Dear Mama

Mother's day started off on the wrong foot when my brother showed up late. Reservations for brunch was at 10:30 and we left the house at 10:30, making me not the nicest person that day. I even snapped at my mom a little bit...which is the ultimate "don't" on mother's day right? Yeah, I felt horrible...but I just brushed it all aside on the ride to Berkeley and during brunch, we all enjoyed ourselves.
Brunch was at His Lordships, and here was our view:


It's hard to see, but the Golden Gate Bridge was in sight from here.




Grandma and the grandkids.



Sister and Kira



Mom and I got my sister the Aldo Muane that she put on right away.



I am definitely ringing in Spring with this ensemble.



Oh so delicious food.




All of us



Siblings



Me & the Mothers.


My sister and I chipped in to get my mom this:

In honor of the Playoffs

Zach took pictures of my Jordan collection because he's pretty proud of what I've accumulated so far.Here it is:

The infamous 11/12 package. Waited in line during the wee hours of the morning...and Zach wasn't able to get his. He's living vicariously through me when I wear these.



Jordan 1's. X-mas present from Zach

X-mas present #2 from Zach. Another pair of 1's


My first pair of 1's. The gold sold me.

Then I fell in love with the silver too.


Found these 3's on Ebay for dirt cheap. Love these though.


23's


Zach got these 11's for me...because they were "cheap." It matches my Royal Blue Warriors jersey though.


Got these in high school. These are very very old...and unfortunately, runs a 1/2 size too small now. Jordan 14 in baby blue.


My most treasured J's, but unfortunately, Zach got these in high school for me when my feet were a 1/2 a size smaller. Grr. I'm still looking to trade these. Anyone have these black and white patent leather Jordans in 4.5 or 5 Youth?
And my latest purchase were the Jordan 3/20 countdown package. I used the footlocker friends and family discount and got these for almost half off since it was already on sale.

I think I've bought Zach just as many Jordans as I own. And he's got himself a good collection not counting the ones I got him. What a girl right? ha.

When it was Hot

We had a little heat wave in the Bay last week, so Zach and I took Marley out for a day and one of our destination was the pier in Emeryville. We discovered a hidden Chinese restaurant at the end of a road that runs parallel to the bay bridge.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Celebrated Marty's birthday this past weekend at Temple in SF. I haven't been clubbing in the city in a long time...and I gotta say, it was quite fun and the club was pretty nice. Just happy to be with my girls that night though.






Me & the Birthday Girl

Football Head

Hey Arnold seasons 1-2 have been available on DVD and I haven't been aware. I guess it has been a little while since I bought my last DVD (Wall-E). Gotta save up some extra dough quick to get these though. This is by far one of the best cartoon TV shows on Nickelodeon, if not in general. I don't know if it was the first cartoon to have a Vietnamese character, but it was pretty cool seeing my people in cartoon form. Being able to re-watch shows like these makes me nostalgic. I love you Arnold..and you too Gerald.

I'm on ASIID

Just got back from a soulciety.org benefit and the show they put on was great. Supreme Soul and ASIID from ABDC headlined it, but unfortunately, not many people showed up. I thought for sure it would have been a pack show...so it was definitely disappointing to see so many open seats.
Despite feeling under the weather, I enjoyed myself. We met the crews afterwards and Ty was ecstatic.
I bought her an ASIID poster so she can get their autographs. She loves them. When she told them that she was a dancer too, one of the members told her that maybe they'll watch her one day on stage. They all were so sweet.



My sister really likes him. He's deaf, but definitely has better rhythm than most people who can hear.




Craziness! The dude is flippin over this guy. And the guy doing the back bend only has one leg and he dances like a mother.....

gold on black

Just received the virgie aldo boots today. The distress leather, zippers, and ankle length are just right. They are a little spacious so I'm going to have to wear some thick socks with them.


I also went to H&M this weekend and picked up some black wedges with gold lace holes.
I'll have to post pictures next time cuz my camera ran out of battery.
