COD 4 Stats Update

by Edwin on February 27, 2008

in Hobbies

If you remember I wrote about my Call Of Duty 4 stats back in January, you can read it here. More than a month has gone by now so it’s time for an update. Check the picture below to check my stats as of 2/26/08. I still don’t think that I am addicted to the game, I wrote a post about that subject and you can read it here, I play maybe a couple of hours a day and on occasions I do play a lot but not that often. My favorite game is Domination, we basically have 2 teams of six each fighting over 3 flags. The more flags you control and the longer you protect them the more points your team gets until you reach the point limit. I like playing specially against teams just because some of them think they are so good and some really are. I think playing against good players makes you better. I can honestly say that I am not the best player, I am just an ok player.

So Many Raindrops

by Edwin on February 25, 2008

in Weekend Recap

The weekend is over and so is the rain according to the weatherman. This week is supposed to be nice and sunny and that is the way I like it. The weekend was ok, nothing special just a nice relaxing weekend. Saturday I was going to go practice for the basketball tournament but didn’t due to the rain. So I stayed home, watched TV and played COD 4 all night Saturday into Sunday, speaking of COD 4 I should write a post with and update of my stats soon. I finally stopped playing at about noon because I was a bit tired. Took a shower, got some food and then took a nap because I really needed it. After a two and half hour nap I got up and checked what was on TV, nothing caught my eye so I relaxed the rest of the day and ended up going to bed real early, 10:30 PM.

Tournament Canceled!!

by Edwin on February 22, 2008

in What?!!

It has been a rainy week here in L.A. and as a result the basketball tournament I was going to play in this Saturday has been canceled for at least two weeks. And here I was ready to wow the ladies with my jumping ability, my high scoring and my dunks. Ok, ok, I am exaggerating  quite a bit…………………fine, I am exaggerating 100%. The way I see it, it is a blessing in disguise because now I have a couple of weeks to practice that way I won’t quit one minute into the game. It is about having fun after all and I want to play as much as I can in a championship team but that is another story.

Up All Night, Sleep All Day

by Edwin on February 19, 2008

in Weekend Recap

I have just said goodbye to the three day weekend and that makes me sad. I wish that every weekend was a three day weekend but sadly some wishes never come true. The weekend was great, the weather was even better for a change, sunny and so warm. I didn’t do that much to be honest; let me see I didn’t sleep at all Friday night because I was up all night playing Call Of Duty 4 so Saturday night I went to bed at 10:30 PM because I was so tired that my eyes were hurting. Next thing I know it’s 2AM and I am feeling so relaxed and energized. So I ended up getting up watching some TV and playing some more. I went back to bed at about 7 am I think it was and did not get up until about 2 PM. I was going to go play basketball to practice for the coming tournament this coming Saturday but I didn’t.

Sunday was another one of those days, I watched about 4 hours of backed up shows that I had not watched and finished until about 9 PM I think it was. As soon as I was done with that I checked my mail and then played COD 4 again all night.

I didn’t get any sleep on Monday at all but I did do my laundry and ended up going to bed early because as we all know Tuesday is back to work day and I don’t want to show up all tired. And that is how I spent my three day weekend, I am already waiting for the next one.

I Hate being Sick

by Edwin on February 14, 2008

I felt it coming two days ago so I immediately went and bought some medicine to counterstrike. The aches, the sneezing and of course lets not forget that runny nose. Don’t you just hate being sick as much as I do, you are not yourself and that is why as soon as I feel it coming I start taking medicine and that is exactly what I did, talk to you soon.

I Need An Eye Exam

by Edwin on February 13, 2008

in Just Stuff

Here I go again being lazy, I know for a fact that I need an eye exam and ask me if I have scheduled one yet, the answer is no. I have health insurance but I don’t seem to want to use it. All I have to do is pick up the phone, call the number and I’d be done with it but I guess that is just too hard for me. When I do finally go to see the eye doctor I know that I am going to get a new prescription and that means new glasses. The ones I have now are oval shaped by Adidas that I got a while back which I happen to like a lot.

But while doing some research for new frames I went to the Ray-Ban website and sure enough I found what I was looking for. I could not find pictures to show you but you can visit the site, click on collections and then on optical and then look for models RB 6128 and RB 6124. I am going to keep looking but if I don’t find something I like then it’s going to be hard choosing just one of the Ray Ban models. 

First thing is first, I have to call and make an appointment and then go looking for my Ray Bans, right?.

Sunny Weekend

by Edwin on February 11, 2008

in Weekend Recap

This weekend was such a nice one, the weather was great and my bed was even better. I went to bed Saturday at about noon I think it was and woke up at about 4 PM. I got some food and then watched TV for a while. I was feeling so tired that I ended up going to bed early, 10 PM. Next thing I know I wake up at about 2 AM in the morning feeling so refreshed and ready for whatever came my way, I guess that going to bed early really helped. So I turned on the TV but there was nothing good on so I did the next best thing, play some COD 4. It was around 6 AM when I finally went back to bed thinking that I was going to get up at at least 10 AM to go play basketball but it was 2PM when I finally woke up so there again went my plans. I got some food then watched TV, got a strawberry milkshake and then played some more. I ended going to bed at about 3AM.

And today it’s Monday and I have to go back to work, talk to you soon.

USA vs Mexico

I am a soccer fan and have been ever since I can remember. My favorite MLS team happens to be the 4 time champion D.C. United, we almost had number five last season but I don’t want to talk about it. Anyway, today there is a game that has become a classic in the CONCACAF region, if you don’t understand what that is think of it as a conference such as the Pac 10, the Big 10 and so on. Every region of the planet has their own, such as Europe, Asia and Africa. Well today They play again in Texas, check your local listings for time. The U.S. in unbeaten in the last nine games with at 8-1 record needless to say it will be a good game and you can bet I’ll be watching.

Cold Weekend

by Edwin on February 4, 2008

in Weekend Recap

It was a cold and rainy weekend here in L.A. and as usual it kept me from doing everything I wanted to do which wasn’t that much to begin with. Let me see on Saturday I went to bed at about noon I think it was because I was playing Call Of Duty 4, I almost got my kills and deaths ration to 1 and 1, almost. I woke up at about 6 PM I think and played some more. When I finally got around to checking my mail it was about 9 PM . I watched TV while at the same time I was freeing up disk space and defragmenting Sunshine. When that was done I did complete virus scan and to my surprise I found something, more on that in a coming post. Finished with the virus scan, played for a few more hours and ended up going to bed at about 4 AM. Sunday I got up late, which isn’t new for me as you know, at about 3:30 PM and played some more. I stopped playing and watched the second half of the Superbowl, when that was said and done I got online to check mail and work on posts. Went to bed late and then was resigned to the simple fact that I had to go back to work, yep/

I Just Got to Have It

by Edwin on February 1, 2008

in Just Stuff

Something funny happened to me yesterday. I went to work and got started as I usually do but I was working in slow motion for some reason. So there I am wondering if I was coming down with something or if I just needed another vacation. I then go for a break and go to the vending machines and check if there is anything, I checked but nothing caught my eye so I moved on to the coffee machine and got a cup for $1 dollar. I am waiting there and that smell we are all familiar with starts to hit me. I then took a sip and suddenly I was in heaven, sort of. I quickly finished my cup and got back to work and then I finally remember. I didn’t have my usual first cup of coffee and that is why I was feeling so lethargic and out of it. Yes, I have to admit it I like coffee and if that means that I am addicted well they can skip the trial and take me directly to jail because I am guilty as sin. I think I need another cup right now.
