Ice Skating @ Horton Plaza (Downtown SD)

Took a trip to Downtown San Diego to go ice skating with the buddies. The rink was pretty small, smaller than the one at UTC. The one thing I dread about ice skating is that the ice skates hurt your feet, and can get blisters. It sucks. I have learned to get at least one size up and double up on the socks. Anyways, I had a good time. It was pretty foggy, so pictures weren't that great.

SD: Graffiti Hunt Part 1

Home

Finally home. Summer school is over. Math 2A was alright. Home feels good for once. Need to be home, away from school for awhile. Summer Intensive is around the corner as far as auditions go. I need to practice. Gahh.. I might be trying out for both Intermediate and Advanced, but we will see how that goes.
Started the DIY backdrop muslin project for photography for Sierra. Started designing the 2nd backdrop. This will be an exciting opportunity for me as a beginner photographer, to take my skills to another level. It will be exciting. We will see how that goes. Need to get my polaroid pictures going. My project idea was to just take candid and random pics of friends. So far, it's going pretty well, need to take more. Hah.

Just finished watching Soccer (LA vs NY). Ended in a tie =(. Hoping that LA would win. Started reading "Tuesdays with Morrie" by Mitch Albom. It is a great book. I remember reading it in the sophomore year of my high school career but did not pay attention it as much. Now, that I am in the college atmosphere and nearing the real world, I am in need of guidance and self-help to aid me in my future encounters and endeavors. Started my records of my expenses as I need to learn to control myself with my money. I need to spend it much more wisely. Will blog later...peace...

Tuesday was a Productive Day!

So I woke up around 8ish to get ready for Body Worlds 3 & the Story of the Heart held at the California Science Center in LA. The exhibit/museum was very interesting and worth the money. All the displays were fascinating as it shows you what is inside of you. there were whole body plastinates, organs, translucent body slices, and a presentation of the heart. There were also displays of a long-necked giraffe and ostrich.









I finally received my camera. The Colorsplash Chakra edition from Lomography. All have to say is Wow. I'm pleased with the camera and it's effect. This is more of a collectors item to me. Someone might not fork over the money to pay for such a camera, but it was worth my money. Using film the old school way, feels so much better and takes me away from the digital age of photography that we live in.



Last night was the first class of Summer Intensive 5 Advanced 2B. The class was hard, very hard. The choreo was doable, just the speed of doing the choreo was difficult. I have much more progress to do. This is where the intensivity begins for the summer. I am very sore, gahh...

Recap of my weekend:
Friday: Partied with Sierrans at Angelo's and Vu's aptmt. It was pretty fun. I watched drunk people play basketball out in the courts. It was funny cause they were actually making their shots. Left Irvine for SD at 3 in the morning. I saw Ilyssa, came down all the way from San Jose to visit. But I heard she got in trouble. =(

Saturday: Went to the Miramar Exchange to buy clothes, preferrably briefs and boxers. =). I finally got myself a steam iron to get those wrinkles out. I also got myself a pair of swim shorts cause the last pair I had was very very small to the point where i had to sag so I looked "cool." lol.

Sunday: Went to Church. Went to the Miramar commissary to buy food. Restocked on supplies and looks like it will last me a while. Now I'm back in Irvine, in my room, it's 12:45AM.
Later today, comes in my camera !!!...so excited...

Wednesday

1:39 PM :
Back at VDC Norte
My navy blue half cabs came in today. The shipment was very fast and was surprised that it came within two days.

Math 2A is whack. I could have aced my first quiz but the points were taken off cause I did not show my work fully. All the answers were right too. Stupid TA. Really irritated right now. Then on today's quiz, I messed up on an easy question. Whack status.

Lesson: Show all your work.

Saturday or Sunday: Rex Navarette at Irvine Spectrum
