Cream of Corn and Crab Soup!

Made some soup last night.

Mistakes made:

(1) Used beef broth instead of chicken broth...well actually, 1 beef and 1 chicken. I didn't realize one of the boxes was beef.

(2) Needed just a tad bit more salt.

(3) Was supposed to contain chicken breast but I didn't have any.

I will definitely keep improving and will update when I have made a flawless Cream of Corn and Chicken and Crab soup!

The Blog has been created! AGAIN!

To live a fulfilling life is a goal of mine and I know this goal is shared by many people. The purpose of this blog is to record my quest to seek out, tackle, and accomplish all the dreams and goals I want to complete.

Make some money!

Ok. I've decided to look up and learn about currency exchange and stocks exchange.

If you're an employee like me, and feel that working for the "man" is not really getting you ahead--then perhaps dabbling in educated investing will allow you to supplement your income.

I'll look into this stuff and report what I've discovered. Take care!

Best Basketball Day

Yesterday, I played the best basketball of my life.

My friends and I rented out a gym where we play once a week. Its usually a five man team, one is a sub, and its up to seven points then we switch up opponents.

This is our second season, and it is the first time I scored more than 10 shots...in fact, I scored 15 shots in! I think last season the most I scored on a single basketball day was 7 shots.

The interesting thing is I am more known as a rebounder and I usually get my baskets in by way of offensive rebound and second shot opportunity.

Today I scored 4 shots from under the net and the other 11 shots were from the outside.

Why is this so amazing that I have to post it? Its because I am usually afraid to take shots. I always think that it will miss...and it usually does. But yesterday, I decided that I will do my best and to shoot. My mind was blank when I shot--and when I cleared my head and not thought too much about missing, I started to get it in.

The power of the human mind is so interesting. You cannot underestimate believing in yourself...a self-fulfilling prophecy if you will. I believe that I will be able to do this same level of performance for next week.

Yes I can!
