as im on my way to work, having passed 1 police station (i pass this everyday) several cops in cars, some cop on a bike decides he’s just going to pull me over. I knew it was going to happen too.

At the intersection of Sepulveda and Manchester, they installed red light cameras. I already see him finishing up a ticket, and as I’m passing him he keeps staring at me. I knew he was going to get on his bike and pull me over for whatever reason. I check my rear view mirror and I see him getting on his bike. I see an available right turn for me into a residential area. I should have taken it. I was stupid not to have. I knew i should have.

Seconds later, i see him racing up after me and on go his lights. This street is hella busy and I still have to pull over. He comes up to me, walks around to the front of my car and checks to see if my front plate is there. Comes back to my window and says “just making sure its the right car, they have red light cameras behind you so they have us cracking down on no front plate cars, have you ever gotten a no front plate ticket before.” Not only have i gotten a no front plate ticket before, due to LAPD and CHP incompetence my license ended up getting suspended over a fucking no front plate ticket. “I know this is a busy street, and lots of ppl are just trying to get work, let me see your license insurance and registration and we’ll make this quick so we can all be on our way”

whatever bitch. thanks for the ticket. I saw him promptly pull over someone else afterward. cops are cunts.

anytime something somewhat eventful happens, i think to myself, “dont forget to blog something simple”. but of course, that never seems to happen. So, lets recap! Yes, I know, I suck, there are no pictures.

Wedding Bells!
Joel and I flew to Arizona to celebrate his first cousin, Hillary’s wedding. Not just Arizona, but Snowflake Arizona. You ever seen the movie, “Fire in the Sky“? Well it took place in a little town called Snowflake, Arizona. Just so happens, Joel’s aunt lives out there. about 3 hours NE of Phoenix AZ.

It was a very cute ceremony, i was the only asian person in existence (so it seemed). I wish the best of luck to Nick and Hillary and hope all their dreams come true.

BBQ Bliss
On April 2, 2005, 940 Hillcrest Street #2 in smelly El Segundo, we had a festive bbq. Those in attendance: Joel, Myself, Bryan, Kien, Chad, Sean, Pip, Maryanne, Cheeto, Diane, Will, Ryan, Erik, Josh, Sam, Dave, Nian, and Mr. Christian Dell. There was a ton of food and drink to go around.

Quite possibly the best part of the evening occurred around 1:30am. Christian introduced us to a game of … pick up the box with your teeth! Everyone has to pick up a box and lift it with their mouth. Only their feet can touch the ground. No hands, no knees, just your feet. We actually got down to the very bottom of the box. That’s right. Just a flat box bottom. In the end, Kien, Erik and Joel (of all people), were able to pick up the bottom piece.

CBA Media Marketing
As most of you know, I am working for a company called CBA Media Marketing. Our California offices are located in Downtown Culver City. I am the Lead Web Producer. I’m working with Erik again, which is delightful. We work under great leadership and a very supportive manager. We have the opportunity to actually utilize our skillsets instead of being limited, cutoff, abused, mistreated, taken advantaged of and ultimately lied to as we had previously experienced.

BTW, if you are reading this, you know who you are. We were the best team you were ever going to have. This is as good as you will ever be. I wish you the best of luck, you taught me a valuable lesson… it was personal, and this is business.

World of Warcraft
We’re finally our own guild. Sam has resurrected the name “The Rabble“. This time the leadership is not a collective of neutral individuals but rather a more exact leadership. I’m in the process of building out our entire CMS which consists of a lot of crap. Unfortunately I haven’t been playing at all because my home internet is fucked up beyond control so instead i work on the CMS when I have time. We’re still on Tichondrius.

Acura Integra GS-R
Yes. and Yes. Huh? thats right. Xerox, hurry up!

Hiyama -out!
