It’s November already? I thought it was just January!!
I can’t believe it’s November already! Wow.. time flies doesn’t it? Seems like it was only yesterday that it was.. well.. January! It’s been an eventful year by far.. but first things first - Happy Belated Halloween!! Hope everyone had fun this Halloween and more importantly - stayed safe. I went out with John, Janet, and Hoa to a Yelp.com party. Yup.. I think that was only the second time I had ever heard of Yelp to be honest with you. Most everyone at this small shindig were local community members of Yelp. Yelp’s an online community of folks who provide reviews of all sorts of things - from restaurants to places to events. It’s also a great way to network and socialize with others in your area - especially if you’re new to a particular city. The party event itself was here:

I’m still searching for the pictures that some of the photographers there took of us.. we looked hilarious folks! I’ll post up my pictures later tonight. Fun stuff… (you’ll also be able to find it on my facebook page later on).
It’s nearing the holiday season now which means it’s time to save up for Christmas gifts.. dang it.. more importantly, it’s time to save money for Black Friday! I think I do the majority of my shopping on Black Friday anyhow! I’m sure this year’s sales will be crazy.. but for the techno freaks out there - there’s no real must have product this season - no Xbox 360 console to wait in line for nor Sony PlayStation 3 console. Yes.. it’s going to be a bit boring if you ask me.
I’m still playing a little bit of volleyball here and there though I don’t really play in Westside anymore. I’m just not into the competitive side anymore.. I think I like the open gyms that I occasionally head over to. I actually go regularly to an open gym in Temple City nowadays. Sometimes you’ll see me over at FCBC at the beginning of the months too.
About the only thing I still enjoy at a somewhat competitive basis is softball but even that’s borderline. I suppose the athletic competitive side of me is starting to dwindle.
One activity I’m thinking about picking up is Karate since my brother is actively involved with that. I’ve been thinking I need something that teaches me discipline as well as an activity that keeps me in some semblance of shape. Heh… We’ll see.. there is an interesting place here in West LA that I’d like to check out. Anyone want to check it out too?
Finally, I’m still recovering from my sprained left ankle that I got from Saturday. Stupid me.. I was running a slightly modified route here in West LA and I wasn’t looking.. and then.. POP! (or was it more a crack?). My left foot rolled as a result of running over a crack on the sidewalk.. #@$%!$@!@
Alrighty.. that’s it for now. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. It’s November - start of the short journey to the end of the year!!!
