Last night was a mission getting up to Embers Lodge in Big Bear, CA. With it being night and a thick blanket of fog limiting us to about 1 ft of visibility, it made our trip up the mountain interesting. Luckily, I acquired The Black Stallion from a very good friend which allowed us to arrive safely to our destination, and let us enjoy a full day of snowboarding the following day.
Today was a good day again. Haven't had this much fun in awhile, even though I slipped and fell in mud 2 times haha, and minus the ants that bit Eileen. We all still had fun. But i can feel it already imma be sore tomorrow thats for sure.
It was my mom's birthday today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!! haha. I got her one of those Canon picture printers, its easy to use and its exactly what she wanted.
So tomorrow we are having a work outing to go paintballing. Should be fun bruising up my managers haha.
I can't wait till I move into the pad. Everythings a mess in my head right now, I need to just chill. O well after chrismas I have some time off work to chill and get some time to myself. I need to get shit done and get ready for '09.
O yea I started christmas shopping today I bought 1 gift.
I started thinking about next year, I dont think I'm gonna be going to as many track events, o well.... 2009 is gonna be a learning year for me let's hope 2009 is good to me.
goals for 2009 for Roxanne: (hopefully done before ASB) -rewire car -rear over fenders -new aero
Highlight of my day:
Seeing the mountains covered in snow, we're not used it that sight down here in sunny california.
After class Brotha T and myself went on a little adventure in Redlands. We were having a jolly good time splashing in puddles, failed attempts of running old ladies over, and with the lack of a GPS navigation system getting lost in a city we've lived next to for over 15 years (You with the rain and it being night things may look a lil different..ya know??...haha) Well after many detours we made it to our destination, Evolution Paintball to get geared up for this weekend.
After we got our stuff Travis had a brilliant idea of taking his 2008 Toyota Tundra into a nearby dirt field. I agreed to his endeavor, but little did i know what was about to happen. We got about 2 feet into the dirt and Travis stopped and said, "I don't we should go in any further..we might get stuck." He puts in reverse and....yea were stuck. We tried to rock it back and forth didnt work. We put some floor mats under the tire..no bueno. So after all that God took the form of a 1987 Toyota 4runner and out jumped a mohawk haired dude.
So lesson learned this is the real "FOUR WHEELS OF FURY":
Last day of school with 5 hrs until my math final. This test will determine if I pass or fail the class. I shouldn't have to be worrying about this final but some complications occurred and caused the status of my current grade. Anyways, the test should be a breeze and I will be very glad to get this semester over and done with. I have a lot of things to get done over winter break.
One thing I really need to finish is my black 240. I bought it for dirt cheap with plans to flip it and make some quick cash. However, being a good boyfriend and all I've decided to keep it and give it to my girl so she can get rid of her 350z and we can have some extra cash for the new place. But you know I'm probably gonna be driving it every once and awhile so I decided to make the car look half decent. I picked up some new wheels, I got some used coilovers, and paint is coming. I want to show these people with busted ass 240s that its possible to make your car look decent even if you are on a tight budget.
So by the end of January...fresh paint and new suspension.
The weekend was pretty koo, worked on sat and partied it up at night with Brotha T, for his 20th birthday. But with a good night comes a bad day. I didnt get out of bed till like 1pm on Sunday no hangover just a waste of a day but it was all worth it.
Onto other news my black 240 is still chillen in the garage. Still needs a few more things done to it, but im just too lazy to do. (I hate working on cars) I give props to all the mechanics out there. I was suppose have this thing painted this month but most likely next month will be the month.
Speaking of next month Eileen and I have gotten our own place to stay. Its no mansion or anything impressive, but it's something that im proud of. Ill post some pics when we move in.
Now I gotta get some studying done. 5hrs until my Chem final. Wish me luck!!!!
Song of the hour:
Wednesday, November 12, 2008
So I gotta test in a few hours and decided to hit up the blogspot to take a lil break. I took my girl to see the show WICKED over the weekend and I must say that shit was dope. Maybe because I went in with low expectations, but I would really recommend people to see it. It doesn't matter if you like plays or musicals (because I definately dont) you'll probably enjoy it.
gotta study now
ive been stuck on this song for a minute I have no clue why:
Today......was a pretty lame day. I really did not do anything memorable or worthwhile. My morning was a blur, my classes were a blur, and with the day coming to an end I can conclude that October 8, 2008 will be a day not to remember.
Days like this makes me feel as if I need to make every day worthwhile. What I mean is, I want to be able to come home and feel accomplished, and today was not one of those days.
I have a lot of stuff running through my head right now that it's starting to stress me out..well I shouldn't say stress it would be more like worry. I have never worried about anything too much until now. I do not know why I'm in this state of mind but I have a good instinct that it is for the better. I'm sure some of you believe that things happen for a reason right?
TIP OF THE DAY: Surround yourself by people who feel the way that you want to feel and eventually you'll jump in.
Well this is my first blog....kinda..i was drunk on the last one!!
well since then, I've got a running car since my last hatch had to get stolen (FUCK CAR THIEVES YOU FUCKING DICKLESS, CLAP-HAVING CHICKEN FUCKERS!!) I now rock the '92 CB7 Accord ( pray for me, and hope that it doesn't get ganked either!!)
I'm attempting to study for my Series 7 license (broker license) but I have failed many times to open the book...the book is fucking BRO-TAL, and I think I have about 2 more months to know it in and out...but hopefully I can move out of this hell hole called Phoenix and back to Smoggy/Sunny So-Cal!
I gots a tempory roomate now, Mike. I lived with him before, and now he's living with me until he leaves until November (=[ gonna miss the guy!!), and with him and my lil hellraiser Ares (my Pussy =D) I gots a family bwhahahaha
Well and i might get a second job too...resorts out here are plentyful, or this record shop called Zia, they sell a bunch of hard to find cds...chit is BAD AZZ!!!
So that's all for today...and I'll leave ya with a artist that I've unearthed, BusDriver from LA, with his song, Avantcore! =D =D!!! remember, shower after sekz people!!
Now amongst all the street artist I like what this guy has done. There are so many people out there expressing their art on public walls, which I have no problem with. I personally wish I could do what these guys can do with a spray can a few different tips. So when I see the work these artists throw up for all of us to see, I imagine how these guys could use their art to make money. I know that some people may say "it ain't for the money its for the art", but why not make money doing what you love. Maybe I won't understand because I don't live that life only dream it. But enough of me dreaming let's get back to R2G2. This guy sells his artwork, puts his artwork on shirts, and just makes money of what he enjoys doing. Maybe I'll have to hit Randy up and do a little feature on him on StackDatCheese.
So my son Marley named after the great Bob Marley, must be one of the best additions to my life in a long while and I can't forget his mama Eileen she's wonderful too ; ) Eileen and I got him on June 30, 2008 and he was born on March 23, 2008. Like my brother Travis said, I wish this dog could talk. He would probably say so many awesome things that one could not absorb it all at one time. haha just joking ... but he is awesome. So yea that's my son he's the shit.
Back in early 2007 after many street drift sessions and numerous drunken nights at the home of Jerry Garcia, and after the unexciting event of obtaining a beer belly because we drank a lot. (im not joking we did drink a lot) Fancy Pancy arose. Now this crew, team, clique, whatever the hell you want to call it, does not care for being the best drifters, or having the coolest cars, (not that we don't care about having cool cars or like to progress our skills) Fancy Pancy is out there to just have a blast and have fun. There are wayyy to many people trying to make drifting way to serious and wayyy less fun. Who cares if there is another guy who drifts better than you. Who cares if some other dude has a big head because of how much power he has. Just drive your car for yourself not for other people. Just remember to keep it fancy
