Chicago Bulls pulls off a win....what a tough win that was.
Remember Chicago over 10 years ago, when Jordan was still legendary? Seems like their team's givin' an amazing fight to Boston. 5th game, with 3 OT's, it was a pretty crazy game.
I don't really wanna go into details, but that win was kind of weak. They had two chances to make some "easy" lay-ups, but they missed both unfortunately. They also had a free throw chance, but Gordon missed both shots. He was pretty disappointed in himself. None the less, it was an intense game and I hope 6th game at Boston's home court will just be as good.
Ballin!,

Uh Huh
Just showing you guys my new Red-Tail Black Shark. As you may have already guessed, it is not a true shark, but it is actually a distant relative of the gold fish, just 10x cooler :) He's a real lively one. I'm planning on adding even more this weekend.
Summer is so tranquil, so quiet in the house and there's not much to do. I hope these 4 months last.
Take it easy,
Alan

5/5....I guess I'll go home now.
My sister being a nublet.
It's done, there's not much to say, except for thank God for always being with me, I thank my family for always supporting me and I thank my friends for support and fun along the way, despite being in a whole 'nother city.
I got a new fish for my 75 gallon, more on that later.
After exams, I went to king's buffet with 2 of my very good friends from Conestoga. It was right beside the BigAl's fish depot, hence the new fish acquisition. I wish I had pictures to post.
Rei you better go to the bigAl's tent sale, up to 75% guy!
Summer on,
Alan
4/5 And I'm good, good, good to go. And I'm good, good, good, to go. Gotta get away, get away from all of my mistakes.
In the Library, waiting.
This is it. Apporximately 3 hours and 15 minutes away is my final exam as I sit here in the quiet study area of Conestoga College's Library. The biggest, baddest and hardest of all my subjects is about to arrive: Anatomy and Physiology.
I've come this far, I have no regrets. Despite the butterflies running a muck in my stomach, I feel eerily confident. I just hope this confidence gets me to the place where I desire to be. Doing some last minute reviewing, the final effort to fortify my wall of knowledge against the exam's massive army of complicated questions and diagrams. They're coming and I have to breach the gates, because I am utterly outnumbered.
I've said my prayers and I'm good to go.
NeverShoutNever,
Alan

4/5 The Calm Before The Storm
GAHHHHHH!!!
Still not done this wretched first year. I've to go through one more exam and I'm currently reviewing. I decided to take a break and make a post to vent out my frustration and anxiety. And now I'm done my post.
Oh and you may have noticed my hair, it has become unruly. I'm going to get it "repaired", so to speak, after exams.
JUST ONE MORE!! LET'S DO THIS!!!!
Never back down,
Alan

4/5 It's Not Over
HAHAHAHA, THAT'S F*CKING HILARIOUS MAN!
Anyways,
It's not over, but it's pretty damn close. One more exam before my 4 month freedom.
OSCE's done! Psychology's done! Sociology's done! Essay's done! 4/5 This week on Alan's life: Only one adversary remains: Anatomy and Physiology! It's time for Alan to do extreme training in the hyperbolic time chamber! Will he be able to move up a power level? Can he beat A&P? Don't miss an exciting moment! FINALE NEXT WEEK!
On a totally different note now, I got thirsty when I dropped off my essay. So what do I do? I attempt to purchase a beverage from a vending machine. Now I don't want to name the product, because it might give you the wrong idea, because I'm not blaming the product. OK so these 500+ ml drinks cost $2.25. I give the machine my coins and it takes it. I press the combination and what happens. Nothing comes out and the machine resets to asking for money. I was pissed. But I thought to myself, screw it. I'll make up for it through ad sense.
Be wary of vending machines,
Alan

Umbrellashop Soundtrack
So I'm still slaving away for my school stuffs, then I decided to take a break. It then occurred to me that All Time Low did a cover of "Umbrella" by Rihanna and they did it fairly well. So I thought to myself: What if they use the lyrics to have a conversation with each other. What do I mean? Let's just pretend Alex Gaskarth (Lead singer of All Time Low) and Rihanna were going out for a minute. Let's say they're doing it in secrecy, behind Rihanna's boyfriend's back. Let's say it's not Chris Brown cuz hes a maniac. (Damn I just rhymed!) They would talk to each other in an Umbrella shop, and it would go something like this:
R. (Rihanna)
A.G. (Alex Gaskarth)
A.G: Should I write myself out of the history books,
and mark a place in time for every chance you took?
Don't get me wrong I know you've got your life in place -
R: You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby 'cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because
A.G: I've yet to take the hint,
Some day
I'm sure I'll get the picture,
and stop waiting up...
When it all comes down,
to a sunrise on the east side,
will you be there to carry home?
R: When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out till the end.
A.G: The remains of my wasted youth,
this wasted time on you,
has left me shaking 'n waiting.....
shaking 'n waiting for something more.
R: Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella.
A.G: Tonight is alive with the promise of a street-fight,
and there's money on the table,
that says your cheap-shots won't be able,
to break bones.
R: These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for infinity.
A.G: I've yet to break a sweat,
I'll make your past regret its future.
Here's to you!
R: When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because.....
A.G: I'll ask you again, When it all comes down,
to a sunrise on the east side,
will you be there to carry home?
R: I told you, when the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out till the end.
A.G: The remains of my wasted youth,
this wasted time on you,
has left me shaking 'n waiting.....
shaking 'n waiting for something more!
R: It's still raining more than ever.
Remember that we'll still have each other.
Remember you can stand under my umbrella.
A.G: Make all of my decisions for me,
I've never taken the fall for deceit,
We'll keep a secret if you keep me guessing,
The taste of your lips says we shouldn't have met like this.
R: You can run into my arms!
It's okay, don't be alarmed!
Come here to me
There's no distance in between our love
A.G: I can keep a secret if you can keep me guessing,
The flavor of your lips is enough to keep me pressing,
for more than just a moment of truth between the lies told,
to pull ourselves away from the lives we leave back home. The flavor of your lips is enough to keep me here!
R: It's raining
Ooh baby it's raining
Baby come here to me
Come here to me!
They then preceded to kiss and it was a "happily ever after" ending. Haha.
If you still have not caught on this is a blend of All Time Low's Coffeeshop Soundtrack and Rihanna's Umbrella. If you make it into a song you just gotta add the ella, ella, eh eh eh or w/e. LOL. And it looks like you'll need one because it's raining outside, yay!
Stay under an umbrella, it's raining,

I wanna swim away, but don't know how
Yea, I'm still working on final school stuff. It is a bore and it's a lot of damn work, but it's gotta be done. I felt like taking a video of my aquarium. It's a 75 gallon that I got in the winter break and it's a fairly large step-up from my puny 29 gallon, haha. My fauna include: 2 Polypterus (Senegal Bichir), 2 Leopard Ctenopomas, 4 Clown Loaches, 2 Silver Dollars, 1 Pleco, 4 Red Rainbowfishes and 2 Axel Rainbowfishes. There are also some plants, but I don't know their exact names. I'm planning to add more fish in the future.
Watch it in HD by the way, so it will be clearer. This new "HD" camera of mine is pretty clear, but it does poorly in low light settings. The macro is insane though, it's so detailed.
Enjoy:
Swim away,
Alan

1/5 These images that fill my head, now keep my fingers from making mistakes, tell my voice what it takes to speak up, speak up....
I'm done my OSCE's! Woohoo!!!! I feel so relieved, now I gotta do 4 more crazy assessments. -_-' I think I did well, I got the ones where I was most weak at. The heart and lower extremeties (hips, legs, feet) I guess you can say, it was a heart stopper and a kick in the butt! HAHAHAHA....I know it's corny, shut up.
O well, that's all I have to say.
Keep your concience clean, when you wake,

You know what they say.....
Gotta make this short and brief.
I have been busy this past Easter weekend. It's all been sleep overs, fight choreography, filming etc. It was a blast though, really fun weekend.
Alas, it is all but over! Tomorrow is my OSCE examination, which is basically the physical assessment test and interview on a fake client. I hope it goes well, wish me luck friends!
Pray for my exam performance tomorrow,

Sunny With a High of 75
Hah! I wish that it were 75 degrees Fahrenheit. But it is not. Well at least the snow has started to melt, and it's nice and sunny out.
I'm at home now, until Tuesday at least. Wednesday is my OSCE, which is essentially an skills application nursing exam. I'm no too worried, I did well last semester. I'm actually excited today since my friends and I are going to start filming our side project: "Drugman: Origins" It's going to be fun. =D
Anyways, I'm gonna go get some grub. You know, some breakfast. Like Bub Rub and Lil' Sis say: "Das only in da mornin, people should be up cookin breakfast or sumthin by then so, das like an alarm clock. WOO WOO!"
I'm also gonna play more Ninja Gaiden: Sigma. I'm half way done, but I took a break and haven't played for weeks. If anyone who reads this blog has a penchant for hard games that will continually kick your ass, play this game. If you have a craving for a deep and satisfying combat system, play this game. It's like super cheap now anyway, you can probably find one for $19.99 like I did or if you look really hard, I think you can even get it for like 14.99.
The difficulty of Ninja Gaiden Sigma makes Ryu sad.
Shine on,
Alan

Tired and Uninspired
Well, not really. I'm just tired. Tired from school, tired from working out, tired from the messed up weather and quite frankly, life is giving me shortness of breath. It won't let me catch up. It deliberately runs ahead of me and taunts me all at once.
I could be tired for several reasons. One: I slept at 3 am last night and for God knows what. Two: My upper extremities are exacting revenge for putting them through several reps of wight lifting. Three: God is telling me that I need to pray more often to bring up my spirits. There's probably more that I'm missing, but it's too early in the morning to determine any other missing factors.
I think it's just that lazy morning feel. I hope it goes away later today. I have to complete a screenplay I'm writing for a side movie project I'm working on with some friends. GAH, my fingers feel so heavy as I type on this space. It's like they don't want to move. As Jesus said to his disciples: "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." As in, I want to write my blog, but the rest of my body is trying to reject the idea of even just typing, let along thinking of what I'm going to write.
Exams are so far away. The further away it is, the more anxious I get. It's like being tied down on a railroad, you know the train's coming at 4:30 pm and it's only 1 am in the night. No matter how far it is, your fear increases because you know it's gonna come and you know you're gonna die. Haha, I know the comparison's a bit extreme but you get the picture right. Geez, I can't even write a succinct similie.
I'm going to halt this blog for now. I might end up writing more stupid things.
Stay lively and inspired,
Alan
P.S. GTFO SNOW, NO ONE WANTS YOU HERE!!! YOU'RE CONFUSING THE ANIMALS! THEY'RE TRYING TO MATE AND YOU'RE TELLING THEM TO GATHER FOOD AND HIBERNATE AGAIN. MELT ALREADY AND GIVE US SOME NICE WARM WEATHER!
Nature has angered this poor creature. "I'm tired of

Please, please, please watch Arrested Development.
I'm not even joking. Watch it. In the past years, all we've been getting are sitcoms with a laughing audience track and it's getting so old. Thank God Arrested Development was created. Even when it was on air for only 3 seasons, with the third season only having 13 episodes -_-', I can honestly say that it's the smartest and funniest comedy series I have seen on TV. I am not the only one who thinks so too, there are a lot of critics who agree with me. A Golden Globe and several Emmys, it's just a complete comedic package. The entire cast is extremely talented from the nervous and awkward personality of George Michael Bluth played by Michael Cera, to the extremely hilarious, sexual orientation ambiguous, Tobias Fünke.
The show is basically a satire on the rich and wealthy American family and how they cope with loss of monetary fortune. There are several other satirical topics, such as the U.S.'s laws, governments and big events. It exhibits the naivety of the rich Caucasian family in California, in Orange County more specifically. It's hilarious to see how these people handle the changes in their lifestyle and also how they react to foreign things. This show can be blatantly racist at times, but it's hilarious and understandable. For example, Lucille Bluth adopts a Korean Child to make her and her husband look charitable. He arrives and Lucille calls Michael, stating that you have to strip them to next to nothing before their gender can be identified. If you think that was enough, they call him Anyong, which is actually "Hello" in Korean. I can tell you more, but I don't want to spoil it. The different comedic mechanisms that go into play in this series is executed so well. I won't state every single one of them, but the main one as I've said already is satire. Their jokes are so subtle and well implemented, it ends up being so f*cking funny.
It's truly unfortunate that this series had such a short run. But this series, although only having 3 seasons is overly superior over other "hilarious" comedies, such as Friends. Friends just has a bigger fan base because the type of comedy they portray is a lot easier to understand and is more obvious; this technique is sadly over used for almost ALL sitcoms.
So, there you have it. Please watch this show. Buy the DVD seasons which are not so expensive anymore, support it. They have a movie planned for next year and I am going to watch it in theatres tons of times. I really will.
I, myself have watched the series completely, 13 times. I'm currently on my 14th run. There are also several things in the background you will not notice the first run through the series. I still notice new things now.
Go watch it!
"I'm afraid I just blue myself." -Tobias Fünke
"Okay, Lindsay, are you forgetting that I was a professional twice over, an analyst and a therapist. The world's first analrapist." -Tobias Fünke
Laugh your ass off,
Alan

Impressions @ Weightless by All Time Low, and Details on Relient K's concert at Wonderland!
I am so psyched. I am so psyched about 2 things: All Time Low's new album in July and Relient K's concert at Canada's Wonderland.
First order of business, All Time Low's new single "Weightless", from their upcoming album this July, "Nothing Personal" All Time Low (ATL for short) is well known for that pop-rock pop-punk sound, with energetic guitar riffs and extremely catchy choruses and hooks. Weightless has adhered to that formula well. It's not totally different from their previous songs and that's not a bad thing. It's still as catchy as hell and it is a lovable tune. It's the type of song you can just party to or drive down the highway with all your friends, doing memorable things that will help build your armada of happy memories. The only thing I would complain about, and it's probably being too nit-picky, is that they say the F-word one time, which is not such a big deal. It's just that bands like this typically don't swear in their songs and this song would have been great with or without the F-bomb. Then again, they swear A LOT on stage and they also treat the crowd like "trash". Don't think it's an offensive thing, they love joking around and they're just plain fun to watch perform on stage. The crowd loves 'em anyways.
Speaking of stage performances, one of their latest performances was in Bamboozle Left 2009. I saw a couple of videos on Youtube and their live performance was astounding, considering many bands of the same genre sing terrible live (People who always replace those high notes with lower notes or harmonies or they make the crowd sing that part instead. =/)
Check out Weightless by All Time Low live at Bamboozle Left 2009:
P.S. timeiswastingus AKA the person responsible for filming this, did an excellent job. From what the users have said, there were so many people that it was almost impossible to take a decent video. Some extreme cases included a busted lip. Oh the mosh pits!
Speaking of live performances, guess who's coming to Wonderland this summer?!!
Well you didn't have to guess because it's in my blog title: RELIENT K!!! They're performing along with some other bands that are not so popular, albeit Hawk Nelson.
I am stoked for their live performance in June. They are just f'ing awesome. I have to obtain some tickets, who wants to go??

April Showers bring May.....?
April, finally got some warm weather last week and some rain. Others refer to rain as showers or drizzles. They essentially call precipitation during the month of April: April Showers.
So, April showers......wait, hold on a second. Is that...is that snow? Well as long as it melts right aw...hold up again for a minute...is that.....snow build-up?! OK, I know this is Canada and all, a country that is much too often mistook for a land of never-ending winters and igloo filled cities, but this is just ridiculous. It's April and the quote always goes "April Showers bring May flowers." and not "April Showers Bring May Plowers." Seriously, I think Mother Nature is a good friend of God. God is always testing our character and He probably instructed Mother Nature to mess around with the weather. You know how you feel very lazy and uninspired during those long and cold winter months? That's what they want us to feel. They want to see how optimistic we are. They want to see how we stack up against the "elements". Well all I have to say is: "I laugh at your feeble attempts to discourage my spirits, Mother Nature!" Ahem. To make matters worse, no matter where I go, whether it's going to school or going back to my student boarding house, the snow was always against me. It kept hitting my face and getting all over my clothes. This always happens and quite frankly, all types of precipitation seem to like to go against my direction of movement, whether it be rain, snow or hail. (Thank God there has not been any occurrences of acid rain.) I go to school thinking: OK, if the snow is going against me on the way to campus, it will surely be behind me on my way back! I learned right there and then, making such assumptions about the weather is a major error. Much to my dismay, no matter where I was going, the precipitation went against me. Oh man. Well, like I said earlier, it's a test of your character. You just have to keep your head high, up in the clouds. If you're head isn't there, it can only be in one other place; in the ground, where you're swimming in dirt. There is no other place to keep your head. If you try to keep it in between, you will be struck by the strong gales high up in the clouds and the earthquakes beneath your feet will devour you; you try to balance your optimism and your pessimism, you will get torn apart. It's either one or the other. If I were you, I'd keep it high, who knows what's been in that dirt >.<
Oh Mother Nature, why you gotta play me like that?
Keep pushing through the elements,
Alan

This always happens and quite frankly, all types of precipitation seem to like to go against my direction of movement, whether it be rain, snow or hail. (Thank God there has not been any occurrences of acid rain.) I go to school thinking: OK, if the snow is going against me on the way to campus, it will surely be behind me on my way back! I learned right there and then, making such assumptions about the weather is a major error. Much to my dismay, no matter where I was going, the precipitation went against me. Oh man. Well, like I said earlier, it's a test of your character. You just have to keep your head high, up in the clouds. If you're head isn't there, it can only be in one other place; in the ground, where you're swimming in dirt. There is no other place to keep your head. If you try to keep it in between, you will be struck by the strong gales high up in the clouds and the earthquakes beneath your feet will devour you; you try to balance your optimism and your pessimism, you will get torn apart. It's either one or the other. If I were you, I'd keep it high, who knows what's been in that dirt >.<
Oh Mother Nature, why you gotta play me like that?
Keep pushing through the elements,

Immunobiology, Hoorah.
The time is around 9:00 am at the moment. As I sit here in the lecture hall, for my Anatomy and Physiology lecture, I am sleepy and unwilling to share my attention with Professor Campbell. This is a surprisingly intriguing lecture though. The human body's defense system is actually pretty impressive, it can adapt to a lot. We're probably not aware, but its fighting off foreign bodies every single day. Thank your body! (I won't go into detail, because the amount of detail in this lecture, as well as most lectures, is extremely descriptive.)
Oh, before I went to class I watched some Screw Attack on Gametrailers. It was about Strider on the NES. Those guys complained a lot about it because it wasn't pure action like its genesis counter part, no, it was Action RPG. I've never played a Strider game and I don't know much about them (Although I have played him on Marvel VS Capcom). All I know is that he's one bad ass ninja. Please Nex-Gen developers, make a PlayStation 3 Strider Hiryu, it would be so awesome.
P.S. Capcom, you better make a Megaman X game with Devil May Cry-ish or Ninja Gaiden-ish gameplay. Honestly, just imagining such a combination, it's godly. Megaman X FTW.
So that's it for now.
Yes! A successful second blog, I'm actually enjoying this.
Lecture On,
Alan

The Cry of a New Comer
Greetings, fellow net tube travelers. I come before you as a humble "noob", if you will. This is actually my very first "real" blog. I say that because I've never tried "real" blogging before. I plan to write stuff about the daily-going-ons of my life and I also plan to start writing a story here. I don't have a synopsis yet; I soon hope that I will be able to put one out. So until then, I shall think.
Yep, simply put, I will think.
Forge on,
Alan
