Been a long time

It's been a while since I've posted on here. I had to get my computer fixed which took a week or two (Thanks HP, hah, yeah right). Besides that I haven't felt like playing much poker. I've played a few tournaments and cashed in a few. I have been playing limit hold 2/4 again and two days ago I started playing heads up limit holdem 2/4. So far I've played around 660 hands and I'm up $200 or so. The key is finding out your opponent's weaknesses and exploiting them. So far it's worked pretty well, but heads up can be very swingy and I'm not sure how I'd handle the swings.

School has been okay. The classes aren't very hard and from what I can tell, I'm getting pretty good grades. In our Sales Force management class we had to read The Greatest Salesman in the World. It's more of a religious book but I think it affected the way I think. It made me realize how important people can be to me and I'll probably look over the book if I'm ever feeling down. It's a nice motivator and makes me think.

Thanksgiving break starts tomorrow! I've been looking forward to the break all week. Because of that, it's been a pretty slow week. I don't have any classes tomorrow so I'll hopefully be home around 1PM. I'm looking forward to relaxing with my family and friends, Thanksgiving, and the wedding. This is the most I've looked forward to a break in a while. I'm just excited because so much is going on and it's good to hang out with the people that are important to me because I don't have many people like that here at school. Well, I'm sharing too much and hopefully it's a great break!
