Baseball blues

This has been a very bad week for our local baseball teams i would start out by saying that we are basically in last place. The New York yankees and mets have no pitching to begin with,and then there are times when they can't even hit a simple pitch that i would say that most high school baseball teams would be able to slam out ofthe park.The new news going on in the mlb is the search for new coaches to manage the teams.These two new york teams are spending lots of money so the managers really have no choice in losing or winning we just want wins.There are times that i cant really watch a game on t.v. cause it can be very stressful to watch these teams lose in very sad ways.The season is only going half way so lets see if they could pick up there game and start to get hits and perform better than what they are doing ,so lets stay positive and watch our local baseball teams.

Building home

This weekend i started to build a small dog house for my friends dog . So me and my friend decided to go ahead and purchase the material that was needed in order to get this house built for the dog. We bought all the wood that was needed the nails we also measured everything and let me tell you that we had everything down to the wire. So we started to build the house and everything was going smooth the dog house was coming along fine. The wood seemed to be in place and the nails seemed to be well hammered into the wood. So we finally got done with this project and let me tell you that we were very happy to get this done, But the problem came about three days later while the dog was living in the house for some reason it fell apart and the whole dog house fell down to the ground. I felt like this house was so secure and that we did an excellent job. The problem was one nail which was put in the wrong place and the foundation of the dog house had no strength and everything just came crumbling down to the ground with the dog inside.

Camping in the cold

This is not so much a story about me but of a friend of mine that went to go upstate for the holiday. Since its the memeorial day weekend they decided to go camping and spend the weekend out there and have some fun. What they did not realize was that the temperature out there would be much lower than what it is out here. So lets say its 70 degrees out here it would be about 10 degrees less, so they basically got out there and they were freezing their butts off out there. But over all when i spoke to them they are having a good time and there is so much to do ,fishing , cooking with wood , going boat riding, and just enjoying the atmosphere.I have not spoken to them but only once since they went out there so lets wait and see how their trip went out there and what activities they did as well.

Tragic

Today there was a tragic accident that took place on the kosckic brigde that leads to the williamsburg brigde and the manhattan brigde. From the information i got today it was about four cars that crashed into a fuel tanker and some people died it wa sa terrible day on that brigde the traffic was so long that there were no cars moving at all. I must say that the times i drove on these NewYorkCity highways people now a days just have no patience and it is sad because alot of accident could be avoided. Sometimes i think there are to many cars on the highway and people just think about themselves and worry about where they are going.

Swimming in deep water

I have became a member of the parks department this week and where i live they have just constructed a new state of the art swimming pool. I had to pay about $75 a year to be able to use the swimming pool. The pool is about 5 feet t 20 feet , i am like a fish i love to swim it is like therapy to me i feel so relax when im swimming. The bad thing about this is that i am a smoker and my lungs are not as strong as they use to be so i really can't swim for a long amount of time and holding my breath under the water is out of the question. Im able to use the swimming pols through out the city it has to be for the parks dept. You will recieve a membership card and this will give you access to the facities in the city that are part of the parks department.

festival

This day was a very busy day i had to go to work and also work on some home work that has been giving me problems. I woke up at 6 in the morning and do alot of cleaning at my building and let me tell you it was not easy at all.The mess from the night before did not make it easy at all. The fun but hard part of the day was the festival they had on 9th ave, there was all types of food and clothing and artifacts being sold. the weather was not all that great but it was really nice to see everyone outside with their kids laughing and having a good time. Its real nice to know that the summer is very near. There will be so much to do this summer so many activites all through the city. There will be so many festival to go to and enjoy, there are also exibits that will be on display for us to enjoy. I would say that there are about 20 different types of festivals for us to enjoy all in the tri-state area.What will make a big difference is how this weather is going to treat us this year.

This is a funny story because have been practicing speaking in front of people with out getting nervous and let me tell you that its not easy. I was saying a speech in front of some friends and i got very nervous i could not say some words i started to shake and even the notes i had in front of me i could not read the lines correctly. So what i did is practice in front of the mirror so i can shake of that nervous behavior and i started to speak in front of family so i can get useto speaking in front of people. Im also trying to keep good eye contact and stop moving around when im speaking ,try to have good posture and maintain a firm clear voice . This is what im going to do and keep speaking in front of people cause i know i will have to speak in my church and there will be a large crowd and i want to have a good performance.

Crazy cat

This is kind of a crazy story i have to mention its about my cat . Its not my cat and its a young one and its a female.For some reason evry time i come home it follows me and starts to moeow and i never feed the cat or anything but it always has food dont get me wrong.The strange thing about this cat is that when i lay on the couch it starts to meow and pretty loud at that and it starts to jump on my arm and it bites my arm not to the point where it penetrates my skin ,something very gentle and it grabs my arm with its paws not with its nails. But the crazy part is that it bites on to my skin and it just stays in that position with my skin in its teeth and it just hangs there and this is evertime . I thought for a second it might be in heat or something but its been going on for quite a while now ,i start to think it might be that it wants my attention is the only thing i can come up with.

Today, it was a glorious day for me as we catholics celebrate Pentecost.It is a celebration when the Lord sent down from the heavens the Holy Spirit to the twelve apostles and the Virgin Mary to give them strength and guidance plus all the gifts that was offer by the Holy ghost of God, everything from peace, wisdom,love,strength all the good the Holy Spirit has to offer. So tonight we had a big mass in the St. Patrick Catherdal in the celebration of the vigil pentecost. We did alot of praying we also did some singing and dancing and alot of praising. We ended the night around 12:00 in the morning, this day is also when Jesus left us the church. We ended the night with the celebration of the eucharist, what a night it was.

Headache

Place:Devry lab


The week was a tough one for me because i can say that i only got about 28 hours of sleep the whole week. I mean i had so much to do with going to work and school, i get up early and i get home late so it has been real difficult for me to get a good nights rest. It got to the point where i have been getting some major headaches. I try to get home as soon as possible but with having to take a shower and getting ready for work the next day it adds up and by the time you know it its time to be back at work. Now let me say that i get up 3:30 am to get to work at 6:00 am and this is a full time job plus i have class full time as well not to forget. Now that the weekend is here i got some rest but there is always something to do so i just have to eat right and when i get a chance get the rest that i need and im sure i will make it through these tough times.

Change in storms

Time: 5:24 pm
Place:Devry lab


The change in weather is really affecting the climate and the storm systems around the world. Just in the news i saw something about a storm that destroyed a town somewhere in the pacific. I mean this was a total disaster to say the least. People are without water and food ,plus the land is just torn up. In the carribean as well major hurricane's are destroying these countries that dont even have the proper resources to aid the people who are in great need of the basic things in life.Im starting to notice that the storms are getting much more deadlier and stronger. Im not to sure if it has anything to do with the ozone layer and the pollution around the world. Even here at home in NYC we hardly had no winter and there is a very strong change in weather on a weekly base, one day its warn and then the next week the temperature drops 20 degrees. The hospitals are very busy this time of year.

Today was a very beautiful day it was sunny and clear day everyone walking around with a smile, you can sense that good weather puts people in a very good mood. It is about time that we get some good weather hopefully it remains this way and we dont get a quick change to cold weather like the way we have had these past few days.Looking at the forecast its going to be a beautiful week,the negative side to this is that there going to be alot of work at my job. I do cleaning of a small park in a commerical building so people hang out there all day and night and the mess that is made is increible ,but im ready to take on this mess that intensifies in the summer. Let me tell you that what ever your mind can imagine you can find outside let me tell you that i have to deal with it.

Rush hour

This weekend i bought the collection of the rush hour movies. I saw all three of the movies ,one threw three they were so funny. I love when jackie Chan gets together with Chris Tucker they make such a team. I would rate these movies as the most funny movies that have been put together. Its funny as well how Chan does not speak that good of english and tries to prnounes certain words,along with Tucker he just has a very funny demeanor.I would say that the first movie is the funniest one out of all three it is so original and it was well acted out , iwould suggest that if you get a chance to go and veiw these movies.

There was a fight in the area by my job there seem to be to females fighting over a man it was pretty funny to watch.They made a show like you never seen before it was loud and so over acted that i had to stand there and watch it go down. The girls are yelling over each others voice and then they start to pull each others hair and clothing starts to come off and the funny part is that no one would step in to stop it. the guy was there watching this all happen over him and he had a cool-aid smile as this took place.It finally came to an end when the police came and arrested both of the females ,the guy just stood there and watched this whole event go down and a third female came by , i guess to meet him and left with him as the two other girls were taken away by the police ,wow.

Marching

This was a strange day because there are so many opinions about the sean bell case.There was a small gather in Jamacia and there were so many people that were upset. I feel this whole case is a very sad time for everyone in the city because its brought on a certain type of separation between us. ask myself was there justice and my answer is im not the one to decide but there are many points that just dont make to much sense.There is so many issues to consider when something of this magnetude takes places so many life's are affected by these incidents.Supporters for bell and the family are marching on til they get the justice they are in search of, when will that time come is a question that i have no clue.
