Man it really feels like Fall. Final day playing ball and it was a doozy...Played against Q-Tip [Tribe Called Quest] while Leo Di Caprio was watching one of his boys play. He eventually subbed in, but didn't impress. Kinda kept to himself...anyways, heading back to work tommorow. A little bummed but excited at the same time
. As the last official day of summer ends for me, I will try to look back on my summer vacation....
*Probably my highlight was my trip to Canada. It was a mini family reunion where the intent was to see cousins I haven't seen in a while, plus to see my grandparents and my aunts and uncle. Although I was there for only a week, I had a really fun time.
me, Parry, JJ, David, Afro Ken I tower over the CN Tower...roar!
We bonded over wrestling, freestyling, mixing records, bball and video games! I guess its what guys do. It was nice to talk to them and my aunts and uncles on a more adult level.
Winning bball team The losers...ha ha The men in the fam... Thats right grandpa, chicks dig bald heads
* After that, I was entered the world of Xanga! My bro and cousins had it so I experiemented. It has been a fun ride so far. 5,000 visitors after a month and half to me was considered unfathomable! Its cool, seeing so many people use it as a form of expression and communication and to see my kids have their own as well!
* This summer I have learned many things:
- Give me too much time to do nothing, and I will buy a lot of gadgets, clothes and download a lot of music.
- Not to be a flake or have flakish tendencies.
- Those who are or who do [above], don't hate...just invest less time with them.
- Past relationships can be more painful than I give them credit for.
- Nature and silence are underrated...
- Go into a "bad" situation with a more "positive" outlook, makes things not that bad!
- I CAN cook....some stuff...
- I would like to go away more during my vacations!
- I like motorcyles...[sorry mom]. Can't help it.
- I don't really like any of the presidential nominees. Just going with the lesser of two evils.
- My freestlying is not THAT bad....Its a tiny bit better than your average person!
- I am going to talk less about things that I want to do...until I actually do it.
- There are people there that actually like reading some of my stuff. Thats cool...
Thanks!

Sounds like a great summer!
And Xanga is so cool isn't it? Definitely the nicest group of people I've ever met on the internet. I am so glad the day a friend drug me to this site kicking and screaming and insisted I set up an account...originally set up to just whine about how my husband was on deployment...but I discovered that people liked reading some of my attempts at humor and I was hooked! 
I wish it felt like fall here, too...but it was 104° yesterday...and just as freaking hot today!

u do have great xanga entries dude .. keep em coming!
i'm sad about summer ending, too .. i feel like i didn't do as much as i should've AND fall/winter can be such a blue time :-b blah ... we need 6 mos of summer, no??
why yes, your xanga entries are very interesting to read. and being shaven of head, isn't that particularly cold in winter? maybe some hair is in order. and i'm guessing you can grow a beard, so rat hairs do not apply to you.
btw, you're my new eye candy!!
