I NEED TO PLAY!!! AAAAAHHH!!!

Hey my people! Wut the deal up in herre!? =p tryin to sound like Nelly therre...although it doesn't quite work when typin...oh well...
Anyways, here I am, once again, to let u know wut's up with this man! Yeah, u didn't know I could rhyme like that, did ya?! I make poems and rhymes pretty easily actually, I just never posted one here...I wonder why...I gotta start doin that, can't keep talent inside a cage forever!
Now, talkin about talent, I don't wanna blow my own horn, but I know what I'm worth in some stuff. I know I suck at politics and other issues like that, but I'm good at massage and relaxing techniques, as well as sports issues and nutrition. And I also know I'm a pretty good ball player. I wouldn't be on a semi-pro team if I wasn't, right? But then why does the coach insist on benchin me?! I mean, sure, I'm one of the younger guys on the team, but that takes my self confidence values to a low level... I'm not one to get down easily, but it's been like this since the biggining of the season. I believe hard work can do anything and will take u anywhere, but it's gettin harder to believe this as days go by. I know I'm one of the guys who works the hardest on the team, runnin, playin D, reboundin, all that. But it's not makin anything for me... I guess I gotta start shootin some more, and being more of a ball hog like many of them... It's not like I lose anything with it, right? But that's just not me... I don't know, I just feel kinda down cuz the coach supports many of my team mates in a different way. If I make a mistake, he just doesn't say a thing, but if someone else makes a mistake, he'll go up and say sumtin to him. Yeah, it may sound weird, but he could do the same to me. I mean, that will actually show that he pays some attention to wut I do. It's all good though, pouting during practice won't take me anywhere either, I'll just have to keep on tryin prove him wrong. Life can't be easy, but it can be taken my way! In practice tomorrow I'll show e'rybody the real Jumpkid and wut I'm really about! That business! I'll holla later y'all! PEACE!!

2 more songs!

Hey again! How's it hangin? Chillin here...
Ok, so last week or so I heard about this singer called James Blunt. At first I thought it was pretty funny for a guy to have the name of sumtin u usually smoke (at least some people... =p) but that's about it. I didn't really know and I still don't know anything about him.
But today I found out he sings 2 songs that I'm pretty much addicted to! "Goodbye my Lover" and "You're beautiful".
One cuz of the stage of my life I went through and both of them cuz they're pretty good to chill... of course, I thought of course they had to be good to chill, the guy's name is Blunt! The songs had to get u in the mood to chill! But more than that, I can really identify myself with the lyrics of them... not totally, but mostly. If u been readin this blog, u'll know why...
Another song I can really identify myself with is Mariah Carey's "Don't forget about us". Sure, Mariah always had really good songs that many people all over identify themselves with, but... I don't know, this one, just touched me...Yeah, so I'm bein lame now... I just thought I'd share that with u. U should know by know that I like to share =)
Anyways, just thought I'd leave u with the lyrics of this song and also of "Goodbye my lover" by James Weed...I mean, James Blunt =p. Well, u got the name of the song and singer already, so u go look for the lyrics. I'll leave u wit my version of them =) I'll holla at y'all later. PEACE!


"Till One Day My Lover"

I disappointed you and let you down
But should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I never saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw we were blinded and I knew we both had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right
Took your soul out into the night
It may be over but it won't stop there, I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart, you touched my soul
You changed my life and all my goals
Love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been and still am addicted to you.

Till one day my lover.
Till one day my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been and I still think you are the one for me

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and how good we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.
But I also have to face the truth
I'll never be with you...

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow. I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow...

Wow...Wutever he was smokin when he wrote these lyrics, he pretty much said it all for me! Not goodbye, but hope to see u someday... ='(



NEXT SONG: Don't forget about us

Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Every night tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby

Now everytime I see you I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about

Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Girl P, you'll always be in my heart
So don't forget about us

I'm just speaking from my heart and from how long it's been
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us

I just wanna see you smile
Even if it's with someone else by your side
I just say it's cool
It had to happen sooner or later, I feel really happy for you
What we had was great
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it
There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let
The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret
So don't forget about us

I had my head all messed up
That's the trickery
I wanted to have it like how this lovin' used to be
I just hope he's a much better lover than me
All I really want is for you to be really happy
Baby just don't you forget about us
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us...
(I know I won't...)


PEACE AND LOVE TO ALL Y'ALL!!

Early...or late...it just depends on the point of view... =p

Hey my peoples! How's it goin?
Aight here...could be better... It's 5 in the morning and I really don't feel like sleepin right now. I had a game today in the afternoon, so when I got home, at about 8 p.m., I got some sleep till like 11h30 p.m.... I guess that's why I don't feel sleepy right now. I'm tired though...weird...
Ok, so wut can I say today?... Not much, I just had a cup game today, it was pretty easy. We blew the other team out and I even dunked twice! Definitely need to do that in a champinship game! That felt good! Dunkin, crossin up people, just playin ball...It's like I go into another zone, where I don't have no worries and where I do wut I love the most...that just gets me away from all the stuff I've been goin thru, u know? ...With my mom recovering from the chemotherapy she underwent, with my grandma gettin weaker by the day and not remembering simple stuff, with my heart...well, more like without my heart, cuz that still belongs to someone else...
I'm not one to complain though. It's messed up all this I'm goin thru, but I always think that there are people who have it way worse. And they don't have a blog to share their thoughts with other people from all over the world...they may not even have friends to talk to about wut's goin in their minds. So I have to consider myself quite fortunate cuz I still have a roof over my head, cuz I have access to a computer, cuz I have friends... With all that's happening around the world, hurricanes, wars, poverty... That makes me wonder where some of the people who are caught up in the middle of that find the strenght to still dust their shoulders off and keep on movin. I wish I could help them, but unfortunately I don't have the power to do so. All I can do is express my solidarity and utmost respect for them by sharing my feelings. Many of them are true examples of willing to live. Thank you cuz you already had a great impact in my life. You made me always look for a positive point of view, no matter how screwed up the situation can be. You made me see and treat everybody as equals, not ignoring or discrminating someone because of their looks, race, gender, age, religion or past acts. I know I'm prolly a lil naive by thinkin like this, but I've always believed in karma, that wut goes around comes around, that u should do to others as you'd like others to do to u. It's gotta start somewhere, right? I did start already... So it might as well keep on goin with a 22 year old boy from Portugal that goes by the name of Jorge "J.C." Silva =)
I'll holla at y'all tomorrow! PEACE OUT! Kisses and Hugs
