woke up this morning with the sun beating down through the window...i think it's going to be a good day. it's been pretty gloomy and cold up here. seeing sunshine really changed the mood. hope it's here to stay. don't mind the coldness but the sun needs to stay.

so this morning i dropped off dee at MD (that rhymes) so that she could begin her morning at school early. while i was driving, dee started her daily routine of beautifying her face. the funny thing is, she for some reason was fixated on ONE eyebrow. supposedly it was messed up. i couldn't really tell, but you know being the good boyfriend of 4 years i've learned to say "naw...you LOOK GOOD!" pretty good eh? anyway, for like 5 minutes she was like "david, it hella looks messed up!!!" and i was like dude it's a freaking eyebrow "you wanna call in sick?" haha...does that sound like dee? haha...sounds like it to me. love her anyway!

here's a quick update...

got into a car accident last tuesday. car is totalled. no more civic. waiting for the insurance company to tell me how much they gonna give me for my car. DAMN! pretty messed up. wasn't planning to buy a new car until summer time, but i guess this is going to be speeding up the process. 2007 tundra or 2007 tacoma? still unsure. definitely staying away from the rice rockets. haha.

MD Varsity Boy's basketball team lost in the semi-final game. it's all good. it was a good season nonetheless! overall record 11-5. that includes one championship, 2nd place in another tournament, and a playoff spot during league play. can't ask for anything more from a team that has only won 1 game in their last 4 years. i'd say that's NOT BAD!

dee and her family are preparing for their 2007 Philippines trip! Pray for them, pray for their safety and pray that their presence in the Philippines brings hope and joy to their family and friends!

Peace my brothers and sisters! Miss you all!

This Saturday March 10, 2007 the Mater Dolorosa 8th Grade Boy's Varsity basketball team is going to be playing in their very first league semifinal playoff game. I'm really proud of these kids. When we began in November of last year it was difficult to even determine whether or not we could even win one game. Before I started coaching at MD the boys only won 1 game over the past 4 years! Can you believe that...and from the time we all got together till this day, the Royals have won 11 games and have only 4 losses. They were champions in a holiday tournament, came in second place in another holiday tournament and is currently 4-3 in league. So I would say these kids came a LONG WAY and are still not done. These kids have a lot of heart and are finally figuring out what basketball is all about, what it means to play with respect and class and to have other teams feel threatened when they enter the gym for game time. They are no longer the team that everyone makes fun of and blows out, but they are the team to beat!!! I only pray that they are ready to play this Saturday and hopefully this Sunday for the North Division Championship! Pray for us. Wish you all were here to see these kids in action.
