UAAP SEASON 72 : "one color, one goal"

This 2009 season of the UAAP came pretty quickly! Everyone is pretty excited about it, especially from where i'm coming, the tigers really took hard days of practices to get the crown back from as Ateneo looks to defend it's title. I don't really have much to say yet except that this year i'm going to be seeing things from a very different perspective. This year, for the first time ever since I started watching the UAAP, i can simply be a normal fan. I don't need to be so emotionally attached while watching the game and cheering for my school, cause chris tiu's now gone from the UAAP. Now i can just sit back and relax while enjoying the game. But it doesn't mean im not rooting for ateneo anymore. Obviously, i'm still going to be cheering for the eagles since the guys are all competitive and good-looking...haha :)



I would also like to acknowledge the fact that i'm pretty happy that there are still 2 of my crushes and a friend of mine are still playing in the UAAP. I always root for them, since i know how good they play and i would like all of them to succeed and have a good season. So to Ryan Buenafe, Nico Salva and classmate Dylan Ababou...i wish you goodluck.. Especially to Dylan, who has this year left to play, be a captain and prove himself.

As for the teams this year, I think FEU is a really talented and scary team with all the tools of a championship team. Oh plus they've got Mark Barroca and Gilas team mates. DLSU is always going to be in the tough ocntender the crown, thanks to their great system, although it's sad to hear about LA Revilla missing this season. UE is also another team to watch especially with the emergence of Paul Lee and the improvement of Elmer Espiritu, Acuna and Lingganay, but the loss of James Martinez has definitely got to hurt them. As for Nu, UP, and Adamson, i am hoping all of them improve and win a lot of games cause it's always nice to see a very competitive league where all the teams are balanced and no one team is standing out. (Well, with the very exception of Ateneo i hope :)) Alas to UST who lost a lot of Key players like tiger power Jervy Cruz, Franciz Allera, Canlas and Cuan. Dylan Ababou certainly needs to improved, step-up his game and show-off his skills with consistency.

UAAP72 hosted by FEU, opened last July 11 saturday at the big dome. Adamson gave UST a very close fight, just a point behind. Mirza blows and kicked off 23 loud points. Ateneo boom and shake the side steps with a win against FEU.

So nice to feel again the season of cheering and energy arousing school spirit.

GO USTE..ONE BIG FIGHT

ALL MIXED UP!!!

The month of june defunct just a usual school days and the storm that I was expecting didn’t came nor entered my zone. A wish was answered this month, I just handed a new cam. We now have destiny cable, in preparation for the upcoming UAAP season. Yey!BTV. I just bought a Nike bag, Nike slippers and Nike ID-lanyard to satisfy my pleasure. But yet I’m blown up. Know why???
It’s very appalling, horrifying, sickening for an irregular student like me to have such a dreadful suicidal overload schedule taking up 29 units in a sem. Waking up at 4:30am just to be at school exactly seven in the morning for my first class which is a one hour petition philo class every MWF, 7am to 8am I supposed. Then, waiting for the clock to strike twelve’ afternoon for my next boring class. Still, I had to attend 2 minor and 2 major classes. Staying 7 am up to 9 in the evening at the campus, I dare you! It really is a bad choice to opt it but they gave me no choice. I’m doomed!
Spending all day at school doesn’t mean that I could notch a student-honor-award, well, then maybe if there’s a will there’s a way…
focus + determination = key to success…hahahaha but HEY! Lets be realistic baby…it ain’t me. JUST Give me two years, I’ll be graduating soooooon I hope, that is, if my plans gonna work.
Classes at the Med building were suspended and No drinking fountain at UST reasonably due to A(H1N1) virus. So, I bought a tumbler, to quench my thirst. Sharing-
Money…I need money. I wanted to buy an iPod…upgrade it to an iPhone…haha. I’m kinda wishing for it, cuz’ I feel miserable riding a 2-hour jeepney “voyage” while hearing the sound of silence plus smoke belching all around me. What I need is music!!!. Can the government provide me one??? If yes, let me vote for Gloria!
BA5 marketing principle subject, I liked it. The first meeting made me befuddled and got my interest. Though, I looked at it in a different way with all the computations and numbers stuff. TV Prod with CA1 its sort of fun, knowing the basic of producing films and video, editing and handling a camera.
Met CA4, I felt at home in this section, probably because my bunch of best friends were there. The class was very active and approachable, compared to other section-batch.
Chances of being a regular student is 0.0000000000000000001 whoah that was so close to reality. I forgot to mention what happened to my school shoes, unfortunately it has come to an end and busted kaput. I needed to buy a pair; therefore I bought one, courtesy of my money given to me by my kind-hearted tita.
Perforating month of July by buying a Chalk Mag UAAP-NCAA edition. Start of UAAP season 72 fever banging the first game by a one-point win advantage of the tigers. Good start? That’s a NO! NO! haha. FEU is the host for today’s season. Ads and endorsement battered for the player’s exposure plus they get a chance to play for ABS-CBN’s Game ka na ba? Hosted by Edu Manzano. Its so funny seeing the players doing a different thing rather than hooping. I signed up for a school org just to try something new and re-activate my social life status. Costing me 130php, in exchange for a free Korean Meal and the meal was alive. Hahahaha long story. Talking about the org, it is a university wide org called the Radio Tomasino, where in we can get to organize events held by the students. Hey! The eagles won on their first season game against the tamarraws. Quite blessed for all-functional key players. Nico Salva was caliente aggressive and completely rocking the dance floor. I totally freaked out when I saw Ryan Buenafe, his moves were jaw dropping yet heart-pounding for me. Ateneo played as a team, all contributed. They almost make their beyond the arch percentage perfect. I saw chris tiu toooo. By the way, July 12, Sunday 8pm is the debut of Chris’ clear future league show…hope every one could catch it!
Apparently, I feel sleepy and impatiently waiting for D day. So long for now.

A POEM FOR LUCKY SEVEN.

basketball is his sports ever since he's a kid
a dedicated player by heart and by deed
always ready to step up when his team's in need
you will be fierce when you see his moves and his speed

dunno why i just run when ever i saw him
but i cheer! when he shoots the ball inside the rim
this fella's known as mr. nice guy of the team
dangerous guard coz' he can steals ball for a win

when ball is outta bounce he's always there to save
a gusty court general who's mighty and brave
so, back off give way coz' he's surely a big wave
Lance Anthony Convento playing guard, my fave :)


-sorry, im bad at poetry..
and oooops DONT FORGET! PASALUBONG HA! haha

TIUPERMAN.

at times of failure, we seek for thee
at times of triumph, we yelled "victory!"
when the force is needed by the sea of blue
a man stood up, his name is CHRIS TIU

in all of our encounters ,we came on top
ours is a team nobody could stop
as the captain you lead us through
'cause you deserve, we gave you support in lieu

our greatest battle is when the archers came along
all of us were rattled, panic is prolong
when everyone gave up, had no glance at hope
the KING EAGLE was there, so with fear we could cope

when you look up the sky, you would notice him
there'll be brightness, it'll never be dim
it's not a bird, a plane or a simple human
OMG! it's the great TIUPERMAN!

LAKERS VS MAGIC GAME3

The Magic were one lay-up away from making Lakers fans shut up and having a commanding lead in the series. But that's not how the ball bounced and instead, they find themselves behind the Lakers but still very much in the series. For them to win the championship, they'd have to win their last 2 home games and steal one from the Lakers. Only 2 teams in NBA finals history have won three straight at home, the 06 Heat and the 04 pistons.After watching the first quarter, i couldn't believe how great Kobe was, making all those tough shots, and it's just too bad he disappeared in the end of the game.

And for all those believers who keep on insisting just how superduper clutch Kobe is, according to Bill Simmons, a study from www.82games.com has kobe shooting 14/56 in game winning situations in the past 5 plus seasons including the playoffs. And to make things worse, he only has 1 assist and 5 turnovers in those situations. Yup, quadruple teamed the last game and had his shot stuffed by Hedo in the last play of regulation in Game 2, instead of passing it to the 3 other wide open men.Also, i find it so weird that everyone keeps on hyping up Kobe's leadership in this finals and how he constantly communicates to everyone at all times. I've heard Mark Jackson repeat it countless times already but it bothers me cause i don't see anything special in what he's doing. I mean, that is the role of the team captain or the team leaders, if he doesn't do that then he doesn't deserve to be called the captain or the leader. It's that simple. I'm pretty sure LBJ does that too, or Jason Kidd and Chauncey, and those other guys but all im hearing is that this Kobe is now like a super leader. I ain't buying that.The Magic just shot lights out today. Pietrus did a good job stepping up and so did Rafer Alston. Big time games from them.

By the way, i do think Pietrus follow up dunk should have been called basket interference and he got away with a double dribble on offense early in the first half. I mean, 3 referees, how could you miss that? As for Rafer, that's the way to play, taking what the defense gives u and creating shots, taking it to the hoop. ALthough he did have some clumsy passes too which had me scratching my head. Again i find it funny, as i predicted, everytime i trash Rafer he bounces back and delivers a performance that will just make me shut up.I still am not so sure about whether the Magic can win the next game but i sure hope they do so that we can have an interesting series. I held my breath towards the end of the game, watching how tentative the Magic had become in crunch time, until Rashard hits another dagger.

Well, the fact that Kobe got his usual share of superstar calls where he practically wasn't touched and gets to the line didn't help me either. But today, the ball didn't lie and he shot terrible from the line, shooting worse than Dwight! Haha so much for me making fun of LBJ's free throw shooting. I guess Kobe can have bad ones too. And for the Lakers, please please get Pau Gasol more than 11 shots. Please don't let Ariza take more than him. Gasol is unstoppable at the post. He has been schooling the defensive player of the year all series long, so please give it to the guy who shot 81 percent from the field a while ago!! The key for the Magic to win is to outplay the Lakers at the 1, 3 and 4 positions. I have a deadlock at the 5 spot with Dwight and Gasol (i'm considering him a 5, since Bynum has been n-onexistent), or even a slight advantage for the Lakers. For the shooting guard spot, there is no way the Magic can have an advantage over Kobe, but as long as Pietrus can some what contain him then it should be good enough. As for the 3 position, Hedo needs to outplay Ariza like he did a while ago (OH and btw, why isnt kobe guarding Hedo yet? The nine time all defensive team needs to be taking on the star player of the opposing team. COMe on Kobe!!). And Rashard has been outplaying Odom (although Odom was great in game 2). But the real key is the point guard play. Fisher is a savvy veteran who is a good role player, but he is the weakest link of the Lakers, and Rafe/Jameer need to outplay him always in order for the Magic to win.The Magic were one lay-up away from making Lakers fans shut up and having a commanding lead in the series.

Welcome June!

June, June, June,.what to expect?? Yeaaaah rainy days…and the ‘back to school spirit’ that makes me weak! Summer ends and the closing of relaxation. Now, preparing for tiring school days yet enjoying it because of money allowance…hahay!
Its been 3 weeks since PBL season ends and had a blog entry about the licealiz-pharex semis..it doesn’t went well, and PBL closed for a very usual championship game having oracle,yes,harbour winning the unity cup. That sucks~
Anyway, V had an award being one of the second mythical team and the gentleman awardee goes to Dylan Ababou. Does that counts? hmmmm
June is full of hassle pressure…reason for it? Enrollment! And the curse for irregular students like me…fixing up my schedule is way getting in my nerves and OH! Add the rainy days. Floor is slippery when wet~ remember that!

I wrote this blog entry because… Im definitely missing everything!!!! The heck-
First, I lost my planner! OoOk, I need to look for a new ‘like that’ and bingo! I found ‘like that’ and bought one at papemelroti gateway. I just wonder, what happened to the planner I lost. Who had that? And Where the hell izzzzzzit.
Cielo really miss playing hoops…well, timezone helps me to recuperate.haha
Then the NBA semis to finals – Go Cavs! Go Lakers! Even though Lebron didn’t make it, surely Kobe will!!!
C of my life.,where are you? After landing here at manila from vegas,. I still don’t know where you are and I haven’t see you BIG TIME…the last thing I know about you is that you’re goin to have a new show at Solar sports. Fine, we’ll see that! keeps me waiting…
Lucky seven…how are you? :) …too bad, I couldn’t see ya for three months I think. See you soon, somewhere at August. The D day!
Bye PBL and hello UAAP! Please let the tigers bag the UAAP crown…it’s the last year of their captain…have mercy…

Calamities happen when june begins, but this one is different. H1N1 Influenza Virus known as the swine flu attacks manila and bows the archer’s territory. We should be attentive and keep ourselves clean all the time, so the virus will leave our body. Make ‘washing your hands’ a habit.

June 15 will bring me back to reality. Ciao!
Storms coming….
