Anyhow, I'm broke as heck, I've been eating out for the past 5 or so days straight! Let's see...Thursday, Denny's (previous post)! Friday, went out with some old coworkers to celebrate my buddy, Jeremy's Birthday at Shogun around noon. Later that day, I joined up with Omar, Angelic, and Kim at Hero's in Claremont for dinner. The next day, Saturday, I went...wait a minute, I forgot already, maybe I didn't go out at all on Saturday. Oh! I remember, Saturday, I went out with Angelic and Kim to the nearby Island's for some delicious burgers! I was going to go dancing later that night but the food coma got to me before dinner was over, so we ended up hitting the local Starbuck's in La Verne. And on Sunday, after a brief dance rehearsal for the dance team, I met up with Darren, Derek, and Dexter at Red Robin in Irvine. So funny, we were so flirting with the waitress while talking smack about girls and their mysterious ways!

Francis and Jeremy. Brian and me (I look high!)

Actually, from my brilliant recollection of the past days, I did stay home on Monday and did "try" catching up on some readings for my class (I shall not disclose the result of this but I think you all can sorta figure out how it went! ). Tuesday, got out of my last class and felt that I should stay in Irvine for a while before heading back in the crappy traffic on the 91. So I decided to head toward the Santa Ana, Costa Mesa where Darren's at. We were going to try this new restaurant down there but that place shut down sometimes ago. So...disappointed we were, we settled for some good old Vietnamese broken rice down in Little Saigon. It has been quite a while since I've been to this place. I was with a special someone last time I was there...that place holds some good'ole memories...

Holy crap, now I wonder why I'm so broke! I don't even have a job at the moment!

Oh and by the way, I had to replace my car's engine recently as of this past weekend. The old one was spilling out coolant way too much, and driving it would risk my ass being stranded in the middle of nowhere overheating. Hopefully the new engine will last me for a while, before I can really afford to get myself a new car one day.

Here is the picture of my old engine, it lasted me for approximately 7 long years! We've been through thick and thin, I tell you! I swear, I feel like everything that's been with me for a long while is slowly departing from my being one after another. (Sig. Other, Job, School, now...car's engine) I'm so crazy!

VTEC baby! My new engine is actually a 2.3 Liter! I so not feel any differences though!

Also, I'd like to say thanks to my cousin, Baga (nickname!), in Vietnam for sending me this over New Year. Thanks man! If you ever read this. Hope you have fun with the Compact Flash card I smuggled...ummm...I mean sent to you!
