November 01, 2004Living today to its fullest...Living today to its fullest is what lead you to tomorrow I'm back again on a new webserver. I finished migrating all of my website to the new server. It took quite a while but it's all worth it. I also upgraded my blog backend with the new MovableType 3.121 and also with my gallery, I upgraded it to the latest Singapore version 9.10 (with guest login feature...or something). The reason for my move was because of a bored, two-face, no-life network admin that has nothing better to do than to start locking out accounts on our department Research and Development server (that we bought). I'm going to leave it at that...because it's a long story...if you want to know about it then send me an email in my contact page. Anyhow, I don't really care too much about it anymore, now that I have my own space to do and post whatever I please! So screw you! You know who you are... I haven't written in a while (due to the migration of my site), so here is a recap of what happened in the past few days. Click below to read MORE. --------- I stopped by at Darren's place for some BBQ later on the night, got to see the annoying but cute roommate again. She's so Miss Attitude! I feel sorry for Darren that she is kicking him out and that he has to move to a different place by tomorrow. Man, it's not too late to do what I told you that one time...payback is a bitch! And a bitch only deserves another bitch! Anyways, we were later hanging out over at Lily's apartment while eating some BBQ chickens, and teasing her roommate, who is asian, and a international student from New Zealand. Derek was over too, chilling with us, and later, we were joined by Jessie and her homie, Nancy, the burned...I mean...oreo-cookie-girl. Later on the night after the BBQ, Nicole, Darren, and I left and went to see a performance by the UCI's Improv Club. They were pretty funny. The Live Nude People! --------- Omar was to be a zombie, and Angelic helped decorate him with the costly blood/scar make-ups that he bought from the store. Overall, it took about 15 minutes and the outcome was pretty cool and...gross! See pictures in gallery! Kim later arrived with her nurse costume and we then drove to Joe's house for his costume party in Irvine. We met up with Matt (Pe.ter Pan) and Becca (fairy? or pixie) over there. We ate and chat with a few of Joe's and Tiffanie's family and friends. I later got to try out some newly learned swing dance moves out with Becca, who is a pro at it. I couldn't believe that the moves I have learned in social dance class are actually real! Hehehe...it was fun! Now I just need to go try some Salsa dance moves at a salsa dance club one of these days. Anyhow, a party can't be a party without some Texas Hold'em! And guess WHAT? Did I bring enough money to play? NOPE! There were 6 players this time. I felt really bad in the end because I took out the host, who has about 5 times the amount of chips I have. At the time, I was happy just settling for second place to win 20 bucks. But anyhow, I wanted to test my luck out so we continued to the very end! So at the very last few rounds between the two of us. I started doing ALL-INs all the way and within 3 consecutive rounds, I took over being the leader in chip count and finally took him out to take first place, winning 40 bucks. I wanted to lose too, because it's Joe's party and I didn't want to take first place from him. Like I said, I felt really bad, since Joe (the host of the party) never comes out first at Poker before, so I decided to split my winning with him and also paid Omar back for spotting me! I again walked out of a party with more money than I came in with. --------- Before stopping by Omar's house in La Verne for some BBQ. I stopped by the Albertson near my house for some relish and onions. I swear that I have never been in line for such a long time at a supermarket before. It was soooo crowded! I stood in line for about freaking 20 minutes before paying for my 2 items at the counter. What a pain! Halloween in La Verne is just so crazy! I've never seen that many people in one block of street trick-or-treating before (Bonita and E Street to White St.) Together, Omar and his front-house neighbor spent about 100 dollars tonight on just candy alone! And even with that much spent, we ran out of candy an hour and a half into the madness rampage by the cute little kids in costumes. Half of the time tonight, we spent sitting on the front porch turning kids away because we ran out of candy...we felt pretty bad and decided to leave the house and walked around the block trick-or-treating candy from other houses so we can have some to give out at Omar's house. Just kidding, although it would've been pretty funny. We speculated that all of the decked-out houses in Halloween decorations probably spent more than a few hundred of dollars each on candy alone tonight. Especially, these decked-out houses are the ones that the kids will definitely hit first! That's just insane in my opinion at how much people spent on candy tonight! Later, Melissa, Omar's little sister, and her friends who were dressed up as fairies, came by to trick-or-treat at Omar's new neighborhood. Wow...time flies by so quickly, it was only just the other day that Melissa was still in elementary. She's now a sophomore in high school. Like I told Omar, man oh man, everyone is growing up so fast and we are growing older everyday. It's scary... --------- Election in 1 day so go vote people! ------ Comments

That is the meanest bitch I've come across in my youth. I have no doubts that she deserves a harmless little prank The dark side is tempting but, I can't get myself to do it. I gotta stay good.

Geeez Son, You've been busy man...but sounds like you had a great time. So were you dressed as a pumpkin or what?
Son - November 1, 2004 10:36 PM
Darren...yeah "harmless" little prank! Live Nude People were good but they could've been much better without clothes on! C...Yeah looking back now when I wrote this entry, I realized that I was pretty busy...didn't think I was at the time though. And naw I was no pumpkin! I was a Mexican with maracas! Joe, the host, who was Mexican, came up to me during the party and told me that I did a bad job this morning in the yard and I replied that I was to come back the next day with my equipment to fix it!
