hmmm

Oh yeah i was gonna blog but i totally forgot what i was gonna say! : 0 (insert dick here. I know Emerson gladly will) now that's lame.

Anyways mah new project, just bought a pair of raw denim jeans (circa 2 weeks ago) from Crate. They're the journal model. I'll post more on this later and the monthly wear and tear .

Other than that I can't think right now. Heiwa

hmmm

-Everyone who i asked to go to Davis with me can't go anymore for various reasons. I told Karen I was gonna go anyways. I want to go see everyone and chill with them. So I need to plan for all of that and ask people about their schedules and what not.
- Im turning into one of those people who just lay there and likes to think or just listen to music while lying down. Its not negative its actually chillax but yeah.
-Who even reads mah shit anymore. Damn do i need to spice it up. Mayb i'll get some big bootie bitches to do a dance.

Frigg

-Man my shoulder is taking to long to heal!! I need to work out dammit.
- Sometimes my mom get's me down and can be so mean.
-Realized the only 3 people im close to: Joryl (semi), Lizzie(Falling out now though), Karen Lau (pretty much the only one that im talking to a lot) all of my other friends, i don't even know anymore. Actually I don't think i really do know them, because everytime we chill its in a group, which i only started doing in high school, back then other people i knew wouldn't mind just a few of us going out. In high school that group mentality pissed me the fuck off, but hey its how the crew wants to operate, and that's how I'll fly or die.

Little Chinese kid Tommie: walks up to me "MR MIKE! MR MIKE!"
* I look down at him
Tommie: "I know all the songs to Kidz Bop 14!! Do you know all the words Mr. Mike?"
*Im laughing really loud in my head but on the surface im still calm*
Me: "No Tommie that's really awesome that you know all that. I don't even own kids bop 14"
Tommie: "Yay!" *Smiles and runs off.

You're A Slave To Money And Then You Die

What is it with the mind that makes it want things? I've tried to be a simple man and not much and at times it works, and at times its been out of necessity. The times when my mother and auntie who always pay the rent would go out and gamble and fuck it up. I'm just angry because they went to Reno for new years and spent away all the money, despite the fact we're six months behind on rent. I'm grateful and all and I know I've lived a relatively spoiled life, but wtf man. Gambling just pisses me the fuck off. Its been going on for a long time. My mom stopped, but my auntie still continues and then my grandma has to stress about the rent and my cousin has to bale us out, luckily he's conservative. I need to graduate in 4 years to end this friggin cycle of dependence and start paying for the house myself. Money just seems like its always the problem we always argue over in this house. ITS FUCKIN WHACK!!

Got Some Bad News This Morning Which In Turn Made My Day...

Not really. Only that everyone's leaving back to their respective UCs again. Oh well. There's always summer and that's how the cookie crumbles.

On a lighter note today was awesome though. Went to Ihop where I haven't been in awhile. What I ordered was lightweight good though. Some shit that I could've made at home cheaper even when you buy all those ingredients. Sometimes it feels like a sin or something going out to have American food that doesn't take much skill to make. Im just saying this in these tight economic times. But the food was still cool and hanging out and having good vibes with the people I know and love is good.

Went to Cherine's house and finally saw all of Kung Fu Panda. That movie was good, and i officially add it onto my 2008 list.

We left and parted our ways and Joryl and Emerson made up, ^_____^
Then Joryl, Jason, and I went to Pho Huhgh Hiep to meet up with Karen Lau and her fatass cousin Jessyca (jk jessyca) and we ate pha. Good times. Ate one final dinner b4 she Lau goes back to Davis. Then we went to go get my dog to meet her dog. Suffice to say Snowball was scared of Angel. I dunn think it would've mashed up great anyways because Angel's one of those dogs that likes to play rough with other dogs and run. So i think Snowball was leightweight getting abused. Cute little chihuahua i guess though. Left around 920ish and got back home.

All in all I had to say today was a good day i didn't even have to use my Ak fo realz though. Spending time with these people is one of the top best things in the world to do. Thanx guys!! I still have to think about my resolutions tonight and why not since the year is still fresh. Peace and much love.

2008 Retrospects

The year was kind of a blur. It sucked for a lot of people in the first half. Who would've thought that the last moments of Senior year of high school would've been so turbulent? I stood by and watched as so many beefs between friends started and ended stuff that I though would've never happened. What's more is it happened with a lot of them. Its weird how our best year was riddled with strife. But in the end we all came out stronger albeit damaged. For me it was meh and emo. Just seeing things happen around me and getting capped on by teachers. Same old same old.

Bought Angel in May? Yeah thanks to Joyce when she was a little pup. that was awesome. Sometimes I take her for granted or I get tired of her though. But its nice because she's always happy when she comes home.

Family-wise its always good, but its still that same old bullshit when it comes to gambling and money. I got mad love for my family but their gambling habits kills it, and its the main cause of all the arguments and bullshit that happens. But I can't complain we had some good times together. I got mad love for my brother cuz he deals with me so much and he always has my back. He's always mindful of me. Like always asking if I want to smoke or drink with people or have a good time.

Summer was such a blur because I worked and went to school. I woke up went to school just to go home and get changed to go to work, I was the most miserable at that time. But it was good because it actually made me try, like it was the best time i ever had academically.

Friends some go and some came. I can't front on whoever left though. They went places, and we chose to stay stuck here. I met some people at state that im happy i met. I hope we keep in touch and keep chillin now that we don't have the same classes anymore. I need to make these relationships lasts. I strengthened some relationships i have with people this year.
