T.G.I.F #1

I've been meaning to post an entry, but every time I start I end up not finishing what I've been meaning to. I know that's absolutely a bad thing to do, hit writer's block then just leave it unfinished. It's alright though, because today I was determined to post something even if it's a long entry without any pictures. I'm seriously in need of finding my charger so that I can take pictures for my site. I also kind of want a new camera just something small and compact since both of my cameras are bulky and it's not cute enough to bling out if I wanted to, haha.

The start of the week til' the end.

Okay, I've been seriously in need of some type of break. I know all you hot sexy mama's out there are most likely thinking the same thing. I'm not going to lie since Loverboy and I have called it off I've been making the effort to sort of go out more often, and it's paying off really. I do however, feel bad because I hate the idea that I'm leaving Ryu at home and enjoying myself. I almost feel like I'm neglecting my responsibility of being a mother. Honestly, I know I'm not, and others can think otherwise, but they don't know what I feel about the situation, but whatever. I don't owe anyone an explanation at least at this point, just venting a bit. Anyway, back to the story before getting sidetracked, haha. I guess my week started on a Wednesday evening since I saw my 2 friends at their place after work. I honestly, wasn't planning to go anywhere but home since I've been working, I was tired, but I missed them. I eventually gave in came over and smoked hookah. I was then convinced to join them at Gitana to have some drinks and smoke some more. I haven't completely hung out with them in a while and it was hard to resist. Good thing I didn't. Our table sat right next to "Hank" from Secret Life of the American Teenager (If you don't want that show you definitely should start). He was rehearsing his lines while smoking with two friends. He kept looking over I guess he noticed we were sort of staring and he was cute. We didn't bother him though, cause we just didn't want to make a big deal about him being a celebrity. I went home early that evening because after the car ride to a friend's the atmosphere made me feel sick. I wasn't quite sure if it was the car ride or what, but I didn't feel too shabby.

Thursday morning I've had to apply for a new job, and I'm hoping I get a call back, or if I call back that I get hired. I just need a change in my atmosphere to be honest. I just need a boost in my financial situation. After that I decided to rest at a friend's home since I've been up since 5:30 that morning my mind has just been on something else. That evening I met up with my ex to have dinner with him and I took Ryu with me. I'm just glad all my friends take a liking to Ryu and that they're very comfortable helping step up and just watching him for a bit or anything like that. We had a good talk during dinner really, and I sort of, kind of, miss those days where you can just sit down with someone meaningful to you and converse. We talked for a bit and I was surprised cause Ryu ate so much and he also drank tons of water which I'm glad cause when he's with me he eats a lot and when he's with other people lol he doesn't. Weird little boy, but he's probably just more comfortable with his mommy. After that stayed to watch them bowl for a bit, and Ryu got super excited! He was clapping his hands, and screaming, staring at Pao bowl. I think I got a little bowler on my hands! I'm glad I used to bowl a lot and I'd love for him to get into it. After that I visited a friend at work with Ryu, had a talk there too and then went home tired as heck cause I had an absolutely LONG DAY.

So far that is what jump started my weekend. I feel like as tired as I am, I've gotten tons of things done, and next week is Ryu's Birthday. I've got to get my shit started on that. We sort of have some stuff organized here and there, but I think come lunch time I'll be brain storming on what's going to happen and all that good stuff. I'll probably be blogging quite more about the event til it gets here. I really want to do what Nani did and blog about keeping organized and details about the party. I loved how Nani's decorations turned out! I'll definitely see what I'll have my hands on this week for preparation.

Pub Crawl

Define: Pub Crawl: A pub crawl (sometimes called a bar tour, bar crawl or bar-hopping) is the act of one or more people drinking in multiple pubs or bars in a single night, normally walking to each one between drinking.

I wanted to mix things up so I'll post about my experience drinking and drinking in Europe. I've got to say loverboy has got a bunch of crazy/fun friends that I definitely enjoyed hanging out with. They really made me enjoy my trip and they made me feel right at home. I'm very glad that they made me feel comfortable at all times or else it would've been super awkward if I just sat there all quiet. Off to the drinking experience, haha.

Loverboy's best friend wanted to do a Pub Crawl in Vienna. At first I was hesitant to partake since it just seems a bit too much for me. The plan was to drink from 2 in the afternoon all the way til we go clubbing that evening. I mean tell me that doesn't seem too excessive to you? I sort of had no choice, lol. I went and we actually started at 4 in the afternoon. The plan was to drink at a bar at every tram stop. It was actually very, very fun. I didn't think that I would be able to keep up, but I did. I actually stayed the most sober rather than everyone (even I surprised myself with that one). By looking at all the pictures, you'd definitely be able to tell how each night progressed.

Beginning of the Pub Crawl

Dom! they call him Demon

I'll definitely tell you that we had a great time. I've never partied like that back here in Cali. Eventually we all got home nearly around 8 am. We left the club at 6 got everyone together and dropped everyone home. It was really a nice night. I was so surprised how much I kept up with these heavy drinkers. They're a bunch of awesome, fun people and I couldn't have asked for a better group of guys to party with. Thank you Europe for showing me such a fab-you-loss time, haha.

Vienna, Austria

I'm finally going to be able to blog about my trip. I'm actually going to do multiple posts on my trip, but it won't all be boring long entries since it's 3 weeks of shit I gotta write. Instead I've decided to just post something new every other day about it and perhaps do something different with it, but we'll see how that goes..

My 2 cents on Vienna.
Being my first time flying to Europe I had tons of thoughts in my head.. I wasn't quite sure what to expect. At the time I was so hesitant and I wanted to fly back since I was leaving the states with so much damn drama going on. I felt like there was so much unfinished business that had to be resolved. I was then assured by my good friends that I really need this trip and that everything will be fine just as long as I get back with a clear fresh head. We don't get clear skies up in Cali.. is what I had running through my head. Vienna was absolutely Beautiful and let me tell you if you're looking for a vacation spot with just lots of culture you def. should check this place out.

We've got some clear blue skies, over

2 things I'm definitely going to miss about Vienna, Austria:

• Beautiful Locations: Vienna by far has showed me what true beauty and culture can really provide. It's brought me some type of tranquility and relaxation!

• Great Food - I'd forgotten to take pictures of everything I ate and even cooked there (yup, I made Chicken Carbonara). I have to admit I gained weight eating there since everything was just super delicious!

Everything about my trip was definitely relaxing. I was stressed at first, but after I got settled in I started to like the "lifestyle" there. I was so sure that'd I'd have such a big culture shock, but actually everything was fine. I had tons of fun and I've got tons of stories in my upcoming posts. I just wanted to share with you guys the main 2 points of my trip, apart from family. This is my mini intro into my trip!

Goodbye Dinner

Okay I probably should post this before the trip post, and I do realize I'm about 3 weeks behind on that entry. I guess better late than never right? I'm actually sitting here at work with so much stuff I'm swamped with, but it's alright since I've also gotten a lot done. I'm just being lazy and I sort of feel like I deserve a break, haha. First thing let's just say HAPPY FRIDAY BITCHES, haha. I'm not really callin you guys bitches, but its the idea of just saying that. I'm glad it's Friday, the week definitely flew by so fast. I'm still debating whether I should post some private entries on here, but that I'm thinking if it's even worth posting since I'm sure a lot of my offline friends read this shit and they're most likely going to nag and bitch about me saying shit, so I'm still quite unsure.

Before we left to Europe our friends decided to have a "Goodbye Dinner" for us with some drinking involved at another bar. It was fun and I enjoyed every part of it. There was probably some drama involved, but honestly FUCK IT, right? doesn't matter. We were leaving and all I wanted was a good delicious dinner and a couple good drinks to hit the buzz right at the spot. I'm going to warn y'all though that It'll be a bit image heavy. I actually really do miss having to post heavy on these bitches, and that's what I'm going to do.

Let's start w. Ryu's cute ass face!

The trio, but excuse my jacked up face here. lol



Ryu w. Daddy.



Romeo (aka Loverboy) and I

Cheesy smile from me

Ryu looks so lost



Olah and I

Okay the previous images are by RBPhotography (Roland Photography), but I had to abbreviate it. Next time you see me write RBP you then know what I'm talking about, haha. That concludes the "professional" images, haha. I'm going to post all the random pictures from Woodranch all the way to Gyu Kaku. It was such a fun night, and I really enjoyed how awesome it all went. I don't think I could've asked for a better group to just have a goodbye dinner with. It was small and personal and it was just "us".

I guess this really concludes the night. Lots of the same people over and over on pictures, and well I guess that's it, haha. It was fun I'll tell you that. We had a blast I'll tell you that much. Jic still has pictures from her camera, and it's sitting there, lol I want them (If you're reading this, upload them girl, haha it's been like a freaking mo. and a half, lol). Sorry if my post is picture heavy, but I decided I'll be doing this quite often so you guys can follow my life :P I'm also thinking how I'm going to break down my Eurotrip since there are just a bunch of pictures. I wish I worked on my site before so that I could've blogged while there, but yea that definitely didn't happen. Now I'm stuck with a mo. worth of pictures waiting to be posted on here. After that night our flight wasn't until Saturday so we had a free Friday to pack and just get ready to leave. Unfortunately, during my trip I found out I had gotten a red light ticket that Friday, and was completely unaware of it. I'll probably post up the picture on here after I edit our license plate and whatnot. I'll talk about that more on a different time, but enjoy the pictures for the time being. PEACE.
