Recap

So New york was tons of fun as usual. TK and I were there for only 2 days but we made the most of it and dragged kevin along everywhere we went, hehe. I also saw scottie and ang at Mimi's bf's bday celebration at hiro lounge which was a decent place. Then afterwards we went to the park, and i was more impressed with that place compared to hiro. They had a nice courtyard with trees wrapped in lights which gave it the wow factor since the bar/lounge looked like ass from the outside. I think everyday we were in NY we stopped by Ktown which i didnt know existed prior to this trip. Me and TK stayed at Kevin's place in manhattan its surprisingly big for NY standard and its in a good location too. I also liked staying at kevin's apt because it is way different than staying in a hotel. Besides looking at it from an economical stand point, living the apt life is a lot more representative of wat a real new yorker goes through. The hassle of grocery shopping which involves carrying a duffle bag with you so you can hall ur grocery bags in the bag on your trip back. (solution: order your groceries online and get them delivered). The hassle of not having a washer/dryer in the apt. The hassle of no elevators (elevators usually in the nicer buildings with more stories) . The pros is that everything is within a subway ride away which results in your pick of whatever genre of food your heart desires. Indian? no problem. Korean? no problem Chinese? 2easy kthx.. After living like a true new yorker for a mere 2 days, i think i could live there provided an adjustment period. Everything is so fast paced that when i came back to FL i felt exhausted. And this exhaustion lingered around for 2 days in FL. However, because TK is pretty adamant in not living in cold weather that pretty much restricts my future place of residence in the southern states and california.

back tracking to the living in NY thing: because i have been to NYC a couple of times in the past im not on that "new york high" that noobies usually get (ie. Scott) so my feelings that i can adjust and tolerate NYC is actually rather significant.. yet meaningless in the long run.

foreseeable plans: bball tomorrow mornin, study, haircut, celebrate friend's bday prolly in miami, and study some more.

2nd Semester begins

Man, when i first came back to school on Jan 2nd. I was soo freaking tired. It makes me appreciate UT's schedule even more, 1 month off for xmas vacation are you kidding me. Anyways the break was good except i had no car so i didnt really get to see my old friends. I did however score a wii or 2 and pretty much ate good food, played a lot of wii, and get plenty of sleep. All of which was very much needed. The most important thing was that i got to spend a lot of time with TK.

Also big news is that i got a new laptop, because my old one died. I got the sony sz340 the same one as my bro. It is pretty much a perfect size for me, 13.3" widescreen and weighs only 4 lbs..

TK got me addicted to Heroes, a tv show on nbc.. I watched all 11 episodes so far in one day, shoulda been studying physio, o well. I highly recomend any of you guys to watch that tv shows, its pretty leet. Just d/l the torrent that has the first 11 episodes in one..

Next stop, NYC 1/13-1/15.. get to stay with kevin kwan, and hopefully see meemee. I dono if my Texan/Floridian ass can survive in the cold.. J/K i own the cold except for when i went to NYC last time and the cold owned me nearly giving me frost bite when me and tracy walked over 45 blocks in one sitting in freezing weather through central park.. lol that was awesome. Hopefully that will happen again =)
