Chinatown Locked Up (NYC)
on our last day we made one last trip over to chinatown to get some last minute goodies. on the way there, we got caught up with the TRL filming along with Janet Jackson’s posse holding up signs and such outside. she musta been in studio. monday night there was even a long line in front of virgin records for the release of her new album.
but as we got to china town, a whole block of shops have been raided for counterfeiting. meaning, bootlegs bags and watches.
“In one of the biggest raids on counterfeiting operations in city history, the NYPD seized a million dollars in fake designer goods in Chinatown.” click here for full story…

fuck the subway, fuck the taxi. you know how we do. we got a mutha fuckin limo to take us to the next destination.
we hit up this bar called forbidden city. shoot, they didnt even have crown or hennesey on their menu. but they sure did know how to pack dudes in that bitch.

got home at 4-5am. i found an empty time square with snow on the sidewalks untouched.

YES WE CAN. w/ Obama
Obama it is. got my vote.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjXyqcx-mYY[/youtube]
It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.
Yes we can.
It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.
Yes we can.
It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
Yes we can.
It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.
Yes we can to justice and equality.
Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.
Yes we can heal this nation.
Yes we can repair this world.
Yes we can.
We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.
We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics…they will only grow louder and more dissonant ……….. We’ve been asked to pause for a reality check. We’ve been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.
But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.
Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; we will remember that there is something happening in America; that we are not as divided as our politics suggests; that we are one people; we are one nation; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea –
Yes. We. Can.

Valentines
I had a blast on valentines day, despite the cold & wet weather. it was my first valentines in the longest time ever. it all started out at Roppongi in La Jolla of Prospect st.
since our dinner was so early, we decided to drive over to coronado and gazed over the waters of the harbor and downtown. i just wish i brought my SLR camera and heated blankets.
after we froze to death in coronado, i sent text messages to the other valentine dates that me and april would be at basic… and they all came.
hands down the most fun, enjoyable, and drunk valentines evening.
