I've been enjoying going to the beaches out here so much, the water is a bit cold at the moment but its just so nice being only a few blocks away from all the most famous beaches in California. MTV used to have there summer beach house at Mission Beach which is only a mile or so away from here, and also Bay Watch was filmed mostly on Pacific beach, La Jolla, and Mission as well. On monday i start working at my new job which I am excited for, if for nothing else the opportunity to make decent money and get a few things done that have been on my to do list for a while.
This week was a great week for sports everywhere. Tiger Woods was the most impressive to me, he played injured through the entire US Open and managed to win, which elevates him in my eyes to the best active athelete in sports right now. A little more than a week ago, Rafael Nadal won his fourth French Open title which is amazing considering the guys that he beat to get there. He is still my favorite tennis player and I still consider tennis to be the ultimate one-on-one sport, but I can't even begin to say how much more impressive Tiger's win was in the US Open. Infact this is one time I think the media under-exaggerated how amazing the win was. The Celtics also won there 17th championship this week, which I was really happy about because Kevin Garnet and Ray Allen really deserved it, they had been stars on losing teams for a long time.
As for me I hope to get in as good of shape as any of the guys that I mentioned above, I will start going to a gym after work as soon as possible. One of my goals for the year is actually to be comfortable with my body enough to go to the beach in a speedo.
