:::Sweet Shooting Stroke! Rukawa-style!:::

I just had a great game today. This is the day I first wore my Rukawa jersey but I had a bad game while I was wearing it. In my first game, I was playing center for our team against a very athletic group of opponents. I would say I'm more comfortable at playing shooting guard. The score was 15-20, I think. Very exhausting, I tell you. *huff huff*

In my second game, I scored 11 points (17 if it were the official style of scoring) and swished and banked 5 of 9 three-pointers. I removed my Rukawa jersey because it was already wet. I just want to remember this day as the day I got the 'ooohs' and 'aaahs' of the people watching. Haha!

But it was a bit ironic that my hot shooting came when I was at the limit of my stamina. I say it as 'I played Mitsui-like' after wearing Rukawa's jersey. Weird, huh?

But we still lost, 14-20. Now I know how Kobe Bryant feels after scoring so much and still the Lakers lost a game.

For me, my best shot was that sweet step-back three-pointer that swished as I jumped away from my defender. Very much James Yap-like. Haha! I have to thank him. I learned that shot through watching him in TV. Thanks James Yap! I just used my reflex as I took my shot, and boy, was I shocked that it went in!

Now I remember how it feels to be "Unstoppable" in the court. =)

If you want evidence, ask the people who played today in the court. Haha....

Date: April 30

Game Stats:
11 (17) points
No rebounds
No assists
6 of 10 from the field
5 of 9 from beyond the arc

Now that's what I call sweet shooting! Haha! =D

:::When It All Leaks Out:::

It's been a long time since I last wrote here. Inspiration struck so that's why I'm here. I never thought I'd be writing here again. Haha....

~~~~~~~

First of all, I have a 'friend' who I foresaw as who he really is and tried to accept him. However, things backfire, you know. Now, I think he's seeing me as more than a friend. I can only be just his friend nothing more, nothing less. Maybe something less if he is going to continue what I think he is doing. [No offense, but please get a hold of yourself. I really don't like where things are going. I hope you know what I am talking about. You know who you are....] *-_-*

F*ck it! I never felt so angry with myself! I think my life is gonna get f*cked! (Forgive my words, but I'm going to explode if I don't....) So many issues I'm getting involved with when I really don't want to be involved. I've never felt so depressed. Very different from what I have experienced before. I know there are people with more f*ckin problems than me but when all small problems happen at the same time, I know I'm in for a big f*ckin ride. Screw my acads. Screw my future hopes. Screw my schedules. Screw my social life. Screw my past. Screw my memory. Screw my dreams.

Can dreams come true?? I dunno. If they did, I hope that my problems will cease. What my eyes saw and see, what my ears heard and hear, what my mouth told and tells, it will never contain everything about me, everything around me. I try to be simple. However, when things happen, I know I will become complicated. When a life gets complicated, it takes great effort to make it simple again.

Out of all my subjects, I think I'll be able to pass 2 or 3 of them. I hate this one particular subject and sir *screw his name*. He said and I quote,"Magbasa-basa lang kayo, papasa na kayo dito sa course na ito." F*ck! And he gives us sophomore type problems. What the hell do you want? Less students in the department? Pucha.... Exams are said to be the least technique to measure how much a person learned. He himself said it. I know I'm to blame for a least a part of my 'downhill ride' (notice the euphemism?) but SCREW him. I hate Math53 but I really like my prof. I think I still haven't adjusted to the degree of difficulty of college with my Math. Damn! I'm starting to hate it again. I really liked it in the latter part of my highschool but I now know that I can really SUCK big time in Algebra. Maybe it's because my sked is everyday "7am class" which my mind is always half-awake. Maybe it's because I now have bad luck, eh? Maybe I'm looking at other things too much aside from acads. Well, why am I so angry now? Because I will fail people who believed in me. I will lose my scholarship and will be a liability to those close to me. I don't really like to be dependent on people much. Damn....

What I hoped, what I would like to happen became smaller than just a glimmer. Well, maybe it's just really not for me. I sucked in that department anyway. I have accepted blame before and I can accept it again. My laziness can really be a pain in the ass. I can never be a perfect person. Damn, how cliche.... My lack of effort can be attributed to not being sure what is right and what is wrong. Another would be the fear of failure. I've felt it and I now think twice when I'm not so sure of myself. I may be a very cheerful person on the outside but as one goes deeper inside me, I can become more complicated. I hate myself for feeling fear. I hate myself for being so damn hopeful. What if I'm wrong? Then all I can do is nothing. Or maybe not? Maybe I can do something.... I now feel envious of the people who achieved what they want with, in my opinion, not their full strength/potential. With some people, they don't even need one fourth of their full efforts for things to automatically go their way. Damn them....

How lucky are the people who have achieved their dreams. I hope I can be even just a bit like them. I hope I can make my promise to myself that I will strive harder next year. I feel envious with the people who are happy now. I hope I can be just a bit like them. I never thought that my life could be in as much chaos and disarray as I think it is now. This would be my life now. I will have to live with it and continually hope to get the opppurtunity to " realize my 'dreams' ". I never thought I would be so emo like this and be up until 3am in the morning today. But what I saw were enough to make me lose it. Damn.... I hate this fucked week.

Nga pala, ang bulok ng Purefoods these past few games. Tapos, sa tingin ko ay ang bulok pa ng laro ni James Yap ngaun even though top conference scorer siya. Nasaan na yung MVP na nakita ko/ng mga tao nung last last All-Filipino Conference? Anu ba yan. Pati si James Yap nasasama ko sa galit ko. Basta, feeling ko na kaya pa ni James Yap na gumaling kaysa sa nilalaro nya ngaun. Go James Yap!

~~~~~~~

Joke Time... Hehehe....

My social life is very good. I meet new people, but they're taken. Joke! Let me rephrase that. I meet new people. I make friends with them. I ask for their number.... Joke again! I only ask for their number when it is needed such as groupwork, etc. I meet new people. I hope I can meet and know more. Tada! I have friends! And now, I'm joining an org. Yun lang naman mga bago sa buhay ko. Hehe....

Yan. Mejo napapacify na yung anger ko. Damn, I'm so f*cked. Hay.... Nga pala, defensive mechanism ko yung pag-sigh. Effective yun sa aken e. Try nyo 'pag nahihirapan kayo. Masarap talaga manood ng Anime DVD's. Nalilimutan ko lahat ng problema ko. It is also a very effective relaxation for me. Nagsheshare lang....


May Have All, But Can't Have Everything

I may have eyes that see,
but that doesn't mean I can see everything
I may have ears that hear,
but that doesn't mean I can hear everything
I may have hands that touch and hold,
but that doesn't mean I can hold on to everything
I may have a mouth that speaks,
but that doesn't mean I can tell everything
I may have a brain that thinks,
but that doesn't mean I can know everything
I maybe a person who can adapt,
but that doesn't mean I can be everything
I maybe a person who can achieve many things,
but that doesn't mean I can have everything.

*bow*

:::Random Thinkeng'g.... =P:::

Hay, matapos ang mahabang panahon at katamaran... makakapagsalita na akong muli dito.

Last Movie I saw: Casino Royale
Pinanood namin ng family ko + matt sa Mall of Asia last weekend. First time kong makapunta dun. At as usual, nabano na naman ako. Iniisip ko tuloy na binabarat ng SM ung sa Lipa. Sandamakmak na buildings yung nandun. Kumain din kami sa Taste Asia. Masaya yun! =)

Last rest I had: UP Circuit Tambayan (Eng'g Bldg & at the back of EEE Bldg.)
E2 ang org na sasalihan ko, alam kong may hirap na kasama ang application (kahit san namang org d b?), pero wala akong balak mag-defer. Maraming kaguluhan ngayon lalo na sa Eng'g. Eng'gGrande kasi ang Eng'g Week! Yey! Ang sayang magpipol-pusoy. Ang galing ni Kuya Cesar! Circuit... Hayt! Madami pang events kaso may mga prof na sakit sa ulo. Ayaw tlgang i-cancel ung classes.... *peace* Naaalala ko yung Intrams namin dati nung hayskul.... Panget p ng laro sa basketball nun.... Pero hindi na ngayon. Ha!

Last Exam I took: EEE 31
Isang appreciation course lang daw. Duh! Saan ba nanggagaling ung mga given sa problems? Susunugin ko yun e. Sabi nya, magbasa-basa lang kayo, kayang-kaya nyo ang course na 'to. (*vein pulses) Halos dumugo ang ilong ko sa kakahula sa mga sagot d2. Sabi nga ni Bata, "Hindi na 'to pinag-uusapan."

The Other Exam I took: Math 53
OK lang, expected na nagulat ako sa 1st exam. Kac d ko alam kung pano mag-test prof namen. La kacng prob set e, nasanay ako kay Sir Aldrin. Baka mga 30-40 range ng score ko.... (*nosebleed) Kelangan ko na talagang mag-aral. Yet I'm starting to feel good for the exam next year. =)

Last Person I talked to excluding Family Members: Seph Cruzado
Yey! May kasama na ako sa monday! Manonood kami nung Cheering ng Eng'g Week. Masaya 'toh! =)

Last Class I went to: EEE 11 Lab
Wala lang, nag-program lng uli kame. Madali pa cya, since I had programming during hayskul. Salamat din Alvi sa tulong mo/pagkopya ko ng tags sau. =) At may rumors pala ukol sa aming instructor. hmmmm....

Last Site I Opened: Friendster
Walang magawa e.... Hehe.... Sana may milagrong mangyari.... 'Tis the season to be jolly....

Last song I heard: Sexy Back - Justin T.
Magaganda ang mga songs uli ngaun. Tinamad ako sa radyo nung mga summer e.... Maganda rin ung mga Snow Patrol, Muse, at MCR.

Last time I played basketball: Yesterday
Dapat kanina rin e, kaso umambon.... (*tutungo) Had a good game last monday, kept hitting 3point-shots. Pero kahapon, kept hitting from the inside. We won 2 straight before I called it quits. Kaya d ako nakapag-aral ng ayos sa 31. My bad.... Hehe.... After nun, kumain lng ako groggily. Tapos bagsak agad ako sa kama ng 7pm p lng. Nagising na ako ng mga 7.30 ng umaga e 10 n ung exam namin. Again, my bad. Hehe....

Last thing I read with Enthusiasm: On Seeing the 100% Perfect Girl One Beautiful April Morning
Very Interesting Piece Of Literature. Yun lang ang masasabi ko. I like to feel that kind of experience. Love is deceptive; it is hard to know if it is true love itself. And I learned na there is such a thing as 70% or 85% Love. Haha.... It's very interesting....

Last Party I went to: Pat's Pizza Hut B-day Bash!
Pat, congratulations! 17 ka na! Malapit ka ng maging 18! Hohoho! Sana nasiyahan ka sa kaguluhan natin. At napagalitan ako nung gabi.... Nasa baba ang dahilan....

Last Game I played with Friends: Counter-Strike with James, Pat and Mutt
Alam kong laos na ang larong ito pero nakakatuwa pa ring laruin ito pag marami kayo. Kasama na jan ang o2jam at Ragnarok. Pero kelangan kong pigilin ang bisyong ito. Kaya ako na-late sa klase the next day ay late na kaming nakauwi. Mga 11.30 na ata un. Pero I still had a great time. Galing talaga ng team-up namin ni James! Nahirapan talaga ang tag-team ni Pat and Matt. (*whistles) Uy! Rhyme! Haha!

Suprise of the week: Nang biglang umuwi ang parents ko sa Lipa nung thurs.
Naiwanan akong mag-isa bigla. Kakagulat nga e. Nagtext lang sila tpos pag dating ko sa bahay, parang naging ghosthouse. Pero ok lng. Sanay na ako sa independent life. Hehe.... Since hopefully malapit na akong magkalisensya. Kaso laging nasa kanila ung sasakyan. -_- Well, walang magagawa, sa kanila nakapangalan e.

Pagod na akong magsalita kaya naman, sa susunod na lang. Ang mga mangyayari next week, mukhang masaya! It all starts on Monday! =)

:::On Various Changes in Life:::

The second semester has already started and I am quite at a loss. Haha.... I got my pre-majors (Math 53, EEE 11 & 31, Chem 16) and a GE (English 1). We have programming in EEE 11 so I want to say thanks to Ma'am Russell and Ma'am Obre for giving me a headstart/intro for that course. I hope to improve on my Math. Ma'am Teng! Help! Itayo ang bandera ng mga 44 peeps na taga-upd! (puro kinapos kame sa US at CS) Hehe....

We returned to Lipa yesterday, stayed at my lolo's place. Watched PBA and Manny Pacquiao there. Had a fun day. Too bad we didn't go to any mall.... -_- I hope to start driving after Christmas break. Yey! And I also hope to get a haircut by then. For now, I need a headband. Hehe.... My hair's too long, even longer than the time I was in Danzzone. Speaking of which, hindi pa ako nakakabalik ng DLSL at si Matt ay nakadalawa na ata.... -_- Congrats to Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao for giving Filipinos something be proud of again. Go Purefoods, lakas n'yo talaga!

My injury is starting to heal but I still need to wear an ankle support. The tryouts is said to be within March. Hehe.... I beat Matt on a one-on-one last friday, 15-13. At yun ay dahil lang sa wala kaming magawa.... Haha.... Jowk. I have to get better. =)

Well, sinipag lang ako ngayon pero nagpupuyat na naman ako.... Hay.... 'Til next post! =)

:::Tracy Steps....:::

Even though my right foot was involuntarily limping, my body didn't seem that unfit. Those shoes are really giving me luck. The shots I took while practicing we're good. On the other hand, the shots I took in the game were not so good except for that suprise 3 point shot that swished through the net. Well, as I hoped, my game is definitely improving. =p But the remaining problem is my damn ankle.... Hope it heals soon....

:::Eh!? Not so much....:::

Jump Shot - A type of shot that involves jumping. Is nearly the same as the Set Shot except for that movement. Most often used when a player is a considerable distance away from the basket.

Ummm... The tryouts are suppossed to be by next week and this damn ankle of mine is still, if not slightly, sprained. I'll just have to try tomorrow.... May T-Mac bring me luck....

I've bought a DVD of Naruto so Migy, I'm not gonna nag you anymore about borrowing. Hehe.... It's up to episode 183, I think. I'm also waiting for the third movie to come out with subtitles. I've been also watching a series "House" and I think I'm gonna be stuck at it for a while.

I just watched (because I haven't played it as a whole) the ending of Final Fantasy 8. I'm also playing Valkyrie Profile as entertainment for my boring life. Haha.... Looks like an affinity for cool video games will always be with me even if I grow old. They're my substitutes to a thick story book. Hehe....

Ummm.... I think my sked next sem is a bit messed up. I have an afternoon class on Saturdays. So bye bye sweet long weekends! (poetic tone) Damn.... But the good news is, I passed Math! Yet somehow, my sked for Math 53 next sem is 7.00am MB306. It's the same room and time last sem! Well, an early sked might be good because for the past few days I have slept at 2 or 3 in the morning and wake up between 1 and 3 in the afternoon! It may have resulted from the excess boredom I have. However, I have wished for this vacation long enough during the first sem and I'm somewhat thankful that it has arrived.

Well. That about wraps it up. My life's still okay, if not, screwed. Haha....
