An Introduction of sorts (more like explanaition)

I know it's been a long time since i wrote anything here, but that's mainly cause i don't digital camera to upload pics so you (whoever reads my blog) knows what i'm talking about. So what i want to do now is explain the name of my blog. First is "Shuf" which is shortened verson of my nick name, Sheffy. How "shuf" came out of sheffy i don't know, it's just what my friends called me alternating between sheffy and shuf. (sheffy was just one of the many nick name's i had, in High school i was called Kaneda, you know like from anime "Akira", okay lets get back to the topic) The reason i chose to use shuf in the title was also becasue i didn't want people to just google sheffy and find it. As for "Way Of The" is a parodoy of "Way Of The Samurai" and "Way Of The Intercepting Fist". I really like asian pop culture so i wanted to incorporate that into the title of my blog. Bruce Lee has been a big inspiration to my life becasue of awesome personality on film. As well as some of his philosphy as i got older in life (i'm not that old, i'm only 26 right now). Originally i wanted to name this blog "Last Of The Shufs", again another parody of a film title LAST OF THE MOHICANS. Instead i chose "Way Of The Shuf" becasue of Bruce Lee. Part of his philosphy in relation to teaching and learning, where one should teach what they "learned" as opposed to teaching what one has been taught. I orginally wanted to use this blog to not only say what i did during the day but explain myself as to why i made the decision that i did. From everyday things like why i bought a baseball hat (becasue team, color, or maybe becasue it was used as part of the costume for a character in a film etc). And Hopfully philosphy of my own would appear. I had been wanting to write a blog for a while but hadn't started one because many people were writing blogs and it seemed trendy to me, and if you know me you know i hate trends or that i get into them really late. But I already mention the person i thought was most responsiable for me creating a blog in my very first blog entry. Kei, whos blog i constantly read because of her cleverness and unique style. I find her blog very entertaining and only hope that readers will find my blog as entertaining as i find hers. Becasue i enjoy her blog so much she was listed as one of my "heros" in myspace (i say "was" because myspace changed it's format, which i hate and now i'm no longer sure if the heros section is still there, also i rarley log onto it anymore because i have more actual friends on facebook and Kei just happens to be one of them)
