If you don't know who I am then you're one of these new posters who signed on for Starcraft 2. And I've got to tell you ... I feel slightly envious of you. You never had to endure the that other glowing side of affection which we call Brood War. Can I tell you a story before I leave? There was a twelve year old boy in mi...

A pretty girl added me on Myspace five years ago. I'd never met or even heard of her before. We started talking and I found out she was a year younger ...

I had yet another procedure performed on me yesterday to check for the cancer which I was positive was in my esophagus. This makes a total of six doctors, including two throat specialists, I've seen in the past two m...

After my father passed away from cancer at the age of 71, I've developed a severe cancer phobia. I've been a pack-a-day smoker for the past four years and I drink from time to time so I now associate any pain or unusual sensation with some type of cancer. I would convince myself it was in my brain. Then in my bowels. Then in my lu...

So, I've been a pack-a-day smoker for the past four years. But after my father died in February, I told myself that I'd quit by the end of this year. He smoked all his life and even though he made it to the age of seventy one, he was covered with cancer in every inch of body. I didn't want to turn out like that, so I quit smoking the week before ...

My father had been in the hospital for a few days with some unexplainable weakness and back pain. He was also acting very erratic and his behavior just kept getting more and more bizarre....

I put no thought, no effort, and no care into this first episode. Please listen to it. I love you. http://aldosun.podbean.com/ :* Thu, 10 Feb 2011 19:38:38 +0900 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=191937 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=169406 pubbanana Well, as some of you know since my last blog, I have a girlfriend who is French and I need a French person to help me write a letter to her. It's nothing TOO personal, but it's personal enough to where I would prefer that, whoever decides to help me, can translate for me via PM. I suppose you could post here and it would be okay since she has no idea what Starcraft is and would never find what ...

I'm using Windows XP and it has sometimes given me the message "Windows cannot find the locally stored profile" and will log me on with a temporary account which has nothing on it - none of my music, none of my movies, none of my Word documents, nothing.

As a result, can any of you recommend me good TV series to watch? I've found a series called Un, Dos, Tres which is actually a French-dubbed Spanish series, but I really lik...

The hosts would show video of whatever current events were going on in Japan at the moment and the celebrities would take a hammer and ring the bell on...

That afternoon stretched way into the evening. It started off fine, but by the end of it, it seemed like her parents seemed to really like me and that she seemed to really hate my fucking guts. I don't blame her. I do not blame...

I dreamed that I was attending some kind of event. There's no more context to that, just an event. No idea what it was. Very fancy building. Very, very fancy. I go to the bathroom, spotless marble floor. I start washing my hands. Then I notice someone next to me is also washing their hands in the other sink. He's wearing a t-shirt and jeans. Splashes s...

But I find Suncow to be tremendously interesting. His story is just incredible to me. From what I can gather, he was a Saudi Arabian immigrant to Poland and was sort of a bad kid. Then he moved to Korea to try his hand at progaming. After leaving, he moved to Egypt to become a tennis instructor at some typ...

I already started teaching myself Swedish. Hur år låget? :* 1. How is the public transportation? It's impossible to live in the United goddamn States of America without a car and I hate it.

I immediately flipped the fuck out and proceeded to tell him about how much I love Johan Cruyff and how he has been my hero for I don't know how long. I even attempted to use any Dutch phrase (even Cruy...

If you've read one of my previous blog entries titled "The Start of Something", you'd know that everything reminds of progaming. Well, actually, only if you've read the last reply, which was made by me ... while intoxicated. But I want all of TeamLiquid to know that I want all of you to be able to experience the joy of progaming. The true joy. The ki...

But as I'm moving/deleting files for a reformat, I thought I'd just post it rather than delete it.) Choi Jin Woo wasn't a special case.

You were as handsome as a prince. We were poor at first. Neither one of us had any toys. But you played with flies on the screen door with me. You even found a paper cup in the street and we spent hours rolling it back and forth in the garage.

No order needed or given because they are all hated equally. - My friend who always tries to correct lyrics I'm singing when I'm right and he's wrong.
