school and football

I've decided to go with Corvinus University and their Executive MBA program. I thought about both programs and felt what Corvinus had to offer was much better. The university is more renowned, the alumni network I felt was better because of this, they offered to help find me a job while I went to school and overall just got a better feel for it. So there it is.

I had to email CEU and while I was writing stating that I chose another, it felt like writing a rejection letter to a girlfriend. "...i'm sorry, but it's not working out....i've decided to see another..." :D it gave me a laugh after a hard day of football practice.

With that said, football practice was harder than usual. It seemed like the coach was seeing who was fast and who wasn't. He broke us up into 5 groups and the first in each group seemed like the fastest people. I say seemed like because he spoke in Hungarian. Anyways, I was chosen to be the first in one of the groups. It was a sprint to the other side of the field. If you didn't finish first, then you had to do 10 pushups. We did this over and over and each time I didn't finish first. I always thought I had decent speed, not necessarily the fastest, but good speed. But these guys are pretty fast. The reason I say that is they were running with full pads and all I had on was shorts and a t-shirt!! Anyways, the fastest guy beat me by 2 steps or so. So a couple of things here; reality check!, I'm not that fast. Next, I need to buy pads asap and get accustomed to running with them. And lastly, because of this hundred push up contest I'm doing with the others, doing 10 push ups after sprinting wasn't so bad. (there's my silver lining)

OH! Before I forget.....I found a Mexican restaurant here!!!! :D Now, it's not Barrio Logan or Chula Vista mexican restaurant, but I'll take whatever I can get. It's actually more like Chipotle, but whatever....they sold CARNE ASADA! Apparently the guy who owns it, is originally from California and preferred to use Chipotle's model. In any case, I've got a place to go to for my burrito fix. The place is called Arriba Taqueria and soon, they'll deliver! SWEET!!! :D

Now i'm hungry...lates.
