With No Job Right Now, I Decided To Go To Plymouth

After a very stressful day yesterday, I decided that I would go up to Plymouth to see some friends and gather my thoughts. So far, I got to hang out with Zach and Sara and play Guitar Hero: World Tour. I also went down to the Lucky Dog and have a few drinks and see my friend Steve. I went back to Vasken’s house and hung out while I added programs to my new laptop. I will be spending time with other friends and working on updating my resume.

I miss the Plymouth scene, but I don’t know if I could live here. Too far away from my family and Boston. However, I have a job possibility up here, so i don’t want to rule it out. It will be a good weekend that I can just relax and have fun.

The Economy Is Really Bad; I Got Laid Off From Work Today

There are certain things that I have got accustomed to over the past year while working for StudentCity.com. I loved my working environment, my co-workers, my responsibilities and the company itself. StudentCity is an amazing company with amazing people who give college students the experience that they deserve while on spring break. However, since the economy is horrible right now, a lot of parents can’t afford to send their son/daughter on spring break. Unfortunately for me, I was a casualty of this current economy.

The past few months have been very hard with losing my father to cancer, having to sell my childhood house and now losing my job to the economy, but there is a plan. Even though I am still having trouble believing it, I know that everything will work out. Not to be super religious, but God wouldn’t give me anything that I couldn’t handle. I will figure out my job situation and who knows, this job might even be better for my career in web development.

I am in no way mad at StudentCity for letting me go, but I am saddened by how much I am going to miss working there. I was at the company for a year and three months and loved every minute of it. If anyone reading this wants to go on spring break, go to StudentCity.com, book a trip and have the best spring break experience of your life. Let them know that I said Hi, have fun and as StudentCity staffers always say, “See you on the beach”!

Congratulations to the 2008 World Series champions, Philadelphia Phillies. They played very well except for game 2 which they lost. The entire postseason was amazing, but I wish the Red Sox were the ones taking the trophy.

Boston Celtics Raise 17th Banner And Win Game Opener

The Boston Celtics, 2008 NBA World Champions, raised their 17th banner tonight and got their rings. Out of all of the players, “the truth”, Paul Pierce was very emotional because he waited so long as a member of the Celtics without winning one. Last year, the Celtics went from being the worst team in the NBA to being ranked 1st in the season and win another NBA title. It shows how well this team worked together towards one goal.

The Celtics beat the Cleveland Cavilers 90-85 at the TD Banknorth Garden in Boston and it was a very interesting game. The Celtics were behind the whole 1st half of the game. They came out in the 3rd and 4th pounding away at the Cavilers and took over the lead. They went back and forth for a while, but finally the Celtics finished the game strong.

Can the Celtics repeat as champions this year? Can they regain the dynasty status? Only time will tell, but it will be a fun year to watch.

GO CELTICS!!!!!!
