I thought I've given up on blogging, but I was wrong. So for all you blogreaders who find people's life interesting, you're out of luck! Because my life is as dull as a word that rhymes with "dull". Since the summer, emotionally, life has been moving smoothly with a couple of big detours within.. I think my perceptive of life changed around the new year when I solemnly made it a resolution to have a positive perceptive on life. Although, I was in the process of transitioning, I still had a feeling of loneliness and it was such a drag.. The preception of not having anything sucks.. Until I found a group of good friends.. They had surely made my life a bit more interesting.. I don't really know how to continue this blog because there is a bit of me that don't want to give too much exposure of thoughts.. oh well, later days.

Martial Arts movies are so COOL!

Today, I woke up around 1 PM because I'd a very long conversation with Jessica Ly on the phone, she kept me up till 4 AM! I had no plans today, so I'd decided to watch a movie and it so happens that my dad owned a Bruce Lee, one of the most greatest and influential martial art figure of the 20th century, movie! It was called "Fists Of Fury" which was made back in 1972! HUH?! That's pretty damn old. Here's a quick summary of the story from Yahoo! Movies, "A young martial arts expert makes a solemn vow to refrain from using his "Fists of Fury," and takes a job in an ice factory. When he discovers that the company is a front for a drug smuggling operation, he is forced to break his vow." I liked the movie because it was so corny and pretty fascinating to see Bruce Lee in action! I liked it most when he grunts or does his little war cry! Like the "WAATAA" (as Jennifer Dao said). After the movie, I did a little research on Wikipedia.com and just read about Bruce Lee. Yeah, I tend to read about the person after I watch documentaries but in this case, the movie was not a documentary but I didn't care. So that was basically my day, ADIOS!

MATERIAL ARTS ROCKS!

What a unique poster!

I like this picture..

This morning was quite pain because I woke up at 6 and every hour after i just kept of waking up. Around 9:00 AM, I got up and started getting ready for orientation and I burned myself doing "yeah". Then at 10:00 AM, Fred picked me up and we were off to school for orientation. As we arrived and walked to the gym, we ran into Treng and damn.. did she boss us around! We were assigned to the small gym to work the ASB/Yearbook and it was quite alright. I was working with Ian and Katen at the tables and damn did we'd fun because we'd found ways to entertain ourselves by being jerks! After the sophomore's orientation, Tracy, Melanie, Fred, Ian and I drove to JambaJuice and got some drinks as a treat, I guess. I got this Aloha Pineapple crap and it was surely crap! DON'T BUY IT! Then we headed back to school and just hung out for two hours and they were quite fun! =D The day continued tiring and that was basically it.

Today was pretty dull. Around 7:00pm, I went to see a soccer game with my cousin. It was a contest between the Deportivo Alavés @ San Jose Earthquakes, it was a pretty brutal match they'd going. It was interesting because a bench clearing brawl broke out right infront of us! hahah.. yeah!!!! The match ended in a 1-1 draw and that was my day.

This is my first ever big prize, Marvin The Martian, that I'd won from CircusCircus! I feel kind of proud in a way.. Well, here it is!..

My precious! =D

eh.. I got bored.

vacations aren't always fun.

*This post was inspired by the one and only PHILIP NGUYEN! okay.. So it wasn't really inspired by Philip but whatever.*

Last friday, I went on a family vacation with my family, of course, and two other things called "Tiffany & Amy". The roadtrip was quite unbearable since my parents were listening to their vietnamese music! Luckily, Tiffany had broughten her ipod (with a limited selection of songs). We first headed to Los Angeles where we stayed at the Hilton Hotel in Irvine/Orange County. When I first got their, I'd decided to call my friend, Julia, to see if she would like to do something since I was close by and probably won't be back in years. She said she was busy so whatever, nobody wants to spend some quality time with me, sadly. During our stay in LA, we went to Universal Studios. Universal Studios wasn't that great but it was entertaining with all it's shows, rides, etc. After taking a film class at EVC, I was very eagered to go on the studios tour and see all the cool sets and while we were there, we saw the set of War of the Worlds it was pretty nice. The next day, we were on our way to Las Vegas where I did a lot of shopping and just hung out with my good friend, Steven. In Vegas, I went to CircusCircus for 45 minutes and won three big prizes("Marvin The Martian") and a couple small prizes playing the horse game, where you roll the red ball into the holes. I only spent $16 dollars so I felt as if I accomplished something great! but actually, it was kind of pathetic. Well, that's all that actually happened on this wonderful trip. Ta Ta.

Kicked Amy's ass in Bust-A-Move.

I was forced into the back trunk of the car!

8 days later... Sorry that it too me so long to blog, I wasn't really in the mood to jot down whatever happened since July 1st. On the 2nd and 3rd, my cousins came down from Sacramento to pay a visit. I haven't seen them in a while, so I was glad they'd paid a visit. July 3rd, when my cousins departed my house to go back home, my other cousins picked to go to the theaters. Phi & I watched "War Of The Worlds", directed by Steven Spielberg, and the others watched Batman Begins. I enjoyed the movie but it ended so abruptly, which made it disappointing.. July 4th, our Independence day, I attended a little get together at the Ranch's Bridge. Cristal, Antoine & I made chicken wings are my house which took forever, but it was worth it! I dont' remember what I did on the 5th but on the 6th, I went to the movies with Sarah, Aldin, Philip & his cousins to watch Batman Begins. It was unbelievable.. Best movie I've seen all year. The 8th was a fantastic day, Thanks to Jennifer Phu Le! I went to Happy Hollow with Cindy, who is super cool, around 10:30 then met up with Phi, Mimi, Jennifer, Kathie, Kevin & Jenny. After Happy Hollow, we'd split up to go watch Fantastic 4. I went with Phi, Mimi, Jon & their friend Linda, who got us free tickets! THANKS!. Today, we'd our first carwash today and it was pretty successful. That's basically it in the life of Andrew.. LAME!!

Jessica Alba is HOT!

I liked this movie for some damn reason..

First "Noir" film I've ever seen, and it Wasn't that bad

Today, I woke up from a very strange dream, which is a little too personal to explain, and it basically shaped my day. So it was 12Pm and I had no plans, which was pretty lame but whatever. I watched the "Last Samurai" Starring Tom Cruise (who is also starring in the latest movie "War Of The Worlds"), Ken Watanabe (Batman Begin), and many more. I liked the ending, even though I've seen it before but still, very intense and dramatic. I loved the emperor in this movie! HAHAHA, he sounded like a queer, no offense. Jenny took me to the library to drop off a book and that was basically my day, except this part of the day where I'm sitting here blogging on my computer. Adios amigos.

Whoa.. Today I feel lifeless, maybe it's because I slept late last night. Okay, this isn't the first time I slept late for the last two months. I get to bed around 2-3am and 1am, if I get lucky. Jennifer picked me up late today because she was watching 'Wimbledon'! Haha, I didn't know she liked tennis, maybe I should ask her to go play with me sometimes. As we were heading to school, we were listening to the Backstreet Boys.. I found it funny in a way, because I believe the news media told me they've retired, Damn liars! I'm a N'Sync fan back then in the days when I still lived next door to Randy & Carolyn. Carolyn was the one forcing me to listen to N'Sync and made me a fanatic in a way, it was pretty sad. Man, I've missed living right next door to former neighbor, many childhood memories that shall remain untold! Maybe till we've kids of our own, then we'll tell the untold stories to keep them entertained. I don't think I've made any sense, but whatever.. I don't care. Well, I'm at school right now listening to some music and surfing the web to kill time. Alright, I've ran out of things to blog so... I'LL BE BACK!

4:02Pm
Wow.. The weather is extremely hot! I believe it's going to be in the high 80's, OH WELL! Class was pretty decent, we watched an hour long show on latinos in the movie industry and found it kind of boring, not to be offensive but it didn't keep me focused on their whole issues.. After the show, we talked about the "Rating System" held by the MPAA and how it works and what not. That's basically it.. and tomorrow I'm suppose to go watch "War of the Worlds" and I don't have a ride. I wanted to ask someone but eh.. she walked out the door as if she was Speedy Gonzales. Maybe next time when I've built up the courage to be a man.

Hello, I'm blogging this entry at EVC, in their library, where I'm waiting for the time to turn 12:30pm, so I can go to class. These computer are pretty unique, they're called 'Acma', never heard of this brand in my entire life, that's why I guess I'm not(thanks Philip) technologically updated, as in with the new technology being produced nowdays. I've believe many people has struggle through the life dealing with problems like these, because they can't keep themselves updated with new inventions that can benefit from. I remember not knowing how to use a DVD player when I was about 9 years old, and believe me it was quite an experience. Before I got to the library to use this fascinating computer, I was in the cafeteria eating some curly fries. I would've ate breakfast at home, but I'd woke up late and I didn't want to keep Jennifer Dao waiting. It was kind of boring because I sat there alone, until Simrunn and Robert came. I didn't really talk to Robert because of variety reasons, but Simrunn is an odd one. He'd took the class that I'm taking right now, which is "Intro. to film". He told me it was pretty easy and I believe him because we don't have that many homework, but we've important documents we need to write. Today, he told us that we'll be learning about Steven Spielberg and his style of directing. To be honest, I'm not a big fan of Spielberg. I don't really like those extraterrestrial theory, but I do believe that we're not alone. I guess I'm being a hypocrite but I believe that we'll never see or even be invaded by aliens. Now it's 11:40AM and I'll finish this blog later tonight.

This is him when he was on the set of "Catch Me If You Can". Doesn't he look so cool.

WELL! Class went by smoothly till about 2:10, which I've explained above. We'd watched another "Charlie Chaplin" Movie and it was called, "The Circus". I thought the movie was kind of cute, when Charlie met that one lady and has fallen for her, which she in love with someone else and broken poor little Charlie. Okay, I'm feeling kind of lazy right now so I guess i'll blog more later.

Today sucks, period. I just slept the whole day away and now I'm blogging the final portion of today's blog. Eh.. I feel like crap right now so.. thats it for today.

[Music: Bloc Party - Banquet]

Eh.. I wanted to try something new and this happens to be it. I've just uploaded many new pictures on to myspace, which i took from a couple of friend's yahoo albums that includes Gino & Kristy. Today, I feel like a craphole. I don't know why, but i just do and it sucks! Maybe I'm just a little disappoint at a fact that i can't have what i want, and that sucks. I do believe that I've it hard, I don't care how you guys tell me i've got it good because I don't feel that fortunate. Oh well, life is tough. As i was saying, today I went to my film class at evc which starts at 12:30 and ends at 3:15. We took a test and to be quite honest, that test was stupid. It's just like the written part of the driving test, commom sense basically. I got a B- after 10 minutes of testing, which is pretty pathetic. After the test, we watched a movie called "The Kid" a slapstick comedy written and started by the Charlie Chaplin, the greatest actor and director of all time. It was a great movie, and I believe that it's by far the best "Chaplin" movie I've seen yet. After class I've decided to walk home because of three great reasons: 1. Jennifer was busy 2. I don't have change to use a local payphone 3. I don't have a cellur phone. The humidity was unbelievable, it was extremely hot on my journey home from school. But as I was walking, I starting thinking about things that made my day even worst. After 30 minutes of walking, I'd hopped a wall to my backyard and stayed home ever since. I wanted to attend the 6:00pm-9:00pm session for intro. to film to see a couple of my good buddies, but at this stage, I've gotten too lazy to walk to evc. Hopefully the days will get brighter, the sky will turn light blue, and some eyecandy clouds appear because that'll be one hell of a sight to view.

First movie I'd seen in film class and it was pretty darn good. The movie is about a kid, "C", growing up in a rough neighborhood and became under the influence of the mafia and his father warned "C" about Sunny and the boys, but "C" wouldn't listen and would be strap in for quite a ride.

I just watched this movie today in class and it was quite amazing. I can't believe Chaplin made this movie all by himself, well of course he'd a little help from studios, but hell! HE'S A GENIUS! This slapstick comedy is worth watching after 80 years of its release date. OH YEAH! you see that kid there? Our instructor told us that when he grows up, he'll play the role of Uncle Fester on the Adam's Family.. pretty sad but funny!

I've found this cool picture of me hitting a golf ball and it was taken by Cindy a while back on like, May 24, 2005. The picture was just perfect.. GOODJOB CINDY!

Tracy, Cindy and Victoria...GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!
