Weekend Chronicles 6/20 – JSAKA
Last weekend. Started off hectic but ended pretty nice. Friday I received a call from Scottie around 3pm saying that Cabana had been closed by the city for the night due to some maintenance issues so we had to move the party quick style. “Fockkkkkkk”, i’m thinking to myself. Was hot as hell that day and I knew a balmy Friday night would have led to a PACKED Cabana Club that night. But that was not meant to be i guess. Had to head back to my apt to start working the phones and email to get the word out of the change of venue. Through the power of Facebook, Myspace, texts, calls, and having Q physically stand at Cabana with a sign telling people to go to Element Hollywood (http://www.elementhollywood.com), we pulled off the last minute save. So let me tell you about Element. Well first off props and thanks to Mindsex Entertainment for letting us hop on board with them last minute. Mighty grateful for their hospitality. Party was ROCKIN. 1,100+ at a club that probably could fit 700 comfortably. Only bad thing was that it was friggin HOT in the club. Like ASIA summertime hot AND humid. I felt like i was in that Nelly “Hot in Here” video except for everybody being Asian and Nelly not being there. hahahaha. Sweat drippin down all over the body. =) SEXY! Even the patio was hot (not to mention the cloud of cigarette smoke hanging over it) So yeah….there was no real relief from the heat.
Finally got to see Steph (aka Mean Face) and Michelle (aka Sloth). Hadn’t seen both for quite a long time so was good to catch up. The surprise of the night was seeing Steph actually SMILING in all of our pictures. WOW. hahaha.
Also ran into Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne from Dumb and Dumber.
Actually their real names are Steven (from GO Productions) and Mickey (from Whisper Entertainment). These two bozos crack me up especially when they are together creating havoc. Make sure to say wassup to them next time you see em out and about. They will surely entertain you (especially if you are hotties)
We also saw RANDY (from Kiramas) for the first time in awhile after his leg surgery.
Now THAT Is dedication my friends. Randy gets my nod for 2008 Hard Core Clubber of the Year.
While walking to the car after the club, we ran into this chick with the “BOOTS WITH THE FURRRR” so being the camera slut that i am, i just had to snap a pic with her.
Headed out to WON KOK in Downtown for some late night grub with the boys (i’ll write a review on won kok someday) and didn’t get to sleep till around 5am. I REALLY wanted to go swimming at Chris’ pad after eating but was too damn tired.
Woke up around noon on Saturday and it was HOT. Immediately started calling around to see who was down to hit up Manhattan Beach but everyone was being lazy asses so had to switch to plan B: POOL PARTY! I call up Wej Scott (he’s the only one with a pool around here) and tell him that I’m heading over to his pad in Brentwood with Warren. Ended up picking up Mike Chu on the way. So we’re lounging at the pool and lo and behold, Scottie and Andy show up. ”Great”, i think to myself….”6 DUDES”…”YAY!”. Right then Steve calls me and tells me he’s coming by and he brings along PJ and before you know it, you have an Express order of Asian MAN SOUP. hahahhaa.
And before you ask….YES, it is as geigh as it looks…..especially when you have two guys doing stuff like this:
Hahahaha. But yah, regardless it was fun just talking shiet and messing around in the water. I was just happy to be out of the heat. Things got lively once Steve and PJ brought a 24 pack of Bud Light. All the other residents of the complex lounging at the pool with us started drinking the Bud as well and I ended up feeling like i was in one of those cheesy beer commercials.
So anyway, we stayed at the pool till around 6 and then went home to chill for a bit. PJ, Steve, Warren, and I decided to do dinner at Tahoe Galbi (http://www.yelp.com/biz/tahoe-bbq-los-angeles) in Ktown for some all you can eat MEATS.
Got home around 10:30 and i was pretty full and TIRED so decided to just stay in and chill. Yes i know….the HORROR of staying in on a Saturday night (especially for me). Disney’s Pearl Harbor has been sitting on my DVD shelf for a good 5 years so I finally decided to watch it.
Hmmmm. Decent movie. Here’s my mini review on Pearl Harbor: I like the action (Bruckheimer and Bay); Kate Beckinsale is a hottie; Josh Hartnett is F*CKED UP for boning his BEST FRIEND’S chick (you should be shot for doing shit like that); Cuba Gooding is funny as the deprived black man; and lastly i thought the image of Hawaii was grossly misrepresented. Hawaii was like 80% Japanese American yet you had the planes flying over baseball games with all white kids and a white woman doing her laundry? hahahaha. I thought that was hilarious. I guess it WOULD be kinda weird if it showed the Japanese Americans with the Japanese planes flying overhead to attack white people. Yah anyway, I enjoyed the movie.
Sunday Cyn and I decided to hit up LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art). Well first we hit up Nyala restaurant for some Ethiopian food (my first time) but i’ll write a review of that restaurant on another post (since this one is getting so friggin long anyway). So yah, on to the musuem. It was my first time there. I’m actually kinda bummed that I hadn’t gone sooner cuz it was pretty cool. They have this temporary exhibit on 17th century Japanese art (http://www.lacma.org) so that was really interesting for me. I learned that Japanese artists back then REALLY liked cranes, tigers, birds, elephants, and cocks. That’s roosters for all you sickos. hahahaha. They had some other cool stuff there too. I think after 5:00pm it’s basically “pay what you want” for all you cheapasses out there so you can save on admission fees.
Here’s me posing in a forest of lamp posts. Cool eh? =)
It was a nice way to wind down the weekend. Looking forward to this weekend. I hope it’s HOT!
