. This episode was no dissappointment I can't wait for next week.

School is keeping me pretty busy for the most part so most nights I have little time for anything else other than going straight to bed for being totally exhausted. In other words, I probably should be reading something right now instead of taking time to post content.

Copy-Cats

Good morning sports-fans. All of you Tarheel fans may consider my loyalty when you read what I'm about to post but trust I'm loyal, devoted, Tarheel Blue through and through.

I was watching the morning addition of Sportscenter, and some college basketball highlights. I noticed how many school's student bodies imitate Duke's Cameron Crazies. I will admit that even my school Carson-Newman tried to play the intimidation card at our basketball games. Any time I see anyone other than the Cameron Crazies doing it I laugh. The sight of the entire student body bobbing up and down and cheering at Duke has to be one of the most unnerving things in all of sports.
