Friday: "What do you want to eat?" Every time we go out, this question gets asked. Where did we end up? Curry house. Sar and I knocked out in my car for about 30 minutes waiting for Jason to get to the restaurant. That was nice.
Saturday: Downtown library with Sar and a visit to S's apartment in K-town. She let me borrow the entire "Full Metal Alchemist" series. It's an Anime for all you non-jpop followers. Dinner at TGIF. Kept Sar company while she graded papers.
Sunday: Birthday lunch for Sar's cousin. Spent some quality time with Charlie. And then to my house for Sar to do some homework and for me to watch the last episode of "Initial D: 4th stage" and the first episode of FMA. Dinner with J at Wonton Time. Then hung out with Hoho at her house until it was time to go home.
So that's 3 days of excitement. While Sar and i were at the birthday lunch, we got to talking with her aunt C and uncle R. Apparently they spent a few days in Vegas partying it up until 2am. Keep in mind, her aunt and unlce are around their late 40's, mid 50's. Sar and myself are sitting there going... man, 10pm is already late for us.
I think more than ever do we need to learn from our elders. =P

Monday = Tuesday
I love holidays because it feels like the week goes by faster.
Today i am all alone. J is out in El Segundo training and Tom (coworker) left early for a Laker game.
It's more quiet and i get a lot more work done.
I find that having coworkers makes me slack. Especially mine =P

Three-day weekend
Nothing really worth mentioning. The sky decided to rain on Friday night which equated to bad traffic all the way home from work. That sucked. Had dinner with Sar at "Raphael's" off of Beverly and Wilcox. Good food, but the service was eh. Watched "Stepmom" at my house and called it a night. Saturday i went to Longo Lexus to help my 18 year-old cousin buy a IS250. The dealer wouldn't budge so i guess that went out the door. Left and waited at Costco (with hotdog and soda) for Sar to wake up from her nap. Drove to her house where she was still asleep, so i opted to take Charlie out for a walk while she napped. Sar finally woke up as i was coming back, and apparently HoHo saw me and Charlie walking by, so she walked JoJo over to play with Charlie. Then off for some dinner at Petrillo's. The food was good, but the service was eh (again). I'd probably go back there, but i gotta remember to not order the medium pizza. That sucker is HUGE! Ended the night with Big Daddy on Sar's Hello Kitty entertainment center. Sunday i woke up extra early and went to have Dim Sum with my family, Sar, my aunt, uncle, and cousin, and my sister's S.O. After that, Sar and i went to the MTC for some shopping. Came back to Sar's house to have dinner with her family (yummy swedish meatballs!) and watched TV in Sar's room until it was time to go home. Monday i woke up SUPER late (1:30pm) and met up with Sar to go return some books down at the Japanese Library in Little Tokyo and then to Almasor park to play some ball with my co-worker Tom. Out of 3 games of 2 on 2, we lost 3. -_- I blame it on me being fat. Granted i'm 25 and Tom is 33, we just can't move like these kids. Sar had brought Charlie to the park as well where he got some good outing time. Dropped off Charlie back at home and then Sar and i went to Ross and Marshall's to find shoes. No luck at both stores so we just headed over to Von's to buy some fried chicken and potato wedges to accompany my leftover Petrillo's pizza. Again... it was HUGE! After stuffing ourselves, we watched my old copy of Lady and the Tramp. I still can't believe Sar had never seen it before!
So now that i've typed out this long entry... i hope it posts... since Kel had a lil trouble with hers...
AND IT WORKS! (<----There's your answer, Kel! Works for me.)

Air Force One (No... not the rap song)
So before we went to the Ronald Reagan Library, Sar showed me the website. I kinda looked around and saw this:
It's totally cool! It makes sounds and flashes LED's.
Everyone thinks it's super cute. First Sar, then Ho and J... and then I went to Infiniti to get my first "virgin" oil change and when i handed the service rep the keys, she kept playing with my plane. Then after the oil change was done, i went up to the counter to pick up my keys and pay, the receptionist wanted to steal my keychain =P
Hmm.. i think i'd better hide it. I may lose my one and only souvenir from the museum. =X

UCI == Import Model College
For all you UCI ICS majors out there, if you were in ICS around 2001-2003, you might have seen this girl: (Clicky pic)
I remember seeing this girl in the computer lab with all these programming geeks surrounding her and practically doing her programs for her. It was hilarious because i think she's pretty ugly.
Here's a lil excerpt from her interview:
DSport: You are computer science graduate from UCI, how did you end up being a paralegal? Jasmin: I was a criminology major before computer science. I quickly found out that I didn't want to program for the rest of my life. I'm consider going to law school, but I want to see if this is what I want to do. Working as a paralegal, I get a good look at this field.
Hmmmm doesn't sound right. Let me try...:
DSport: You are computer science graduate from UCI, how did you end up being a paralegal? Jasmin: I quickly found out that I didn't want to program for the rest of my life because i can't program for shit because everyone else did it for me.... teehee!"
There we go!
I don't even know what my point is in posting her picture. Oh well. Eye-candy for the site if you readers think she's hot *shrug*

Valentine's Day
We celebrated on Sunday since Valentine's happened to fall on a Tuesday this year. Sar wanted to do something different, so i suggested the Ronald Reagan Library out in Simi Valley. Unknown to me, Sar didn't want to go. But after getting there, she found it was quite interesting and had a good time. It's a pretty cool museum outlining the life of our 40th president. Ofcourse the coolest part was the entire Air Force One where you could do a walk through of the entire aircraft. I have pics, but i haven't uploaded yet. Look for pictures later.
Today will be a small outing with the love of my life. =)

You can guess what happened to me over the weekend...
If you guessed nothing, you win..... nothing. HA.
Sar was still getting over her cough, but we still drove out toCPK at Hollywood and Highlands on Friday for Charity's (Sar's old apt. mate) birthday. Ordered BBQ Chicken Salad and Carne asada pizza.
Reminder to self: Don't ever get the Carne asada pizza and only order half size for the salad.
Went back to Sar's house and watched "A Lot Like Love" starring Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet. Cute movie... glad i didn't pay to see it in the movies, but worth the rental.
Saturday was Chinese New Year. Stuck at home. That's it.
Sunday was lunch at my Aunt's house. Met up with Sar and had Japanese food at Shinano, then Rite-Aid for Black Cherry ice cream.
