Sooo today my dad decided to be super asian and didn't want to go anywhere that required an admission fee. Which is a pity because we went to HOLLYWOOD today.
We stopped by the San Gabriel and he didn't even want to pay the $5 dollar admission to that..
yeah so despite being in HOLLYWOOD, we didn't really do anything today.
we just kinda walked along the street and I was staring at the walk of fame while trying not to trip.
Soo erm Ms. VVN and Ms. DonkyKeung may be the only ones who get this...
Do you guys remember Mr. Superfly and Mr. Supaflyy?
And remember how Mr. Supaflyy went to HOLLYWOOD and took a picture next to Mr. Rogers's star? Well as I was walking down the walk of fame that was all I could think about and....I'm ashamed to say I flipped out a little on the inside when we got to Mr. Rogers star. Annnd I also took a picture next to it...BUT I ALSO TOOK A PICTURE NEXT TO GODZILLA'S STAR!!!
Yeah then we went and drove up to Malibu and Pepperdine...that was a really nice campus. Hahah all I could think about when we were in Malibu was Lisa Simpson being like, "Look at my new Malibu Stacey doll!!!"
oh yeah so remember last post when I flipped out about the ASTON MARTIN? well people here in SoCal seem to have a strange affixiation on Porsche SUV's, shiny new BMW Beamers, and Volkswagons. Strangely not a lot of Lexus or Cadillac..
I WANT A SHINY NEW CAR

Day 10 was really stuffed.
Sooo adhering to typical hotel behavior for our family, we woke up just before breakfast was over.
We headed out about 12ish and went to Old Town Pasadena. THEY HAD A H&M, URBAN OUTFITTERS, J. CREW, AMERICAN APPAREL, ARMANI EXCHANGE, TIFFANY & CO, JUICY COUTURE, ETC..
Sadly, I didn't buy any clothes...pathetic. but I did buy the Where's Waldo: Ultimate Travel Edition heh heh I'll be happy on the plane ride home!
We ate lunch at this place called SinBala because the people we ate with yesterday said that the potstickers were REALLY good. So we ordered them annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd discovered that they were pretty much exactly the same ones that we bought at home from the grocery store...
Then we went to go see these people who are friends with my grandparents. HOLY CRAP THEIR HOUSE IS SO BIG AND THEIR SON LIVES RIGHT NEXT TO THEM SO THE'VE GOT TWO GIGANTIC HOUSES!!! I was kinda scared that their two big doggies were going to knock me over. I had gone out to take pictures of their extensive grounds and their doggies came out and charged after me. One of them licked me and left this big streak of wet up my shirt :[
So then we went to go see their son, he is like some manager boss thing of a airplanesomethingy. HE IS SO RICH. He has that house in california and a house in Florida and Oregon. We were leaving his office and were in the parking lot. I was taking pictures of the nice cars and had just taken a picture of the Porsche and he was like, "you should take a picture of my car"
HOLY CRAP AN ASTON MARTIN!!!! He was like, "yeah I had a Lamborghini but I didn't like it."
WHAT?!?!?! ITS A FREAKING LAMBORGHINI!!!!
Anyways, he took me for a ride and WOAH remember that show like 5 years ago with Batman? He had that zoomy car with blue lights and he drove so fast between other cars that he left light trails? YEAH THATS WHAT IT FELT LIKE.

Day 9 was stuffed
Soooo Mr. AHHCHOO complaining about how you didn't get to talk to me at all the other day huh? WELLLL I waited up for you until 3 in the morning HOPING that you would get on again :(
AND I didn't even see Mr. Timon and Mr. Egg today because they went to church and we slept in. Then we went to the Ronald Reagan Library...that was interesting..there were a bunch of mannequins in the Air Force 1 plane and all I could think about was I Am Legend..
As we were leaving we saw this little kid who was all upset in the parking lot and as we walked by his mom pointed to my shirt(Bob the Tomato) and the kid got all happy. YES! My good deed of the week.
So then we went to get our hotel on the other side of LA annnd that was stupid. The maps were all wrong and like all the roads split up and become other roads and it was just...idiotic.
When we FINALLY got to the hotel and went up to our room...we opened it and saw a whole set of someone elses luggage. We went back down to the front desk and were like, "UHH either you gave us the master key or theres someone living in our room." So they gave us another room and we were pretty pooped so I just watched like 5 episodes of Sonny With a Chance.
Then we went out to dinner with another of my mom's old friends. YES MR. AHHCHOO THEY HAD TWO SONS TOO. hahah the little one is in 3rd grade but is almost as tall as me :( The other one is going to be a sophomore in college...HE'S REALLY TALL. He's 6'4"!! His chinese is REALLY REALLY good and he has a strangely appealling voice...
Anyways we were going to eat at this chinese seafood place but STUPID ASIAN PEOPLE!! It was like being in a can of sardines. AND they were totally rude. We had made reservations too!! UGH so we just gave up and went across the street to eat. hahah it was called the Happy Sheep. It was like the thing where you have a pot of boiling soup in the middle of the table and you get platters of raw meat and vegetables and etc and you stick em into the soup and cook it yourself. Quite delicious...MAN they ordered sooooo much!! After we left the resturant my stomach was like hard...it was almost like having abs. Then we went downstairs to get some shaved ice. This was like legit shaved ice...there weren't any chunks of ice and it was like eatting flurries.. Yummy.
Yeah so we took a bunch of pictures and ARGH WHY IS HE SO TALL and I was standing on like a 6inch curb and I was barely level with his shoulder :[
Ehh and we were pretty bloated and didn't really feel like moving so we just kinda fell asleep watching Disney Channel at the hotel...typical

Day 8...a little late but still
Sooo Mr. Timon, Mr. Egg, and I went to Universal Studios:Hollywood today.
I'm pooped. It really wasn't that spectacular...compared to the Universal Studios:Orlando..this was more actual information on movies and ride simulations compared to the Orlando one where there's like legit freaking roller coasters...after I went on all those "rides" I had this massive craving for a gut-dropping coaster...maybe Apollo's Chariot.
Mr. Timon is pretty interesting...no worries Mr. AHHCHOO not in that way..he's like a mix between William Su's facial features and Mr. Crisco's clothes and Mr. AHHCHOO's tanness.
California is so weird...its freezing at night..I think the last time in NC that it was this cold was like two months ago.
We went out to eat at a Japenese resturant for dinnerand wow it was like a resturant where the workers were actually Japanese...but still I had no idea that the Salmon Entree would be switched for a Samo Entry..lol I love asian accents.
OH that reminds me..as we were walking into Universal Studios we see a HUGE mass of asians..there were like 4 tour buses full of asians getting off with a red carpet and everything..just because of all those asians everywhere around the park were signs written in Chinese.
Hahaha Mr. Egg was too much of a wuss to go on the Mummy Ride with me and Mr. Timon so he waited for us outside of the exit...when we came out we see him uncomfortably clutching my bookbag while sitting next to a fat lady flossing her teeth.
When we got lunch we were next to this asian family and you know how theme parks like this don't allow you to bring in food? well this Chinese mom is drinking out of a metal can of Pediasure and when they threw their trash away we were like "what? are those leaves?! and is that string?! HUH? HOW'D THEY SNEAK IN ZONG ZE?"
Well we came back and they showed us their video of their trip to Taiwan and I was like"......WAHHH MR. AHHCHOO IS DOING THIS RIGHT NOW TOOO."

Day 7 (technically Day 8 now but I'm on Cali time)
Sooo I went to sleep last night with the full intention of waking up at 8 again to wecbcam with Mr. AHHCHOO. Thaaaat didn't happen. This time Sleep > Mr. AHHCHOO. Sorry boo.
I finished packing this morning and then we were off to the airport! Flying standby is pretty great. One flight is only $11...sooo flying the three of us on a connecting flight from Dallas/Fort Worth cost us aboutttt $70ish. Our flight was at 10:45 and I pretty much konked out as soon as we got on. I'd have to say that was one of my most uncomfortable konking out ever. Yes even more uncomfortable than konking out underneath a bench on a cold, stone floor with people kicking me with their heels. I don't even know why it was so uncomfortable...maybe cause the people who put the seats in the airplanes have obviously never slouched in their life. sheesh. freaking Professor McGonagall. Thennn we got on the connecting flight to LA...this was better because the seats had the headphone pluggy in thing and there was NBC for American Airlines playing. Hahaha when we landed the stewardess was like "Welcome to Los Angeles the home of the Los Angeles Lakers the winners of the 2010 NBA Finals"
Anyways LA traffic is stoopid. Who'd have thought that it would take 20 minutes to drive 3 miles on the highway? So we got to their house and looked around..man this SoCal weather is BALLIN. except that its like freezing at night.
So the marching band dudes...I shall call them Mr. Timon and Mr. Egg...whoever figures out their names gets a prize...not really but they'll get my undying love...so they're pretty cool.
Mr. Timon looks a lot like Willim Su except skinnier and tan and less nerdy and tan. I went to youth group with them and like every one is super tan. I thought this one guy was Indian until I saw his face...they're pretty nerdy..I guess cause they're not really LA but like two small cities away from LA. The girls there are pretty stereotypical..either pretty fobby or LA-skanky. Their youth director was pretty cool though..a lot less nerdier than ANDY. They seemed pretty unruly though..people were just kinda running around afterwards and yes I am aware people run around after our yg but they're in like a legit sanctuary...oh and they have no college group..hrmm its youth/college.
Oh yeah so like all of those girls in the yg think I'm like mixed...and the youth director thought I was in college. I was like YES PEOPLE DON'T THINK I'M STILL 12!!!!
OW. i just got my lip caught in my retainer. painful :(

Day 6
Sooo I noticed today that I seem to start all of my blogs with "Sooo." Hmmm.
Weirdo.
Oh I also noticed that Ms. Money is counting down on her blog and I'm counting up!
ookay that had no relevance or point...at all
I must be in the zone for noticing stuffs. I put my contacts in with my right hand and take em out with my left hand. weird.
SOOO I woke up SUPER early this morning(8:15 lol) to webcam with Mr. AHHCHOO.
SOOO I woke up SUPER early this morning(8:15 lol) to webcam with Mr. AHHCHOO.
MAN. I must really like him to give up sleep!! So that was fun..we did that for about an hour and a halfish...haha the whole time he wore his AMAZING HAT that Ms. VVN totally wants to borrow.
Trust me..once you see it you'll want it.
Yeah so me and my parents are going to Cali tomorrow morning...and I get to go to UNIVERSAL STUDIOSSSSS. YESSS.
The only awkward part is that we're staying with an old friend of my mom's and she has two sons, 17 & 15, annnnnd the 17 year-old-one is taking me around Universal cause my parents are too lame to do it. My mom was like, "Don't fall for him!! You'll break Mr. AHHCHOO's heart!!" annnd then she was like, "On second though, if you do then it'll be soo cool that we're such good friends and our kids get together!!!" My dad was like, "Don't fall for him!! He's in marching band!!!" Yess! Way to break the asian stereotype dude...
Oh yes I also apparently have to go to youth group with them tomorrow night. awkwardddd
Ah yes so I also helped Ms. JK (who shall from now on be known as Ms. DonkyKeung) come up with her own blog name-DonkyKeung...after a succession of things like JayKay, JustKidding, JayKeung, JayKungFu, BigBootayestKeung, VeryLargeButtocks, IHasBigButt, GottaDonk, GotDonk?, etc...Of course Mr. Bra was also helping her come up with names-JOCEYPOSSY, JOCEMELON, JOCELION- but his were nowhere near my caliber ;)
Ms. COW came to badminton tonight! It's like the only time our schedules don't conflict. SADNESS. And then Lil Miss Bells runs around demanding piggyback rides from the both of us...oh and she cut her toe and her bandaid came off like 3 times..eww
Ms. COW of course is like thuperduper tan compared to my pastyness..just like Mr. AHHCHOO.
Curse you and your dark melanin pigments.
OH and one last thing. EVERYONE PRAY FOR MRS. LIZ CANTINO AND HER BABY THAT IS COMING SOON AND ALSO FOR MY FRIEND MR. KenDoll AND HIS GIRLFRIEND MS. ShellBEE AND THEIR BABY THAT IS DUE IN LIKE...3 DAYS!!!!
