had a lovely dream during my nap today. I was super depressed/sad all day so it feels good. So Im staying after school for no reason. I walk over to the basketball gym and it turns into the gym that i had a summer membership at 1.5 years. I somehow know there is volunteering going on and I check it out. I ask if I can help sweep the floors when i get on court 1, and walk to court 2 when given a broom. When i get to court 2, i see my sponsor, who  was a member of my area's local elks club, of when i did a free throw shooting contest that i won a state championship in. We had a great relationship and I havent seen him in months. Then, we started sweeping and cleaning and I learned that the special olympics was held at the gym a few minutes ago and we are cleaning up after them. I really felt happy and finally, in place during this dream.

Interpretation: Joining the community service club at school= good idea. i have leaf raking community service in 4 days, and leaf raking is a similar motion to sweeping a broom. also, the basketball is significant because i have basketball tryouts in 5 days and i want to bring the success i had of winning a state-wide free throw shooting competition into basketball tryouts.

Yea Guga, 37.5" is my hand (7") over the rim. The problem is that camera angle is a little weird so it is hard to tell if I really got my hand over it or not.


if you nailed the dunk, its easily wrist on rim. my guess is 1-1.5 inches below hand so 38.5-39 for that jump.

you'd probably have to use a normal distribution curve to find what percentile you are in. Assuming jumping is normally distributed. Find the median. do some research and calculate the standard deviation of a decent sample on a calculator. Then calculate how many standard deviations away desired vert jump number is from median. (zscore) Then find a normal distribution table and find the percentile that matches up with your z score.

Why can't you guys use a plastic bottle full of water or a spray tube?

Why do you have to "buy" everything. I guess all you western guys are spoiled with money.

you're just cheap

Yeah TFB is with dedicated dunkers... with "dunk contest" dunks... Ballislife is with NBA prospects etc, true basketball players that do more than dunk, and still do great in game dunks and stuff like that.

i thought they were all the same

Inspired by the introduction to the paper "Effects of Strength Training on Muscle Fiber Types and Size: consequences for athletes training for high-intensity sport," by JL Andersen and P Aagaard,

you actually read those?

been dreaming alot lately. yesterday, i dreamed that i was driving on the highway and for some reason, I was sitting facing the window instead of the road. like i was shifted over 90 degrees. anyway because of this ackward position, wheni tried to hit the gas, i could only hit it hard enough to go 25mph on a 65mph road. my dad in the front seat (who is usually very calm and sometimes encourages me to drive fast) was freaking out because i was going so slow. my mom in the backseat (who always gets nervous, esp when  drive fast) was perfectly calm.
