Ok, so I've been challenged to blog more. I think this is kinda funny because when I was blogging, I was told that I wasn't that good. Anyways, because of my competitive nature, when I get challenged, I respond. So, let the blogging begin.
This is the first week of my summer. School ended last Friday, and with that, I have 3 months off, to do whatever I please. I kicked off the summer with an annual trip to Vegas. Myself, and 13 other teachers from my school, decided to celebrate the summer together, by dumping our money in beautiful LV.
I was quickly reminded of how unlucky I am. For the first day and a half I played pretty much every game in the casino, and was yet to experience the thrill of winning. I started to get excited about only losing a little, rather then my whole buy in. I mean seriously, how can you lose everything. I always have this feeling that my luck will begin to turn. I wait for that "hot streak". I do know that it's this mentality by gamblers that builds those beautiful buildings in the picture up there. Fortunately, my luck started to turn, and it ended up being a decent trip.
Also in Vegas, I was pressured to golf. Now, for some reason, golf is something I can't do. I would say that I am pretty good at most things, but I definitely suck at golf. I've never felt so awkward as I do when I'm swinging a golf club. How bad did I play? I couldn't even tell you, because after a few miserable holes, I opted for pounding beers over keeping score. One of my big goals this summer is to make some strides in the positive direction with my golf game. As I was reminded yesterday, I've got 49 years to beat my roomate, otherwise I'm out 10 grand. Wish me luck. I'm gonna need it.
