Basketball and Work MAdness

Well, I've had a lot of things that I wanted to write about, but you know...laziness, lack of time and other stuff get in the way. But i have to write about today's adventures. Short hand styles.

1.) I'm mad at my TA:
I think she is TOTALLY bullshitting me when she said, "i didn't do anything..." because our computer is now making funkdafied electrical sounds. I used that computer this morning to create worksheets, and it was fine. I even used to check my email during my prep period, then the last thing I saw was her looking at some website for ringtones. I heard her drop her book, and then loud noises. I asked her what she did and she told me, "i just put my book on the desk and it started making that noise."
WTF?


Umm, she so did not just say that. I've dropped my binder, my bag and my book many times on top of that desk and not once, NOT ONCE! did it ever do something like that. So, I think she's lying to me. I think she downloaded something on to it and doesn't want to fess up. So now I have tech problems coz i can't print from my place (no paper) and I can't print from there (busted computer). Bullshit yo. Now I have to bring my laptop to work.

2.) Books
Part of a committee in charge of selecting new books for our department (well, the district) and today I shared my experience with my students. I love them this year so much. I love them every year, but I feel like more of them are trying to kiss my buttocks more and oddly, good for them. Too bad I don't grade based on likeability. I grade based on work.

3.) Random
If a student says, "there's my wifey, that's my wifey..." as i'm walking by, what does that mean?

and last but not least...

4.) THE COOLEST WEBSITE EVER!
Only because i've been cable tv deprived, and have had no access to the world of live time sports. It's boring watching the news and reading ESPN. So tonite, I found this website: http://www.tnt.tv/sports/nba/overtimeYAH09_live.jsp

Oh yes, my pretties, that was one of the dopest links I have ever stumbled upon. I got to watch the whole lakers vs. trailblazers game online! With a mosaic view - that is adefinitely a plus. I'll be watching sports via TNT website from now on.

5.) My Fantasy Team
I realize that in my rash decision making, I picked up some pretty terrible players. So tonite, I spent some time re-evaluating my players and have a (sorta) new list:

Monta Ellis (suspended for some time. stupid.)
Peja Stojakovic
Derek Fisher
Mike Dunleavy
Pau Gasol
Mickael Pietrus
Andris Biedrins
Brook Lopez (taking a chance on a rookie)
Thaddeus Young
Gilbert Arenas (broken)
Jameer Nelson
Grant Hill
Antonio McDyess
Rudy Fernandez
Cuttino Mobley

There you have it. My Tuesday. and now i must go sleep for I have fulfilled another thing - going to the WArriors Opening Game tomorrow nite! yay

sleepy.

It may not seem like I did much today, but I sort of did. I guess. Anyways, I went to Fort Point, and actually went INSIDE the fort, and omg - i felt like running through the halls. But of course, I did not. yet.

Then I had a NBA Fantasy draft, and sadly - my team isn't as good. I forgot Monta Ellis is suspended for awhile, and i have a couple of players that I am unsure of their status coz i didn't have time to read up on them. But here is my draft picks:

Pau Gasol, Peja Stojakovic, Monta ellis, Derek Fisher, Andirs Biedrins, Mike Dunleavy, Michael Pietrus, Ben Wallace, Thaddeus Young, Gilbert Arena, Carl Landry, Jamieer Nelson, Grant Hill, Jason Kapono nd Erick Dampier

Tada.

ok. now i go sleep. more later.

HOME!

So...

I'm at home. ha! unfortunately, my reason for being home is the same reason i was home last Friday and that is due to sickdom. booooooooo!

The past week was very, VERY interesting considering that i started out fine, and then ended up in crying on Friday morning (well, not really crying, but you know...frustratedly crying) that I was not feeling well. There were many very random things that happened last week that I personally thought were hilarious. Let's see if I can remember despite all this sickness...

Sun/Mon - Umm, kind of drama-ish, but what's life without a little drama? HAPPY!

Tues - huh. I honestly don't remember what the heck happened on tuesday? oh dear gulaman, how did that happen? oh wait...well, the students were taking a test and I saw this millipede hanging out in the front of the classroom, just making circles. I figure it was chasing itself or something. Anyways, can I just say that they look really, really gross? I decided to be good biologist by saving it by taking it outside. It, however, was very reluctant to join the wild. It kept jumping off the paper I was carrying it on, and the students ended up watching me the whole time instead of taking their test. I guess I am much more amusing than wanting to have to pass their test. Anyways, I finally got mr. millepede out the room and shivered. Damn. That was one ugly mofo.

Wed - I tutored after work and laughed the whole time, while feeling the itchiness in my throat. I ended up going to Starbucks with my friend, and then home to watch the debate. That in turn lead to me not watching the debate due to the fact that my phone was being abused by others wanting to contact me. It ended up I watched about maybe 25 minutes of the debate - in total. John and his friend picked me up, and we headed out into the city to discuss what it would be like to change the voice of your GPS pal. I mentioned it should be with a Tagalog accent, and we elaborated it into how it would yell at you for not making the turn it told you to make. calling you stupid and such, you know what most Filipino parents might tell you when you do something stupid. It turned out to be one of the funnest weekdays I've had in the longest time because of the conversations, and probably the three mai tais i consumed ahhah

Thurs ahh yes. The sickness of it begins. My favorite is what I did in third period. Oddly, I woke up Thursday morning feeling pretty damn refreshed, actually, I woke up at 530am even. Go figure. I decided to go to work early, and I got some things done. It was cute. Somehow, when I'm sick, I become...very ditzy. I start to say what I'm thinking outloud, especially if I get frustrated. I also tend to make a fool out of myself more, and in all honesty, I'm not sure how that happens. So, the funny story of the day, which i will share later.

Ok. that's all. For now. Friday I got sick. I was scolded by our secretary, and well instead of getting scolded again - I am home. online. about to go back to sleep and rest. that is all. now go do your work...

p.s. i also decided to make my photoblog open to public again :) it makes me happy.

My random weekend....again.

Why is it when I try to sleep in on the weekends, I fail miserably? Always the case every single time. Oh, well.

So, unlike last weekend with the craziness adventure of wandering the bay area like true nomads, I kind of stayed within the area due to my lack of funds. Yesterday I woke my buttocks up early and headed on down to Golden Gate Park to meet up with my friend, Woody. He was a volunteer at the Breath for Life race, which I intended to participate in, but forgot. We ended up walking to the D. Young Museum (where I just went for the first time last weekend) and up to this infamous tower I've heard so much about. All I can say is, "I should have brought my camera." I literally gasped as I stepped off the elevator to see such a beautiful view of the sunset/richmond district and the Pacific Ocean. It was like a (semi) 360 degree view of the city, and I was in awe. Woody had been there so many times that he sort of rushed me, but realized...I WAS AWE STRUCK. damn, beautiful and definitely worth going back to, which I intend on doing next weekend because of a cool event going on there. Maori tattooists will be there doing actually tattoos on people who've registered to get them done. I was almost tempted to sign up, but I don't know what kind of design I would want. There's also going to be a cool exhibit of a bunch of things from New Zealand, so I definitely want to go. It'll be a fun event.

Anyways, after that we headed on over to the Academy of Science. Being a free member is cool coz I get to go in whenever I want! We sat at the aquarium spots for a bit, and wandered around up the living roof, which was alright. It was definitely NOT as breath taking (view wise) as D. Young, but it was dope to see how all that plant life is thriving like crazy! I also got to see those vent things kinda adjusting itself. haha After the lovely museum madness, we headed over to the inner sunset where I purchased new shoes (again), but they are super cute! No Lie. They are super expensive (also, not a lie) so I will have to utilize them to the max. I did have a weird incident with the worker in there, but i'll let it slide.

Did some work, spent some time reading old stuff i use to write, and then talked to my sister for awhile. it was pretty chill.


And that leads us to today....

Once again, up freaking early, but in an angry state of mind. Not entirely sure, but I felt mad from the dream I woke up from. Don't you hate it when that happens? ANYWAYS!

1. I was bored out of my mind. I never really go on Facebook that much and do stuff on there, unless it's for flair or status updates. Especially with work and not so much of a fan of it, I hardly use it, but because of my early rising...eh, I browsed around.

upon my browsing, I stumbled upon an application called "My House." It's build your own house, and it sounded interesting since I've been contemplating on this whole buying a house thing. So, I add the application only to find that I get 1,000 credits to buy my first house. What are my choices? A beat up shack, a tent and a trailer. I was thinking, "wtf? that's it?!" coz there were other options, but I couldn't "buy" them. I was kinda annoyed, so I decided of the three, I thought the tent fit my personality more. Plus I can just pack my tent and move to another place, right? hahahah

So, I buy the tent. It's cute, and then there's an option to buy decorations and such. I notice the only things I could really buy are tumbleweed, dead grass, dead weed, a broken grill and the signs for the presidential elections. I was like, "dood. are you serious?" At this point, I only had 500 credits left (my tent was 500), and so I bought...dead grass. LOL i'm totally making it now!

sooooo, there's this other option where you get to "battle" how cool your house is to others. I decided, "why not?" and of course, I was competing against the beat up shack. I was like, "dood. i'm so gonna win, my tent rocks." So I click the button to see that the freakin' shack won! LOL so i did a re-match. denied! I was so over it, that I turned it off, but laughing in the process because I am so entertained by my tent and dead grass.

2. Anyhoo, I decided to ask Bunks to go eat lunch and we did...at Ocean Taqueria. I don't know how this happened, but I accidentally ate a piece of foil. I'm even amazed as to how that happened, or how I allowed that happen? I dunno. All i know was I was super excited to eat the chicken burrito. I was chewing, and then swallowed the bolus (hahaha nerd) and realized something was stuck in my throat. The smoothness and after taste was metallic like. It started to scratch my throat a little bit that I told Bunks, "I think I swallowed a piece of foil." and he looked at me kinda like, "wtf?" and "only you." I drank some soda, and it moved on down the digestive track of happiness. But I was in awe. Go figure. Only me, right?

The rest of the day was kinda chill. Went to J-town with Sensei and black bear, and then went to fort Funston for the first time. It's actually got a pretty cool view of the city, and there's a walk way to the beach. I had no idea it was like a little dog park! Well, anyways, I saw some sea jellies hanging out on the sand and took a picture of them. cuteness. We went back to Starbucks, and did some work. Ate at red robin, and then here i am writing this blog. well, i've been home for over an hour, but i had to take care of some stuffs, which i'm still not done with either.

So, that's my weekend. Next weekend should be fun since my friend from SoCal will be here =)
