looking for shoes?

check out this cool site, sneaker stores, that uses google maps functionality to list sneaker joints — anywhere in the world. Clicking on a country and then a listing generates a map, directions, a store description, brands carried and the store’s website. freakin’ dope.

I’m back!

(Belated) Happy New Year! I’ve been back in LA, getting swamped by school work and not keeping my new years resolution to … PLAY … MORE … GOLF. This will change, starting today. But first, updates! I enjoy taking pics and took a bunch over break. I do, however, royally suck and a lot of them came out blurry! CRAP! But there were a few that came out okay, and I thought I’d give my update in images (with captions). Enjoy!

Hello, Manila!
break was filled with family, lots of laughs and good eats.

totally enjoyed hanging out with my older brother, Mark…

… apparently, so did my mom!

And as I mentioned, good eats!
A sampling — Chilean Sea Bass …

and Seafood something (the name escapes me). Yum!

but all good things come to an end, and I came home after my 3 week break.

since then, I’ve been studying …
oh, and playing a ton of videogames …

… on my new Vizio 42″ LCD TV!

props to G$ for convincing me that bigger IS better and for approving the 42″ size for our future bedroom!

In addition to my latest splurge, I’ve bought 2 pairs of rockin’ shoes. But I’ll save that for the next post. Have a good weekend!

it’s weightless and I can clip it anywhere. i might lose it, but at 1 gig, it’ll rock, i’m sure. it’s almost as small as the iFlea:
