AFI’s New Album Crash Love has been spinning non stop for me. On Computer and in my car. Purchased the Deluxe Edition and have not stopped listening to it. Great Album grew on me big time. As for life im getting super excited for my trip leaving Saturday morning! Been packing and running errands. Gonna be gone for 2 weekkks

Pheonix – Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix

CSS – Donkey

Past few days has been safe safe safe to say that things have been going so much better. Staying busy and having great friends, family and good music helps a whole friggin lot.

AFI’s new CD coming on the the 29th titled Crash Love is about to hit and i am very very excited! I heard many demos and a few “leaks” and i cant say i dont like it. It grows on me more and more every time i listen to it.

Been also listening to Paramore’s new CD titled Brand New Eyes which i have to say i do not like it

..as well as Emery’s new CD In Shallow Seas We Sail. Sad news from two good bands but ive listened to CD’s that were much bigger  let downs.

But the CD i always end up going through my library to play recently has been Passion Pit’s Manners solid CD many of my friends think that go check em out!

So enough about the music lets move into another interesting little scheme TI (Texas Instruments) and HP (Hewlett Packard) are going to come out with

A business port of their popular TI brand calculators, known for being used by many students in college and higher level math courses and also known for busting a hole in your pocket for a device that is practically required to make your life easier. But this time the port isnt onto a regular device, its port of the popular program is onto none other than the iPhone.

Only thing this is worth though in my opinion is for someone who wants to save room on their work desk and for people who cant get what they need done on the regular programmed iPhone calculator app. Being a college student i have been told multiple times in my math classes no cell phones or phone calculators for obvious reasons. So TI and HP took that into considerations and i am assuming this isnt aimed for the students but no then whom is it pointed toward?

Also as many of you may already know and prolly have. The iPhone now has MMS making it closer to being the perfect phone imo. Next is tethering for all you non jailbreakers and it will be one of the best phones out there. As far as MMS i know ATT is swamped with people sending messages cause its a new feature but i believe that they did a good job with the transition. From what i noticed they didnt send txts to everyone at the same time to notify them of this new feature like they did OS 3.0. So its ok to bombard apple download servers than yours ATT cheers…Aside from that i feel that the UI is slick, i have seen it before but of course the feature has not been enabled. Reminds me a lot of the twitter feature of taking the shot on spot or taking a picture from your library but now in message form. The speed of the message being sent is a bit sluggish and annoying, it hangs on the last little part and i always find myself throwing my phone on lock and back into my pocket while it finishes sending.

But anyways what do you guys think? and has it gone smoothly for you?

Past few weeks have been a major drag but things are finally starting to look up! my car is running fine now what a relief. I have been getting back into the gym alot more than i have been. I have alot of free time and its nice to actually get to sit back and relax for once. Going to Seattle and Canada in a week on the 3rd even though i am going with just my parents. They are rather boring i am very very excited about it. To actually get out and go on vacation as a more mature person. Last few trips i have gone with my parents i have not actually been able to appreciate whats going on cause i was so young.

Earlier this week my friend took pictures of my car :]

Other than that check out this surge protector :]

by: Yanko Designs http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/08/24/show-off-the-strip/

The design is so simple but at the same time its unique and works…

Also Comming to a bus stop near you…..

BMW DESIGNED OUTDOOR BUS FURNATURE!

looks very fancy but seems like too much money to put into on a bus stop. if your town can afford these accessories for waiting for a bus. when the bus comes it better be a ferarri.

Till next time!

My car is back finally, it is not running right at all, sounds and feels like a boost leak, or broken pvc. I am so tired of car problems but at least i can drive the car. Guys at A1 auto body and auto did a great job, replaced right axle, cross members, oil pan, DSG tranny, subframe damage and repainted bumper and new front lip. Car looks great took about 3 weeks. Now i need to fix the problems right now and my car will be back in tip top shape :]

Some pictures to come soon as well. For my birthday i am suppose to be going to seattle to take a look see and to Vancouver Canada for 10 days. Hope to get a new camera by then so i can make a video/photo documentary since i will be going with my asian parents, who are gonna be really boring.

Planning to get a Rebel T1I

Get some 1080 video as well :]

more to come!!

also here is this ugly gadget that ruins the whole point of having an iphone

and for those who dont wanna pay 30$ for a case here is your solution!

can be purchased here http://www.case-mate.com/iPhone-3G-Cases/Case-Mate-iPhone-3G–3GS-recession-case.asp for 99 cents

After a couple of weeks..tiffany shall be mine again possibly tomorrow. youll find me in the slow lane doing 50 mph

finally someone good happened after a few weeks of pure garbage. school,relationships, stress. all garbage. if it sucks this bad it can only get better right? :]

Finally starting to get back into blogging and being less lazy. i actually had a urge to go out of the way and find stuff to blog about. not that i should but my life is just that boring…

Gotta get up tomorrow for the “family” get together at lake chabot. Since when did my family do anything as far as gatherings, we barely saw each other during christmas. Gonna leave early to go to dinner with Ashlee at Blowfish in Santana Row in San Jose for her 22nd. I am quite excited and i always become more and more of a fan and always find myself going there when we are around San Jose.

Located on the Santana Row Strip its very easy to locate

Spicy Tuna with a twist

When you walk in you are welcomed with tasteful Drum And Bass music,  sometimes there is a DJ but not always.

Place is dimly lit accompanied with Anime playing on all the screens littered around the restaurant as well and portraits of anime characters.

I feel like its aimed towards the younger crowd and that the restaurant still holds the authentic japanese food taste but with a wild wild twist.

Came up on this interesting device build by a french designer who creates minimalistic furniture as well as devices. His name is Aïssa Logerot

and his work can be found here http://www.aissalogerot.com/more-info/

Found this to be very interesting in how it works, it is shaken just like a can of spray paint but it has a unlimited supply of “paint” and different colors with multiple vibrant LED tips. Works just like a shake and shoot LED flashlight found in emergency kits. Here are more photos below.

I usually dont listen to hip hop but i have always been a fan of Jay-Z and i got a copy of  The Blueprint 3

What do you think?

Thats it for the post, might as well post this here since i found it funny. Some cosplayer guy that decided to wear black so his liquids arent exposed. Figure it out

Also my car is awaiting a right axle from germany. didnt expect it to be a part that was so limited in the united states.

Do people not need axles in the states? anyways im so tired of driving around in the X5 gassguzzler.

I just want my car back so bad :[

Have not been blogging for the longest time. Since my last post it has almost been one year and a whole lot has changed. I got a new job, school went on a crappy spiral down, been spending way too much money on food. I will post some pics of the big changes. Lets just say i have been continuing to eat well since the last post.

LOW + freeways + bumps = death to oilpan, tranny casing, subframe, right axle and cross members

still without a car for another week or two. has been about a week and a half so far. Good thing my folks have good insurance

Before my car went to the shop literally a day before. Shots taken by my friend Chris Wong.

Didnt mean to get into the picture but he snapped me in it.

And Halu ramen http://www.yelp.com/biz/ramen-halu-san-jose

I cannot even begin to think where I am going to start since it has been almost a month since my last post. Since my last post school has started and it has been my good firend and my girlfriend’s birthday. I got a baby lovebird called scout. I got a replacement iPhone from apple due to home button failure.

I am so tired this weekend has been so fun and amazing. Boating, tubing, camping, kayaking and moree

Sleep time update soon

school started for me. stress. last 2 semesters gotta make it count. been so fucking lazy. ill try to post as much as possible.

Another repeat of hell at work today. Understaffed with someone calling in sick with rushes of people. Did not have a bite of food at work other than two drinks.
After work however went to dinner with my grandparents in Oakland at a very reasonably priced Chinese seafood restaurant.

Food was terrific and I have been starving the whole day.

Let’s see how work goes tomorrow not like this
