It takes a certain spark for all these grandiose, groundless thoughts whizzing about in my brain to slow for just a moment, just long enough for me to listen.

I expected little out of the whole night in regards to the setting, content to spend the precious moments of my 24 years and 363th day with some of the people I hold very dear to me.

A nice tale about the importance of family and dreams, whether the family was nuclear or otherwise. Then, I watched Good Luck.

again, its been awhile since ive written in this thingy. Dont think my little story will have much more installments, mainly due to a lack of time, and more importantly, original and gripping story line.

of the tides, thats what im reminded of right now.
A couple nights ago, lets jus say i attempted to take a plunge. It was a bittersweet moment, not worse, but not better either. All i could think was that... this was the story of my life. Yet another Hamlet dilemma, a dilemma which might have been resolved in a better light... if only maybe.

to which only a few answers are avaliable. Guess thats the whole paradox of life: the more u kno, the more u have to find out.

since i last posted here. After i started the xanga, i pretty much designated this my "hardcore" posting thingy, but nothing much to talk about as of late. Done w/ the finals now, but yielding about the same results as last sem... if not a bit worse. Essh.

yeap, this blog isnt dead. Far from it, i jus needed some good stuff to get my ranting juices goin. And w/ that... here we go...
The source of inspiration came w/ yet again... an anime. This is why i love the stuff, its really addicting when u see the good stuff. As i mentioned awhile b4, the anime is entitled Saikano, the tale of the love between Shuji and Chise.

So, i woke up, with quite a bit of encouragement from my sis, to go to mass today, even after a nite out belting out a few tunes. (i should brush up on some of my ol' favorite songs, hehe).

this wk has been full of sappiness... like none other. I've pretty much been engrossed in k-pop ballad songs for the past wk, starting off w/ kim bum soo's 3rd album. I always liked him, a sort of full-bodied ballad singer. Hes matured alot from his debut album, vocally and such. Most of his 3rd album tracks are real good, so i spent a good while listenin to that.

behold, a post devoid of Miramax. YAY. Well, anyway, this is a supplement to the post i made on my xanga site.

Skimming through this article, i think its a nice moderate, subtle criticism of the mishandling of Asian cinema on the part of Weinstein.

Miramax's Weinstein Defends His Editorial Cuts
Miramax Co-chairman Harvey Weinstein has defended his editing of films released by his company. "I'm not cutting for fun," he told the New Yorker's Ken Auletta. "I'm cutting for the s*** to work. All my life I served one master: the film. I love movies."

well, not really, but at least it was a nice extended one. To honor our veterans that fought and sacrificed for our sake, i proceeded to thoroughly enjoy this wkend, one of the few extended ones that ill get to recuperate from the horror that is midtermage... heheh.

where u can find the most concentrated form of flaming gay in the whole entire world... well, maybe jus around in the bay area, but its pretty concentrated nonetheless. Despite the impending doom that is a whole wk of midterms, i decided to go anyway. Guess this is one of those things u jus have to do, at least once, jus to c what ppl are talkin bout.

quite a while since i did an ode to anything, but this one deserves special attention, due to the extent of unprecedence and spectacular associated with it. Disclaimer to all those who read on in this post: Despite the fact that i do currently reside in No Cal, im still a So Cal guy at heart.

of a special day. It marks the birth of one UC Berk student, a wushu enthusiast and an anime nut. One who is known to be very sappy at times, and is a bit of an extreme romantic, sometimes even un-realistic. And if u dont kno by now, he has a site where he posts his many little rants on....
Yeap, so about 50 min ago, 19 years to this day, i was born into this crazy world.

well, it was randomness interspersed throughout the day. It started a bit earlier than i would have liked, well actually a lot earlier, heh. This was magnified by the fact that i went to sleep at my usual time too.

its a little phrase i based pretty much all aspects of my life around. Its also something i forgot this past month or so. I got quite the rude awakening these past couple weeks, and awakening is a pretty ironic word to use. It did kinda the opposite, draining me of physical, mental and spiritual energy. I was just crestfallen, and even now im pretty shook up.

the less i seem to understand, or the less conclusive the situation becomes. Its a certain sort of wisdom to expect that the more knowledge is gained about the world, the more u realize that u dont kno much about the workings of the world. I think that people should gain knowledge nonetheless, in order to better formulate the sort of existence that they deem to be fit for bigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-826263532002-10-06T23:48:00.000-07:002002-10-07T10:25:51.000-07:00ITS STILL PERSISTS....
and im not that tired anymore, im gettin used to this kinda stuff. Guess im gettin a little bit stronger? Or, my biological clock is adjusting? In any case, im learning to cope with that which seems overwhelming. Still not at that state which id like to be, a state in which my actions reflect my true being, my true self.

and im soo very tired. Not jus a fatigue that plagues u for a day or so. Its this constant fatigue and sleeplessness that seem to become this sort of haze that hovers around u wherever u go, and whatever u do... well, not in all cases. There r some things that u can never get tired of. And what all this culminated to this wk was the first of many midterms to come, but the first outbigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-818991922002-09-20T20:05:00.000-07:002002-09-20T20:05:25.466-07:00m4d SPLURGING...
for my taste, at least. While i was losing sleep to the likes of chem 3a and phys 8b (not to mention bio 1b, which i have a midterm in next wk, AHHH), i was spending up some m4d cash. For a guy like me, who doesnt have much cash on him in the 1st place, these were pretty outlandish purchases. Ehh, its all good, as long as its worth it, on any sort of level.

or seems like one right now. Maybe its the slight lack of sleep that ive been experiencing. Or its the fact that classes are gettin into full swing, where labs actually meet and theres actual discussing in discussion section. Possibly its the lack of exercise during the summer, which i have to make up for and then some.

I'm just watching a bad dream I'd never wake up from.

One of the most awesome, charismatic anime personalities known to man. Im honored to bear a likeness to him... hehe.

but i am almost a polar opposite of that due to the summer. Summer rocked throughly, dont get me wrong. But sometimes the greatest pleasure can lead to the worst pain. And this was trying, physical pain that i havent felt for a long time. It was almost like an ol' friend, which tried to maim and crush every portion of this withered body of mine.

this is no joke. That is what ticked me off from the time i read the article (around the same time yesterday) until now, and im still ticked, a lot more so. Yea, so i happen to chance upon an interesting article on this one reliable site i go to often. It has various snipets of news on the more anticipated releases of asian films, and one ive particularly focused on is the bigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-809884332002-09-01T03:21:00.000-07:002002-09-01T03:21:02.436-07:00A LITTLE RANDOMNESS...
b4 my next real post. Im pretty tired right now, but there was something i read awhile ago that got me fired up. And fired up in the im-goin-to-hurt-something kinda way. It had to do w/ a release of a certain movie ive been anticipating for a good while now.

and in my case, i took a whole bunch today. Yeap, so that was pretty much my 1st day of classes, fall semester 2002. To make up for my extreme laziness during pretty much the whole of last yr, including this summer, i decided to go hardcore w/ my classes and take some actual pre-reqs for MCB.

but its gettin really close now. B4 u kno it, im goin to be in MCB purgatory, paying for my summer of extreme laziness and relaxation. But yesterday, i tried to get the impending doom outta my mind by taking a little trip to SF, along w/ a couple other ppl.

well, its not so much a saga... but its been awhile since i updated, so this will be a pretty long post.

Pranav's b-day was today, and for some odd reason, i thought it was the day b4... ehh. Yea, so the night b4 i sleep at 4 in the morning, even tho i thought i was pretty tired.

pretty much sums up the past couple of days. Yesterday i was a little tired to make any coherent writting, so i decided to make the new post a two day one. That one meal above relates to these two days pretty well, even tho i didnt have anything like that today. That will be explained later... but for now, onto yesterday:

was lost today. Chick Hearn, the voice of the Los Angeles Lakers since the 60's, had entertained and garnered an immense fan base for generations of Laker fans, rather all sports fans. Chick is the father of the modern basketball lexicon (not my words, but it does the job, hehe), coining phrases such as "slam dunk", "airball", "no harm, no foul" and others.

Today was a pretty good day. Started off w/ some good ol' saturday mornin cartoons, and some MLB action. Dodgers at Phillies, and that turned out to be a good one. Shawn Green's 9th inning 2 out 2 run homer tied up the game for the Dodgers, and he hit another homer early on in the game as well.

Today mostly consisted of grappling w/ a certain bear, a Telebear, that is. Since i had till 6 PM to register for my classes, i thought i could take my sweet time, waiting until this morning.

Maybe... everything in balance, after all. Yea, so on a overcast, pretty humid day, i decide to go to the batting cages. I havent been to one of those, ever, and i havent batted in ages.

I couldnt call this an ode, cause i havent finished the series yet. Ever since i watched Trigun, ive been hooked on anime. Its not cartoons, way different than that. Cartoons have a bad connotation, something lowbrow and simple. Nuh uh, anime is what i consider to be a visual art. Animation at its finest... in most cases.

In all seriousness, i love to be around little kids, whether im playin around w/ them bigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-789589022002-07-14T21:06:00.000-07:002002-07-14T21:08:34.000-07:00IN SEARCH OF A CURE...
for boredom... yeap, today was quite boring... but i havent posted for awhile, so here u go, my two cents (i spent most of my change at Nickel Nickel and Camelot last night, hehe). Boredom is quite the adversary, but i tried to combat it as best i can. But, it can lead u to do certain things u dont normally do in ur right mind.

Well, this is the end of the series... for the time being. It was a pretty eventful day, pretty interesting w/ some masked spontaneity... ull kno what i mean:
After seeing off my aunt and her family to a trip up to San Fran, i headed off to get a haircut w/ me dad. Its been awhile, my hair was gettin to be real shaggy.

Here we go, the second installment in my little series about the beach... and this one isnt even on the beach. Well, there was some sand tho, and a bit of waves, but it wasnt the beach. Its close enough:
Since Eric didnt go w/ us to Laguna the day b4, we had to take him along to Raging Waters the next day. Unfortunately, for all of us, Mike couldnt go to bigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-787231532002-07-09T01:03:00.000-07:002002-07-09T22:56:30.000-07:00CUENTA DE LA PLAYA: EPISODIO 1 7/6/02
Well, since i didnt get a chance to really post something from last saturday, i thought i would make this into a little series (even tho i really didnt go to the beach 3 days in a row...). Ehh, its all good. So, it begins w/ last saturday morning...
Before i say anything, happy b-day!!! to Shuan on this day of 7/6/02... ill make it up to u somehow....

There are things i can write about... but they're jus a little too personal, rather not do commentary here. But, heres a few quotes that might lend some clarity into what ive been thinking about... maybe...

Well, playin through one rpg with a very innovative battle system... i jus had to take a break and give a little talk about my favorite game genre of all time: the perenial RPG. The rpg is the most engrossing and interesting of all games known to man. Sure, talk about replay value... i dont mind, its not one of the rpg's strengths anyway. And even still, revistin an rpg of old isbigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-784102712002-07-01T00:54:00.000-07:002002-07-01T01:39:16.000-07:00Thus, another recap of past events, w/ a few Calvin and Hobbes quotes laced in.
Calvin: "Summer is butter on ur chin and corn mush between every tooth."
And meetin up w/ good friends... ok, so the quote has nothin to do w/ what im about to talk about, but its good enough. Yea, so the past friday i meet up w/ Kenny, Eric, Kristine, Michelle, Eileen, and Esther for a little get-together.

I smell like mesquite (mesquite = burnt plastic, lighter fluid, logs, chips, aluminum foil, cardboard boxes... ) and i still have sand in certain places. Way longer post to come, maybe tommorow, but im jus plum too tired to do it now... g'nite yall and god bless. bigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-783032782002-06-27T23:57:00.000-07:002002-06-27T23:57:34.510-07:00Jus a recap of the days events, it was a pretty nice day overall. 1st off, i met up w/ a very good friend of mine... its been a while since we saw each other. But, it was real nice to c him again, he always manages to make me laugh at something. And that guy would be Mike Gibson, my old runnin buddy in track and cross country.

Calvin: "How can something seem so plausable at the time and so idiotic in retrospect?"
There are many instances where i pondered this very question to myself. Im not goin to mention specifics, but some involve girls i liked in the past and awkwardness.... or many squabbles i had w/ my sis over absolutely nothing.

Second one of the day, but this one was a little overdue, hehe. I have a bit of free time on my hands now (sometimes a little too much), and readin through some of my Calvin and Hobbes collection, i realized jus how funny, insightful, philosophical... (it goes on) it really is. It held a diferent perspective for me this time around as well. A lot to say about a medium bigjimbo157http://www.blogger.com/profile/04707863390405240853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564542.post-782142522002-06-26T00:32:00.000-07:002002-06-26T00:41:35.000-07:00ODE TO THE RED DEVILS:
Well, not really, im not that poetic, but anyway. Yea, u cant imagine how proud of these guys, thats y today especially hurt, despite all that happened b4. Gettin up at 4 in the morning was the 1st task, but no biggie cause again, history beckons. Heading on over to a rather familiar golf course, i got ready to cheer on the Red.

Started off w/ a lil' breakfast get-together for Mark, since he's goin to Berk for summer school (btw, g'luck mark!!!). IHOP pancakes r pretty good, hence the name. Afterwards mark and i got interviewed for James' and Don's video thingy, good stuff. Afterwards, James, Pranav and i went to cyberworld to get our cs fix (me more than any1, hehe).

Its been a long time since i played basketball, or c the d-bar crew, so y not do both at the same time, ehh? So, i meet up w/ mark, john paul, james g and brian to play some b-ball at Pantera Park.

When history beckons, u have to answer the call, even if it means losing a little sleep, hehe. I woke up to the sound of my mom and dad cheering, and i knew exactly what it was.

Was goin to post yesterday, but i had jus enough consciousness to fall asleep, so here it is. Went to Six Flags with Kenny and Kirk, and has it been awhile, was really looking foward to it. Especially to those 2 new rides, oh how i waited... but to no avail.

Especially the World Cup Korea/Japan, cause history has been made. Since the game was in the wee hrs of the morning... i found out the surprising results when i overheard my mom and dad saying that Korea won 1-0 against Portugal... at around 5 in the morn, i think.

Last semester can be squared away into past records, and i can start fresh and anew. Breathing a little easier, i can appreciate fully the summer ahead of me, yay. Next sem can wait, the summer truly begins, woo-pah baby. Oh yea, i dyed my hair a little today too, jus a little info about the day.
