Tricked into my First day of School

So my first day of school was not planned. Not planned at all. I had the option of to either start this very day or in October. I wanted to do October but they kept on insisting that I should start this very day. Not cool at all. So we spent a lot of time doing paper work which took up the whole morning. After I was free and that they would assign me night classes. After all the paper work and such I went to pick my kid and take her to her Logan Color Guard. After I would have to prepare myself to be going back to school with my class being at 6. So I go back to school and they give me my schedule. I only had two classes but since it was midquarter these classes were 4 hours long each. My class for that day was a computer class which was pretty much the same as the computer class I took at chabot. I sped through all the assignments and knew I would have to talk to the admin to get me out of the class.I pretty much sped through the class and everyone was doing their assignments while I chat online since it was a computer class. By the way though just to add no eye candy whatsoever. At least I will be more focused on school.

FInally our second win (Jazz-E)

So it was one of those games where pride had to come in. The team we were facing has not had a win yet so there was no way losing would be the mindset. It was pretty rough as we started the game with only four people and the other team like had twelve so fatigue would play a part in this game. As the game did go on some of our teammates did arrive. As I remember I think we only had one sub. We had to catch up but when we did we did not let up and ended up winning our second game. It was a game that was supposed to be guaranteed but obviously it was not as easy as the records show it.

Education Turn Around and a Bet?

So after that crazy night I had wake up bright and early for an opportunity to go to school. My mom suggested that I should go to Heald. I had to go through an interview which made it seem as they wanted to make sure I was fully committed to going to school. At this point I really was just so I could get shit done. I was so tired though but my answers were so on point they really could not deny me. Soon after the interview I had a tour of the place and I ended up having to take an evaluation test which so ridiculous because for 1 thing I was not told I would be taking a test and another I was still pretty tired from the night before. So I was there doing some grammar and math stuff not feeling too confident, especially in math just because I haven'tbeen in a math class in so long. When the results were printed actually did pretty well. From the 3 portions of each test I got 98, 96, and 84 . 84 being the math section of course but yes I did very well with having barely any rest at all. So after all that Jazz was done had lunch and went back home. So coming back home with a renewed confidence something came up. I was having a conversation with Raquel and what came out of that conversation was a bet. A bet in which there was no certain prize yet but the concept was that I must lose 50 lbs by New Years and with that giving me about only 4 months. I forsaw that I would be losing the weight before the bet happened but this just made it more interesting and I think that I am allowed to say that I perform best under pressure. So a lot of commotion started to stir up about this bet and the lines were pretty much drawn. So I let this play out. Had dinner that night at Red Lobster and saw Kim there. THe night was pretty much the whole night there.

Feeling a little bit WOOISH

Background of this day was pretty much not a good educational based week so I really needed to go out and get rid of some steam. The day like the week was pretty crappy as nothing really happened and the people I would usually hit up were not feeling the same urge to go out.The day just seemed to drag on and on. I was actually begging people to go out but oh well no one seemed down or either didn't know what to do. There was a slight glimpse of hope though. Yvonne and Coco were going to go to Voodoo in San Jose. So now that there was a plan I just need to find people to go with. Previously though I put on my status that I was bored and if anyone wanted to kick. So the people that went was Vince, Jennalyn and a really late pick up getting Keith. The time was really rushed since we had to make it before 11. It really did not help that we had to make a stop at Great Mall to get Keith. Really pushing on time though I had my thoughts of not picking Keith up. But he begged and pleaded and kept offering cash to pay for a partial amount of the cover because obviously we were going to be late since we made the stop. It was quite interesting though that we only missed the 11 o'clock by pretty much 10 min. In the long run cash wise it was not one of the best decisions. Even though we hit a rough patch it was not difficult to have fun especially since we saw many people that we knew such as; Ryan,Justin,Mark,Lawrence, Jane, Lauren,Julia,Chantel, Cyndle, Rina, and etc. There was so many people there that we knew it was all good. Spent most of the time with Yvonne and Coco drank a couple drinks here and there but it was well deserved after this wack week. It was a good turn around. After that was over we ended up chilling at the Hayward Karaoke. It was pretty much a full day and a good way to remedy the wackness of the week.

2nd Day of Failure

So being rejected from 3 different class is pretty discouraging. Keeping my hopes high me and Raquel again tried adding a class. It was not the best of situations to be in with budget cuts and such. So trying once again yet again failed attempt. This was really becoming depressing. Feeling slightly hungry ended up going to Costco for free samples. So we walked around getting some Korean BBQ and other goodies. Soon after Jake was too lazy to hang out so we ended up back at my house. We watched some Community to kill time and Raquel kept laughing at this trailer for Babies, cause the baby kept saying Mu-Mah. After that though we went to go get some food at Ma's Wok near my house. She got Mongolian beef and I got Sesame Chicken. We had some our soup there and soon headed to class. This class had the best potential and if I was to be accepted to be in any of these classes it would be this one. Anwell was in there so I would at least know someone and by far this was the only anatomy class that had cute girls there so it would be for sure I would be awake. Things did seem as it would be a turning point but as the previous attempts it was another failure. So as we left class we went to the only class that we were registered for which was somewhat of a film class called Final Cut pro. It seemed like it would be an interesting class but not worth spending money on it. The class consisted of a lot of older people and the syllabus made it seem as we were going to be slowly going through a manual for a computer program. It was not even worth staying in and we just left having a somewhat feeling of defeat. It was very much a downer not being able to get into any classes. The only good thing that really came out of this was just hanging out with one of the besties but other than that day was so wack.

First day of Failure?

So this was the first day of school and I had complete faith in my record of adding in all my classes.So Jake called me in the morning because he knew I needed classes. SO he had an art class set up and I got ready as quick as possible to find parking and such. So me and Jake tried adding that class which was a total fail. So soon after we waited for Raquel in the cafeteria which was somewhat difficult because she didn't have a working phone on her. She eventually came through and we waited around for class. We went to class and it was pretty much packed. So many people trying to add it was ridiculous chances were so slim. Basically we just left.We had a good long break in between the next class would to attempt to go to. We then decided to go to Stoneridge and see if we could get her phone fixed. So we head out asked about her phone and they did something to it which brought it back to life at least for a short time. We then ate at this pretty good Sushi place called Sozo. It was cheap too so it was a good place to have lunch. We still had some time to chill so we ended up going to her house. Joryl soon came over and we watched a few episodes of HIMYM season 3. So after a few good episodes we would have to again attempt to add the Anatomy class. We showed up not as many people as before yet we still had no chance of being admitted. So as I dropped her off there was only one thing to do in this time of defeat. It was Wednesday it was obvious what we should do, DNBS. Duh. So we actually reconvened back at my house and to what I remember Joryl drove. I also pretty much don't remember who else went other than Me, Jake ,and Raquel. I think when we got there Vince and Jason were already there and Keith,Joey and Jennalyn were there. Everyone else I am not quite sure but it was just another chill night. The next me and Raquel would have to go back to school so we called it a night but some of the others went to Dirty Bird oh well.

Hella Late

So basically I am going to have a shit load of late posts. Tuesday before CHabot started I really didn't do much. I just got myself prepare to take a chance in trying to get a class. The good thing about it though is I would not being going at this alone as one of my besties, Raquel would be going with me for the same class. So today was my day of rest and preparation and tomorrow would definitely be one of those risky days of chance oh well on to the next.

Michael's Last Day

Yeah another day in which I thought I had school but I didn't until Wednesday. I still wanted to be prepared for waking up early. So pretty much this day was just staying and playing video games. I think I went to the gym with Jake in the morning though just because we didn't have class. I am pretty sure that I went to the gym becaus ethis was the day I smashed my thumb. I was having a pretty good workout then I got a disappointing in which I lost focused during and exercise and I smashed my finger my thumb to be exact with a 40lb weight. Yes it was all swollen and such. I actually felt that maybe I had broke my finger haha. Oh well nothing will ever stop me. SO anyways after the gym didn't really do too much. Pretty much just waited for Michael and we chilled and played Call of Duty for the last time before he left. Oh well I guess til next break.

Repeats

This was just a quick day of things I have already done previously. So Raquel finally woke up and left. Soon after I went with my dad and brother to watch Expendables. After that went to Costco. After that I met up with Karen to go eat at Toppings tappings whichever. Hung out for a little but and then went to Dennis house. Jake Joryl Dennis and Anna were there. Had some spaghetti parmesan and watched some How I Met Your Mother and soon after called it a night. No biggie but it was a good time to recover.

Movies and Loft

SO this day was quite interesting as I was not in one of my better moods. This was a day we were supposed to goto the movies but pretty much everybody bailed on me. SO whack luckily Michael came through. SO we watched Scoot Pilgrim vs the World. Really good movie I'll probably get it later when it comes out on DVD/ BLu-ray so after we pretty much chilled. THinking about what shall be done about later not quite sure yet. I was ever so irritated by the lack of attendance of the morning so I wasn't even sure if I would be even going to Loft. I did eventually let thigns go and decided to watch Expendables and see how I felt after that. So Jake was the only one who was down for the movie and me and Michael picked him up. It was quite interesting how everything did turn out. Vince wasn't able to get Alex because I don't know but after the movie we had back track and get Alex in Twin Bridges. Picked him up and got a small bottle of Hen and a Mickey's 40. After that we picked up Vince and headed towards Loft. So we were on our way and we met up with Marjorie , Mylene, Arnel and Kevin. Also there Raquel and Karen who brought Teck and two of his friends. YEah it was pretty fun drank mucho and yeah. It was pretty fun I got somewhat drunk. We headed out to Denny's and then Karen needed help with Raquel at Automall. SO Vince took me and my car there. Got Teck and his homies to cut out. I stayed with Raquel while Karen drove back to Denny's I stayed with Raquel while Karen went inside and I ended up with a free meal as Alex paid for my food. So I head back with Karen to her house with Raquel. She was in condition to drive so Id rove her car to my house since the guys already dropped my car off. I took care of Raquel took her to the bathroom and after tucked her in bed. Left a garbage on the side and a water bottle just in case. THe red bull vodka kept me awake for awhile so I just checked up on her from every now and trhen to make sure if she needed anything. It was an interesting night and I'm definitely glad that I came out tonight awesomeness from beginning to end.

At the time Alex's Going away

So it was the next day and I woke up and there was no food or people in my house. So I call Karen to ask if she wants to go out and eat and she's down. So i get ready and go pick her up. We ate at Pho Pasteur. We chatted for awhile about how tired we were and such and was figuring out what we should do later that night. Since Alex was leaving I decided that we should just go to Hooters. Karen agreed and that was pretty much that. There was a lot of confusion with the ride situation but it all worked out fine. IT was Just me, Karen, Michael, Jake, his bro Chris, Joryl Keith Alex, Calvin, Joseph, Roger and Vince. Just chill didn't eat too much. Then found out Alex wasn't really leaving yet but oh well.

Jake and Jason's Birthday BBQ (one of the best so far)

So this was the more eventful day of the birthdays to come. It started really early in the day where I had to drive my mom to her appointment and then Santana Row. I remember doing somewhat errands which eventually lead to the point where we went to Jason's place. so this the supposed guest list ofall the people that were there.

Me,Yvonne,Michael, Joryl,Raquel, Melanie, Jennilyn, Jason, Joseph,Drew, Roger, Teck, Regie, Vince, Marjorie, Mylene,ANgie, Joey, Keith,Eduardo, Alex, Marielle, Jackie, T.T., Thuy,Kailani, Karen, Carl, Francis, Vernon,Fastejo, Joe N, Suit Jo, Marybeth,Rachel, Lin Cherry,Jackie,Jen.

I really hope I didn't forget anyone because I would feel bad but probably not too bad sincebarely anyone reads this anyways. SO this night was hella fun. A lot was going on there was a lot of food and drinks. Jason escaped throwing up since all the attention went to Jake yacking in the bushes again. It was chill I did mostly clean up work during the festivities but that's just me being responsible I guess. It was a really good turn out since for me it was last notice. Yes it was one of the best BBQ so far though.

It thoughts of the food, Joryl Raquel and Mel made some Spam subi and Joryl mad half of pancit since he drank he forgot stuff so it didn't turn out the way he wanted. I brought like 6 pizzas and a handle of grey goose which Vince threw down a dub for. Drew threw in a dub for the pizza. So spent like maybe 30+ which is whatever.. Joseph brought chips and dips and there as usual a lot of beer. Marjorie brought some really good cupcakes she made and Yvonne made Devil Eggs which I had the last of each of those. So yeah a lot of drinking this night as well. People heard about the yack bet and started to go for it but gave up quickly. So yeah that was about it. Oh the games which took place were some beer pong, I think baseball, and like I guess downing from a handle whihc wasn't a game but something the birthday boys did.

Jake's Birthday

We really did not do much this day. Jake was in Vallejo so I didn't really expect to do anything. We practically didn't do anything. Jake came back and we ended up hanging out at Tuttimelon. It was Just Joryl, Raquel, Jake, Me, Michael Regie, Karen and Vince came last. So we just chilled there got some dessert watched whatever was showing and Loitered some more in the parking lot until we went home. The next day was pretty tiring itself so it was a good thing I got rest today.

Chill Monday

So today was supposed to be a day of errands but for some reason was quickly cleared up. So instead I had lunch with Karen at Mayflower, a dim sum place. I like it there so it was a good meal for me. So after that we hung out at the mall, Newpark Mall. karen wanted to buy heels I guess so we walked around and she got some at Shiek. Chilled a bit more and got some Jamba Juice out of it. So we headed back home and I dropped her off. I went to pick up my brother and thought that would be the end of my day. There was something planned later at Dirty Bird but was not really feeling in the bar mood. Michael came over though and played some Call of Duty. He then brought up the idea we should go watch "The Other Guys" with Will Farrell and Mark Wahlberg. Sounded like a good idea I ask people who would be down. The only positive reply I got was from Karen. So I drop off my brother at my cousin's house and then picked up Karen. So it was the three of us who watched the movie and it was really funny, highly recommended. So after the movie we went to go eat at Sonics. Chilled and ate in the parking lot. Mylene came through but didn't do much just chat for a little bit before we had to go home. Another day that could have possibly been dull again was not. Life is never boring.

FIrst Game Won for my One

So I missed my last game and heard we only lost by two. I felt pretty fresh today but still like on vacation mode. So I was not too sure about how I would play today. What was interesting though is that I did get a text about my game and with that I felt more motivated to win this game. I actually wanted to dedicate this game to that person who sent me that text. To prove I just didn't say this after we did win that game I sent Kwek a message an hour before the game guaranteeing a victory. SO the game did go back and forth and I was scared that my guarantee turned sour but with a lot of hustle points team became more consistent and finished the game with a double digit lead. I didn't really score much but I did have a lot of good defensive plays and grabbed very important offensive rebounds. Nevertheless we won our first game and who better to dedicate to my number 1.

SO after the game went with cousins to Elephant bar for a light dinner chilled, I myself didn't drink and it was just chill. Nothing to crazy or hectic. After Dinner though I ended up going to SF to pick up a desktop so my cousin could play Star craft 2

Catching Up

August 7th. So time to catch up. Really was not expecting this on my first official day back. I mean I did hear about the death of our friend Xavier on Sunday at California Adventure. So I woke up and got myself ready to go to the funeral at Holy Spirit. I really didn't want to go by myself so I had Joryl, Jake,Raquel and Mel in my car. The mass was very sad especially knowing that he was our age and still had so much to live for. It was nice seeing my other classmates from my class because I have not seen them in awhile it's just too bad that this occasion had to be the reason. SOa fter the funeral headed to the reception where can converse amongst ourselves and talk to the people we haven't seen in awhile a lot of catching up with some.

So after it was all over we really did not know what to do because we couldn't go home because of superstition. SO Dennis and Anna suggested going to Santana Row in which case we did adding Gaspar and Alex and losing Mel. So we chilled in Best Buy for awhile walked around through the container store. Did some reading at Urban Outfitters and had coffee and cupcakes at Starbucks and Kara's. We spent a good amount of time there but we were all pretty tired so we ended up just going back home. ON a side note though we did see a new trend of walking which someone has a video of but we did actually have people following us which was cool.

A Weeks Worth of Blog

After the BBQ at Jason's I came home with only a few hours left before going on vacation. So I finished packing my clothes for my weekend in Los Angeles. I was pretty tired coming home so late so the trip to L.A. was pretty quick. I actually woke up and I was at the hotel already. So this is how the rest of the days go.

Day 1
We get to the hotel before check in time so we had time to kill before going to the hotel. It was very convenient how there was a shopping center so that is where we went. We had lunch there until the Tacuyans finally came. We went to the room and got ourselves settled in. Soon after we went out again to take a walk around the shopping center. As the adults went to shop me and the younger cousins went to the bowling alley. It was pretty expensive compared to my usual bowling prices. After we were done playing it was about time to eat dinner. We ate this restaurant that had a San Fransisco theme. I had a personal pizza and a taste of what everyone else ordered. It was really good and very filling. The meal made us pretty tired which was good so we could rest for Disneyland.

Day 2
We woke up pretty early to get ready and to make it in time for the shuttle. So we headed off to Disneyland and the first thing we rode was the Buzz Light Year ride which is also a game. NExt was Space mountain but it was currently not working. We ended up watching the Michael Jackson Captain EO show which replaced Honey I shrunk the Audience. After we just rode the other rides such as; Peter Pan, Snow White, a Carousel, Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain, Nemo, Small World, Thunder Mountain, and Pirates of the Carribean. We took a break and walked around Downtown Disney. We pretty much waited around until Fantasmic was going on. The show hasn't changed and still very amazing. After a long day of walking we went back on the shuttle to go back to the hotel. When we got back to the hotel my younger cousins wanted to go to the pool and it would be a good opportunity to relax our feet. We stayed there for about an hour until they said that the pool closed an hour ago, but oh well a very productive day.

Day 3
Today was the day for California Adventure. There weren't too many rides so we didn't stay too long. The Toy story 3 ride was pretty fun. It was pretty much a better Buzz Lightyear ride. We did some of the small rides which had barely any lines and some known rides like Monster Inc and Haunted Mansion. With a break in between I went back to the hotel to get relax and go to the hot tub to rest my feet. So after I get all relaxed I head back on the shuttle to California Adventure to make it for the World of Color show. California screaming was working again so I was able to ride that. The show was simply amazing. The show was so beautiful, better than Fantasmic in my opinion.Anyways after we had dinner at this okayish buffet. So we go back to the hotel because we have to pack to go home. While we were packing the parents discussed Vegas. My uncle allowed me and my brother to go with them to Vegas. This really was not planned as I was supposed to go back to the bay on Monday.

Day 4
So after doing some laundry I have some clothes for Vegas. We had breakfast together before we went out seperate ways. We drove to my other cousin's house where we were staying for the night.We got ourselves settled and had dinner at this Asian grocery store.The day went by pretty fast and just rested for the trip to Vegas.

Day 5
On the way to Vegas stopped by some outlets and I bought some clothes to last the week. We make it to Vegas and rest for awhile. We ended up walking the strip which was really a long distance since the MGM was at one end of the strip. We walked around looked at some of the shops and ate at Pinky's Hot Dogs which was really good as they layer their hot dogs in toppings. The first day was pretty tiring the heat wasn't too bad. First day of gambling I only made $2.

Day 6
This day was pretty chill as well. Did a lot of cardio. We ended up visiting my cousin's new place which was pretty nice. We had a BBQ there and the food was good. We played some pool there and some video games before heading back to the hotel. My aunt and my kid went to watch a show so the rest of us had dinner at Hooters and did some more walking. My cousin's did some shopping and that was about it for the night. Didn't really win on the slots but oh well.

Day 7
We had lunch at the buffet today. It was ok not too amazing. We walked around the other side of of the strip but we drove in the middle this time. After touring around went to the hotel pool. It was pretty crowded and stinky. Was not the best pool experience. We then ate in the downstairs food court. After that I took the cousin's to watch a movie. We watched Salt which was a really good movie. After the movie I just finished packing so there would be nothing to worry about the next day.

Day 8
So we finally go back home the trip was long didn't make too many stops. The trip seemed pretty quick actually. Got home didn't really kick it with anyone since everyone was out. Michael did come over and we went to get food. Played some video games and that was my night back.

MISSING

So apparently I will be missing and there has been a lot of confusion of my whereabouts. Its ok though no one really cares in the long run. I'm just going to take my little vacation chilling on a beach, or snowboarding, or seeing sights and such but yeah when I do come back I'll be running around and maybe I'll go back to work if I'm found. So yeah PEACE

Quad-Vent 4 BBQ at Jason

THis was a long day of errands. Also this day I went with Michael to Great Mall to look for pants. We also went to go visit Kailani at her work, she was pretty busy though so didn't stay too long. Had to pick up pizza for my brother's kick it. Picked up my brother dropped him off at his kick it. Went home and got ready to go Jason's. Went there and it was Me, Michael, Joryl Jake Dennis, Anna,Karen, Alex, Keith,Jason, Teck Nicole, Kailani Vince and Jospeh. It was a pretty chill BBQ oysters, Burger Meat, Chicken, Bacon Wrapped Hot dogs, there were cupcakes and cookies so yes there was a lot of food. So people just played ping pong and beer pong, taboo. Really chill kick it.

Quad- Vent 3 DNBS

A usual DnBs trip. We ate and got the eat and play combo. We played some games here and there but none of us got the 1000 tickets in 1 try. We did get a total of 1100 tickets total. Oh who showed up was me Michael,Jake, Joryl, Karen, Vince, Jason, Joseph, Keith. I saw Vanessa there and sigh DAMN. It was a pretty tiring day especially because of yesterday. So I was not really too enthused about going out that night. Joryl was pretty funny though because he did get drunk so the ride home.

Quad-Vent Part 2 Shooting Range

Today's event was quite early for most. For some reason I woke up really early 8 a.m. to be exact. So I did some cleaning and getting ready before going out to the shooting range. So I leave and I pick up Michael because he had no cars and then after we headed out to Mary Ann's house. It was cool because we haven't seen her in so long because of her really busy schedule and all her traveling and such . So picked her up and still hasn't changed which is good because I like her like that. We picked up Jason because he knew where it was and we headed toward Target Masters. Denni was there already and when we got in we hand to watch a video first because we did not have real experience with a fire arm. It was fine but it kind of tripped me out and made Mary Ann nervous because the video was basically how we may either kill ourselves or each other which would prefer to avoid. So we got acquainted with the gun we were renting and having a feel for it to be comfortable.Lori soon came after when we were messing with the gun but she didn't shoot. So we had a go at in the 2 lanes we got I did not do so well unless people can die from getting shot in the shoulder. My aim was horrible but it got better. Everyone was hitting their targets so it was cool. It was really fun shooting stuff once you get the hang of it. Yeah I had one really good shot in the neck so awesome looked like a stoma.

So after some of us were hungry so we went to Great Mall. Had lunch there got food from all different places and we walked around for a bit. We walked around just to burn off what we ate. Passed a few stores here and there but had to leave because Mary Ann had to go to a meeting. So we said bye to Lori and I dropped off Jason. On the way back home we spontaneously decided to go watch Despicable Me because Mary Ann hasn't seen it yet. So we drop her off at the meeting and me and Michael got to Costco to buy the tickets and I also bought us some hot dogs. We came back for her and we watched the movie. It was the 2nd time me and Michael watched it. As tired as I was I also took in consideration of how I rarely see Mary Ann so I should probably spend whatever time I could with her. The movie still was really good and funny a future DVD/Blu Ray purchase. So yeah took Mary Ann home and me and Michael played COD till he got picked up. Today was truly an AWESOME DAY.

So after shooting some of us were hungry

Quad-Vent Part 1 Bowling

So today I woke up pretty sore but as most people know me the show must go on. Today was bowling night and not a lot of people asked about it. I was really expecting people to ask me things like 10 min before but that did not happen either. Being so tired and sore I really did not care as long as the event went on. So the people who did show up was me, Michael,Jake,Joryl,Nicole,Jason, Joseph,Vince,Roger, and Teck watched with Chris. The games started off slow just because it was a warm up game. I did not play so well but it really is nothing new. The last game we played we had a bet the team I was on consisted of Michael Nicole Roger and Myself against Joseph. Jason, Joryl, and Vince. The game started and the beginning was mostly ties until I fucked it up. We lost by double digits and we had to buy them beer. The beer was not so great and by Joryl's expression it looked as if his team lost. It was a chill bowling night nothing too hectic but it was really fun and of course competition always spices things up.

Jazz-E vs Gerry's Grill

So today was the first day of new season for the the Filcom league. I did play the previous season and it was alright. So started the day off with eating sushi for lunch and there was a lot of it. Then was trying to rest for awhile but could not do so. Before the game though I did drink half the amount of a 5 hour energy shot. The drink is ridiculous I was so juiced. Jolts of energy running around everywhere. I played pretty well nothing too impressive. I probably had an assist and couple of rebounds and just 4 points. We ended up losing that game but it was ok because there was like a lot of people on the other team and we only had 7. The next couple of games should be better as people will start to show up. After the game went home and later had dinner with the family at Hot Pot City. A lot of eating today so that just means a lot more working out to do.

Kick It At the Park

So I relly do not know how I woke up Saturday morning since my adventure from the night before. Some how I do and I already have to bring my brother to the St. Anne festival. I went with him and hung out a little but with my younger cousins but being there I felt really old. So as time went by and I waited to go to Lake Elizabeth park I just walked around the festival. When people started making their way to the park I went to go pick up Karen and her dog Toffee. First time I drove with a dog in my car weird. Oh well so we get to the park and Jason is there with Joseph. Joryl, Jake, and Keith came next with some chicken and potato wedges to go along with the soda and chips. Pretty much the whole time we just played with a football and a frisbee. There was an annoying kid though who kept riding his bike passed us. he offended Joseph and Jo actually threw the ball at his bike. We joked about doing it but did not know he would actually hit him or at least his bike, a warning shot at most. His dad was a pussy though trying to talk to me and Jake saying not to fuck around but we didn't even throw it. The dude was probably hella scared but we didn't even care anyways. So Teck, Roger, Michael and Alex showed up and we just played some more. We were there for about to 2 hours at most. It was a pretty chill kick it maybe we could do more next time. After the park I take Karen home and meet up with Michael at the St. Anne festival to get my brother but he ended up staying. So me and Michael went to borders where Alex was because he got locked out of his house and his parents were no where to be found. We ended up walking around Best Buy for a bit and finally leave Union Landing when Alex's parents replied to him. Me and Michael went to Seven Eleven for icees and Burger king for food. I ended up picking up my brother anyways and after chilled at home and played video games. Jake hit us up to go to his house to chill but I already told Vince who called earlier that I was tired. Michael was bored so we ended up going anyways. Finished some Moscato and played poker. That was pretty much it for the day.

Very productive day

So today was Friday and did not have much planned but as I said before something is always bound to happen. So this was a pretty chill do some errands kind of day. After though the previous day Michael said Nicole wanted to go Naru for dinner. So that was the main plan for the dinner later we would be heading to Michelle's B-Day kick it at Kim's. So first Michael goes to my house and then we head out to go meet up Nicole at Naru Sushi. It was fun had 2 bottles of Saki and beer each. Michael was pretty faded for the most part. So soon after we finish our meal we had time to kill before the kick it so we went to Lucky's to get some drinks. Nicole wanted us to taste this drink that had a mixture of Crown Royale, Peach Schnapps, and red bull. Nicole called it something but I do no remember so I Googled it and I found it under "Peach Bomb". So as they were getting the drinks I saw my friend Amanda and spoke to her for awhile since I haven't in awhile. Now that everything was paid for we went to go try this drink at the lake in Newark. We chilled there conversed more and drank. The drink was pretty good, really tasty. Good times good conversation. There were so many random moments such as this loner guy with an electric scooter and he just popped out of no where. Another was during conversation Michael said something inappropriate and Nicole punches Michael in the chest and it was just hilarious. So eventually a lot of time does pass by just having too much fun but we all had somewhere to be. So me and Michael head back to Hayward and go to Kim's house. It was pretty interesting a good amount of people but nothing too big. I drank so much and for the people who know me know that it took a good amount of alcohol. There was also um..." snap crackle pop" so I did that too and that was just an awesome way to end the night oh we did go to Jack-in- the-Box too. Yeah Michelle's B-day kick it at Kim's was really fun and kicking it with Nicole is always enjoyable. This day was very favorable.

Mall Hopping

So today was supposed to be a rest day. Usually for some consistent reason most of us are pretty tired by Thursday due to previous events. For me though something always usually comes up. SO it was a normal day doing some chores and refilled some of those 5 gallon water bottles and soon after I picked up my mom from work. Most of the time I was just playing video games until Michael hit me up to go with him to the mall to look for shoes. So it was like I guess moments so I went with him. We started at Valley Fair and yes this was the third time this week that I have gone. So we walk around looking for this shoes called "Toms" I guess and when I finally see it they look like house slippers but oh well I guess that's his style. Eventually we we someone wearing them and he asks wear he could get them. They had it at Zumiez and Nordstrom but were not the color he was looking for. So soon after we went to Great Mall to check their Zumiez and they did not have it at all. So as we left the mall we stopped by Michelle's work, Prolific oven. It was an interesting place, very clean. So we just chatted a bit for awhile and then went to Sonics. After Sonics Kim picks me and Michael up because she needs me to buy her alcohol. So we get it at Food Max and from there we just played video games for the rest of the night.

An interestingly long day....

So I was pretty upset the night before and really could not get much sleep. The problem with that is I had to wake up at 6:45 a.m. and by the time I finally slept it was already 4:30 a.m. Luckily enough for me I did not have to pick up my mom at work but I did have to drive to Valley Fair because my mom had to return what she bought on Monday for a different size. So after that I drove home and went straight to Jake's house to go to the gym in San Leandro. Today's work out was quite different because I just felt an extra push to do more than I usually would. In was pretty cool to use irritation to become stronger if anything I should get more mad before work outs it feels awesome. I was told that thinking about something that gets me mad would make me stronger and guess they were right haha. I probably should not have done chest again though two days in a row and then some. So after that I head home to end up just going to Newark with my mom and my brother to get a massage. Ate a little at some Chinese deli near by and then went home. I want to say the I took a nap but it was more like a 10 min eyelid close. So I almost went to DnB's by myself but I ended up bringing Michael and Vince. Won't go into any other detail but RK-Over so things will go back to normal and no special treatment and such :-p. Anyways back to this story of driving we head to DnB's. Jake and Joryl meet us up as well as Dennis and Anna and Jason We played some games and we did not get out daily 1000 tickets though. Kailani came through though and it was cool seeing her since it has been forever since we've hung out. Alex eventually showed up and to emphasize his lateness DnB's was about to close. I did order a drink so Kailani wouldn't drink by herself and we got ourselves a drink called "Black Superman" Which is a mix of some gin, rum,vodka and like something to make it a little fruity. It was alright pretty good drink and it was only $4 so it was worth it. After though we went to Denny's minus Dennis and Anna. Had more time to chill and talk about stuff but enjoyed a good meal. So we all went our separate ways and yeah the drive home by myself seemed so much longer than usual maybe its because I don't usually drive it alone or because I was driving the whole day oh well who knows hah. As tiring as this day was I would prefer all my days like this one.

Small Get Together

Well we didn't do anything too epic or spectacular but we did try to see if Melanie was working again haha.Before that I went to the gym for the first time in awhile and it felt pretty good.So yeah she wasn't there today oh well. So it was me, Michael, Dennis, Anna, Jake,Joryl, Vince, Jason, and Roger. So we ate and talked about the upcoming week.Drank about two pitchers of Blue Moon and ate some wings. Really random Andrew Manosca was there with random people and I saw Joel my cousin by marriage chilling with his homie. Really did not do much after that and just went home and chilled.

Spontaneous Sorcerer's Apprentice

Another almost dead day. Did some errands at Valley Fair and made some returns for my mom. After that dropped off my brother at the movies and went home. As time passed did not do much just watch T.V. and cooked some dinner. Michael came over and we played some Call of Duty. He randomly thought of watching Sorcerer's Apprentice and we ended up watching the move that night. We were like 12 minutes late for the showing but only like 2 min late for the actual movie to start. The movie was pretty good I liked it. Sequel most likely because of a secret ending. Yeah and it gave me a new song for my collection. One Republic- Secrets. Went home got some Taco Bell and played more COD.

Entourage Sunday

So it was sunday still have not gone to the Adobo Festival. It looks as if we were not even going out at all. Most of the day just slept in and rested up. So just to say I did something today I hit up some people to go watch the new episode of Entourage. Also to keep myself busy I cooked. I cooked some baby back ribs, mac n cheese, some mushroom shrimp and cheese concoction . FOr dessert a key lime pie. So Jason, JOryl VInce came over and we watched the episode and after we ended up watching 3 ninjas throwback movie right there.

Saturday BBQ

It looked at is of this was going to be a dead day. Did not really do too much throughout the day> Later that night we just went to Dennis' house to chill and BBQ. There were some ribs, chicken, corn and meat of such. So it was Me, Michael, Dennis, Anna, JOryl Jason and Ngan. We jsut ate some food drank some Moscato and some beers. Joryl got really drunk and we just channele surfed for about an hour. Nothing good was on so we ended up just leaving. Jason did pull a little disappearing act where he ran off to the park without telling anyone. We though he actually left and I had to drive Ngan to his house but we found him doing parkcore and such so yeah that was our random Saturday.

Interesting Friday

This was quite the Friday as a lot of epic moments were displayed. We started off with watching new released movie Inception starring Leonardo Decaprio. So it was me, Michael, Jason Fastejo and Joryl. Ryan was there with Chantal and Xavier was sitting next to us. The movie was really good and I highly recommended it. Definitely a trip worth the price ticket, we did get the early bird special. After the movie Fastejo left and the four of us had lunch at Newark buffet. Good news was though they do have craw fish again, last time I was there they didn't have it now they do. Eating maybe about 4 or 5 plates we finally leave Jason going home and the 3 of us going back to Union Landing to get Joryl's car. Before we left to go home we stopped by Tuttimelon where Jake was with Cristina aka "my .... " and we just sat there and talked a bit. It was good seeing her since I haven't in awhile but at the same time can't explain but it was more of a bittersweet moment. Being ever so tired from a hard workout from the previous day my day was not even close to finished. There was an event in which I was a creator for but I was not feeling too well that I may actually have backed out. As time passed though I thought to myself of how I have to go regardless of how unwell I was just because it is my reputation to not let others down. So Heading over to Mylene's birthday at Infusion Lounge. So it was me Michael, Jake, Dennis, Anna, and Gaspar. We packed in my car so we wouldn't have to pay for toll twice. So we got there and before actually getting in the rule was for every guy has to to be paired with a girl and vice versa. So we did have to find girls since our ratio was horrible. After passing through some foreign girls we eventually get in. The place was pretty cool but for the longest time we were not able to find Mylene and her party. We have a couple of drinks just to chill having a good time. Eventually we bump into her party and there was Mylene the b-day girl,Marjorie, Arnel, and Kevin and Arvin from who I know. From what I now know they were pretty messed up already and with that did not stay in the lounge too long. They were not the only people messed up though. Michael had a cookie and was not feeling well at all as he did dance for a bit and sat down for the rest of the night. The 5 of us enjoyed the rest of the night and as we left Michael was with Gaspar already and he mentioned how the homelss felt bad for Michael the way he was looking. On the way back to the car Michael yacked profusely, fluid was coming out of his mouth like a geyser. We eventually get back to the car and even start a slight ruckus as we at the moment lost possession of our parking ticket. Eventually we found it and made our way back home Dennis being the first to get dropped off yacked before entering his house. Next was Gaspar who was fine and then Jake who was also Ok. Michael was doing better a little more functional but was able to make it to his door. Anna on the other hand threw up so much for such a small girl. As she threw away her bag of yack she ended up wandering the opposite neighborhood and when I went to get her and saying what are you doing she goes "Where's my house?" and I bring her back to her place. Driving home was interesting a lot happened today I had a lot of fun but on the lonely drive back I could only focus about one of the many things that happened that day. Sigh I wish I was more important to....

Just a really long Day

So this blog actually makes me caught up in current events in what has been going on for the last couple of days. This was an ever so tiring day as for one thing I only had 2 and half hours of sleep. So I bring my mom to work and when I get home I just can't go back to sleep. So I play some video games as I wait for my brother and my cousins to come so we could pick up my brother's laptop as well as have lunch after. As soon as we got the lap top went to the La Vics in Hayward. After we went back home and I took my time and got ready to go meet up with Jake to go to the gym. After working out cleaned up and went to pick up my mom. We went to Washington and some banks picked up some food as well. Head back home for awhile while my mom and Shanli got manicure and pedicures. For about an hour picked them up and then headed over to great mall to make some returns and grab dinner. It does not seem like I did much but I pretty much drove the whole day and it was pretty hot but yeah all caught up now.

All Good day

So this was another DNBS night but before that, of course theres always errands to do. Not too much hassle but I practically just brought my brother to my cousin's house and returned some games. After that I met up with my boothang who I have not seen since last Tuesday and oh how I miss her so.... haha. SO we met at Tapex Union City and she was waiting and I had to get her another drink because she finished hers already. We talked and caught up since we haven't seen in each other in awhile and she obviously at least somewhat missed me since she hit me up. So yeah we again left each others side and went home. So this is when I have to go and get ready to go out again. So since she hit me up to go out I thought I should return the favor and bring her along. So I picker her up and we went to DnBs to meet up with Joryl, Jake, Michael, and Jason. Who was also there was Carl and Mark. The guys were playing random games getting tickets and like last week, but not Joryl, Vince got the green light 1000 tickets from the giant wheel when he was with Jake and this time it was more exciting than when Joryl did and we were confused. Vince won a lot of tickets and use a good amount to buy candy and the rest went to the community card which we have about 5ooo+ now. Didn't really play too much as well as drink since the drinks were really weak. I did get to order my Mac and cheese though cause yeah my boo was there. Anyways I guess her and alcohol do not mix well as she was not feeling well. So I stayed with for the rest of the night and she even vomited but I brought her to the bathroom in time. We got some air and just hung out. We did eventually go back in and just took it slow didn't play too much just in case and yeah just sat around but that's OK. Everyone else had fun so that's good and yeah were supposed to go to Jack-n-the Box but she was just not up for it and I wasn't really too hungry either so best I just take her home to rest. Yet again another fun DNBs night.

Random Tuesday Wings and Beach?

So it was Tuesday meaning that there was 50cent wing at smoke-eaters located in San Jose. So yeah it was Me, Vince, Joryl, Jason, Joseph, Dennis and Anna also there were two of Vince's co-workers Nathan and Ashley. So the seven of us split 100 wings which wasn't too bad since there was seven of us but the food really good and really cheap. The four flavors we had were Teriyaki ,Thai Zing, Honey BBQ, and Spicy Garlic and also a basket of fries. Total was about $63.00. Soon after we went back home and Vince took me Joe, and Jason to go to the beach with Regie's friends which I knew some already like Manny, Mark, Alan and other people that I used to play ball with. SO yeah we basically just chilled in the sand and ran around. It was freezing though we weren't really ready for it so I was just in a shirt and jeans no sweater at all. Vince got a ticket for bad parking I mean not bad parking but not the right place. It didn't cost too much about $23. So soon after the trip home was ever so adventurous. We went through detour and detour as so much construction going on it became very irritating but eventually we finally made it back home and that was out Tuesday.

Double Lunch

So today was a little tiring especially from the drinks that actually had alcohol in it. Just saying that because usually most of the mixed drinks we get are pretty weak. The day does have to go on though. So before Raquel went back to Irvine I had lunch with her at this deli place, Joaquin's Deli I believe. It was really good there had myself a pastrami sandwich and Raquel had a chicken pesto sandwich. Yeah it was a good lunch had good quality time with one of my besties before she left but yeah I do appreciate hanging out with her more on an individual level rather with a lot of people. So after I dropped off Raquel I had to pick up my brother and ended up eating lunch at dragon house in Union City with my cousins. The food was alright but the sandwich had was bomb.

Lounging At Mink

Saturday was pretty interesting as there were options to go out yet did not really choose to go out.

Sunday was quite interesting as I was still pretty tired from the days before regardless of how long I slept. What made the day interesting was that I said I was going to go with Vince to Daily City to go to this Aid Cause event I think it was. So I was really tired but I still went out. Previously that day I went to go get Sushi and went to some random car show which was practically a trap set by cops haha. Oh well along with the story I did end up going to Daily City with Vince which was not a completely bad idea. It was pretty fun met up with Vince's homegirl Fran. Drinks were actually pretty strong and its been awhile since I have actually had a strong cocktail. I could possibly even say I may be faded. Soon after though it was not really cracking but it was chill it did end up ending early though. Soon after went to Jolibee and then finally went back home. It was a fun night good experience being out again but yeah it was more to chill not for like getting messed up.

For all I can tell right now Thursday was a rest day but only because no one wanted to go. So most of us stayed home but my LOML went to Sabor for her girl's b-day which is fine with me because I totally trust her completely. So yeah it was pretty much a rest day but it's ok because we had to wake up early in the morning.

So going into Friday we watched the early bird special for Despicable Me. So it was me Jake Joryl Vince Jason and Festejo. Really good movie and I recommend it highly. No spoilers or anything. SO after the movie we chilled at Borders fo awhile because Joryl needed a book for an exam in which he is preparing for. After that we met up with Raquel and had Lunch at La Vics in Hayward. After we ate shot some hoops around my court and went in and finished Pineapple Express. After that I had to do some errands . As the night went on I really had an urge to go out I was pretty upset about something and felt I should really go out haha. So we ended up at hooter and Melanie was not there but our waitress did have the face of Asa Akira which was awesome. Had about 3 pitchers before heading out to Wal*Mart. Something may have happened because of a misunderstanding. Some one thought we may have said N**** Alert and it offend some people there but we really did not say anything. Not that stupid haha. So Vince ended up meeting me Joryl Jake and Dennis at my house and we just watched Ninja Assassin. So yeah we ended up doing quite a lot.

MIchael Returns

So as Alex leaves Michael returns not Kwek cause I never call Kwek Michael. So yeah Michael comes home from San Diego and at first it did not look as if anything was going to be happening that night. As my previous post though did state that Wednesday will officially become DNB Wednesday. So that is what we did. So it was me Joryl Jake Michael Dennis Anna and I think Jason was there too. It was not cracking as much as it was the previous week but it was way more fun as we actually did play games. Joryl was even able to win 1000 tickets on his first try at some wheel game. We were not really too excited about the tickets but it was just because we did not realize what had happened. Nevertheless though it was a very entertaining night.

Alex's Birthday

So can't remember too well what happened on Monday so might as well move on to a more eventful day. Tuesday July 6th Alex's birthday. We have planned this for quite awhile nothing too big just a dinner at Hooters which seems to be the spot to celebrate most of the time. So I picked up Kim, and Karen (my flame) and then as we got to Hooters Vince was already there as well as Lori and Michelle. Soon after Alex arrived with Jake, Joryl, Raquel and Keith and as follows Jason, Joey, Dennis Anna and finally Roger. We enjoyed our food and Alex was already faded from his pre-game at his house. He did get fooled by our waitress when she already told us her name she gave a him a fake and got a fake number at least he tried. Too bad Abbey Gonzalez isn't real haha but Melanie is like "Oh My GOD" haha. SO after his failure some pictures were taken to the point were we had to go somewhere else. So what ended up happening is we went to Dirty Bird Lounge. So most of us met up there for the exception of Kim and Michelle her still underage. Had some drinks there Alex was still not to the point of yacking but of course I had get the job done. We had a freebie drink just because it was his birthday but I had to hit him hard to finish the job. I may have gone overboard even can say it was an overkill but hit him with not a single but a Double Beautiful. Felt kind of bad but so I took it with him. After that it was game over. Karen drove me back to her house and I drove myself. As I was on my way home from my boo's place and Jake calls me saying that my record stays perfect. To watch my accomplishment instead of going home I head over to Twin Bridges park. Where I see Alex wobbling all over the place. It was quite awhile but I took care of guy it was my fault. I had to pick him from the floor so many times but eventually we were able to bring him to the car.

Fireworks the family kind

July 4th
This was a day which mostly consisted of eating and a lot of it. I think I may have either went sushi or dim sum but I ate more later that day. With about an hour or two went over to my cousin's house the Tacuyan house and we had a barbecue. So many oysters and hot dogs and burgers, potato salad, corn just so much food. Yeah it did seem though for the festivities we were not really into it as much as we were earlier. Maybe if had like the cool fireworks which are basically the illegal ones haha. When people asked if I was doing fireworks my main reply was if the neighbors do it. But yeah that was pretty much it but we did make 4th of July seem more like Halloween. We watch horror movies all day not good ones but horror movies nonetheless. We watch The Unborn Saw I have no Idea what number I just know I sadly had to watch Meagan Good die twice sigh and watched Scream 3. That was pretty much my 4th of July.

Short story short Poker Game

So to continue from the night before we just met up at Vinces place and played a full game of poker. It did not take as long asd other poker games as it was only me Alex Jason Vince and Joryl. Jake came after but did not play. I do not remember the order of the eliminations but I know I did not win haha. Oh well there really isn't much to tell so that's it for that day to all I remember.

Change of Plans Friday

July 2,2010
So this was supposed to be our clubbing and or lounging day. As the day went on though we became more as a group at most became very lazy and did not want to be in the clubbing scene at least not that night. So what I decided to do instead so more people can come out is to have a dinner and decide from there where we should go after. So using yelp I decide that we should have dinner at Buffalo Bill's Brewery. So who went was myself, Karen, (my better half), Jake,Joryl,Gaspar Jennalyn, Alex and Vince. By the way though on the way there Vince almost got into an accident right in front of us but he's o.k. ha-ha it was pretty interesting seeing it. So we had our meal and which was pretty good I had meat lover's type pizza and Karen had a pastrami sandwich and we switched so I had something else to try. We all had this blueberry beer which was not too bad pretty good though. So after dinner the decision was either to go to TGIF and continue drinking or to go Blaze Hookah which was not too far. For some reason the vote went a little lop sided towards TGIF which was not what I was hoping for but why bring people to a place where they do not want to go. So we went to TGIF lost Jennalyn along the way and then Dennis and Anna met up with us. After that we went to Tuttimelon for a late dessert. We were thinking of going to Karaoke but another change of plans as we were too tired and instead played a quick game of poker. Vince ended up winning and eventually we just went home but yeah hanging out nowadays is always subject to change.

DNB Wednesday

June 30th Super Late
Well as much as could remember since I have not updated in quite awhile. For some strange reason taking the time to think about it I kind of remember mostly everything that happened within the last two weeks which is pretty difficult with much going on. So jake wanted to go to DNB's for a reason I had know idea but knowing Jake there sometimes a reason for his actions. So the people who went were myself, Karen (my Beau) Jake,Joryl,Raquel,Vince, Lori,Jason, Joseph,and Dennis and Anna. Yeah Jake was experimenting with his new found hobby of making bets oh well to that but other recognizable faces which were there were, Kristalyn, Megan, and Marelie. For some reason I felt like I may b forgetting someone ugh but oh well don't want to think about it right now. Yeah it was fun as usual didn't play too many games but I did seem unbeatable at the moment winning at the games I played except for a game of air hockey when I played Raquel I did make a come back but it was not enough to get the win. Oh well can't win them all but yeah it does seem that DNB Wednesday is going to be a regular occurrence.

Realization of Many

WARNING!!! : For those who know how I am this may be nothing new to you. For new readers do not have the first idea this may be about you, but if you do feel targeted even though I am speaking of a general public maybe you should grow up. So please try to take no offense as these are my own personal experiences as well as my thoughts.


So I have kept a lot of anger within myself for the better of the people who surround me on a daily basis, but with recent events I feel I should not bottle these feelings anymore as it my cause a major mental meltdown for myself in the future.

First topic I would like to talk about which there is no particular order is the fact in which some say I may care way too much. It is difficult for me to avoid this taking a leadership role within my group. I am the person who plans out the events with that I have to invite people, have good time management figure out what the group wants to do as a whole. When the even happens I get these last minute calls for time, transportation, anything after, when the event will be done, a lot of questions that should have been answered before the event and also last minute bailing for reasons which most are not good enough to be even called excuses. Back to the topic I do a lot I take care of my friends, I put them 1st before myself always, figuring out what they want to do not what I want to do, making sure they enjoy themselves before I even have a chance to grin.
So leading to something which caught me off guard. Being called "SELFISH" hmm selfish really me selfish. There are some people who see my generosity and say that I care too much and sometimes I should think of myself but with normal behavior it has become to difficult to have that mindset which confuses me on so many levels being called "SELFISH". Hearing that or reading that wanted to make me think of myself before others but as I mentioned it just is not in my nature to do so. There are others in which I know are more relevant to the word selfish than myslef and with the burden that's put upon myself I would think people once in awhile can lighten the load for me but so far none. So with my nature I made a compromise to myself which is not to change my habits but in doing so DO NOT EXPECT ANYTHING FROM OTHERS as it may only lead to my disappointment. It does suck though to have that mindset yet being someone who would be the first to help out and or do what I can to within my power to help the situation.

Which leads to my next topic of feeling used. This is the reason why some may feel I should be more selective with the aid in which I provide for certain individuals. As others feel that some people arr undeserving of my attention as well as help; meaning that if ever a time in which tables would turn they would be nowhere to be found. With that goes to how I should not expect anything from others. It is quite interesting how certain people go to me only when they need something ranging from financial funds all the way through to someone they can find comfort in. Yet on a daily basis their consistency of being available decreases drastically until they have a certain need to be fulfilled yet again and for some I may be the first option and as my weakness once again shows. I will be there and some may take advantage of this which is the reason why it is my weakness. In the long run this will become a bad habit of being easily stepped on but hopefully my good deeds will be rewarded. For now though people who need me an leave me I will still help but they will slowly just become a distant memory of someone who I was JUST ACQUAINTED to.

Next I would like to talk about something in which I felt I would never discuss. As time has gone I have experienced a lot. I have done many things that involves being 21 when I was 15-16 years old. With that I have learned a lot as well as seen a lot. As I thought might happen did happen. With doing so much when I was younger doing them now does not really intrigue me not one bit. Some say I just grew up to fast. With that I feel bad that I do not share the same enthusiasm to go clubs and such. What irritates me though is when people try to force it upon myself and or others to go to something we don't want to. To go along with the using of people these people who force others to go are ever so ignorant, inconsiderate, and SELFISH. The only reason they want others to go is so they could get a free ride and get messed up and or to bum off drinks from the others in which they bring. The difference in what I do is I take responsibility of others as well as I do what others want to do. Another thing about these late night outings and how I feel more mature is, I do not have to drink, I do not have to smoke to have fun. If its there its there if its not I won't complain about it not being there. I could do without the substances. I've learned to appreciate the time with the people I care about rather what I do with those people. A show which I watch showed me a more deeper meaning with people wanting to go get wasted and such. The people who have this urge or a need to go out and club and such only show one thing; which is they find no satisfaction in the life they have, a sense of being incomplete and have to look at intoxication as their temporary escape. I have noticed with the lack of the "night life" I am actually feeling like a happier person and maybe because I do not need in my lifestyle. Every once in awhile would be okay but I would never want to be in a state where I need to go out to get messed up and where it is necessary for me to go out to be a happy.

Finally at least for now the last thing I want to talk about which got me upset is my relationship choices. Talking about it with people in my previous years my choice in girls were pretty up there and then I became more open to other girls. For some reason being less picky actually made some people think "wow really?" "I would not think her" and in a way make me actually look hmm desperate. I actually think it's pretty funny but it does feel good to hear so many times "I could do better" "I could do better" "oh not her she doesn't deserve it". Some good phrases to hear once and awhile. What does this have to do with my anger well, I have made it clear to myself in a short way that if I want a girl who looks good I have to make myself look good as well its only fair right. So looking back on these girls that I have taken care of and looked after yet they do not see me as potential boyfriend material pretty much irks me. It makes it seem like they are better than me or who they talk to is better than me and in reality they aren't even close to my level pretty much out of my league. So it is pretty discouraging being rejected by girls that look for guys that will never measure up to me. So my goal is to focus and work on myself and find a girl who is actually worthy. The reason I was pretty upset with this topic is because I felt I may have been regressing to past (failed attempt at a relationship) rejections in which I should know by now that if they did not see all I have given to them or the sacrifices I made for them they OBVIOUSLY do not deserve any of me. I lost my way for a bit considering another attempt at failure but remembered that I do not and or ever need to go back to that because with my commitment I OBVIOUSLY deserve someone better.

So yeah actually ended on a somewhat of light note as well as my inspiration to become better and yeah this actually made me feel better after dealing with such self- absorbed and inconsiderate people. Hopefully I truly hope I do not have to talk about any of these topics again.

Gym Mad Fish, and BBQ

This was a pretty chill day. Started off with the usual working out with Jake at 24 hr Fitness. After went home and really did not think anything would be going on for me that day but some things did come up.First thing that came up was after I took a shower I was talking to Karen and we ended up going out (on a date) haha just kidding. We went to go eat a late lunch during Happy Hour at Little Mad Fish at automall. So yeah we had four rolls; Crunch, Fire Dragon, Rainbow and something else that had a weird after taste but it was all good. YEah after we ate we went home and I was supposed to go to a BBQ but no one called so I tried to sleep but it really did not do me any good. Staying home for most the day I get a text about the BBQ and after buying my brother food and getting through an accident sight I end up at Jesse's house but J.R. and Ray were leaving because they were already tired. So it was me Jesse Roni Mark and Mark's homeboy Eugene and we just watched Hot Tub Time Machine a very funny movie. I ate what was left of the food and soon after just went home and finally went to bed or played video games and then went to bed. The highlight of this day though was Little Mad Fish with my Facebook girlfriend hahah.

Bowling on a Monday

This would I have to say would be the most hectic day and ever so tiring day of the week. So I woke up and got ready to go to the gym with Jake around 12 o'clock. We worked out for about 3 hours or so. Working out doing some cardiovascular exercises as well as chest and abdominal. After on the way home Karen hits me up to go to Tuttimelon. I hang out with her for about 30 or so minutes before heading home. I get home to see Aaron and Roni getting ready to play basketball as they tell me that they are going to play in a few minutes, so I still have not taken a shower from the gym. So I too get ready to play basketball at the park on Industrial. We played for about 2 hours and by then I should have been home getting ready to go bowling. So with my cousin's lagging I call Alex to pick me up to drop me off at home and from there I would finally take a shower about 5 minutes though. Then after went o go pick up Kim and then Alex and then Michelle and finally head out to bowling. It was ridiculous how many people were there at least 21+ people. The 21 + people who attended were, Me, Karen, Kim, Michelle, Alex, Raquel,Jake, Joryl, Keith, Jason, Teck , Festejo, his Girlfriend, Vince, Arvin, Jospeh, Roger, Dennis, Anna, Kevin, and Chris. Ok never mind maybe it was only 21. It seemed like there were more oh well. It was fun I was pretty tired though I had a rough day. So much betting was going on it may be the new thing for this summer. Some of those bets resulted in me losing to Jake because I could not throw the bowl 25mph and Alex beat Jason who is really good in bowling.After bowling we just loitered around the arcade some what bopper status then finally get to go home which was awesome.

Kimmy's Liberal Art Graduation Party

So I forgot to talk about this before bowling because it was before bowling. So It was Kim's graduation party which I showed up pretty late too because I had find someone to go with me and VInce got off work at like 10:30 p.m. and apparently her party started at 7 which is probably why the prawns were all gone sigh. Oh well it was pretty fun there a different variety of people, mostly youngin's but its cool. It was just me Vince and Kevin drinking all the alcohol and Kevin got really drunk or faded like whoa. Met some cool people there and saw some crazy stuff that night like whip cream body shots? and a porch swing broke but yeah its been awhile since I've been at that house. Good times though but there was a lot of cleaning to be done which I helped out with .

Friday BBQ

So yeah the previous post was about starting slow but the next day was already too epic. I think I should just list the people who were there right now just to get it out of the way. Jason of course, Joryl, Raquel, Lori, Teck, Jennalyn, Hazel, Marjorie, Arnel, Roanne, Mylene, Alex, Alex's friend Stephanie, Vince, Roger, Joseph,Kevin,and Festejo. The late arrivals were Dennis, Anna, Regie, Karen, Keith, and Joey. Also on a side note the people I did not know 5 of Jason and Tecks friends. I really hope I did not forget anyone or I would feel bad. So we played our usual games of beer pong and chandelier and flip cup. Played some physical games like tug of war which me n my partner Joe demolished in. Video of some memorable moments from the BBQ can be seen at youtube.com/itsjustrj should be able to. It was a very chill night some new people to hang out with here and there hopefully we can see more of them in upcoming events. The night ended kind of early probably did too much in a short amount of time. Hung out at Denny's for a little bit but cut out very quickly. I would go into more detail of some of the things that happened that night but most of it can be seen in clips on my youtube account that I mentioned earlier but here is a picture with some of the new people that came through.

Waiting in Line Start off slow with a Movie NIght

So I forgot to mention something that happened before watching the movie that day. I decided to go and be a good friend and stand in line with Alex to get the iPhone 4 which in my opinion is not that impressive. It is like square haha and yeah nothing too special. The funny thing is I might get one when I upgrade but I would not wait in such a ridiculous line. I mean thinking about the lines I used to stay in for shoes could be similar to an extent but the difference is that phone will always be there andthe price determined by memory. The shoes I waited for were either limited or the price would increase soon after. Back to the story though it was pretty sad seeing these people who have waited for so long to get this phone. I understand the people who sold their phones while they were still in demand at a good price to get this phone. Still though celebrating when a person gets to go in sad much. What I truly disliked is how people would set up there phones in the store and record the line really ignorant stupid ass fuckers. So where in the line for about 5 or so hours till we get the phone. The only good thing about it was the girl next ot us looked like London Keyes.

So I had some days of rest but there were already things to be planned and organized. Nothing to big to start off the return. So we did something simple so people bailed but it was ok it worked out for the best. So it was me Vince, Jason, Joryl and Ngan. We watched Toy Story 3 and yes I know I've seen it already but it is really a good movie. Nothing more to say to that we watched than cut out basically. Like I said started off slow.

Vegas day 4 of 4 the Departure

So basically this was the aftermath of our trip. Pretty tired practically no energy left. We just ended up chilling at the Caesar's Palace pool just to cool off and have a recap on the weekend. We did go to this 21 and up section where there were topless chicks walking around us so it was a good view while we just relaxed in the water. After that we had one more attempt to win at craps, Me Keith and Jake but still no luck at all. So coming home with no winning what so ever. So we finally end up leaving the place heading to the airport finding out we have a delayed flight. About two hours. We chilled talked about some mistakes we made during the trip and yeah it was still fun regardless of the issues which transpired. So getting back home only meant one thing for me. For as much as I wanted to retire from the whole planning thing for that to happen I would have to disconnect myself from the world.

Vegas 3 (part 2) of 4

So out of the drama mode now the four left and it was just Jake, Vince, Keith and myself. We took a quick rest and ate at this very very good buffet at the Encore hotel. So goo but bad timing because of our alcohol consumption. So we could not consume a lot. We waited for Vince's cousin Phil to arrive and as we did that is when the night truly started. Some shots of privilege to go around and out and about we went. A lot of things can not be really be spoken for and there really is not any pictures to prove anything of the sort. All that was truly remembered was a very good time as well as getting kicked out of two different places and coming back to the room at sun rise. Wish I could go into detail but I won't oh well almost time to go home.

Vegas Day 3 ( part 1) of 4

So this was the most drama and fun filled exciting day out of all the days in Vegas. Started off very subtle continuing from the night before, I did not sleep at all since there was a slight dispute over the bed. Instead like a good friend or person I did some room work threw away a lot of garbage and took care of the dishes but before all of that I went on a solo trip to the gym. Used about every machine there got a good work out from it pretty sore. After that I did the cleaning as mentioned and then began to pack since we were checking out that day. I felt really good at the time without any sleep at all and after I fnished packing I went to get people breakfast. So i got a lot of cardio done that morning and I felt fresh. Everyone eventually woke up and we went to go to our new room at Treasure Island not as big but would supposedly do the job. Since a majority of the people were leaving this was our gambling day before all the ridiculous drama began. So we pretty much lost except for Raquel who came up a bill. Everyone was pretty tired and wanted to go back to the room but Raquel wanted to go meet up with Karen and Trish to go sight seeing I guess. Which did not happen cause Trish was not feeling well. So back at the room I got really bored because everyone was sleeping so I went off on my own for a bit around the casino some cute girls here and there. Went back up and no one really slept the just talked for awhile and Raquel woke up and need to go to her car so I went with her. We chatted for a but and headed back to the room and all hell broke loose from there.Trish lost her phone so Raquel lended hers but Raquel had to use her phone and when she got it she noticed someone was talking shit about her on her phone. So she reacted but previous to this event we find out that they Alex, Karen, Raquel and Trish have to leave as soon as possible because Trish's brother was dying. There was a lot of screaming and crying but for some reason we ended having a group picture. This already a long post so the night time will be in the next.
