Logitech Webcam...

My family is eons behind as far as technology goes. Hell, we've always been. We didn't get cable connection/modem/whatever you call it until 2006. We didn't get a flatscreen monitor until this year. So yeah, don't be surprised at all that nobody here has a mac or a decent webcam haha. So yeah, don't hate on these grainy ass pictures!

After weeks of being sick, I've finally been well. I got to hold Jayden this past Saturday, but I got to hold her again tonight. So, I put this webcam to use. It's actually my oldest brother and sister-in-law's. Their lappy broke, so they just installed the webcam on here this past Monday I think. Anyway, here's a few pics of me carrying the cutest niece ever with my mom in the background trying to make her smile haha. Videos will be up in a bit.


Yawning.


Resting.


Smiling.

James Flight White...

Like I said in my away message a couple of weeks ago, the NBDL dunk contest >>>> NBA dunk contest. Here was some footage of James White. I hope an NBA team picks him up that's in need of some athleticism. Perhaps the Suns go run up and down the court. I mean what is there to lose? They'll probably get more fans to go to games if anything. Thanks to DraftExpress for the videos.







Oh yeah, I can't leave a dunking post without posting a highlights mix of the best dunker of all time: VC. Some may call him Half-Man, Half-A-Season, but to me, he's still Half-Man, Half-Amazing. Click on the video so that it opens up in its own tab/window. Then you can watch the HD version. "Did you seeeeeeeeeeeee.... Veeeeee Ceeeeeeeeeeee?"

imeem....

There's an imeem player at the bottom of the page now. --EDIT: It's on the right now.-- Thanks to Labson for putting me up on how to add that crap. I suck with codes and what not. Anyway, at first it was just a bunch of 90's hip-hop, but I eventually added some recent hip-hop (mostly 'Ye) and some other stuff I love like Mraz, JJ, and Lykke. Let me know if it works! Kiesha told me at a certain point it was just playing 30 seconds of some songs. She said to just fiddle with that little button next to the 'repeat' and 'shuffle' buttons. Enjoy!

Oh yeah, Happy Ash Wednesday! Lent is upon us.

I guess I'll think about what things I'm giving up and taking up tomorrow. Hopefully, I can catch a mass time.

Give Us Free...

Finally, Starbury is a free man. I hope you do well wherever you go. One of my favorite players ever.

Inside the Actor's Studio...

I've been watching these all day... These are a couple of my favorites. Dave speaks some real stuff at the end. Watch it if you got some time along with the rest of the interviews. Great way to kill time.



This one with Conan was great, too. I learned a bunch of things I never knew about him... like how he went to Harvard and how he was a writer for the Simpsons for a little while.

Happy Birthday, Dad...



Thanks for everything. I love you. I wish I can say that to you in person, but that's not how our relationship is built. May God bless you with many more years of health and happiness. I promise I'll finish school soon so you and mom can finally retire in the Philippines.

1/2 Cents... New Home... Drake

I'm sorry, Lil' Penny. I'll have to pass on you. I'm very sad about this. I gotta save up for California. I'll get you one day : /


My oldest brother and his wife finally got their house. There's a lake in the back... finished basement... 3 or 4 bedrooms. I'm very happy for them. The kids can finally roam around and not get in trouble for it haha. I'll miss them. I admit, I was happy at first because I could finally got some peace and quiet. But then I realized it's pretty sad actually. I'll really miss their hugs and running and yelling and stinky smells. With that said, they're moving about 2 minutes away.


I decided to give this dude Drake a listen. I've heard a lot of hype about him... as well as read a lot of hype. Thanks to my old high school friend Mike Redmond for hooking me up with a link. Dude is not bad at all. I'm pretty much feeling each track. I love the remix with Lykke Li for "Little Bit" since that's my girl and all. My favorite song is definitely "Best I Ever Had."

Cutie!

Nikki's duck. Bangin'!


My shrimp. I was blown when I saw it because it was 29 bucks, but once I really looked, there was a lot of shrimp in there and the flavors were very strong. Loved it!


Alan looking at the desert and Nate playing on his phone.

Farewell, Jett Favre...

It was fun while it lasted. Green Bay had it good for 16 years or however long he was on there after he played for Atlanta. Your efforts were appreciated. I still remember the tingling sensation I got in the first game of the season against Miami when he just threw the ball up. Anyway, I hope the Jets can draft a promising QB. Our late-season collapse still makes my heart ache.

Good Saturday....

I had a pretty good Saturday today. I haven't had a laid back Saturday all to myself like this in a long time. Usually, I get caught up with doing something for the youth. There was a household today, but I didn't go. I just really really really needed this break for once... with all the stuff going on that select people know about. I've just been annoyed with a couple of people this past week, so I chose not to return any calls or texts regarding some things. Monday to Friday is for school. Everything else is put off for the weekend.

So yeah, today. I left my house at around 11:20 to try and get to MD by 12 noon to play football at Accokeek East. I got there by 12:15. Unfortunately, nobody came but Joe and Nikki. So, we ran around, did laps, and exercised just so we wouldn't waste the good weather and the good company. We chatted it up on a bench for a while in the nice combination of breeze and sunshine. Some old ladies were doing laps with their dogs. Each old lady that passed us was so polite. It made me smile that people still ask how others are doing even if they're strangers... because some people I know don't even ask me how I'm doing. They go straight to business.

Anyway, we got done running and chatting by 2:00. Then, we went back to Joe's house so he could get his wallet. We went to Wendy's to eat breakfast/lunch. Nikki and I tried out their new fish sandwich. It was really good. I don't know if it was better with cheese or not. I added cheese, but Nikki didn't. I just know it was really good dipped in sweet and sour sauce. After eating, we went to confession at St. Mary's. That was very uplifting. I hadn't gone to confession in about 3-4 weeks... which is my longest drought in a whiiiiiiiile. I usually go every week... and sometimes on the weekdays too if Alan or Kiesha are invitive. The priest there was awesome. I was in there for about 10 minutes. I've never been inside a confession room for that long before. He really internalized my sins, analyzed them, and then gave me feedback and advice. It was really great. I would drive to MD just for that type of confession each week. But yeah, after that, we went back to Joe's house. I told him and Nik that I just wanted to chill outside and sit on the porch. We chatted about random things again until it got a little bit too cold. I was mad sleepy, so I took a nap on the couch. Alan eventually arrived. Then we all got hungry and went to Osaka. I drove of course haha. Our meals were great as usual. Man, I love Osaka! Miso soup, salad with ginger sauce, salmon skill rolls, dinner boxes, hot tea.

Then yeah, we paid the tab and headed back to Joe's house. I'm glad I had my 90's hip-hop mp3 CD. Everybody was rapping along to classics and what not.... Electric Relaxation, Flava In Ya Ear, Deja Vu, Big Poppa, TROY, It's All About the Benjamins, I Wish, Gin and Juice, Protect Ya Neck, California Love.... etc. Then I took a quick nap in the basement as they played a couple of video games. I think they one was called 1942 while the other was called Nazi Zombies or something haha. And now, I'm home. Farewell!

Triple-Double... NOT!

NBA subtracts rebound from LeBron's triple-double
By Official Release Posted Feb 6 2009 4:02PM

NEW YORK -- The NBA announced today that a statistical error was made during the Cleveland Cavaliers-New York Knicks game on Feb. 4 at Madison Square Garden.
Cavaliers forward LeBron James was incorrectly credited with a rebound with 39.3 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter that should have been awarded to Cleveland forward Ben Wallace. Due to the correction, James finished Wednesday's game with nine rebounds -- one rebound short of a triple-double -- while Wallace ended with two rebounds.

The Lord is My God....

Thanks, Nikki. I never thought of looking up the meaning of my name before, but Nikki did.

It turns out my name means "the Lord is my God."

Coooooool! I'm really proud now. I used to be insecure of my name because of it's similarity to Allison. But now, it's pretty kick ass haha.

Lykke Li is the Truth...




Lykke Li - "I'm Good, I'm Gone"

This one isn't the official video, but it's cool nonetheless.

I love her album. It's called "Youth Novels." Dope album, dope videos. I know I'm late, but whatever. I know there has to be someone out there that's later than I am haha. Enjoy!

Short People...

This song is too damn funny.

Summit...

It is now 4:58A.M. I got home about 10 minutes ago. The summit ended abruptly at 6P.M.
-I left about 24 hours ago. I got to Joe's about about 5:45 to get my health mix. I started feeling sober again at about 4AM yesterday, so I'm thankful it didn't last that long.
-A trip that was supposed to take 4 and a half hours back and forth ended up being 8 hours. I had to take Francesca to Katrina's house which was a massive detour.
-It should've been 260 miles altogether back and forth, but I ended up driving 370 miles today. Damn it! I used up one whole gas tank and a little extra.
-My car is so freakin' messy because the kids eating in there and just leaving crap. Act like I don't care about my car or something! Respect! Sheesh.

As for the summit:
-It was cool seeing people I hadn't seen in a while.
-Vince and Jeryl are cute together haha. I hope you don't read that, dude. Gay!
-I'm feelin' the assembly and household books they got cooked up. Put me in for an order.
-Pre-Con got moved to May 30th. That's my birthday. That means I'll have to delay Disney World and San Diego for a day.
-I was so tired from not sleeping the night before. Thankfully, I got some sleep in the right corner of the room behind the chairs. Thanks, Kuya Mickey, for the heads up.
-"It only takes one." - Vince
-My group was a trip.... mostly Matt, Rommel, and Kirk. I damn near lost it way too many times. That girl Kim from DE/PA was like you're really annoyed huh? Yes, yes I am.
-I got good advice from a couple of people regarding what I should do with a certain brother. I'm on it!
-Mark and AJ, I'm really thankful for them coming out to the summit. They could've been elsewhere that day, but instead they chose to accept the invitation to lead and be a part of something great. Thanks! They're my ticket out! Just kidding haha. I got a couple years left in me.
-Involve ourselves with a parish.
-Involving family in events is really important. But unfortunately for me, my parents are in FFL, so it's not gonna work out haha.
-Delaware is dead! I thought Manassas was bad haha.
-We left so abruptly... not appreciated.
-I'm guilty of the coffee. Woops!
