Christmas is Here!!!!!!

Wow, I received a lot of cool stuff this year from everyone. Got a lot of golf clothes from D, G, & K! I look like a golf GOD!!! D also got me Banana Republic clothes as well. She also got me a momentus swing trainer, a 9' x 3' putting mat, and PSP games. What a great wifey!!!! D got me a 155 pc. Craftsman tool set. I put it together once I woke up. It's really nice. Now I can give him back his stuff.My parents got me and D a huge atomic clock for our family room. What a great Christmas!!!

G brought K to the airport this morning. I hope she has fun in Hawaii. After G dropped her off, he came back to my place. We then decided to have the first ever DB Invitational Golf Tourney!!!!! Here's some pics:





It was pretty stressing. G had me for the first 2 rounds. But then I came back in the 3rd round and won. What a great competitor G was!!! Always putting pressure on me! It was fun. I can now say that I won a tournament. I also pocketed $5!!!!!!!!! Booyah!!!!!!!!

Christmas is almost here!!!!

Well, Christmas is almost here! One event that signifies this is our annual Christmas get-together. It was fun!!! Thanks G & K for setting it up for us. Once D & I got there we were welcomed with delicious appetizers or "hors devours". Then once dinner started we all were assigned seats at their "Godfather" dinner table. The food was great!!! After that, we traded gifts from our secret Santa. I had R and he had me!!! We both got each other PSP games!!! I got Socom: Fire Team Bravo. Best game out there (that I've played) for FPS. Actually, maybe it's the only one out there. Once that was finished, we played Cranium Turbo Ed. D, J, and I got beat like step children!!! R, S, & R came from behind to thwart G, K, & D and take the victory.





As for j-dramas, I just finished Yamato Nadeshiko (Perfect Woman). I thought it was pretty good. Probably an 8 out 10. I think I'm going to take a break from j-dramas and start watching LOST. G let me borrow it and he highly recommends it. So I'll be doing that for the next few days.

Finally Over!!!!!!!!!

Oh man. I just took my nutrition final today. Man, I can't believe that I finally finished ALL my pre-requisites for school. I'm so burned from school and work. But it's the holidays and I'm going to party it up. This weekend is G & K's Christmas party. I can't wait! I get to see and hang out with everyone again. It's been a while. We'll be having great food, a gift exchange, and games (maybe poker)! If it's poker, I'll definitely school the guys!!!!!!! I'm going to relax now and catch up on some much needed rest and relaxation (maybe watch a couple of j-dramas).

Busy Busy

Well, I've been really busy the past few weeks. Had my dad's retirement party a couple of weeks ago. It was pretty fun. I got drunk as usual (got to take advantage of the open bar). I also got fitted for a new set of clubs. D, G, and K got me a gift cert. to Golfsmith. I got a set of Lynx H3 irons (3-5 are hybrids and 6-sw are cavity back irons). I've got to say that Dublin's Golfsmith salespeople are a hell of a lot better than Fremont's Golfsmith. The guys at Dublin GS were very helpful, explaining everything and also testing me for custom clubs. Fremont's GS didn't help me one bit with clubs. Oh well, they suck. I've also been trying to fix my car. I installed my new hoses and thermostat. So, I thought everything was cool. I took the M3 out for a drive and wouldn't you know it, I got a big puddle of blue/green coolant under my car. So J and I had to take the air box, plenum and alternator off again and torque all the clamps down to make sure the hoses wouldn't leak again. After putting the hoses back, I had a little problem with my alternator. Took my alternator into Autozone to get it tested. Everything was ok. So we cleaned all the connections and popped everything back in. Took the car out and no leaks or dummy lights coming on. So I guess everything is prepped and ready for this weekend. I'm going to Marina Airport and running the M3 in a car control clinic. I'm really excited. I want to find the limits of my car and myself as a driver. Hopefully I can have someone take pics of me at the clinic while I'm driving. So we'll see.

Congrats Honey!!!

My wife just bought a 2001 BMW 525i. It's really nice. Here are some pics.

Relaxing Day

Well, my big bro got moved into his new place today. He didn't have that much stuff, so it was pretty easy. After we took everything out of the u-haul, the fellas and I had decided to have a little b-day celebration for our buddy who turned 34 last week. So the guys went out and bought a bbq grill, hot dogs, and 4 huge slabs of pork ribs. Oh, I can't forget about the Fat Tire beer. So, we had a great time hanging out with family and friends. Man, I love weekends like this!!!!

Need to start putting things together.

Well, I finally got my M3 floor mats. I had won them on ebay. So I paid for them and no response from the seller. I was getting kinda scared. I sent a couple emails and finally they email me back. They said they didn't have them in stock. I was pretty pissed that they put an item up for bid and when I had finally won it, they said they didn't have it. They told me that it'd be on the truck coming the next day and they'd email me when they send it out. I wait 3 days and still no email. So here we go again. I start bombarding them with emails. Finally they said that it didn't come in and they would be happy to refund my money. I said no b/c I got it for such a good price at $88 (orig. $115). So the next day they said they were coming in the next few days. But the best part of it is that they refunded me $44 for my troubles. So I got these $115 M3 floor mats for $44. Here's a pic of them:

















Some other stuff I need to do:

Paint my calipers black with G2 caliper paint. Also Daph bought me Evo brake rotors and Hawk HPS brake pads for my birthday (she's so sweet). Can't wait to get those in.





















Install my Samco silicone hoses.

Wheel Craze

Well, all this talk about everyone fixing up their cars made me think. I love my wheels but I was thinking maybe it's time for something new. I was thinking about getting 17x8 AC Schnitzer Type 1 3pc. wheels. But I don't think I'll get em. I really like my 17x8.5 BBS RS 3pc. wheels. Here's some pics.

I hate writing papers!!!!

Well, today was spent writing my nutrition paper. It sucks!!!! But, I got to hang out with my wife here and there today. That's always fun! Also, had dinner with my sister. She's fun to hang out with too. But tomorrow is Monday and the start of a new week. Oh well.

My First Blog

Well, this is my first post!!! Daph, Dom, John, Ray, and I went to BMW of Mountain View to look at a 1997 M3 vert. Saw it and the thing looked like crap. So we decided to take a look at the Mini. Once Daph sat in it, I think she fell in love. The sales person said that we have to make an appointment to take a test drive. Then we'd have to order it. It would take 3 months to come in. We'd probably be at home with a red mini w/ sport package and paddle shifters if he'd let us buy it off the lot. So, I think Daph might consider waiting 3 months for it. We'll see.
