Thank you Junior for my very 1st SF hoodie!



We went out late the night before and went to some little town into a little cut bar, posted up at the bar and watched the last half of the Celtics VS Lakers game and ate some good pizza and wings! The bar itself was kinda dead but everyone there was watching the game and was madd hating on the Lakers ( AS EVERYONE SHOULD... but let's not get into that. Lakers fans: We'll agree to disagree, mmk?). I have to say, the irish bartender made me some of the best highballs I've ever had: Double Rum with diet coke and pineapple - Tastes like sugar cane.. real talk! Then the next concoctions he made was called the " Bananarama" which consistent of captain morgan, peach schnapps, organge juice and pineapple juice- AMAZING! I highly recommend it!

After that, they took me to a bunch of lovely spots: we went to Stow Lake, where Junior was telling me and Boogs about " The Lady in White" - the whole shabam about that is that this lady had 2 kids and they went off into the lake and were playing, but drowned. Shes apparently still earthbound and lingers around the lake looking for her kids. Unfortunately, we didnt get to see " The Lady In White" but we did see the statue of her and her kids, it was kinda freaky! hahaha Junior tried to scare the shit outta me, but ended up freaking out Boogie; you just kinda had to be there.

We then proceeded to Turtle Hill: not a tourist spot, but its where all the locals go to see the beautiful view of most of SF. Its a pretty high spot cause there were madd flights of stairs... i think i worked off all the good food i ate that day. it was hella windy and we chilled there and had a couple smokes and then bounced.

this picture doesn't justify how beautiful Coit Tower looks.


Next spot we went to was Coit Tower, that was amazing to see at night... HOLY MOLY! i wish i brought my SLR at the time because i would have been able to get many sick shots, i did manage to get some dope shots with the blackberry, so i'll post those up when i get home. stayed there for a bit and then proceeded to the crocked street in SF - Lombard street. Boogie and Junior told me to drive down... I said " HA. F*ck that noise!" it was pretty crazy... if you were drunk... driving down that thing would sober you up, for sure! after that... we just called it a night! END OF DAY 2!!!

Alright, Day 3... I'll write that up later on tonight, I took tons of Dope pictures, so ya'll are in for a treat! Stay Tuned!

I'm Going ... Going, Back ... Back to Cali.. Cali!





That's right folks, yet again, and as I do every year... I'm headed back to California!! This trip was really intended to visit friends, I think the past couple of years that I've gone, it's been overkill on the shopping. My sister knows how I shop so I think I've been to every single mall there is in the OC area... I know... Horrible!

This year I have taken a different approach, I purposely left all my credit cards at home and have come with cash with that being specifically used for activities. I going all out on the sight seeing and we'll leave the shopping for another time.

1st stop, the Frisco area! I'm excited actually because this is my 1st time to Northern California. I have some distance fam bam there, but this is strictly to visit Bay area friends and let them show me around. I know as corny as it sounds, I wanna see the Golden Gate bridge and hit up the academy of science, see korea town, etc!! Hella excited!! I'll be staying with good friend Boogie who I know has tons of things for us to do and for me to see.

Keep you guys posted... im about to board the plane ... Portland... please be good to me, dont let me gauge my eyes out for the 2 hours im there!!!

*CROSS FINGERS* Please.. Please let me sit beside someone cute! :P
