OUCH!

Yo, I think it went fairly well. We didn't win, but we weren't the best either, but we did come second so that's not bad. Here are the winners:





They deserved it.

Here are the results:

1. Mcmaster Young'nz


2. UW Hip Hop


3. York Dance


4. UW Dance


5. Laurier

We were the only team with guys on it.



Paola and Terry from V.Y.B.E judged along with Mikey Bustos




Mikey was a crowd favourite. I have a funny video clip of him. He's holding the camera actually. I'll put it up some time.

Maestro ripped it up. I was suprised at his new tracks and lyrics. I got to have few conversations with him. He calls me, "Ray, the big man". haha.





This is me with Maestro's DJ Scam. This guy was cool.




Don't worry. I'll post more non-ray pics soon. The night went well. Everyone performed well.

Thus ends another hip hop term. Whether or not I'll be running it again is still up in the air.


Thanks to Dylan for wrapping the beautiful prizes. I don't anyone is better than her at doing that. Thanks for Sayson and fam for djing. Thanks to my brotha's geoff and glen for showing support. Thanks to Czar and leen for the support. Thanks for Teo for going nuts for me.


Thanks to my exec for an incredible job. Holy crap they did a lot of work. Thanks to Mikey and Lawrence for everything. Thanks to Arda and Xiang for hosting. Thanks to terry and paola for judging.

Thanks to everyone who packed up the bomber. The support and turnout were incredible.

One thing cleaned off my plate. I got a few more big ass pieces of chicken to swallow.

My roomates

I think I have always lived with people who show obsessive compulsive behaviour. Like, Ray x 3.

I'll be on local radio tomorrow

I'll be on CKMS 100.3FM Radio Waterloo tomorrow at 9:30PM. I'll be promoting the hip hop competition, OUCH, and giving away tickets.

The show is called A-OK and hosted by Arda Ocal. Much thanks to the station and the host.

The website is http://radio2.feds.ca/aok/

....thanks for the text message....thanks for listening.

Obsessive Compulsive Personality

My girlfriend majors in English and Psychology so I'm pretty sure she knows what she's talking about when she says that I show symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Personality. It's a sign of a true friend when they warn you of your deviations and problems in life. It is always hard to tell some one this.

So these are the symptoms and some of them are incredibly accurate (for me).

A pervasive pattern of preoccupation with orderliness, perfectionism, and
mental and interpersonal control, at the expense of flexibility, openness,
and efficiency, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of
contexts, as indicated by four (or more) of the following:

1. is preoccupied with details, rules, lists, order, organization, or
   schedules to the extent that the major point of the activity is lost
2. shows perfectionism that interferes with task completion (e.g., is unable to complete a project because his or her own overly strict standards are not
   met)
3. is excessively devoted to work and productivity to the exclusion of
   leisure activities and friendships (not accounted for by obvious economic
   necessity)
4. is overconscientious, scrupulous, and inflexible about matters of
   morality, ethics, or values (not accounted for by cultural or religious identification)
5. is unable to discard worn-out or worthless objects even when they have no sentimental value
6. is reluctant to delegate tasks or to work with others unless they submit
   to exactly his or her way of doing things
7. adopts a miserly spending style toward both self and others; money is
   viewed as something to be hoarded for future catastrophes
8. shows rigidity and stubbornness


so if you exhibit these symptoms, you are not alone.

Complicated

Yes Avril Lavigne said it best....relationships are complicated! They're also complicated enough without some faceless, nameless hoe getting in between.

Being apart is hard enough, I know you're extremely busy with everything but all I have to say is just...DEAL! It seems as though I'm getting all the crappy hands!

WHOA...

Thanks to CZAR and DY for calling people for the surprise...you two are the best!!!

I had no clue that I would actually get a surprise from my friends...

I see Hendrik's car...and i was like...
"hey what a coincidence...czar, lets go find where your brother is sitting"

then i see Booms head..and i was like..."whoa...they're here too? what a coincidence..."

then it clicked only AFTER they all said "surprise!!!"

I'm an idiot...BUT THANKS TO ALL!!!

first initials of attendees...look to find your initial...thanks!!!:

M-G-F-C-G-T-M-T-J-F-J-M-M-G-J-T-D-A-B-M-M-K-J-A-H-G-?

i'm a loser baby

So why don't ya ... me

Interesting weekend. One positive thing that I can take from this weekend was that I was operating at near peak effeciency. I got a lot of work done.

On the other end of the shtick was today. After doing a decent amount of work, I flip on the raptor game and do work simultaneously. Raps get smoked. I do more work after the game. The positive: maybe that crazy trade might happen afterall.

Then I rush to my A-level vball playoff game. We win the first set. Then we have 3 match points in the second set, but eventually lose. Damn it. Ah well. Positive things from that: I played acceptably, more time for homework next week.

After that, I have a practice for hip hop. We run through for an hour or so then we perform for the Accounting Students association. Yes, I know, sounds massively geeky. We enter, and they're doing a date auction. I witness this chick pull in $50 from this dude. Whoa man.

I don't have a good vybe about this thing. Not a lot of people and it's in MC! Ah well. We get start and it's mad quiet and people are starring right into your grill. Ah man awkward. When will it end?

Positives: more practice..eh not much positives

You know I think I write code 12-16 hours a day. That's insane err I'm insane err I will be insane.

oo ooo oo there's a bit more...i did a quick and cheesy promo for the event on friday
http://www.geocities.com/uw_hiphop/ouch/

Also some pics from our performance at Loose change louie's here


So I know what you're thinking? Ray, you just do hip hop now? NO! 5th element has some shows coming up (friday) and 2 fridays after that.

Lakers pics

My Lakers vs Raptors pictures are up on my site finally.

this dude called brent

I talked to Brent yesterday over MSN. If you don't remember Brent, he's my boy from high school. His picture has been featured here on my site. Numerous searches for his name hit my site.

Anyways, I wanna say congratulations to him for being 1st runner up in the MTV Phillippines Best Model 2003 contest. He also won the "Best Body" Award. Apparently, he's ripped now. He gets to go to China for something in February.

that's amazing. Good job dude! We'll road trip and shop somewhere when you get back.

OUCH

I'm running a show. It's called OUCH (Ontario University Competition for Hip Hop). As the name connotes, it's a hip hop dance competition. It will be in waterloo. So far, we've got McMaster, Laurier, 2 teams from York, and 2 teams from Waterloo. It's unfortunate that UofT has done nothing all term.

What's interesting about this competition is that we're all University students struggling mightily with time management. So we'll see what these people can do with the little free time they have.

And that's not it. We've also got Canadian Idol finalist, Mikey Bustos, performing and judging. We also have hip hop legend, Maestro performing. If things work out as well, 5th Element will be spinning. As you know, Fresco of 5th Element did out logos e.g.


Friday November 28th
9PM competition starts
University of Waterloo, Bombshelter

$7 you go to waterloo
$9 you don't





....................................

I've got Chariots of Fire by Vangelis playing out of my MP3 collection right now. Weird. You don't know that song? Kazaa that.

till next time ladies and gentlemen....

remembrance

It's remembrance day today.

I almost forgot. Years down the road, people will begin to feel disconnected from September 11th like some people are disconnected from today.

Sleep at work

At least you don't sleep at work and have your coworkers waking you up!

Late for work?

I didn't know there was such thing as 'late for work' at RIM. I woke up at 9:43 am today. Totally slept in. Had a dream about a space shuttle that didn't launch properly and of complaining at a grocery store cuz they removed the soup from the shelf.

shaky start

After a fairly restful weekend, I am having a shaky start to the week. I woke up to pick up Krispy Kreme doughnuts for fund raising. Like in Europe, this Mendoza got lost. After driving around and coming back to the university, I finally head to work.

I forgot the CD I was working on for work. So I drive back to my apartment to get it. Then go back to work...

Of course I'm late to work.

I wonder what the rest of the week has in store for me.

MSN Messenger memory leak

I think my MSN Messenger has a severe memory leak. It keeps on allocating memory at a rate of 400KB/s. Eventually, it takes up 300MB of RAM/Virtual Memory.

I don't know what's going on. Maybe I'll try a reinstall..



Dy came by for lunch today. She drove all the way from toronto just to see me for a few hours. How sweet....


Today was GroundFX Breaking event at waterloo. Krazy Bonez is the man. He ripped it. So did Pieces, but Jay(Krazy bones) .... dirts..



Krazy bones is the one between me and Geoff.

Communication

In my screenplay I talk to my suitemate on a cellphone. We never got to film that opening scene.

Is your email junkmail or not? I get a lot of email at work because I subscribe to the Classifieds mailing list. You never know when there might be some free stuff that comes up. That's how I got Padres tickets. But my rogers account is so bad that I had to shut it down.

the days are long

I think I get one email every 5 minutes on average. That's a lot I think. Looking through my blackberry, it seems that way.

That can't be a totally bad or good thing. Sometimes I email the guy who sits across from me. When living in residence or an apartment, my dad doesn't understand why I use ICQ to communicate with my roommates.

midterm

I have a midterm today. Prayers would be nice =).

Maestro has been confirmed for the Competition on Nov 28th in waterloo.

If any of you want to go, let me know.

I think you guys noticed those logos that fres did. They're on the left side of this page. Cool eh?

life? acceptable

chuggin along

I don't think that'll ever happen to me. We don't get sharks much....at least I don't think we do....

Hahahahaha...I spent $10 on a fake silvery chain and bracelet, and two $4 cab rides. Every price is negotiable. I dunno if I'll be back there though. I'll have pics up soon.

re: The Sounds of Mexico

So was the $40 worth it?

The Sounds of Mexico

"Hey guys you like girls? We got great girls! Come inside!"

"Hey the best beer and best tacos! 3 for 1!"

"Hey buddy, forty dollars and I'll let you spend some time with my sister in the back"

"Anybody need a cab ride?"

"Want to see the donkey?"

"Money! Money!"

Once you cross the border it's a whole different world.
