Today's Blog


this is will be the blog for the day, seeing as how posting dates are kinda screwy cause i update at 1am or whatever. this is the blog for sunday.

woke up in vallejo cause we were too tired to drive back to lafayette last night. slept on the couch with liza, and wow was it cold. i slept in my clothes/jacket that i wore all around town. i only had a small thin blanket and stacked pillows to keep me warm. liza took the warmer blanket =[ headed back to lafayette and had some bomb ass breakfast (again). ryan's aunt michelle called them dutch babies.. or dutch pancakes. pretty much it was a warm crusted pancake baked in the oven that somehow forms a massive bowl. it was amazing. after breakfast talking about engineering and the autralia open, we headed back to slo.

thank you liza for picking me/dropping me off


the drive back was alright, really tiring. could tell tien was hating it. but once we stopped to go pee everyone was awake and lively again, well for the most part. ahhah got back and finally showered. felt gross not showering after being in downtown all day. after that was Superbowl time. went to visit Daniel down stairs and just hung out for a bit. came back up to the room cause rex was making famous garlic chicken, sorry no pictures on that. was way too hungry to think about taking a picture.

at the gas station, for some reason there were two 76's right across
the street from each other. with price differentiation of 2 cents


self timer ftw


self timer ftl .. the camera fell LOL


so on the news theres some fiasco about micheal phelps getting caught smoking weed... so fucking what?! what does that say about people who smoke pot? fucking nothing. maybe the fact that they be fucking insanely successful and win a million gold medals. or maybe even become the first black president? in obama's book he says "the point was to inhale"


its kinda weird cause i dont think i have any homework, so i'm just sitting here. doing nothing. thats what i've been doing, just sitting. hahah its kinda nice. but we'll watch it bite me in the ass tomorrow when classes roll up. talked to sam today, was pretty dope. this is how our conversation went:

-me 'one in three kids are overweight, but you're just fucking gigantic. you're like 1 in 1000
-sam "I HATE YOU. i dont want to be your brother anymore"
-me 'its ok man, maybe you should try and lose some weight first, and then maybe we can be brothers again.

lol love my brother man.

last summer, bomb beach day. look at his fatass, i bet
that was his 5th skwer already


sam blends right in


new art installment in our apt


Oh Yeah

blog will be posted later tonight. for now, enjoy

Blog for January 30

//written on word and imported//

For some reason, we went to sleep at like 330 am… which was definitely a bad idea. Had a quiz in chem… which was retarded cause he was pretty much reviewing for the quiz, but of course I was asleep.. so I couldn’t answer two of the three questions. One of the questions asked ‘how many photons are in the given blah blah light. My answer “many.”

kicking it at the UU with isa


Went back to the UU and just kicked it. Hung out with isa and logan. Sat for an hour before my phys midterm. Hahah logan was reading a book that was about japan after WWII, looked really interesting. I just sat and chilled with isa for a bit, then just relaxed. Got a call from kuya franklin saying that he couldn’t get me the tickets to the pacqiuao match… the 150$ tickets were sold out….. so instead he got me the 500$ ones. O.O WTF.

naked bare breeze

i dont know what he's doing


Hahah may 2nd will be the shit. By then I’ll have my id. It’ll be so much fun, gambling and drinking with my dad and brother… ahh that’ll be the shit.

Took my physics midterm, wasn’t too bad, but for some reason I still have a crappy feeling about it. Oh well. Fuck it.. its over… walked outside and chatted with tony danova. went back to the apt, did my laundry.. shit there was so much, had to do three loads. Got back and played COD5 again with michelle.. shit that game is getting super addicting.

my laundry, and rex

left the room in a mess

So we got our shit together and headed for the YAY ARRRREEEA.. road trip was cool. Stopped at arbys… I was hungry… yeah.. …. Yea. I was very hungry. Got 4 roast beef sandwiches, fries, and a drink….like I said I was hungry..

fuck yeah

told ya.

Now we are at ryan’s uncles place in Lafayette… wow this totally beats staying in berk, no offense to Kenny and bryan, but this place is super nice… like, really nice. Just watching some man vs wild, discovery channel. OMG THERES A FUCKING SPIDER ON THE TV. WHY ARE WE WATCHING A SEGMENT ON TARANTULAS?! AND WHY IS THE TV FUCKING 50INCHES IN HD?! SO UNNECESSARY WTFWT.. yeah so I can’t look up, cause there’s a 50inch tarantula on the tv.

ryan's uncle's place in lafayette

we're baller

.. =[ knew it was going to be cold here, but wow, its below 70 degrees here… wtf? Lol we’re so spoiled.. oh well. All day in SF tomorrow.. shopping, walking around, museum maybe.. just a chill kickback/retreat with the roommates.

This will be a fun weekend.

Yay Area

first off i apologize for the no post yesterday. i will update and edit so it makes sense sequentially. further more, i must warn you that the following posts will have a million pictures.. well not a million, but as much as blogspot allows me to put up.. this post is long.. long cat long.

**if you see a picture you like, click on it. all the pictures come out great in full res**



we woke up to an awesome breakfast that ryan's uncle made us. spam, eggs, fried rice (siniaag to be exact), and sausage. took a shower and headed off to the bart station. lafayette, exit powell. we arrived around 1030. headed to wells fargo where justin was hit on by the worker. 'did you want me to help you setting up your checkings acccount? well ok, here's my card, feel free to call me." LOL hahahha.

aye tien, playing bubble breaker?

chillin on the bart, yellow line towards SFO, exit powell.


passed by the LV store. as you all know, they're getting
redone with new artists and shit. gotta admit, looks pretty dope


'no one mourns the wiiiicked!!"


after that we headed to HUF. damn didnt know they had a store in downtown.. but damn, pretty dope, 40% off. got two shirts for 30$. they have the vic-firth (drum sticks/head/mallet/whatever) font so i got one for shadd too. we then proceeded with our hypebeast conquest to THSF. POST. yeah 50% everything in the store, but couldn't find anything i really liked. the workers were complete douche's, telling us not to touch the clothes cause they had to fold them again. fags. and oh, i sat on a glass casing and almost broke it. yeah. even better.

THSF 50% everything. not bad.


so now we come to one of the main points in our agenda, visit the museum of modern art. SFMOMA. this was the shit. i do not regret this AT ALL. i<3sfmoma

first thing you see when you walk in sfmoma.


of course, everything is baller



i think this might be default pic worthy.


cool wall pattern in one of the rooms.


i stick out like a sore thumb... or like a twister board. either one


oil on canvas. no idea how. this was just awesome


this was the best thing there. its called the 1000journal project. blank journals,
they give you pens, markers, magazines, scissors... anything you want. you make your
own entry. thousands of entries. by far the coolest thing we saw or did there.

'hey rex, can you hear me?' .. 'OH YEEAAH"


legit


we did a lot of walking at SFMOMA, so to relax, we went across to the street, which i will now call the "3rd St Cut" this place was perfect. a small garden-ish area surrounded by fountains and wonderful architecture. places to sit or lay, and just relax. the falling water drowned out the normal sounds of a busy city, which made it a nice little getaaway. we spent a good hour just chilling here. me and benedicto kicked it. tien and cayabyab sketched.

3rd street cut


my view while i rested


the water was awesome.


random

..poly canyon?!?


next on the agenda was for tien to buy a bag from CHROME... expected cost? $200. yeah. lol. so we walked for a good while to 4th st and brannen to find the chrome store. they sell messenger bags and any other bags that you can throw on a messenger. bike porn galore. no doubt. good thing the bags were 40% off. ohh yeaaa babbyy.



the entrance was pretty sick


there were a SHITload of bags. tien jizzed his pants.


in the middle of the store. suspended and welded together


went to another bike shop, this bike was super clean


by the time we were done with chrome, our legs started giving out. so we went back to powell and ate at the mall. went to urban, h&m, forever21 (heritage.. lol), and just headed back to lafayette. we were pretty tired.. on the bart ride back, tien helped these old asian ladies find their exit. soooo kind. hahah

long day. long ride back.


got back 'hella' tired and ko'd. then liza came to scoop me up and take me to vallejo. we ate at a chinese place called Princess Garden. nothing like china town, but still pretty good. had a good dinner which leads me to where i currently am right now at liza's cousin's place in vallejo.

the usual, pan friend noodles with crispy chicken


beef and tomato soup on the house


if you somehow read the entire entry in one sitting without jabbing your eyes out with ice cream scoopers drenched in hot sauce, then kudos to you. i took a shitload more pictures than this. i am sorry if you were overwhelmed with text/pictures. but it was fun. hope you enjoyed. i know i did.

Canon SD 1100



oh, since this happened this morning at around 2am, i guess it goes in today's blog. couldnt sleep cause the wind was so loud. thats what we get for living in the canyon. so tien was hungry. and of course had to make our new classic dirty dogs.


hot dogs wrapped in bacon. not quite the new craze online where its 4lbs of bacon wrapped in sausage, but this isn't minus 30years of our life... maybe just minus 3years but its all good


i woke up an hour late for csc, didn't really give a shit. i have dope group members. after that, had some lunch with jazzy and edwin. went to backstage. haha edwin's salad was only 1$ cheaper than my salad+pizza+soda. he put like bricks of tomato and beans in that shit to make it super heavy. i had a slice of bbq pizza, salad, and cup of dr pepper. cant go wrong.



jazzy was picking her nose.. i mean putting on chapstick


everyone enjoying their well deserved food.


then i went to bishops study lounge. forreal, if you ever need to get work done, need some quiet time, or just need some sleep. go there. perfect place. i see the same people there, some are always knocked out. its a great place. kicked it there for a bit, read, and took a light nap. after a bit, tien gave me a call and we hung out outside:


of course, the bike is always lookin fresh


bike lookin fresh, don't know if i can say the same about justtien.. thats just really.. yeah



lets see... then i went to physics, hung out. went to english and took my grammar quiz. got back to the place and i had the weirdest combo of foods. siapo, carrots, and a hot dog... yea.. i don't know whats up with that, but i guess its college. gotta do what you gotta do. i had a mean stomach ache after and really felt like throwing up. you should definitely try it


by then i was super tired, took a nap. the roommates all went to farmer's market, which i bet was fun =[, but i stayed behind and 'studied' when in fact i was suckered into going to Michelle's for some bomb ass pho and COD5. nazi zombies was 'hella' fun according to all the yay-area people over there. met two new people, Kimberley and Glen. pretty cool people. but wow. the most legit Asian food in slo. is corralitos 306.. 2nd best eatery to corralitos 308.

i guess pho is better sideways? lol again, lame formatting. but wow,
this was just so amazing. i miss good food like this


it was a fucking feast over there. there was other tasty treats
that regrettably i didn't get to try. =[


so after that, went to the study lounge with the mais and studied for physics and chem. i guess it really is true, teaching the material to someone furthers your own understanding of the material. i feel confident for the midterm which is always a good feeling. got back to find the roomies all working out so i took off my shirt and we all started lifting weights and doing pushups. ahhah. i think i'll regret that decision in the morning when my arms feel like they weigh a ton.
