im waiting on laundry...i think im gonna do this post a little different.
im gonna run the worst case scenario for my team the raptors...only stipulation, no injuries.
ok lets start with chris bosh
chris bosh - under the new regime with JO now playing center this will cut into bosh's production. he'll become a 17-8 player, complacent in making jump shots and falling in love with a 3 pointer which i don't really think he has.
jermaine o'neal - toooooo easy to say he'll get injured. but what is worse than injury? maybe a ill-tempered, uncoachable attitude player who is selfish with the ball shooing below 45% for a big man. how bout turning into a 15-7 player?
jose calderon - i can't not like this guy...but maybe he has a TO prone season. that coveted assist:TO ratio goes from 6 to maybe 3 in 1 season. he gets tired from playing many minutes half way thru the season only to tanker for the 2nd half. what a bust, where is tj now?
anthony parker - hes a shooter...his shot doesn't fall, that simple
jason kapono - just doesn't take any more 3 point shots...
andrea bargnani - what would be worse that that sophomore slump? being labeled with permanent potential. he'll show flashes of brillance in 1 in every 6-7 games. enough that you'll get so fed up with his inability to realize his own ability.
roko ukic - having a pg who cannot pass a ball would suck right? nba players are a little quicker than their european inferiors.
jamario moon - it would suck if he just can't handle the ball...can't handle it to drive nor grab the alley-oop pass.
joey graham - he actually becomes brilliant but decides to leave the team once his contract is done. that seems to be the TO syndrome
nathan jawai - i wish nothing bad on this young dude. being rookie is hard enough. |

im using my old dell laptop to write this im considering reformating this POS so i can get it fresh and new, maybe i'll give it to my dad cuz he likes electronic toys.
its been almost ONE FULL YEAR since i started school again. i mean ive been at school for 12 months practically. one thing i can say is i like learning, actually i LOVE learning. there have been times in my life where i wasn't learning or growing at all and i felt stagnant, like life was a blur, each day blended with the last so well the days became indistinguishable. at school, i learn, i love learning and im there to learn. cuz i know whati do learn whatever it may be may somehow affect the people i encounter in the future. so i MUST learn. but i love to learn too.
outside of the classroom i met a bunch of new peepz. making new friends, making quality friends hopefully, maybe 1-2 of them. but seriously new friends dont' replace old friends, nor to old friends trump new friends.
its late, like 12am or past that. i realize im writing with no real coherence, more just spitting off the top of my head. i relaize i haven't posted anything in a long hwhile in this journal, then i look at my friends journals who i have all the bookmarks for but on the wrong comp...i need to transfer the bookmarks over, i like reading my friedns entries. it goes a little deeper than what i think a facebook would have.
facebook is just evil in electronic internet form. haha i'll keep away for as long as possible.
i miss some people, like i really miss some people. like i have 2 people in mind big time right now. i guess having those 2 people in my life, i guess those 2 people have been life changers in my life. i miss those 2 people a lot. somehow they both make me a better person.
then i miss other people too, like im back here in oakville just doing my thing, like its summer timebut i dont see these people, my friends. its difficult.. i mean some of these people, wow theres a lot of them but they all made such a big difference in my life in such a short period of time, just lending their friendships out to me...i got a taste of some true friendships then gone. peepz just go all over the world doing their thing. i guess thats me included. but i miss peepz.
funny story, my dog apparently a week or 2 ago so i was told caught all these burrs in his tail...my dad takes them out usually after walk. i guess thats a good sign cuz he's getting walked. but then i was told maybe not all of them were out, or his tail was itchy or something...so he started chewing his own tail...so much so he chewed pretty mch the length of his tail, most of the hair off...so right now his tail is kinda pathetic looking, really thinned out. he also swallowed all the hair which prevented hiim from eating for a few days thus he didn't poo for a few days then my dad took him for a expensive vet visit where they did blood tests and x-rays on him and couldn't find out what was wrong. then he puked all the hair out and he was back to normal. canada has yet to extend its universal health care to the dogs.
i watching sicko on the weekend. i know its biased. but few things i picked up from the movie. 1. how americans were poisoned with the thoughts that socialist universal health care is very poor and doesn't work, mind u the poisoning was by their own government. 2. yes the movie was biased, im sure if i went to cuba, uk, france that i wouldn't get teh same treatments as all those who did in the documentary, but it goes to show the contrast between amaerican health care system and other universal health care. 3. i think the problem with most health care systems (canada's included) is that they don't do enough preventative care. preventative care you may not see the effects directly, so im sure policy makers have a difficult time selling preventative care...but preveantive ccare can be so much more helpful, like more patient education and the promoting of helathier lifestyles instead of strying to sell the lateste fad diets and popping "magic pills" which will "cut the fat".
another revelation...my dad is getting old. i can see him being a very old and grumpy man. i think its hard for him to accept the fact he is getting older as well. but he needs to start taking care of himself more. and maybe he should retire as well. i know he worries about me and my brothers, but i think once adam is done university, he shouldn't have to worry anymore. like i cantake care of myself and whatever debts i'll get...
im getting old too. my body just isn't what it used to be, and im saying this NOW!!! i can't beleive it. my knee or hamstring or whatever is running behind my knee cap hurts like a biatcch when im crouching and bending it...i need some PT fast on it cuz i need it to get better. i think its a wear and tear injury form dancing so much which makes me beleive sometimes my dancing days are numbered...
dance its what u make of it.
i htink i should sleep, i'lll put more word vomit up here soon. |

ok i have 15 minutes before now and my late night study session with the latest gf i got. this one is named "pharmaceutics". so im just gonna rattle off random thoughts for 15 minutes and probably type a lot of crap.
i had a great american thanxgiving minus the sex in the theater incident during the movie enchanted maree's family was great hosts im so gracious for their hospitality and spending time with my brother when i get it is invaluable nyc was crispy cool i got me my graf hat i have coveted for a long time and michael Ks (not michael Js) did a great job on the hat i did my first black friday as well which was an experience up at 4 am shop till 6 nap up at 8am shop till 1 back to the house eat turkey then tryptophan induced itis coma only to wake up at 6 just in time for dinner you know it was a eating marathon that weekend i think i gained weight but i guess its almost winter and its getting colder i surely need the extra layer of fat which ive been trying to hold out on since being in america kurt then again spoiled me with cooking stew peas which is instant gratification on my taste buds and probably the first time ive eaten ethinic food since the summer i had a lab practical on tuesday which went alright or horribly bad one of the two i guess i wait for the results now i learned i had to study an entire unit just this morning for an exam i have tomorrow so ive been in frantic study mode and doesn't help i drank a mountain dew at 7 at nite just to stay awake so im gonna be up till 230ish i believe trying to study this one out i also got crapped on by the massive amoutns of crows that live outside at nite that live in the trees the very most tallest trees on campus kinda like in a alfred hitchcock movie freaky birds lining the trees and i agree with jared we should flamethrower those suckas cuz they create a mess on your car as well as graffiti the path with their uric acid feces everyday
other more random thoughts props to G cuz Hes amazing also i hate those crows, raptors win raptors win raptors win, some people at this school are time burglars other people are too nice asking to be stepped on by others im looking forwards to graces party i just cant decide what to get as a gift to bring hmmmm im gonna start being a little more active maybe running more and dancing less my back is kinda sore but more like a tugging pull on the upper lower part of my back and i have super tight hamstrings which are asking to be pulled or torn if i over work myself tomorrow i skip lots of classes and i guess im paying for it now i hate group projects just cuz peepz i work with are lazier than me or they have social loafing when they do less work as they assume the slack will be picked up by the resto f the group just being in albany i feel like its a test maybe not so much directly but little things such as giving notes to other people or something like that who take advantage of your kindness but then depend on you for something they should be doing theirselves i feel you should do your own work its you who got you here in the first place and i can try and help you but im going to do you work for you also tests in making decision and trying not to be corrupted or influenced by other people and standing up for what i feel is right and not waviering in my own decisions trying to make opinions and start thinking for myself trying to do what is right although it may not be popular but because its what i believe in and trying to be a better person everyday sometimes i feel like im not going anywhere i cant see the progress but i guess you grow a little everyday oh random change of though i like helping the kids at the boys and girls club i dunno why i have this attachment to them but i do and they are great kids and its a great place to go to ok another change my fantasy bball players suck cuz they r inconsistent
ok well over 1115pm i should go to the washroom and get ready for crazy study late nite time!
