Best Commercial Ever Revision

OK, a couple of months ago, I said the best commercial ever was that winterfresh one with the corporate dude... I soooooo renege on that statement. Best commercial series ever was the Puma commercials for the Jamaican Track Team for the Athens Olympics. I remember when that commercial came out, especially the one when they were at the dancehall.... sheeeet son.. Hold Attention!!! Hot business. I've enclosed a reproduction for your viewing (I just went to a resume workshop, deal with it)




And why am I starting to get sad again...MAN what I wouldn't do for like one night at the Ritz man... just ONE NIGHT! Like for real, there was nothing like breaking upwards of 10 dudes off in one night man... And no, I'm not a whore, I'm just talking dancing wise. Someone please remind me why I didn't go to Georgetown for law school? Please remind me... man I'm aching for it. Well, I guess that just means that I have to get Three A's and a B (i've given up in Con Law... accept my fate son) and get that job/internship in DC this summer....

Riddims

It still amazes me how different all dancehall riddims are and yet the are so similar (in a good way). The all posses pretty much the same parts, there just switched around a bit. So the new ones for 2007 I like include....

- Heathen
- Drumline/Timeline
- Red Razor
- Gully Slime
- Nookie

Heathen especially has that beat pattern I like... kinda the same like the b'more club music. That same basic pa... pa... pa... pa... pa pa... pa etc. Just makes you wanna get on the floor and gyrate... in a classy way of course. LOL. Brings me back to good ole days of freshman year in the RITZ!!!! Yeah, it was a ghetto club*, but hey, they played the best dancehall in DC at that point.

* Ghetto meaning torn up couches, sticky floor, just kinda grimey. I suppose I coulda used the term "dive", but who uses dive in terms of clubs? I mean seriously. That term is for bars. So although I don't necessarily like the work ghetto.... it shall suffice in the situation as I cannot find an appropriate substitute.

Ideas v. Reality

I personally think ideas of things are better than reality, or in most cases. Sometimes, you can build a picture in your mind of something but when you are confronted with the reality of it, it is not as good as you imagined it to be. This goes for people especially. But you know, it doesn't take away from what the person is, it just kinda sucks when you build someone up to be something and then they are sooo not that thing.

Onto better news, I just got back from DC and I had sooo much fun. I visited four schools; loved two and really disliked two others. I went by myself and it was an experience that I needed. I walked every where and Metroed like a pro. It was great. I learned that I can be self-sufficient. I also learned that I need to grow up a bit, which relates to the first paragraph. Being in CA under my parents has really stifled me in regards to my personal growth. That is why I applied to no California law schools because as much as I love them, the only way for me to grow is to be out from under them.

All and all, it was a great trip except for the last day. LOL. I learned a lot about myself and what I need to work on and actually it has helped my relationship with my boyfriend to because I sorted out some personal mind issues. Which is always a good thing. I wasn't ready to come home, but at some time the dream stops and we wake up.

DC Trippin

I am not talking about the smoking ban, because I am quite in favor of that. I actually think that EVERY STATE, COUNTY, whatever should do this. If you want to kill yourself with those cancer sticks, then you do so, but don't make me sit her and suffer just because you want to "release". I am straight off that. That's the only thing that I have enjoyed being in CA for the last three years... I didn't have to deal with going to a club and coming home smelling like an ashtray. It's not hot and does not get it. Sorry.

So the reason I am writting this post is because I will be going to DC really soon to check out some law schools and I am really excited. Thus DC... Trippin. Ha. I am going BY MYSELF... which is exciting for me because I can follow my own schedule. I never visited the monuments or anything of that nature and I am really excited about doing that for the first time.

Side Note: I decided not to visit University of Maryland, Baltimore. There has been 10 murders in B-More since Jan 1, 2007... it is Jan 11, 2007... there is an issue here. It's really not cute guys. Let's BE REAL.

By the way, NW hotels are so freaking expensive, it isn't even cool. But whatever. That's what you gotta do to up the lessen your chances of being a statistic. That sounds so bad to write that, but it is true.
