Every morning I try to post something inspirational or motivational on my Twitter. Flo just sent me this Commencement Speech by Steve Jobs in 2005. Its an awesome speech with a terrific message! Watch it!

"You cant connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards..."

"Stay hungry, stay foolish!"



Thanks Flo! Now lets make it happen people!

Drake "Best I Ever Had" Video by Kanye West

I hear this song at least 6 times a day and its still not old to me! I'm such a huge fan but Drake's recent performances at the BET Awards was disappointing. He just sat down the entire performances, plus he even had like 18 year old (if that) groupies on stage with him. WTF? I was hoping his debut video of "Best I Ever Had" directed by Kanye West would be much better... You judge for yourself!

I don't know... I am not a fan of this video either. They totally went a different direction than what I expected but I do like boobies! HAHA

Lets go DRAKE!

EDIT: Oh yeah, I totally forgot he had a torn ACL thats why he was sitting down during his performance. But still the video is whatever...

[Thursday] RIP MJ, FF, & EM

I rode the Amtrack Pacific Surfliner down to San Diego on Thursday for the first time. On my way to Union Station, I almost died twice in a matter of a block thanks to someone's crazy driving. HAHA Shit was scary but hilarious at the same time. Thanks for the ride Sis!

Anyways, as soon as I hopped on the train, I opened up my laptop to log onto Twitter to find out about the news regarding Michael Jackson's hospitalization. I spent the entire 2 hour train ride constantly refreshing CNN, Twitter, and TMZ trying to figure out what was going.

I'd already heard about the passing of Farrah Fawcett and Ed McMahon that morning, but the news of Michael Jackson's death was devastating. I've always loved Michael Jackson... Its one of those day's you'll always remember where you were exactly when you heard about the news of MJ's death. =( I was complete shocked and sadden...
The train ride was actually really comfortable and relaxing. Each seat had individual outlets and there was an amazing view of the coast for part of the way. I could get use to this... I wish I could have enjoyed the scenery more but I was glued to my computer.
Thanks Alvin for picking me up from the Solana Beach station...
Later that evening we had a Victory Nightlife meeting regarding our upcoming Block Party at House of Blues, which happens to be this Friday! Get your $5 presale tickets now for the BIGGEST Pre-Independence Day massive in San Diego!

Meet the Victory Nightlife Family:
We roll deep!
Here's a preview of what we'll be doing at Midnight... Fist pumping! HAHA
A few of us headed to Tapioca Express off Convoy for dinner that night.
It was another busy day that started off in LA and ended in SD! But I'm getting use to it because I'll be doing more back and forth commuting soon.

RIP Michael Jackson... We miss you!

[Wednesday] Transformers x Grove x Roosevelt

I started off my Wednesday by heading up to Runyan Canyon in the Hollywood Hills for a morning workout. Not a good idea since I was still dehydrated from the night before and I didn't bring water. However it was nice and relaxing way to start off the day...
Once I got back to North Hollywood, Steven, Jenn, Melissa, and I headed to Universal City Walk to watch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen at AMC but they were all sold out of the IMAX showings. =(

Transformers was a two and a half hour movie filled with racist robots, tons of explosions, Optimums Prime kickin' ass, Megan Fox, cheesy jokes, constant action, and more Megan Fox. Overall, I enjoyed the movie but I still liked the first one better. Don't get me wrong... I enjoyed it, but just don't expect too much.

Transformers: 3.5 out of 5
Afterwards, Steven and Jenn headed back down to SD because they were being party poopers! HAHA. So Melissa and I headed to the Grove to do a bit of shopping before meeting up with everyone else for dinner.

While we were at Nordstrom, we made friends with Alley, Bobbi Brown make-up artist and birthday girl. She asked if Melissa and I were brother and sister... HAHA! What's weird is that isn't the first time we've been asked that question.
Alley was super cool! She even let me do price checks and play with the red laser! HAHA... I wonder how much she cost!? HAHA.
Mark Marcelo, Chachy, and Ben Wang met up with us to have dinner at the Farm next to the fountain at the Grove. It was nice...
Farm Steak
There was even a beautiful water show during our dinner!
Later on that night, it was off to the Roosevelt Hotel for the outdoor poolside party.

Chachy x Melissa x Alex x Peter x TK x Mark Marcelo
Round of Long Islands!
It was my first time at the Roosevelt and I liked it. Its definitely a chill Wednesday night spot. I can't wait to move...
Here's a rare picture of Ben Wang laughing... He's usually emotionless!
Sister x Brother... HAHA
Looks like I'll be seeing more of Peter soon... I'll fill you guys in soon! ;)
I spent most of the evening just choppin' it up with friends. Looks like I'll be moving up to LA sooner than later...

I ended up spending $120 at My House on Tuesday and another $160 at the Roosevelt. FML! But you only live once... So f**k it!

[Tuesday] Montalban x My House

Its been such a long week and I'm still in recovery mode. I apologize for being so behind on the blog. I was just going to call it a night but I thought I'd at least get one post up.

This past Tuesday, Steven (TAA) and Jenn rolled up to LA with me to run a few errands and enjoy the Hollywood nightlife. We first made a pit stop at SGX Media in OC to pick up our new Block Party posters and visit Myron Marten (21XL). I am really happy with the posters we have. If you want to help us by posting them up on your blog/site, please hit me up!
We then stopped by Blends Costa Mesa to drop off posters and visit Nobu and Nic Nice, who will both be at Block Party this Friday.

Afterwards, we headed up to Hollywood to meet up with Ben Wang (Clae) to grab an early dinner at Street. Its a new spot but the place was packed...
The wait was over an hour, so we headed straight to the Nike Theater at the Montalban for the Bjork concert instead. I'd like to go back to Street another day though... Who's down?
Live Strong!
They were showing a Bjork concert inside the theater.
After the showing, we all hit up the open bar sponsored by Belvedere Vodka... Holla!
People were going crazy over these Bjork posters... Calm down people!
The Hellz Bellz family was there too!
We left for My House (the club) at around 10:30PM to meet up with Anne-Marie and her cousin, Kristle. I haven't seen Anne-Marie in forever so it was nice to catch up...

Uhhh, sorry Steven for chopping off your face in this photo! HAHA
They were both lovin' Chris Evans (Push | Fantastic 4)!
The spot was crackin' as usual with tons of beautiful people and the ratio was almost 8 to 1 in favor of the females! =)
I think right after this I tackled her to the ground and started karate chopping everyone! I don't know... I'm just a weirdo!
It was just the beginning of a long week! Good to see everyone!

GOODNIGHT!
