???

What should I do now?
What am I going to do?
Where do I go from here?


DUGY ME!

I got the right to put up a fight,
But not quite cause you cut off my light.
But my sight is better tonight and I might,
See you in my nightmare, oh well how did you get there.
Cause we were once a fairytale,
But this is farewell.

A Year Ago

A year ago today the NFL lost one of it's most vibrant and exciting players. Washington Redskins' Safety Sean Taylor was shot during a botched robbery attempt in his Florida Home, he died a day later from the injury.

At the young age of 24, Sean played with more passion and intensity than anybody I had ever seen. On the field he was known for his hard hitting style and deceptive speed as he was often a blur. I may not have known Sean off the field, but watching the response from his teammates, friends and family, you know Sean was a good soul off of the field. He was a loving father, leaving behind his 2 year old daughter Jackie whom he adored. She was always on his mind, always telling his teammates and friends about how wonderful and life changing it was to have his daughter. His teammates saw the change in him too, the moment Jackie was born, Sean was a changed man. Sean may have had some brush ups with the law early in his career but that all changed the moment Jackie came into his life.



November 5, 2007 would be the last time I saw Sean in action. It was a tight game against divisional rival Dallas Cowboys which went down to the wire. As the Cowboys were lining up to kick a potential game winning field goal, the kick was blocked and eventually recovered by Sean. Sean picked up the ball and hurried down the sidelines as the game clock winds down. As Sean reverses the field he was tackled well short of field goal range as the clock shows zeroes across the board. Game over...not yet, a flag was throw...face mask was called therefore putting the Skin's in field goal range. Snap...Hold...Kick....Game over Washington wins. It was a thrilling way to end a game but at that moment no one knew it would be the last time we would see Sean on the football field again.

It was a tragic end to not only a great player, but a great person. Sean was truly special, if anybody ever saw a down of football in which Sean played in, whether it was in college or the NFL, he brought it wherever he played. The game changing player that gave you goosebumps with every hit and made you jump out of your seat after every interception return. A year may have passed but the wound is still there, Sean is still very much in our minds.

Oh how I miss those days

I miss those days where these dudes were still tight. When Cam & Jim ran the show, with a young Juelz rawer than sushimi riding behind. Freekey doing the hooks, JR with the freestyles and the countless others who contributed. Although all of their collective work together the best they could do was go Gold with the exception of Cam's Come Home With Me release that went platinum, the crew had NY on lockdown. But like all good things, it all came to an end. Cam and Jim had their fallout and now the crew are all doing their own things. Regardless of whether they want to Dips are officially done, they are done.

I miss those days when all I listen to were these dudes. Well not at least whenever I listen to them it's serves as a good reminder of those good ol days

EDC sending messages

Now I know the whole Edison Chen sex scandal happened a while ago. He hasn't really been heard from since, but has recently resurfaced checking out the KAWS gallery. Not to mention he's still working hard (LOL) on his CLOT Inc. clothing line. Not to say what he's done was completely wrong, you got to kind of feel bad for him. Well since EDC can't really show his face to tell everybody how he feels...I think he's found an awesome alternative.

This is My December...


"My December"

This is my December
This is my time of the year
This is my December
This is all so clear
This is my December
This is my snow covered home
This is my December
This is me alone

And I,
Just wish that I didn't feel
Like there was something I missed
And I,
Take back all the things I said
To make you feel like that
And I,
Just wish that I didn't feel
Like there was something I missed
And I,
Take back all the things that I said to you

And I'd give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

This is my December
These are my snow covered trees
This is me pretending
This is all I need

And I,
Just wish that I didn't feel
Like there was something I missed
And I,
Take back all the things I said
To make you feel like that
And I,
Just wish that I didn't feel
Like there was something I missed
And I,
Take back all the things that I said to you

And I'd give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

This is my December
This is my time of the year
This is my December
This is all so clear

Give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

Give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

Just days away from December, and with that the end of another year, possibly the end to many things. Now I am not one for making drastic changes but when you're faced with a situation where change is imminent then you just have to roll with it. Whatever this December brings. Whatever this means, now and whenever. I just hope everything is going to be alright.

24: Redemption


He's Back

Ms. Hilson =)

Why would she make calls out the blue?


Hey hey hey hey don't say you will, unless you will
Hey hey hey hey don't say you will, if you will, I pray you will
I wish this song would really come true
I admit I still fantasize about you

These certainly made me forget how bored I was

Fan: Rasheed! You suck!
Sheed: Not like yo MAMA!

Mascot Bloopers

Clutch is a damn fool

"I got it"

this isn't really funny but still.

Flopping Amare

I want this book.

THE BOOK

The Macrophenomenal Pro Basketball Almanac functions simultaneously as the ultimate basketball book for the ultimate NBA fan as well as the ideal sports book for the person with no interest in sports. This book will satiate the passionate sports fan's desire to see athleticism legitimized as a cultural element extending beyond mere cro-magnon brawn.

Within the pages of this tome, NBA hoopery collides with Japanese noise-rock, municipal politics, experimental zoology, Belgian surrealism, and behavioral economics like never before. The mystical deities of this hallowed league of professional basketball are finally given the treatment they deserved, as they are scrutinized not as men, but as embodiments of our own core cultural values and insecurities.

Whereas past sports-literary endeavors have attempted to paint sports as a metaphor for life or life as a metaphor for sport, we depict the National Basketball Association as a universe unlike any that one would encounter in daily existence. The NBA is a sphere in which Indiana farmboys, housing project messiahs, African tribesmen, and escapees from war-torn Eastern Bloc countries, coalesce by the nature of their superhuman physicality. Free Darko was born to make sense of it all.

Memories Fade

Memories fade, but the scar still lingers.
Goodbye my friend
Will I ever love again
Memories fade but the scars still linger

Ughhhh...


"No matter what
You'll never take that from me
My reign is as far as your eyes can see

It's amazing, so amazing, so amazing, so amazing, it's amazing
so amazing, so amazing, so amazing, it's amazing"

This is what I do when I am not asleep...and carely bored

The edges are a little rough but it looks alright. I was reading slam when they were explaining the inspiration for their most recent cover...well it clearly inspired me too. I love jacking others ideas =)

A Quick NBA Note

So I just went through a night's worth of highlights, and there's a few things worth mentioning

1. The Hawks are "Balllllllin!"

2. As much as I love "Skip", he needs to cool it because sooner or later his antics will effect his team and may damage his rep (whatever rep he has) in the league.

3. I realized that Raptors have a lot of problems
- Lack of backcourt experience (Will the Thill, Roko....nope)
- No plan B (high pick and roll high pick and roll high pick and roll) please come up with something else that we don't already know about
- We may have the worst perimeter D in the entire league
- Bosh is playing out of his mind, but he might not have anything in the tank later on for the long haul considering the amount of basketball he's played over the summer till now
- This shorten bench thing isn't working as well as they would like (they should of kept Defino)
- The scariest thing is that this team is one bad injury away from falling apart (CB4, JO, Jose)

4. CP3 & Dwight Howard are walking fantasy league stat stuffing machines

5. Is it possible that Lebron can fly under the radar?

Tough Lost but...damn

Previously On CSI...


"Spend any amount of time around people, you get your heart broke. Treachery, hypocrisy, promise of love. Look into the mouth of a person and you'll find lies, wriggling there like maggots, waiting to grow wings. The world has gone mad. A man could kill from sun up, to sunset, and still his work would never be done." - Ernie Dell

I need a haircut


seriously...

Bored...In class...Should be paying attention


found these on NT...I hope noone from the back of the classroom can hear me laugh





A trip down memory lane...literally

The other night I drove to Pearson because my mom was flying back to Hong Kong. On the way there I got this weird feeling, it was almost like deja vu. As I turned towards Terminal 3 and pulled up in the parking lot. It reminded me of that last visit to Pearson, the very same parking lot. I remember the feeling of being there on that day. As I arrived there was a sense of excitement, uncertainties, confusion?!?. Whatever it was I was feeling that day I felt it. It was one of those "I am really excited but not at the same time" kind of feeling. Everything about that day came back to me and it stayed all the way through the trip back home...But then...that was a long time ago.

Weird

The Girl

I wish I could do better by you,
'cause that's what you deserve
You sacrifice so much of your life
In order for this to work

While I'm off chasing my own dreams
Sailing around the world
Please know that I'm yours to keep
My beautiful girl

When you cry a piece of my heart dies
Knowing that I may have been the cause
If you were to leave
Fulfill someone else's dreams
I think I might totally be lost
You don't ask for no diamond rings no delicate string of pearls
That's why I wrote this song to sing
My beautiful girl
