56K WARNING! Great end of the week and start of break.

Greeaat weekend:
  
On Friday, I hung out with Josh, Danny, Nianne, Ralph, and Jin. We pretty much chilled at my house and played wii and whatnot. After that we had to go pick up Jin's car at the tire place but we only had 10 minutes so we sort of sped. After that we ate at McDonalds. Me and Danny tried McGang-Bangs (McChicken stuffed into a McDouble.) Shit almost gave me a heart-attack I swear.. After that we chilled at Jin's for a little before going to the school for the Key Club ice skating party thing. Met up Germaine and Arthur at the school, then Meghan met us up at Sprinker. Ice skating was hella fun. It took me a while to get the hang of it. All these little kids though, probably like 5 or 6 years old just passing through me and spinning and whatnot made me feel like a friggin noob. I fell once too. I did the can-can kicks then landed on my side. It was hilarious. I have some pics, but their more of random things going on and the batteries died right before we went to go ice-skating.. My batteries fail.


On Saturday, from the early morning, the family was cleaning and cooking for my birthday party. Me and G said we were going to buy a cake, but just left. We got hungry so we went to Happy Teryaki on 100th St. That place is hella bomb. Crunch roll & yummy-yummy roll for $8.99 FTMFW. We stayed hella long over there because we were engaged in such deep random conversations. They kept trying to make us leave almost haha. After that, we went to Uncle Caesar's house to pick up the behemoth 20 cup rice cooker then picked up some suman and papait for the party. Got home, and did some more cleaning and cooking. People started to come. Ate with the friends and familia. They friggin smashed cake in my face, then we chilled in my room and got tickled to death. I helped Meghan with her stye. It was pretty funny. I told her to hot-compress her eye and we just chilled in the bathroom for the longest time. I sat on the toilet like I was pooping as a joke and people hella walked by. As people left, we migrated downstairs again and ate and played telephone. Twas a joyous time. Ralph and Meghan were the last to leave. After everyone left, me and Domenic set on an adventure to find Arnold Palmer. We went to 4 friggin stores at midnight.. then came home, ate, chilled with Arnold, listened to music, and knocked out.

*Some photo cred goes out to Danny, Ralph, Jin, Maya?, Josh?, and Joyce. If I forgot you, just let me know.
















On Sunday, woke up and went to church. Came home and Domenic had a senior portrait photoshoot done by our cousin Kevin Q. Check out his work at http://c-and-kphotography.com/. He has some pretty dope stuff. But anyways, the photoshoot was funny today. Domenic didn't tell me until probably midnight last night that the photoshoot would be done in my room haha. He was hella unprepared for anything. Kevin dropped by and started setting up and Domenic didn't even have any outfits. As Kevin set up, me and Domenic went to Wal-Mart to find some clothes haha. I found some flannels but they only had like 2XL and 3XL haha. Domenic ended up getting a Russel Simmons sweater. On the ride home he kept ranting about how gay Russel Simmons was, but turns out he was talking about Richard Simmons hahaha. When it came to photoshoot time, Kevin let me play with his lenses. Maaann.. I was in heaven. Some of these pics were from his lenses. He had a Nikkor AF-S 18-35mm f/3.5-5.6 which was a pretty standard kit lens that came with his D80, a vintage Nikkor AI-S 50mm f/1.8 which was weird because I had to use full manual to shoot with because the camera said that there was no lens attatched. He also had a friggin monstrous Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8. That lens was friggin tight. Hella sharp, and hella fast, but also really heavy. My camera looked like Megatron or something, and I thought it was gonna crush it haha. After Domenic did his shoot, Kevin let the family take a family picture to replace the one in our hallway where I'm like 10 years old or something haha. Pictures came out really nicely besides the fact I was chinky in the one that they liked most.. Then Domenic and I got to do a shoot. We sort of looked like hype-beasts with our matching hoodies, beanies, and dunk hi's. But it's all good in the hood. I had fun. After all that, my dad was looking online for a D90!! WOOOOO!! I might be able to upgrade, and Andrea even wants to buy my D60! Thankk youu!! But anyway.. After the shoot, me and Domenic headed out to get Arnold Palmer again, and went to Wal-Mart to return his sweater before he left back to Redmond. After that, I stayed at home and then Danny, Nianne, and Jong came by to hang out. We ate and watched Jumper. Uggh.. I'm in love with Rachel Bilson. :). But I fell asleep. Sorry guys.. and now I am blogging. That was pretty much my day haha.
*Thanks again Kevin for the free shoot for our family portrait.
