    Sometimes I want to be a writer. I know I can write and I sure have the stories, just unsure if I want to write fiction, non-fiction, or straddle the line.

    Sometimes I want to be Anthony Bourdain. Probably want my show to be a bit more tailored to the backpacker crowd, but I think there's not enough money in targeting a show towards people whose complete MO is in spending as little money as possible and staying the f away from the TV.

    Sometimes I want to be the man who breaks the corruption of FIFA and makes football America's game too. (football as in you play with your feet, not you lose money betting every Sunday)

    I promised a man once that I would try standup before I die, and sometimes I want that to happen. Probably not in Malaysia though, my take on religion might not be too well-received.

    Sometimes I actually do want to be a poker pro, and the 2 years I tried were alright. I just don't want to spend all my time on the computer though... already do enough of that, and sometimes there's that whole "And I want to contribute to society" thing. That and Howard Lederer stole my moneys and my prime earnings potential years when I was finally, for the first time, having MTT success to go with crushing SNGs.

    Sometimes I want to continue this whole English teaching around the world adventure til the day I die, but being a rockstar in front of little kids worldwide gets more difficult as you age.

    Sometimes I want to be a father. Not quite ready yet, have to answer OP's question first and find a woman insane enough.

    Sometimes I want to be a coach. Getting Malaysia to the World Cup for the first time would be pretty amazing, but they'd have to trust me and let me blow up the entire system first. Not gonna happen.

    Sometimes I want to end the battle between wanting to dabble in all of the above and caving to the societal pressures to just say F it and pick one of the above and run with it. Pretty bad at that though, so the meandering continues.

    Holy A-men! Allsome.....OP Vid still cool and is the essence of all of this.....

    oops, i meant, be ny as in new york

    the only hardcore bands i would suggest would probably be ones you've heard of already that are more old school like sick of it all, gorilla biscuits, chain of strength or more melodic hardcore bands like strike anywhere and ignite
