Smart Water Bong

The other day Jon and I, thought that we should take it back old school and build a bong at home. Instead of just smokin' like usual.. rollin' j or rollin' blunt or just packin' bowls. It was pretty fun making it cause I haven't done it since those high school days. Haha.. Anyways, the project was a success of course; we got pretty stoned. I just thought this was one of the nicest bongs that I've made so far. Too bad we didn't have better materials for the bowl but we used all the resources we had and it wasn't so bad.

I can't believe its September tomorrow already!!! School hasn't been so bad though.. I have a feeling its going to be tough though. But maybe that's what I need for a little push or just motivation.

ANYONE NEEDS TEXTBOOKS FOR EL CAMINO?? hit me up!!

Tough Times

This picture is from the night we played poker at his house and this was one of this nephew's toys. It's that sandman from Spiderman, so we decided to play with them and take some funny pictures. Ah, Big B, you most definitely make my day sometimes. Haha :]

Sorry people, I haven't even updated my Rock the Bells pictures and I have been slackin' on my blogs but I have other things in my mind than writing blogs :/ Lately, it's been very emotionally draining for me but yet really good. I just don't know if I make it easier or harder for that person being by their side. It's so easy to just run and hide away in my own world but I've got a lot thinking to do and there's a lot of things that needs to be said and done. Could all this be happening to me because it's was all meant to be or just another tease for me? Is it about how much I want it? Or is it about what might be best for them? Do I think about what I want first or what they need first cause I love them to death? I've been lost in my own mind, trying to find a way out. And I just don't get why I freeze up and can't say what's on my mind when it is the time to say it. Why am I holding back so much when I just want to let them out? I've been trying to control a lot of things but it just comes out as I feel them. 

Bleh.. I'm going to try to sleep cause school started today. I gotta make it to class on time tomorrow. 

Good night world. 

Michael Phelps

Watching this guy swim is no joke, he's just an inspiration and makes you wanna cry. He just shows the potentials that any motivated youth is capable of doing anything that is put in with much effort and passion. Phelps accomplishing the impossible, by reaping eighth gold medal like rice is very inspiring to witness. I was told that after the eighth gold medal, Phelps is going to be offered a huge endorsements from different huge sponsors and which he already accepted. I also read that, weighed in gold, Michael Phelps is worth about $3 million. In reality the face of the Beijing Olympics is probably worth 10 times that amount each year! A professional swimmer by 16 and a millionaire by 18. I just don't get how the guy does it after 12,000 calories that's being consumed with mostly pizza and pasta during training. He's just a natural fish I say, after reading about his physique, my goodness. But congratulations to you and your accomplishments and making me just a little proud of this country.

Melrose w/ Dre Dub

A few days ago, I got one of my wisdom teeth pulled out and since then I haven't been really going out. But until today, my dear friend Dre Dub came over and we decided to go to melrose. I bought a few things like couple of shirts and 2 markers so I can go buckwild taggin' place :] Anyways, I saw these cool toys at the Urban Outfitters and it just reminded me of my old job at Pop Monster.


Since, I got only my bottom left wisdom teeth pulled out, I thought that I kinda looked like Kanye West. Haha. But meanwhile, while I was waiting in line to pay for my shirts and I happened to have found these sunglasses laying around so I decided to take a picture. Too bad you can't see my swollen jaw here. Well, I thought it was funny :x

Beach Night @ the Avalon

All night I was so fcked up. Ha! Everything seemed like a good dream like this picture :)

On Saturday, all the homies went to go clubbing at Avalon to support our dear friend An with his club promotion. I think I can speak for all that everyone had a really good time. Before I went to the club, some of us had a little pre-game and boy was I f*&#ed up! Our group got to the club a little late but when we got there I was already drunk and the club was already poppin' so I wasn't trippin'. I know I was a little too tipsy and I stepped on everyone's toes and people pushed me cause I was running into people, haha. But I don't give a eff cause I had good time :] So let's do that again soon guys, I know you guys had fun so don't try to deny it!

The King of Comedy, Bernie Mac dies at 50

I truly can't believe that he's really gone. There's people saying that it was all rumors that Bernie Mac is dead because there were prank callers that called CBS when they found out he was hospitalized for pneumonia. I mean it's everywhere that Bernie Mac is dead and no one is doubting that. I was at Rock the Bells yesterday and just about every artist was giving shout out to Bernie Mac. I heard the news that he was dead yesterday and today there's articles saying that it was a false rumor. But I did my research and there's a very minimal amount of articles stating that his death were rumors and the Times obituary has been posted.

It's really sad to see someone so young and gifted go at that age. I'm just thankful that he was willing to share his humor with all of us to make the world a happier place. The great ones leave early and make a mark that is remembered forever. But he will be greatly missed by many that he has touched and made life easier to. And yes, George you are right, the world did just get less funny. Rest in Peace Mr. Mac.

An American Killed @ the Beijing Olympic

On August 9, 2008 Todd Bachman and his wife Barbara Bachman was attacked by a Chinese man. The attacker stabbed Todd to death and left Barbara in critical condition and their daughter a former Olympian Elisabeth was with them while all this happened. They don't know the reason why the Bachman's were attacked. I just find this really sad to think that theres just angry people with no motives in life. I guess this guy just wanted to take someone down with him cause he didn't wanna go to hell alone.

This is the spot that the Todd and Barbara got attacked. The attacker jumped of this 130 feet tall structure, killing himself after attacking the couple.

Beijing 2008 Olympic

So, it's 080808 and there's nothing much more interesting going on but the Olympic in Beijing. I guess U.S isn't looking so good this year with the Olympic cause there are so many of our athletes that are injured and with the real bad pollution in China that are athletes can't be competing at the best of their abilities. Anyways, I don't really care too much for the Olympics but I just needed to put something interesting on for today. I thought this was a dope picture of the Olympic. This is the opening ceremony picture from Friday.

The Big Boss @ Tricell

So me and peter was super bored at tricell, while we were waiting for our dear friend maryjane to arrive and we decided to have a little fun with the big ass nokia phone that was chillin around. I spent a good 20 minutes trying to cut the stupid screen out of the phone with a little razor. While I was cutting the screen out, my index finger went into spasm and locked in a weird position! I wasn't even think about my health issue but I just so amazed that I was just shouting, "PETER! Look at my finger! It's f*&%in' crazy!" Haha. But I just massaged it and it went back to normal. So, all you people who kick it at tricell, if you catch me there I WILL take a picture of you with the Nokia :D

Happy Birthday Brother A and K

I know that it was on the 6th but I just had to put this special day for part of my crazy August blogs. But I just can't thank God enough for another day that I get to spend with you guys. I know it's been a crazy 2008 but I can't tell you guys enough how much you guys are blessed with great family, life, and friends :D I just can't wait for time to pass when things will all be behind us. I really admire each one of you guys for your strength and courage to go through this tough obstacle that God has put you through. You guys struggled through it but made it.

I just can't believe that I have only known you for about 3 years now. But it seems like every time I see you, it feels like we grew up together. I really thank you guys for all your support and love for the past 3 years. You guys really showed me what friendship and brothers meant cause I never got the chance to experience it. I know you guys had my back from day one and I do too. I know that I can always count on you til the end. Sehng il choo ka hae! Love you two both to death.

Solar Eclipse

I just saw another article online about the solar eclipse that took place on August 1, 2008. I only wanted to post this blog up about it because of the breath-taking shots some photographers got to grasp. I got a good amount of pictures I want to share with yall :D

Chinese word for a solar eclipse is called 'Rishi' meaning, 'eating the sun', can be seen above visitors at the Jiayuguan Fort on the Great Wall of China.

People watching the partial solar eclipse through special glasses from the roof of an observatory  in Germany.

Solar eclipse is seen in Harbin, China.

A Metropolitan Policeman watches the partial solar eclipse of the sun through his solar sunglasses in Hyde Park, central London.

These are people watching the full solar eclipse from a yacht-club on the bank of River Ob in the Siberian city of Novosibirsk. Thousands of people flocked from all around the world to Novosibirsk to gaze at mother nature beauty.

Ontario Mills

Kay and I went to the Ontario Mills yesterday to just go check it out. It was unbelievably packed that day! But there were some good sales going on but not that many good merchandise that I would buy, cause half the stuff there was things I bought last year. But anyways, it was nice to just check it out and spend a Sunday afternoon. When we got there, we parked at entry 6 and look at the nice little display they had outside :]

How can you resist taking a picture with a giraffe?? Cause I sure can't!

High Heel Race in Moscow

Hahaha! Today I came across something very interesting. So, I believe that they have High Heel Races now, but this event was placed at the Red Square in Moscow on July 19, 2008.  Participants of the high heel run were challenged to wear stilettos of at least 9cm tall. These women all competed for 100,000 roubles which is an equivalent to about $4,000 US dollars. All I can say is.. WOW, effin' unbelievable!

These are the women of today! Physically fit and ready to be on the go in style anytime, anywhere!

I still can't believe there was an actually race like this. Blows my mind, doesn't this make you laugh a little?

MORONGO$$$

I got paid a little bit on Saturday so Ben and Peter decided to convince me to go to Morongo with them that night with Cathy. Everyone was on a good streak that night until we all blew off our money X) But damn, I told myself I would never go to Morongo again but they enticed me to go at a vunerable moment! Fine, fine, I won't blame anyone else but myself -_- Anywayssss.. at the end of the night we were all ready to leave but Cathy decided to play $20 on the slot machine and I went with her, she won about $65. But thats not the big bucks she won that night! Later, we saw Ippei so she decided to play $6 that she had left and we went to the dollar slots and she hit jackpot and won $500! Damn, well I say f*$& blackjack cause I'm about to hit up the slot machines when I go back! Cathy was nice enough to share some of her winnings with us :] Thanks C!

HAHAHA. We were at Tricell before we left for Morongo and that was on Stephen's back the whole time I was there. But we just stuck it on Ben's forehead just for a little photo time.

Lucky winner aka Lady Luck of that night from our group. We were in line to cash out her $500.30 voucher. This was all from just $20.. my goodness.

Jam Session w/ K.

After the Manhattan Village, K came over to just hang out and we decided to have a little jam session. While I practiced my ukulele, Karen learned the acoustic guitar. I know I'm not much of a teacher but I DID teach her G, C and E, homie! That's what's up. If you EVER need to learn you know I am more then willing to help out :D

Manhattan Village Hustlers

Today, I decided that I needed to go to the Apple store to see if I can find a way to fix my iPhone. So, my accomplice Karen decided to tag along with me on this trip to the Manhattan Village. We went to the Apple store left a appointment with them and decided that we were hungry, so we ate. Next to the place where ate, there was a water fountain with a few kids playing there which wasn't unusual. Until... we saw these kids stealing from the coins from the water fountain! These little thieves were scavenging people's wishing from this fountain. The kid in the blue was the bitch boy, who had to do all the dirt works.. Then there was the mastermind on the side counting his come up. I mean wow! Where are the kids' parents?! If I was their parents I would of been like, "You better have $10 by the end of the day or you ain't gettin' no dinner!" I'm just playing, I would of whooped their arse :D

The little thief that I caught in action!

And his bosss, the coin collector! What an entrepreneur!
