When life has situations that aren't pleasant, you must appreciate what's already in front of you and progress with your intended goals. I've always been one to focus on happiness, self-realization, and reaching a physical potential with myself. But at the same time, I'm pretty stubborn when it comes to certain things, and maybe that has acted against via karma with my unfortunate disappointments in the past which has delayed my college graduation.

But I'm through it and will always persevere through the hard times. The beginning of this semester and year was really hard for me and honestly don't know where the last 4 months of my life have taken me but I'm glad it happened. This last semester of school I've really became closer to some fellow kinesiology classmates that are for sure my brodies for life..haha. (FYI : bro + buddy = brody) . I finally found more time for myself to train, exercise, and be there a little bit more for my family. Being an older brother and uncle has always humbled me to being a mentor and positive role model for my younger sibling, and even older siblings- I'm the first person in my family to finish college and it feels great! Even though it took me a long time, the fact still remains: I DID IT! Bachelor of Science Degree - Exercise Science Concentration (aka Pre-Physical Therapy)

Now I can't wait for the summer. I feel like so much weight is finally off my shoulders and I can just focus on me. This summer all I have planned really is teaching myself portuguese through books and CD's. Although I will be partying up like a beast this weekend, monday I'm going straight to Barnes & Noble 4-5 days a week after I hit up the gym from capoeira or mma training and learn as much portuguese as much and as fast as I can.

In the Fall I will turn in my packet for the Army to become a Field Medical Assistant/Platoon Leader.

And after this week I will see how soon I will be going to Korea! I want to go to Seoul to hang out with my bredren Zumbi! He's awesome and is one of my highly respected Cordao De Ouro Capoeira brother. He told me before that all I need to do is find a flight out to see him and he'll take care of the rest. Well, I'm going to find out what dates are best suiting for me and I will be taking a week vacation from everything and go up to Korea for a week. I just have to get my plans straight Zumba! But don't trip, Logan's comin up and we're gonna tear up those reggae clubs! haha

For now.. I'm going to enjoy this week with a big ass smile on my face because Saturday morning at 8:30am my commencement starts!

PEACE

Logan C.D.O.
