Taj McWilliams-Franklin


Working on Delta has been very stressful and at time I felt like just giving up. Last night while I was at work everything was all stressed. At around 4 o'clock in the morning I got a call from a lady who wanted to book a flight. I took the call like every other calls. When I asked the caller for her name she stated that her name was Taj McWilliams. I proceeded with the call on trying to get the caller the best service possible while fight the urge to sleep. Upon asking her for her credit card info, I ask her for her name as it appears on the card and she stated it was Taj McWilliams-Franklin, that when it hit why the name Taj McWilliams sounded familiar. So I being as nosy as I am I asked her if she was the Taj McWilliams-Franklin the WNBA player. Guess what she said yes, I wanted to die...I wanted to scream and tell her I am a fan. But remembering that I was at work I controlled myself and got her the service she requested. OK, for those of you who have not the slightest ideas who she is, let me give you a break down.....

Taj McWilliams-Franklin is an American professional female basketball player. She is a 6ft. 2in forward playing for the Detroit Shocks in the WNBA (Women National Basketball Association). She was drafted by the Orlando Miracles in 1999. She is 2008 WNBA Champion, 2004 US Women's Senior National Team, 2005 All-WNBA Defensive Team, 2005 KIm Perrot Sportsmanship Award, 6 times WNBA All-star, 2005 and 2006 All-WNBA Second Team and was named Player of the Week twice in 2006. Omg...I didn't know that they book their own flights and thing I always thought they have people who do those things for them. Just imagine if I get a call from Lisa Leslie or Kobe, Lebon or even Dwade....I can tell you this that call from Taj made my day.

Lakers Takes A 2-0 Lead


I as much a fan of Dwight Howard as I am of Kobe, Lebron, Wade and the other guys. His game brings back memories of Shaq in his early days and as he evolves he will no doubt in my mind become just as dominant as the big guys before him. The question still remains:Can he lead the Magic to an NBA Title? Sure he is surrounded by the likes of Hedo Turkuglu, Rashard Lewis, Jameer Nelson and so on, but do they have what it takes to come back from a 0-2 deficit to win the title. Ask this question a year from now and I think my answer will be yes. Not this year, why you might ask...and my answer is Kobe is hungrier this year than any other year. You see Kobe is at that stage of his career when retirement comes knocking and he wants to prove to the basketball world that he can win a title without Shaq. The Lakers have found a way to control Dwight in the paint, but somehow the Magics are yet to find and answer for Kobe. The problem for the Magics too is that Kobe's role players are playing great basketball as well. In the overtime win last night Pau Gasol stepped up and along with Kobe spoils the Magics Game 2 comeback and they might just spoils the Magics chance of winning a title. Lakers have what it takes to sweep the series. Magics will be looking to come back at home, we'll just have to wait and see......

Just Blogging


At home and bored out of my wits. Last night was my first taking calls for Delta. It was okay, considering.....I just need to get a hang of the systems and all else will fall into place...sigh...I hope. I got about 5 hours sleep when I got in this morning, did some laundry and cook. I am wanting of so much things and in order for me to have them or accomplish my dreams I will have to work very hard at it. I have so little time before I reach 30 to accomplish my goals. I have to split my time between my goals and Antoine. He is the main reason I am working so hard. I want nothing more than for him to be happy. He is such a jovial little boy, also laughing. He has developed this close bond with my brother and people always thing that Antoine is his son. Every time that Antoine hears a bike he think it's my brother coming. When Boom comes to visit Antoine is all excited, but when he leaves, all hell breaks lose. Boom has this love for bikes and Antoine has developed that love as well. They are like best friends. I happy though cause seeing that his dad is not around, I am happy that he will have a male role model to look up to.
