I’ve been out a lot before my trip to Ensenada, Mexico, I mean a lot! I haven’t had the energy to update this blog until today. We saw Justice when we got back to LA with a full limo service and an all-access pass. I must say it was a very sweet ending to our small vacation back from Mexico. I haven’t gone out or had any intoxicating beverages since then, so proud of myself. I also been sleeping 7-12hrs. each night. I feel like the crazy social life sucked the living hell out of my body.

I think I really needed that trip to separate and awaken myself from my long hybernation. I know everybody goes through this cycle in life. Like a ferris wheel ride when you realize you’re on the bottom, you just can’t wait to be on top again. I’m on this cycle where I am always on top and never down. My life is amazingly fun and full of enjoyment(really). I know this has an ending just like a ferris wheel ride. And when this ride ends I should have a place to go to and not be stuck in the ferris wheel that no longer works. I just feel like I’m not working hard enough to achieve what I really want in life. And on second thought, I’m contradictingly thinking that I work so hard but I’m moving really slow or not moving at all. What I really want in life is simply to be happy and finish what I’ve started. I’m not getting any younger, I’m wiser, but not wise enough. I often ask myself when I’m going to be ready to settle down and slow down this crazy lifestyle I have. As of this moment, there’s this thought that sips right through me, the thought of taking it slow and or maybe settling down. I just hope this stays and I don’t lose thought.

I remember when I was 14yrs. old, I told myself that I’m going to finish school by the time I turn 22, get married by 28 and maybe have kids by 30. It’s funny how I try to plan out my future when I barely know anything in life. Time is fast and it’s not slowing down at all. I’m somewhat financially stable, but I want more and need more. I have this arcane glimpse of regret of some sort, I know what it is, but I just can’t seem to focus on. All I know is that I’ve begun and started to do something about it. I’m on it like a rat on a cheese.

Thought of the day:
There are so many people in the world. I am always seeing new people, new faces, and never seeing many old faces/people. How can there be so many people? I’m thinking maybe I just have a bad memory or maybe it’s because they change clothes every day or maybe they change faces?

This song really has me right now.

Earth meet (your name). (your name) meet Earth. (your name) take care of Earth.

Here are random pictures I took during the past two weeks. These were taken by a camera phone, but with the help of Gimp magic can be created. I’m in spring break and enjoying every minute of it. It’s nice to just come home and stay for the rest of the evening without worrying about school, atleast for this week. The only downside is that there’s no new episode of LOST this week, what a bummer.

My mind is set on over-drive.  Another birthday is just around the corner and I can’t help but to stress about how time flies by so fast.  I’ve been asked several times what I’m doing for my birthday, a few friends have kindly suggested what they want to do for my birthday, few families asked what I want for my birthday, my response is nothing.  I’ve been dull for few days and kept thinking what I really want to do in my life.  Of course I have goals and aspirations in life, I’m not slacking or just partying all the time, and I don’t think I’m having an early midlife crisis either.  I don’t really know what it is and I can’t really explain it.  All I know is that I want to move somewhere, meet new people, live in a different environment, and do other things.  How can I do all these things if I’m here stuck with bills and responsibilities?  I think the book “On the road” by Jack Kerouac are for people who have no responsibilities in life, it’s inspiring and all, but it don’t think it will take you anywhere.  Too much rant, maybe I’ll just move to India and live like a monk and not care about the material things in life.

Enjoy this great remix(Happy Birthday) of Lights and Music by Cut Copy. It’s done by one of my favorite Dj-boys noize.

Again, sorry for the lag.  I didn’t know this page was down until a friend notified me and plus the DNS propagation took longer than I expected.  Life, life’s good, it could be better, but then it could be worse so I’m not complaining.  My exam went well, there was 110 possible points which 10 points were extra credit, I got 101 so I’m happy.  The long crucial studying paid off, studying in a relaxed timely manner is definitely the way to do, procastinating and cramming should not be done so very often, I’m talking to myself. 

In other news, for some reason despite of all the studying I dealt with, I still manage to squeeze some time to hang out with friends.  The weekend was very splendid. Sunday, I made it at my friend’s birthday party and I had no choice but to call in sick Monday, I was uncomprehendable, seriously! Tuesday, it was a blast, Cinespace was a kicker-Steve Aoki and sister Devon, Mstrkrft, Dj AM showed up and kill the entire sets.  It felt like quite a few old friends and acquiantances were all at the same place that night. I finally caught up with my sleep last night, I was in bed by 11pm.  I’m all energized like the battery and ready to keep going and going again.  I feel rejuvenated after completing my tasks and getting a very positive results.   

Last week’s episode was so epic. The story line definitely went off a tangent. I’m happy to find out that Desmond finally got contact with Penny. This show just keeps getting better and better. According to what I’ve read, Juliet becomes the center of attention in tonight’s episode. We shall see if things spice back up between her and Jack and if we get any more information related to what she knows about the Island. The episode description “The Other Woman” would suggest that she is coerced into doing something unwillingly. Also, tonight’s episode should provide some extremely compelling back story about the Island and Juliet’s time spent there prior to the crash of Flight 815.

I need a breather. I’ve been studying since ten this morning. I went to Cerritos Library, best kept secret library in Cerritos. The place where I go when I need to focus and separate myself mentally from all things. I’m back home and distractions are all over the place. This is the reason why I chose not to study at home, this post is a proof of it. My phone has been off since noon, I’m probably being blown off. Maybe I’ll leave my phone off all night, it’s nice not to worry about having a missed call or text message.

I’m not even half way done yet, I got four more chapters to study and five crucial take home exam to finish. I need to wrap this up by 5pm tomorrow or else I have no choice but to miss a friend’s birthday party. I need to get back on studying before I completely slack off. Life’s so hectic, but I’m not complaining. Work Hard, Party Harder. FTW!!!

I am tired, sleepy, dehydrated, exhausted, sore, moody, cranky, and hungry. What a way to start the day. And to make it even worse, I didn’t get to see the entire episode of LOST last night. It’s like my memory when I drink-there are missing parts. Thanks to ABC for their free streaming of the past episodes, I would have probably shot myself in the head if such thing didn’t exist. There’s only one positive thing about this day, it’s friday!

My New Year’s resolution of not drinking coffee in the morning has been a success. I found an alternative to get my boost of energy for times like this, Powerade and/or Vitamin Water. I came across this page while searching for a picture of Vitamin Water. Click on the picture below to read the article. It’s purified and has this quote “stay focused, believe in yourself and believe in God.” It seized to amaze me how marketing companies will touch on anything just to push their products to consumers-pathetic! I think I need to stop and get back to work. There’s only one solution to this dreaded morning, breakfast burrito!

Mammoth trip was a hit, it’s still one of my favorite resort in North America, it has never fail to impress me. You will notice that there are no pictures from riding session, reason being is that the storm came really early around 2pm. It was snowing the whole time we were there, the wind were blowing drastically. There’s no point in time I was able to take a shot of the mountain, because of the fog and the wind. Some people who didn’t have an extra overcast lense for their goggles tumbled down the slopes since it’s low visibility, yup, it was that bad! Your face will literally go numb if you don’t have any type of mask on, when the snow hits your face it felt like someone throwing wet sand at you. Ultimately, all we did was enjoyed the fresh POW. Winter is shorter, but definitely stronger.

I apologize for the lack of updates. I’ve been meaning to update this blog, the only thing that’s holding me back are the pictures that I needed to upload for the Mammoth trip. I’ve been so busy ever since I got back from Mammoth. School, work, the freelance, and of course the night escapades, have been occupying my life like crazy. Monday night was a bit crazy for me, for some divine reason I was at work in the morning and I’m on time, sweet Jesus. And last night, I don’t even want to talk about it! Anyway, I have a lot in my mind lately and this blog will help seeps some out. I have a few blogs that I need to post, I didn’t want to post them, reason because I didn’t want it to contradict with the past events to the recent one’s. I hope you’re getting what I’m trying to imply, because I feel like I’m not making any sense.

The weekend has been a blast. I couldn’t be any happier when I’m up the mountain and shredding myheart out.  I’ll dispense the details on my blog about Mammoth. Getting out of the city and taking a break from the normal routine of life is definitely a must in everyone’s lives.  Snowboarding season is in full blast, and it strikes me again that snowboarding is an all-or-nothing proposition.  Compromise can gnaw away at the plan;  it seeps through the cracks in our lives until, pretty soon, it’s running the show.  Driver’s wanted, right? But sometimes we all end up going for a ride.  Traditional restrictions apply; job, rent, him, her … the car, the dog. There are plenty of obstacles to get in the way. But, man, an occasional trip to the snow-an on-again, off-again brush with happiness-just doesn’t cut it.  What am I getting at? Life is short. Winter is shorter, but stronger.  If you’ve never tried snowboarding or always thought of trying it, procastinating won’t get you no where. Design your days around snowboarding with the people who are important to you, and the rest will fall into place. There’ll be time enough for compromise when spring comes around.

(more pictures soon)

This morning the campus was in “lock down.” All the classes were cancelled, all the administration buildings were shutdown. Somebody reported that a person roaming around the campus with an assault rifle and a cannister on the man’s waist. This prompted the school to shut down and search the sprawling university grounds 20 miles south of downtown Los Angeles. Apparently, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department says someone mistook a ROTC student practicing with a fake rifle to be an armed gunman. False alarm. Follow this link if for any reason you’re in a situation like this and I hope you won’t.
