Today was fantabulous, it has been awhile since I have been up at the mountains. Waking up early was the only hurdle, because of that stomach ache. The night before went by so quick, and I felt so full eating out with friends. I did not even plan to eat, but my friends could not stand to see me sit with no food so they all chipped in for me. I think I need to watch all of Hajime no Ippo, I have blogged about it respectively with life but actually never sat down to enjoy it. It always pops up in a conversation with every friend I know that watches anime. They say it fits my interests so perfectly, and that there is no way I would dislike it. This is me doing 10 pull-ups on a random tree due to peer pressure. I ended up having a good workout climbing up the mountain multiple times to sled. Best part was when I climbed a tree and posed as a koala.

If you guys keep up with HIMYM, New Girl, and ever seen Crazy Stupid Love you would be one of the few to appreciate the references. Allusions are very powerful especially when it comes to getting the attention of a particular audience. You can pretty much isolate the people who are not informed, because everyone else will be laughing except them.
I have to say that I enjoy seeing references in my favorite tv shows, maybe a little too much. Some people who may see me watching may not understand the reference which makes it not funny for them. Sadly, you cannot satisfy everyone. The scene where Dwight reads Harry Potter made me laugh so hard, because I actually have the whole volume series of the voice audio for every "Harry Potter" book. Yes, I get lazy to read, and it is an amazing bedtime story. jajajaja c:
As a boxing fan, this would probably be my favorite fight that is the most inspirational to me. I'll break down why, and how it can relate to those who have "passion" in their lives. Buster Douglas, a huge underdog, was going into a fight in Tokyo, Japan for the Heavyweight Title with the most destructive force in boxing who people called the unbeatable "Iron Mike Tyson." Douglas at the time was going through hard times with his personal life, at the time he was separated with his wife and everything was going downhill. His mom who did not really agree with him boxing knew he was troubled, so she would always check up on him, and support him to make sure he was prepared for the fight. The most painful moment in his life would come a couple weeks before the big fight. His mother passed away, which motivated and intensified his training further. Douglas would dedicate this fight to his mother. During the fight, he was knocked down pretty bad by Tyson, but he got back up and never gave up. The world was shocked to see Tyson in trouble for the first time, and awed when he gets knocked out declaring Buster Douglas the new Heavyweight champion. I like the quote from the Rocky movie, "It’s not about how hard you can hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward…" People can put you down all they want and tell you what you are doing is not realistic, but showing heart and never giving up will change their disposition.
Hands get cold when I am at home. It is a good thing they made gloves to keep your hands warm. Only problem is if you work with touch pads. These gloves are so lame ! Improvising with finger gloves is great. :) I wish I could knit...maybe I will make that my next goal in life...
_Finally finished all six seasons, and it was excellent! There is not much on television nowadays that can capture the emotion that this series did. All great things must come to an end...on a good note, still have "The Office,""New Girl,"and "How I Met Your Mother." Still, there will not be anything as great as the "Wonder Years."
_The video surprised me very much as I was watching it all the way through. I love bikes, and the scenery is just lovely. The music along with the video makes me feel very happy. The band name "Sunbears," also sounds like something you would hug...I think. Well, I am keeping an eye on this band.
_To be or not to be? Whether I should gorge myself with the nastiest of foods, or eat fruits and exercise. I have time...be right back. I need more ice-cream. No, but seriously I love theater and couldn't stop thinking about it after watching "Anonymous." Can you blame me?
Hamlet: To be, or not to be, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep, No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep; To sleep, perchance to dream--ay, there's the rub: For in that sleep of death what dreams may come, When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause—there's the respect That makes calamity of so long life. For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay, The insolence of office, and the spurns That patient merit of th'unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death, The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will, And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pitch and moment With this regard their currents turn awry And lose the name of action. Hamlet Act 3, scene 1, 55–87 [Italics mine] _Hmm....my very first song upload of the site. I love music really, you can say I am pretty versatile when it comes to music choice. Stemming from songs as mellow as "Stand By Me" (oldies), alternative rock, and the newest releases of music you may call art. Turntable.fm is such a great site if you love music. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT !!!
