Eye on You

I have this song on repeat. Obviously when I like a song I play it out. Also check out someone's choreography to the song - WERK! Check it.

Macaroni & Beef

This morning as I usually do I went to the gym. It's been pretty warm lately so I decided I needed to stock up on some fluids for the week in case I get thirsty - Diet Coke, Limeade, Water, etc. etc. Since I worked out I was hungry so I decided to go to the deli to get something to eat. I decided on the Macaroni & Beef.

An overweight older lady who was standing next to me hears what I ordered, turns to me, waves her finger in the air and says - "That's not healthy."

Ummmmm.....Irony!

Look Alike

I know I don't look like too many celebrities but I have gotten a couple. I have been told I look like Jai Rodriguez from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. I've also been told I look like Wilmer Valderamma from That 70s show. Recently I was told I looked like Diego from Go Diego Go which is a children's cartoon.

Well today I got one that was a little shocker. Someone told me I look like Alec Mapa. He's a Filipino Comedian/Actor who was in Ugly Betty and Desparate Housewives. I don't know if I do look like him? Is it just because we're both Filipino. What do you think? A picture is below.

Radio

With technology these days there are certain devices which people don't really use anymore. One is my stereo system. By owning a couple ipods and speakers for the ipod I have rarely used my stereo system.

Well today I was compelled to hit play and see what cd was in there. It was actually a mix cd. The first song was Beenie Man - Girls Dem Sugar. Other songs were old but still songs that I like - Afterparty and another.

Here's a video of Girls Dem Suga It's below. Enjoy!

Sister

Happy 25th Birthday to my sister Christine.

Mom

I hope all moms yesterday had a nice and enjoyful day yesterday. Although I didn't get to spend time with my mom since she was sick I'm sure she appreciated the phone call. Here is one of my favorite photos of my mom from back in the day when she was younger in the Philippines.

Friend Lover

Do you have a friend lover? Make sure you follow these rules.

Rule 1: No Poppin Up, Up Unannounced

Rule 2: Never Leave Your Clothes At My House

Rule 3: Can't Speak, If You See Me When I'm Out

Rule 4: You Can't Stay Past 5, I Gotta Be At Work By 9

Don't know what a friend lover is check out this song. It's one of the songs I've been jamming to recently. Enjoy!

Parking

Where I live a permit is needed to park and of course I have one. I forgot that it expired yesterday and totally forgot to put the new one. If anything I should be able to put it on this morning right?

Well to my surprise I get a $53 ticket on my car for having an expired permit but what gets me is that the ticket was written at 12:03 a.m. So someone was waiting until midnight to begin writing tickets. I wasn't the only one who was ticketed but still.

That is the one thing I hate about LA is that you have to pay for parking and permits are needed everywhere. ARGH!

Happy Friday to to you too Department of Parking, Transportation or whoever the hell deals with parking.

Uncle Baby

This past weekend we celebrated my friend's Cecile's Birthday. I was able to make it to one of her festivties by joining her for dinner and having fried chicken at Knott's Berry Farm.

It was good to see friends and hang out with fun people including Nick, Isa and their little one Zavyer. He's totally adorable.

Anyhow she brought him over to say hi and she was like look it's Uncle Babe. Nick chimes in and says Uncle Lusty or Uncle Babe and eventually it led to Uncle Baby. I guess it's a combination of Lusty and Baby.

Now they're adamant at making sure that I'll be Uncle Baby.

For those who are Filipino who have a Tita Baby - I have a Ninang Baby - imagine a family party and someone yelling out Uncle Baby. I could see all the confused faces from the parentals.

All in all it's funny but not sure if I want to be called Uncle Baby. Sorry Isa and Nick.

Language

Correction - Ilocano is a LANGUAGE of the Philippines as dialect refers to a version of a language.

Ilocano

Over the weekend Melissa and I have been embracing our Ilocanoness.

For those of you who don't know Ilocano. It is one of the many dialects in the Philippines. Ilocano is mainly spoken in the Northern Part of the Philippines.

Anyhow we have been speaking in Ilocano and I posted a couple songs on her facebook. It was pretty funny. Here are a couple of traditional Ilocano songs.

Well after that I posted one calle Tarong which means eggplant. Ummmm....they weren't really talking about tarongs. Think nasty y'all.

Here's the song. I dedicate all these videos to you Manang Melissa.

iConnect

Tonight I went to a hip hop dance show put on by Culture Shock Los Angeles entitled iConnect at the Luckman Fine Arts Complex. I've actually performed in this venue when I danced with Kayamanan ng Lahi years ago.

The pre-show consisted of different groups. First they had students from classes that Culture Shock teaches at local schools. Then they had Kaba Modern Legacy, Fanny Pak, and Futureshock. All those teams killed it.

I really enjoyed the show and can't wait to see what they have in store for September. The show's premise was mainly how communication affects our lives. The dancing was great but the best part I thought was the spoken word portion that immediately followed intermission.

Overall, great show. Congratulations to Culture Shock Los Angeles. The picture above is with my cousin Jeanne, her friend Nicholas and several of the members of Fanny Pak.

Fall Running

After completing the marathon in Las Vegas I figured to continue running so I can do the Pasadena Half Marathon. Well things happened - injury, illness and wasn't able to. I also forgoed doing the San Diego Rock n Roll Full Marathon.

With yesterday's festivities and how much I ate it's probably time for me to start running again. I've already started getting back into my weights routine - it's now time to get back into running.

Knowing me I can't just run and have no goal of not doing a race thus I have decided these are the races I will be aiming to do:

Disneyland Half Marathon - Sunday, September 6th

Long Beach Half Marathon - Sunday, October 11th

Rock n Roll Las Vegas Half Marathon - Sunday, December 6th

As you can see I have decided not to do any full marathons this year. Maybe in 2010. I might be adding smaller races to this as well as maybe one more half marathon. This can change based on my training. Come join me on a run.

Maybe

Here's my new song obsession that is on repeat. I've moved from Asian Pop to UK Pop. I'll make it back to American Pop eventually.

I actually really like the song. It kind of has that groove, chill . . . Jon B feel. Enjoy!

Eggs

Wishing all of you a Happy Easter.

Also here's a text I got from my friend Amy who's also a teacher.

What did the Easter Egg say to the boiling water?

It's going to take me a while to get hard. I just got laid by some chick!
