Top 20 Hot Female Athletes

currently my role models. see them at Barstool Sports.

Mejo "macho" (to the point of being bastos) nga lang ang tone ng article. But he may be telling the truth.

These are chicks of brawn and beauty. So who says that these two should be mutually exclusive?

Case in point: Lokelani McMichael (triathlon)

enviable hotness.

If I had my life to live over

"If I had my life to live over,

I'd dare to make more mistakes next time. I'd relax;

I'd limber up.

I would be sillier than I have been this trip.

I would take fewer things seriously.

I would take more chances.

I would climb more mountains and swim more rivers.

I would eat more ice cream and less beans.

I would perhaps have more actual troubles, but I'd have fewer imaginary ones.

You see, I'm one of those people who lived sensibly and sanely hour after hour, day after day. Oh, I had my moments, and if I had to do it over again, I'd have more of them. In fact, I'd try to have nothing else. Just moments, one after the other, instead of living so many years ahead of each day. I've been one of those persons who never goes anywhere without a thermometer, a hot water bottle, a raincoat, and a parachute. If I had it to do over again, I would travel lighter than I have.

If I had my life to live over again, I would start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall. I would go to more dance; I would ride more merry-go-rounds. I would pick more daisies.

If I love You...

I’m up there waiting for you to come down the aisle

And I know that you don’t want to come

I know you don’t want to come

But that you’ll come anyway because you love me

and if I love you

if I love

You

not the woman that I’m trying to make you be

not the woman that I hope you’d become

but you

if I did, I wouldn’t be up there waiting for you
I would be letting you go.

… I really wish that you didn’t think

I wish that you knew.

Burke’s Wedding Vows

I could promise to hold you and cherish you

I could promise to be there in sickness and in health

I could say till death do us part

But I won’t

Those vows are for optimistic couples

The ones full of hope

And I do not stand here on my wedding day

optimistic or full of hope

I am not optimistic, I am not hopeful

I am sure

I am steady

And I know

I am a heart man

I take them apart, I put them back together

I hold them in my hands

I am a heart man

So this I am sure

you are my partner, my lover, my very best friend

My heart, my heart beats for you

And on this day, the day of our wedding, I promise you this

I promise you to lay my heart in the palm of your hands

I promise you

Me

my favorite Christina Yang moment

I was right

I swear I believed what I did was right

I don’t want you to forgive me

Frankly I’d find it patronizing if you did

Because while I know I was right

You think I’m wrong

Which doesn’t matter

Because I’m in this

I’m in this for the long haul

And I’m in this to finish the race

So if that means I don’t win this one

Then fine, I don’t win

You win.

... it's the school I CHOOSE.

today, the Eagles lost against the Archers ...

why does the basketball team have this psychological problem? Just when the team makes a big win, a bigger slump is almost always sure to follow. I have noticed this pattern for years now, starting when the team got strong circa late-1990's (nung nasa college pa ako). And this problem persists even with the string of stellar coaches and players.

Is it a problem of over-confidence? Caving in the pressure to perform? Angst or pamimilosopiya about not deserving the win? Kulang sa libog or sa Viagra? Or baka sobra naman tapos naubos dahil nag-celebrate ng panalo?

It's clearly not a physical problem. It's all in their heads.

heck, win or lose, it's the school I CHOOSE. ANIMO!

nothing more needs to be said.
