Its Been A While
thought id quickly blog about some of the things that have been going on lately since a few of you have been giving me grief for not writing. I was under the impression that I was talking to myself but its GOOD TO KNOW that I am not.
First and foremost, my job takes 99% of my time. Im out of the house about 12 hours a day and once I get home, I take care of dad, eat, go online for a bit or watch tv, then talk to my homegirl and then crash.
Nothing really exciting has been going on in my life. Still single, still go out here and there on the weekends but usually with family or family friends. My father just had surgery on his knee yesterday which went pretty well but he's unable to move around as much so he needs more of my attention which means that I will be home a bit more (on weekends) which means I might have time to write more, who knows.
Besides that, life is pretty much all right and I dont have much to complain about.
OH, moms in Saudi Arabia with her brother and sister in law having a blast I imagine. Hopefully that doesn't get taken out of context and I dont receive a call from Homeland Security or CSIS

Hello
I know, its been a while and all 3 of you who even come here have missed me so here I am. I have no idea what to talk about besides the fact that life is extremely busy and stressful but hey, what can you do right? Work has been getting a little better and things are starting to get smoother as I go through the motions but there are other factors that stress me out and wish I sold hard drugs so I could be rich.

I Told Myself The Next Job I Took Wouldn't Be An Office Job
so that I wouldnt sit there and get any fatter than I already am but my goodness do I feel the pain after I get home. I spend most of the day traveling the city meeting with clients and potential clients and I gotta say, by the time 2 pm comes around I am pooped!
I hope I do cut some weight though.

All It Takes Is A Reminder
I've started to implement a new solution to when I'm feeling down. Remind myself about the good things I have in life and reiterate the plans/goals I have for the future. Sounds a bit cliche or outright dumb but it's been doing wonders for me.
I just had a conversation with a good buddy of mine and was letting him know about my job and how happy I am with it and how it coincides with my school timings and I told him about my plans for after I'm done school and it just brightened up my mood. I wasn't exactly depressed or anything like that but I was a little down about something very silly and so that conversation really helped me out. Plus Im getting sick! :( Thank goodness its the weekend though because I'll be fully recovered by the time Monday comes around. Look at this, I'm already looking forward to Monday *shakes head*

Im Going To Start Blogging About My Encounters On The TTC
The TTC is our transit system here in Toronto. Jesus CHRIST! I meet at least 2 weirdos every single day but the past 2 days have just been too much for me to handle. I try my hardest not to laugh but end up usually failing. Yesterday after my buddy got off I decided to take a quick 10 minute nap until I reached my stop (the last one on the line) and as soon as I drifted off, I feel somebody tapping me on my leg. I open my eyes and look over only to see this woman, who in my opinion MUST have been homeless and most likely on drugs, asks me with a completely straight face if I've ever videotaped myself masturbating profusely. I didn't respond or even give a reaction, I just simply turned back over and closed my eyes. After a few moments, it registered and I let out a little smirk but decided not to let her know that I was awake otherwise Id be asking for more trouble but I have to ask myself....who ASKS those types of questions?
Today I had 2 different things happen in front of me. The first wasn't funny at all and as a matter of fact, it was kind of scary. Some man walked into the subway and started threatening to kill people but he was calling them by random names and so naturally, everybody thought he was some mentally ill person and ignored him as he started ranting about his daughter and tapping peoples newspapers to tell them that it was him on the cover (btw the first page was covering the Olympics). After about 2 minutes of doing this he turns over to my partner and, in the most normal voice and politeness, asks what the time was. After he got his response he then thanked him and then went RIGHT back into his ranting. Of course, my friend and I are now hysterically laughing.
Then on my way home I got onto whats called the RT (rapid transit, an outdoor transit system with only 5 stops) and just before it left the station I got onto, this girl got on. Now, I was actually looking at her as she was walking up to the cart because to be honest with you, she wasn't too bad looking but the moment she got on she started doing the weirdest things. First, she started making this really high pitch sound as her shivered from the cold. I smiled at her because I thought it was kind of funny but boy was I stupid for doing that. She immediately tells me how she has to pee and how she might just go right there. Mind you, the cart is FILLED with people to the brim and everybody is paying attention to what this girl is saying. I then laugh as I continue texting my friend (sup bingles, you hottie you) when suddenly she starts sharing her jail stories and how she's stabbed people in the wrist with a fork and then dragged it till chunks of skin came off. I didn't know whether she expected me to give her "props" or if she was trying to scare me. I just kept letting out a fake laugh and wondering how somebody who looks so normal, and lets be frank, kind of cute, be so incredibly strange. She then took a shot at people who lived in Scarborough and immediately lost my attenion. Bitch.

How Many Of You Have Friends....
well if I left it right there I bet most of you wouldn't be able to put your hands up, but no this is what Im wondering. How many of you have friends who are REALLY good friends and are people you can be open with and be yourself with, but who change the MOMENT other friends come around? I swear nothing bothers me more than that! I mean, I can understand people teasing you or trying to make you look stupid and to be honest with you, I find that funny and take part because I know that more times than not, I will end up winning it and have everybody laugh at THEM. But its when they get this attitude or think that their sh*t doesnt smell or ignore you when you're trying to get their attention or respond viciously. Its like OOOOOKAY DRAMAQUEEN/KING, you could have just said you weren't in the mood or whatever, no need to take it out on me because you cant seem to keep your emotions in check. There are still some friends that I need to weed out thats for sure.
ALL RIGHT!
I got a job. I wont list the details yet but Im a happy camper and I thought Id blog about it!

What The HELL?! There's Another IBLegend Out There!
http://www.myspace.com/iblegend
jesus christ, is this guy trying to give you a seizure or what? I wonder what his name stands for. Not sure if I ever mentioned the history behind my name so I guess I'll do that now. It all came from......you guess it, Internet forums. Desi Internet forums might I add lol. I was known as Hydro to more people but actually started my "e-career" with names that had "Khan" in it, such as "King Khan" or "Khan*Artist" and even "Khan-DUmb" (purposely spelling it like that) and then eventually it was changed to Legend. I know it's kind of cocky to say this, but I've been around long enough and sadly speaking, been a part of one too many controversies and so I thought the name fit and most people agree with me. The reason I put the iB is somewhat of a secret but Im sure most of you who know me would know lol. Lets just say we keep that secret amongst friends.
Friends
You know something? My entire life I always wanted to be surrounded by hundreds of friends. The age gap between me and my 3 older siblings wasn't much but there was enough of a generation gap and difference (somewhat) of upbringing (leniency) that we didn't really get along. I have to be honest when I say that I didn't like the treatment from them and somewhat resented them and so I wanted to be the exact opposite of them and wanted to be the "cool" kid that had friends closer than his own siblings. I thought I would have a lot of friends that would stick around forever and refused to accept any other scenario, but I lost contact with many of them. Most of my closest friends are either blood related or related through marriage, but there are very few in numbers and you know what? I love it like that. I have a much bigger respect for my own siblings and hope that one day, they can appreciate me for not what I've done for myself, but what I've done for others. I think its time I start thinking about myself and keep those few, close friends that I have. I love each and every one of them. I've also met some other really amazing people through forums and I know some of you might think that is odd and maybe even funny, but I'll tell you something. They are some of the nicest, most realest people that I've ever met in my life and even though we've never met in the flesh, I'd be more than happy to do so and keep a lasting friendship. Mostly with the one in Boston lol.

I Feel Like Death
so 2 nights ago I hung out with a buddy of mine at his girlfriends place, he was having a little get together with some friends to celebrate one of his friends birthdays. I ended up staying late but my dad called me and said he needed me to come home to give him a massage and so I decided to leave. Of course, I dont drive and so I waited outside for the bus to come. I have to say, that night was probably the coldest weather that Ive EVER experienced and to make matters worse, I didnt dress accordingly at ALL but that was because I wasnt expecting to be outside for more than 10 minutes of so (smoke). I waited over an hour until finally I said to HELL with it and started walking. It took me about an hour to get home, and this is after waiting for a bus for an hour. By the time I got home I couldnt feel anything and my fingers started burning. I had to give my dad a massage and I swear to god, my fingers froze to the point where I couldnt move them. I put my hand under the tap and let hot water pour on em for a bit but that was a stupid idea cuz all it did was hurt! To make matters worse, woke up with a congested chest, sore throat, runny nose, and I've lost my voice (its coming back though). What a night.

Taking Requests For Questions
feel free to ask me anything you'd like.
I will answer them in a timely manner.
My UFC 109 Predictions
Its surprising that 99.9999999% of my blog entries haven't been about the UFC or other MMA fightse/events. I guess I usually make those on iB but as of late I havent even been doing that too often.
Anyways, here are my predictions (I only write about the fights I care about):
Couture vs Coleman - I just dont see Coleman taking this unless he lands a lucky shot on couture and knocks him out. Not really his style nor is this likely to happen. They are both great wrestlers but I will give Randy the advantage only because he is a much better over all fighter. I see conditioning being a big factor in this fight too. My prediction is TKO in Round 2.
Nate Marquardt vs Chael Sonnen - Im not entirely sure why Nate is having to fight Chael. I mean, I know they want to feed him a fight before he gets a chance at Anderson or Vitor but Jesus Christ, is Chael really going to be a challenge for him? Lets wait and see. I say its over by the second round, again TKO
Mike Swick vs Paulo Thiago - If this was before the fight between Jon Fitch and Paulo, I would have said Mike will take this easily, but Paulo surprised me and has been doing pretty well in all of his fights so far and so you have to give him a chance in this. I just see Mike being more dominant and faster with his striking. I see this going to the distance though.
Damian Maia vs Dan Miller - Now this is one fight Im really excited about seeing. Both have excellent ground game, obviously Maia being the better of the two however Dan has much better stand up and can drop Damian to get the stoppage so lets see what happens. I predict Damian via submission. Not sure what round.
Matt Serra vs Frank Trigg - To be quite honest, I dont really care too much for this fight but I dont mind either guy so of course I'll give them enough respect and mention them on my oh so holy blog lol. I think Matt will get the better of Frank unless Frank comes in better shape than he did in his last fight. Realistically, either can take it and I wont be hurt by either person winning.
Phillipe Nover vs Rob Emerson - I like Rob Emerson and have liked him even more since he KO'd karo's cousin Manny but I like Nover a bit more and want this kid to do really well in the 155 weightclass division. I hope he takes this!
Shout Outs To Rolles Gracie who will be fighting Mustapha Al Turk
Im cheering both fighters for that one
Melvin, you better win this fight and not fight sloppy like you did againts Nate! You had that fight!
Still Looking For Work
I know I have some things on my plate but I need some steady income and so if anybody knows of any place that is hiring, please let me know asap!
Greatly appreciate it.
Currently Workin On An Album
been trying to push out as many tracks as possible over the past couple of weeks. Havent really told too many people about this simply because I dont think it really matters to tell them now. Lets see where it goes and then we'll go from there. I am working with a producer who is pretty serious about doing something long term with me, and so I am quite excited about that. Wish me luck and stay tuned!

Oh And As For Quitting Cigarettes
well Im failing miserably but Im at about 5 or less a day. Cant get any better than that.... at least not during stressful times!
Tuesday, January 12, 2010
Yeah Not Doing So Well
I had 2 smokes today. I am weak. Weak I tell you. I've cut down significantly though but even then, just as I had imagined, I've been a grumpy **%^!
Wednesday, January 6, 2010
Yeah So I Lied About Making Resolutions
Sue me! All you'll get is pocket lint.
I will make one though, and that is quitting cigarettes. I smoked for 7 years straight and then quit for almost 3 years but then started again and I wish I could give a half decent reason as to why I did, but I don't have one and so I've decided to give quitting another go. I have to admit, I haven't been one to stick to any goals or push myself to test my will power, more because I had a strict up bringing and always felt that I would do whatever it was I wanted to once I got old enough. Its too bad that most of those "things" were stupid and harmful to my body.
I've given myself a deadline for quitting and so I've decided that I will begin this horrific struggle, which will leave me grumpy and agitated, on January 11 2010. This gives me the opportunity to enjoy the weekend with my friends and then get back to business (well......sort of) come Monday. Wish me luck!
oh....and I will be blogging about my struggle and possible confrontations I get into the first week or 2. I get pretty volatile when I crave a smoke and can't.
Once again, wish me luck and PLEASE, give me some motivation!
