Pinch me I’m dreaming

@Baristgg @SaintsGamingCA @Chris_Funston @TheEsportsProf We will miss you man, thanks for all of the memories 🇮🇹

My time at @SaintsGamingCA has come to an end. I want to thank everyone I met during these amazing 2 years, especially @Chris_Funston and @TheEsportsProf, for taking a chance on me and giving me an amazing opportunity and a job. I made countless memories that I will never forget.

Just finished listening to all 3 albums from Drake tonight. There’s some decent tracks but when we are talking about 41 new songs there are bound to be a lot of misses. I feel like some tracks will grow on me but overall, grouping all 3 together this was a 7/10 🧊

@Varsial11 @Chris_Funston Was a pleasure working with you Carl gonna miss seeing you around 🐐

Two weeks ago marked my last day, as a student at St. Clair College. Although a little late (lol), I wanted to make a post about my time at the college so here goes a long post. TLDR: incredibly grateful to everyone I have met during my time at St. Clair, and I am looking forward to what the future holds :) These past two years were without a doubt the most amazing and fulfilling ones I've had in my entire life and I couldn't go without thanking the people who made it all possible. I originally came to St. Clair with the idea of competing in Valorant, not really knowing where it would lead me. After a year of uncertainty, facing ups and downs while juggling school, it became clear to me that I had to pivot. I attended my first LAN event last summer, Frag 19, to help out with broadcasting. The sheer passion, ambiance and community present at the event truly resonated with me and I knew I wanted to keep going. At that time, I chose to commit my second and last year at the college towards broadcasting with 200% effort and it immediately felt like the right decision. I could go on and on about describing my journey, but it would not have been anywhere near possible without everyone I met along the way who truly made this experience memorable: First of all, I have to thank my esports teacher, David who was the one to show me the ropes of broadcasting while acting as an excellent mentor throughout my entire time as a student. Next, I want to thank @HybriddVAL for giving me all of those broadcasting opportunities in the first place. I had quite literally no experience coming into a big event for the first time, yet he still gave me a chance and we were able to continue working together on so many other events. There will be a lot of people involved in this section (and I will forget some sorry in advance), but I really wanted to highlight and thank everyone who contributed to the feeling of family that we were able to develop within the large esports group. From the people involved with the marketing team to the first-years that kept getting involved in the broadcasts to all of the players on our teams, it was always a good time coming in to work on a stream, no matter the circumstances. @PhazerCS @notreallyevan @Smoke_Casts @swagstudios13 @lollexkk @White_Widxw @embered @llekaeru @Schwammmm @AdrianMalhiers_ @MiraicleLoL @thermalrex @Baristgg @Haise_720 @kirimitosa @mimiQ2506 @yoogeecasts @abruxgg @ChronoCreative I've said it before and I'll say it again, but this entire experience wouldn't have been possible if this program didn't exist in the first place. For building this program from the ground up with such an amazing vision and mentality, massive thanks to @TheEsportsProf, @Chris_Funston & @SilverNyx_. It is quite fascinating what a sheer amount of work these three individuals do on the daily to deliver opportunities to their students. Lastly, I just wanted to say that I am forever grateful for all of the people I came across these past two years. I got to attend so many amazing events, meet new people, discover and learn so many new things, which just felt incredible. I truly believe that I met some individuals who I know I will call friends for the rest of my life and I could not be more thankful. This isn't the end, only the beginning of a new chapter. Until next time, St. Clair💚

@Smoke_Casts no.

I LOVE AKRON AND I NOW LOVE R6 BIG SA ON TOP 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

@yoogeecasts Isn’t every Valorant map technically also outside to some degree? By that logic how could you ever mental chalk?

crazy how much hopium you get injected into you just by going outside

It’s just too easy for y’all. Whole team of 🐐s undisputed 💪🏼

@lollexkk @TheEsportsProf @SaintsGamingCA @MiraicleLoL @llekaeru @embered @thermalrex @Schwammmm @PhazerCS Congrats on graduating Lexi! Keep killing it in the scene! 💪🏼

@yoogeecasts My sweet sweet pov goal replays 😫

sad to see a goat gone

It is kind of crazy to think of how we’ve really ramped things up here in the past year. Privileged to work day in and day out with this talented group. Love y’all ❤️

We just gonna act like @Hotancold didn’t help M80 win a damn major last year? 🤯 it’s one bad split not to mention with Ashn just getting into the system. Esports is the worst for this, so many cases of dumb changes being made when letting a team build chem just isn’t thought of.

@YoBoyCue Aye I know I’ve only just worked one stream with you Cue but you gotta be one of the most talented and animated casters I’ve ever heard. All the best wishes for you and your family, and I hope things turn out for the better for y’all soon. Keep going strong dawg. 💪🏼❤️

Ive been struggling mentally a lot lately Kiddo spent over a week in the hospital to kick off the year, and while we seem to be healthy now...we've seen just about every pediatric specialist there is in the last 4 months, we still aren't eating, we've fallen behind even further on our development markers because of it. PT and OT every week...it feels like so much at times...but at least otherwise we seem to have a happy and healthy toddler at this point My best friend got sentenced to a year over a stupid mistake back in March. My partner in crime, the one who would help me keep my mind off things while everyone else was working and doing the usual 9-5 thing most days was no longer around...and the silence sucks most days ngl The esports industry continues to do it's thing....and man does it get freaking exhausting somedays Not posting for sympathy or anything....I just know I havent been nearly as active, especially with streams and content April has been a nice bounce back mentally. It had been nice to be busy again. And admittedly, before the weather broke for spring, seasonal depression had a stranglehold on me Got some plans for the youtube tho, and I wanna get "Cue and A" off the ground as a full blown podcast Time to get back to work💯

YEAHHHHHH 💪🏼🇨🇦🦅🇨🇦

VERY LONG THREAD INC Through my mere one year here at St. Clair I've met and interacted with so many people that have not only changed my life but helped me figure what I even want to do for my future. I was and sorta still am a person who is very confused about what I want, 🧵
