Something I found in my note drafts on facebook on July.6, 2008:

"Getting ready to party but something has always lingered my mind that just will not go away. What's up with this problem thats becoming blown out of control. No longer is it a tiny little spark but instead a wildfire of hell. What have I done? What made me do such an action? Jumping from the good side to the bad side in an instant. Now everything is changed. Not one thing the same. the passion has become a mere chore and now another problem has arisen. Who would've thought that would happen? Mistake after mistake the problems just keep on rolling in. Sure I can say sorry but that can only go so far."Sorry doesn't work anymore." Have I really used that word that much? I must be well over my head then.."

With the year coming to a close soon it's a real eye opener on all the mistakes I've done. All the people I've hurt and the cost of each of their pain. The image of me destroying their lives and that image melted and permanently stuck into their minds. 2008 has been a rough one. I'm sure I didn't get it as bad as some people out there but hell did I get a horrible year also.

It's another Christmas Holiday

It's a joyous thing! Let the angel's sing! Christmas 2008 this year seems to be different in it's own way. I just don't feel the old christmas spirit. I myself this year didn't exactly get anything exciting but I was just happy to be able to enjoy company with my family as I've been so busy with all the activities that I do. Hanging out, Basketball, Bowling, Work, it just seems I've put those all before family so much this year that I've forget what it's like to be with them. Although it didn't feel like the typical "Christmas" event I haven't been happier just spending time with my family. Getting to see my sister's face and reaction when she found out I bought her an iPod was pretty cool haha never have I seen her get so happy in a long time. She's had it rough especially since she got her ipod and shoes originally stolen (and if I ever find out who stole her ipod and shoes, their ass is mine.)
Well now I would like to tell you a tale of a Christmas I remember from the past. It's probably the reason why this year's Christmas wasn't that great. Basically It was the night before Christmas and I was very busy. Getting the house ready for the good ol' celebration and getting ready for the coming of a special person. Christmas Eve my family, her and I went to midnight mass at St. Andrew's. Truth be told that might've been the first midnight mass where I didn't even think of falling asleep. I was kept awake with her elegant smile and sparkling eyes the whole time. As soon as the mass ended I assumed that we were to bring her home but to my surprise my parents let her come over and stay a bit longer. Sadly her mother wanted her to go home really badly, but amazingly my mom was able to negotiate enough for her to stay over. The funny thing was one of the presents that her aunt had given her earlier in the day was pajamas. It had been a while since I last pulled an all nighter, or at least close to one in a very long time. But spending the night with her made time fly fast. We would talk and play with the newly acquired nintendo wii and just have a grand old time. Never had I had so much fun on christmas day with someone. That same day was our 1 year anniversary. Today would've marked our 2nd if I wasn't an idiot this whole year... Well that is my story.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Death of a Dream

As of right now I am no longer on the Senior Boys Basketball team.

more info will be posted when available..

Dec. 28, 08:
Well I am to this day still on the team. Here's a question for you people, Ever heard of a Captain that starts in the 3rd quarter of a basketball game every game and plays for about 4 mins max the entire game?

Answer - Anthony Tuliao, Senior Boys Basketball Team St.Patrick's

last first game

Today was my very last "first game" in high school basketball and what a bust it was. probably the worse start I've ever had in my life. A measley 5 points to start my season off. I know I'm not suppose to be upset of what I've done and it was my fault for making stupid mistakes on the court. but to take me off the court after 2 mins of play and making one mistake in the 3rd quarter I'm out for the rest of the game? I know my role of being a leader on the court for being captain. But how can I help lead my team when you throw me on the bench. You just showed me today that "captain" was just a title you threw on my name just to make me feel good. I'd rather not be captain and be getting minutes. Looks just like last year all over again for me. Sitting on the bench waiting for an opportunity to play. I seem to be captain of the bench if anything. Oh and by the way, guess what? After today my parents have quit on me when it comes to basketball. Thanks I really wanted that too happen.

a new day

it's always great when you get a day off on a saturday. Being able to just chill and not worry about the time. But being able to hang out with the best person in the whole world on her day off? That's even better! So the day started off with a trip to west 4th. A lot of great places to buy clothese there. I was about to purchase a LRG jacket but unfortunately my cheque hasn't kicked in yet. After walk around for a bit we decided to head out to Zulu Records. I've never been in there before but boy was it amazing. They sure do overprice the hell out of cd's/LP's/ and vinyl. But if you look hard enough in the used cd's section it's just awesome. The one cd she had been looking for wasn't available in the "new" section. But carefully looking through the used pile I was able to find the cd that she wanted the "love movement" by a tribe called quest. That sure is weird eh? It only took a few cd's and I found it! In total though she purchased a hell of a lot of cd's and got it all for a great price. As the day became darker we then travelled to downtown and just walked around like we usually did and stopped by only at the American Apparel store on granville. I think the best part about this trip was when we were able to eat sesame chicken and noodles. I haven't had good chinese food in a long time haha. Considering how a great a day this has been being to go to richmond to chill with my friends made it perfect. Eating "screamers" a combination of slurpee and soft serve ice cream is a neat idea but not something I'd like to have on a daily basis. To end the day off for a perfect day we watched the movie "forgetting sarah marshall" a food for thought kind of movie in my opinion. Well since I'm tired i basically only summarized what had been done. I didn't bother to post the imperfection of today but to those who I've told it sure is something worth wild to laugh about.
cheers.

PS Thank you for cleaning up my blogspot ;)

11-14-08

One of my least favorite days I think I've ever had so far. Always thought I would look forward to having a day 2. But every bit of it seemed like I was being cock blocked. Here's what happened:

H block:
for once I decided to open up my microsoft excel hockey pool and add more data and mr. Holowka decides to have a break from excel. So the one time I'm determined to create such a tedious task he completely dismisses it and tells us not to bother with it? That's horrible! Oh well at least I found the car I've been looking for, for a very long time on craigslist. a volvo 740 turbo for only $600! everything is working with about 185,000 km's on it. I email the guy asking if it was manual or auto( That shall be found out closer to the end of this blog).

E block:
Geography class. Why am I so good at Geography? It's pretty funny how mrs. Anderson has been so disappointed in me for the last few years about my marks being so low in her class and the class she seems to expect me to fail in I'm prospering. I know a B isn't that amazing but from my perspective thats pretty huge especially in andersons' class. Even with all the success I'm having it still doesn't change the fact that I absolutely hate all the stuff we have to do in it. But whatever everything gets harder in life, not easier.

F block:
Possibly the small glimpse of sun that decided to come out for me. Thank God for Stencil Art. For the first time ever in my life I felt like I was excelling in something artistic. With a pose only a capable dictator can create it was only neccessary for me to spray my stencil face on the colour Red. The only thing missing from the spray art was the hammer and sickle. I was finally able to relinquish such anger I've been bottling up for a while. The reason for hammer and sickle was to remind me of the problems that I've had and how I want to dictate everything in order for things to be put in its' proper place. Yeah this is pretty stupid I know.

E block:
The boiling point of my day. Sometimes bitches need to learn to shut the fuck up and not judge if a person is capable of holding a position or not. PE is one of my favorite classes ever. Basketball is a sport that I love. But if I'm going to play with people with no such skills in the game of basketball (no offense to majority of the people) what makes you think i'm ganna try? Maybe incase they didn't notice, I didn't give a shit if I missed some shots because I didn't care if it'll go in I just threw it up. When I got blocked I didn't even jump up as high like I normally do. So it was only proper that I got blocked. I wasn't even running up and down the court I passed to my teammates because I wanted them to feel included because I'm a pass first kind of guy.Someone who likes to make their teammates feel welcomed and wanted to be on the team.But to say that I'm not capable of being a leader? A captain? Look at yourself. Can't even hold your team together if you tried. So don't talk to me about being a captain and how I shouldn't be one. Watch this season because I'm ganna be such an extreme threat to even players of the AAA level that their ganna wonder why I landed in such a shitty school with you. I worked hard to be the captain for my team and I hold the leadership qualities that a person like you is incapable of.

After school:
Now the sun has finally come out for me. Thanks to that special someone I was able to end this day with a smile instead of anger. Thank you very much :). I really needed that or else I probably would've done something stupid and killed something. Seriously. It felt good just to be able to relax and just chill. Nearly a day that I've been waiting for in a long time. Sadly it was cut short but thats okay because tommorow... THE SKY IS THE LIMIT! of the possible things we can do. Thanks for being there for me when I'm in need. I feel like a child now haha. I shall blog about our day tommorow alright cutie ;)

cheers

glimpse of the past

As I was walking around downtown before I picked up my paycheck I decided to stop by the local footlocker to check out the current line up of basketball shoes. Since it was the season I thought might as well. As I was looking through the massive selection of kicks one certain pair got my attention. For those of you who know me well I used to be a sneakerhead. Up until the "hypebeast" was created. Well anyways the very shoes that caught my eyes were the jordan 6 rings in the concord 11 colourway. It was ALMOST a dream come true. It may be the closest things I'm going to get to my "holy grails" of shoes. I hadn't had this feeling in years about a pair of shoes. I knew I had to jump on it. So once my paycheck gets approved I'm COPPING those. totalling my jordan kicks to 6.Funny how these shoes are called "6 rings" My last pair of bball shoes in high school with one of my favorite colourways of all time. What would really make me happy is if they release it in the "space jam" colours. Now that would definately be dope. Sure would be nice to get back in the game again. But like I've told myself "There are way too many hypebeast now a days that don't know shit." Thanks to the hypebeast I find the Jordan 3's mashed up with air force 1's. Jordan 5's mashed with air force 1's. What the fuck is that? Thanks to you faggots wearing your fake ass kicks nike was forced to make those just to stay in demand. In my opinion diminishing the Jordan legacy. But whatever now. Sneakerhead is the past. Shoes are just shoes.

petals on the sea

can you handle the distance as hard as it may seem? What distance is considered too far away from your loved one? Personally I can't stay very far. You can say that I'm like a puppy. Very sad without it's owner. Yeah that sounds whipped but it's all good. Not many people may be able to experience this feeling but boy when it happens you do not want to let it go away ever. Lately i haven't been able to express how I feel. I like(hate) to personally introduce you to "lovers block." When you know you are capable of loving that certain person but just cannot express it for some strange reason...

Just like when petals float on the sea the love is there but is it going to get to the one you truly love? It ain't enouogh to say "I love you" today. You need to give it your all day in and day out. I'm ashamed to say that I've been half assing myself in such a manor that it discourages you. You deserve much more than I've outputted to you.
