"hot" in tagalog = mainit

Props to my homie AG for showin me this video. He was able to interview these folks while interning for Mtv Philippines. Apparently the hip-hop scene over there isn't too big right now. These folks are trying to make a name for themselves and the hip-hop culture in the Philippines. Not gonna lie. When he first told me about it, I didn't think it was going to be anything to crazy. I'm so used to watching Wowowee, and all the other shows on TFC at my aunt and uncles house. The dancing they have on that channel is what I like to say... corny?? I'm not sure if thats the right word, but lets just say i've seen better dancing, rapping, etc. This group of people definitely shut me up. I've got high hopes for these people and everyone else in this movement going on in the Philippine Islands.



Peace easy!!

anyway...

A friend of mine, Eileen, posted this earlier. Nice motivation...

"...people are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered;
forgive them anyway.

if you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
be kind anyway.

if you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies;
succeed anyway.

if you are honest and sincere people may deceive you;
be honest and sincere anyway.

what you spend years creating others could destroy overnight;
create anyway.

if you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous;
be happy anyway.

the good you do today, will often be forgotten.
do good anyway.

give the best you have, and it may never be enough;
give your best anyway.

in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
it was never between you and them anyway.
"

Pound for Pound



It's the calm before the storm right now. For the past few weeks or so, I've been really keeping myself informed about the fight and all aspects of it. Constantly reading mannypacquiao.ph and other sites concerning this day. I've found myself getting pumped for the fight after seeing anything that may remind me of it. Clips on TV of either fighter, over hearing people conversing about it, etc have me walking around the house shadow boxing. I can't wait... There are very few things in life that I'm sure of. Pacquiao winning this fight is one of them. There is nothing in my mind that would make me think otherwise. The utter confidence I have in him is ridiculous. Hatton is a good fighter. He trains well, but he can't beat Manny.

Here we go...
