just to get by.

i think it's always dope to have friends call on you, outta nowhere, just to chill. big ups to colin.

as for my thursday, large work done on my part. good studying too.

big brother asked me to write an essay for him. being that he's in his final year of skool, i think the fate of him being an engineer lies in my hands.

should i take up the challenge?
did he come to me knowing the potential that i have as a great essayist?

hmm?? something to ponder. hey, least it's an easy essay. easy fo sheezy. based on bone loss too! something that im kinda knowledgeable about. i think i might just write this thing. it'd be nice to see what kinda grade i get for a fourth year university course.

peace out.

that's one messed up sunday.

woke up early. did my research. took my pics. did more research. still doing this paper. sucks ass, believe me.

other than that, kinda odd today was. hiskool and up till now friend of mine (God knows why you guys are still my friend..u know im messed up) japes called me. on a sunday. yes, today is sunday. u knew that, im just reminding you. he asked if i'd like to go for a run. whtsupwitdat?!!
mr. "sit-on-your-ass-all-day-and-do-nothing-physically-active" asked me to go for a run???

what's this world coming to?

obviously i had to refrain from doing so. i couldnt. i shouldnt. i wouldnt.

aside from that, i finally got my tax form printed out. thanks colin. no thanks to you r.j. you big jag-off.

i've been trying to print this thing for the past few weeks. i keep getting the message that i cant even view the damn file, in acrobat pdf format, cause im missing a patch.

a patch??? what the hell? when did my version of acrobat reader have a hole in it?

off to more unimportant things, the academy awards are on. i really could care less. its not even about the movies and actors and actresses as much as it is about the gowns that are worn.

guys i think just surf past the awards show to see some "rackage"

girls, i think do the same. well, in the gowns of course..to see what the famous girls are wearing.

i really could care less. off to finish this damn paper.

when will it end? i ask, when will it end?

by the way, i was kidding r.j. im not mad. stop getting mad and wondering if im mad after reading this.

i can almost picture you looking at the screen and saying to yourself, "what an asshole! that guy jay is. why doesnt he print it himself?!!" (said with taht scrunched up forehead, disgruntled chinese-like look on your filipino face) dont front r.j. i see you.

no worries. thanks for the offer anyhow.

peace out homies. new week ahead. time's passing by waaaaaaaaaaaaay tooooooooooooo fassssssssssssssssssst.

on a more important note, i wish halle berry was my wife.


mmm..halle.....mmmmmmm
im off to take some pictures
some wonderful pictures of oz!




actually, naw, im off to take pictures of mississauga, for my fieldwork in social science.

when you have no information to write to refer to, and you gotta do a large chunk of research yourself, directly, through observation and correlational studies, you gain a high regard for researchers of all type.

prior to this elective social science, "city forms and city lives", i really thought social science was a bunch of crap. boy was i wrong.

interesting stuff. social science or soft science whatever you wanna call it, is just as hard, probably even more complex, than hard science, that is, bio, chem, physics etc.

in terms of the latter, you deal with atoms and particles and cells all on the microscopic scale. in a soft science, you deal with people...and i tell ya boys and girls, the way people treat eachother is something worth understanding more than particles that realistically speaking, aren't tangible.

peace out. both sciences are required. though one valued higher than the other in our world, both are required.

well holy crap..whatta coinky-dink!

i just mention matt damon in good will hunting (see previous entry) and the damn movie comes on that same night!

it always happens like that. i should talk about free invites to the playboy mansion...or having denver the last dinosaur as my pet. something good like that.

but yea, that movie, one of my all time favourites. just what i needed to remotivate myself right about now.


he's my friend and a whole lot more!
(i hope theyre not implying the kid had sex with the dinosaur. that'd be rough)

a word about university.

first of all, im sure all who can relate, will agree, that university is truly the shit. im loving it. it exceeded my expectations coming in far beyond anything i could've ever imagined, and it continues to get better and better, faster and faster (no its not a porno movie). but now we get down to the nitty gritty...


there are common misperceptions about this place we call university. first of all, not everyone in university is smart, genius, or capable of finding a cure for cancer.

know this.

money talks and not everyone there, should be there. some people who are there should not have been let back in and some people there, shouldn't of been there in the first place.

you enter in your first year thinking, "holy shit, its hard as bricks, this place is..everyone here is gonna be a fucking matt damon from good will hunting...competition will be fierce."

that is the case, but its not the only case.

another thing, the workload of university isn't that hard. with good planning and organizational skills, anyone can excel.

i know this, believe me.

im not the smartest man in the world. ha! im faaaaaaaaaaaaaar from it. however, with some hard work, good "agendamenship" and strategy, anything is possible.

one final misconception, among the three im stating (cause there are hundreds more we could easily go through), is that a university degree will guarantee you a career once your ass is commenced.

ehhhhhh!..wrong...false...wrong.

degrees are only as good as the people who hold them. i haven't experienced this as of yet myself cause im only half way through my journey in obtaining my bachelors, however, i have heard, and i do learn from the experiences of others, which is why i share this for ya'll too. when youre gonna apply for a position, whether professional or not, nobody is gonna ask to see your transcript. noone is gonna look at your grades. getting a placement and/or a good career, whatever you wanna call it, is the result of your efforts in planning, making contacts (i.e. networking with colleagues in your field), and building bonds.

it's true, your degree is an asset. shoot, its hard enough to get a job without a degree. but yea, your degree is not your gold ticket to the chocolate factory, charlie. know this.

big brother number 2 is finding it hard to get a job right now in his field. perfect example that you're not guaranteed squat...you gotta work for it.

but hey, i know he'll get a job, hes my bro.geez. of course he will..but back to the fact of the matter...my bro just got his engineering ring yesterday. props, no doubt. he's the smartest guy i know by far. dude was getting awards in elementary from Prime Minister Mulroney for his academic excellence. i accredit my own acceleration and motivation, partially to our sibling rivalry. back to the lord of the ring, this recognition has been well earned. he went from pre-dentistry, in science, at western to engineering at ryerson. dramatic swing, but hey, everyone changes right? you gotta do what's right for you. which makes me wanna add another point..so here we go...

don't bother majoring in college or university in something you're not truly putting your heart into. i can't even count the numerous times that ive heard about people changing their majors. a friend of mine, a 2nd year computer engineer just got told he had to repeat his year cause he missed the required average by 0.2 percent. this guy is a fucking genius through my eyes, and im hearing he's failing??!!!

there's something wrong here.

i can only imagine the competition in his program. my point is, when we had to pick what program or major we wanted to go to, i could only see him doing something related to bio or chem..i dunno..something as a stepping stone to later excel in medicine. i still believe that to this day. he woulda made a killing if he decided in a life science verses techy science path. then again, who am i to judge. its sad though, cause we spoke last night and he doesnt know what to do. should he continue? should he switch majors?? his alternative is accounting.

accounting??!!!!!

nuttin wrong with business, but this guy in business???...naaaaaaaw duuuuude. i just cant accept it. my conclusion, make sure you love what you're learning. dont be forced by your parents to go into a field you dont like. dont feel the next step after secondary skool, is a direct jump into post secondary learning, just cause it's logical. it's not always the case. some people need some time off to really think. i know its hard, cause they [your parents] raised you up till this point, but shoot, this is your life. your career. your career for the next 40+ years ahead. another thing, dont ever go into anything for the dough. ever. thats wrong.

in response to the common, "yo guy, you know how much cash can be made?..you're gon' be loaded!!!", i question, "if you were paid $1 000 000/yr to do nothing all day but press a red button, eventhough you hated it, day in and day out, for the next portion of your life, would you do it?"

sometimes there's a mixed reaction, but i know the truth. noone wants to do something they aren't fulfilling their lives through. if you say you'd do the above job for the cash, youre bullshitting me and yourself. we both know you wouldn't last. believe me. you'd either kill yourself or simply go crazy. trust me homeboys and girls.

remember, skool costs alotta dough. i can even post all my bills on here if you dont believe. it takes alotta energy, alotta dedication, alotta time and alotta hard work. it also takes alotta you.

thankfully, i went into kin knowing damn straight what to expect. thankfully i love the material, thankfully, there are so many future paths i can take from it.

as of now, im a planner like i said, and graduate skool will be a reality. it will.

but hey, who knows, im keeping my options open along the way, cause in an instant, i know, that with the snap of a finger, things can change. and that's just being real with ya.

but yea, that's my thought for this early saturday morning. glad you visited, read, and wasted time here. hope that was enjoyable. hope you can take that with you and......and..........well...???............do whatever you wanna do with it.

peace out. im off to write my final paper of the year (B+ WILL turn into A or even A+ or A++++++++). holla.

by the way, give a guy some feedback (via email or aa notage), i'd love to hear from present scholars, future scholars or past scholars.


one more thing i left out, about my day, geez, i almost forgot the real purpose of this blog...i just finished midterms after two months...finals start in about two weeks. this week is dedicated to the above final paper i told you i was gonna work on. that leaves me with a week to recoup.im in exam writing limbo as we speak.

messed up sleep patterns, emaciated body & face, dark circled eyes and weight loss is what im the result of.
do the math.

i have two weeks of class left. that leaves two more ballroom dancing (pratical kinesiology courses) left; one final term paper in a class which i have a B+ which can easily turn into an A+, or if things dont go so good, anything below a B+; and 14 days till my first final exam, which by the way is weighted at 70%. so we'll see how this all goes.

by the way, dont be surprised if i've lost my humour in the entries to come over the next month and a half. im in the so called zone. in other words, most entries will probably be skool related.

for some reason, i wanna have an old wooden barstool from one of those cowboy, wildwest saloons broken over my head.

i dunno what it is, but the way it breaks over a guy's head...it just seems so crisp, so perfect, so complete.

i wanna be a part of that.


oh yea, did i ever mention that there are alotta breasts on asianavenue?
that's not a bad nor good thing, its just an observation. im just being impartial here.

earlier...dropped by the old hiskool. man that place sucks a neanderthal's balls. hiskool is nothing compared to university. holla.

two weeks of class left styylllllllll guy.
first thursday in a long time that i've had the time to do NOTHING.

damn it feels great.

Sunday, March 16, 2003

shit, i can't even sleep right now. im not even blinking. i swear, you should see me.

i dont even know what for. im thinking like a thousand thoughts at once right now. im in knots, i tell ya, knots! anyhow, imma attempt to get back to bed. i think my insomnia is coming back. this is truly fuct.

by the way, after next week, i get a week's grace period before anything important comes up. in other words, let's party. let's do something.

i dont even care if we go to a back alley and drink...lets do something. also, summer is coming up soon. actually, no its not. i just say that cause we get one full weekend of mild temperatures. see my thinking???? but yea, back to what bed (i think).
sunny
there's something about that warm weather that is sooo damn good. truly, the snow, the slush, the cold, the wind, it was all having harsh harsh effects on a brotha.

but it's all good (for now).


too bad i had to study all day yesterday though. however, it was "aiiite" since i got to hit the gym after. that's always at the top of jay's agenda. with beats bumpin in the headphones, i commenced to workout. there was this good energy in the gym that day, i swear. the sun was shining in, everyone was doing their own thing..it just seemed good. i dunno, maybe im fucked. but yea, the sun along with that warm, fresh spring air..i just don't know. im rambling..which is good. see kids, i cant even explain t his happiness. even after a day's worth of study and review, i felt like i coulda ran a couple miles. yes, that damn good.

as for now, i heard it's gonna be another good day. amen to that. two in a row, is rare...unless winter is gone, for real, from now on.

and with this warm weather, i am left to reminisce over past summer years and old tunes that went hand and hand with eachother.

it's a positive, directly proportional relationship folks.

as for now, it's music downloading time baby. today has a theme. oldskool r'n'b joints...more so, summer related...that is, on the personal tip. i'll have that playlist up here for those of you who can relate, or want to relate.

see ya, im off for prayer.

let me do my thang.

and now, time to shave....my face. not my - ahhh..never mind.

time is always well spent when youre eating a nice piece of chicken and watching espn billiard championships during the daytime.

what's that you ask? who was playing??.....

jeanette lee of course! oh my, oh my. the black widow. she looks good enough to eat.

think about having a girlfriend like her. she can play pool, shes gorgeous...oh yea...and she's asian! whoa. that's like the total package right there. jeanette lee. i tip my hat off to her, not for being beautiful (well yea that too), but for being able to kick the asses of probably 95% of the male population in billiards. respect.

she can use my stick anytime.


ok, that was rude.

haven't updated in awhile. just wanna say 21 is a dope age.

also, thanks for the barfday greetings.

whatta hump day
so this is what's goin on. im all for it. im not, however, for them trying to stop me from gettng to my lecture. these lesson(s) are crucial for friday's midterm. thanks guys.

like protesting at york is gonna do anything. protest on the highway. that'll make a bang.

york protests..been there..done that. and no, im not dr. dre.

aside from that, there's like 20ft. of snow outside..what the hell happened over night??

Tuesday, March 04, 2003

so i've been studying a lot lately. i guess that's why i can't log that good anymore. i guess im just a big geek. oh well, least i still consider you, my faithful audience.


midterms can kill a man.

you must believe this.

in other news, there's supposed to be a student strike. woop-dee-doo. a student strike...at york...to protest the war. an antiwar student strike. that makes alotta sense. at york u. the skool, notorious for striking. like striking against the war at my skool is gonna make a fucking difference.

"ohh look, theyre striking over at york. would u like sugar in your coffee?"

nimrods.

i dont even think my bus is gonna be able to get into the commons, right on campus, considering the righteous are doin their thing. im all against the war, dont get me wrong. war sucks. and the grounds for this one..well, i think theyre totally bogus. i hate to say it (to americans reading this) but your governent sucks ass. your media sucks ass too. makes you wonder why 90% of canadian media is american media. that's fucking brilliant ain't it? but that's off topic. remind me, someone, about that another time. as for this strike..looks like im gonna miss physiology and stats tomorrow morning. i should get my money back for each minute i miss. skool is expensive...too expensive. anyhow, because this so called "protest" ends at 12, i'll probably be able to make it in for health..and of couse..how can we forget??...ballroom dancing baby!!

cha cha cha


a couple more things...

1.roy jones is the fucking man!
2.those on reading week..enjoy..those gonna have reading week..enjoy..those gonna have march/spring break...enjoy.
3.those on midterms..g'luck. i feel your pain. believe me. i do.
4.i seriously gotta get my eyes checked out, a.s.a-mutherducking-p.


Sunday, March 02, 2003

Saturday, March 01, 2003

its all good
few new things..first of all...
its march!

march is the very best month of the year. its when the cold-ass season of of winter leaves, and the fresh, new season of spring comes into full effect. yea-yea!. aside from that, its the month of st. Patrick...its the month of green (for some odd reason..i think it has to do with spring/irish)..and of course..who can forget my birthday (oh yea..james' birthday too...biter)?

as for the happenings, its good to know that pakistani authorities have caught shaikh mohammed...(u guys remember my al queda shaikh mohammed impersonation??)..anyhow, thats good. good thing they caught that jag-off. bout time. now..we need bin laden..that should be the next focal-point. once we get that prick..we'll have crushed the whole cobra organization.




cobra...a ruthless organization


shaikh mohammed
(prick)


details about shaikh mohammed..if you didn't know..now you knooooww.....

in other news..dunno if you can call this news, im a damn good disciplined student. oh yes i am. feeling mighty intelligent right now..damn it feels good to learn.
