My days...

The past couple of days was so unproductive but fun nonetheless! I didn't get home until 3 AM the night before. Was hanging out with the Darren, Derek, Hong and Dexter for the better part of the night down in Irvine. It's all good though because driving home at 2 in the morning is the best! No traffic!

Woke up a bit late today, I didn't get a chance to stop by UCI's Wayzgoose Faire to visit some friends who were manning one of the booths there. I did end up arriving at the Grad ICS BBQ at the Mason’s park nearby on time though! Never have I seen so much brain-power trying to BBQ before. It was fun to see my fellow graduate nerds doing something different rather than theorizing or programming some insanely obfuscated algorithms! :smile:

Anyhow, Warren had this great idea that he found online to use Krispy Kreme buns to make the ultimate burger for the BBQ! We have been entertaining and toying with the idea of a Krispy Kreme burger for the entire past week. Warren actually went online and googled it up too! Today, we finally had the chance to try out the idea out! Below, you can witness our masterpiece! Krispy Kreme donut buns sandwiching a juicy cheesy patty with a variety of condiments! Amazingly and surprisingly, it tasted pretty good. Only Warren and I were the only ones brave enough to try it at first! However later on, we successfully persuaded Ryan and Judy to try a bite of it. Seriously, I thought it was pretty good, a bit sweet on the outside and salty in the inside! Yummy! With the pickles inside, it almost tasted like a Hawaiian Burger that you can get at Islands. Please, the way I see it is that if you are willing to spend 4-6 years of your life just to get a PhD after your name, let’s not be scared of a little sweet burger! :lol: (I’m so going to get flamed for this comment).


Krispy Kreme Burger!!! Tasty!

...
Why do I look like I'm on one of the Fear Factor's Episodes! On the right picture is Warren's enjoying his KK burger!

I abruptly had to leave the BBQ early to start driving to the Poker Party over my coworker’s house. But I managed to stop by Derek’s place on the way back. Darren was over there too chilling and shooting some SS mofos in the Call of Duty game. I joined in the action but sorry Derek, I grenaded a few of our teammates…by “accident” of course. :smile: That game is too captivating!

I left Derek's place and headed up north to the city of Rancho Cucamonga! Took me about an hour of driving from Irvine. Finally I got there and realized that I was like 4 hours late! Sorry Pete, yeah yeah…bros before hoes...I know I know! If it's any other days I would have to agree with you...but today, no hoes involved! I just had too many scheduled events going on! :wink: Hehe...I missed the Poker tourney and almost missed Jessie because she has to be in bed 10 minutes after I've arrived. I got to play with her for a few minutes though, she showed me her new little doll. Oh ya, thanks Brian for putting little Jessie on the phone and trying to make her say "Uncle Son" while I was on my way there! That was cool. I did miss Sydney though, I forgot how early babies have to go to bed by! It's been so busy lately, I think I'm going to make an effort to visit your daughters some time this week Pete.

Anyhow, I left Pete's house around midnight and joined up with Kim and Stephanie at a local Starbucks nearby my house before it closed down for the night. Kim, you should've not listen to me last night and everything would've been okay!! ... You are such a playa :lol: Maybe one of these days you will admit that Son’s always right when it comes to relationship...hehe.

It was a long couple of days. I finally will get some much needed rest before the start of a new week. I have so much reading to be done! Especially my Computer Law class! If any of you are completely and utterly bored! Feel free to email me, I'll send you some cool copyright, patent, trademark papers to read! Maybe you can read and decipher them for me and just tell me the gist of it! I'll treat you to dinner or something! :wink: The class is pretty cool so far, makes me want to get a law degree after this! But with the amount of reading we have to do...maybe I'll think about it instead...

By the way, I ordered two laptops a few days ago! Helped Kim out with ordering one of the 700m's for her. You owe me one for this! I woke so damn early to make that order! I also put in an order for a Dell 6000d for myself. I'm not sure if I’m going to keep it or not though. I don’t really need an extra computer that desperately at the moment. So I might have to end up canceling it soon before it gets shipped. :sad: Maybe you can help me decide what to do! How 'bout you leave a comment below and let me know if I should keep it or not! Remember that I can and should use that $1k for paying off some grad school loans! But then I did give up going to USC just so I can save some money by going to UCI...decision decision!

BTW: Laureen! See the lack of pictures on my blog?!! That's because you haven't stolen EJ’s camera and send me all of the pictures at her b-day party!! :smile:

I need to update my Resume and Portfolio one of these days, they are getting a bit outdated now that I haven’t touched them in almost a year! Most of the links aren't working properly anymore! :sad:

The burger looks good but I can't imagine how many calories in there. If you don't need a laptop why you need to spend $1k?

Krispy Kreme Burger vs Son! Oh yea haha I went to Islands and ordered some taco there. Best advice I can give is NEVER ORDER TACOS AT ISLANDS!

Darren - April 17, 2005 03:48 PM

mmmm KK burger...Imma try that with fish :grin: I'll call it KK Wahoos Fish taco.

Darren wantssss a pprrrecious laptop too!

Roco - April 17, 2005 11:33 PM

Maybe KK Burger = best idea since camel cheese.

Darren - April 18, 2005 01:15 AM

i'll never foget all of our late-nite convos filled with such "interesting" subjects....lol! and yes, Son, you should stop doing so much friendly fire in FPS games :wink:

dude, i'll bet even with yo9ur outdated resume, it looks more impressive than mine! haha

Darren - April 18, 2005 01:26 PM

ooops, was using Derek's computer and he forgot to switch the username, when he commented.

btw, roco, What is camel cheese?

Son - April 18, 2005 09:29 PM

Parnoto, the burger probably wasn't that bad in calories! Ya, I should just refuse the delivery whenever it gets here. :confused:

Travis!, you WoW slacker!!! I've heard that the tacos there aren't that bad!! Maybe Son = 1, KK Burger = 0!!!

Roco, OMGS! Camel cheese! From Egypt! That Egyptian girl! That's modder!! :lol:

Darren, thanks dude! Yeah those convos are too damn interesting, only if we have them recorded down...ummm...maybe not! Yeah I noticed the comment you made on your site, it's all good. :razz:
