March Madness

It is Sunday afternoon and I am watching NCAA basketball game between Georgetown and UNC.I was really impressed with Florida game against Oregon. As much as I am a Gator hater, I must admit that Noah and Brewer have a great chemistry in the court. I saw them play Arkansas in the SEC championship here in Atlanta. All I got say is if you can’t beat them you might as well join them. As Georgia bulldog alumni, I should swallow my Red &Black pride only for this weekend.My beloved Georgia team requires a tremendous rebuilding job. Florida would be playing UCLA next Saturday in Atlanta. I am trying hard to get hold of the final four tickets. Of course, for free. I need to call my connections and see if he can find me a ticket. He did it during the SEC championship here in Atlanta so I doubt why he'd not do it on the final four.

Florida has every right to be in Atlanta on Saturday for the final four. I know Gators have tons of haters out there, but I think being a little critical on the team would not mean as a Hatetorode(is that a word? Lol). As you might know that Florida hasn’t played a consistent game this season. They were not dominant in today game.Matter of fact they missed about seven free throws.

PS The weather is beautiful outside. This is why it is called Hotlanta!

Hawks Game




















Last night I had a great time attending the Atlanta Hawks playing Sacramento Kings in Philips Arena. My Palestinian friend(one of the coolest Arab guy I ever got to meet) scored some Executive section seats for me and my other former college buddies. You might think for a minute that we were major ballers seating in a high-class seat. There were champagne and alcohol flying around us (too, bad no one of my friend’s drink). We had to pass that one to the people seating next to us. But boy did we devoured the hot wings and the burger table. We had the best treatment you could ever get for a free ticket.

In the suite, they served as drinks and deserts .This is one of the great things about living in a city where your basketball team sucks. Even though Hawks are struggling to make it to the playoff (always has been) I personally think they did a great job in beating the Sacramento Kings last night. This is there straight fifth win in their hometown . I thought I should share with you what wonderful night I had in the game. I don’t remember the last time my friends and I got together to watch a Live basketball game together. I think the last time we did this was the year before last year when our college was playing a Kentucky at the SEC conference.

New Caashaq?

The word relationship has been an alien word in my life for quite sometime. I have avoided and made every effort to make myself busy with my life, but unfortunately we, as humans do need relationships with opposite sex for our happiness and emotional well-being (Ha?). For quite awhile, I have made the decision of staying single until I was happy with where I was with my life. No, am still not happy with my life. Matter of fact I think ambition is killing me every time I wanted to make a move to a woman. I think such self-indulgence (of making yourself happy) is fraudulent. There were times I felt inadequate, especially when it came to commitments.

I liked to muddled this by myself, but My friends never shirked from bagging me to find a flame. I have pondered on this obvious truth about my life and I have lately started to look around and see if there was a still a fish on the pond. Although I blanched at the very thought of putting myself out there, I knew that when the time is right, good things do happen to good people. We all do want the wet kiss on our cheek. This pregnant alienation had to stop somewhere, right?

I have met beautiful women whom I got interested. Some even startled the fear out of my mind. Nevertheless, no one really caught my attention like the new girl in my life. I met her a few months ago. She was absolutely stunning and radiating with the glow of Somali beauty. She has everything I ever wanted in a woman. We all want the best of what has been left, right? She and I like pretty much everything the same except some few exceptions of likes and dislikes. I have made every move to make her see the great person I am.

At this time everyone is still at the giggling stage of getting-to-know each other phase. I hope after being away from the game for quite sometime I still do have what it takes to make this woman see every side of my life. I promised her to be honest in everything that I do. I expect the same from her since we both want to be content with our choices. I just can’t stop thinking of holding hands with this woman in the warm sand of Georgia beaches.Things seems to be much thrilling and lovey-dovey for now.I do hope it stays the same.Tata..Tata....
