HOLIDAY HANGOUT!

If you’re from LA, more then likely you know me from my nightlife career.  I’ve actually promoted clubs before I even ever stepped foot into a club.  I’ve been doing it for quite some time.  The one thing I do enjoy most is throwing a party where its more about the fam.  The one event that I get to do that at is usually my birthday.  Its a time where all my friends can come together and have a kickass time.  

So this holiday season I wanted to do something similar.  A night out where it wasn’t about dressing up and being all clubby.  It was more about coming out and grabbing a drink w/ a friend at a bar.  

So last minute we got our good friends at 333LIVE to let us use their newly renovated bar/lounge to host our company party.  (JETSET; the nightlife company i started earlier this year).  

We invited people that we’ve worked with before, friends that have supported us, and did this lowkey holiday company party.  

(Left) We kicked off the night w/ an amazing performance from a 5 piece band : Ensemble Memo. 
(Right) Right after Kevin Lien, got on and played some tunes for us on his guitar


Then our good buddy Verseatile got the crowd to rock out w/ his new single REBOUND featuring another good friend TRAPHIK aka Timothy de la ghetto.



Anden the night began….

HONG KONG TRIP '11

I recently traveled out to Hong Kong.  It was my first time, and man what a trip it was.  This year has been full of trips, I’ve been blessed to ride on a lot of planes & see a lot of random things.  I didn’t realize this till I found out I was going though was that Hong Kong was my #1 destination that I wanted to go to of all time.  Once Carl told me that we were going to make a trip out to Hong Kong I was pumped up like crazy.  

Now lets see…So really early on when I was younger, whatever type of TV my parents would watch…It was pretty much what I watched.  They were really really heavy on Stephen Chow movies, and the TVB dramas…so I’ve always been sort of a fan of HONG KONG.  I grew up on the cinema, and cantonese to me always felt very comfortable even though its not the language my family speaks at home.   

 There was so much that I wanted to do when I got there.  I literally barely slept.  Going there and going back…i pretty much slept on the plane the whole time, and I rarely do that.  


Man…Hong Kong Breakfast & DimSum.  I loved the food.

Wasn’t going to write too much about the trip.  I came out with JV & Toestah.  They both were going to do a little guest appearance for JIN THE MC’s BIG HONG KONG CONCERT.  It was amazing to see the reception of Jin out there.  

A couple observations about Hong Kong : 
1)  The walking pace in Hong Kong is ridiculous.
2)  People’s fashion game is crazy!  Everyone is willing to dress a lot crazier out there.
3)  Shopping is NONSTOP, although I was told that its mostly mainlanders coming into Hong Kong to shop…its still pretty crazy that there are so many people shopping.
4)  Hong Kong Breakfast is the shit! 
5)  Theres a lot of white people running around LKF.
6)  MTR in HK is very efficient.

I didn’t take much pictures because I was running around with a camcorder most of the time, so you’ll see some interesting video footage that I’ll post up later!

Stay tuned….

17? I wouldn't mind some suggestions to add to my playlist--and to see what kind of music you listen to!

tumbler question game

rainyday! hi :)

okay 17 is last awkward situation i was in.

hahaha this awkward situation is too fresh in my mind right now.  I don’t want to embarass anyone…but 2 guys…hollering at one girl…i was in the same room as them….and dudes were spitting corny lines.  I wanted to leave lol.

as for music playlist…

check out what im listening to right now…im in my hip hop mood right now which is like (70 percent of the time) so i’m bumping a lot of TYGA, his new mixtape is really good…you should download it (Bitch, I’m the shit).   I really like the Foster the People album.  I actually went out and bought it.  Its a sick album for a non-hiphop CD.  

and i’m still bumping that drake cd pretty heavy!  His new music video is dope!

Numbers 3 and 30 my good sir.

Yo wassup dude! Thanks for following!

[ Tumblr question Game ]

3)  A secret you haven’t told many people
Its not really a secret, but its like a random fact that a lot of my friends don’t know about now.  When I was younger I wanted to be a lawyer.  I liked debating.  I competed in mock trial when I was younger and actually won a award as a prosecutor when I was in 8th for the county of los angeles. lol.  I decided I didnt want to do that anymore because I saw the CLIENT (john grisham novel turned movie) and the lawyer got killed.  Nix on that idea.

30)  Answered it last time! 

Dec 12, 2011
18 and 24 (:

Hey Raylene!

[ TUMBLR QUESTION GAME ]

18)  Answered already!

24) Opinion on cheating
Cheating is bad.  It shouldn’t be done.  It happens though.  Everybody goes through it.  I firmly believe in negative & positive energies.  If you do bad stuff….you’ll always have negative energies…vice versa.  Its really about what type of person you are and if you respect yourself enough to cheat or not cheat.  And when you do, I think its really about if you understanding why you did what you did.  Theres always a lesson to be learned!

Hi! Hello!

[TUMBLR QUESTION GAME] 

7)  What last made you laugh until you cried.
You know, I laugh a lot.  Lol I think thats most of my workout lol.  I’m surrounded by a lot of funny people and its not that hard for me to laugh.  But the time that I remember laughing the hardest was when I was 21 and I was in Las Vegas with my friends Ryan Huang & Frank Ngo.  We had just pulled a all nighter, ate some steaks, and was in total bastard mode walking to the MGM grand to play some roulette.  I really don’t remember what we were laughing about but I remember falling on the ground and it hurt really bad lol.

12)  How you met the person you fell hardest for.
You know I dont really remember how I met her. lol.  It was a while ago.

18) Already answered :]

[TUMBLR QUESTION GAME]

Whats up Kyle!

8) List of concerts you’ve been to.
Hahah Oh man…I’ve been wayyyy too many to really count tbh. I’ll list my most memorable ones, and the ones I had most fun at recently…  
Glow in the Dark (Kanye, Lupe, Rihanna, N-e-R-D), Cali Christmas 2008 (T.I., Kanye, Busta Rhymes, LMFAO), Snoop Dogg, Jay-z Blue Print 3 Tour (J Cole), Michael Buble, NFL Kick Off 2005 (Kanye, Maroon5, Rihanna) HardHalloween09 (Atrak, Deadmau5, BloodyBeetroots), WizKhalifa&BigSean, JCole, YelaWolf, Frank Ocean, EDC2010….theres so much more…I can’t even name.  I honestly didnt start attending concerts till i was like in my early twenties when I could start affording it, or I had some sort of hookup.  Recently the hookup gods have been good to me!!

 11)  Favorite song
My favorite songs right now are is a song from Joseph called Rollercoaster Love, and Toestah’s FCKYOUPAYME.   Lol i know its kind of cheating but, ehhh thats the stuff i’ve been bumping lately in the car.

18) Quote I live by 
If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down but the staying down.

22)  Lyrics to your favorite song
I don’t really have a favorite song, but my favorite lyric for a song right now is “We live in a generation of not being in love”.  I like that a lot strangely hahaaha… 

-Cpain.

2 & 17~

[TUMBLR QUESTION GAME]

Hey!! thanks for following!

2) DRUNKEN STORY TIME…GO
Hm.  I honestly rarely get blacked out or anything like that.  I’m not really a big drinker.  (I’m a cheap date)  I actually am not that big of a drinking fan to be honest.  I think the craziest time might have been when I had my 24th birthday party at MOOD nightclub in Hollywood, where I got kicked out of my own birthday party at 1230?  Lol.  I was doing the stanky leg and almost got caked.  Almost.

17) Last Awkward Situation you were in.
I was hanging with a girl, and 2 other dudes.  The 2 dudes were nonstop trying to holler at her, and made things very awkward.  It was honestly pretty amusing on my end.  Probably more awkward for the girl, since he wasn’t having it.  Awkward turtles. 

Dec 7, 2011
Hmmm can we ask you more than one? I'd love to hear 13 and 14. (16 if you're in the mood. =P)

[TUMBLR QUESTION GAME]

13) Favorite Memory of the past summer
You know its easily got to be my DREAMCHASERS event that I put together.  It was easily one of the coolest things I’ve ever done.   Putting together a charity concert for my High School Choir in the city where I grew up from.  Raising 7,000 to donate to the choir.  I got to bring some of the AMAZING talented people that I work with and proud to call my friends to come out and show my city what they’re all about.  The responses from the kids and how inspired they were was just dope! LOVEMYCITY! #SGV

14) Craziest thing you’ve ever done
I honestly can’t think of anything CRAZY that i’ve done…which makes me feel like i need to go out and be more adventurous lol.  I’ve jumped from a roof to another roof once…and it was like 3-4 stories up. LOL that was kinda freaky.  

16) Turn ons
-  Girls that are passionate about music.  They can carry a conversation about music.  
-  Nice butt :)
-  Nice Hands (super weird i know, but i like hands)
-  Girls that are fashion fwd. 

(I had an anonymous ask me 2 of those questions…but I didn’t want to answer any anonymous questions soooo login & askaway !!)
