burgs« hola mis amigos | main | awtr »01.10.2008 comfort zones just got my fall semester grades. an A in database systems and an A- in Information Systems Analysis and Design. after 3 classes my gpa is a .... 3.80. wow. i can hardly believe it myself. anyways, one of the good things about cabo was just relaxing. i was able to finish 2 books, "boston marathon or bust" and "sex drugs and cocoa puffs". sd&cp was amazing because of all the pop culture references and relating them back to society in a way that i could identify with. whole chapters dedicated to internet porn, sbtb (saved by the bell), star wars, and john cusack? sign me up. i've read a ton of marathon books but this one was different. this was almost a "self help book". i guess i don't like the term self help book b/c it implies that those who read it need some help. well truth be told, i guess we could all use a little help. it can't hurt right? anyways, this book talks about what it takes to be successful, how to jump hurdles, etc. very insightful book that is helping me form some very concrete "goals" and plans to achieve those goals. (eerily similar to what i wrote a few weeks ago about why new years resolutions don't work). anyways, i realized what my first real step is to qualifying for boston. drop some weight (again). time to step out of my comfort zone and start getting...well uncomfortable. so said burgs @ 16:44 | guestbook | bookmark | board | comments: congrats on your successful fall semester burgs! so said lbckat @ 01.11.08 08:53 post a comment |
