Ramblings about Various Things

Sleeping In

(Baby Koala Bear Sleeping) 
Sleeping in Today was Amazing, it was the first day since I got in Colorado that I wasn't up before 8 AM.
I woke up at 10 today, and then just laid in the bed for 2 hours: AMAZING!
Hopefully all my weekends won't be like that, but this weekend definitely I just needed to chill.

Soccer
I watched the soccer game today (the second time in my life I've actually watched one, first one was USA vs UK). Unfortunately we lost, to Ghana. It would've been kool to see them continue. What I find amazing is how things look when the do replays, they like slow it down and zoom in, and it's like totally crazy like all the positions their bodies be in. Soccer is definitely no joke, physically. But this is:
 (hahaha)

Weather
It's been kool being out in here in Colorado. Today was the first time it rained since I've been here. All the others day were HOT and sunny. But it's actually really really beautiful, esp. the campus the school is on. SO pretty. I hope it stays that way, although I do need a little rain every now and then in my life.


Persons Unknown

But um, oh, I wanted to talk about this new show called Persons Unknown, airs on NBC on Mondays. It's about this seven people who get like kidnapped and sent to this ghost town. they basically are trying to escape, but they have no idea why they are there, who it is that's watching them (there's camera's everywhere). And they tried to escape many times, but they were all unsuccessful. I like the story, but not so much the acting, especially the main character lady, SO BAD.

Also another problem in like the first two episodes (there's only 3 so far), the main male is white (no surprise) but he was like seen as the leader, he was doing everything to help them escape, and the black guy (who is a soldier) was kinda like his 'slave', from my point-of-view, cuz he was like yes sir I can do that (no exactly, but you'll have to watch it to get what I'm talking bout), but I figured that was coming from him the army thing, which in a way slavery sorta. Also the black guy is Muslim, which I thought that was interesting. There's also this blonde chick, who I think was like drunk when she got kidnapped, which was kinda funny.Then there's This CRAZY lady, she was like in the psychiatric place, the rich guy, and the sketchy-looking guy. But um I'll be watching this hopefully every week. or at least catching up on the weekends.

Big Brother
Speaking of shows, Big Brother (I can't believe all last summer, I updated about that) is coming back on july 8th, don't think I'll be able to keep up with the episodes during the week, hopefully I'll be able to watch it on the weekends. There's no info on the houseguests or the house yet, there will definitely be something by next week.

Okay that's it, I don't feel like typing anymore.
PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!

GLEE

(hey I know this image is old, but it works and I didn't feel like looking for another one)

is so freaking kool and awesome! Can't wait untill the new episodes. A couple of days ago, I got all caught up with episodes ( being a college student definitely limits my amount of TV watching)

and basically glee, the story lines are kool, and dramatic and stuff with crazy love triangle, squares, but I must admit
I REALLY REALLY like the singing. I mean without the singing the show would just be about a glee club (boring...)....

And the girl that plays the token black person, Mercedes, (Amber Riley) can blow,
like pretty much at the end of the episodes I was just like "This chick is sick!" like she needs to
get her own thing going on so I listen to it, seriously.

And probably if it wasn't for her I probably wouldn't watch the show either, or at least to
me the singing would not be as good. I mean the Jewish girl is pretty good, and the guy in the wheelchair is suprisingly good (sorry can't remember anyone's names), everyone else is mediocre to me.

But yeha a few songs/videos where Amber was killin'

"Lean on Me"


"Bust Your Windows"
(think this is a repost, whatevs)


"Proud Mary"


(FYI: she does do (??) her own thing apparently)

"Sweet Thang"




that's it!
PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!!

Wish I had a creative title to go here, but all I got is RANDOMS.

song of the day: "Hold On" by Tye Tribbett
===============================================

BB Updation

Kevin won POV, he finally won something, that's good because he was beginning to look like a floater. Russell & Chima are now solidified enemies & they continue to argue. Therefore I really don't like Chima, I don't know she seems so uhhhhhh bad (that's not what i wanna say but yeah). Basically I want Russell not to go home this week, I just like his gameplay, he brings the drama so..Also, I've also come to the conclusion that both Russell & Chima are CRAZY from their constant argument if you don't like someone then don't talk to them what such craziness.

So Kevin won the POV (said that already) and Kevin is best friends with Lyida, so you would think he would use it on his best friend in the house. NO. That made me kinda upset. Because if you really wanna save someone you will. It shouldn't matter who the HOH is because she/he can't put you up. Which is another reason why I don't like Chima, she's CRAZY (wait, said that already)

anywayz here's my prediction for Thursday: Jeff uses the Coup D'ete on Russell and/or Lydia (but defintely Russell) and he puts up Jessie & Natalie. and then Jessie goes to the Jury House. yeap. let's see if I'm right.

====================================

Bingo....again.....

Okay so the Jackpot type thingy at this particular bingo was up to 7500 dollars. So I thought I would give it a try. There was tons of people there trying to win that money. Unfornately I didn't win anything and really didn't come close in any of the games (= out 30 bucks). After it all I'm just dead exhausted...believe me dabbing numbers for like 3,4 hours is tiring.....

This did remind me of a Roseanne episode that I saw recently (I forgot how funny that show is) where Roseanne got hooked on the bingo. It was too funny!
check it out here:

(Bingo is exactly like this, so close to the truth...)

====================================

alrighty then
That's it! Holla at cha later!
PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!!

Updations! Again.

Hey another day in my world....
read if you care, even if you don't you should probably read it anywayz...

VBS Updation

Pretty kool, Still really enjoying teaching the kids, some crazy stuff going with some VBS staff (heard from director's mouth herself: people showing up late, blah blah), but it's all good. It'll all be done in 2 days. Today's lesson was about Peter denying Christ (well the whole week has been about Peter and his relationship with Jesus) and basically I'm like what was wrong with this people, jokingly.

Like Jesus was like to Peter you're going to denying me 3 times before the rooster crows, and Peter's like NO, I would never to that (I'm sure he was very serious). But he sure did deny him three times. But I mean how are you supposed to respond about that to Jesus, "Yeha, you know what Jesus, I am". But anywayz basically the lesson was about forgivness, even though Peter denied him 3 times, Jesus still forgave him. Amazing. So forgiving.

But yeha that was today's lesson. I remember Tyler Perry talked about forgivness on one his plays, that's a heavy and really serious topic that people don't really recognize. People be carry around stuff against people that they should just let go, it ain't no good for you to walk around with that stuff. Forgive and let it go. Cause it ain't doing nobody no good.

And I think that's becoming more apparent for me being a teacher, you gotta realize that people are human, they make mistakes, that's the whole point of forgivness, ain't nobody gonna be perfect, we try, but we not. So why hold on to this stuff, that's pretty much gon happen anywayz, I mean if ain't one thing then it's another. but yeha....

sorry for the rambling (but this is my blog...soooooo bite me! )

BB Updation

this was the first thing I watched today, there was nothin on tv. Anywayz, so remember how I was saying Ronnie was thinking about backdooring Russell? He didn't do it (SUCKA!). I mean I kinda didn't want him to do it cuz I felt like people were ganging upon Russell and they wanted him to go for personal reasons (stupid), like he cussed Lydia out or something. And Lydia started like crying and was like "no one should be talked to like that". I think she had to be faking, you can't be expecting people to meet 12 strangers, and not expect to cussed out at some point, i mean yeha. so she wanted him out, and I'm like really?.

But anywayz Ronnie put up,Jordan (the ditzy blonde, like really she didn't/doesn't know what people mean when they say "it's a quarter till", basically she didn't know what a "quarter" is in clock time) so now it's Jordan up against Laura, both of the Popular clique. Really don't care who goes home, but of course, I'll be watching on Thursday, no Friday, I guess.

=============================================================

I don't have another topic to rant, actually I do but it's so important it's a whole nother post...
so Random Picture!

(yeha don't have anything to say....???)

PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!!!

Tee Vee

so as I said home was great...
got to lay on the couch

and sip Kool-aid...eating chicken....
anywayz

saturday night, i randomly watched the weakest link and I really missed this show....
i kinda wanna incorporate it some way into my life....
..."You are the weakest link, goodbye"
like i really just wanna play the game...
but you kno that'll probably never happen..maybe...

also because of Comcast digital cable...(sounds like a advertisement right?! it's not)
but ummm we have HBO so i watched this new series
starring Jill Scott, and Anika Noni Rose (the lesser known of the Dreamgirls)
its called

no. 1 ladies detective agency....

takes place in Africa, in I believe Botswana, and basically Jill Scott's character is a detective who solves people problems and Rose is like her secretary, also kinda detective too...
the only kinda annoying thing is the accents of the characters...they speak english but just weird African accent.

it might soon be the only black like show on tv, with the game getting canceled and all.... :(
but whatev .... i thought i was pretty kool...
aight that it

on break..

...it has been kinda awesome...at least for me
im actually a pretty lazy person so...actually being able to be lazy
is kinda awesome-ness (yes awesome-ness....look it up....)


so today i was totally watching Tom & Jerry

(see what college does...stops me from enjoying cartoons...craziness....)


i could watch T&J (yes i have abbreviated it...) for about 2 days straight..it's amazingly entertaining....

• there's like no talkin at all...cept for random screams & stuff...well other characters talk just not tom & jerry...and i'm just amazed how that is...i dont know why...though..
• it's about a cat chasing a mouse (or a mouse chasing a cat) also random run-ins (with the law) with dogs, and duck and a bird...i mean who can get more natural than that...
• also funny...i think anytime you involve animals who dont talk but walk on two legs, and a mouse who can throw, and carry rather large objects, at a cat...kinda amazing.
• the background music like goes along with the story, i think that like my favorite part maybe.... i dont know..

anyways, watch this clip...

i do feel sorry for tom sometimes...jerry's so mean...

its just an amazing show..should be back on tv...like really...nothing like that anymore (i didnt even know they showed it on tv anymore)

so i thank god for break without it, i wouldnt be able to see Tom & Jerry (T&J)...

wait...
Random Picture Time!

i'm sorry, way too hilairous...this is crazy...so funny...
besides for the fact that its a baby...


aight
PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!

Raising the Bar

Amazing show that comes on TNT
involving public defenders and District Attorney (the people), who all happen to be friends...weird huh...(or maybe that's the way it actually i...but i just dont know)

anyway...this show is amazing....kinda makes me wanna be a lawyer....
cept not...but its just that kinda show...
its on TNT (as I said already) so very dramatic, which i love....

always bringing up morality and what is right and wrong...
from the show its seems like the job of lawyer is to do
whatever the client wants no matter if its not the greatest idea,
well from the public defenders side....
i really enjoy this show though....its just amazing

stars some people that are amazing...
zach, i mean, mark-paul gosselaar, from saved by the bell (you kno)
as main character guy, a really passionate lawyer, who kinda doesn't give up for nothing

mom from malcolm in the middle, Jane Kaczmarek, as a judge trudy, she's an amazing judge, character fits her really well....

the one black guy who's been a good amount of movies that I know his face..I think he was in the temptations movie...
his name is.... J August Richards (his first name is Jaime) his one of the DA's, pretty cool

and a good other 5 people i don't know but im starting like...
so this is a good show..
check out this video....first part of the pilot...pretty kool

MY CURRENT OBESSION:

............The Boondocks....................

(love it!)

if you don't know about you should cuz i feel like i was the last person to find out
about this....its an amazing show with black characters, and defintely black language
just love it, so realistic, characters are really real (hahaha)....story lines are great....i feel like every show has a message that relates to the current issues facing the black community whether making fun of something or not....but its really good.

Voices
Regina King (227, recently in This christmas)

provides voices for Riley brothers, Huey and Riley.
can i just say she's amazing never knew she could be so funny.....love her....

The guy that played Pops from the Wayans Bros and Ice Cube's dad from Friday, his name is John Witherspoon plays the Grandaddy adds the generational element to the show, great.

AND they always have guest voices from all types of black celebrities, its pretty cool to recognize the voices.
anyways here's a clip where Huey describes a Nigga Moment (haha):

you should watch just because i made a whole post about so it must be important(and it is)...hahaha
