You're a 90's kid if:

You've ever ended a sentence with the word "PSYCHE!"

You can sing the rap to "The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air"

You remember when Kurt Cobain, Tu Pac, River Phoenix, and Selena died.

You know that "WOAH" comes from Joey from "Blossom" and that "How Rude!" comes from Stephanie from "Full House"

We are the wind of change coming
We take a stand where so many never go
We will shout it out to let you know

We want an answer to the questions
We want to knock down all the walls they built for you
We want to know the truth not be lied to

We want to know the face of freedom
We want to make a place where we can learn to love
Build a world that we can be proud of

Cause we just want to dance all night
Live inside the spark of life
This might be the only time around

For those who are texting me, thanks...
The warning was issued this morning, we still have power...wich is a good sign. The weather changed completely this morning...it's cloudy and very windy.

Let's hope for the best...

Here's the official report:

Felix Moving Away From The Windward Islands And Strengthening...

At 8 AM AST the tropical storm warning for Grenada is discontinued. A tropical storm warning remains in effect for the islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao. A tropical storm warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected within the warning area within the next 24 hours. A tropical storm watch remains in effect for the northern coast of Venezuela from Cumana to Pedernales including the island of margarita. A tropical storm watch means that tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch area...generally within 36 hours. Interests elsewhere in the eastern and central Caribbean Sea should closely monitor the progress of this system. For storm information specific to your area...including possible inland watches and warnings...please monitor products issued by your local weather office.

At 1100 AM AST the center of Tropical Storm Felix was located near latitude 12.3 north...longitude 63.6 west or about 455 miles...730 km...south-southeast of San Juan Puerto Rico and about 600 miles...965 km...southeast of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. Felix is moving toward the west near 18 mph...30 km/hr...and this general motion is expected to continue during the next 24 hours. On this track...Felix will be passing near or to the north of the islands of Aruba...Bonaire and Curacao late tonight or early Sunday morning. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 65 mph...100 km/hr...with higher gusts. Felix could become a hurricane on Sunday. Tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 45 miles...75 km from the center. The minimum central pressure reported by an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter plane was 1001 mb...29.56 inches. Additional rainfall accumulations of 1 to 2 inches are expected across the southern windward islands with storm total amounts of 7 inches possible. Rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches are possible over the offshore islands of Venezuela and the Netherlands Antilles islands of Arbua, Bonaire, and Curacao.

Hurricane Dean intensifies in Caribbean; upgraded to category '4'

Hurricane Dean intensified late Friday, packing fearsome winds of up to 215 kilometers (135 miles) per hour, as it blasted across the Caribbean toward Jamaica, the US National Hurricane Center said.

The storm center was 1,290 kilometers (800 miles) southeast of Kingston, Jamaica, and 410 kilometers (250 miles) south of Puerto Rico, the Miami-based monitor (NHC) said in a bulletin at 0000 GMT.

"The bottom line is that Dean is expected to be a dangerous hurricane through the next several days," said the NHC.

Dean earlier left flooding and devastation in parts of the Caribbean, including the island of Martinique.

The massive storm plowed through the eastern Caribbean on a direct course for Jamaica and the tourist-heavy tip of the Yucatan peninsula after battering the Lesser Antilles before dawn Friday with heavy rains and winds gusting over 170 kilometers (105 miles) per hour, according to reports from Martinique.

Things are looking good for the A's. Took 2 wins from the Angels and hopefully tomorrow we will win too...
Awesome game today, it's so gooooooooooooood to see the Angels lose.
Tomorrow FSN bay area is transmitting the game, that's a PLUS for us.

We needed those wins to get over the loss of Eric Chavez.
Games are not the same without him :(

P.S: My mobile phone is off for the weekend, ordered a new one that will come on Monday inshallah.

No TEXT MESSAGES :(

OAKLAND -- Anyone who follows the A's close enough knows that Nick Swisher is an energetic, charismatic and likeable fellow, and on Saturday, more people will have an opportunity to find that out.
Saturday's edition of "This Week in Baseball" focuses on the Oakland A's, especially Swisher.

TWIB will show the new, young nucleus of the A's -- a team that has gone through a lot of change over the years -- and Swisher is the engine that makes the show go.

Not only is Swisher wearing a microphone during a game, but he gave the TWIB crew a ride to the ballpark, which also gives the audience more of a chance to know the young outfielder/first baseman in Oakland.

"This Week in Baseball" will air on FOX at noon PT (times vary, so check your local listings).

We were behind by 8 runs and I wasn’t feeling the game anymore. Then an angel came from heaven. Richie came out in the 8th inning and looooooooooooking good as always.
Rich is like a breath of fresh air…He made my day 
I love Canada man, hahahaha

He looked very strong and his arms were bigger then ever. Even the Mets announcers were talking about his unique body. I think he added some pounds and didn’t shave for a whole week…Loving that!!!!

I know that some of you didn’t watch the game because it wasn’t aired in the bay area, so this bulletin is dedicated to my friends. Also this bulletin is dedicated to Ana...Your husband was looking good tonight, don't over work him at night...we need this guy to be healthy!!!

Let’s hope he will stay healthy and be again our number 1 starter!!!

Ok…I’m gonna start.
I always had an obsession for male dancers. After my rehab, I came across 6 sexy dancers in Rihanna's new video clip. I think I’m bringing the youtube server down by watching it over and over…

In the end of the video clip 6 male dancers come all dressed in black (black is hella sexy), with great dance moves and they get all wet.
Getting the picture girls?

Please watch the end of the video, wait and I promise it’s worth it!!!!

Muahhh

Finally summer break is here. Had a busy day full of interviews and presentations, had to be elegant, friendly, sharp, smart and ready for every question but hopefully I will get my first degree of teaching this year. My teacher told me that things are looking good for me and I’m happy. I will be the first one in my class to get the first degree in teaching in my first year…

Now I’m looking forward for a summer job and hopefully I will get one soon…

Anyways, to my point…Kendall went deep today with a homer?
Whoa……..let’s hope he will make it habit!!!!

We scored in the 8th inning?
A’s are looking good and Swisher needs to grow his hair back…Someone take the scissor from him please!!!!

Ok…I’m back to my journal…I missed you a lot guys.

P.s: I may leave my space again becuase to many weird people adding me again. I shouldn't have re-open it in the first place....
We will see...I will try to have more patience this time or change the settings of my requests...

Battle of the bay recap (from a female point of view)

The A’s swept San Francisco in a 3 games series. Barry Zito was looooooking good but with the SF uniform he lost some of his charm. Danny Haren looked much better with the A’s uniform and hairy face. Travis was hot the whole weekend and the female fans really enjoyed this Cali guy. Nick Swisher needs to grow his hair back to me happy again. Eric Chavez needs to stop tanning a little, or is this his natural color?

Here are some pictures from the weekend

BTW, thanks Ana for a wonderful morning full of pictures that made me smile and wonder why in the hell Danny is married :(
