stupid nba.com clamping down so i can't use SDP to download...
anyways, friday's top 10 nba countdown was really good regardless of some teams i didn't want to win, winning; just wished i could actually save it; take a look if you have time:
included:
sarunas jasikevicus' no look to a cutting al harrington
rudy gay slashing and tomahawking for the and1
kobe juking then coming around yao for the dunk
my favorite rookie tyrus thomas coming from the side to swat michael redd's layup into the crowd
amare driving, juking biedrins for a missed swat, then hammers it down

Remember when you used to have to write 1-2 page stories for schoolwork in elementary school?
Made me think how long that was ago, and how it actually might be kinda fun to try creating another blogger site, then writing out a fictional novel, putting in about 1 chapter every 2 weeks, until the end of the year.
The more i think about it, the more intriguing it actually sounds. I really wanna try a hand at this.
Too bad I have no really revolutionary ideas for a story. And I have no intention of making it a sci-fi; it may have fictional things in it, but I want it to sorta be grounded in modern day type stuff. Basically, the furthest I would go for sci-fi would be something akin to Terminator.

Both TNT games i think disappointed me; injuries prevented me from seeing the full capabilities of the Hornets and the Magic. What a shame... Dwight didn't even show up.
But i did hear great things about the warriors game; baron davis is da man.

i was WONDERING when ben wallace was finally going to get 20 rebounds...
ykno, i personally believed that the way that ben wallace plays against adversity and the way he felt he was unvalued at detroit this season, that he should be averaging 20 and 5 each game this season just to show what the pistons gave up. kinda like when shaq went to the heat.
well, this is the 1st game. granted it was against the sonics, but let's see if he does this again.

harold mcgee's online journal
i had to read this guy's book for FST1 and FST10. should make a good read for you in your spare time.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~
edit: i was bored looking at my notes, and thought, ykno, with the shortage of ppl who know taiwanese, let alone teach it, this is the internet, so there's gotta be something...
check this out
if there's two, maybe 3 foreign languages i would like to be fluent in, it'd be: japanese, taiwanese, mandarin. in that order. i know a lot of taiwanese, but i really still believe it's all basic. and i couldn't recognize a single chicken scratch of it on paper. japanese is kinda cause i do end up looking at a buncha websites in japanese that i just don't know how to navigate. and you can't just throw anything into babelfish; if a website supports flash, then you're screwed.

espn.com nba message boards are have so many kobe/laker topics, it's annoying.
not that i frequently post in msg boards anyhow; used to a lot in high school, but now i just troll. if you can't add anything new to the discussion, you might as well not say anything at all, ykno? i figure most of the ppl who post a LOT on message boards tend to be attention whores. especially the ones who try to start topics rediculously fast.

i love sony, more than nintendo and microsoft, but this conference is ass...
FLIP THIS CRAB OVER AND ATTACK ITS WEAK POINT FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE!
the only system i would buy in the immediate future would be a ps TWO.
and don't expect me to buy a ps3 until the price drops like mad. (and vf5 and tekken 6 both come out)
i was never into the newest games anyways... i should be fine...
guy playing the dulcimer...
make sure you watch the whole video; he starts out slow at the beginning, then goes absolutely quick and crazy from about the middle to the end... incredible musician.

so sleepy... so hard to concentrate...

i realize that anime-wise/cartoon-wise, i really like the girl who is initially good, but turns out to be evil. how she becomes evil and the antagonist is of no real concern; brainwashing, slippery slope, etc. dunno why, it's just that i've always liked that.
edit: i probably like this because it makes the girl seem more tougher. seems like in a lot of those cases, the cartoonists end up making the girl seem tough, but it's not a guy type of tough. more like a defiant mockingly tough, where the girl is toying around with the guy antagonist or what not. just my two cents.

i knew i wasn't the only person with my name. rt is a pretty common full name for male asians i think. i think i MIGHT be the only one with no middle name though.
fyi out of curiousity, i tried this with some other ppl; bob has very low count, sam's pretty commonplace, john(in mountain view fellowship) is laughable(just try it and you'll see why i thought it was funny), jeremy's though blew me out of the water. you should try torrence's as well; made me laugh. i dunno how they get these numbers though. torrence's should NOT say that.
and i also tried some common superhero/video game names just for the rofl factor:
terry mcguinness
bruce wayne
clark kent
tim drake
nathan summers
strider hiryu
ryu hoshi
ken masters
mike bison
chun li

counter-strike NEO: white memories
seems to be some interactive series of shockwave files which are anime-style but have breaks in between where you can play. (go to the story link)
i still wish i knew how to read japanese; i can't understand a friggin thing that's going on.

10 things you may or may not know about me(b/c i'm bored of filling out my written final):
1) i'm not a light sleeper nor a heavy sleeper, but that doesn't mean i'm normal; when at a social sleepover or something like that where i'm not sleeping by myself, i take forever to fall asleep if there's any noise, and take forever to wake up and get up. i guess that also brings up the point that:
2) i'm not a morning person, but i try my ass off trying to be; i hate staying up late, but just can't pull myself out of bed in the morning.
3) i chew gum to stay awake, as opposed to drinking coffee. (chewing gum actually has a TON of health benefits; in addition to helping clean your teeth, it can help relieve muscle tension, helps you stay awake if you're constantly chewing, also can help you concentrate better at times, and keeps your mouth and throat somewhat moistened, and not dry; try looking up the facts sometime; you'd be surprised) i keep 2-3 packs of gum in my backpack(both to stay awake and to quickly clean my teeth after meals on campus), and at least 1 pack in the car(to prevent drowsiness). (fyi, if you're stuck on which flavor to buy, cinnamon is always the right way; it's not always my favorite flavor, but its sharpness usually never gets too dull, and tends to last long)
4) i pace the room more times than most people would do, often deep in thought(maybe that's why i'm never fat)
5) i seem to really like collecting stuff. this can be bad when i'm window shopping sometimes. that doesn't necessarily mean i'm a compulsive shopper. just means that sometimes if i want to get something, if it's in a line of things, i might want to get the other respective things as well for completeness' sake.
6) i'm a sucker for nature; love how the environment looks a lot, love dem animals(even animals and creatures i used to be afraid of like spiders i have huge amount of respect for).
7) i might be the only person in the world that actually eats cereal and milk separate. a lotta times, i'm not even eating a bite of cereal and immediately taking a sip of milk. i finish the cereal, then go to the fridge and pull out the milk and the glass.
8) while a southpaw, my right hand is probably stronger than my left; there's been a couple of things i could probably carry better in my right hand than my left. i do eat w/chopsticks and write with my left hand though.
9) i tend to scratch my head at the very top of my head(as opposed to the back), where the slight amount of scalp is most visible.
10) my pinkies look severely bent in, but there's nothing wrong with them; it's a genetic trait i inherited from my mother. ppl always give disgusted looks when they see my pinkies up close(IF they do; they rarely do)
