American Idol is back! And this year has hella talent! Seems like there is quite a few out of the top 24 that could straight away have record deals....who's your pick??? I dont think shes gonna win, but my votes and support are going to little miss Thia Megia....for 3 simple reasons; cute, 15, and Filipina. Sometimes my Japanese nature cannot be helped.
In other news, a new addition to the Singapore scene has arrived this week. A man by the name of Adam Weimer...seems to be pretty legit. At this point I can say he is "half Jew-half amazing." Seems that a lot of good times are going to be had in Singapore.
Though the UW Husky basketball program is pissing me off right now, I will give some props to Brockman and QPON for throwing down and getting notice on that ESPN steeze....Pride (i am going to be sooo pissed if UW doesnt turn this bullshit around and win the PAC-10 tourney)
And of course I had post a little bit of that Charlie Sheen...so many great quotes in 3 minute span! So winning...
1. Pure Passion
The Brackets are out, the NCAA tournament has started, and we are a couple of days away from the UW Marquette matchup. Super excited, but another one of those situations where nobody in my office or country for that matter could give a damn about US college hoops. Another "I miss home" moment... So if any of you got some brackets going, let me in playa....Dawgs all the way!!!
Also, a big fat "fuck you" to Joe Lunardi for showing the dawgs no love in his picks....
2. Prost!
In exciting news across the globe, my team Stuttgart are playing the final leg of their Champions League matchup. If you guys dont remember, Stuttgart drew against Barcelona in their last match...which is amazing at that....However, with the next game being played @ Camp Nou, the chances of Stuttgart moving on to the next round is next to nill...but I still root for my German "chickens* and hope they get lucky.
So German lesson number 2: Alles hat ein Ende, nur die Wurst hat zwei
3. Tiger's Wood
Is anybody else excited for the return of Tiger?!? No matter what he does off the course he is still my favorite golfer and pure pimp on the links....I guess off the links as well. To me the whole scandal was stoopid, Tigers only real mistake was to get married. 30yr old billionaire professional sports star...all the right reasons to stay single in my opinion. Anyway I will be rooting for him to shut up all the critics....Get yours Tiger...the fans and sponsors will jump back on your nuts once you slip on that green jacket again.
4. Pinoy Panda
My real big homie Leonceo aka The Penning Panda aka The OHP Kid aka Chief is back at his blog (link on the side)...and is writing with fury right now. Seriously doing two a days like its pre-season Texas high school football. Check him out yo, the writing is good and the topics are always interesting. But dont turn trick and switch over to just reading his blog. I would cry >.<
I'm out! -.- v
Great game against Stanford today.....The Dawgs D was strong and fast, which made me real happy. Only point of concern was our offense in the first 20minutes. I guess the team was just a little too amped. I hope thats gone now, cause we cant afford a first half effort like that against Cal. However, the poor offensive display in the first half was soon forgotten with all the jigtastic dunks going on the 2nd half. Great show, bravo!
So big game tomorrow to take the PAC-10 tourney, and the chance to really secure a spot in the NCAA tournament. I get to watch the game cause I found a new site, www.justin.tv ... I am so happy -- where has this site been? or where have I been? I felt like an internet noob for not being in the know. Anyway its here and Im happy watching our dawgs do their thing.
Dawgs House!!!
PS...pumped for the Pac-man - Clottey fight. Pinoy Pride!
Another busy week.....so time for some updates.
1. Sorry BecksManchester United straight crushed AC Milan in their 2nd matchup in the Champions League...meaning Man U will continue on to the next round. For those of you out there counting that means Man-U humiliated the Italian powerhouse 7-2 aggregate in the first knock-out stage...and with Real Madrid also getting knocked out, the chances for the Red Devils to take it all is looking good. Plus it doesnt hurt that Wayne Rooney aka Golem is on a mad goal scoring frenzy. Getting so clinical with it...
PS...Look out for Manchester to crush Liverpool come Mar. 21st
2. Forgive me Dawgfather
The dawgs are grinding it tough right now to try and earn a spot in the NCAA tourney. Pac-10 action starts tomorrow against OSU...definitely gonna spank some beaver from the backside....dawgystyle! Look out for Q-Pon to come thru real jigerish with some nasty dunks. Tatted and ballin in the 206...real strong right now. B-r-a-cket-ology....but logically be learning these hoes biology, obviously, well....hmm Do or Die, ironic
3. Mac Relief
WacBook update: had my broke ass WacBook checked out by an aftermarket repair shop, and was quoted 400 for the LCD replacement. Still pretty steep of a price, but compared to the original 1700 that The *rotten* Apple store quoted, it sounded damn cheap. Gonna be good to have my baby back though....
"We born to fuckin die. In the meantime get money! Fuck a macbook!" - Kappa 00'
4. Oscar Bootleg
Picked up that Hurt Locker on dvd the other day....gotta love the Asian DVD connection out here...Anyway, I was interested to see what all the hype was about, and why my Navi speaking blue peeps didnt take down the Oscar for best pic. I admit Hurt Locker was pretty good, but cmon, sex in a majestic jungle while whispering sweet nothings like, "I see you" was some amazing shit. Hello!?! do I even need mention the glorious acronym, 3D!!!
5. Sluffles McGhee
The race to Phuket training has taken a beating these days...general laziness have kept me out the game for the last 2 weeks, but at least I have been hitting the gym working on those bahh-ceps yo. Planning to hit it hard next week (famous words of the lazy man) Run Kento Run Kento Run!!!! Please cheer me on. Still looking for people to come out to Thailand, any takers??
6. Done and Done
Vote for Andrew Garcia...American Idol.
-and I'm out
Its been a little busy with Chinese New Year and I'm a lazy bum, so this entry will just have some updates and random shizzle....
1. Gold Rush
The Winter Olympics have officially begun. Opening ceremony was a little swizzle (not good), the weather is horrible, and a death has given these games a bad start but I am still excited for some of the events. Two things that I look out for during the winter games: Womens Figure Skating & Snowboarding (half-pipe). Both events brilliant in their own way.
My support in the figure skating goes to Japanese phenom Asada Mao, she is Japan's little sweetheart, and I can't help but have a crush on her....she's just so pure... However, don't let the innocence fool you, she will def triple-axle Korean rival Kim Yu-Na's pretty face off, and thats guaranteed...suck it Kim-chi.
For the half-pipe event I can't get enough of Shaun White, dude is just unbelievable. A recent video that I found on youtube has gotten me even more pumped for what tricks Shaun has lined up. Here is the follow up video. Kid is straigtht on his grizzle (grind).
Support for the USA and Japan...I stay true to my roots y'all...
2. Nate-Dogg
Congratulations to Nasty Nate Robinson for his 3rd career slam-dunk contest win. Love to see former Husky and local Seattle ballers doing it big in the NBA....brings back some sweet memories...This dude gets higher than me in my college days...check the video. Sooo gnarly....
3. IT and the Dawg Pack
Finally a UW mens basketball win on the road...its been way too long, and possibly just a little too late. However, I still will keep my hopes up, and pray we somehow find ourselves in the NCAA tourney...fuck the NIT, shits embarrassing. Whose house???
4. American Idol Update
Idol hopeful and big time player Andrew Garcia has breezed thru first days of Hollywood Week. Andrew came thru with a brilliant rendition of former Idol judge Paula Abdul's "Straight Up"....check it out. By the end of it all, even my friend David Rozsnyai will become a fan.
5. Marathon Update
As a form of motivation I picked up an Ipod shuffle to kick tunes while I run deep miles. So far I am just in the early stages of training, but I have managed to drop 3kgs (6.61lbs) Still a lot more to go, but seeing some results on the pound shedding really helps with the motivation. Also I have a few nibblers on my offer to come out to Thailand....lets hope that works out cause it will be sooo live to party hard in Phuket.
6. We are the World
In the wake of the Haiti tragedy, famous 80's anthem "We are the World" is back. Recently stars of young and old have come together to lend their support for this great project. Only thing I guess sadder than the devastation that Haiti faces is that Auto-Tune has managed to find its way into this beautiful song...however, I still enjoy the new version...check it.
Thanks for checking in on the blog, and hope to have a real post coming soon. Peace, I'm out!!
The UW basketball program and I have this severe love-hate relationship thing going on...Its like they do something great, then right afterwards think of the best way to blow it, and do that...but no matter how bad they blow it, I still go back to them.
I'm a fucking girl caught up in an abusive relationship. Get slapped around, leave him vowing never to return, and then come back when he does something a little nice...repeat and return. Its a vicious cycle, and I'm not sure how much longer my emotions can handle it.
A great example is this home game win streak including tonights game against Zona. Q-Pon has been a sav, and the rest of the team is waking up. Starting to see moves like these boys actually played inner city ball. And now a win against the Red Devils, which most likely will happen, puts UW back in the PAC-10 race...
As I mentioned before this good doesn't come without the bad. I'm scared about when the Dawgs go back on the road. Will they blow it again? They haven't won on the road yet. So right when Im excited and pumped about our revived chances for the NCAA tourney, they are gonna do me dirty again. And thats just how its been.
The fucked up thing is that I know it, but I am still lifted by this Zona win...was tracking the game from work, giddy as a school girl. 30 second refresh just couldn't come fast enough. Genuine joy...oh how it makes the fall that much more painful.
I guess what I am trying to say is that I bleed the purple and gold, and I just want to see our team do well..So Dawgs pull it together, play with some heart, and win on the fucking road.
Coach Romar, can you please take me back to the feeling of when B.Roy, Nasty Nate, T-shirt Simmons, Conroy, and that nigga Bobby Jones took it to the sweet 16...shiiiiittt I'll even throw in Mike Jensen to that list. I loved that team with a passion, and they loved back...I need that right now
So lets do this!!!! Whose HOUSE!?!!?! Read More......
