Isaiah's Tech

So, this is going to be my first blog ever. I am very excited, my girlfriend just said i remind her of Jim Halpert from 'The Office.'  Sorry to anyone who reads this, i know it's looking kind of plain right now, but i actually decided to read around and found that using templates would be a good start for beginners and such. So, let me tell you a bit about myself, fellow Blogger people.

To start this off, my name is Isaiah James Copon, and i live with my mother. (lame-o right?) Keep in mind that i am only 18, so calm down.  Unfortunately, my father passed away when i was 2 and a half years old, and for the next 14 years of my life i lived with my mother, grandmother, 2 cousins, and my aunt and uncle.  My father was African, although i don't know exactly where from, since he already passed away before i was able to ask him questions like that.  My mother is Filipina, so that makes me half African and half Filipino.  If you need to know anything else, i'm sure that my profile tab or whatever, will answer the rest of your questions.

I don't really know what else to talk about, so i guess i can tell you about my life, and what's been going on these past couple of days.  I'll start off talking about my cousin Cathleen, since she's been stirring up all the buzz lately.  So, my cousin plays on the girl's basketball team for St. Marcellinus, and they recently came in 1st at the ROPSSAA tournament, which is where the best schools in the area play for the championship.  I would say she's in the run for MVP with 2 other girls, Cassandra and Sibyl.  Last week our school held a 3 on 3 basketball tournament and she was a late entry with 3 of her friends. One of them was her teammate [and rival] Sibyl.  They won the tournament on the girl's side.  Moving along, there was also a 3-point competition that my little cousin decided to join. Little did she know, she would be the only girl to sign up.  Since she was the only girl to sign up, they decided to throw her in the 3-point competition with the guys.  Keep in mind my cousin is 15, while the guys in this competition are ranging from 14 - 19 years of age.  She ended up with a score of 14 edging out Niko (spell check?), the second place winner, who had 13.  My cousin ends up winning in the 3-on-3 and the 3-point competition. Impressive.  She, of course, told me all of this on the phone when she got home at 9 p.m. on Friday night from the tournament.  I ended up seeing her medals on Sunday when i went to their house to get a haircut.

Well, since this isn't exactly the direction i wanted to go with 'my' blog, i guess i should also mention that the Nokia N97 was announced today (exciting!!) and that Windows will be releasing the Vista SP2 Beta tomorrow (Thursday, December 4, 2008).  This is courtesy of Engadget and PC World, respectively.

A boring first blog, but it is my first one. Hopefully i can spice things up for next time.

Thanks for reading, for anyone that did. =)
