Thanks for taking the weight off my shoulders. I was wrong.

Facing Future

So I guess this day had to happen at some point. I got to say that seeing you ruined my night but maybe it was something I needed. This isn't something I need to worry about fear every day . I think I took it as best as I could. Maybe in some weird way, this was bittersweet.

These Are The Best Days Of Our Lives

Sorry for the lack of updates. The usual excuse, been busy/lazy.

A quick but meaningful update. This year has come and gone. Like the economy this year has been a downward spiral for me however I am optimistic for 2009 and hopefully that will continue in the theme for the upcoming year.

Family: More than ever, i've discovered how important they are to me. As my brother goes off to college, i'm left with the realization that I am only getting older. This leaves me with the phrase from "In This Diary" by the Ataris:

"These are the best days of our lives.
The only thing that matters is following your heart
And eventually you'll finally get it right"

I don't want to live life with regret. I'm going to live my dreams and try to stay optomistic.

Friends: Couldn't live without them. I should really be a better one and make the extra effort to keep in touch.

Work: I love my job. Hopefully this takes me to where I want to be.

School: What can I say, I am hard headed. I need to experience things first hand/ hands on before listening to advice.

There is so much more thoughts I want to write but i'm updating from work... might get around to editing it later.

Happy New Year

DXC!!!

I meant to update but as usual laziness got in the way.

Past Saturday was DunkxChange

It's basically a sneaker buy/sell/trade event that travels around the country. They flaked the past couple of years but alas they finally came and of all places, it was held at (H)O Lounge :/.

Thanks to fellow ISSer and blogger Ankle (don't beat my ass) for the pics. Sorry, due to the imaging of the pics, they are partially cut off. Click for full view.


Bottom of the ramp


In line. Waited over half an hour because DXC wasn't ready


Amongst Friends, Geces, Bryson, CJ got a booth. Major heat!!!


Scotto's Michael Laus


Heat that I can't afford


Vendors and Stage


We teamed up and put all our kicks on the floor. I think we sold more than some vendors :O. Josh's brother on the couch with my legs right next to him

Thoughts on DXC: It was a nice event to go to, but quite a hefty entrance price at $10, which probably deterred some people. Hopefully they keep coming back to HI. It was a success for me because I sold my Tiffs and Hawaiis but some of my fellow ISSers didn't sell any.


I was going to do a mega post and put some food updates but i'll save that for another post.

Judo

I went back to Judo today. I believe I am in the worst shape of my life. Time to get back into the groove.
