So this semester was pretty much awesome from start to finish. I got by with satisfactory grades for the most part (personally I thought I fucking ape smashed excellence into SDSU's grading system considering I didn't go to like 75% of my classes), and now I'm back home in Northern California just chillin with my old friends like the good ol' times. Decided to upload photos from my camera from the past week, kind of disappointed that I got no good photos from Vegas other than these:
Lyric doing his laptop thing at the Wynn
Mango showing off the fashion in the PokerStars sweat shirt
Yea, thats about all the ones I could get from Vegas since they didnt allow flash photos in the Bellagio around the tournament area so all my pics of the tourney came out super blurry. So after coming back from Vegas I decided to chill in San Diego for a week with my friends, and my best friend from Hawaii flew down to visit since his school was finished as well.
My best friend Kaz
Meet Kaz, he's like the chillest kid I've ever known. I've known him since freshman year of high school. He loves reggae music, smoking pot, and long walks on the beach obv. Anyways, he came on tuesday and we chilled around San Diego until my other friends finished their finals. Thursday night a bunch of us went to eat sushi, along with my boy Mike King (the guy I dressed up as for Halloween), which is a really rare thing since he barely leaves his house caz he's the laziest kid ever.
Sushi at Mizu's!
And then after we went to Sandbar on Mission Beach...
And then I don't really remember the rest, but I have pictures!
On Friday, Kaz cooked some awesome stir fried shit w/ white rice and we had a family style dinner. We headed to Typhoon Saloon in PB later in the night, and it was fucking freezing outside so we didn't really stay very long. We came back to my friend's house early, and that wasn't much better since they have no heater in their baller ass pad (what baller pad has no heater! No heater = No justice!) So they use a bunch of these portable heaters to warm up the house. Needless to say, they don't work so well...
Sup punk? Something for byrnesam to photoshop obv.
One of my best friend who has a problem staying warm
Going to be in Norcal til the 3rd of January, then I'm not really sure what I'm doing after that. My grandma was diagnosed with lung cancer earlier this month and she hasn't been doing so well in the hospital. Because of this, I am kind of up in the air on whether or not I'm going to the Bahamas this year. My parents think this might be the last Christmas we have together with her so the mood around the family house is kind of down. Doing my best to stay optimistic about it all, I'm not really religious or anything, but I think I might go to church on Christmas for the first time in a few years. For those of you who are religious, please keep Grandma CosMo in your prayers!
What do you want me to write about? I did say I'm gonna write a series of articles, but I don't really know yet what it's going to cover. I'll probably write about the proper mindset for poker (and not only poker) in the next article.
On a side note, playing low stakes is killing me, I'll play a bit more and terminate it.
i wrote like an a4 page about final fantasy 7 here, then deleted it all
not even my most drunken inciteful flowing thoughts can descibe this game even close to adaquately. i tried to talk about, every aspect of it. but i can´t. it´s just...impossibly...
i still cry with tears irl to any one of the 130 orchestrated pieces of music to the game, how could i possibly explain to you why i love it so?
there is nothing in the universe i will ever love more than final fantasy seven.
it is constructed by me of Peaches best songs. they (were) a young swedish girl band who sing pop-euro-eurodance/light trance. they are one of my fav bands ever.
re-posted into my blog because apparently the rapidshare is still working =)
way back college boy asked to a high school dance
couldn't wait, but my date was in my friend's pants.

went to the drew with my crew, adults only box,
in a second hand suit, bow tie, i'm a fox.
in a car on the street, in my mouth swisher sweet
down that shit at my crib in a one gulp feat.
room starts to turn like cheese,
my tummy starts to churn like grease,
on my knees like a rug burn beast
like an intern tease with a yeast (infection.)
all the while on the tile, feel like I got the flu.
think I'm gonna throw, I think this night is through
ding dong, date's arrived and her dress is ripped.

i demand from the date her sunglasses.
do a drop roll out the car like axel.
I need an angel, I need some fuckin advil.
I got a buzz bigger than a behive
cough up my cookies let loose what's on the inside
the tussin, the tussin

robocop couldn't stop me puking and flushin
no balls to be bustin, no fightin, no cussin
just love for a drug called robotussin
way back college boy, live on eleventh floor.

this is the dolphin bottle opener that i presumeably picked up from a christmas cracker somewhere and has been cutting the fuck out of my hand ever since. it´s less than 1 mm thin made of razor sharp steel and is fucking impossible AND PAINFUL to use
also it´s designed so you have to use it upsidedown which is 100x harder
busto, played about 15 sng's total with the last of my $50, got in the money in about 2 of them and the rest was mostly losing 80/20s on the river, couple of two outers, and missing every straight / flush draw possible while everyone else was hitting theirs, and losing every flip. just an absolute sick day. i'm proly just gonna ask rednines to release my bonus and cash out like 70 or 80 because this is harmful to my wrists
should've quit playing after that 30 hand 2 buy in drop, crushing almost half of my br
so now i kept playing and suffered the most ridiculous beat. i'm on a rednines turbo table, which is already impossible to multi table. aks preflop, someone raises to like 7 BBs UTG, and i want to reraise but tables keep popping on top of it, and before i am forced to fold i can only minraise... flop comes a j q, i bet, he pushes, i call, he rivers a K for a straight with T9.
i really wanna give up now, but i still have about $75 left. i'm super unmotivated to play now but we will see how this goes
never wud have thought id be thinking "oh, 9am isn´t such a bad time to have to get up tomorrow morning"
what pissed me off today was seeing a 1-2 minute advert on british tv inbetween Carry On Cowboy. it was EXACTLY in the style of one of those "save the dying children in africa" adverts, except it was for DONKEYS. i actually loled half way thru it was so surreal and pathetic. with that sad music and emotional imagry and video footage of a burdened donkey, toiling its load then lying down in the desert sun gasping for breath, just 3gbr/month can help improve a suffering donkeys life for good.
WTF
theres a similar thing in the Home i work, a big pamthlet in multiple places, with the words "Dónt forget the neglected domestics animals when you come to write your will" followed by pictures of terry the puppy (and many others) who was restored to health thanks to your donations.
up about $80 today after 40 sngs. 1 step closer to hitting my goal of 300 by next tuesday. last final is tomorrow also so i'll be able to play more. current BR is 180. hopefully variance won't pull a 2girls1cup on me
edit - actually just won another (boring pot limit) sng, so i'm up to 205 now. whats really good!
br right now is 140, went down to about 60 earlier but brought it back up. when i focus on the tables and not on something else i start doing better. gonna write up an essay for tomorrow and then continue, hopefully i'll get past 160 tonight.
went to the dentist today and he was putting a filling in one of my teeth...and i fell asleep on the chair, wtf.
