HOLLERRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Just got home from the studio. Recorded my demo and now I’m ready to make my grand entrance as a female rapper. More on that later. Sleep time…

I’m digging through my old mp3 collection as I update this so excuse me as I randomly blurt out lyrics that once meant so much to me.

Hi emo Tiff from high school/college!

This poison’s my intoxication, I broke a needle off in my skin. Pick the scabs and pick the bleeding, and assume it was all in vain.
IF YOU FEEL LIKE DYING, YOU MIGHT WANNA SINGGGGGGGGGGGG. RAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRR.
ILL EAT YOUR BABIES FOR BREAKFAST RAWR RAWR RAWR RAWR.

Okay, now that I’ve gotten all that out of my system…onto my update.

This past weekend was the long awaited league game for the boys vs Johnny’s team. Arcadia vs Arcadia.

Here are the pictures. It was a pretty close game. Sorry guys :(

Hi Ogre.

This is Ogre. He is cute and fat. Ogre likes to eat carrots and apples. He also likes to poo alot. On weekends, he enjoys long strolls in his plastic ball. However, he doesn’t like accidentally running so fast that he rolls down the stairs in his plastic ball. By day, he is a sleeper. By night, Ogre plans to escape from his cage and take over the world.

This past weekend, my sister went to Sprinkles in Newport to pick up some cupcakes for the fam fam…including Mochi! They have the cutest little doggy cupcakes that they sell for $2.50 a piece. The cupcakes are topped with frosting and sesame seed sprinkles in different colors. Mochi was more than excited to devour the cupcake. She pretty much gobbled it up like the little piggy she is. OM NOM NOM NOM NOM.

I also took her to get groomed. Mmm she smells so good now, I just want to snoogle with her all day long. Her ears are cleaned and her nails are cut too! Mochi almost never lets me cut her nails. EVER. She’ll use her nose to nudge the hand that’s holding the clippers away from her paws. Smart kid!

Now, it’s time to meet Aedan. He’s almost a year old mini dachsund mix. He has cute little short legs but that doesn’t hinder him from being extremely energetic and playful. He also really likes to lick toes. I’m not quite sure why, but he does.

Now, it’s time for some Mochi snoogle time. I’m trying to sleep a little earlier now so I can adjust my schedule to get to work a bit earlier. That way, I can leave a bit earlier, giving me more time in the evening to do what I want…especially now that I’ve started some photog classes over in Covina! Tomorrow will be Photoshop class. Saturday, Emily and I hope to attend the printing seminar so we can start utilizing the school’s most state of the art printers. HEHE we are going to go print crazy and make prints of everything. Yes, even prints of ourselves making prints.

Hi again,

I have a couple of pictures that I forgot to include in my previous posts about my recent trip to San Francisco so I’ve decided to give them their own post! These are all from my Leica…I haven’t used it for almost half a year. But I have fallen in love with it again. Day 1 and 2 were strictly taken with my Leica. Oh how I’ve missed it. It’s so much more convenient than lugging an SLR with different lenses around all day, I’ll tell you that. I almost felt like my Leica was good enough to substitute my SLR with. Then I got stuck in low light situations. That’s when I realized that the Leica has limitations. But outdoors, it performs wonderfully. So without further ado…

Bright and early, we woke up to pack and make sure we’d check out by noon. We dropped our luggage off at the baggage check in area of our hotel and took the double decker buses to Fisherman’s Wharf. OH DUDE. I forgot to tell you guys about the story of how Alcatraz screwed us over. When we bought the Wharf Passes, the flyer said that for $71.25, it would include the Alcatraz tour and everything else in the basic package. Except when we got to Fisherman’s to redeem our tickets for everything, they told us because we chose Alcatraz, they would have to take away the Golden Gate Bridge Bay cruise. UMMMMMMM THEY NEVER WROTE THAT ANYWHERE ON THE FLYER. We were so furious we demanded to speak to the manager. OH! And this is our fault for booking so late but we had separate ferry times to go to Alcatraz because everything was sold out. I would have to go first at 1pm and wait for Will to get there at 1:30pm. So anyway, we tried to argue with the manager and he just kept saying he couldn’t do anything and that it was their fault blah blah blah blah. After arguing with him for about 20 minutes, he let us get on the same ferry to Alcatraz so we wouldn’t have to go separately alone and wait for one another on the island. UGHHHH. Okay, so here are the pictures from Alctraz. Warning, there are so many.

I’m not sure why, but I really liked all the surrounding fixtures and random things. I think I found them more interesting so I snapped a couple shots.

So a couple of inmates decided to dig a tunnel through their concrete walls with a spoon. Apparently, they succeeded and escaped through here. No one knows if they ever made it safe to land or what happened to them. How scary is that thought?? An Alcatraz prisoner could be lurking amongst us.

After Alcatraz, I only had one mission to accomplish before I left San Francisco.

Yup. Boudin’s sourdough bread bowl w/ clam chowder. SO GOOD. I also bought some bread to take home but it’s currently still sitting on the counter in the kitchen. I don’t think it’s edible anymore. It’s hard as a rock. If I threw it at Mochi, I think she’d have a concussion.

OKAY SO here is the world famous Bushman. We saw this guy on the 2nd day and laughed when he hid behind those fake leaves and jumepd out to scare people. On the 3rd day, Will didn’t want to be scared by him so he was on the look out but I think Bushman moved locations so we didn’t see him. 4th day, we completely forgot about him. And guess what? Right when we did that, he scared us. DAMN YOU BUSHMAN!!! This guy is so famous that if you Google him, you’ll discover that he has his own Wikipedia entry. Oh, and he also makes $60k a year doing this. I think I’m in the wrong profession. Santa Monica Pier, here I come!

So when we were done walking around Fisherman’s Wharf for the last time, we decided to ride the cable cars back to the hotel to pick up our luggage. So, we waited an HOUR to ride these things and we gave our passes to the conductor, he told us that he couldn’t take our cable car Wharfpasses. And he didn’t just tell us. He threatened us by saying how he would call the police on us so they could give us a $350 ticket for trying to use fake tickets. UM HELLOOOOOOOOOO. THEY WERE BOUGHT AS PART OF A PACKAGE. So we tried to argue with him but he wouldn’t take the tickets so we had to buy new ones from him. Honestly, I bet he just pocketed that cash because the ones we had were legit.

Cable cars are overrated. Not worth the hour wait in my opinion. Plus, we didn’t get a seat so we had to stand the entire time. It felt a bit claustrophic with all the people squished into there. We got back to Union Square and walked back to our hotel to pick up our luggage and we were off to take the BART to SFO. I think I was pretty exhausted so I fell asleep on Will but couldn’t really get a good rest because I wasn’t sure when we were going to get off. We pretty much got to the airport about 2 hours early and just sat at the terminal and rested. I took one last picture before leaving San Fran…and here it is. :)

Goodbye San Francisco, you showed us a good time. :)
