Sand volleyball rules.

JY's random thoughts/discovery:

* Nissan Altima has one tough ass bumper.  Do NOT walk into one of them.  Last night I accidentally did that and it caused extreme pain and severe bruise.  It hurt so much that i had to jump around outside of ben's house while laughing (cuz at the same time Jeff said something real funny) It's a mixed emotion - so funny, so painful and I want to cry becuase of both.  OH, and the bruise looks so bad that it's bloody red right under my skin.... looks like it's bleeding but it's actually a bruise.  woah.

* Todai has bad desert.  Good selection, but just taste crappy.   

* After using Peter's 300 bux exercise bike, I found out that with some serious sweating, 3 miles distance, ~20 mins, and average heart beat about 130

I ONLY LOST FREAKING 150 CALORIES AND 40 CALORIES FROM FAT.

WTF? ... a can of pop would destroy all that bike riding workout......    

* CALPIS/CALPICO rocks.  For ppl who don't know, it's this japanese drink that's sweet/sour-ish healthy yogurt type of drink.  Since it came with so many flavors I decided to try them all.  I bought 3 diff flavors and drank it right away after paid the cashier. 

Calpico Strawberry - excellent!!!!!! except the original calpico water, this has to be the best in my opinion.  But then again, I have always loved everything strawberry....  strawberry milk... icecream.. milk shake... bubble tea..... blah blah 

Calpico Grape - not too good, grape taste is overpowering the test of calpico.....  this drink ain't bad, but you might as well drink any other grape juice out there.

Calpico Pineapple - it's good, it's got the taste of pineapple but again not as good as strawberry one.

More reviews to come...   Mango/Lychee.............

WOOT!  Friday night went to Depaul for my cousin Grace's violin recital....  Damn!!! Last time I heard her playing was when we were...  ten?  Oh well... now after 14 years she is actually really really good at it............. and she sure fits in that black dress well. 

Here are some pics we took afterwards... 

Me, cousin Tracy and her beef.

Me and GRACE! my face looks weird cuz i was trying to get this piece of food out of my teeth.... (no i wasn't pissed)  and Grace is smilin' with her SUPER SAIYAN hair style... it actually looks more like statue of Liberty....except only with total of 6 spikes. 

Sisters love!

Y-A-N-Gs !!!!!

Once again!!!! good job Grace.

Saturday - spring chinese...  ball tournment......   tired....  won all 3 games... ...  great experience against some of the older players, and it's also good to meet these many mainland china players in one day...!! 

Another weekend of ...nothing.....    again wasn't so productive as I thought I would be...   Didn't do anything to my web site (imaginary one, been planning since spring 2002 Anyways, after few weeks of trial and error.... this is my current basketball schedule that my body can keep up with...  if you live near by and wanna join the game gimme a call I will give u guys direction:

Thursday night - some weird national clinic/science college 9 pm - 1 am

Saturday morning - Wheaton community center 8 am - noon

Saturday afternoon - blackhawk park (this one might be depending on some of my "older" friends....  yes you know who you are... soon the only sport u guys can play is golf... LOL)

Rest of my weekend... along with my sore crutch (apparently I use my crutch the most when i do lay ups... wtf) :

/*Watched two movies:*/ 

TROY - 5 stars, loved it, and as usual Brad Pitt rocked.  (pure male to male appreciation comment.  NO~! I AM NOT GAY.)

Mean Girls - 3 stars, good movie, pretty funny, nothing really special though. 

/*Watched 1 Japanese drama*/

PRIDE - 5 stars, kimura takuya is still cool, and the leading actress Yuko Takeuchi ÖñƒÈ½Y×Ó is amazingly cute.  Yes she is very very very cute.  Wait.. did i mention she is REALLY CUTE?

Here is a pic of her.....

Weekend was kinda nice....  lots of basketball.  Friday night, peter and physics came down and we ate @ Todai (Peter treats!!! what a nice doggy...  anyways he got a job near by and gonnna move up chicago soon)  Afterwards Ben arrived and we all went to see Van HelSing ....  bad seats (2nd row) and i didn't like the movie much.  Watching Vampire turns into Gargoyle and fights werewolf.... it doesn't seem to make sense..... just like GOKU fights DORAEMON....

Sat morning went to the chinese ®üµØ basketball tournment.  Yeah although it says chinese, but two teams we faced were not chinese at all.....  (there was this guy who looks like Vin Diesel......wtf.)  and there was this Indian team too....   Oh well, we lost both games but it's ok, good experience since for most of us it was the first time playing the tournment.  Good to know there are some great chinese players around Chicago btw.  Afterwards, went to play more ball @ the usual park with some other friends.........  For another Saturday I didn't eat anything for the whole day, except the nice strawberry tapioca drink @ lunch time ....

Sunday...  ate Mother's day lunch with family..... then went to play ball again.......    It seems like recently i have no better things to do other than playing basketball...  weird.  Now think about few years back when i was so messed up and stopped playing ball....  It was stupid!!!!!..  how could I abandoned such a fun sport.................

At night... just relax and chat with ppl... hahahah, haven't chatted with anyone for such a long time, it feels funny.  OH well... there goes my boring weekend, thank you for reading this crap.

I am very excited so i must share with everyone.  A while back I encountered this.....  perfume that smells extremely good and it basically makes me think I must start using it myself (or Air refresher in the car, bathroom... etc.)  Last night I had the 2nd chance to find out what it is, and thanks to Ben (what a guy, sacrificed 30 bux for this info)

IT IS............ LOVESPELL FROM VICTORIA SECRETttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It's actually not perfume, but it's those after shower kit i guess.... with body lotion, body spalsh... etc..     For you guys who have gf.....  go buy it for her.   For you single ladies.. go buy it so you can get a guy....   and for single guys like me....   buy it and use it on yourself or as i mentioned,  use it in bathroom so you can have a pleasant experience while taking a crap.

Anyways, Victoria Secret's  LoveSpell......   go buy it everyone.

Random thoughts:

- My co-worker D is a fag because he likes to change my MSN name to something gay related.

- Picking nose in a G35 on the freeway is not a very pleasant picture.  And when your booger is sticky, don't try rubbin' against your fingers hoping it can fly off.  Especially when its' one of those SUPER STICKY ONES....  after 10 sec of finger rubbin' if it still stays on your finger......... DUDE USE FOCKING TISSUES or SOMETHING.  (BTW, I immediatly switched lane so i don't think the booger hit my windshield)

- You can actually learn a lot by chatting with ppl that are older than you, and ppl who are A LOT younger than you.   

- Houston Rockets sucks. 

- Money is very important.  Money can't buy everything, but in reality, it's the solution to 99% of your problem.  Therefore if you want to drag your attention away from the other problems in life, try to concnetrate on money making.

- After 10 years, I think it's a good time to pay Taiwan a visit.  I really should go since I'm such a hardcore FOB.  Great, I have two weeks of vacation coming up........ Anyone going to Taiwan during Summer? 

- Poker is a very boring game. 

it's 1 pm and i got 20 mins before Ball-ing... ... why not write a entry on xanga huh~?

Friday night......  went down to U of I to support the funder of Dance 2 xs  - PAT~!!!!.  Well, the thing starts at 10 and we were still at downtown chicago near navy pier @ like...  8:10(to pick Eric up).... well that got us worried a little bit.. Anyways, we end up arriving just in time (guess they coudln't start the show without Eric there anyways... so they delayed the performance til 11...... what was i worrying about....) OH yeah, forgot to mention downtown chicago at night looks so pretty... makes me wanna move there.

The show was pretty good, i really enjoyed the Italian gtoup's performance..... shit they were truly awesome (i swear it wasn't because of the black leather sexy outfit...)  Also there were few memoriable moment such as the move where the guys flipped the girls up side down - then pretend their asses were drums... spank* spank*...  .......  Overall it was awesome and there were lots of entertaining factors which i didn't expect.  Good job D2Xs ppl.

Ok i am running out of time....  anyways rest of my weekends were:

After the show, learned and played poker and this... "in between game"... fucking a i lost 5 bux....   according to Ben i only make 60 cent per hour.. therefore i lost about a week's pay check right there...

I got home at 10:30AM on SAT...   too late to play ball (sorry ppl i will show up next SAT...) so i end up taking a shower and took a nap....  then watched fight club DVD, brad pitt in that movie always get me motivation to workout... .. 

Ok time to go play ball.......  thank you xanga for entertaining me......

Ok this post is dedicated for my one and only ŒW½ã... since she programs xanga 24/7 and she just want to make sure xanga is capable of displaying mandarin characters right...  there u go.

"ŒW½ãŠ…Ô½íÔ½ÀÏà¶"

.... please don't remove me from Xanga premium.. i am so sorrrry....

What a great weekend!  I had a great time playing basketball all day SAT....  Got up 7:30 and drove to Wheaton (great indoor gym.. use to play there all the time 4-5 years ago) and play with lots of ppl, including players from NIU and few U of I graduates (frequent wimpy ballers). 

After 4 hours of game, I went to Diho to get my pinapple bubble-tea drink...   There happen to be this really really really, REALLY HOT girl (Yes I joke about ppl being hot all the time, but she is HOT for real).  This is worth to mention since I haven't seen anyone this hot for ages.  Oh yeah, and the tea was good...... 

Around 2:30 went to the usual SAT ball-ing place, met some ppl that I haven't seen for the whole winter (these are my outdoor ball buddies, since they hybernate during winter cuz of snowing).  Anyways..........got home around 5 pm then ate my first meal of the day....  

very tired but good workout...........................................
