Nasty morning for me.. Slept late last night because I got hooked to the t.v. watching "Meet Joe Black". Haven't watched it in a long time so it just stirred up the hopeless romantic inside of me. I'm such a sucker for cheesy and sappy love stories. Well, what can I do? That's me.. I just woke up at around 7:30 a while ago and had a hard time waking up. I got ready at around 850 while my class at benilde was at 9! I had to drive all the way to Las Pinas to Manila with all the traffic on this wet and rainy Saturday morning.. I had to buy this book required on this Saturday morning subject at atc for a nasty sum of 1060 bucks.. Are books nowadays that expensive!? Still a long day for me cuz I might be going out tonight.. Good thing is that my parents are out of town so I don't need to go home early.. phew! plus theres gonna be a drinking session with my village friends(taas barkada) at ejie's place later. I'm hoping not to get drunk before my night out.. wish me luck.. well im just surfing friendster at the moment. . see you guys later..

Go Warrior! 2!
dear on-Line journal,
Well, yesterday was a long day for me due to the fact that when I woke up I went directly to the gym for my tuesday thursday workout schedule after that I went to DLSU for jiu jitsu training. After training it was school time for me. Still another boring class.. When class was finished I ate some q balls again then a friend of mine, Jessica rode with me home.. It was so traffic in the south Luzon express way that me and Jess were talking about eveything from the daily going-ons of our lives and even the camera pictures on her phone. After I brought her home I went for a quick eat at botchogs since P50 was the only money in my wallet.. Gotto and tokwa rocks for just the price of P19. Finishing off my meal I went to fetch Mico and off to jon's place for more jiu jitsu training. I jost got whooped in jiu jitsu and im not even sure if im ever gonna be good at the art. I've been facing a lot of opponents stroner than me and technique far mor refined than mine. I guess the losses are starting to bruise my ego. But to say the least im a much better jiu jitsu fighter than the people i started out with. At least i know that im well off than my batchmates cuz i've been training hard with people way much better than me.
at around 10:00 pm we stopped training cuz it was Go warrior time! yeah! The show featured brazilian jiu jitsu. and the host Rolan Ousborne was being teached by Gracie black belter of jiu jitsu Royler (pronnounced as Hoyler) Gracie. After teaching some of the techniques he went off to meet up with jiu jitsu granmaster Helio Gracie, 10th level blackbelt of the art at the age of 91 and father of Royler. What a lucky guy being invited to Helio's home for a private lesson from one of the people who popularized the art in Brazil. Roland also interviewed some of the best students of Gracie jiu jitsu who formed their own schools such as Manimal Jiu Jitsu and a brazilian jiu jitsu instructor who taught jiu jitsu to street children in order to teach them discipline of the art. You gotta just give respect to those kids being blue belters at a very young age. They could even execute suave armbars to even older people like me. What a nice way to stay away from drugs. I just envy them because jiu jitsu is the number one sport in Brazil aside from soccer and it brought to the Brazilians discipline and a sense of pride. How I wish that was the same thing here in the Philippines, being prideful of ones' culture and heritage. Going back to the story they also went out surfing and of course what better place to do grappling other than the beach? I'd like to try that sometime with my friends with whom I'm training with. its around 3:12 here in um and i have a class at akic at around 3:40. Well i guess i'll leave it up to there.. later..

blame it on the rain..!!
dear on-Line journal,
i forgot to relate my experience after leaving um awhile ago.. shit! the rain was just pouring hard and i had to go to akic just for one class, Filipino 13! We were suppossed to write a composition about feelings of any kind.. being the weirdo that i am i wrote about the feeling of shitting..in tagalog "natatae". Finished it in a few and raced back to csb main for two more classes. It was still raining at akic when o got out so i opted to take a jeepney ride instead of walking. After the two classes to my luck it was still raining.. Walking back to the car made me wet all the more.. I mean, literally wet. at least when i reached home i got the chance to watch this show on the discovery channel.. Go Warrior..

dear on-Line journal,
that martial arts show on discovery awhile ago was just nasty! I just loved it to the inch. It showed taekwondo(one of the martial arts im studying) and the russian martial art called systema.
The espisode on taekwondo was truly amazing displaying Korea's homegrown talents from its earlier roots of subaku later evolving into what we now know as the world famous taekwondo. Watching there techniques was just awesome and a jaw breaking display of speed, precision, accuracy and flexibility. How i wish with blinding jealousy that i could do what those koreans would do.
The second martial art was systema, also a combination of techniques of russian martial arts that is deeply rooted in their culture. I've learned that from their techniques that to be succesful in that martial art you must learn to move with the flow of things much like water(i remember bruce Lee and my jiu jitsu instructor saying this to me). Observing these techniques was like watching a dance with their bodies twisting and turning as though performing a ritualic dance, although they are disarming an opponent using the techniques. This martial art also reminds me of aikido techniques of disarming multiple assailants without the use of weapons.
It was kinda sad watching the show end because i just want to watch more. Well, tomorrow they are showing aikkido and brazilian jiu jitsu(this im also studying and my personal favorite!yeah!)and i just can't wait. Tomorrow is also a big day for me since im going to work out in the gym in the morning and off to jiu jitsu training in La Salle in the afternoon. After that go to class and finally home for more "Go Warrior".I'm just so excited at what tomorrow will bring..yahoo!

2nd day..
dear on-Line journal,
apparantly i got lazy to train for jiu jitsu yesterday because i got lazy when i opened the t.v. Discovery channel was showing this episode on the "world of martial arts" featuring martial arts hotspots around the world. I managed to just watch half of the show but to my amazement they showcased the Filipino martial art called eskrima arnis which is now popular in the island of Cebu. Arnis is an art of 2000 years lineage dating back to the time of the first hero of the Philippines: Lapu-Lapu.. Apparently it was the art used by the "L" man to vanquish Magellan and his henchmen. After that it was outlawed in the Spanish era for about 300 years and is now resurfacing as the only original Filipino martial art of today. Other arts that were shown were taekwondo and aikido. talk about information overload ryt? after watching discovery i just went on my day to school.. how boring it was in class although that class was a class i was looking forward to since it was adorned by cute and beautiful women so even though it was boring i was happy in the consolation that there were eye candies to satisfy my hungry eyes.. im just a boy you know.. hehehehehe.. I can't help being one.. There was this topic me and steve(my classmate) was talking about. Well, i had this dream the other night about a friend. She was just a friend to me and nothing more but in the dream it was just so nasty.. We were having wild animal sex.. I was really confused with the dream so I asked Steve some form of interpretation to it. Steve told me that I might be liking her unconciously but consciously i dont care or even bother. Now I can't get her out of my mind due to that hot, hot hot, dream. Well, that was just some sidetrip to not let the boring class get to me. Going home I just ate q balls and met up with my friend pingkoy. Pingkoy said he was going to the house of our friend just to hang-out. After that I met up with Jessica cuz we were both supposed to go home together. She just came out of her class from st. scho and pingkoy still there was making faces at me, apparently to make fun of me with jessica because he said on text that we look "good" together.. Now thats just nasty cuz I've been friends with jessica for the longest time and shes like a sister to me.. nasty pingkoy.. after bringing jess home i drove directly home and after pigging myself out with food and drinks just watched this show again on martial arts on the discovery..and then texted my friend kristine from southville for awhile then..sleeping time.. whoa.. look at the time..its 320 already and i have class atakic at 340 and I'm still in U.M.. catch you later then..
