I just wanna be successful..

SUCCESS - The accomplishment of honest effort, hardwork & commitment.

I wish I could say I was successful, but unfortunately, I'm not quite there.. yet. Yes I've accomplished many things in life, I'm proud of it. But when I honestly think about it, I believe that the amount of hard work I put into things, isn't that much. It may get the job done, but it isn't my full potential. Its always easy to tell yourself you wanna do this, you wanna do that, but is your mind really up to it? Are you able to keep your eye on the goal, finish strong, despite what may come and slow you down...? Is your mind and body fully commited to what you are willing to do, and are you able to work hard enough and push yourself to what you want?

In the future, hopefully soon, my eyes will open up to reality and realize that life ISN'T easy after all. It all comes down to how hard you're willing to work for what you really want...

KNOCK YOU DOWN.

"I was the class clown that, always kept you laughing, WE WERE NEVER MEANT TO BE BABY WE JUST HAPPENED"

APRIL FOOLS YESTERDAY- Me and Jason played the sexiest trick on Alessia.. HAHAHA
Let me get into detail..
So its like a tradition for me and Jason to play a joke on someone on April fools so this year we decided to do it again.. and the target? ALESSIA DAMBROSIO. HAH suckah got it forreaalll LOLOLOL. So me and Jason thought it would be funny to tell her that he liked her. So we planned stuff over night, and the next morning I was like.. "Yoo alessia I have to tell you something I don't know if youre gunna believe me though.." so obvs she gets excited and nervous at the same time. I typed it on my iPod and she obviousssllyyyy didn't believe me. Later on before first period.. I told Jason to text me during class saying things like "YOO WHEN SHOULD I TELL HER?" "DONT TELL HER THIS" "WHEN SHOULD DO I DO IT?" "NO WHAT! WHYD YOU TELL HER ALREADY OMG WHAT DID SHE SAY?" So when he texted me, I'd show her after because she sits beside me in first period LOL. oh man it worked out sooooooo goood LOL. And thing is, she was telling me how Jason asked for her number the other day, and added her on msn and stuff like that. After first period, we saw each other in the halls and Jason put his arm around her like something was up LOL (plan was working perfectly). This was the time we were supposed to tell her APRIL FOOLS. but no, Jason chilled and didn't tell her. So we were texting in class and right before the bell rings for 3rd, Jasons phone gets taken away LOL! AHAH Well yeah, there goes my April fools =)

LITERACY TEST TODAY- FREE COOKIES AND WATER YAY =D LOL DA's house after with a buncha guys+cheryl. Played ball and looked at Mr. Barber Daniel Agbuis pretty much it..

TOMORROW: OBA tournament at hoopdome, VRS. YAACE first, wanna see how that turns out!

stiff neck =(

FRIDAY: Unfortunately woke up with a stiff neck, leaving me with nothing to do but be sad about it. Looked on google for a buncha ways to take it out before my games on saturday LOL. Unfortunately again, nothing worked and I just had to wait. Tried putting a burning towel on my neck (took it off the first 2 seconds LOL), put RUBA535 cause that always seemed to work when my body hurt... sadly, no. Uhhhh, asked my mommy for a massage.. helped for like 2 seconds nd the pain came back. Basically, my head was turned to my left shoulder the whole day. hahaha. sucks right? I know. I was supposed to go to DA's that day but I woke up like this and I didn't feel like going haha. Cleaned the house for a bit, DA called, cleaned again, made food, chilled with the momma, baby cousin came over, went to promenade with my cousins and my mom.. baby cousin was crying for like 10 minutes cause she wanted to be pushed in one of those toy cars and all she could say the whole time was boom boom (vroom vroom= car) LOL. Then had practice. I don't know how I was able to run but I did. btw, my mpaa is full of little girls that don't know how to play basketball except for 5 people. After practice, went to go sleep over sams. Usual procedure happened.. let me explain.--> Sam asks me if I wanna sleep over, I say go ask my dad. Sam asks her mom to ask my dad, he says ask my mom. They come over my house, eat, drink coffee, asks my mom, she says yes. Thats basically it. haha

SATURDAY: Woke up at 8 for mpaa game at lorne park. Lost by a bit 10 or more something around that. Coach is dumb, more than half the team doesn't know how to play. W.E, we'll beat them next time. Went to sams usual boring oba practice and played with the coaches little sons. After, went to NABA game. Falcons people flopped again LOL except for benji. Got slapped, wasn't a surprise.. Sam came over and ate and yeah. To sum up my day.. I was pissed off, hurt (physically) SO MANY BRUISES, oh any my neck? its still bad. People on google lied that it would be off after 5 hours. :@

SUNDAY: Still have the stiff neck.. faced little boys that play ball on my drive way. Ate at aunts house.

ANYWAYS, ITS OFFICIALLY MARCH BREAK STARTING TOMORROW.. wonder how its gunna turn out! HOPEFULLY GOOD.

I didn't leave my blog hanging for over a month 8-)..

FRIDAY FEBRUARY 27- SUNDAY MARCH 1ST: HECTIC weekend.
-Friday: got picked up by tito lloyd to go to the ball tournament in BURLINGTON. Lost the first game, no big deal 8-)
-Saturday: game2 vrs. orillia (LOST BY 30 something?!), game3 vrs. sudbury (we HAD to win this game to go to the finals..) and guess what.. WE WON. SCARBOROUGH BLUES, thats what's up. So um that game finished at about 8:30 and RODNEYS birhday party started at 6, AND I was all the way down in BURLINGTON. Oh man, the things that went through my mind. LOL anyways, got to rodneys party and it was cool. Won't get into details because everyone already knows what happened. SO YEAH. Got home at around 3:30, PLUS I had a championship game the next morning IN BURLINGTON vrs. ORILLIA (team that beat us by 30).
-Sunday: woke up at around 11 when desirae's mom called my cell, and tins dad came to pick me up. Went to go to the convenience store to buy the SPACE JAM DRINK LOL (full throttle) and went off to the game. We ended up beating the squad by about 10. THEREFORE, BLUES ARE NOW 2/2 YE BOOY! RUB A535+ SPACE JAM DRINK AYYY HAHAH! After we won, went to go eat with tins fam and jimbo's philcan game. TIN IF YOU SEE THIS, (8)whine pon it and talk to me LOLLLLL NO HOMO
-Tuesday: BLUES FAM+ eastern commerce on COURTSURFING (the score!)

Finito!

Yay, all my exams are over finally. Anyway, tomorrow I'm supposed to go downtown with a few friends but I guess thats a flop. Whatever though, I'm probably gunna go to some nike warehouse with Sam. Then, Friday I'll probably go downtown with Tin VANS SHOPPING =) Well, hopefully that happens. She told me she would pay for my bus fare which actually made my jaw drop when I read it on msn LOLL. Well, hopefully everything turns out as planned. OH! and MPAA starts this weekend, and I think I'm playing with falcons for NABA-GTA.. wow I'm basketball crazy LOL. Whatever, playing basketball is my love so yeah I guess its alright. I'll write about my weekend when it comes.. for now I have NO SCHOOL ("thankyouuuu" LOL). As for next semester... Food&Nutrition, Math, English, Art. Oh man those two electives BETTER bring me up and those teachers better TEACH ME WELL. First Semester, I will truly miss it, and the people I shared my classes with. Vanessa, DA, Sepe, Karen Ho, Nissan Morano were basically the main ones, but if you guys are reading this, thanks for the great semester =) its too bad I don't have any of you guys in my next classes =(, but hopefully next year I will. (I'll miss bugging you guys for all my needs! LOL)
Me and DA took American Apparel pics.. clearly I look like the American Apparel Model ;) LOLL
Yeah, don't ask.. we were bored. Well I was at least, and I MADE him take pics.. actually one. =D

EXAM LIFE!!!

Yessss! 1st semester is FINALLY almost over. This semester was just so screwed, with chill teachers. Well, theres a good side to that, but then in the end it only screws you over for exams, which isn't that great. Think about it and tell me what you think.. Would you rather have a chill teacher that could care less about what you're doing in class, just chill have fun? Or one that is strict and teaches you properly, on your tail about homework and handing things in? Well, I pick the second one. I know, I'm a nerd but through almost two years of highschool, I realized that its much harder taking the easy way out. Anyways, this week is probably going ot be reall hard for me because my SCIENCE exam is on FRIDAY and I probably already forgot everything on chemistry, physics, ecology, etc. Chemistrys alright though cause I got an 80 on that during the semester. But ecology just screws me over cause theres just too many definitions to know. SCREW THAT! Well, I gotta study hard for that cause I want to do well. Next comes history on monday, pretty easy. Lastly, religion. Thats soft too =) Today, I had my civics exam and it was like a joke cause it was soooo easy. I knew EVERYTHING on it, and I learned NOTHING from dumbass aharonian the whole year. I have no clue how I'm still pulling an 82 in that class haha. As for next semester, its nothing really exciting cause I don't really know whos in my classes and MATH is in there. I really don't know what to expect for that cause in grade 9 I NEARLY failed, which is unlike me. My teacher was horrible though, I think 6 people had to go back to grade 9 math. So I can put the blame on her for that. =) Alright well I'm not so sure if I'll be blogging for this whole week due to exam studying so yeah.. PAAYCEEEEE FOR NOW!
OH WAIT HOLD ON.. let me just add stuff about my weekend..
-we beat the over hyped team that said they were gunna "eat" us.. well they didn't =) and next time we face them, we'll beat them by even more because unfortunately, everyone was off during our game except for probably me and mariah, but thats okay.
-charlie's house party.. ended up sleeping over. played hide&seek LOL pretty fun.
other pics will come later cause I'm too lazy to post. Here's the best one! LOL

"Now I'm speechless, over the edge I'm just breathless, I never thought that I'd catch this lovebug again."

damn.

P.S. I Love You

So um today was pretty much another boring, pointless day at school. 1St Semester is about to finish, and teachers are just doing random stuff to end off the course. Nothing big happened in my classes actually. But hey, that damn history that took up all my time.. earned me an 82%.. not bad, not what I wanted, but whatever. Science was and has been pointless for the last couple of weeks, and I don't know wtf to do for like 1 and a half hour in a room full of lunatics. Then I had civics, who the hell knows what were learning in there. Aharonian needs to go back to teachers college because unfortunately, he doesn't know what hes doing. Well today wasn't THAT BAD... I FINALLY GOT MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT FROM ASHLEY! LOL after like 3 weeks of loafting.. I finally got it, and gave her her present. What did I get? P.S. I LOVE YOU (the book) which is a book I'm actually looking forward to reading because the movie was so touching =( haha. PS. I never EVER read on my spare time. OH and she gave me some house slippers too they're cool (Y) OH and last thing, it was like wrapped in a HUGE tissue box-looking thing hahaha. *Thank you Ashley! Anyways, after I got home I took my regular nap until like 6 cause we went out to go to the mall. Baught Alessia's late late late late late Christmas present and bus tickets and food and food and baught another cardigan =D. I'm really looking forward to the weekend cause I have a big game vrs. Milton (the over hyped team) and 3 sweet 16s that I was invited too and I really don't know which one to go to : I guess I'll just make up a last minute decision based on how I can get to the party or not. Hopefully all goes well, and I have fun in the end =)
PS. PEOPLE THAT GOT TO GO TO THE LIL WAYNE CONCERT TONIGHT ARE SO LUCKY, I so I wish I was you right now :'( Oh well thats okay, listening to you, and only you, with the exception of DRAKE DRIZZYYY ROGERS, it will make up for me not going to the concert. :@

"OFF THE WALL"

So I'm planning on getting a buncha new shoes in 2009 with my Christmas/Birthday money. Here are my must haves:

"I MISS YA I MISS YA I REALLY WANNA KISS YA BUT I CAN'T.."

because I forgot you in washington =( I'll get you back though, if I can

find another pair! HOPEFULLY I DO CAUSE I REALLY MISS YOU! LOL

NIKE BLAZERS (any proper colour way, these ones preferably)

PS. I COULD'VE GOT THESE IN BUFFALO BUT NO, I got a 40 dollar pair instead

but whatever, they're still nice.

VANS ERA
These are probably my favourite vans cause they look so simple

but they're so nice and you can wear them with probably

anything. I'd get any colour in these.

VANS CHUKKA

VANS PRISON

I NEED YOU I NEED YOU I NEED YOU..
(GETTING THESE BADBOYS FORSURE!!!)

stressful, but FUN weekend =)

I know I've been loafting big time on blogging, but 1st semester is almost over, exams and cpts are killing me. So, the first week after break from school= most stressful one EVER. NOTE TO SELF: STOP PROCRASTINATING. forreal. Anyway, I basically came into school knowing I had 2 CPTS due the week after and it got me so stressed for the rest of the week. Bad way to start off the school year, I know. But whatever, things will get better eventually (hopefully for second semester). Back to my stressful schedule. ANYWAY, the whole last week I got NO NAP TIME AT ALL which pisses me off because I ALWAYS sleep after school, ALWAYS. SO, by the time it came to Friday, I got home and started finishing up my history cpt. I honestly didn't know wtf I was doing anymore.. Since I had an OBA tournament the following morning (8 AM GAME) I had to go to bed earlier than I wanted to, which means I couldn't finish my cpt that night which I was really planning on doing. So on saturday, I woke up pretty late and I was nearly late for my game. Walked in, Eddie gave me my jersey and warmup tee and my eyes were still nearly closed. So yeah, we won that game by around 10 maybe? But we were up by 20 at half. THEN.. Eddie asked me and Tin to go score keep another game and oh man that was even harder than actually playing the game itself LOL. Had another game after that, we won. Our next game was at 8PM at hoopdome so we went home and I was BUST. Went to sleep from 3-6, didn't even bother touching my CPT at that point cause I didn't feel like it. Won our hoopdome game, came home around 10:30 and did some more of my cpt. Went to bed, then woke up all pumped up for my SEMIS and was pissed at the same time cause in the back of my head, I knew I still had 2 cpts that weren't fully completed. As for the game, we won and advanced to the finals. THEN... we lost.. but oh well. NOTTTTT.. we smashed the team by like 20. Exciting, I know =) Its pretty sick cause thats the first time we ever played as a team. Saw a bunch of people at the tournament, had a good time over all. Saw Dez, Ashleigh, Sam, Julia, Nikki Garcia, Mariah, Dakota, Ronez my homez, and etc etc. Following the tournament came a stressful night of hardwork, but I was glad to almost be done with it. Finished my history at about 10:30PM and my civics at around 2:30 AM, with the help of my mommy =) Well, there goes my weekend, I'm just glad all the stress is over=) AND.. GO BLUES!!!

Back from where? No where =) But I'll get back to blogging soon. Just been REAALL busy. I'll come up with a new post tomorrow. Purpose of this blog was to basically post this.. its really REALLY good. But the owner thinks he's capable of doing better 8-) .. I'm sure he is though, but this is good enough for me to post.


What good does winter bring?
Aside from all the beautiful white snow
Maybe if you added up every little thing
then subtracted by how much we've grown
Then the sum of it all must be
The difference between you and me
But if you really did the math,
You and I would obviously see
That when you divide the good times with the bad
The answer is the product of everything that we had.
<3
