Game Time

Last night I experienced my first basketball game ever as me, james, ant, and Simeone hit up the Continental Airlines Arena to watch the Knicks battle the Nets.  It wasn't much of a battle as the Nets pretty much pissed all over my beloved knicks but i still had a pretty good time. The highlight of my nite happend soon after we arrived at the arena. After checking out the lay out of the arena, Mike pointed out that we were extremely close to where the knicks enter the court. Once mike mentioned that the wheels were turning and I kind of convinced them to take a walk over there and see if we can see any of the players and get some autographs. Now lets briefly rewind to before the game while waiting for the trian, me and ant were talking about basketball and he mentioned that he met michael sweetney- who is my my favorite player. He is this chubby looking guy (resembles fat albert) and he doesnt look quick but hes actually pretty damn fast. Anyway i told tony that other than him i like "the junk yard dog" Jerome Williams, "Penny" Hardaway, and Trevor Ariza. Now fast foward back to when we were at the arena. i'm standing along the rail amongst a sea of 10 year olds (which shows how sad i am) while the guys are just sitting down chilling. All of a sudden i see the Junk yard dog doing some streches. I immediately start barking b/c thats his call. He hears the bark and barks back!! Now by this time the little kids are screeming his name and beggin for an autograph. I jumped on this oppurtunity like an olympic gymnist jumps on a balance beem...full throttle baby lol.  With marker in hand i got Jerome to sign my Knicks hat (thanx Gina) then Trevor ariza comes out and i get him to sign it too!!! I was happy as a clam at this point. Its childish but for some reason it really makes me so happy  to get autographs. So being that i got two of favorite players' autographs i was set for the nite...then i saw Walt Clyde Frazier. Walt is a legendary knick who announces all the games on TV. I hada get him so right before the game started i got close and got his autograph!!!! It was awesome!!! Most of the autographs didnt come out clear but it doesnt matter cuz its not like id ever sell them Things like that represent a memorry and thats worth more than money. Sooo other than that the knicks let me down as they only played hard for about 10 minutes but whatever- they have nothing to play for they aren't going to the playoffs so i guess it doesnt matter. All and all the game was enjoyable.

Yesterday was a long day with little time to spare.  i missed my first class on purpose cuz its just a waste of time and credits. I was also stressed cuz i had 2 tests to study for and i didnt complete an assignment..so whatever i skipped it. Then i took a test which turned into a group test with the whole class exchanging answers and the teacher giving us hints. it was the most fun i ever had while taking a test. The next class we did group work and discussed a case study and fianlly in my last class i took a test which i dont think i did particullarly well but thats nothing new this semester...i just wanna graduate!! So after the test i rocketted home to try and make the 4:30 deadline to the train station which could of happend but didnt cuz the plans were in disarray so we went to seaford and rushed around the city but we made it there with plenty of time.

I like to pride myself on a few things. One thing is to always be prepared as was the case at the b-ball game where i brought a marker and 2 seperate hats (one for each team). Another example of this is when it started pouring out and i was the only 1 to have a hood..but in cases of bad weather im always prepared with gloves or whatever else. In the event of a tornado i'm sure ill be prepared for it...Another thing i pride myself on is the care i take in things i own. I like to keep my car pretty clean, i like to have my computer running smoothly and above all else i like to have my cell phone working in tip top shape. I'm not the type of guy who plays hackey sack with his phone or breaks off the antenna. So when i lent anthony my phone and he told me it wasnt working i was a little pissed off. Not at him cuz i know its not his fault but just pissed in general. My phone has been acting funny recently. Its been shutting off automatically and yesterday the pin was locked or something. So i spent much of the 3rd quater of the game trying to hack the code until i finally gave up. During this time James was being so annnoying. He kept tellin me to watch the game and making stupid jokes but i was already pissed and his comments nearly drove me to violance. I love the kid but at times i just wanna smack his oversized head with a huge frying pan (and thats putting it nicely lol). I know i was missing the game but the knicks were down 20 points and my phone is important to me! I know i dont answer it but in case of an emergency i like to have it handy.  After the game tony called up nextel for me and got the code so it had a happy ending.

Sidebar: I LOVE Aunt Annies Pretzels! I'd marry that woman in a heart beat if she promised to make me a pretzel a day..i'd even settle for 1 huge batch a month. I dont care if shes 90 yrs old and has false teeth... as long as she makes delicious pretzels i will love her till the day she dies.

I dont wanna bore u guys with more sports related stories so ill keep this short and sweet. Wrestlemania was all that i had hope for and a little more. In some parts it let me down but in others i was more entertaining than i had originally thought possible lol. Good times.

Today i was washing cars like whoah. My family has 6 cars between the 5 of us and 4 out of the 6 were washed today. The 2 remaing cars will probably be washed tommorow but i wont be around since i'm working from 8:30 till 3. Thats a lot of numbers so u may wanna reread that to make sure u got all that down.
