Lisa Kai's Birthday @ Sidebar

[Wednesday, September 2nd] I headed down to Downtown to have dinner for Lisa Kai's birthday (Babe Blvd) with Twee (Cockstar), Christine, Denise, Jay (EOC), and Kevin (FYS) at RA Sushi. I forgot my camera so I didn't get a chance to take any pictures, but the girls did so I'll wait for them to post them.

Lisa was celebrating her birthday at Sidebar's Service Industry Night (S.I.N.) but I stopped by 923 before heading over to meet up with the Mindz Alike family & friends.

A handful of us headed over to Sidebar around 11:30am to find out it was hella crackin'! I was super surprised because I've never seen any events in SD this crackin' on a Wednesday. Supposedly their Wednesday S.I.N. is their best night of the week. Reminded me of Hollywood...
It was so crowded inside but luckily Lisa had a VIP table...
PUMP YOUR FIST!
Happy Birthday Lisa!

I pretty much stayed up in the VIP booth most of the night because it took forever to get a drink and there was no walking/dancing space.
We love you to Scott!
Damn that was on a Wednesday? HAHA Felt like Saturday night! Fun times... Glad to see everyone! Happy birthday Lisa Kai!

The Encore of Entree @ Guys & Dolls (Hollywood)

[Sunday, August 30th] I was knocked out on Sunday... Trying to catch up on some much needed rest. Mark Marcelo, Julz, and Guil all came by the house to chill for a minute before we headed down south to Noriza's for Edric's birthday gathering. Mark and I couldn't stay long because we had to be back in Hollywood in time for Guys & Dolls, but we got a few laughs, sipped on some bubbly, and shared a few stories before heading out.

CLICK HERE for photos from Guys & Dolls on Sunday.

Thanks Noriza for having us over!

I want the Canon S90!

Since I'm constantly taking photos, I thought I'd upgrade my digital camera. Once I heard about the new Canon G11, I was convinced this was the perfect combination between a compact digital and SLR, but it was still a bit too bulky for me. Then I found out about the compact Canon S90. It has all the main features of the G11 in a more compact size and most importantly it has the new low light mode, which will be perfect for the clubs. HAHA

Canon S90

Key Features & Specs:
+ New 10 megapixel “high-sensitivity” sensor
+ RAW format
+ DIGIC 4 Processor
+ ISO 80-3200
+ 28-105mm f/2.0-4.9 zoom lens with OIS optical image stabilization
+ New customizable control ring
+ “Dual Anti-Noise System”
+ 3.0 inch LCD with improved color rendition and 461,000 pixels
+ Enhanced i-Contrast
+ Improved scene detection
+ New Low-light mode

For more info check out: Canon S90

Thanks Keith!

A few months ago, Keith gave me a sneak peak at these DC Lifestyle high top sneakers that were to be released in 2010. Keith recently parted ways with DC but before he left he grabbed me a pair. Thanks Keith!
Come check out Keith aka DJ Kinetek this Sunday, September 6th at House of Blues inside the Legends Lounge spinnin' Dubstep at the Block Party!

[Las Vegas] Naked City @ V Bar TONIGHT!

I'm hoping I can make it out tonight after my meetings in San Diego. Just cross your fingers I get on a flight flying standby on United. Hope to see you there!

Most people go to Vegas to gamble, drink, and party… I go to Vegas to work, gamble, drink and paaaartaaay!!! So what better way to end my first day of Project than w/ my sexy bitches, bottles of Belve’ and did I say sexy bitches?!

World of Dance San Diego

[Saturday, August 29th] World of Dance San Diego is finally here! I've been looking forward to having WOD in San Diego ever since the tour was first announced in 2008. Its been months of planning and it was all about to take place. After an exhausting 22 hour Friday, Saturday would prove to be just as tiring, but I can't complain because I love what I do!

Overall World of Dance was a success! Despite the chaos and pandemonium backstage, the show ran smoothly (with a few technical difficulties), but it seemed like everyone enjoyed it! Quest Crew seriously killed it on stage! We were all panicking backstage since they were driving down from a show they did in LA at 9pm. They literally got to the Convention Center at 12:08am and performed at 12:14am. Talk about cutting it close... The crowd was going bananas too!

CLICK HERE for pictures from World of Dance San Diego. I wish I would have taken more photos but I was so busy the entire time running back and forth.

Check out my creepy predator pic... HAHA
Crackin'!
Thanks to my personal assistants: Kimtan x Twinkle

Thank you to our wonderful staff of volunteers for all their hard work throughout the day. 143!
At the Pony table where Quest Crew got hooked up with shoes!
The show didn't end until 12:20am and I was exhausted but I had to stop by the after party at Thin/Onyx. The place was packed and ridiculously hot by the time I got there! I took a quick shot of Patron with friends before heading to the Bitter End with Super Crew to meet up with the UrbanFX fam.

Happy Birthday Himerria!
Shanara x Vanessa x Lovelyn x Laura x Alfredo = UFX Alumni 143!
A few of us grabbed Santana's and headed to Lovelyn's new apartment in Hillcrest. I didn't get home until almost 4am... What a crazy long 2 days! Time to get ready to head up to LA on Sunday.

For those of you that missed it, here's the first part of Quest Crew's performance:

They killed it! Keep it up fellas! Hope to see you guys back in SD again soon!
