I feel like I should write on recent happenings. Or on something, anything, whatever, just an excuse to write. Tons of things here and there happening everywhere, and it's awesome. But obviously before I go any further, best of all - it's cold, it's crisp, it's December. It wins
Black Friday was epic. Ngo and a handful of the usual suspects from last year's outing were in attendance towitness the miracle of camp-out gaming... in Mike Ngo's trunk. If there was better way to spend my time sitting on my butt out in 40 degree weather all night in Sunnyvale anticipating impending doom, I sure as heck didn't spend enough time thinking of it.
As always, it was basically just for the experience and not so much for the consumer whoring. Well, ehh... mostly - I made away with a set of Logitech 5.1 THX speakers for $50 and 500 gigs worth of external HD goodness for $80 after rebates, which compared to last year, was pretty much awesometastic. And at this rate, I'll theoretically be up to 2.5 TB by the time next BF rolls around... ayaa. Somebody suggest me more useless crap to download so I don't feel guilty with hundreds of unused gigs.
Keeping on the pointless-standing-in-line tip, Anthony, his friend and I made it to Santa Ramen's grand re-opening this past Saturday. I'll tell ya, not many things in this world can get me motivated enough to wake up before the crack of noon on a Saturday, but for keeping my fandom true and business continuously contributed to my favorite restaurant, I would've given up a winning lotto ticket. Honestly dude. My loyalty runs deep.
Whilst fighting off the urge to slice the throats of all the "friends" of the first party in line cutting with them (which is more intricately documented within my Yelp review), the feeling was that of everything I was expecting it to be - the same crack-in-a-bowl deliciousness even God himself could not deny, now served within finer ambiance and a sleeker decor. Everything consumable is more or less the same, as it should be. The only changes, outside of a slight price hike, are just more kinds of sprinkles on the icing on the cake. We almost went again for dinner, hahaha.
Other than that... ehh. Not too much else interesting to dwell on, I guess. Life's been going as great as it could be. Still unrelationship'd, so nothing to report on that front. Maybe soon though. I think I'm pissing off some other people more than I am myself about not caring... yeesh.
I'm liking my new living arrangements for the most part. I'm saving a good chunk of scratch on commuting by living within walking distance of a Caltrain station and a T-line stop. Also getting more into the music producing thing, bit by bit. I think I'm almost regretting not taking the LA job opportunity, but don't let me fool you just yet ;D... I'm really just getting jealous of the LA dnb scene and not being able to brock out with Devon in it. I've got nobody here that shares the same affinity for the scene nearly as much as I do, and it being probably my most major hobby now, it's a kick in the nuts going alone to clubs in the bay to see dj's rinse out. Sigh.
Yeesh, this is getting scattered. Oh! One more thing... I might actually be moving to Tokyo sometime in the near future. I'm not letting myself get too excited or anything... but it might as well be the coolest thing ever. =D Hooray for possibly un-borifying Keina!
