Sitting in the house bored as hell, tired of looking outside seeing the rain, the wind and the torture of being indoors in which Hurricane Irene has left upon us all here in New York.  What is the to do?  how do I keep from being bored?  I want to go outside but outside aint to stay for me.

I figured I would take to my blog and chit-chat and write.  Just start a new post and start writing until I feel a bit better.  Then I thought about couple of facts and entertainment values I can be doing, well since I still have power in my house.   Here are a few things I could be doing and shall be doing right after writing this post.

1. Watch videos on YouTube or WorldStarHipHop
2. Listen to Lil Wayne’s leaked “The Carter IV” album
3. Play some video games on my Xbox 360 or PS3
4. Watch some kill ass movies on Netflix or Hulu Plus
5. Find a peace corner and grab a book to read or hop on my Kindle and catch up on some reading
6. Lastly, take my butt to sleep.

Well I have quite a few more creative options I could do but for now, those I have listed are simple easy and pretty much should be entertaining.

What are you doing or did during the hurricane?  Do you get bored easily?

Did you feel it? The East Coast EARTHQUAKE…

Ummm what was I doing when the earthquake hit August 23, 2011?  I was in New York in my apartment watching Netflix on my PS3 while writing on my notebook in rocking back and forth in my so awesome chair and rocking my desk also.  Then all of a sudden everything started to shake harder and I thought wow did I do that? (steve urkel voice) and I started to brace the furniture to stop the shaking and it didn’t stop, I was like nah, it can’t be an earthquake.  I went straight to twitter on my phone (Twitter is REAL TIME news by the people if you didn’t know) and other’s were saying wow its an earthquake.  That’s all I needed as confirmation to be like dang, that was an earthquake what such madness.  Then a peeped outside as everyone gathers to gossip the earthquake, as I leaned back deep in my chair and continued to watch Netflix in attempts to fall asleep.

Facts:  It was an earthquake from VA that somehow stun and shook the whole East Coast almost.

So did you feel it?  What do you think this mean? What were you doing when it happened?

My 2011 Birthday Wish List – Part 2 – Be Awesome and Get Me These!!!

Every year is another birthday.  Each year I claim I don’t want anything major, but c’mon who am I really kidding?  I got tons of stuff I want.  Some people might not know the exact reasons for it, but shoot, I do.  Here is my 2011 Wish List.

If you missed Part 1, here it is….
My 2011 Birthday Wish List – What Are You Going To Get Me?

Ok, we are back at it on great birthday gifts for me.  Let’s see what 5 others we can come up with hmmm.

Boxing Glove Wraps
Boxing Glove Wraps

6. Boxing Gloves Warps ($20-$30)
I need these so badly.  I can’t believe I went 4 years wanting them and not buy them…they are only $20.  Damn I am cheap.  I can buy a $1,000 camera in a flash but not a $20 glove, smh.  I like boxing at the gym.  It’s fun, and lots of stress I release there.

amazon-kindle
amazon-kindle

7. Amazon Kindle ($114-$169)
I been really getting into the mood of reading more, seeing that I watched a million tv shows and movies via Netflix.  So it’s time to get back to the books.  My friends were all telling me no don’t get the Kindle, get a tablet, but I felt especially knowing me, if I had a tablet I will not be reading books on it, I would be doing a million and one things as if it was my computer.  I simply just want a book, and a kindle is that (e-book reader either way).

ciroc-red-berry-vodka
ciroc-red-berry-vodka

8. Ciroc (Red Berry) ($24.99) | Long Island Ice Tea ($9.99) | Barefoot Reisling ($9.99)
I am not a big drinker, then again a lot of people would say against that, but I do like certain drink bases on the taste and ease of flow with certain foods I eat.  Buy my a drink today, so I can be smooth and relaxed on the weekend.  I love wine as my number one choice but if vodka (ciroc red berry), cognac (conjure), wine (reisling), everything (long island ice tea)

Snapback Fitted Cap
Snapback Fitted Cap

9. Snap back Fitted Cap ($30+) Green or Red
I want one of these.  I mean I usually don’t follow the fad going around, and I am not much of a hat wearer seeing I mostly always have low-cut hair cuts or bald, I still loves hats. especially ones that are cool.  I don’t one that’s really a basketball or baseball team hat, but a hat with one of my favorite colors (green, red or so) pretty much standing out would be so awesome to have as a snap back.  I want to get like a DC or Etnies hat.  I would settle for anything creative and awesome.

Need For Speed Shift 2 Unleashed
Need For Speed Shift 2 Unleashed

10. Need For Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed – PS3 ($40-$65)
Boy oh boy how I missed out on this game.  Probably the first Need For Speed game that came out that I didn’t buy on the spot.  I mean it was too close to the last need for speed release which was Hot Pursuit in November 2010, but I love to drive out of anything else in this game, it’s sad to see it not yet in my collection, since I collect ALL NEED FOR SPEED games.

hello kitty ninja tattoo
hello kitty ninja tattoo

Bonus 1. NEW TATTOO ($50-$80)
I been meaning on getting another tattoo, but kept saying no no no.  But I feel the one I wanted next would be really worth it…Donate to the cause to make me happy with another tat. 🙂

justin timberlake cologne Givenchy
justin timberlake cologne Givenchy

Bonus 2. Diddy’s I Am King cologne or Justin Timberlake‘s Givenchy colonge ($53-$83)
If any two colons I love the smell for it’s Diddy’s “I Am King” cologne and the just recently discovered Justin Timberlake cologne “Givenchy”…in which I got schooled on how its pronounced by (@BelleMarie86 over at My Boring Quarter-Life Crisis) after a stroll in Sephora.  But I really like these and will be inching to get me a bottle soon, if not both, I will get one or maybe you should get me one. lol.

Ok that’s all I got to list…there could be more, but that would means I am greedy (in which ain’t bad, shoot it only my BIRTHDAY right?).

As before, I have a particular taste, and I like things that are personal not flashy or too expensive.  I am a simple guy.

What are you planning on getting me birthday this year?  Do you already have anything I listed?  Do you want some of the same things I want?

Let me know…let’s talk about it.
