  Baseball, Baseball, Baseball.      Something that has consumed my life since I was put on this earth is baseball. 5-6 days a week and basically all year around. The sport is nonstop. Especially when you decide that you want to play in college. There's a lot more to it then just picking up a bat and a glove and throwing a baseball around. Baseball is a mental and physical game and you either hate it or you love it.         So far, college baseball has been nothing but a thrill.

  Week 1: Exhausted There's simply nothing I despise more than starting my day at 5am. You might be asking yourself, "What could you possibly be doing at 5am?" Well, I've got an answer for you: A 7-minute mile. Doesn't sound fun, does it?

What hurts most is thinking about not only the 7-minute miles I'm going to be running for the next month but also the amount of schoolwork I'm going to have to stack on top of that. I wanted to challenge myself this semester and take classes that are going to really help me get to where I want to be in the future with my job. it's going to take a lot of hard work and effort but I'm all for the grind. The second semester seems like it's going to be challenging for most people here at ONU. My friends have made it very clear and some students that I had class with last semester have ...
