Ok so I watched the Laker parade on tv today. It was ok. It was funny because my dad said that he missed the last parade. I don't know what he was complaining to me about it for I missed the last one too.
I was disappointed that there wasn't any goofy dancing by the team or staff members. I was hoping there would be like when Madsen did it. Too bad nobody had a squirt gun either. The mood this time was not really a goofy one like it was with the last 3 parades. I did like the team philosophy of "ring". I don't know why, but it made me think of the No Doubt song "Full Circle" and the Japanese movie The Ring. But you know maybe I should use it too.
I made a profile on this blog directory site. I read on some website that if you list your blog in a blog directory site you'll get more readers. I need to change my user pic though. Here's my profile:

Miscellaneous Blog #11
With all this talk about the Laker parade not happening and then it got private donors. Which made me think how much chaos would the city of LA be if the Dodgers won the World Series? It's been a while since they won it.
I was going to write a blog tomorrow, but my dad hogged the computer all day yesterday...
I'm going to write a "nice" blog about him for fathers day. I should post the one I wrote last year comparing my dad to 3 tv dads in my archives blog.
I started a twibe- a twitter group. It's about Shirley Manson since I felt there was not really a group presence of the fans to gather on twitter.

NBA Champs 2009!
The Lakers are NBA champions once again, and Los Angeles is in celebratory chaos once again. It made me think how things are so different yet so the same as they were 7 years ago. They are having a parade.
So I'm throwing out the idea of having a class meetup. I'm not organizing it though somebody from my high school and class year can do that. It's funny because my dad said he wants to go to the parade. I didn't go to the last once since I was so tired from being at Grad Nite.

So the Lakers lost yesterday in a close game. I really should groom those eyebrows for good luck. :P
It’s only 2-1 for now. Lakers lead with 2.
Facebook is letting users pick personalized URLs at first I thought this was a good idea. Then after I thought about it I thought it wasn’t for me. It think it would be helpful to celebrity pages like Shirley’s and Tazz’s page. I won’t be choosing pikapal that’s too easy. I don’t want to be bothered on it by former high school classmates like I was with my myspace page. Maybe I’ll choose my first and last name. Maybe I won’t take one at all to keep the page secret.
You know what I read in a magazine? That brown is the most popular color of hair dye. It outsells red and blond. (black and non natural colors like blue were not mentioned in the article) I don’t believe it! I refuse to believe it! I thought everybody wanted to be a blond all the time. This is not just due to conditioning by my grandma. I know lots of girls who say everybody wants to be a blond, and they don’t even know my grandma. Perhaps this is a California thing? This is probably one of the few times I don’t believe something I read in a magazine; a credible magazine. Not a tabloid that says a lady birthed an alien in Florida.
It’s been cold and gloomy for the past few days. (June gloom) I actually prefer this weather. I’d rather be cold than sweating my ass off in 90 degree (Fahrenheit) weather.

Classmates or Fans?
On Thursday my family was talking about the last time the Lakers won a championship was the year I graduated high school. Which was 7 years ago and for some reason doesn’t seem like that long ago to me. My mom proposed (as a joke) that I should organize some type of class of 2002 reunion from my high school of Laker fans to meet up at the parade and have a banner that says something like “(my old high school) class of 2002 Laker fans” or something silly like that. I thought it would be a good idea to organize that on facebook. I facebook has other uses besides using it to write inane messages to celebrities. I got the idea to have the people wear yellow/gold since my school colors and the Lakers share that color.
Which reminds me I should groom my eyebrows. Usually when I groom my eyebrows the Lakers win a championship. Superstitious? I know. :P
In unrelated news I’m happy that Pierre came with Conan to LA. I love his recliner of rage I hope he brings that back. I’ll rant with him. :P
A few days ago my mom bought me a very strange toothbrush. It’s a Corbin Bleu one. It’s one of those Tooth Tunes kind. I think she thought it was a spin brush. I’m surprised I even know who he is and a little embarrassed that I admitted that on my blog. Wasn’t he in High School Musical? My toothbrush features a song from “Jump In”. What it that? Was that a movie?
I’m happy that The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya is back on. The first time it aired I missed 2 episodes; “Remote Island Syndrome (Part 1)” and “Live Alive“. I missed “Remote Island Syndrome” to watch Raw and I missed “Live Alive” due to a black out in my neighborhood which was really beyond my control.
This anime is better to watch a second time since I can notice all the little things I didn’t the first time I watched it.
I remembered my friend recommended this anime to me last year, but he couldn’t remember the name of it. After I started watching it I realized this was the anime he was describing.

miscellaneous blog #9
Let's see this will be another miscellaneous catch all blog. I hope my typing is a little better today my finger has healed.
It was raining today. I don't know, but after I moved I mellowed out a lot. No, I'm not on drugs or anything. The lighting and thunder doesn't scare or bother me as much as it use to. Maybe it's because there isn't a large tree by my bedroom window anymore and there is a 2 story house a few houses down. The lighting would likely hit that house first since it is higher. Of course when it rains you need the appropriate music. "Only Happy when it Rains" comes to mind and so does "The Sun and the Rain" by Madness. I also like the song "Like the Weather" by 10000 Maniacs, but I don't have it. I wasn't wearing my blue nail polish or my black boots. I did watch the video for "Only Happy when it Rains" too. It was nice and cloudy too; good weather for a Yaka. I'll explain the Yaka in the anime I'm watching called Sola a Yaka is a being who can't die, but they can't be in the sunlight either; it burns them like fire. They are also called a "Calamity of the night".
Speaking of music I'm not going to write a review of the song "Witness to Your Love". I might review the CD though. I haven't decided. I haven't even listened to all of it. I listened to the Garbage song and the Jack Johnson song.
So the Lakers are in the finals again. You know you can make fun of me for not having faith in them, but it's not over yet. They are only the Western Conference champions. You know they have been in the finals 6 times this decade. In 2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2008, and 2009. I don't follow basketball as intensely as Shirley or my dad, but I do like watching it.
In other semi-related sports news a lot of people are pissed that Kennedy got released. I don’t really see what was so great about him like everybody says. He wasn’t that good of a wrestler if he was hurting people while he wrestled. I never really got his gimmick either. I understood he was an announcer, but that’s all they did with him they never really expanded on the character. He was very injury prone too. He has potential I guess. Now is everybody going to hate on Randy since the rumor is that he had pull in getting released. Maybe Cena did too. That's just a thought. He was injured by Kennedy. I know a lot of people were happy when he was. The haterz. I know I spelled that with a "z". :P You know what's funny Kennedy's jersey number was #4 Walton's number. The number 4 is bad luck in eastern culture. Anybody who is swearing off the WWE more tickets for me...when I can afford them.
I invented a new sandwich today. It's really fatty. My mom bought these little microwave sausage biscuit sandwiches. They are small; about the size of a slider burger. They consist of nothing more than a biscuit and sausage patty. Recently I had been adding a slice of cheese to them because that's the way I like my sausage biscuit sandwiches. I added a slice of bacon and scrambled egg along with the slice of cheese. It was small yet fattening and decadent.
I don't know why my mom thinks I'm crazy because I want "summer" hair. She says that nobody dyes their hair lighter for the summer and darker for the winter, but she is wrong. I know/knew people who do/did. It's very common. I keep reading that fair skinned people should not be brunettes. This confuses me so much because I'm fair skinned, and I was born like that. Maybe I should keep changing my hair color until I can't afford it.
I was thinking if I wrote a book about my dad and growing up with him would anybody read it?

Graduates and Champions
Here is a really funny graduation/NBA Finals related story. Back when I was graduating high school in 2002, yes I’m that old. They gathered us up for some sort of senior meeting or something. I use to find these mandatory meetings annoying, boring, and rather lame.
A lot of people were getting mad at me because I didn’t feel like crying. I‘m not even sure why I needed to. I was happy to leave the place. They kept getting mad because I said the only tears I might cry would be tears of joy because I finally was out of school.
This was the morning of graduation. They were trying to get us pumped up about graduating. They were telling us about the Lakers winning the Championship. They wanted us to applaud that. Ok I was cool with that. Then they wanted us to applaud ourselves because we were graduating and that deserved applause. I didn’t think we did. A lot of people graduate high school. You know how hard it is to get into the NBA? And then be on a team that won the Championship? I only applauded the Lakers.
