WOW!!!

2009-03-16T21:06:46Z

Man it seems like just yesterday I was writing my first blog entry and I was a young nieve freshman with big ideas but little skills. Now I'm winding down my sophmore semester and will be a junior in just 2 and a half short months. Just got back from a quick spring break and I'm trying to get my bearings to finish out this semester strong. I've been working alot to keep my time filled so as if to not think about baseball and the fact that I cant play anymore! But hey all great things must come to an end and I've really filled my schedule wit many enjoyable things to keep me occupied. Check back for updates and see how this 2nd part of semester runs its course. PEACE, LOVE, and ROCK $ ROLL BABY!!!
Phillip!

well.... here we go, the semster is almost over and I can tell because the test and papers are starting to pile up. Though thats a bad thing its also a good thing because Christmas is around the corner and is gunna be pretty nice to get away from the monotany of school. Its been a pretty good semester, but a busy one too. The exams for this semester are looking like there going to be just the run of the mill college exams but I'm def. gunna have to study if I wanna keep the grades up going into the spring. Well time to catch up on some work so check back for some updates this week. PEACE!!!

Yo!

2008-10-18T06:41:27Z

Yo whats up guys and girls! This week was pretty good and like all the others its gone by pretty fast. I've had alot of stuff with work and school but I think I'm balancing it good enough. I've been writing alot of songs lately and I cant wait to get into the studio to record. I think they'll come out pretty good. I've been working on them for a good while and I think I'm satisfied with them enough to record some tracks on 'em. Thanks for checkin; in and I'll be sure to update this week!!

moving forward

Time is flying by and so far its been a real busy semester. One thing that college will teach you for sure is time managment and how important it is. I'm doing pretty well as far as grades gp, and I think the only reason for that is that at USCA you go to your professor anytime and ask questions. That part of USCA helps me stay on track so much. Well time for class, but everything is starting to settle a bit before Christmas break so I'll be sure to keep you guys updated quite a bit. Thanks for stopping by.

moving Quick

Man! once again time is flying by and so is the semester. We are full blown tests, quizzes and papers already. Its tough to stay on top of everything while working and going to school, but hey! I guess thats what its all about, right? Classes aren't bad but it has been tough to hear all the guys talking about practice and and everything knowing I'll never play again. But as one door closes another one opens. Cedar Creek church is going to be opening a church in the convocation center here on campus and i was hired to lead music which is exciting and all too scary at the same time. Thats going to be a real test of time managment but hopefully it will work out. Thanks for checkin in everybody and look back for a mid-week update.

Start Up

2008-09-02T19:07:23Z

Hey Guys! Its the start of school and its already going 1000 miles an hour. It was a great summer but as the fimilar statement resounds, it was all too short. I think I've got some good professors this semester and it should be another good one. With the new dorms being added it seems like were a big D-1 school now. If you read any blogs from last year you'll know that I was playing baseball but had alot of arm problems and had some pretty major surgeries and it doesn't look like I'm ever going to be playing again!!! That was a tough one to swallow. Well time to catch up on work, you def. don't wanna fall behind in the beginning or you'll never catch back up. Have a good one. PEACE!!!

Busy, Busy, Busy

2008-04-15T16:34:12Z

Man. I never thought it could get so busy around here. This last end of the semester is really shaping up to be pretty tough. I have got so much going on at one time. It's CRAZY! But, i guess that is the life of a college student. Atleast we only have like one more full week of classes. Which is nice. Baseball is still going pretty good. I just sucks that I cant play becuase of my shoulder and everything, but god willing, I will back on the old hill before long. Check back for end of the year wrap ups soon!!!

Spring is Here

2008-04-11T14:15:36Z

Man it is nice to finally have some warm weather. I just wish this wasn't also the time when every teacher makes everything due at the same time. Oh well! Atleast we will be done in like 2 weeks. It so different from high school when you dont get out till like june, whereas here we are done by the end of april/begginning of May. Baseball has been great. We are doing well so far but really need to pick it up to clinch the peach belt title. This year has been really good so far and the adjustment from high school has been pretty easy. USCA is a great place to do that. It has alot of things to get involved in and the classroom size is small enough where the proffessors know you by name. Well thats all for now so check back for updates.

Spring is Here!

2008-03-16T22:00:28Z

Man! Its great to have some warm weather finally roll around. Spring break is here and its time to get a break from all the school work. This semester has been going really well and the professors have been great so far. I cant believe that once we are back from spring break, we have only a month and a half before school is out for the entire summer, which is great considering how late I used to get out for summer in high school. Baseball has been going really well. I am recovering from my shoulder surgery pretty well, and the team is playing great. Its gunna be tough to alieviate the pain of coming back from spring break but it will be nice to keep the near future of beaches and babes in visible reality as summer begins to infringe. Well, check back for some updates. PEACE Phillip

Moving Along

2008-02-13T01:18:23Z

Well, We've really started getting into the semster now and the tests are coming fast. I already have had two and I've got another coming up. They haven't been too bad so far but I really gotta stay on top of it. Baseball has been going well, we are 4-2 so far. It really sucks having to sit this year out but rehab for my shoulder is going well and hopefully I ll be back in a few months. Other than all the tests the school semester has been going pretty well, but check back for updates cause theres always something going on.

Back To School.

2008-02-06T15:27:54Z

Man! Back to school! What tough thing to swallow. It was real nice to have some relaxation time and time with family. We are getting settled into our classes and the tests and papers are just starting. Sorry I haven't blogged i a while its been real hectic since I have been back. I had to have shoulder surgery over the break so its been pretty tough since that. It really sucks because I was really looking forward to contributing to the team this year, but hopefully I'll make a full recovery. Well, its about time for class, so I gotta run. Send some comments to let me know how everyone is doing. Thanks Phillip

Christmas Break!

2007-12-11T21:30:15Z

Hey guys! I'm real excited because friday is my last exam and then I'm home free for the break. The only thing is that I have to have shoulder surgery over the break so that will put a little hitch in it, but other than that it will be nice to get away from school for a while. The first freshman semester went pretty well and my grades are looking good. I have to keep it up though because I need to keep the life scholarship so I can take some pressure off of me and my parents. Well, I'm lookin foward to the break so you guys have a great christmas and I'll update a couple times over the break. Merry Christmas.

Winding down

2007-11-26T18:31:08Z

Well Christmas is finally almost here and I can't wait. Its been as pretty tough semester as a first year freshman abut the best thing about it is its over. I have pretty good grades I guess, especially considering all I have to do with baseball during the week and everything. I've already signed up for the classes next semester and the schedule looks pretty good, NO FRIDAY CLASSES! That's always nice. So, check back for a few updates before the break.

I can smell the turkey

2007-11-12T19:55:53Z

Man I am ready for Thanksgiving. So, I finally found one bad thing about college. Professors seem to pile everything on right at the end of the semester when you don't feel like doing anything. Baseball has really slacked off alot, but we are still working hard on conditioning and other small fundamental stuff. I have really enjoyed this first semester in college and I'm looking foward to many more to come. Check back for the relief of the end of the week update.

Waitin' for Christmas

2007-11-01T19:13:14Z

Man I'm ready for Christmas. It may be a little early to hope for snow, but a break is greatly needed. Its getting pretty stressful as the semester winds down. Baseball is still going real well. We have some conditioning and stuff left before we get off for break. My grades are good so far, but I really need to put forth a little extra effort as the end of the semester gets closer. The good thing about college is that Christmas break is so much longer than it was in high school. So, overall everything is going pretty well so check back in for an update soon.
