I can't wait to get my pair in. Hopefully they get shipped fast, but I'm not counting on it. I'll probably have them in by next Thursday or Friday.

Madden with Samer...
Just for my own memory purposes...
I'm up 7-5 right now.
Mind you, I don't have the game, I don't have an Xbox or PS3, and I've played exactly 15 games. Just wait until I learn the details and intricacies of the game... kidding, I think this is my best. I don't play it often enough to get considerably better.
(Damn Pittsburgh Steelers.)

Zengo DC...
Alan, Joe, Nikki, and I ate here for Restaurant Week. We had lunch. We're trying to get another one in before the week is over... well that's tomorrow. Hopefully we can find a good place. I got a box with some sushi, green beans and mushrooms, and steak. My steak was maaaaaad good! Then for dessert was churros and some chocolate thing.
And if anyone ever wondered what I go to the hospital every day for... well I stand in front of this light when I go... a set amount of time for my front and then the same time on my back... I'm currently at 4:30 on each side. I'm just working my way up to 7 minutes. I try to go up 15 seconds every 2-3 days.

Revis Robbed...
The DPOY award was given to Charles Woodson. Sure, he had around 20 more tackles and 3 more interceptions. But please explain to us Ben throwing for 503 yards against you or your two games against the Vikings this season or the most recent game - giving up 51 points to the Cardinals and Kurt Warner throwing 84%.
Revis shut down top wide-receivers all year long and anchors the backfield of the #1 defense in the game.
"Woodson has made some huge plays this year, without a doubt. But he has also given up some big plays, as well. Revis, on the other hand, has consistently shut down the best WR's in the league.
Against Andre Johnson, Randy Moss (twice), Marques Colston, Terrell Owens (twice), Mike Sims-Walker, Steve Smith, Antonio Bryant, Roddy White, Reggie Wayne and Chad Ochocinco (twice), Revis allowed only a total of 36 catches for 339 yards and 2 TD's.
That's an average of 2.8 catches for 26 yards and 0.15 TD's per game, in 13 games against WR's that anyone would take on their fantasy team. "
"In average yards allowed to top receivers, the Jets lead the league by a wide margin at 30.5 yards per game - and that's almost always been Revis' man. Washington (43.6), San Diego (44.5), Philadelphia (45.5) and Green Bay (48.5) follow. In average yards-after-the-catch, the Jets are first, at 2.6 yards, followed by Indy (2.9), Philadelphia (3.1), Denver (3.1) and Cincinnati (3.2)."

Local News...
So, I was on Yahoo and clicked on this news article that was about some officer killing his neighbor's dog, but that was in the county over from mine. I typed in Manassas to look for news stories. Then, these came up:
http://www2.insidenova.com/isn/news/crime/article/breaking_news_bank_robber_hits_city_wachovia/50184/
This one is about a bank robber that's robbed 3 other banks in the area. In this particular story, he robbed a bank that I pass by every single day on my way to the hospital... since I go everyday for the most part. I've gone 15 days in a row up until yesterday. I usually leave my house at 3:20-3:25 and pass the corner that the bank is on at around 3:30-3:35. The bank robber struck at 3:30 and then fled on foot. It's crazy I didn't go yesterday. I could've seen this guy running haha.
http://www2.insidenova.com/isn/News/crime/article/man_arrested_in_new_years_stabbing/50224/#comments
This story is about a guy that stabbed his girlfriend on New Year's day. Finally U.S. Marshal found him in this apartment hiding. The apartment is right across the street from the hospital that I go to... literally right across from my hospital.. not like how others say, "Oh it's across the street," but it's really a few blocks down. NO, right across!
It's an eerie feeling. I feel like Manassas is so safe and I never see any cops arresting anybody... aside from people being pulled over. It's crazy to me that something happens everyday, but we just don't hear about it unless we look for the information ourselves since Manassas isn't really going to get any time on the evening news.

Ten Ren's...
Nikki and I hadn't eaten at Ten Ren's in a long time.
I got the general tso with rice. Nikki got the tonkatsu with rice. Then for drinks, I tried something new - peach green tea. Nikki got the usual passion fruit green tea. Oh, and they got that new delicacies platter if you can't decide if you want fish balls, cheese wontons, or chicken nuggets.

D.C.'s Shooting Guard....
Gilbert, Gilbert, Gilbert. I'm not judging you or anything, but damn! Time to throw out my signed shoe, jersey, and ball. Okay, maybe I'll keep that ball since I won that from you at Tyson's.

J-E-T-S Jets Jets Jets Jets! + Clue (The Office Edition)...
I can't believe the Jets made it! Seriously. I can't put it into words enough, but our season seemed a lot worse than 9-7. It must've been all those heart wrenching losses and 20 Sanchize interceptions... and the way they came in bunches. Oooohhhh, here we come Cincy. If Mark can manage the game the same way next week, if our corners can play shut down defense again, and if our offensive line can dominate Cincy's line again, it's a wrap! Then again, Cincy will be at home with home field advantage haha.
While watching the game, I was with Adrianne and Krista at Adrianne's house... catching up, eating, and playing Clue. The Office Edition was pretty dope. I'm trying to buy my own. Stanley was killer like 4 times haha. I won 4, KB won 3, and A won 1. Loser!
But yeah, go JETS!
Ray's Hell Burger + Janno's B-day...
Ray's Hell Burger on 12/28:
Nik with the crowd in the background. We were all the way in the back. Newbs!
Here's my burger. The fries were all right, but that sweet catsup near the edge of the table made everything delicious. As for my burger, yum! It was OD big though. It had these buns with a bunch of sesame seeds, a big patty, bacon, some sort of cheese melted on the patty, red and green peppers, mushrooms, onions, and a tomato. Next time, I'm going to try the most expensive thing they got. Apparently the ingredients are top notch.
It looks like one bit, but it was probably more like 3 haha.
Janno's birthday party held at my house:
The usual folks were sitting here in the tattoo area, while Janno's friends (random ass people... albeit cool, still random) were on the couches singing karaoke and eating. The rest of us were here doing hookah and shots for a good 3 hours.
Hi, Nikki! You've still yet to see me doing hookah in person haha. Here ya go!

Favorite Moments of 2009...
Not in order... for the most part haha.
1. San Diego Day 9 - Anniversary!
Driving up to LA from San Diego in the AM, the Getty, Third Street Promenade, Orange Hill Restaurant in OC anniversary dinner compliments of my boy Jon Wong, Downtown Disney, drinking at some random bar followed by more drinking at some random night club at Anaheim Garden Walk with Jon and Johanna, then getting driving back down to San Diego the same night. Oooohhhh-weeeee!
2. San Diego Day 4 - Disney Land!
Too many pictures and too many happy moments to post about.
3. New York - Spring Break
I didn't get to take too many pictures in NY. People are moving too fast, and you gotta keep up. I went with my best friend, Samer. We stayed at his grandparents' house as usual. Fun as usual. Had to hit up the usual eateries and of course the Apple store for Samer. F.A.O. Schwarz is right next door to the Apples store.. no pics, but that place is glorious for big kids like me.
4. Playing against Gilbert Arenas
I wish Timi could've taken pictures of me. Oh well! Thinking back now, it wasn't that cool, but wow, when I came home that day, I felt like the luckiest dude ever. I mean damn, I played against my favorite basketball player. How many people can say that? Haha.
5. My brothers' birthday party
Never had I gotten this wasted before. I guess the stories of people telling me about myself the day after was the funniest part. Oh yeah, no hangover! Yessssss.
6. Thanksgiving
Not much happened outside of eating, but spending the first half of the day and night with my family was much needed. Everyone lives in other places now, so getting us all together was very cool. The highlight was probably doing hookah with my brothers, relaxing to some drinks, and really just talking about life. Very appreciated. I left halfway through the night to spend what was left of Thanksgiving with Nikki, her family, MA, Vince, Lauren, JR, Catherine, and their kids.
7. San Diego Day 2
L&L's for breakfast, Mission beach, Roberto's Mexican food >>> Santana's across the street, sand castles, sand forts lol, beautiful skies, and some Chinese restaurant for dinner.
8. Bye, Kiesha!
No words, only tears. Hahahaha.
(Thanks to Faye for the photo)
9. The journey to #27
From the regular season to the ALDS against the Twins to the ALCS against the Angels to the World Series against the Phillies. Every play was appreciated.
10. This isn't really just one moment, but I enjoyed all those moments that I went out to the post office to send out my shoes and to cash my money order. It wasn't so much the money that I liked, but just knowing that someone across the country would enjoy the shoes that I once enjoyed. I mean if I'm not wearing them anymore, why not sell them and let someone who really wants them have them? I sold about 30 pairs this past year. OD! But it happened and I don't regret one shoe sale.... OK, maybe my Foams. But, they did get me $300 haha.
And a shout out to the best and most prettiest girlfriend in the world for helping make this year a special one... and just for being a part of my life on a daily basis.
Another one for my family. I couldn't do anything without you guys...
Oh, and praise God! Duh!

Top 10 Albums of 2009...
Given I didn't buy a lot of albums this past year, I didn't have a lot to work with for this list. Anyway, here it goes in order:
10. The Dream - Love vs Money
9. Noah and the Whale - The First Days of Spring
8. Raekwon - OB4CL2
7. Clipse - 'Til the Casket Drops
6. John Mayer - Battle Studies
5. Eminem - Relapse
4. Maxwell - Black Summer's Night
3. Kid Cudi - Man on the Moon
2. Coconut Records - Davy
1. Jay-Z - Blueprint 3
If Drake's mixtape was an album, it would definitely be high on the list. Also, I'm not sure when it was released, but the soundtrack for the movie "Smart People" would also be on the list. I got so much random music that couldn't be put on the list because 1) they weren't released this year and 2) they didn't dominate my rotation like these albums do/did. I'm not saying these are the "best" albums or anything like that. I'm just saying that these were the ones that I played and enjoyed the most.

What's Been Going On...
My brother bought this for me from IKEA. It's a lot cheaper now ($20). I should've waited. Damn! But yeah, it let me get rid of the huge wooden thing I used to have in my room. Now, it's just this and my shoes on the floor. Although, soon I'm going to buy this dark brown storage unit from IKEA made up of a bunch of squares. My brother has it in the basement. So yeah, I'm gonna bite him on that.
Before Fune left for Vegas, we went to Nikki's house late one night and found this puzzle partially done. We couldn't leave until we finished it haha. What a waste of time. I won't lie though. We felt real accomplished when it was done. Unfortunately, Nikki's little cousins from Saudi Arabia punished this joint. Now it's in shambles.
Before the snow storm hit, my brother decided to buy some food for like 3 days since we would be snowed in. Nobody plows for us around here. Well, actually, he sent my sister-in-law to go shopping since he was at work. Anyway, she chose this for me as my breakfast item. I got addicted real bad haha. These are crack!
I forget when this was, but it was during the Christmas party for the couples at Nikki's house. Thanks, Nik! This was delicious.
Along with this big ass cookie for dessert.
We spent our Christmas Eve at my oldest brother's house. There was more food than during Thanksgiving. I was stuffed like...
This was on 12/27 at a Christmas party with our long-time friends. I kinda just tagged along though haha. They had a gift exchange, but of course I just watched. Thank God cuz their gifts for each other were expensive lol. But yeah, to cap the night, we had a bunch of drinks and smoked hookah. I think we ended up going through three flavors. Yum! Oh yeah, all this while watching a bootleg Avatar haha. The Bacardi 151 made me want to puke. OD strong!
If I had a Nikon or something, this would've came out a lot better lol.

I don't feel like writing a review or anything like that...
Just watch it in 3-d, damn it!
"I see you."

Spyker C8 Aileron Spyder...
I just found out the name of this car via NT. I saw this car out in San Diego when Nikki, her sister, her cousin, and I went out to this car dealership that had a bunch of Lambos, Ferraris, Porsche's. For some reason, this was the dopest car to me.

Pick-Up Lines...
I need to try some of these on my nubian queen... maybe they'll yield more success than my current schemes.
Buy on 12/8...
Terrible ass cover... SMH @ Kaws and Clips
But, I'm still coppin'! Haha.
Ya'll are lucky that my CD burner is broken! Each of you enjoy the 12 cents you make from each CD sold. Don't spend it all in one place.
