turks vs. mexicans

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

duuuude its like the world cup over here. if we get off early, we go up to the park which is epic. tons of grass and the backdrop is mountains covered in snow and trees.

the turks are all finesse. their footwork is amazing, but the mexicans have the ganas y los juevos and were all up in their face.

but they keep beating us the past two games because they are very organized.
the first game i could only play one half because i am so fat.
but the second game a played the whole game and i almsot scored but it hit the post, luckily my teamate roderigo made the rebound and i got the assist.
and my d game is back, just like my AYSO days. did you know i played at the rosebowl for my regional playoffs? i did. whenever i'm fullback, i shut em down.
over and out.

alaska mix cd contest rules are here!

i had several questions so here are some answers...
1. yes, rap music is acceptable, as long as it has to do with getting paid, the struggle, hoes and so forth.
2. cock rock is a term used for raw blue collar man work, the person offended by this term whom i will leave nameless probably has penis envy.
3. compolations are ok, but don't over do it, just have fun. thats all get to work!

this is very serious!a new contest with 3 winners!i need an awesome mix cd.
as the story goes im on the cleaning crew at night and theres no radio here and the only cd they have is the whackest mix ever!
seriously. we are doing raw man work and the songs blasting in the air are melissa ethridge's come to my window, lady in red and wilson phillips. i couldnt believe it! im appauled! this doesnt make me want to lift heavy objects, this music makes me want to light candles and watch thelma and louise.a nd the turkish guys think that this is american music! im counting on you to show them how its done right!
your mission soldiers is as follows. make a mega mix off cock rock jams. if you need help with this go rent roadhouse or over the top. i need manly music like eye of the tiger, zztop's legs, or smoking in the boys room, monster ballads are acceptable as well and we just added rap music.
the contest has three categories to win from.
1. best overall track list
2. best title for your mix cd
3. best artwork for the mix cd (luis, if you draw that 2 headed goblin fucking a prince, you automatically win this categorie).

day 2 in anchorage

so i called the original hostel i was supposed to stay at because i had a 2 night reservation there. a girl answered with some weird as name like nirvanala and she said ohhh. yeah chris took your reservation, he's not really good at that. we have you booked for next week. sorry. i was like what the fuck. and she was all well just take the bus down here and exit at Seward and we'll take care of you. so i took the bus and got of at Seward. i walk for about a mile or so with all my luggage and call her. im like where is this place? and she as all like, oh noooo, the third Seward exit, see you soon! i was like what the fuuuuuuck. but i got a chance to walk through the city. i got to see rose's alterations and tailoring and wesley's coin shop. none of the fancy things you take on one of those expensive cruises. i got to see the real deal, like the burger barn. this side of the city reminded me of a spread out west covina. no architecture or anything struck me. it just was what it was. a small town.
so i arrive at the hostel and realize its run by potheads. i load my gear into my room and take the bus back to downtown. the bus system is awesome here and easy to learn. i went straight for the anchorage art museum. i only had one day so i had to run through it. it was amazing. mostly landscapes and pictures of boats. but these guys were colorists. they were nuts. but then it got better. the Inuit art was insane. a lot of the images looked like stuff souther would do as it was very minimal and child like and there was also a lot of fabric work which reminded me of caroline. up here you see your friends in everything. there were tons of awesome sculptures made of ivory. i was very impressed.
upstairs was the history museum which had tons of cool stuff that showed the history of alaska, from the ice age land bridge, to the gold rush, to the establishments made. it was cool.
then i went across the street to the Russian orthodox museum. Natascha would have loved it. it was about the size of the press and was long and narrow. very detailed and a lot of gold work. they had priests working there and they brew there own coffee.
next i went to the anchorage mall. it was funny. especial to see there nordstroms mac girls. i was thinking, you're in alaska. why would you be a mac girl up here?
then i went to a bunch of bars, they have the best beers on tap and the people are really cool. i bet i looked like a tourists trying out and asking about their micro brews, so after a while i just stuck to pabst. the rest of the day gets better, but i have to go back to work now. hope this gave you all some insights. bye.

first night in alaska.

i was on my way and had a lay over in San Francisco. i couldn't get off the phone, i must have called all of my friends 2-3 times. i was already missing them i guess. the sf airport was awesome and i got to watch the all star games home run derby as is it was playing just down the street from me. all together the plane ride was just about 4-5 hours just to get there. when i arrived i was like whoa. it was 1am and i got a cab to a hostel i had arranged to stay at. the bad news is, arriving this late they leave a key for you on a bulletin board and when i showed up there was no key there or anyone to contact.

so i had to call a cab thinking i would go back to the airport and spend the night there. but he told me there was one downtown still open so we went down there and it was. and it was run by two crackheads like you'd see on an hbo special. i was sketchin, but it was only 20 bucks so i got a room. it was my first time in a hostel. i tried to not make so much noise and i couldn't sleep because i guess i was anxious and i snore very loudly. i slept like 2 hours. i woke up and my roommates were gone and i was ready for day 2.

paging mr. herman

so the title, Jesus was fisherman and a carpenter. and his name is Jesus which means he must be Mexican, like me. this blog is more than just a bunch of random thoughts. i thought i should had some type of goal or purpose to this. ultimately i would like to own my own boat and be a fisherman on my own. this blog, will act as a timetable until that time. right now I'm at ocean beauty sea foods work as a processor. I've been on the slime line as they call it and gut fish for 15 hours and I've also done canning like la verne and shirley, which is terrible b the way. it's only been a week and I've had burns and crushed fingers. the work is like prison and along the week i will just post random things that happen each day. I've noticed i have insomnia most of the time and i space out constantly. on really funny things. for example, i work with a guy name herman. so every time i see him, say in the break room or passing on the floor, i say "paging mr. herman. mr. herman., you have a telephone call." and he's like 40 and looks at me like I'm nuts. he always asks what it's from, but i never tell him. today he quit. he was from Tempe Arizona. so for the past hour or so I've been saying it incessantly in different voices besides the one from the movie. see. this blog will be fun. and when the time comes when i get my own boat it will be funner.

i must go back to work now. bye.
