An Air Jordan XXI shoe commercial featuring the next generation's takes
on Michael's greatest moves and poses. An excellent tribute to how
great an actual player he was.
I wish I watched him when I was little, but I only started paying
attention to basketball two years before his first comeback. He was
something to see though.

| So I've had a number of friends telling me that I should post an
article on what I look for in a girl so I finally decided to write up
something. It's not easy thinking of the top five things that I
want in a girl because I can think of TONS of things. This list
actually took me a while to finalize. How did I make this list?
Well at first I was just thinking of all the things that I liked in a
girl, but that didn't work too well because I would then think of girls
that I liked that didn't have the characteristics. So then I
started thinking of all the girls I've met so far and what I liked
about them. That wasn't easy because I had to really think
back. It was a slow process but it did get me to narrow the
original list. Does this mean that I won't date anyone until I
find a girl with all these traits? No. Chemistry is important and just
because a girl has everything on the list doesn't mean we'll have good
chemistry together. Perhaps, I'll post another article someday on
the top five things I look for in a relationship. 5. Ambitious - A
girl who has great desire or motivation in her life is like a
never-ending story. In my experience, usually something has happened to
them that made them ambitious. When they talk, their energy just pulls
me in, like a magnet pulling on a metal object. They never run out of
things to talk about and I never get tired of listening to them.
4. Idea of fun doesn't always involve money - A
girl who loves to do things that doesn't ALWAYS involve money is a joy
to me. It's not really because of the money; far from it really. It's
just their attitude and what they think of as fun - that's the
difference. If a girl only thinks about spending money as fun, then
that's ALL she thinks of as fun. Seriously. Walking around the park and
just sit and chat, or go flying a kite, or bicycling, or cooking
together will seem "boring." It's that attitude of just sticking to
traditional ways of having fun (movies, shopping, etc) really turns me
off. I mean there's so MANY things to do if you add in the
non-traditional ways of having fun. There's only so much you can do
with money (ex. shopping, movies, eating, etc) before it starts
becoming repetitive. Of course, if I was a millionaire, then that might
not apply here. But I'm not a millionaire. Once you've done everything
that costs money, then you start thinking well... what can we do today?
A girl that loves to do anything and everything and TRIES to have fun
doing it is just wow.
3. Sense of humor - I
love a girl who loves to laugh and smile. I'm a cheerful guy and I like
a girl whose always cheerful too. It's such a dull experience when I
hang out with a girl who doesn't smile or rarely laughs. I don't know
what to say and I don't know how to act. I am really uncomfortable when
I hang out with girls who are like this. Of course, if a girl happens
to have a bad day and such, that's understandable. A girl who has a
sense of humor will always make my day brighter.
2. Confident but modest - I
gotta admit, a girl with confidence in herself is a BIG turn on. I love
it when a girl is confident about herself and isn't easily swayed by
others. A girl whose not afraid to talk in public, not afraid to be
recognized, not afraid to voice her opinions but at the same time
remain modest is truly unique. These girls knowingly and unknowingly
attract attention and their presence is well known when they enter a
room. It's something that a boyfriend can proudly say, "Yes, she's my
girlfriend." Again, modesty must complement this confidence or else I
cannot stand confident and self centered girls.
1. Capable of taking care of herself - I'm
not one of those guys that want to feel all mighty powerful and be in
control of my girl. No, I dont' want a girl who can't take care
of things herself. That is probably the biggest turn-off when the
girl must always come to me to take care of stuff. I dont' mean that I
don't want a girl to come talk to me if she has problems. It's always
nice to have someone to talk to. That is one great thing about a
friendship or relationship. But what I'm talking about is when she
can't take care of herself. She can't be independent and must always
depend on someone else to finish the task.. This characteristic is a
must have in a bf/gf relationship. Without it, I will just get more and
more frustrated over time.

| So
I'm in my IDS110 class and an interesting topic was brought up,
something which I never thought about before although totally capable
of happening. With the rise of various uses of MP3's such as music and
most notably the recent popularity of podcast, is it safe to assume
that perhaps audio email will soon become popular and inevitably
replace written emails? The thought of recording what you have to say
rather than writing it all out seems really intriguing to me. The
other day, I received an email from my professor, but it wasn't just
any email. Although he did write words in the email, he also recorded
himself and attached it to the email. For me, this was the first time I
received an audio email from someone and actually... I liked it! I
liked the fact that I didn't have to read the LONG email which I would
of had to do if he didn't record himself. I liked the fact that I could
just sit back and listen and concentrate on what he was trying to say
instead of concentrating on what I was trying to read. It was a total
new and exciting experience for me. Isn't it much easier to just record yourself and say what is on your mind rather than typing it all out?
I know a lot of people, me for example, are just too lazy to write out
everything that is on their mind. It's just so much trouble to type it
all out! While some people can type faster than they can talk, most
people can talk faster than they can type. Isn't it much easier to express your thoughts and emotions rather than writing and finding the right words?
Most people agree that one bad thing about written chat is that it can
often lead to misunderstanding. This is usually the result of different
interpretations of what is written. Doesn't listening to the person's voice create this feeling of embodiment? Isn't it safe to say that listening to someone's voice feels more personal than reading a written chat or email? Of
course, I don't think this method will quickly catch on because changes
to tradition usually happen slowly. Also, it is quite troublesome to
record yourself and send it by email - only people who loves computers
and technology would take the extra effort to find the audio recording
software, record themselves, open email program, attach, and send. For
everyday users who want simplicity, its just too much work. But perhaps
one day it'll become easy and widespread enough that it's just one
click, record, and automatically send to the recipient. Comments? Thoughts? Leave it here.
