I've seen a lot of Kobe videos and this is by far one of the best I've seen. I have to give props to the guy who made it cuz he's an admitted Celtics fan but he loves Kobe. I never thought I would ever give props to anyone who liked the Celtics. O and he agrees with me and pretty every other Laker fan in regards to Kobe being the best player.
It's that time of year again. The football season is upon us. My Miami Dolphins start their season against the Falcons on September 13th. Last year we won the AFC East and we are looking to improve on that this year. My favorite player, Jason Taylor, is back where he belongs ing a 'Phin jersey. He'll no longer be playing DE, he is now a OLB. I'm so excited about this coming season. In honor of the season to come here is a video of the original Miami Dolphin fight song and the new version of the fight song by T-Pain. I know there are quite of few DolFans who don't like the new version but I kinda like it.
In the previous post I wrote about my feelings regarding politics and I mentioned that John Mayer's song Waiting on the World to Change is exactly how I feel. Here is the song and the lyrics are below.
Me and all my friends We're all misunderstood They say we stand for nothing and There's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong With the world and those who lead it We just feel like we don't have the means To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
It's hard to beat the system When we're standing at a distance So we keep waiting Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power To bring our neighbors home from war They would have never missed a Christmas No more ribbons on their door And when you trust your television What you get is what you got Cause when they own the information, oh They can bend it all they want
That's why we're waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care, We just know that the fight ain't fair So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
And we're still waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting waiting on the world to change One day our generation Is gonna rule the population So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change (more)
Hey everyone, hope your life is well. I've been really busy lately, in addition to my course work at Ashford University, I am now training to become a medical coder. Homework has taken over my life. It's August 1st which means that next month is my birthday, I'll be 24, wow has this year gone by fast. I can't wait for football the football season to start, so I can watch the Trojans, Dolphins, Saints and Chargers play. Football season is great cuz it helps curb my desire for the NBA season to start already. I like baseball and I love the Dodgers but baseball does nothing for me in my need to see the Lakers play. At least football can be a distraction of some sort. Speaking of the Lakers we finally have resigned the candyman Lamar Odom. You have know idea how excited I was when I found out the deal had been finalized.
Moving on, I am so over politics, I used to love it, now I rarely watch CNN and MSNBC or go to sites like the Huffington Post because everything about the political world irritates me. People talk about how young people aren't involved in politics and they claim we don't care about what happens but in reality we do care. We care about health care, the economy and other important issues. What we don't care about is all the crap that comes with it. We don't give a damn about all the drama and the bickering. We hate that you would go against something that would have enormous benefits to a massive amount of people simply because the opposite party is for it. My feelings can best be explained by John Mayer's song Waiting On The World To Change. Everything about that song is how I feel about politics today. I kinda feel bad for feeling that way because last year I was so pumped. I actively campaigned on this blog for now President Barack Obama, I will never forget watching the inaguration and having so much hope and pride about America. I still have that hope and pride but I have no interest in dealing with anything political right now so I'll just focus on school and sports.
Now that I'm done with that little rant, well it wasn't really a rant but anyways... I seriously think that my mother and I need to seek therapy. I think I understand where she's coming from (maybe I don't) but she has no clue about where I'm coming from. I don't even try to explain my position because she just doesn't get it and its a waste of my time. The issue at hand is communication or the lack there of according to my mother. She doesn't think I communicate enough and I think that I do but at the same time the things she thinks I should communicate about never enter my mind. Such as her thinking I should give my opinion about something without her asking me. If it doesn't dawn on me to tell her my opinion how am I suppose to just state my opinion. When it comes to my version of communication and hers we are on two totally different wave links. Thus, we need to therapy. I'm not a talker, my mother is. I hate talking on the phone, if I never have to talk on the phone again I would be a happy woman. I prefer texts and emails. If I'm out in public, I most likely won't be the one initiating the conversation. Am I shy yes, though there are times that I have no problem speaking up. I also hate confrontation or any drama that I feel is completely unnecessary. So there are times when people say things that I don't agree with or irritate me and I'll just let it go and not say anything. My mother is totally different, she loves to talk and she rarely holds her tongue on anything. Can I try to communicate more, yes and I am trying but I also think you should understand that talking isn't always my nature and the things that you would communicate about aren't always what I'm going to communicate about. So as I said in from the start my mother and I need therapy or at least a mediator so that our positions on certain things can be made clear because me just saying it obviously isn't working.
Alright I'm done for the night. Hope your days are great and remain great.
I love music, sports, history, politics, news, The Los Angeles Lakers, The Miami Dolphins, and The Los Angeles Dodgers.
Bridges freak me out, I dislike rude people and I hate to see people mistreated.
I'll give a more detailed description on me when I feel like typing that much.
