Ok so its been about 1 week since my last, (first and only) blog entry. I left off just giving a brief explanation of what I had planned on doing with my blog and a little background into who I was. So now a brief update on what the last week has been like.

School
I had two midterms last Thursday which I really had a hard time studying for and it probably cost me on my Advanced Accounting midterm. I just really find that class boring, confusing and hard to study for. Fortunately for me, the professor is a really cool guy who I've had for a few other classes, and I don't forsee him giving me a bad grade in the class, as long as I put a little more effort into doing well in the class. The other midterm (Computer Ethics) went pretty well I thought, but I'm not really sure how hard he grades. We will see. Now I am currently on spring break, yet still at school doing research on the NFL for my economics professor who is writing a textbook on the NFL. This research is so monotonous and boring I have fell behind a bit, and will be working on it well into March. Other than that I have been trying to just relax.

Partying
As you can expect I haven't really partied in a while since everyone is gone from campus. However, I did go home on Monday to have a few drinks with my cousins, and one of my friends from way back stopped by, and it was cool to see him. Hopefully, this weekend will be a little more exciting.

Poker
I have been playing more tourney poker than I have in a long time, since I have a lot of free time at night now. I really wanted to make an effort over this week to play as much tourney poker as I could since after break I won't have a lot of time to dedicate to tournaments at night. I have always been a more successful tournament player than cash game player, so I hoped focusing on tournaments would reap some rewards. Unfortunately, I have been basically treading water. A few cashes but nothing to get excited about. I feel I have been playing pretty well, probably a little too tight for my A game but definetly no worse than my B game, probably my B+ or A- game. Hopefully, I start running a little better in the later stages of the guarantee tourneys since I really havent been having much success in them. Also, I think reading Bond18's blogs will help me be more aware of the mistakes I may have made in the past, and some of the leaks in my game.

Hopefully I will be bringing a brag blog soon about a decent tourney score.

Until then, I hope to blog about twice a week, and keep you all updated on my adventures... couldn't think of a better word there.

That's all for now,
Foulky
