Friday.
The final boss battle before the credits roll.

It's been quite a week for myself in a good way. Just been handling my business with academics while also making time to enjoy myself with other random activities and such. I feel really accomplished as this week comes to a close.

I also learned something that people need to hear: Make time for your inner happy. And what that means is schedule a little time in your jam-packed daily routine for some you time. Whether it's going to the gym, reading a magazine, hanging with your friends for lunch, whatever it is that you do.

Plus, I also started doing P90X. I love working out and all but I wanted to see if I can actually push myself to this routine for the next 90 days. I'm on Day 5 and man...I can already see some "improvements" lol. Not even gonna lie...this fitness program is tough but worth the work. It's a very good mixture of exercises regularly done at a gym and you don't stop. I feel like I burn a gigantic amount of calories and sweat so much that I could fill a small lake. But I love it, hopefully I can survive the full 90 Days.

Other than that, I'm level headed and just enjoying life at the moment.
Hope you guys and gals are doing the same.

And On Tap numero 33 is...


I might be too strung out on compliments,
Overdosed on confidence.
Starting not to give a f!&k and stop fearing the consequence.

-Drake


Enjoy your weekend.

Monday.
One of the biggest evils that man has to face besides avoiding parking Nazis and heavy traffic on the local highway.


And probably communism. But no bigger nemesis than Monday.

The good news about this Monday is perhaps that it is National Video Games Day!! Now as an avid gamer, I'll join in the fray later af
ter I get some work done to celebrate this joyous occasion with some gamers on Xbox LIVE with a few rounds. If you like playing video games whether you enjoy the PS3, Xbox 360, Nintendo 64, Playstation, Atari 2600; go play some today!

Other than that, Monday is gonna be a great start for you guys if you have the right attitude. Don't nag that you have to get up for work like almost everyone else that is blessed to have a job. Instead, take a few d
eep breaths, wash up, and prepare to kick some ass. Not literally unless one of your job descriptions is to physically kick some ass on the daily basis.

Enjoy your Monday people. Make a good run out of the gates, we got a few more days until the weekend comes back at us for another session of relaxation.

LET'S DO IT!!!


Arise.


And here's today's On Tap...Number 32!!


You look around like ain't nothing stopping me. This is my time, my choice, like the whole damn world gotta hear my voice.

-Project Lionheart

MotiTunes!: Project Lionheart


You ever have that feeling when you listen to a new song that you just got to have it? Well that just happened to me.
I was watching some trailers for NBA 2K12. Yeah, video game trailers...shocker, eh?

Anyways, I watched one of them
(
this one to be exact) and as I kept watching it I really started to get my attention of the visual and more on the soundtrack in the background.



Project Lionheart is based out of Seattle, Washington. A mixture of 3 artists from Punk Rock and even West African percussion together to make an interesting fusion of hip hop.

From what I heard for the first time on this song, I was impressed by their art. The song is very relaxing with a smooth beat and vocalist that blends well to make a very pleasing song for your ears.


Give it a listen.

The song is called "They Come Back"

Thursday.
Mission: Make It To Friday.

GO!

By Thursday morning, we'd gotten over the worst of it.

TGIF! (On Tap 30)

Friday could not come soon enough this week.

With all the hurricane business to start the festivities and numerous amounts of power outages along with the cleaning up of all the damages...I'm pretty sure I am not the only person looking forward to the weekend.

As an extra bonus, it's Labor Day Weekend!!! So fire up those grills, grab a few 6 packs, and bring plenty of food for some good eating in the backyard!

Very excited for today myself seeing that I basically have a full plate of events to attend to today. My afternoon basically involves tacos, beer, soccer, and red sweater vests.  Some of you don't get that last part of the previous sentence but if you're a VCU student or fan...exactly. :)

Then after all the sporting goodness, a night out the town along with some other enjoyable moments are in the workings for myself.  So here's to you Friday...we've been through a tough week and this one's for you for not coming fast enough.

Cheers.


And here is today's quote for On Tap...number 30!
Enjoy your weekend folks!
 

The only liberty an inferior man really cherishes is the liberty to quit work, stretch out in the sun, and scratch himself

-H.L. Mencken 


P.S. Red Sweater Vests= University of Richmond for those that were confused. We play them in soccer today.
