15 mins away from Las Vegas...

I'm currently blogging from the 15 North on the way to Las Vegas in our 8 person passenger party van using Jen's Sprint wireless air card.  I can see the flashing lights of Las Vegas in the distance... I love this Sprint wireless air card.  I think I'm gonna have to get one when I get back to SD.

Las Vegas here we come!

We even iChat with Alvin who was at Bumsville with Terry and Annabelle while in the Van.  
Party time!!!  Meet me at Rok then Drais for after hours... Holla!!!

BMW M3 x Vorsteiner

I stubbled upon this breath taking BMW M3 tuned by Vorsteiner on Motor World Hype.  This M3 is my ideal future car.  Its white, simple, clean, and packs one hell of a punch.  Just give me a few months...

Damn... Its so clean!  I'm still looking at the Lexus IS-F too!

Belated Thanksgiving in Mira Mesa

After the Charger game on Sunday, I got home and took a quick 1 hour power nap before heading out to Mira Mesa for Thanksgiving Dinner with TAA (Tall Ass Asians) aka 6' Footers and the rest of the fam. It was a pot luck at Joe, Cindy, Steven, Fels, and Aprille's condo. I was starving...
Thank you ladies!
Temecula in the house!!!
I didn't take many pictures... It was a chill gathering, with plenty of stories, laughs, disses, and fun times.  It was a nice relaxing way to end a long weekend.  Happy Thanksgiving!  TAA baby!!!

Crush. Kill. Destroy.

Crush, kill, destroy...To seek out and conquer; a mind-state many skaters have adopted since wheels were first nailed to a board. 5&A Dime, a well respected shop rooted in the world of skateboarding, and the new upstart shop Avnt/Grde have collaborated on a tee that solidifies the meaning, "Crush, kill, destroy" any spot, any time.

4 Banger!

Sunday I had to wake up bright and early to meet up with the rest of the guys to head to the Q for the Falcons vs. Chargers game. At this point, I'm seriously running on fumes. Its been an exhausting wild week of "work" aka partying.  HAHA.  It was hard for me to just stay awake during our tailgate.

CLICK HERE to view more photos from the game.

Chris Penny had to change his lucky pants since the Chargers lost to the Colts last week in another heartbreaker... Geez!  Its tough to be a Charger fan.  Too many ups and downs... 
I'm awake here... But I don't know what the heck I'm doing...
Then I knocked out for a good hour.
Our fellow season ticket holders in section View 20 always give me a hard time for falling sleep at the game, but man its tough to stay awake when you're losing!  =(  I got that whole sleeping with your eyes open thing here... I look crazy!  HAHA
After yet another heartbreaking lost we packed Kimtan's 4 bangin' Toyota Camry with 7 people.  It made for a fun trip to Fashion Valley... 4 Banger! 
TK x Steph x April's arm (?)... "Who's arm is that?" - April
Finally we figured away to make it work...
I don't know how the Chargers are playing so horribly right now... 4-8!  WTF!?  Tomorrow we've got a Thursday night game against our hated rivals the Raiders.  We better beat them or else...

Soulstice 2 @ U-31 Recap

There was no time for recovery on Saturday. After leaving Hollywood in the evening it was straight to U-31 in North Park for Soulstice 2 hosted by Mindz Alike and Victory Nightlife. I arrived to SD a bit after 10:30PM to find two long lines outside of U-31. The place was seriously crackin'!!!  We were at capacity by 11PM and had to turn tons of people away.  It seemed like everyone was out that night to just chill and listen to some good music...

CLICK HERE to view photos from U-31. (Victory Nightlife's event coverage will be up soon)

U-31 is a great venue with cheap drinks and a chill atmosphere.  Look out for some future projects we got coming up at this new venue.

Road Trippin' at 2AM...

I spent my Thanksgiving day mostly recovering/resting for the long weekend ahead.  The fam had a small quite family dinner.  When I say small, I mean: Mom aka An Diep, Brother aka Drew, and myself... Thats it.  My Dad is overseas in Vietnam running the Viet Mafia and making that bread.  Because my family is so small, thats why my life revolves heavily around friends.

I have lots to be thankful for!  Mainly, my family, friends, and life.  Thank you!

Demi aka Stinky aka favorite cousin, joined us for Thanksgiving dinner too since her family was in Vietnam for another week. After dinner, the two of us headed to the movies to watch Twilight.  Its definitely weird at times but its a twisted modern day fairy tale and I enjoyed it.  I wish I was a Vampire... Wait I think I am!  HAHA.  I'd give the movie a solid B.

Cousins: Demi x TK (FYI: She's only 13 but she's already 5'6")

That night, Meghan and I decided to make a late night road trip to Hollywood at 2AM to avoid any Thanksgiving/Friday traffic.  We got to North Hollywood in under 1 hour and 45 minutes.   I think I only saw 14 cars on the road the whole way up... HAHA.  We got to Chachy's condo before 4AM.

I took a nap until 7AM to meet up with Sammie and Ibay, while everyone else continued their slumber.  We were suppose to hit up WESC in Beverly Hills but our Black Friday tour guide aka Sammie was misinformed so we went to the Beverly Center instead so I could buy socks.

Here's Sammie and Ibay sharing an emo moment in line at H&M.
Sammie in her flying squirrel outfit that she got from WESC.
After a few rounds of shopping, I headed back to the condo to knock out.  Once Chachy got home we ran some errands and pick up some necessities for the pre-party at Circus Liquor store.
Dinner at Chinese Deli for only $8.50 per person.
Now let the partying begin!  I wrote all sloppy but these cups belong to: Melissa x Chachy x TK x Alex x Meghan
Road Dogs: TK x Meghan flossin' over $1,000 worth of sunglasses... Stuntin' is a habit!  HAHA
Melissa x Chachy x Meghan
We were all excited because its the first time in a while James came out with us too.  Look how excited we all look... HAHA!
Default Pose: Melissa x TK
Since we always pose like that we came up with a new pose on the spot... WTF?  I'm not sure if I like this one... HAHA!
The Fun Times Trio: Chachy x Melissa x TK
MWCG: James x Mark x Anthony

It was a crazy night of partying!  We didn't make it back to the condo until 3AM.  Here's Chachy and James passed the f**k out on the couch.  James is still holding an open bottle of Vitamin Water.  HAHA.
In the morning, I noticed Chachy had the hairiest Asian man legs I've ever seen.  He even has hair growing on his entire knee caps.  I don't know anyone with hairy knee caps... WTF?  Shave that shit bro!  HAHA
Then it was back to Panera for breakfast on Meghan... Thanks!
Meghan and I were debating if we should stay another night or not... Here's Chachy and I searching for ANSWERS!?!?  HAHA.  
We eventually decided to head back down to San Diego because I was suppose to host Soulstice 2 at U-31.  It's been non-stop since last week... I've been really exhausted but I've been lovin' every minute of it.

It was another wild and crazy adventure up to La La Land.  I was happy to see so many familiar faces that I haven't seen in awhile, especially James!  ;)  HAHA.  If I could describe it in one word: CRAZY.  Thanks again guys for always opening up your spot to us.  143!

p.s. I didn't get a LA dog aka dirty dog this week... =(
