THATS ROUGH

SO TOTALLY GOING TO LIVE UP TO THE NAME OF RANDOMNESS TODAY. BASICALLY MY FAMILY HAS BEEN HAVING WEEKLY FAMILY DINNERS SINCE MY NEPHEWS BEEN BORN. I GET TO SEE MY NEPHEW AND HANG OUT AND PLAY WITH HIM. PLUS GET TO HAVE DINNER WITH EVERYONE AND JUST CHILL OUT. SINCE THIS ONE RESTAURANT WAS HAVING RENOVATIONS, WE ENDED UP TRYING DIFFERENT PLACES. THIS ONE CHINESE PLACE WAS ALRIGHT AND WE WENT BACK A COUPLE OF TIMES. FIRST TIME THERE WERE 2 TABLES IN THERE. SECOND TIME THERE WAS NO ONE, AND LAST WEEK THERE WAS NO ONE EITHER. I JUST GO IN TO PICK UP TAKEOUT. I DONT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THEM NOT BEING BUSY BUT THAT MUST BE ROUGH. AN ENTIRE NIGHT WITHOUT A CUSTOMER, OR JUST ONE. YOUR OVERHEAD WOULD BE KILLING YOU. TAKE PAY AND ALL THAT OUT AND JUST SAY ITS A FAMILY BUSINESS. MY ONE TAKEOUT ISNT GOING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LONG RUN. MY QUESTION IS HOW THE HELL DO THEY SURVIVE... THERE IS A TON OF CHINESE RESTAURANTS NEARBY AND THEY ALL SELLING THE SAME THING. HOW DO THEY SURVIVE. LETS JUST SAY THEY ARE ALL LEGAL AND UNDER THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES. CHINESE RESTAURANTS ARE USUALLY QUIETER ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY, DEPENDS WHERE WEDNESDAY IS A HIT OR MISS. WEEKEND AND SO ON SHOULD BE BUSY. THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS WHERE THEY ARE JUST BUSY ALL THE TIME. THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS IS DO ANY OF YOU EVER FEEL SAD FOR THEM? FOR EXAMPLE YOU SEE THEM WITH NO CUSTOMERS AND ITS SUPER QUIET. IT ALMOST MAKES YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT AND TRY TO HELP, BUT THAT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE. HOW DO YOU DETERMINE WHO GETS HELP AND SO FORTH. YA IT SUCKS THAT NOT EVERY PLACE CAN BE BUSY AND MAKING MONEY BUT THERES JUST TOO MANY OF THEM. WE DIDNT END UP GOING THAT PLACE, WE WENT TO A NEW PLACE, BUT I WONDER WHAT THAT RESTAURANT THINK... I WONDER IF THEY WERE ASKING WHERE I WAS...

THE SAME GOES TO BUSINESSES. YOU KNOW SOMETIMES YOU SEE BUSINESSES AND YOU THINK "HOW ON EARTH ARE THEY SURVIVING" ITS THE SAME AS ABOVE. ITS HARD TO BE SUCCESSFUL. ITS JUST ROUGH. THEN THERES THE OTHER TYPE OF BUSINESS AND YOU JUST THINK THEY SHOULDNT BE IN BUSINESS LOL. NOT QUITE IF THIS MADE SENSE SINCE I JUST WOKE UP FROM A NAP AND IM HELLA TIRED. BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN HELP EVERYONE, AND ITS KINDA SUCKS BECAUSE YOU CANT HELP THEM. THEN AGAIN HOW MUCH CAN YOU REALLY HELP... AND YOURE STILL BUSY HELPING YOURSELF.

MIGHT HAVE MISCOUNTED

SO I HAD MY BDAY DINNER THE PAST WEEKEND AND FROM ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WAS INVITED... EVERYONE SHOWED UP!!! THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE... EVERYONE AND I MEAN EVERYONE THAT WAS INVITED SHOWED UP... IM PRETTY SURPRISED LOL. USUALLY THERES A FEW THAT CANT MAKE IT DUE TO WORK OR OTHER PRIORITIES OR COMMITMENTS BUT EVERYONE SHOWED. IT WAS NICE OF THEM ALL BEING ABLE TO MAKE IT. WHICH LED TO THE TABLE BEING QUITE PACKED... WE MIGHT HAVE MISCOUNTED THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE... SO 17 PEOPLE INCLUDING US SHOWED UP AND THE ROOM COULD FIT 12... 14... COMFORTABLY LOL WE ALREADY HAD THE BIGGEST TABLE THEY HAD... OPPS... WELL ANYWAYS WE MADE IT WORK. KOREAN BBQ WOOOOOOO. I WANT TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO THE GF WHO BASICALLY PLANNED THE WHOLE DINNER SINCE I DIDNT PLAN IT. I WAS GOING TO PLAN IT BUT THEN SHE BEAT ME TO IT LOL. SHE ALSO GOT THE CAKE AND EVERYTHING TOO. LASTLY NOT TO MENTION THE AWESOME BIRTHDAY PRESENT :) A PAIR OF SALVATORE FERRAGAMO DRESS SHOES AND BOY DO THEY LOOK, SMELL, AND FEEL NICE. THEY SO NICE THAT I DONT WANT TO WEAR THEM... I JUST WANT TO PUT THEM IN A SEE THROUGH CASE AND PUT THEM ON DISPLAY LOL.

2 MOVIES, A WEDDING, AND A DINNER

QUITE A BUSY WEEK ACTUALLY. PRETTY TIRED AS WELL... SOOOO LETS SEE WHAT WE GOT. SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

IT!!! YES THE MOVIE IT. GOT A CHANCE TO WATCH IT ON A THURSDAYYY!!! IN D-BOX!!! OMG!!! LOL AND TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS, LIKE HELL I WOULD GO AND PAY FULL PRICE FOR THE MOVIE LOL. THE MOVIES $25 FOR D-BOX ON A REGULAR NIGHT... WENT WITH THE GF AND USED SOME OF OUR FREE PASSES FROM THAT TIME THE POWER WENT OUT... THE MOVIE STARS A BUNCH OF NEW KIDS AND BILL SKARSGARD. I LIKED THE MOVIE. IT WAS MORE OF A GROWING UP MOVIE WHERE EVERYONE HAS TO WORK WITH EACH OTHER TO ACHIEVE A GOAL. SOME OF THE REVIEWS SAY ITS A COMING OF AGE MOVIE, AND I AGREE. THE KIDS GROW BEFORE YOU EYES AND REALIZE LIFE AND THE LOSS OF INNOCENCE IS EVIDENT IN THE MOVIE. ONE THING I LEARNED IN HIGH SCHOOL IS WHEN IN DOUBT, ALWAYS WRITE THE LOSS OF INNOCENCE. IT WORKS ALL THE TIME, AND WHEN IT DOESNT... STILL PRETEND THAT IT DOES LOL. THE MOVIE WAS SET IN THE 80S, AND SHOWS THE KIDS DOING A LOT OF THINGS THAT KIDS NOWADAYS DONT DO. IT WAS A DIFFERENT GENERATION. IT - THE CLOWN, WAS PRETTY CREEPY. THE WAY HE WAS KILLING KIDS AND EVERYTHING WAS JUST FANTASTIC. IT MADE BOTH THE GF AND ME LAUGH WHILE SOME PEOPLE CRINGED AND SORTA GAVE US A WEIRD LOOK... PSHHH LOL. THERES QUITE A LOT OF SPECIAL EFFECTS AND CG IN IT, BUT IT STILL MADE IT LOOK PARANORMAL. IT WAS DONE WELL AND DIDNT LOOK TOO FAKE TO THE POINT THAT YOU JUST ASK WHY DID THEY EVEN BOTHER. OVERALL IT WAS A PRETTY GOOD MOVIE, IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT SCARIER BUT I GUESS FOR THIS TONE IT WAS FINE. IT WAS MORE FOCUSED ON THE KIDS STORY LINE THAN IT. I GIVE THIS A 8.9/10. VERY SOLID MOVIE.

NEXT UP IS MOTHER! THIS STARS JENNIFER LAWRENCE, JAVIER BARDEM, MICHELLE PFEIFFER, AND ED HARRIS. WHERE DO I EVEN START... THE MOVIE HAD SO MUCH POTENTIAL... HERE WE THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE A SCARY SUPER NATURAL PARANORMAL MOVIE... ANDDDDDDDDDDD INSTEAD IT WAS... I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO CALL IT... THE BEST WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT IS A BIG KERFUFFLE OF RANDOM INCOHERENT OVER THE TOP NEVER WOULD HAPPEN GET OUT OF MY HOUSE YOURE AN IDIOT OR WAS IT BRILLIANT FLABBERGAST COMMINGLE OF CRAZINESS. HONESTLY THAT WOULD NOT HAPPEN AND THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS WOULD NOT CHANGE THAT QUICK. I WOULD SAY A THIRD OF THE MOVIE WAS JUST A BUNCH OF RANDOM SHIT HAPPENING AND NO ONE KNOWS WHATS GOING ON... WELL... NO ONE EXCEPT DARREN ARONOFSKY... I MEAN HES A GOOD DIRECTOR... LOOK AT BLACK SWAN... THEN AGAIN THERE WAS NOAH BUT STILL LIKED THAT TOO HAHA. SO JAVIER INVITES ED IN AND THEN IT JUST SNOWBALLS INTO A BIGGER AND BIGGER RANDOMNESS AND WHEN THEIR KID DIES IT JUST TURNS INTO A CLUSTER FUCK OF RANDOMNESS THAT COULD ONLY COME FROM A DISTURBED PERSON... IN OTHER WORDS I COULD HAVE MADE SOMETHING SO RANDOM... I MEAN ITS EVEN IN MY BLOG NAME... LOGIC... WHAT LOGIC... AND RICKYS RANDOMNESS!!! ITS BEYOND RANDOM... EVERYTHING JUST HAPPENS REALLY QUICKLY AND IN THE END JENNIFER JUST LIGHTS THE WHOLE DAM PLACE ON FIRE. I FIGURED THAT WOULD HAPPEN AND THAT I THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS THE HOUSE. WHICH SORT OF MADE SENSE. THEN TURNS OUT SHE BECOMES THE STONE, WHICH I ALSO SORT OF FIGURED AS WELL. IN OTHER WORDS SHE IS THE HOUSE AND THAT EVERYTHING JAVIER LOST IS JENNIFER AND HIS CHILD, WHICH IS WHY HE ACTS THE WAY HE IS. IT ALSO MAKES HIM NOT HUMAN OR AT LEAST HE MANIFESTS THESE OBJECTS TO REPLACE WHAT HE LOST, BUT WHAT DID HE SAY TO JENNIFER WHEN SHE ASKED WHAT IS HE? CAUSE I COULDNT HEAR IT PROPERLY. ITS NOT TIME TRAVEL, ITS MORE SUPER NATURAL IN THAT CASE. THE STONE IS REBIRTH AND IT JUST GOES AROUND IN CIRCLE OVER AND OVER AGAIN? THATS WHY JAVIER DOESNT CARE AND JUST ACTS THE WAY HE DOES, BECAUSE ITS JUST ALL REPEATING... HE KNOWS ITS REPEATING... IS IT AN INFINITE LOOP? IS HE STUCK? WAS HE JUST SUPPOSE TO WRITE HIS POEM? DOES HE REMEMBER THE PAST? I THINK IN A WAY HES JUST PRESERVING HIS MEMORY... A TERRIBLE AND DISTORTED SENSELESS MEMORY. IN THE END EVERY TIME IT RESETS, THERES A NEW JENNIFER EACH TIME SO THAT MEANS THEY CANT AND NEVER ACTUALLY EXISTED. I WOULD SAY THE MOVIE WAS CONFUSING AND HAD TOO MUCH GOING ON. JENNIFER PLAYS TOO MUCH OF A USELESS GIRL. I GIVE THIS MOVIE A 3.5/10... YES... IT WAS THAT DISAPPOINTING. I HAD SUCH HIGH HOPES FOR THIS MOVIE AND IT JUST TURNS OUT TO BE A FLOP...

SO ONE OF MY COWORKERS GOT MARRIED ON THE WEEKEND AND I WAS ONE OF THE GROOMSMEN. I WAS ALSO ASKED TO MC THEIR RECEPTION, AND THAT WENT GREAT. THE GAMES WENT SMOOTHLY AND EVERYONE ENJOYED IT. MOST OF THE OLD PEOPLE LEFT AND LATER IT WAS JUST THE REGULAR PEOPLE WHO ENDED UP DRINKING, DRINKING, AND KEPT DRINKING. IT WAS AN INTERESTING NIGHT LOL. CONGRATS TO THE LUCKY COUPLE.

EARLIER TONIGHT WE HAD A FAMILY DINNER AT CLOUD 9 REVOLVING RESTAURANT. I THOUGHT I HAVE NEVER BEEN BUT MY MOM JUST TOLD ME THAT I HAVE BEEN THERE A BUNCH OF TIMES... I TOTALLY BLANKED ON IT AND I REALLY DONT THINK I DID... EITHER WAY IT WAS COOL TO GO BEFORE THEY CLOSE UP SHOP. SO AFTER 40+ YEARS THE PLACE IS GETTING TORN DOWN TO BUILD NEW CONDOS TOWERS AND A BUNCH OF RETAIL UNITS ON THE GROUND LEVEL. THE RESTAURANT IS ON THE 42ND FLOOR AND TAKES 80 MINUTES TO DO ONE FULL ROTATION. THE PLACE IS PRETTY DATED AND IS PRETTY WORN OUT. I GUESS SINCE THEY ARE CLOSING AT THE END OF THE MONTH THEY REALLY DONT CARE ANYMORE... SERVICE WAS BAD, FOOD WAS ALRIGHT, WASHROOMS WERE GROSS. YOU CAN TELL THE AMOUNT OF FUCKS THE HAVE LEFT TO GIVE... ITS A BIG FAT 0. THESE 70S REVOLVING RESTAURANT IS THE LAST OF ITS KIND, AND THEY ABOUT TO LOSE ANOTHER ONE. OVERALL IT WAS PRETTY FUN. AT LEAST NOW I CAN SAY THAT IVE GONE THERE LOL.

ALRIGHT GOODNIGHT ALL. IVE PASSED OUT ABOUT A DOZEN TIMES, SO NOW FINALLY TIME TO SLEEP.

DINNER THEATRE

SO THE PAST WEEKEND THE GF ALONG WITH WITH ANOTHER FRIEND TOOK ME AND MY BUDDY TO THE GIGGLE DAM. IT WAS A SURPRISE THING AND THEY DIDNT TELL US ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE ONLY THING THEY TOLD ME WAS TO DRIVE TO THIS WAY AND THAT. WE ENDED UP IN PORT COQUITLAM AND ENDED UP GOING TO THIS PLACE CALLED THE THE GIGGLE DAM. ITS A COMEDY DINNER THEATRE. THEY BASICALLY FEED YOU AND THEY PUT ON A SHOW. IT WAS MOST DEFINITELY SOMETHING DIFFERENT!!! WE WERE 1 OF 2 TABLES THAT WERE NOT WHITE... LOL IT WAS ALL MIDDLE AGED WHITE PEOPLE... AND US LOL. WE WERE SO OUT OF PLACE LOOKING. ANYWAYS THE FOOD WAS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD. THE MAPLE SALMON WAS AMAZING AND THE POP CAME IN A HUGE MASON JAR. APPARENTLY THEY COME UP WITH A NEW SHOW ALL THE TIME AND THIS TIME WAS CALLED "DAM THE OPPOSITE SEX" AND MADE FUN OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GUYS AND GALS. THE COOL THING ABOUT THIS PLACE WAS THAT THEY HAVE A LOT OF AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION. MOST OF THE TABLES THERE WERE EITHER THERE FOR A BIRTHDAY OR A STAG/STAGETTE TYPE THING. I GUESS THIS IS WHAT THEY DO OUT IN POCO ON A SATURDAY NIGHT LOL. SO THEY DO A BUNCH OF GENDER REVERSALS SKIT, JOKES TYPE DEAL AND THEN HAVE A BUNCH OF SONGS THEY SING. IT WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY IMPRESSIVE FOR SOME OF THE SONGS. THIS WAS SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND NOT NORMAL TO WHAT WE WOULD HAVE DONE. IT WAS REALLY FUN JUST TRYING SOMETHING ELSE OUT.

PASSED OUT HERE, PASSED OUT THERE, JUST PASSING OUT EVERYWHERE, AND NEED TO PASS OUT SOME MORE. GOODNIGHT!!! LOL

POST #300!!!

WOW!!! I CANT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS POST #300!!! ALMOST 6 YEARS OF POSTS, ONCE A WEEK, EVERY WEEK WITHOUT FAIL. THIS IS REALLY THE ONLY THING THAT I HAVE KEPT UPDATED. EVERYONE THAT I KNEW WHO BLOGGED HAS LONG LEFT BLOGGING, BUT I STAYED AND KEPT THIS GOING. I WANTED TO THANK ALL YOU READERS OUT THERE. ITS KNOWING SOMEONE OUT THERE WILL READ IT AND MAYBE YOU MADE THEM THINK. ITS ALSO JUST SOMETHING THAT I DECIDED TO KEEP GOING, JUST HAVE SOMETHING PUT ON PAPER AND SAY THAT I KEPT WITH AND DIDNT QUIT. IM ACTUALLY PASSING OUT RIGHT NOW BUT I NEED TO DO THIS!!! IVE MENTIONED IT BEFORE, I REALLY DONT KNOW HOW MUCH LONGER THAT I WILL KEEP BLOGGING. ITS HONESTLY AN OUTLET FOR ME. YOU CAN ALL SEE THAT I USE TO POST MEANINGFUL POSTS OR UPDATE ABOUT MY LIFE, BUT NOW ITS MOSTLY ABOUT MOVIE REVIEWS. I REALLY WANT TO GET BACK TO THOSE DAYS, BUT I JUST DONT HAVE THE TIME OR ENERGY TO DO THAT. WHO KNOWS, MAYBE IL CHANGE THE WAY I BLOG OR JUST BLOG LESS OFTEN. ONLY TIME WILL TELL WHAT I DO, BUT DONT WORRY GUYS AND GALS, YOU ALL WILL BE THE FIRST TO KNOW!!! :)

SMALL QUICK MOVIE REVIEW ON "THE HOUSE" THAT I WATCHED LAST NIGHT WITH THE GF. THERES SO MANY MOVIES OUT RIGHT NOW... HOW ARE WE SUPPOSE TO WATCH IT ALL!?!?! ANYWAYS THIS STARS WILL FERRELL, AMY POEHLER, AND JASON MANTZOUKAS. BASICALLY WILL AND AMY'S DAUGHTER WHOS PLAYED BY RYAN SIMPKINS, GOT INTO UNIVERSITY BUT THEY DONT HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR IT, SO THEY DECIDE TO MAKE THEIR OWN UNDERGROUND CASINO. THEN A LOT OF SHENANIGANS HAPPEN THROUGHOUT. IN THE MOVIE RYAN SIMPKINS LOOKS AND SOUNDS LIKE NINA DOBREV. I SWEAR THE WHOLE TIME I THOUGHT IT WAS NINA BUT IT COULDNT BE... AND IT WASNT LOL. IF ANY OF YOU ARE GOING TO WATCH IT, JUST CHECK IT OUT. IT SOUNDS AND LOOKS LIKE NINA. THE MOVIE IS A BIT RANDOM, AND IT HAS ITS FUNNY POINTS. IT DOESNT REALLY TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED AFTER AND SOME OF THE STORY POINTS JUST WASNT THOUGHT OUT PROPERLY. IF YOU WANT A MOVIE THAT YOU DONT HAVE TO THINK AND JUST ENJOY, THEN I WOULD SAY WATCH THIS MOVIE. I MEAN ITS FUNNY, BUT SOME OF WILL FERRELL'S OTHER MOVIES IS BETTER. I GIVE THIS A 7.18/10.

SO THE PAST WEEKEND I WON TICKETS TO THE COMEDY MIX. LETS JUST SAY THAT THIS TIME WAS MUCH MUCH FUNNIER THAN THE FIRST TIME I WENT. THIS TIME THEY HAD DAN QUINN, SOMEONE IVE HEARD OF AND SEEN ON TV BEFORE. NOT JUST HE WAS FUNNY, BUT MOST OF THE COMEDIANS THAT NIGHT WERE PRETTY GOOD. OH I ALSO HAD TO GET A NEW TIRE AGAIN... YUP... AGAIN... ANYWAYS THIS TIME ITS A PROBLEM WITH THE TIRE ITSELF. THERES A PLACE WHERE A BUBBLE HAS FORMED AND IT JUST DOESNT LOOK RIGHT. SO EITHER WAY I BROUGHT THE CAR IN AND GOT A NEW TIRE... CATCH IS THAT THEY DONT HAVE IT IN STOCK AND HAD TO ORDER IT... SO BASICALLY I WAS ON A DONUT FOR 4 DAYS BEFORE I GOT THE NEW TIRE TODAY. SINCE THEN, ITS BEEN PRETTY GOOD. OH OH OH ALSO TODAY I HAD DINNER WITH A GOOD FRIEND I HAVENT SEEN IN A WHILE. IT WAS NICE CATCHING UP AND TALKING ABOUT RANDOMNESS AND JUST ADULTING LOL. NOW SLEEP AND BACK TO THE GRIND.

TOJO'S

SO I JUST GOT HOME FROM THE BEST JAPANESE SUSHI MEAL EVER!!! THIS IS GOING TO BE A SHORT POST JUST BECAUSE IM FULL AND IM TIRED :) IF YOU DONT KNOW, TOJOS IS HIDEKAZU TOJO RESTAURANT HERE IN VANCOUVER. HE IS CREDITED WITH THE CREATION OF THE CALIFORNIA ROLL AND THE BC ROLL. WE WENT THERE AND GOT THE OMAKASE, WHICH IS THE JAPANESE TERM FOR "I'LL LEAVE IT TO YOU." SO WE HAD NO IDEA WHAT OUR MEAL WAS GOING TO BE BECAUSE WE LEFT IT IN THE CHEFS HANDS. WE BASICALLY LEFT IT TO THE CHEF TO DECIDE WHAT TO SERVE US. IT WAS DEFINITELY AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE. WE DIDNT KNOW WHAT WE WERE GOING TO GET AND AFTER EACH DISH IT JUST MADE US WONDER WHAT WAS NEXT. I SORTA LOST TRACK OF HOW MANY COURSES WE HAD BUT AT LAST COUNT IM PRETTY SURE IT WAS ABOUT 12... YES!!! 12 COURSES!!! HAHA. I WOULD LOVE TO POST ALL THE PICTURES BUT THAT TAKES TOO MUCH TIME THESE DAYS SO YOURE GONNA HAVE TO FIND MY SNAPCHAT AND INSTAGRAM FOR THE PICTURES LOL. LETS SEE IF I REMEMBER ALL THAT WE HAD:

1. SASHIMI SALAD - SUPER FRESH AND OMG!!!
2. ASSORTED TEMPURA - SUPER LIGHT AND FLAVOURFUL 
3. OCTOPUS SALAD - THE TAKO WAS SO SOFT AND NOT LIKE REGULAR CHEWY
4. SPOT PRAWNS - PERFECTLY COOKED SO THE HEAD WAS GOOEY
5. WOOD SMOKED FISH - SMELLED SO GOOD!!! TASTED EVEN BETTER
6. LOBSTER ROLL - JUST LIKE IT SOUNDS :) CLASSY ROLL 
7. 5 CHEFS CHOICE SUSHI - BEST PIECE OF BLUEFIN TUNA I HAVE EVER HAD!!!
8. FISH ROE ROLL - SO MUCH WASABI!!!
9. 2 OTHER CHEFS CHOICE SUSHI - WHOLE SCALLOPS AND SMOKED SALMON
10. TOJO ROLL - THE REAL CALIFORNIA ROLL WITH REAL CRAB MEAT
11. GRAPEFRUIT JELLO - SUPER REFRESHING
12. SOME SORT OF PLUM ALCOHOL DRINK
13. AND LOTS OF SAKE IN BETWEEN :)

WELL I GUESS PICTURES OF ALL THE FOOD HELPS IN REMEMBERING. IVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS MEAL FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF I THINK AND IT DEFINITELY DID NOT DISAPPOINT. WE EVEN GOT A PICTURE WITH THE MAN HIMSELF. IF IT WAS BECAUSE OF A WORK THING, I DONT THINK I WOULD HAVE GONE THERE FOR A WHILE. BECAUSE IT IS SO GOOD, ITS ALSO REALLY EXPENSIVE. THE INTERIOR LOOKS REALLY NICE, LOTS OF SERVERS AROUND, AND A MIDDLE SUSHI BAR WHERE YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING BEING MADE. IF I GET THE CHANCE AGAIN I WOULD DEFINITELY GO... ITS MORE OF A SPECIAL OCCASION PLACE. UNTIL NEXT TIME :)

REST OF LIFE... SAME OLD, WORK, HANGING OUT. NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED IN THE WEEK. OH I DID GO TO PLAYLAND FOR THIS THING AND IT WAS PRETTY GOOD. HUNG OUT WITH THE FAMILY AND EVERYONE ELSE, ATE, AND THEN WENT TO THE HORSE RACING TRACK TO EAT SOME MORE. I HAVENT BEEN THERE IN YEARS AND IT WAS FUN. END OF THE DAY AFTER BEING UP AND DOWN, I LEFT ONLY BEING DOWN $10, WHICH WAS REALLY GOOD. ITS JUST A DIFFERENT ATMOSPHERE. NICE WEEKEND ALL TOGETHER. NOW TIME TO GO SLEEP. PEACE!

LIVE SHOWS

SO I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT ALL THE SHOWS I HAVE GONE TO RECENTLY OR HEARD ABOUT. IM TALKING ABOUT CONCERTS, EVENTS, AND LIVE SPORTS. I DONT GO TO MANY CONCERTS BUT I HAVE BEEN TO A BUNCH FOR THE PEOPLE I LIKE A LOT, BUT I HAVE GONE TO MANY MANY MANYYYYYYYYY EVENTS, WHEN I SAY EVENTS I MEAN DJ SHOWS HAHA, AND TO QUTIE A FEW LIVE SPORTS. FOR BOTH CONCERTS AND EVENTS YOU ALREADY KNOW THEIR SONGS, YOUVE HEARD IT BEFORE THERES NOT MUCH NEW ABOUT IT. FOR BOTH CONCERTS AND SPORTS A LOT OF TIME YOU CAN WATCH IT ON TV OR ONLINE. SO FOR MOST OF THEM YOU HAVE EITHER HEARD IT BEFORE OR YOU CAN WATCH IT ELSEWHERE. THEN WHY IS IT THAT EVERYONE MAKES SUCH A BIG DEAL ABOUT GOING TO SEE IT LIVE...??? THE MAIN REASON IS THE ATMOSPHERE!!! WATCHING SOMETHING LIVE WITH FRIENDS OR FAMILY IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM JUST WATCHING OR LISTENING TO IT BY YOURSELF AT HOME. THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU AND THE ENERGY IN THE VENUE JUST BRINGS THE EMOTIONS AND ENERGY UP. BEING SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME INTERESTS JUST MAKES FOR A BETTER TIME. THERES BEEN TIMES WHERE IM WATCHING A HOCKEY GAME OR BASKETBALL GAME OR SOCCER GAME AT HOME BY MYSELF AND WHEN THEY SCORE ITS JUST LIKE OK GOOD FOR THEM, BUT WHEN IM AT THE GAME ITS LIKE THE WHOLE PLACE JUST ERUPTS AND SCREAMS LIKE THERES NO TOMORROW. SAME THING FOR A PENALTY... AT HOME I WOULD JUST BE LIKE MEH, BUT AT A GAME I WOULD YELL AND SWEAR. IT ALL JUST TIES IN TO THE PSYCHOLOGY OF GROUP BEHAVIOUR/HERD BEHAVIOUR AND HOW PEOPLE ALIKE ACT IN GROUP SETTINGS. A BIG PART OF GOING TO SHOWS THESE DAYS ARE MORE ABOUT SOCIAL STATUS THAN ACTUALLY GOING FOR THE SHOW ITSELF. PEOPLE POST ALL OVER SOCIAL MEDIA TELLING EVERYONE AND SHOWING EVERYONE WHERE YOU ARE, HOW CLOSE YOU ARE, EITHER YOU HAVE THE MONEY TO GO, OR WHO YOU KNOW. ITS ALL TOO TRUE THAT BEING ABLE TO GO TO SOMETHING THAT IS EXCLUSIVE OR SOLD OUT JUST MAKES THEM THINK IT ELEVATES THEM SOMEHOW. HONESTLY IVE DONE THE SAME THING BEFORE... IF YOU CHECK MY IG YOU CAN SEE A BUNCH OF THEM, BUT FOR ME I FEEL ITS MORE OF A JOURNAL OF MY LIFE... THEN AGAIN ITS NOT MUCH DIFFERENT OF TRYING TO LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT OR WHERE I AM OR HAVE GONE. IT REALLY IS HUMAN NATURE ALWAYS TRYING TO ONE UP EACH OTHER, TRYING TO PROVE THAT THEY ARE BETTER, OR IN OTHER WORDS SHOW OFF LOL. NOT MUCH YOU CAN REALLY DO ABOUT THAT SINCE WE LIVE IN THE DIGITAL AGE AND WHERE SOCIAL MEDIA IS SO PREVALENT EVERYWHERE IN KEEPING EVERYONE CONNECTED. SNAPCHAT IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF THIS AND PERISCOPE IS LIVE BROADCASTING TO THE WORLD WHERE YOU ARE. IT CAN ONLY GET WORSE IS WHAT I THINK... SO... WITH EVERYTHING SAID IM GOING TO A PARTY THIS WEEKEND AND IL MOST LIKELY HAVE PICTURES AND SNAPS UP ABOUT IT... AHEAHEHAHA

IN OTHER NEWS... IM STILL BLOCKED FROM FACEBOOK... I REALLY DONT NOTICE IT ANYMORE... I DONT GET CONSTANT NOTIFICATION FROM THEM SO THATS ACTUALLY PRETTY GOOD. WORKS WORK, GOT A FEW DAYS OFF FOR CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR SO SHORT WEEK THIS WEEK AND NEXT. THATS GOOD SINCE ITS A MUCH NEEDED LITTLE BREAK. JUST BEEN GOING OVERDRIVE FOR THE PAST YEAR ALMOST AND NEED A LITTLE BIT OF A BREATHER. EVEN MY VACATION WAS BUSY... SO NOW I GET A CHANCE TO JUST HANG OUT AND CHILL A BIT WITH THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS. OH OH OH THE PAST MONDAY WAS THE ANNUAL COMPANY CHRISTMAS DINNER. IT WAS NICE AND EVERYONE HAD A GREAT TIME :) AS THE SOCIAL COORDINATOR I HAD 5 GAMES SET UP, TALKED A BIT, AND DELIVERED THE SECRET SANTA PRESENTS. IT WAS GREAT JUST RELAXING WITH EVERYONE AND STUFFING OUR FACES LOL.

WELL CHRISTMAS IS ON FRIDAY SO I WISH ALL MY READERS AND THEIR FAMILIES A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY :)

DAY 5 OF 366

WELL I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE NICE TO JUST RECAP THE PAST WEEK AND SEE HOW PROGRESS IS GOING... IT IS GOING... SLOW........................ VERY SLOW............................... LOL... BETWEEN BEING CAUGHT UP WITH WORK, SOCCER, AND SOME BDAY CELEBRATIONS I DIDNT REALLY GET A CHANCE TO REALLY BEGIN ANYTHING. I REALLY DONT THINK IL BE ABLE TO START TILL THIS MAD RUSH IS OVER. TOO MUCH TO DO RIGHT NOW AND TOO TIRED WHEN IM BACK HOME. BY THE TIME IM FINALLY HOME I JUST WANT TO EAT AND CHILL OUT THEN GO TO SLEEP. BDAY WAS NICE, JUST HAD DINNER WITH THE CLOSE GROUP OF FRIENDS AND THEN WENT BOWLING... WHERE THEY SCREWED UP AND NOW I HAVE TO CALL THEIR GM TO COMPLAIN AND GET MY MONEY BACK. THE ZONE HAS NEVER BEEN THIS BIG OF A HASSLE, THE PEOPLE THERE THAT NIGHT WAS COMPLETELY USELESS AND DIDNT EVEN UNDERSTAND THEIR OWN SYSTEM. THE FACT THAT I HAD TO EXPLAIN TO THEM WHAT THEY DID WRONG AND HOW ILLOGICAL THEY WERE ACTUALLY MADE ME FEEL DUMBER... NOT TO MENTION IT WAS MY FREAKING BDAY!!! ANYWAYS I GOTTA DEAL WITH THAT SOON. HUNG OUT WITH THE FAMILY ONE DAY AND HAD DIM SUM THE OTHER. OH I DID HAVE A SOCCER GAME LAST WEEK AND IT WAS GREAT. WE WON AND I SHOULD HAVE SCORED LIKE 3 GOALS!!! INSTEAD I WAS THE UNLUCKIEST GUY EVER... LONG STORY SHORT I KICK THE BALL AND IT HITS THE RIGHT POST, WHEN THE GOALIE TURNS TO LOOK AT THE BALL, THE BALL RICOCHETS OFF THE POST AND HITS HER SQUARE IN THE FACE, THEN THE BALL BOUNCES OFF HER FACE AND HITS THE SAME POST AGAIN, AND THEN BOUNCES OFF THE GOALIES HAND AND ROLLS ON THE LINE BUT NOT IN... ARE... YOU... KIDDING... ME..........   THAT SURE WAS UNLUCKY... SIGH... WELL ANYWAYS GONNA GO GET SOME SLEEP, FINISH OFF THE WEEK STRONG AND HOPEFULLY START ON WHAT REALLY MATTERS.
