All star weekend.
My brothers birthday.<\/p>\n
Once again another year has came and past for these events. The all star weekend was held in Phoenix this year. I went to the NBA Jam Session. Honestly I was expecting more.<\/p>\n
All of the news reports said it was going to be great, but when I arrived I was very much underwhelmed by everything. On top of it all, there was hardly anything Blazers in the whole event.<\/p>\n
Speaking of the Blazers- they have been on a bit of a break due to the All Star weekend- tonight they resume and will host the Memphis grizzlies.<\/p>\n
What else has been going on?<\/p>\n
At work I have been learning all about the billing department. It is a good change– it is a little overwhelming at times due to the amount of information given all at once, but I think it will be good.<\/p>\n
If anything it will be something else I can add to my resume on places and areas I have worked. They are actually expanding at my work (while most other jobs are laying off or cutting back). They just hired 10 more billing agents, plus phone reps, a manager and director. Always good to be expanding during these times.<\/p>\n
The realization that we will never have the girls is not really something I think that I’ll ever feel. With the whole matter that they were never really in our lives consistently, I do not believe it will – stir as much drama as it could have.<\/p>\n
It is a very weird if you stop and think about it.
Anywho.<\/p>\n
On the good news … my 23,000 of student loans will be paid off in March. It wasn’t a total of 23,000 because at one point I even owed my parents about 5 thousand (that my loans would not pay). So 28,000 has been paid down to a couple thousand. And next month I will be in the black (not the red) thankfully.<\/p>\n
At this point I just want the time to come so I am no longer in debt. I know it’ll happen, just a matter of when – not if.<\/p>\n
The NBA trade deadline is tomorrow.. so if any major news comes down I’ll probably return here to blog about it a bit.<\/p>\n
just Pray.
(I accidentally typed just Pay – and thought of the student loans. haha)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
