i dont know about you guys but i fucking-absolutely love being in california. its nov and it feels absolutely like summer. i have to take advantage of it and do a little skate session tonight. one thing i don’t love is being fucking old, i am almost 30 and when i fall i feel like a goddamn peanut brittle getting broke in half. i slam my ass a twice and it took me 10 minutes to get up and it was enough. i do need to stop being a wuzz and just start commetting to the tricks but i just can’t after falling hard and barely making it home. i had to walk home tonight.

but i’m happy whenever i can go out and do some session, we’re always busy but we all have to take a little bit of time for ourselves.

its been awhile since i’ve posted. reason is im trying to laylow and just trying not to microblog anymore. i’m really focusing more of life and my family. i realized there’s some twizted fucks out there so not giving too much but i will be blogging some shit that i do on the side and just not anything that could affect my job / life.

anyways, went to the san jose tattoo convention today since i got a call from an old friend that does tattoo in hawaii while he was down here. turns out that he’ll be living in SJ and meaning, a few of shits going to be done on my skin soon. oh fuck. i also wanted to check out mike giants live painting but more reason to really check out some arts and artist doing their thang live on the floor. i didn’t stay too long but i pick up a few arts but who i really wanted to meet and hoping to get some shit done on my arm was adrian lee from analog, hoping ill catch the dude at his next book release party. nov 6th at analog tattoo!

I haven’t really touch and talk about this much since it happen but this shit is very saddening. It had to happen to the people that was already poor as fuck and in poverty. Imagine the disease and aftermath on this shit? its fucking very sad.

About a week ago, Typhoon Ketsana (known in the Phillippines as “Ondoy”) made landfall, and according to the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), Ketsana dropped 455 mm (17.9 in) of rain on Metro Manila in a span of 24 hours on Saturday – the most in 42 years. A month’s worth of rainfall in a single day washed away homes and flooded large areas, stranding thousands on rooftops in the city and elsewhere. Ketsana later crossed over to Vietnam and Cambodia, where it is still active. Over 360 people are known to have been killed, and damage estimates are reaching $100 million. Unfortunately, another tropical storm may be headed toward the southern Philippines on Wednesday but is still 1,000 km (600 mi) off the coast. Here is a selection of photographs from the affected areas over the past week.

its happy sad kinda thing. you are leaving your child to someone else hand and hoping it’ll be ok.

jordan started kinder last week. sister was there to give him some encouragement, it sucks that they both go to a different school. hoping next year they’ll be together.

in no time, he’s ready to take over.

first day went great. no call from school. alyza’s first day in kinder was a call from school for her setting off the fire alarm and knocking some fools for his tacos. GANGSTA.

follow me on twitter or my other blog. i will keep this alive and updated with more personal update vs random shit.

my boy jei did the pho challenge in pho garden in SF. well check out the vid see if he finish it…

when jay pizo and i took a trip down south. our first stop was gyukaku, it isn’t an LA trip without stopping at gyukaku.

it was nice for jacob and thao to come eat with us. these guys are always down for some gyukaku.

then we went to hit up the fatlace party in OC. thanks for John P and Mark for taking care of us.

this is why Freshjive is one of my fave brand. seen at the last Agenda Trade Show.
