almost x2 ...

Woof. Just busted 14th in a $2 MTT for a meager $30. Sucks to wade through a HUGE field of moron players (2961 to be exact) and bust with the best hand. This time was 1010 into AQo, which obviously last night, was the hand I busted with and today it comes around and kicks my ass. Ahhh, poker. Really wish I was still in it gunning for the $872 first place price. Fuck.

All in all, it was a really good night of poker. Although I managed not to make much money, I cashed in 5 tournaments while playing 7. I was running SOOO hot early. It was sick. I really thought I was going to ship one tourney tonight. But oh well, hopefully soon enough. I feel a lot better playing now, which is half the battle. Once I start doubting myself or my game, I typically suck and play terrible. But the last 2 nights I have put together some good runs, so yeah .. I just need a fucking win.

So that is the poker rant. In other Sturg news, I talked to one of my best friends, Hunter, today. I do not get the opportunity to talk to him to much, so that was a good time while I talked to him. He is moving out to Indiana to attend law school with his fiancee after they graduate from the University of Miami. I am way pumped for him, and I think he has the right idea of staying in school (even though I don't think I could right now). I do have a hidden ambition to attend law school, but it def would be a ways off. I need a break from the school life.

Midst our conversation, we couldn't believe we would be graduating college so soon. It is a crazy concept for me to wrap my mind around that I will no longer be attending a school. Pretty much my entire life, I have been in school. It is such a routine in my life. You semi-attempt to do well at school from Sep-April and then you bust your ass off working two jobs from May-Aug. That has been my life. But in May I graduate .. no more school. What the fuck am I suppose to do from Sep-April? Work? Fuck. Work seems like a thing you can't half-ass like I have my entire academic career (to the dismay of my parents, exgirlfriends and teachers).

School really just does not interest me. I am way over it. But even still, life without it will be fucking wacky.

I wanted to add this when I was talking about Hunter, but I got lost in my school rant, so I am just going to talk about it now. Fuck it. It is my blog. I mentioned Hunter is moving out to Indiana with his fiancee, Rachel. I am WAY pumped for their wedding in June. Ben (diff Ben from other blog posts), Roach (same Roach), Ferrill and I are all best men, as Hunter neglected to select one best man due our to tight knitness (inventing words.) We were always together in high school (except the moments when we were with our respective girlfriends). We have remained close throughout college, but it is tough to coordinate schedules when we are home for all of us to hang out at once (also partially due to respective girlfriends). So I am really looking forward to spending that weekend with all the guys. No homo, but I love those guys.

I have so many great friends from back home (way to many to mention) and here in Keene (way to many to mention as well). I am really blessed to have such great friends and without them, I would really not be anything.

Wicked homo .. I blame it on the Pandora Radio song currently playing .. Tim McGraw - Grown Men Don't Cry ..

  1. Awwww yeay! Congrats on getting chosen best man, that's exciting. Have fun at the wedding!

    By the way Sturge, I feel like this is the only time you and I have heart-to-hearts. But that's okay, I know you don't like to be "sensitive" in front of people. ;)
