Finally got the chance to go this time; we've planned it out for the longest time.  I worked Ryan's shift yesterday cuz he had to fix his car, even though it's not fixed yet.  I ended up sleeping at around 3 - 4:00am cuz I had to eat dinner, take a shit (even though I couldn't), and rest my stomach before bed.  Then I woke up at 7:00am this morning to take Tiff to get her ID, since she hasn't had a picture ID before.  She's been using her ghetto Hazen one combined with her old permit.  It took us all morning to find 5 legal documents proving that she's who she is.  She was freaking out all morning cuz she wasn't perfect enough; all in all, her picture turned out perfect.  I think it's the best picture you can get that will last 7 years.  10 days until she gets the real ID.

It was around 12:00pm that we finally got out of the DMV.  We were both starving, so we hit up Sushi Land Marine Polis again for the 2nd day in a row.  Yesterday we ate $40 worth of food; god we ate so much.  Wasabi fried my sinuses, cuz I inhaled it, not knowing it was in the sushi.  Tiff and her damn soy beans haha.  She's gonna OD on those.  We got ice cream at Cold Stone.  She chose the flavor (Chocolate with Brownies and Marshmallow Sauce).  Omg gag.  It was too chocolatey.  It's all about the Cheesecake with Brownies and Strawberries.

After stuffing our faces, we went back to my house to hang out.  She doesn't really want to be home, which I don't blame her for; her parents are going crazy again.  I was so pooped out because I was helping 2 friends in need (Ryan to work his shift & Tiff to get her ID), so I passed out.  I sorry for sleeping while you were over; typically I wouldn't.  We took a lot of pictures with Tiff's new outfit.  Hotness.  I helped Fifi with her National Honors Society applications.  It sounds hella pimp, and she's gonna get in cuz of its sexiness.

We met up with Levie and Kat at 8:00pm since I was late.  We were all hungry so we hit Sizzler.  It was pretty damn good, except for the intestines that started coming out of my steak.  We got free salads; that was pimp.  Then we peaced out and headed up to Rick's De Ja Vu.  It was gone, so we went to the one in Seattle.  We got free discount tickets to Showgirls: De Ja Vu, so we went there.  We were scared of all the bums waiting outside.  It looked like they wanted to rape Levie and me.  We had to clench our buttcheeks so we didn't get taken advantage of.

There was only 1 cute girl in there the entire time, and she wasn't even a stripper; she was the waitress.  The first chick that was on stage was fucking insane.  She had a bionic ass or some shit.  It was moving on its own like it wasn't attached her to her body; even when she was stationary, the ass would move in insane directions.  It was oddly entertainly cool.  Tiff was mesmorized and kept laughing.  The chick saw her and started yelling a conversation back and forth with her:


Chick: Honey, what's so funny?
Tiff: ::giggles::
Chick: Come here baby, I'll show you something.
Tiff: ::giggles and nods:: ...no!


After she gets off stage and finishes dancing.


Chick: What was so funny honey?
Tiff: ::giggles::
Chick: Did you like my ass?
Tiff: Yes, it was amazing!


Guy asks for a lapdance from her


Chick: I'll be back baby ::grabs Tiff's right boob::
Alex: ::boner & holds down pants::


Other than that incident, everything else went downhill.  All the other girls were ugly.  There was only 1 other chick that caught any interest, but she was too skinny.  Tiff wanted her to give me a lapdance, but I wasn't really interested.  Literally, none of the girls in there did anything for me at night.  [EDITED OUT]

Some pictures Tiff and I took before going out.

[EDITED OUT]

It's been awhile...

I've been single for almost 2 months now.  Feelings are dying down a little, so it's making a lot of things easier.  As days go by, the feelings keep dying; I guess this would be a good thing since it's what everyone wants.  I didn't think I could move on, not saying that I have, but I think I'm getting there.  It took over a month to free good and bad thoughts that kept me up all night. I think I'm back in my groove of sleeping again.  I used to not be able to sleep at night, and I'd go to Denny's at 2 or 3 in the morning because I couldn't sleep.  The early morning waitresses basically knew me when I came in, is how bad it was.  Working out in Fitness was the only time I didn't worry about anything and was in my own zone.  I feel bad now for making others feel like crap when I was all depressed.  To whomever is reading this, I do apologize.  To those who have stuck with me, thanks. 

Life feels quite numb right now.  I wake up in the morning not wanting to get up.  I really don't know what motivates me to get up anymore.  I knew before, but now I get up just because it's a routine.  I wake up every day feeling like shit and wanting to sleep forever.  haha Levie says that if I keep up having only 3 hours of sleep I will be able to sleep forever when I'm 30 or 40, dying early due to lack of sleep.  School sucks cock because I have a new Physics project every other week to do and present in class.  The teacher is a nut and doesn't know how to teach.  Speech 225 is basically a repeat of Interpersonal Communications, so that class is damn boring.  I don't take notes at all because I make my own study guide for the exams and ace 'em (except the first exam where I blanked out and stopped writing halfway into a sentence and turned it in without realizing what I was doing...I think I was a zombie and sleptwalked).  There's a website final that I've been working on for class, and it fucking sucks.  I've put at least 50 hours into it all on my own.  Then there's an individual Physics project I have to work on.  This quarter sucks cock and needs to be over with.

Weekends are soiled due to work, even though I do work with some cool mother fuckers.  Long hours with strict rules and so much stress on my position is great right after a great week of stress from school.  Then to top all of that stress off, my love life hasn't been so great either.  Because of all that, I'm quitting my job at Blockbuster.  I put in my 2 weeks today.  My boss didn't seem very enthusiastic to hear about it.  I'm one of the few that don't complain about my job and actually do it well even though the pay is horseshit.  I've only been working there because my coworkers are cool and to kill time because weekends suck fucking cock now.  Most of the time I just spend dragging myself around figuring out stuff to do.  Now that I'm all better mentally and physically, I'm going to spend more time with my family.  I've been neglecting them, not because of choice, but because I've been fucked up.

On another note, I've been hanging out with Levie, Kat, Rosie and Ryan a lot lately.  It's been pretty fucking sweet.  Levie and I have 1 or 2 days set out just to Warcraft 3.  I'm hanging out with Tiff less which we both agreed on because I felt like her 2nd boyfriend.  It's kinda making me feel less like one; although, I do miss hanging out with her.  I finally put my neon light kit in my car, which I've been planning for a long time.  Since I have so much free time now, it's easier to do randomass unnecessary things.  I ordered the Logitech Z-680s and these beasts are sick.  I've gained 11lbs from just working out for almost 2 months; goal is 1lbs more to hit 110 (previously 98lbs).  Allergies and canker sores are kicking my ass.  Wingdom is fucking great.  Kamakazi wings are so fucking good, but don't eat a 7 Alarm unless you want canker sores and fried sinuses.  Tony and Linda are coming up to visit tomorrow.  Can't wait cuz I haven't seen those fuckers for awhile. 

Even though times have been rough.  Tiff has been a good sport and has made me happy even when I was really down.  She's one of the few things that actually make me happy, and it's pretty tough when she's not around.  She's always been a good friend and it hasn't changed since.

We had a good time doing some randomass spontaneous stuff.  We took some pictures at a photo booth, which is something I've always wanted to do with her.  We ended up doing it.  Almost went to Oregon at 3am one day.  Cool stuff.  Next trip, strip club.

Coolest fucking songs at the mother fucking moment:

Head Automatica - "Beating Heart Baby"
Coldplay - "The Scientist"
Seether feat Amy Lee - "Broken"
Queen - "I Want To Break Free" (stupidass Blockbuster commercials)
BSB - "Back To Your Heart"
BSB - "Don't Wanna Lose You Now" (yes even the Backstreet Boys)
50 Cent - "Disco Inferno" (cuz Bryan's so good at rapping it)

For some odd reason these were on my playlist just because they were good to listen to, but then listening to them so much, I can oddly relate to?

"If you have something you love, let it go.  If it comes back, it's yours forever."  -Ryan

...take your time.

01/21/05 & 01/21/05 - Most Fun Day Ever.  Next time we're going to Oregon.  Thanks! I love you.

Stress is high, and life sucks.

We left at around 10:00pm.  I headed home to nab the Discover card for the After-Thanksgiving Sale.  I get a 2% return on my total purchase for the month, so it's my primary payment method.  The After-Thanksgiving Sale is an annual thing I do every year.  I leave really early and camp out or wait in line for the doors to open.  It's the best sale of the entire year.  Last year I met a bunch of the cousins at the stores.  I planned on going by myself to Best Buy last year and ended up seeing Minh, Duy, Hoang, Long, and Nga.  This year was pretty sweet.  We tag-teamed almost every electronic store that had good stuff.

Ok for the 3rd time that tblog has fucked me over.  I posted a 2 hour long post which was cleared.  Fucking waste of time.  The only reason I'm blogging again is cuz I want to show off my girlfriend and cuz Fifi's been nudging at me to do it.  I am almost tempted to get an Xanga cuz this is making me mad.

Ok, again, for the 3rd time, my cousins from Utah and Austin came up to visit for Halloween.  Even though I had to work 1 of the 3 days, and no 1 told me anything about what was going on for the first day.  So in actuality, I only got to spend a good 1 day with them, not even that.  Even so, it was pretty cool having them up again.

Don't sleep before anyone else at my house.  Sorry Austin.


Not once, but twice. 

Decided to take my mom out for dinner.  I e-mailed her saying happy birthday, and planned out dinner at The Keg.  That place is fucking good as hell.  Expensive, but damn good.  I almost kidnapped Tiff and Fifi and brought them with us.  They couldn't come cuz of planning out of what to do with their grandpa.  It really sucked cuz everyone was hyped for them to come.  Uncle Scot and Di Nga's family came.  We all had a nice dinner and got some free dessert.

I got to go to Corey's birthday party for once.  It was alright.  Tiff decided to come at the last minute, which I'm glad she did.  Lam tagged along, which was also cool cuz I haven't seen that fucker in a long time.  I would have been bored to hell without both of them.  I got him Terminator 3 and Ninja Turtles for his birthday.  He wanted to buy both of them for a long time, and I'm glad Blockbuster has the buy 1, get 1 half off.  I get 20% off all games too, so all I did was get new cover boxes for the game and heat shrunk them.  After that, you couldn't even tell if it was used or not.  The game was in perfect condition, and I gave them a test-drive before giving it to him.  Glad he liked the presents.  He has this little bitch white kid friend that always talks shit and tries to fight me.  At the last party I remember him talking shit to Khang and punching me, so I choked him and threw him against the wall.  Little bitch is an ass.  Otherwise, it was fun.

Work has been pretty hectic as usual.  Can't wait until the other CSR (Customer Service Representitives) finish their training so my hours will go down.  Been hitting up the new movies like they're nothing.  I hate having only 5 free rentals cuz they fly by so fast.  Tiff went to the Switchfoot concert on Monday.  Fifi took care of me for dinner.  Nuked a Lean Cuisine while I tried to help her with homework.  I got her, those biscuits with cheese in the middle, Combos cuz she wanted them really bad when I went to Blockbuster with her to pick up some movies (Evil Dead & Evil Dead 2).

Today was my first day off in the last 4 days.  I get about 1 day off of work for the week, unless I'm lucky and get 2.  I wonder what it'll be like when school starts...well for me that is.  I got a bunch of stuff in the mail that I've been waiting for.  I got the S-Video & Digital to Composite converter for my laptop, so I can watch DVDs or play PC games on the TV.  I also got 1 of 2 of the Haley's Hints books.  They're coolass books that show you how to clean your house with everyday around-the-house stuff.  I got both books for my mom's birthday as well as DDR Max 2.  I think the first game is kinda getting old, so I thought I'd get her something new to workout with.  I'm still waiting for The Sims 2 to come in.  Got everything for super cheap.  Finished all my Christmas shopping too.

Better scale of what I did to the 4 pillows (after).


Total, I fit 4 blankets and 4 pillows in 3 bags.

I haven't had any free time off lately.  Julie, my store manager, has been off on a vacation for 2 weeks, so Blockbuster's has been hardcore out of control.  Mark is the assistant manager, and he's been going on a power trip since she left.  Julie said absolutely no overtime while she's gone, and Mark set up his schedule so that he'd get some, and because he set up his schedule like that, our other managers are working illegal hours of opening and closing on consecutive days.  The store has been pretty hectic cuz things aren't getting done, and he uses other workers as his clean-up crew.  Whatever he doesn't get done, he throws it all on the others to finish.  Since Mike, Marisa, and Carol left Blockbuster I've been upped a shitload of hours.  I'm working almost full time, which I'm not supposed to be working.  I used to get about 20 hours, but I'm pushing 40 hours now.  It should get better once Ryan, Jessie, and Beau start working.  I bring home a hefty $400 every 2 weeks now, but of course I don't get to keep any of it.  I get an allowance of $50 per every $400 I bring home, and that's only to use on necessities (rebuilding PC for school).  I wish I had the luxury of getting to buy clothes and other recreational stuff.  I can't go to school this quarter cuz Physics dropped me due to lack of students in that class.  There were only 3 or 4 students that signed up for it, so they cancelled it.  I didn't mind it being cancelled, but the bitches told me so late that I couldn't change my classes in time for school to start.  This quarter is basically hardcore working and no relaxing.

Some things that happened recently:

Brandon's Birthday (September 4)
Jen's Birthday (September 11)
Amanda's Birthday (September 12)
Grandma's Birthday (September 18)

Brandon's Birthday Cake (IT'S TIME FOR CAKE!)

I get to attend Corey's Birthday Party on October 9th.  First party I'll be at in a long time where I'm not working.  I bought him 2 birthday presents already.  I got him Ninja Turtles and Terminator 3 at Blockbuster.  Hardcore discount and he's gonna love it.

There was a family party on my dad's side today.  I actually got to attend this one, but not for long.  I stay for less than 30 minutes cuz of work as usual.  For some reason, no one likes to tell me ahead of time about parties, so I can never attend anything anymore.  I got some good food, $100, and didn't get to talk to any cousins cuz I had to leave for work.  I stripped and changed in the parking lot cuz I didn't have time to change.  Duy was supposed to pick me up and take me to work, but my dad did instead.  First time I saw my dad in almost 6 months.  Got work again tomorrow.  Come visit me please.  It gets lonely, fast.

It's been a longass mother fucking time since I've posted.  Too much shit has happened.  I've been working nearly full time now cuz of lack of workers at Blockbusters.

For now enjoy some pictures at Jen's birthday party.

Girlfriends get better and better everyday; this is why.
This kid is American Idol...err Vietnamese Idol...errr Vietnamese Pimp.

I've had another gum surgery recently.  It sucks cuz of all things my dad gives me, it's hereditary gum disease.  No, he doesn't give us money that he should to support the family, after running off with a mistress, he gives me gum disease.  Beautiful.  Yeah, so my surgeries cost me $160 out of my own pocket.  Insurance only pays $100 of it.  It's been pretty bad.

I've gone twice so far, and basically it's therapy is why it costs so much.  They clean my gums by numbing me and splitting the gums open (basically by making incisions) to scrape off the tartar.  The dentist said I'm doing a great job of cleaning my top layer with flossing and brushing, but the deep pockets of tartar can't be reached, and was passed down genetically.  My dad had really bad gum disease too, so that's where I think I got it from.

After all my bitching, I've had a pretty cool time hanging out with Tiff's family lately.  I love hanging out with her, Fifi, and Bryan.  They are so entertaining to hang out with.  They do some randomass shit, and I that's the kinda shit I like.  I had to do chores too.  Was getting bitched at by mom, so basically I had to get home and finish shit up.  Jen and Bong have basically been leaving stuff behind, and it's been piling up which built anger up in my mom.  I came home and finished off my duties for the week, and now there aren't any problems.  She apologized for yelling at me cuz she was frustrated.  I was the only one that was willing to ask what was wrong, and she blew up on me, so she apologized for it.  We're on good terms now before she went psycho.

I locked my keys in my car today too.  It was ghetto.  I never knew Honda Accord Ex's automatically locked the doors after 30 seconds of hitting the unlock button.  Basically I dropped my keys down after press the unlock button making sure I wasn't going to lock my keys in there, and, BAM, I got locked out.  I called the cops, and they helped me slim-jim my car for free.  They were hella cool about it, even though they fucked up my passenger car door even more than it was already fucked up.  That caused me to come a little later than I expected.

Tiff's been psyched for this train dinner that Melissa took her along to for her company.  She bought a nice dress (for cheap too, I might add - you're proving to be my girlfriend more and more everyday), makeup, and all the good stuff for it.  Basically it's a train dinner with old men that are gonna hit on my girlfriend.  She had fun though even with the minor complications.  I hung out with Fifi, Kelly, and Darrell.  They bought us dinner, and we talked about stuff for awhile.  We took some pictures after Tiff got back from the train dinner.

Getting ready again, after she already came home.


Me and you, and you and me.

A picture of us when I slept over.

Late nights have been spent researching a lot on computers since I can't talk to Tiff on the phone.  Something I do to kill time cuz no 1 is awake to keep me company.  I've been sleeping at 5:00am - 7:00am lately.  I even vacuumed at 6:00am a couple nights ago.

I told you I'd post pictures of Tiff's new place.  I helped do this.

By the way...HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Today was quite a workout but fun at the same time.  I woke up a little late cuz I didn't have my cell phone with me.  I left it at Tiff's by accident.  I got up about 30 minutes late, so I jumped in the shower and hustled over to Tiff's to pick up Bryan cuz he was gonna help me move my black desk to their house to give it to them.  We weren't using it, so my mom decided it was a great idea to give it to them since their's was falling apart pretty bad.

I got there late, so Bryan couldn't come until after his daily band practice was over.  I rented some movies and got some food to kill time.  I picked up Bryan with Fifi and Christian.  I had the red GMC for the day.  It was Jen's current car rental for when her car was in the shop to get fixed.  She got hit by someone, so everything is being paid for.

We headed over to my house to grab the desk.  Surprisingly, Bryan, Fifi, Christian, and I moved everything into the GMC ok.  Ridding the kitchen of the desk gave us a shitload more space.  I'm thinking of tossing a couch/futon to give it some sexiness.

The drive back to Tiff's  was more of a bitch than getting the desk onto the truck.  We had no buji cables or anything to strap it down, so I had to drive carefully.  We made it ok without any damages.  Taking a apart the old desk was more of a burden than anything else we had to do.  There were freakin' spider webs, dust balls (the size of my turds - even my 1 hour dumps), and mind boggling screws on the damn thing.  It took us a good hour to get everything ripped apart.  Tiff's dad told us to just rip it apart and use it as fire wood.

After having everything fixed up, the place was roomy as hell.  Bryan moved the red couch into his room, so it's a pretty swanky pad now.  The room was filled with at least 3 bags-full of junk that they totally got rid of.  I got home at 3:20am from all the moving, but it seems like it's worth it.  I'll snap some pictures tomorrow after my dentist appointment; I'll try to post some pictures of what it used to look like as well.  I'll be numb, so I hope the new setup will let me nap ok.

Too much shit has happened since the last post.  Yeah it's been awhile cuz I basically sleep, work, eat, and hang out with Tiff and the kids (Fifi & Bryan).  I got my new cell phone face plate, radiation blocker, and antenna booster.  So my cell phone is pretty pimped out.  I only needed a face plate since it got fucked up from dropping it so many times.  It wouldn't even snap together anymore.  I ordered a new face plate to fix it, but the other things were like $1 each, so I bought a whole set for my mom and sister as well.  I'll get a picture of my cell phone later.  I had one, but I accidentally deleted it.

Bong graduated from his Technical College on 08/12/04.  I didn't get to go to the ceremony itself cuz my mom didn't know we could have snuck in without tickets.  I saw Rowena at the graduation cuz her dad was graduating too.  Bong's friend Rex kept asking me if I could hook him up with her all night.  I thought it was hella funny.  We took a few pictures, but not as many as I'd hope for.  We got some dinner at Hong Kong Seafood Restaurant.  The food was damn good.  Can't ever go wrong with Chinese food if you go there.

I took some other pictures with the camera after the graduation.  Tiff and I went trigger happy on the camera.

After that I went camping the day after.  We left at 1:00pm cuz my mom got home from work late.  I only slept 3 hours, so I passed out on the car ride there.  We set up the tents and stuff with only Cau Hoang, Di Tina, Corey, Tyler, Kyle, Ong Ngoi, Ba Ngoi, Jen, and mom.  We killed some time by going to the lake to let Ginger(the dog) swim.  Cau Hoang, Tyler, Di Tina, and Jen also got in cuz it was super warm out.  Corey and I didn't get in cuz I was in my pajamas and Corey had his cast on.

When we got back Di Nga, Uncle Scot, Brandon, Amanda, Di Anh, and Khanh arrived.  We started a fire and some smores.  There were no showers, so we had to rinse off using a faucet in the middle of camp.  I slept in Cau Hoang's bigass tent made for 2 families.  Freakin' Tyler and Corey sleep all weird and shit.  Tyler kept turning sideways and laying on my stomach.  Corey just repeatedly kept elbowing me in the face.  I also had a constant urge to pee about 5 or 6 times during the night, so I kept waking up.  Other than that, the nap was good.

We woke up the next morning and went hiking early.  We hiked a good mile before having to turn back cuz the trail started getting intense for the kids, so we headed back.  We had our "Vietnamese lunch" before going swimming.  I went swimming in my see-thru boxers.  Brandon ended up losing a sandle under-water cuz it was hella muddy.  Everyone spent a good hour bobbing for the sandle but turned out with no luck.  We had to make him a sandle (out of paper and plastic) to walk back.  When we got back to camp, we started a fire to relax.  That's when Ginger went crazy.  She had sores on her legs (as the vet said) from over-working her legs swimming and hiking with us.  She's an in-door dog, so it was more than she typically could handle.  So because of that, she went crazy and bit Di Tina hella bad.  She had a deep puncture wound.  We had to break camp and rush her to the hospital.

We took care of the 3 boys (Corey, Tyler, and Kyle) cuz Di Tina had to be rushed to the hospital.  I didn't want to say 2 nights anyway.  2 nights is too long for that place with no shower.

Ginger before she went crazy.

Of course I can't have a trip without asking some randomass people to take pictures with us, and they agreed to.

Work has been pretty fun lately. I was Active Seller at Blockbusters. Basically I talk, help, and sell things to people while on the floor. I like talking to people more than working the register. Gets hella boring when you just speak in a script-like manner. Well when the store gets slow, I start to get bored, so I made myself a bass guitar. I made it out of 20 [u]Passion Of The Christ[/u] promotion cards and rubber bands. I banned 3 rubber bands in 4 columns and a couple single rows for frets. I use a paperclip as a pick. The chicks dig it; I already have a girlfriend, but it helps me get sales when people laugh at me.

I got off at 9:30pm today, but Tiff was at her grandma's, so I went straight home. I picked up some Arby's on the way back. Damn that place is good. I watched [u]Along Came Polly[/u] and [u]Club Dread[/u] while home alone. I have to catch back up to movies cuz customers see movies more than I do, and I gotta help suggest movies. [u]Along Came Polly[/u] was good, but [u]Club Dread[/u] was just stupid. Even the random boobs in the movie didn't help.

We went to Oregon for 2 days and stayed at the Liberty Inn for 1 night and the Shilo Inn for the last night. We hit the Tilamook Cheese Factory like we do everytime we're in Oregon. A lot of shopping at the Outlets. Got some cheap stuff. The beaches were awesome there. Nice sand, cold water, and nice cool breeze. We went swimming a lot in the hotel pools. Was hella fun. I bought these Nerf water balls for the pool, and we just pegged each other with them. Fifi got a Nerf water Volleyball too. It's awesome cuz it doesn't hurt when you hit it. Then we played volleyball with a beach ball. That was the most fun I think we all had. It was Tony, Khang, and me vs Jen, Tiffany (#2 - my cousin), and Fifi (I forgot to mention Fifi looks so cute in a swimming suit. The guys were better (yes we are) cuz we set it hella times and spiked it. Tiffany kept blowing it by hitting it the wrong way or hitting it too low. It was all fun.

I got my deck put into my car too. It's fucking sweet. Sounds like I have subs in my car just from having the deck put in. It was worth what I paid for it. Amy hooked Ryan and me up, so we got the same one.

I got a flat tire recently. Had to drive on my spare for awhile, but I got it fixed today. Bong always helping out with the car problems.

This was taken at Oregon. I look like I was cropped into the picture. Everyone looks so serious, and I'm in the corner being a fool. :lol:

Me taking a picture with some random couple that were sight-seeing. I asked if I could have a picture with them so I could seem like I had more friends.

I also got my Dell Laptop. It turned out to be really nice. I cancelled my last order, and the guy was wanted me as a customer so he offered me an employee discount if I called the sales department. Kim told me to check with her boyfriend to see if he can get me a good deal first, so I did. He hooked me up, but it still didn't match Dell's price, so I decided it was better to just grab a Dell. I called back, and I even suped up my Laptop even more. With everything totalled up, I had to pay $1900 with more than $350 worth of a discount, free shipping (another $60), no tax (another $130-ish), and was even rushed to my house. I received it earlier than expected, which was awesome. I got it before my birthday, so the day went pretty well.

I'm taking Tiff out today for our anniversary. Have the whole thing planned, but I gotta cancel Alki Beach cuz the weather is gonna be pretty bad. There's gonna be a few minor changes, but it should still be a fun day. She's sick, so hopefully she'll be ok to go out.

I just ordered a laptop from Dell. Pretty stoked to get it. I ordered a customized Dell Inspiron 8600. Was a bit pricy, but I'm gonna be using it a lot, so it's gonna be a good investment. I'd rather have a good laptop now than having to purchase another one next year. I'm gonna set up a home network at Tiff's on her beastily 45.2k connection.

Bubba called me a couple days ago and wanted to go deck shopping. He knew to go with me cuz I'm usually on top of things with technology, and could probably help him bargin. I guess he knew I wanted to get one too, so it was a perfect situation. Plus I haven't hung out with the big white guy in a longass time. We decided on Thursday cuz he didn't work.

School was the slame (same + lame). After school was cool though. I got to hang out with Tiff and Chris cuz they were planning on going to the mall with Kim, so I took us (Tiff, Chris, and myself) to Denny's for lunch. God damn the food was good; we devoired literally everything on our plates.

After eating, we headed back to Tiff's to relax until 3:00pm cuz we had to wait for Kim to get home. Tiff and I napped until about 2:30pm before she got ready, and we left. We had to wait a little bit for Kim cuz she was a bit late, but she came about 5 minutes after we arrived, so I dropped them off and headed back to Tiff's to borrow the phone from Fifi to call up Bubba cuz I forgot which door it is exactly to his town house.

I drove up to his place and luckily knocked on the right door, so booked it right away so we can make all the places on time. We took Bubba's car cuz he wanted to get the deck installed today. We stopped by Car Toys, Best Buy, and Magnolia Hifi. We got hungry after going to all these places and not being successful. Nowhere had the deck we wanted. Of course I wanted the 2004 models, and most places didn't even have them yet. We wanted to fiddle around with the deck to see if we really like the layout and and how it worked. No success, so we went to go eat.

We stopped by Mc Donalds to grab some quick cheap food. I only had $1, so I ordered the Double Cheeseburger from the $1 Menu. Bubba's crazyass ordered hella shit: 2 Double Cheeseburgers and a Chicken Sandwich from the $1 Menu. I asked for a cup of water to fill it up with pop (told ya I was stingy). We stole some napkins before leaving. Food was good and fast.

We drove up to Seattle cuz that's where Car Stereo Warehouse is. Kim gave us directions. We still got lost, so Bubba decided to drop by his dad's place to ask for directions. His dad was gone, but his stepmom/dad's girlfriend was there. She invited us in, and we looked around. The place was hella big and nice. It's 3 stories tall and has a sickass balcony that has a wicked view. She popped open a bottle of Sparkling Cider for us and we talked for a bit while chugging it down. We had to leave after awhile cuz it was 6:30pm-ish. She gave us the directions to get there, so we left.

We found the streets she told us really easy. She did a good job directing us, but we still didn't find it. We pulled over on 137th on Aurora (which is what Kim told us it was at). We called her and the place, but no luck, so we pulled out and took a right, and it was right in front of our face. lol we felt so stupid, but it was humorous, well until we realized the place was already closed. We headed back home after realizing how stupid we were. Good times.

On the way home, we took a wrong turn, and it was a one-way road, and there were freakin' plastic tubes that are built into the ground so people can't jump 4 lanes to get to the freeway. Bubba's crazyass thought it'd be fun to mow down the plastic things so we didn't have to go around in a circle 2 more times. When it was clear, he floored it and mowed down the damn things. It was hella funny cuz the cars around us were like, "what the fuck?" We flew home pretty damn fast. One point on the freeway, Bubba decided it'd be nice to floor it in his car; we hit 100mph before he let off the gas. It was fun stuff.

I got home and talked to Tiff on the phone before bed.

After finally getting it done, I took Tiff to Denny's again cuz we were both craving it. We went back to her place to nap before she has to go to work; it was her last day. It was so freakin' hot for some reason, but it was still a great nap. I took her to work after, even though it was a bit late cuz I was trying to help her mom with their speakers.

I came back after dropping Tiff off at work to help with the speakers some more. The speakers are awkward. They all work, but when you plug them into the correct holes, they don't work. If you plug the center speaker into the left speaker jack, it works, and vice versa. She just decided to forget about the center speaker. After helping her organize things, I left for Fry's to look at the deck I want. Surprisingly, they had it, so I got to fiddle with it and see if I liked it. I was very pleased by the options and whatnot.

After messing with decks for awhile, I headed over to Ryan's to meet up with him and Hines. We hung out for a bit until he had to go to work, so Ryan and I dropped him off. We headed over to South Center to see what Victoria's Secret had. They had a bigass grand re-opening. The store looks really really nice. It was too crowded, so we went over to Suncoast to check out stuff, then Spencers, and Fye. We left with these $5 170-CD Holder Towers. It was a freakin' steal, so we both bought one.

We headed back to Ryan's to wait for Hines to get done, so we hung out there for a bit. We picked up Hines later where he worked, and headed out to Applebee's. I ordered 10 Bufflao Wings, and god they were great. I was so hungry.

I got home and talked to Tiff on the phone before bed. It's easier to sleep talking to her before bed. Even though we talk usually until 3-4am.

Everyone played DDR except Tiff, cuz she's a wuss. It's freakin' awesome to see my uncles and aunts play DDR. My mom got on the pads and started wasting everyone. It's funny cuz my mom seems so uncoordinated, but she was a beast. Khang and I finished off the game with some Heavy/Maniac songs before Jen started practicing her Drill routine. We took a lot of pictures, laughed, made fun of each other, talked, dance (or whatnot), and ate. It was a sick party.

After the interview, I hung out with Tiff for a bit, then picked up her sister. I managed to drag the little sexy beast Fifi along again. She was declining before cuz Tiff didn't come, but all the sudden she changed her mind, which was cool. Traffic was a huge bitch. We had some stop-n-go action. It took us over 1½ hours to get there, but was worth it. We partied with the family, yet again. Khang had some hella fun PS2 games. He had the Fight Night demo, but it was a hella intense 2 rounds (it cuts off cuz it's a demo). We were all jumping up-n-down yelling and talking trash. I'm gonna get that game.

We played with the kids some more, and ate a ton of food. Di Anh made us some bubble tea. It was hella good. She had the tapioca balls and everything. We had a birthday cake for Tony cuz it was his birthday soon. Uncle Hoang got him a hella nice and expensive airplane . Tony and Khang ended up spending the night at my house for the night, after all the fun was over cuz I had to get Fifi home by 11:00pm. We got her home 8 minutes early cuz of my beastly driving.

After getting home, Tony, Khang, and I played Monopoly Party on the PS2. It was another intense game. We kept yelling and talking trash to the computer cuz he was a hacker. He kept getting bullshit rolls and was wasting us. I pulled back ahead and won the game with 4/5 of the board's properties owned and loaded up with hotels. We tried pulling an all-nighter. Tony couldn't handle it and passed out in my room, but Khang and I were pulling out strong. We pulled all the way through by playing Burnout 2 for the PS2. That game is fucking funny as hell cuz you have to use a car and crash into traffic and create as much destruction as you possibly can. We pretty much yelled and laughed all night at the same game.

My tail lights came in at one point of the day, but no 1 was home, so he left a note saying someone must be home in order for them to deliver.

School, that's it. I think I did good on my midterm, so I'm not too worried about how I did. I got to spend time with Tiff after school. It was nice since I didn't get to spend time with her the entire weekend. Next Friday is her last day working, so I get to see more of her. Got to pick up Fifi at school again. I didn't get to stay cuz the UPS guy is supposed to stop by today to drop off my tail lights, but it's 6:32pm, and he still hasn't come. I'm supposed to go hang out with Bubba those mother fuckers. We're supposed to go to Car Toys. That's all for now. Eew longass post. Later fuckers.

Thursday - 04 - 29 -04

Since Tiff doesn't post on her blog and has pictures uploaded, so I thought why not post em. I got it from her account.

These were taken on Thursday, when it was hot out, so we bought some ice cream and went to Coulon to sit in the sun, relax, talk, and play on the playground; it was fun.

I told you I'd win! But I am driving on the wrong side of the road. :(

I came home to a sleeping Tiff. I bought some KFC for lunch (as usual). We had a good lunch while we talked. I had to pick up Fifi 15 minutes later cuz I got out of the lab late. We all had lunch together (Tiff, Fifi, Bryan, and me). Tiff and I napped a little cuz she had to go to work, and she wanted to rest some more before having to go to hell.

I dropped off Tiff at work and headed over to Levie's. I rang the doorbell for awhile. I think I scared Rosie and their mom. I was about to leave when Levie walked up to the front door. I helped him fix this router and firewall problems, so we can play some Warcraft III. After that I just went home and relaxed.

Saturday - 05 - 01 - 04 (Tony's Arrival)

This day I woke up and did chores all morning and was supposed to be in Renton at 4:00pm. I didn't get to eat or relax or anything. I was constantly moving trying to get shit done. I showered and got ready and went to go pick up Fifi and Jonathan at Fifi's house.

We went over to JJ's house to meet up and see what she looked like. She looked pretty damn good in her outfit. Everyone was all over her doing her nails, hair, and makeup. Even though she did spend a shitload on everything, she looked good. Eva and Mark came over later on to pick up JJ. They also looked pretty sharp. Mark came in his nice WRX (yeah you fuckers, it wasn't an Impala). We took a ton of pictures, so it was pretty fun.

After they left we all (Tiff, Fifi, Sting, Chris, Jonathan, Kelly, and I) thought it'd be cool to go catch some dinner together and a movie. Kelly bailed out cuz she had to pack for when she moves, but the rest of us went to Red Robin's. Sting called Rachael, so she joined us for dinner too. The dinner was freakin' awesome. I didn't eat jack shit all morning, so food was awesome. I even fuckin' ate my salad with a spoon (cuz they forgot my fork).

After dinner, we all went out to hang out outside. We had to wait a good 1½ hours for the movie to start, so we were messing around outside. Had a good time. We went to watch [u]Mean Girls[/u]. The movie theatre was fucking stuffy as hell. Luckily the movie ended up being pretty damn funny. The best part was when the Asian girls were cussing at each other in Vietnamese.

After the movie, I dropped off Tiff and Fifi. Made a phone call to find out where everyone was (my family). They were at Di Nga's house, so I hauled ass over there to meet up with the family, and Tony who arrived 2 hours late cuz of plane delays. I got them some Taco Bell on the way there (which took 20 minutes to get through the fucking drive-thru). Stayed and hung out for about 45 minutes and left.

Sunday - 05 - 02 - 04

Still waiting on the tail light.

=http://store6.yimg.com/I/proc... width=460 height=305



Went to church in Federal Way. Church was boring as usual, I slept and we left. Then we hung out at grandma's for awhile. She made some awesome Pho. We just sat around, talked, made fun of each other, and laughed. Afterwards Bong took Tony, Khang, and me to Car Stereo Warehouse. The place is pretty big, and they have pretty niceass stuff there. The big black guy that helped me was hella awesome. He showed me his subs in his trunk. He turned it on hella loud, and his car was hella fuckin' shaking. All the sudden I hear him yell, "OH FUCK WHAT THE FUCK MAN?!" His rear view mirror fell off cuz the car was vibrating so much. Tony, Khang, and me were laughing hella hard. We left after browsing around a bit, so I dropped Tony and Khang off at my grandma's and had to head home with Jen. I've been doing homework since 6:00pm. So now, here I am mother fucka. Later.

I got there looking the best I could. Damn there were over 30 people being interviewed all at the same time. I was last on the list, so it was an hour before I actually got interviewed. It ended up being a 1 minute interview with 2 questions, and the lady said there weren't anymore positions. It sucked, I left and went to hang out with Tiff and Fifi for the rest of the day. They invited me for dinner. We had awesomeass BBQ chicken and rice.

We went to Rite Aid and grabbed some stuff. Picked up a bunch of makeup, browsed around, and went to the next store. Safeway was next to pick up pictures that Tiff's mom took. The pictures were awesome. Tiff, Fifi, and Kelly looked cute. We dropped by Bartell's for the rest of the makeup stuff, and headed back home. Tiff and Kelly went to go have dinner, so I left for home since Tiff was going back to homework afterwards anyway.

I got home to touch up on my English paper, cleaning up a bit, and ordering my tail lights. The mother fucker's sealant is screwed up, so water leaks through the tail light and pours into the back of my trunk. Bong and I tried using wood glue to seal it for temporary, but that was worse cuz all the glue dripped through the light and down the back of my car. I had to clean it up today in the pouring rain.

After coming home, I relaxed a bit. I didn't have any dinner and Ryan asked me to go have dinner at Applebee's with the crew. I thought why not? I got back at 11-something to my mom making me try clothes on for the interview on Monday. Now I'm on the comp. Later [i]Bitches[/i].

I picked up some Burger King on the way there. I was starving, and I knew I'd have to wait a longass time. The people at Honda were pretty nice. I thought they'd be cranky bastards. Everyone there kept asking how my food was. I remember a lady getting jibbed from her Sunchips too. The machine jacked her money, and I was laughing cuz a Mexican guy was making fun of her (after she left and he didn't know it was her). It took an hour to finish, but I got a free car wash out of it. I saw Carolyn's boyfriend too.

I headed back to Tiff's after I got finished. We hung around for a bit trying to think of something to do, and we decided to head up to Ba Ngoi's to hang out with her family up there. We played with the kids, ate, and hung out. Cau Phong showed me how to fold a shirt like this psycho Asian lady, it's hella savage. Good times. I had to leave at 10:30pm to get home early for church.

After church we went to the basement to get some cake and punch. Hung around there for a bit and watched the little kids chat and shit. There's this little Asian girl that kept gawking at me. She gave me dirty looks while in mass, and everytime I walked by she gave me a crazyass look. The sad thing is, she was like 5 years old, and had a face packed with makeup. It was sick (not the good sick either).

We went to lunch at Saigon Dynasty after taking some pictures. Food was freakin' awesome. I ate hella food. Chinese + Vietnamese food in combination is awesome. We hung around, talked, and ate. After lunch, we came home to me looking forward to doing homework. I pretty much did homework and cleaned the rest of the day.

After school Tiff needed to go talk to her manager about some Econ stuff. I took her out to Little Peking after the long stay at her work. Lunch was awesome, the food was good, and the service was awesome. I felt really crappy, so Tiff and I napped. I promised I'd make up for it another day cuz I got fucked up doing my English paper.

I got home at 6:00pm and got all my shit done. I finished touching up my English paper, fixed my job application, and touched up my resume. Feels good to get some much shit done. Sleep time motha fuckas.
