My daily document

I just discovered that even my shot was not proper enough. I am suppose to put my right elbow up more to make it look perfect. It takes less power but I need to work on controlling the accuracy. I also need to put it right above my head. Since my elbow is further out, that will give the ball a powerful push and make a curve instead of straight shot that hits the rim and bounces back. I think that it will take me a month or so to get use to it. I did not do jump shots recently. I only did 10 in the past two days. I guess that it was because I did not have time, I had swimming lessons yesterday afternoon, and cadets today. That was why I said no to cadets in the first place, it would take away my time. I had work and my parents would not let me go saying that I needed to go to cadets and would not have the god damn time which I do. I had time for about 1 hour! Summery for cadets after experiencing it: Useless piece of shit that takes away my time and makes my parents think that it is...

Can I please use this font for my documents from now on, it is very annoying to having to switch the fonts every time I do this. Just as annoying as shit. I want to switch the default font to Arial does anyone know how? This font is actually not bad, I just do not understand why you do not like this and always wanted to use Arial. I am not reading a lot of books, but I read a lot of stories and books online, on both my iPod and my computer. It probably adds up to 3 or 4 books already. I read them before I go to sleep, I read them when I wake up. I even read them when I am bored. I choose to read these online books and stories instead of reading actual books or play video games. Well, not exactly not-not playing video games, but more like much less. Do not tell my parents about this or else they will take away my iPod or make me read real books instead of the online ones which I prefer. My dad is making me writing down my plan for the day, what I want to do and when exactly. I canno...

I have to take swimming lessons again tomorrow, NO! It is boring, and I am stuck with a bunch of kids who are younger than me, that is bullshit. I do not know why I even agreed to learn swimming in the first place. I can swim without being drowned. I do not want to become a lifeguard, that is stupid! Plus, I have no interest in participate in any swimming activites, so what is the point? School is starting tomorrow, YES! I can finally meet my friends, wake up early in the god damn morning and practice basketball. While enjoying those times in middle school. I guess that is what I think the school is good about. I like running with my friends during recess, while playing manhunt. I cannot do any jump shot today because it is raining, NO! It will make my later on days harder and requires to do more jump shots in the next few days. I also practice other stuff like lay ups, and dribbling, not just jump shots. I am going to play now, good night.

I had a goal for myself. It was to complete 5000 jump shots by the end of next month. I wanted to do 50000, but considering that I had to go to school and I had Cadets and swimming on mondays and Tuesdays, I would not be able to complete it without ditching school. After calculation, I decided to do 5000 which was only one tenth of the former goal. I had to do at least 200 per day to complete my goal. I started yesterday, when I did 200 jump shots and gave myself a sore shoulder and back. I did only a set of 100 today considering that I had a sore back. Yesterday I had my friends to help me to get the ball, but not today, so I had to run back and forth which made me lost my mood and the feeling of the shot. For some reason, I thought that I used more power from my left hand than my right hand because my left arm was more exhausted than my right. I did not know why but it just happened.  I am at 300 right now, I still have 4700 more to go.

Today I went to Fort Langley, the place where the province of British Columbia all started. It was like a mini town. It had almost everything. It had a farm and garden, blacksmith shop, trading sections, council house, shelter, defensive equipments, storage, cafe and kitchen. The people who originally lived there were employees of the Hudson Bay Company (HBC). The employees married the local aboriginal women and made better relationships with the aboriginals. In 1858 the people in Fort Langley found gold in the Fraser river, but they were afraid of letting the Americans to know or else they would come and take the gold. They soon created the colony of British Columbia to stop the Americans from coming. In 1866, British Columbia became part of Canada. Everything that we see in BC right now, started from that little area where it does not even add up to 1km square.

I did a total of an hour and half of jump shots. No catching rebounds, no running, no lay ups, just jump shots. I stood on one spot which I wanted to be good at shooting at. I suggested that my friends should pick up the basketball and pass them to me which they all said in union. I stood on the spot, waited for them to pass me the ball. Once I recieved the ball, I launched myself into the air and flick the ball off my middle finger. It was not hard. As soon as I landed, I received another ball and jumped again without hesitation. That never got old. I repeated the same movement for over a hundred times before I ran out of stamina. I got a averege of 3 out of 10. It was not a very pleasent mark for me. I just need more practice. That helped me to build up my arm muscle and make them stronger, also raised my stamina level. I had to push myself to the limit every time before putting my ass on the grass and take a rest.

Huy came over again today. We played the two games that he brought. I wished that I still had NBA2K13 with me. It was more fun than any other games. We played Assassin's Creed on my computer later on, but that was not as fun as NBA2K13 though. It was a bit boring if I may say. I am quite bored in the past few days. It is raining and the floor is wet, so I cannot play basketball. I want to play with cousin Jason who I have not seen in a long time, but my parents just tells me to read, read and read. It is all I do. Nothing else but study, practice, eat, sleep and go to the bathroom. I am turning into a person that hates spring break and long breaks now. I want to go to school and hang out with my friends. It will be much better than this shit routine that I have to follow everyday. At school I can play with my friends, do some stuff that is more productive. The good thing is that after 5 more days, I will go back to school.

Sony movies does have a lot of its stuff in it. I watched this of video of what was wrong with The Amazing Spiderman 2. There were about 240 things that was wrong with that movie. At the end, it showed us how many Sony stuff there were in that movie. Every single TV, Camera and most of the phones in that movie were made by Sony. There were even 8 Sony company credits at the end of the movie. That was bullshit. That guy that pointed out all the mistakes must be a guy who was bored and had nothing to do other than watching the movies and trying to find the damn mistakes or weird stuff about it. Who the hell would do that?  I am planning on going to the movies with my friends, watching Insurgent, one of the newest and most popular movies. I am half way through the book currently but I think that I need to know the difference between the movie and the book. 

I hate the weather here. It changes so often that I do not even know what to do.  This afternoon, I literally experienced one of the fastest weather changes. I went to my friend Huy's house to play basketball. When I first arrived the sky was blue, sun shines covered the neighbourbhood. We were just taking shots, until the sky changed in all the sudden and started to rain. At first it was okay, but turned intopouring rain later on, what we discribed as raining tacos, same thing as raining cats and dogs. The length of the change was only 30 seconds to 1 minute. We were forced to stay inside. That was just weird.  I hate how it changes so often, it is BULLSHIT!

I do not know why but there are so many people reading my blogger posts. I want to know why. Is it because my online journals are interesting or is it because I suck at Language Arts and people are reading it to make fun of me? I know that I posted my journal to the public, but I am not expecting so many people to read my blogger. Do not get me wrong, I am not complaining, I am just surprised. I still do want you guys to read my blogger if you can. If you are reading this blogger, please leave a message to tell me why you guys are reading this. Do you think that it is interesting? I am just curious and want to find out the answers.

My knees hurt a lot. Just like my grandmothers. How did I get it? Well, you see, I had been doing jump shots in the past few days, about 50 to 100 per day. Every time I land, my knees hurt. I had no idea how to get rid of it immediately. The only solution was sleep, so I had to wait until night to get rid of the pain. I found out another set of funny videos on YouTube. The best vines of Kingbach. He swore a lot, but that was not the point of the videos. The funny thing was how they used exaggeration to show the smallest details of our daily life. He fought for a charger with his friends. He said the N word a lot. He also showed how much he loved his Air Jordan shoes. He was a famous viner, those people who posts stuff on a social media called vine, a director, actor, writer, and producer. I loved his vine videos, also called vines. Click the link below to watch his vines. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5DQyn2S09I

I watched videos of this racist kid on Youtube. His name was Josh Kwondike. His jokes were funny but racist. He was making fun of asians, which he was one himself. He made up jokes about his parents getting mad when he get bad grades, asian eyes and saying mother asshole. One of my favorite joke of his was this: He pretended to be a mean, strict and unreasonable father. "Son, go and study." he said it in a weird asian voice. "NO, dad, I'm sick of it!" said himself from his perspective. "Okay, no study, after I shove these chopsticks up your mother asshole?" said the father while holding up a hand full of chopsticks. His jokes were awesome. Although some of them were racist, they spoke out for the children that were under the pressure that their parents gave them. It was one of the best video I found on Youtube. Here is the link to the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlNajQV_VOI

I had been reading a lot of books these days. I finished reading the book Divergent and wanted to read the next one in the series desperately. I read the second book in the series of The Last Thirteen. I read Halo the Forerunner Saga to the 70 or so page. I did this was because that I had nothing to do other than finishing up my daily work and go outside to practice basketball. Nothing else interests me. Traveling was not one of my favorite activity, taking lessons would make me stress out, and participate in community events? Just NO. What else could I do other than the ones above? Video game? Well, I normally does that at night. Reading was one thing that I came up with, so I spent hours and hours reading. Not that bad, but still unreasonably annoying. God I hate it when I do not know what to do.

I showed my mom how to play NBA2K13 on Wii U. We borrowed the disk from Richmond library.  At first, mom was not like other people, afraid of losing. She was excited, and when I tried to show her the controls, she just said "I will get it after a while." Our game was between the 1992 Dream team and 2003 Team USA. Lebron vs Magic Johnson, and Kobe vs Jordan. The game was intense. Mom did not understand that well though, so she always pressed random buttons and did about 7 full court shots when it was still in the middle of the game. I reached in for about 20 times, but there was no foul shots for the first 18 of them. Mom learned how to do foul shots and the basic controls of the game. I loved to switch the good players on, but she hated subsitution. I did not know why. Our game ended 70 to 28. I made Magic Johnson score 19 points and 16 for Jordan. It was fun. I wish that you were here so that we could play a three people game.

I played NBA2K13 with my friend Huy today. I checked out the game in Richmond library yesterday. We played two or three games. The first one, he used Miami heat, with James, Wade, Bosh, Chalmers, and Anderson. I used the legendary team, 1998 Bulls with Jordan, Pippen and some other players that I did not know. I had a stronger team, it was very obvious that I would win. In our second game, we played with the NBA 1993 dream team against the celebrity team. On the dream team we had Magic Johnson, Bird, Jordan, Pippen and Barkley. On the celebrity team they had Justin Bieber. Yes, Justin Bieber. He was the three point shooter on that team. My friend Huy and I laughed our head off on that. I also took a picture of the gameplay and posted it on Instagram. He had the rate number of 91. That was so hilarious. Turned out that the celebrity team was not so bad after all. NBA2K13 was fun, just like NBA2K14.

I want to sign up for the North Langley Basketball Association so that I can play on a team and get to know about basketball team play more. I am trying to sign up but the website says that I cannot sign up at this time of the year. It is so messed up! I want to join and play with my friends so badly but it just will not let me! What I do not like about the teams is that they mixed boys and girls up together as a team. It can be awkward. At the starting of the year, I went to Langley Event Center with my friends. We were practicing until the coach of a North Langley Basketball team asked us whether we wanted to play a game or not. We were versing one of the league teams. We had 10 or so points more than them, but it was to test out the skills of the team. Since then, I started to want to play on a basketball team.

How was your class going today? Were they having a hard time figuring out the program? Sorry that we did not go to Richmond today. My parents think that it would be unnecessary if we went to Richmond and I am not going to Robokids. I thought that we might visit once a month if I am not taking the class. I did quite a lot of stuff at home today. I read 50 pages of book. Did math the first thing in the morning. Went outside and played basketball for two hours, practicing my jump shots. Also, did some Chinese language art worksheets. That would be the basic routine for this spring break, boring stuff. I want to go and live with you for another weekend. Go to the KTV and sing at the top of my lungs. Spend most of my day visiting friends around that area. I will try to work it out with my parents, but I also need your permission.

School is over for now, because our spring break is coming. In the next two weeks, I will be bored for most of the time. Sitting on a chair, forced to read the god damn books, all because of my report card. My teacher suggests me to read more books, and my dad is pushing me so that I have to read for an hour to three everyday. It is so STUPID! I hate reading no matter what. Books, for me are just things that are used to light up a campfire or the stove. It is pretty useless, and meaningless. Why did the humanity create books before cameras? If camera was created first, then books would not even exist. We would only have something called INTERNET to keep us on tract of knowledge. I have to read for an hour now. HELP ME!

I am joining the North Langley Steve Nash Youth Basketball League's under 13 section. Most of my friends are in this section, so that means I will have a chance of being put on the same team with them. After I join the team, I have to go to the practices held by the team and games competing against other teams. My shots are getting better, especially my jump shots. With my better shooting skill and all my other abilities, I am hoping to land on a better team. It actually does not matter that much. What matters is my spirit and skills, not the surroundings that disturbs me. After the tournament, I had less practices. No more team practice, and I do not wake up early every morning and go to school because my parents said that I had to take the bus or the money that we paid for the bus would be wasted. Do you have time on Saturday? I want to go to Richmond and play basketball with you. Also, I am not going to Robokids or Scratch this week. Hanging out with a couple old friends ...

This article is going to be long. Yesterday, right after school. My teammates and I departed for our tournament which was held at Walnut Grove Secondary School, the largest school in the area, even bigger than ours. That school had 3 gyms, with different sizes. The games were held at the two smaller gyms and the largest gym was for the students to practice between games. The school was huge and dark. My sensei Thanasi and I explored through out one half of the school. It was huge, and ordinary. At first, all the teams gathered at the new gym, not the biggest one though. The teachers explained the rules and the games. By then, most of us were excited. Our first game was held in the smallest gym. The other team that we were versing first, was similar to 1998's Chicago Bulls. There was this kid, who had no hair, black colour skin and strong looking. The first time I saw him, I knew that he was the "Michael Jordan" of that team. I knew that I had to check him and I had ...

I spent my whole weekend believing that the french test would be tomorrow, but it actually was on Thursday. That was why I was so busy studying the french words, that I was so rushed and thought that I could not spend enough time on studying science which I had a test on today. I watched this video of how a human, tried to use his body language to tell another person how animals eat their food. I laughed my head off when I was watching it. The funny thing about the video was that the person that was pretending to be an animal, did a bad job at doing it, and the person that was watching in the video did not even laugh or smile until the end. It might not be funny to you, but it was for me. 

I watched another How it's made video. This one was about Tofu.  First, the workers put the soybean into a tank filled with water to soak them for 18 to 24 hours so that the soybeans would get bigger than it was before. After the soaking, they dumped the soybean into a crusher to srush them, before using a pressure machine to push the crushed soybean in to a tank through a wire net that keeps most of the soybean on top and sqeezes the water into the tank below. The tank then would start to spin and that would sperate most of the water and the crunches in the water. The left over crunches and soybeans would be transfered into pet food. The water then gets mixed with other materials to make it form its shape. Then, the workers heat up the mixed water and gets a mixed pile of tofu. They soon put the tofu into triangular containers and put pressure onto the container to form the tofu's shape. They cut the tofu into little pieces before sending them into a heater to heat them up ...

I was watching the process of how the food were made in factory, the videos that I showed you on Doc. I watched how the eggs were made, how wine, beer, cheese and bread were made. I was surprised, not by the food but by the factory automatic machines. The robotic arms, the automatic stirring systems, and the fast speed wrappers. All those comes to one word - technology. It was the thing that made all the process of making products easy. They did a lot of things for us and saved us a lot of time. In the factories, the machines did most of the work. Workers just had to do some add ups to fix some of the problems or does something that machines could not complete. In the future, will our world be completely filled with these robots? Will they take away the jobs of thousands?

I was busy during the past few days. My days were filled up with basketball practices, poems, science test reviews, social study quizs, french family words, and math games. These things kept me busy, but not taking my time away from practicing. In the past few days, I went to school by 7:00 a.m and practiced after school for 2 hours. I mainly practiced my shots, which I was getting better at. With practice, comes perfection.  My team now uses some NBA strategies. The Spurs' triangle passing strategy. We have three people standing on the three point lines, two at the side one at the front. Two more people inside the three point lines to stop others from blocking the passes and catch rebounds. The three just keep on passing the ball back and forth until one person is open and that person takes a lay up or a shot. This is a good strategy. We tried it out today and it worked. Go wolves!

I have a dream, that some day, I can do fade aways and dunk. This dream will take a lot of practices and hard work, but first, I need the mind of wanting to become what I want to become. People says that I suck at shooting, and that is what is pushing me forward. I will turn my weakness into my power, so that I can take my opponent surprising them with my power. The first step of this dream, is to believe. I watched a funny Jacky Chen movie last night, it was called Rush Hour 2. There were 3 movies in that series. It was so hilarious that the guys in the movie always does some stupid things or retarded actions. I suggest you to watch it. 

Sorry about the fact that I did not type anything yesterday. I could not because my computer was not working properly and would not turn on. I had to go to cadets last night too.  We just had another game today, and we won. I did not got any shots in but someone fouled my and I got 1 point. It was sad for me that I did not score any points. Our coach said we did great, which I think that we did. I think that I sucked at something called teamwork. I could not work on that because I could not find enough people that lives near me to practice that with me. The last game, or tournment would be on the 10th, next tuesday. Can you come and watch? I got promoted yesterday at cadets. I am no longer a cadet but a lance corporal. I do not know what I have to do so yeah. I guess that I will stay in the cadets for now.

I finally got rid of my running nose and my itchy throat. I am back to my old days, with no pain and no shame. I suffered from the cold, now I am going to make the cold suffer byu making it leave my body. I know it does not make any sense because I used personification and idiom. I hate having a cold. I played a one on one game today with my friends Zahir today after school. He was ahead of me because I let him took two open shots. The score was 6 to 4. I did not try hard enough, and I did not expect him to try hard either. He knew that I could take him easily because I had more strategies and more tricks than him. Although I might be bad at shooting, but I still used my tricks to fool him. I will finish the game up tomorrow.

Last night we went to the Chinese New Year festival that was held in a church in Surrey by our neighbour who lives right next to us and was the pope of that church. It was wonderful. There were a lot of people who wore the traditional Chinese clothes and shoes. There were a lot of Chinese lanterns and decorations which made me feel like that I was in China. The food were fantastic. I loved the cold noodle with some spices, and the mango jelly cake. There were at least 15 shows after the eating period. We only watched the first 8 shows before we left and went home. Although the church was small, but the spirit made it seem big. Everyone was thankful, was grateful and happy. I wish that you could be here so that we could celebrate the season with you.

When we were on our way yesterday morning, I saw something really shocking that I never noticed before. Every car on that road, no matter there were road construction or accidents, the cars kept moving. I thought of China's highway traffic and compared it to ours, it was just bullshit. In China, if there was an accident, you would probably have to wait for at least an hour, but that never happened in Canada. Everyone kept moving, no one tried to get in front of one another. No car tried to take shortcuts, no body yelled at one another for not moving. Just no. Why did that happen in Canada but not in China? I was curious. What made the Canadians while stopped the Chinese from doing it?
