Trip to LA Recap: The Final Day

Fri, 01 Aug 2008 01:59:54 +0100

First, before I get started on the final day of my trip to LA, it has been pointed out by this guy Eugene that my posts are inaccurate. But to that response, I say that that shit happened over three weeks ago so my memory isn't going to be spot on. I'm on writing from my perspective.

So on Monday, I woke up and I took like three shits cause that ramen from the night before was killin me. Then me and Jake drove around to get breakfast (I slept on Eugene's nice, comfortable sheets again no homo) and we were going to get subs, but that wack place was closed. So we went to the Mexican place and got fries covered in a meat, cheese, and guac for 5 bucks. We drove back home and ate those fries. Then this girl Monique (I think that's her name it was either that or Monica) came over and she started making fun of how dirty Jake made the place be. That shit was a mess. There were empty Pepsi cans and water bottles lying all over the place.

Then we drove to the airport and even though I got there two hours early, LAX was a mess and it took me about an hour to make it to my gate. I took the plane to Phoenix and at the Phoenix airport, where I always stop, I went to my favorite place: Wendy's. I ate a chicken nugget and then bounced back to Houston. When I got back to Houston, I parked my car in this parking garage, but my car got shitted on so hard by birds. It was disgusting, like hanta virus type shit. Then I drove my car, went to Waffle House by Hobby, drove home, and passed the fuck out. And that concludes the entire recap of my trip. Thank you for joining me on this series.

Oh yeah, before I forget, I invented a new style. Because I can't afford a blackberry, i put my ipod nano and attached it to my shorts to make it look like an ipod. I left the ipod in the bathroom at the tea place, but I came back 20 minutes later and it was still there, in front of the sink. The end.

Trip to LA Recap Part 6

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 16:07:45 +0100

A couple days ago, I recapped what I did on Saturday, and now I will do the same with Sunday.

I had to wake up earlier on Sunday to print out my Southwest Airlines ticket. Eugene drove me to Kinkos around 1:50 and we got there a little earlier and went to blockbuster first, then went to Kinkos second. We then went to In N Out (no homo) third, and we all got the same shit: a double decker with fries. I ate that shit, and then I don't really remember what else we did that day. We chilled until around 6 or 7 or 8 I guess, then went to Giant Robot to meet up with Serina. She couldn't get off work for a minute so me and Eugene practiced takedown moves. He couldn't take me down though because my reflexes were too quick; every time he attempted to shoot, I stuffed that shit like Mutombo. Dave hit me up, and finally Serina got off work and we met up with Dave in Little Tokyo. We were going to go to the RrururuurRURURURURURURruruurr ramen shop, but that shit was closed for no reason. So we walked around and went to this ramen shop where they rated the ramen on levels of spicyness from 7 (which was the lowest) to 2. If you ate a Level 2, you would get your picture taken and placed in a boundary in the store. Me and Dave chilled with our level 4's, but Jake decided to play superman and order a level 3. Me and Dave agreed that a level 4 was a good level of spiciness, whereas Jake could barely finish his level 3 meal. That shit was so spicy it was like my dick. Then, we said goodbye to Dave and we dropped Serina off AGAIN and she kept looking at me all wack and shit on the way home. After dropping Serina off, I noticed that Jake was driving unusually fast on the freeway home. He was almost going 90 and it was peculiar. He didn't slow down even when he go to the parking lot, and then he parked the car and ran out of the car to the house. Superman over there got a case of diarrhea from the spicyness. Then we watched DREAM and Jake passed out Chris Craft style once again.

Trip to LA Recap Part 5 Part 2

Tue, 29 Jul 2008 04:13:20 +0100

Yesterday I left off with us bumping Z-ro on our way to the Anaheim Center. Once we arrived, that bitch was packed. Me and Eugene ditched Jake and we walked across the street from the parking lot to the front of the building. However, we heard a voice that said "GET THE FUCK OVER HERE." I looked around and saw no one else within 100 miles of us. I replied "Me?" And this policeman said "YEAH YOU! GET THE FUCK OVER HERE!" And then we walked over to the policeman, and here was our conversation.

Policeman: WHAT THE FUCK!!!!! WHY DID YOU JAYWALK?!?!?!?!?!
Eugene (with tears in his eyes) NOOO IM SORRY!!!
Me: We ain't no Jaywalk. I ain't do nothin.

In reality, the policeman got real mad at us for jaywalking and I told him that we'd never do it again. Then we found our seats and even though they were in the nosebleed section, it wasn't that bad. I met Kazuma and Makato, the cousin's of Jake and Eugene, and we all enjoyed Affliction and Megadeath together. From what I remember of the event, it was fuckin dope. The best fights were Barnett, Arlovski, and of course the crazy ass 30 second Fedor fight. From what I remember, the fight went like this: everyone stood up, Sylvia and Fedor touched gloves, Sylvia through a jab, and then the fight was over. Overall, it was a sick event and it was worth my trip out there.

After the fight, we left the arena and Jake had to take a monster shit so we went to his cousin's house and he dropped a deuce. Then we went to this place Cloud Nine, and I wanted to smoke weed, so me and Kaz went outside to smoke. However, when we walked out the door, a policeman rolled by so we were like FUUUCK THAT and walked back inside the restaurant. 2 minutes later, we walked back outside and he let me finish this joint of some good shit and I got kind of lit. We moved the party over to this place with pool tables, and Kaz had another joint, so we walked outside and smoked that shit. That got me pretty fuckin high. At this pool place, there were mad girls in bikinis trying to get money, and I don't remember much but I think one of the girls spit in Jake's face. I was high as shit and Eugene was faded I believe. After that, Jake drove home and we listened to K-Rino and Turk. Oh yeah, we also listened to "A Milli" about 100 times in Anaheim. Overall, that night was fuckin dope. I met more Japanese people that night than I had in the last 10 years combined.

Trip to LA Recap Part 5, Part 1

Mon, 28 Jul 2008 02:52:41 +0100

On Thursday I recaped what I did on Friday so Sunday I'll recap Saturday. This will take place in two parts, cause Saturday was that epic.

Saturday was the reason I came to LA in the first place. It was time for Affliction. As usual, Jake and Gene were out the door at 5 AM so I woke up off the desert couch and passed out on Eugene's bed. Eugene's bed had really soft sheets no homo. I recommend it. Anyways, I woke up and I used my new found skill to use the oven and put it to good use by baking a pizza. I then proceeded to eat the pizza. I took a shower and a piss somewhere in there, then Jake and Ugene came home and we were hungry, so Jake drove me to this Mexican place and we ordered some incredible food: it was steak, guacamole, cheese, and sour cream over fries. Actually, I didn't get sour cream on mine because Jake didn't order it. This was around 3, and we were planning to leave for Affliction at around 5 and head to Anaheim to pick his cousin's up. Unfortunately, the ticket said the events were starting at 4:30, so we were like oh shit, and bounced after eating the food. In the car ride over, we bumped some Z-Ro the Crooked, and noticed he kind of sounds like Pac.

For part 2 of Saturday, tune in tomorrow.

Trip to LA Recap Part 4

Fri, 25 Jul 2008 02:47:22 +0100

Yesterday, I recapped what I did on Thursday. Now, I will recap day Friday of my trip to LA.

Jake took the day off so for breakfast, he showed me how to use a oven and I made a pizza all by myself. Then we went to meet up with Dave at Roscoe's. The chicken was good, and we saw Snoop from The Wire. There was no sign of Marlo, and Chris is of course locked up with Weebay, so I guess Snoop rolls solo now, kind of like Michael or Omar. Before the day began, me and Jake made a pact that we would spend $500 on gear that day. After lunch, we went to The Hundreds store. I bought a dope t-shirt there. We went to a couple other stores, but they didn't really stand out - it was just a large space with a couple t-shirts on the side. We visited the Turntable Lab store - I was really impressed with this one. They had a good vinyl selection, good CDs, good books, good gear - an all around good store. One thing I didn't like about this day was that Jake didn't fill the gas tank and the empty light kept turning on. He said that if the car ran out of gas, then I would have to push it. I was like fuck that, I don't do that for my cardio. So afterwards, we got gas and dropped Dave off. This was now around 6, so we went to Sawville or Sawtelle and I bought a couple Japanese books. Last night, I stated how Serina's boss got mad at me, but it was this day where she got mad at us and kicked us out of Giant Robot. I said fuck it, then walked across the street to take a shit at this tea place. I then bought some green tea there, and it was the nastiest fuckin drink I've ever drank in my life. It tasted like a combination between shit and piss. Me and Jake played Connect 4, betting a dollar on each game. He won a couple bucks off me, no big deal. Then Serina came and I whooped her ass so bad she was cheatin. After that, we called up Dustin and Chavo and we were on our way to Little Tokyo again.

Now, the time was around 9, and we arrived in Little Tokyo. We called Dustin and he told us that he was on 2nd and San Pedro. But that didn't make sense cause we were also on 2nd and San Pedro. After about 30 minute of walking around, we realized that we were on San Pedro Street and they were on San Pedro Way. Fail. We then went to this Japanese restaurant that was good, except they had no air conditioner and I felt like taking my clothes off. The menu looked like it was drawn by a 2 year old with crayons. After dinner, I said peace to Dustin and Chavo, then we dropped Serina off AGAIN!!! On the way home, she kept looking at me in a creepy S&M sexual way and I was getting scared as shit that she was going to whip me while I had an apple in my mouth. Then we drove back home, Jake passed out Chris Craft style, and it was back on that Couch from the Sahara desert.
