Alvinism NYE Recap

Good morning! I'm just woke up from a chill night out in San Francisco with Kevin Siu (World of Dance), Rygar (600 Inc), Jay, and a few other friends. There wasn't much to do b/c everything was closed.  We just hit up a few different bars, drank a few drinks, and sharing a few stories. I finally got to sleep... I've been running on 45 mins of sleep from the night before.  

Anyways, Alvin just posted a recap of NYE on his blog so check it out by CLICKING HERE.
Time to head over to SFO to continue our journey.  See you all soon!  143!

MTV Cribs: NYE Preparty

TIME OF MY LIFE!!!

I'm in SF for the night...

Greetings from SFO! Alvin, Richard, and I didn't make the standby connecting flight to Germany so it looks like we'll be staying the night here in lovely San Francisco. Leo's on his way to pick us up and we're headed to meet up with friends in the City.  

Hit me up on my cell if you're in SF and want to chill today.  I'm down for whatever! I'd love to see some familiar faces while I'm here.

I'm on my way to EGYPT!

I'm still awake from New Years Eve! Its officially January 1st, 2009. Happy New Year! 

Last night's House of Blues event was crazy! We had our own floor at the Marriott Courtyard... It was madness! So many friends, so much fun! The place as packed! I loved it!  

I didn't take any pictures... Sad Face! Hopefully you all took enough photos for me to post. I'm actually at the airport right now on my way to Egypt. I just wanted to tell everyone... I LOVE YOU before I left.  Thank you!
See you in Egypt!

MTV Cribs: Marriott Courtyard NYE Edition

We just shot this at our hotel suites at the Marriott Courtyard in Downtown... See you tonight!

I'm leaving for Egypt in the morning...

I don't think I'll be sleeping tonight... After NYE 2009 at House of Blues, I'm probably gonna continue partying into the wee hours of the night since I have a 10AM flight to Egypt!

I AM GOING TO EGYPT!!!

2009 = Year of the Gentlemen... HAHA.  I want to do a full 2008 recap but I don't know when I'll get a chance.  I'm sure I'll be posting a blog here and there from our hotel rooms tonight but just in case I don't... THANK YOU everyone for a memorable 2008.  You've all left me breathless (refer to the quote below).  Happy New Year! Please be safe tonight... Don't drink and drive!  I love you all!  See you in 2009.

With that said, I leave you with a few of my favorite quotes from Alvinisms:

"In the end, it's not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away"

"Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget."

"I've learned that people forget what you said, people forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

"My mother used to say that there are no strangers, only friends you haven't met yet."

2008 Favorite City: New York

I was definitely a nomad in 2008.  I visited New York (x7), Seattle, Las Vegas (x5), San Francisco (x4), and Los Angeles (x100+).  I never wanted to stay in one place.  I kept wanting to travel, to see new things, to meet new people, to experience life outside of San Diego.  I loved it!  I've meet so many wonderful people along the way, reconnected with old friends, made new friends, and had the TIME OF MY LIFE!

Out of all the places I visited in 2008, New York was my favorite!

Recommended Movies

Seven Pounds: B+  [*]

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button: A-
Eagle Eye: B+ (Now available on Blu-ray)
I love watching movies!!!

[*] Edit... After Willie pointed it out I would have to agree that Seven Pounds did deserve a better score.  The overall message of the movie was very touching and I almost cried at the end... Almost.
