It's me that's changing. And by allowing myself to change I am able to see my world change around me. I'm seeing things from a different perspective.
I see someone as my replacement now instead of my competition.
I see new endeavors, new prospects, and new challenges.
I like what I am seeing and I like the new me. I'm getting better at being alone. I'm waking up with less complaints. I'm being more positive.
It isn't that I'm having a great day everyday, it's that I'm finding something great even on my bad days.
I've really found my niche here at school. Club baseball has really played a huge part in that. When I tried out I was unsure how I'd be received by the other guys on the team if I were to make it. Now that we've had several series of games I see how I fit in. The trip to Cornell was one of my favorite trips with any team. Not only did we sweep Cornell, but I got to bond with all the guys on the team. Driving there and back was long, but the guys in my car made it much more bearable. Aside from the games and the guys, Cornell was absolutely beautiful. Upstate New York is scenic as ever.
This past weekend we finished up another series sweep and I think I've solidified the nickname "Wildcard." I'm not sure if it comes from my reckless base running at Cornell, my outlandish comments made on a daily basis, or a mixture of both. But whatever it is, I like it. The guys on the team love to bust my balls by calling me "Tommy No Range," but it's all in good fun. Plus that let's me make pokes at them as well.
All in all, being back to playing baseball is probably the best thing to happen to me this year.
That's not to say that the fraternity hasn't had a big impact on me because it has. If I do manage to get in (which I really hope I do) then I'll have another group of people to hang with. Our initiate class is awesome. The best part about it is how different we all are. Each of us is unique in one way or another. The five guys are all very different and the same goes for the girls. Our uniqueness along with our dysfunction makes everything a hell of a lot of fun.
Between baseball and Pi stuff I've been slightly overwhelmed the past few weeks, but if it all works out then it will have been worth the time.
Now that baseball is over for the semester I need to get back in the gym. I wanna put in all the work I can so I can play whatever role I need to. I would love nothing more than to be playing baseball in late May. Our team has a lot of potential. We just need to make sure we want it bad enough.
That's all for now. Figured I'd catch you all up on what's going on in my life.
