Wow.....really?

So...sitting at work and this thought comes to my head...don't I have a blog somewhere? As a matter of fact...I sure do! I haven't wrote on this thing since March 09? hahahahaha...worst blogger ever.....I don't post and no one reads my shit. Starting today....facelift on this blog...on the real. Pictures, actual blogs, updates, videos, stuff like that.

Out of retirement??

So I am uber excited....that's right....I used the word uber. That shows how excited I am right now. Why you ask? Well....since I sense some interest, tonight starts my basketball league. I have come out of retirement from basketball leagues and make my triumphant return tonight! Why did I retire in the first place? Well, first off...thanks for being nosey and second...I've been playing in leagues since forever and my body kinda takes a toll during these games. After these games I feel like crap the same night and next morning. SO I decided to take time off from these leagues and just play ball every once in a while. So recently I got the itch to play leagues again so I got myself on a team. Once again I find myself in the lead role as the lead guard....which means..... I go all out like it was senior night or something. I take charges....I go to the rack strong reckless abandon....oh well. I like to think I play like dwayne wade on the court...by that...here's an example

Why on earth william...its just a dumb basketball league? Well...I'm extremely competitive and I hate to lose. I do whatever I can to win. If I lose...I'm an asshole and shut myself out to the world and kick little kids on the way out of the gym.

The one problem I foresee is that I think the rest of my team is crap. No worries though...I have taken worse teams to playoffs and to win leagues. Maybe thats why I have back problems....I keep on carrying the weight of my team on my shoulders...i tell them to hop on bc they;re going to the promise land.

So.....wish me luck...

Best idea ever....?

So i had a thought today...it might be the best idea ever or i was really bored and still a little kid. anyway...i have this little nook in my dining room area in which right now has roxie's food and stuff there. i was just looking there and the light bulb came on unexpectedly.

what if i put an old school arcade game there like pac man and galaga?!?!??

size wise...it fits

looks wise...wont mess anything up!

could be the best idea ever! how cool would it be to have one of those in my condo!!! just gotta find one that works since i believe those games were made in 1981....the year i was born...

not much today but....

i went to austin a couple weeks ago to get my mind off things....wasnt in the best of moods until i saw a homeless guy in the street. it didnt make me feel better that i was in my car and he was on the street but he had a sign....

"its ok, smile"

that automatically made me feel better and that had to be the best homeless sign ever. even better than.....

"why lie, need a beer"

"ninja's killed my family"

"yell at me for a dollar"

wow, that post had no substance whatsoever.... 

The end of.....soy sauce....?

So something very odd has been happening as of late....maybe the last 2-3 weeks or so.......but before i go into that, just a little back ground on "soy sauce"

i was playing ball one day and was killing it against some of the people didnt really know my name. well one guy called me soy sauce all of a sudden probably thinking 1....this guy is asian so that name is pretty funny/cool or 2. will was just too hard of a name to remember. now....ive gotten plenty of nicknames given to me when playing but i chose to stick to that one. so it caught on...people called me that in everything i did...i mean...i am pretty darn good at everything (fyi...soy sauce is good on everything too...) so long story short...william = soy sauce...my alter ego...my court name....you get the point.

so anyway....

ive been on this biggest slump the last 2-3 weeks....and dont mind if i use common cliches but i must. I have been playing like garbage in my first love aka basketball. I cannot hit a shot to save my life. I COULDNT EVEN HIT SAND IF I FELL OFF A CAMEL. now this is weird but....well...i dont mean to brag but i do have one of the most wonderful jumpshots you have ever seen. really looks like a clone of ray allen's jumper. I mean....the many camps ive been to and all the shooting coaches...you would think i'd be able to put the ball in the damn bucket. its not just that...my game just isnt on point and something is just off about it.

now on to football....i play in a couple leagues during the week but recently its been off too. I'm making a few mental errors and not making the same plays ive been making as usual. even tonight...the one i remember was a bomb that was in my hands but somehow hit my head on the way down. might have wanted to shoot myself right there. and serious....I COULD NOT EVEN CATCH A COLD IF I WAS BUTT ASS NAKED IN ALASKA. it was like i was a scrub out there for 2 games and just wasnt there. and yesterday during practice and a scrimmage.....i could just get my timing down pat with my QB.....kinda sucks when the #1 receiver sucks ass for some odd reason.

now i know what some people may be thinking...he's asian....he cant be that good. but oh how you are wrong people. i strike fear when i play people bc they know im a player. what happened to the days where i hear someone on the opposing team's fans yell out...."dont let the chinaman get the ball!" or "who the fuck is guarding him...why is he always scoring?" now where's the guy who avg over 20 pts a game in league play and got asked to try out for a semi pro team? what about the guy who was a ball hawk and caught everything around him? now dont get me wrong, i have been in shooting slumps and have days where things dont go right but damn....for 2-3 weeks. I honestly think its something upstairs....something mentally thats going on thats making me play like this. i kinda think i know what it is but....yeah....i actually think that i do.

so until then....

i proclaim the temporary end of soy sauce for the time being...not the death bc it will come back....it should come back at least. So until further notice....no more soy sauce....i will be WEAK SAUCE from now on. at least if i have that name i will do whatever i need to go to get back on the right track. 

and there....is my wednesday post....

also...on a totally different subject....i refuse to believe that pizza hut went to italy and fooled a bunch of real italian people in a restaurant to think that the lasagna they were eating was authentic. then have them clap in amazement once they found out it was pizza hut. they dont even have pizza hut in italy!! WTF....they must have known it was bunk pizza hut lasagna....

 

new things to to add on my resume...

As promised.....day 2 of me blogging for 7 straight days....

This blog is about new things I will add to my already impressive repertoire. Now i have reasons that I want to learn these things and I may or may not share them....but what I do know is that i am incredibly lucky to have the ability to learn these things....or im just competitive to the point where i have to bc otherwise i'd just stab myself with a plastic spork.

number 1....i will learn how to play the piano for real this time. its always been on my list but I will learn this for sure this year. i already have a keyboard i bought about a year and a half ago and have learned quite a bit on youtube. but everything is pointless if i dont learn it for real....like learning keys and reading music. however, i have memorized quite a bit of songs or just the beginning of them to be able to pass as a leisure pianist.

number 2...I will learn how to break dance. recently ive seen some street performers do their thing....rockets dancers taking up my gym time on sunday nights...and even fucking shaq do a little breaking. if they can do it...why cant i right? I learn quickly and got more talent in my left pinky toe than most have in their whole body. plus....if shaq's big ass can do it....my slender self shouldnt have that much of a problem. right now im learning how to do the windmill and found out its a little on the difficult side. it might be the only move i learn but it will be amazing....once i do it people will automatically think i can break (its the most popular move)...thus....no need to do any other moves. i will be the asian usher for sure after this.

number 3...im going to familiarize myself with driving a manual transmission. why i never learned this...im dont know. well i lie...I know how to drive a stick but i just havent practiced enough so im not as confident. its like me and spanish....3 years in high school and 4 semesters in college should be sufficient enough for me to be fluent but i dont speak espanol all day so im not. plus...im not spending an extra 3 million to turn a ferrari into an automatic.

number 4...I will hopefully learn how to open up myself a little more. not many people get that part of me....just a hand select few and they probably know who they are. i find that at times...it does hold me back but at other times....im glad that i keep to myself with 96.2% of things. out of the 4 things ive mentioned....this may be the hardest one. so if you see me breakdancing with a song i recorded on my piano in studio after me hopping out of my car with a manual transmission.....asked me if i learned all 4.

btw....my right elbow hurts from the damn windmill move....think i should buy elbow pads? or will that be non-bboyish?

now...what to write about tomorrow...

Things on my mind....and a little more

Soooooooo......I havent updated in quite a while and i know all the millions out there were worried (aka zero people)...so here is William with an update. And since I feel generous...I will post everyday this week...7 days...7 posts.....excited yet? I wont be able to promise they'll be anything with substance but I will post. So....dont judge me if I have a post on a thursday that says what I ate for lunch. While I'm at it....I may make my page a little more snazzy since its just a few colors here and there.

Anyway...on to my original post....

I, William, have had a few things on my mind in a past few weeks that have been weighing me down or just making my head going 100 miles an hour up there. Now i'm not going to spill everything bc.....well....you dont know me like that playa. But I have come to a conclusion or better yet a decision on just one of the things. This has been in the making for a while but recently put one of those "im going to do this for real" labels on it. 

I am going to suck it up and go get my MBA (masters of business administration....just a guess but i have a hunch thats what it stands for). Suck it up????? Why???? Here's why....  I will be working full time making the funds to keep up my life style....my mortgage for my fantastic condo, going out, bills, and you know....buying shit all the damn time....but also going to school at night.  Now I don't see a problem with that but what I'm thinking is that my life during that time will go down the drain. Why you ask? Well i wont be able to to fit in gym time, bball/bball leagues, football leagues, going out, eating probably, sleeping and just relaxing. All....very big components of Will. It will be me waking up....working....driving....schooling....studying. then doing it all over again. And what would my awesome roxie do with all that time by herself? maybe i need a new pet for roxie to play with. Why do all this you ask? Well I could give you the easy answer....bc my mom wont stop bugging me about it. The actual answer....I want to better myself and rule the world....or just make double what I make now.

But first things first....right now I am and have been studying for the GMAT. I got this gigantic book and my nights are in that making myself smart again. for some reason. I have to make a kick ass score so I can get into a good MBA program. then of course all little things like recommendations and stuff but that wont be a problem....people like me.

Now once I do all that....i have to decide on where to go. I could stay in houston bc i have a condo im paying for....family is close...familiar with the area. On the other hand....I could sell/rent out my place while i go out of state like on the east coast or something to go to school. then again....i get cold too easily and i hear they got hurricanes out there and stuff. i like mountain dew. im still undecided what to do but will just take it step by step. as of right now....probably houston but then again ive been known to make pretty big life changes in a blink of an eye.

well...thats just one of the many many things that is in my head and making me not typical william these days. some may even call me MIA but oh well......i heard miami is a nice place this time of year...(sorry, terrible joke bc im tired) and speaking of me being tired.....end of my monday post and 1 of 7 things in my head thats making it rotate on axis that is will.
