Zelda: Windwaker is done and done again. All the pics, all the tingle statues, all the extra shit and the second quest completed so that is that. I guess that still leaves GT3 to finish up, as well as Ocarina and Rayman 3.
Aside from that there isn't much going on. I got to hang out with Jason and his friend Kelly tonight, which was great. It is fun to see how over the years my friendship with JAson has changed, but stayed strong. And I'm glad to be hanging out with his friends.
I guess I have also had some time to thing about my being single. It is definetely for the best that I not be out and about trying to date right now. There are too many questions as to where I am going to be. But with that in mind it is certainly difficult sometimes not having someone to share stuff with. Ultimate is keeping me busy enough that I'm not noticing too often, however it still creeps in at times. It doesn't help that both Rich and Mike have girlfriends now, leaving me the lone bachelor. But whatever, the important thing now is that I finish my masters, get a job and figure life out a bit more.
Speaking of which, I got an email back from my Aussie boss in Colorado. He basically told me that it would be a good idea to look overseas for work/schooling because things are so much more applied in other countries. In the US sport science is a very research/academic persuit so there aren't many jobs (especially non-faculty jobs). This is not the case overseas. So I am putting thought into that, however not getting very far. It would be a major lifestyle change to try to move countries. I would need a really good situation for me to feel comfortable with it. Plus, as I realize that ultimate IS my girlfriend in many ways, the disc in other countries just isn't that good. Sure, I could get on national teams, but that doesn't get you respect. It is like playing overseas basketball, you still dream about playing in the NBA. I would get to go to worlds, but never as a contender and I don't know if I am down with that.
Regionals is this weekend, and I am very excited. We're going in 4th after a poor performance at sectionals, but that is no matter. We can run with any team in our region, and have an offense that is super consistent. If we play well and value the disc on defense we will take the 1st seed. But at the same time, if we slip we could drop to 4th quickly and that means we aren't going to nationals and I am not ready for that.
