Winter Ends.
I have a week of relaxation and I’d like to kick it off by finally updating! Here is what runs through my head as of right now:

- People breathe life and move on to better places that await them.
- I finished off winter quarter strong and glad.
- I love signaling pathways.
- I miss my friends and can’t wait to...

Winter Break Pt. 2
Winter Break has officially come to an end so I thought it to be appropriate to update and recollect some memories in order to immortalize them.
Let’s start with Christmas!
Thanh and I celebrated Christmas together early since we couldn’t celebrate together on the eve or on the day of. Our family had their own shindigs going on both days so we decided to celebrate early! I cooked her...

Winter Break Pt. I
Grades are out today and after a tough quarter I have earned my rest. Life is GOOD people… very good :) People should PROBABLY be jealous. Here is what I’ve done thus far.
The first thing after finals was my mom’s show! As most of you know my mother is a singer and she had a show nearby and needed some help. I love my family.

Don't EVER Give In.
“Small children having temper tantrums sometimes attempt to manipulate parents by threatening to hold their breath until they die. However, the chemoreceptor reflexes make it impossible for children to carry out that threat. Extremely strong-willed children can continue holding their breath until they turn blue and pass out from hypoxia, but once they are unconscious, normal breathing...

Sorry guys! Life has been hectic. Lots of stress that will only continue to come, but honestly if you read my last post… people have it worse. I should be thankful for all that I have. I’m short on time so I can’t write what everything is, but here are some pictures that I’ve taken since the last time I posted. Enjoy!
Oh John…

I’ve just been so busy lately with life. I’m not a workaholic; I’d rather get away from all of this. I’ll update you soon, promise.

Summer 2010 Pt. 2
Well summer is over and I thought I should update! Quite photo intensive, so if you have slow internet… sorry! I’m sure I left out a bunch of things that I did… but there are just too many.
One of the most notable things that happened was that I turned 21! We went to Vegas and stayed at PH Westgate Towers in the corner suites again. Thanks for all of you that came out!

Summer 2010 Pt. 1
Summer school has finally come to an end and I’m about a full week into my short summer break. Today is my birthday and I feel very loved and cared for today. Soon I’ll be going to my friend’s restaurant, Citryst, where I will probably fall to the floor because I can’t hold my liquor. Before that happens… I want to share pictures of the first week of my summer.

Gary's Birthday @ Citryst.

I Couldn't Resist.
I said I’d be on vacation from posting pictures but.. I have cameras readily available and couldn’t help but shoot. It seems like my entire blog consists of Elle now, which is fine by me! But if you can’t deal with all of the baby pictures… you’re more than welcome to leave :P
I’ll play nice though. I’ve added an old picture from high school that I love.

Hiatus (Photos).
I’ll be taking a short break from taking pictures… since I don’t have a camera! Stay tuned- I’m getting a new camera body and lenses. :)

Viet took this picture, I added a little color.
OC Fair + Bonuses.
It was that time of year again… OC Fair. Every year I tell myself… ‘that wasn’t all that great, never again.’ BUT I always end up going. This year was fun though! We went on a friday with $1 food tastings as well as $1 rides. Freaking awesome. I won a little bear for my niece and ate a grip- including fried butter (which was extremely tasty).
BONUS: Kickball...

My Answer (reblog from FYMath)
My Answer
So I was thinking yesterday about how I’ve never even come close to having a girlfriend, and was beginning to approach the conclusion that the problem must reside in mine own self. I was on the verge of accepting this pessimistic conclusion, when I decided that rather than attempting to come to terms with this unsupported theory of self-defect, I would test it. And so I sat down in front...
Hiking at Monrovia + Ice Skating
My friends and I are trying to go hiking as much as possible. It really feels great to be outdoors instead of in front of books and a computer screen. This time we went to Monrovia Canyon Falls and it was… very easy compared to our last ‘extreme’ hike where we had made our own trails… but pleasing and relaxing nonetheless. When Nick and I decided to break the rules a little...
Thinh & Tien's Graduation Party.
Just know it was freakin fun. Freakin fortune telling, beerpong+bongs, delicious food, boxing, and a whole lot more. I’m tired so I’ll get to the pictures.

Jason's Grad BBQ + Skating + Jayda
Super tired and lazy to type so here are the cliffs:
- Jason had a BBQ for his graduation, super funny night
- Went longboarding from Huntington Beach to Balboa again. Dungo lost his phone, some japanese professional photography was going down and as we passed they asked me to be take pictures with their model (who was a pretty japanese woman with straight teeth, though she didn’t speak a...
Some Summer.
My sister, Ythy, just graduated this year as a double major. Quite proud of her. I went to her ceremony to take pictures and used my cousin’s D300, 70-200 F2.8, 24-70 F2.8, and 50 F1.4… even with his awesome lenses there was just not enough light to shoot. I did what I could with the poor light, but here are some pictures.
I’ve been doing a lot during summer, but I...

Baby Shower :D
Yes- that’s right. My eldest sister Mailinh is going to be having a baby and I’m going to be an uncle. A couple of month’s ago we all went out to eat up in LA and she and Viet told us to come back their place… where she showed us her first ultrasound. The baby was the size of an nugget so she had dubbed the baby’s nickname ‘Nugget.’ I was playing with my...
Disneyland & Sushi.
I’m not in the mood for typing too much… so I’ll let the pictures talk.

Spring Graduates! HOLLLER.
Congratulations to Thinh Le, Karter Patel, Jr and Nina!
Raymond had a BBQ at his parent’s house in ghetto Carson yesterday night (his parent’s house isn’t ghetto!) for all our graduating friends. Got home pretty late and woke up super early for the actual graduation. It was well worth it- love my friends. Don’t worry ya’ll… I’ll be joining the alumni club...
Late Mother's Day.
As most of you know, my mom is a busy person. So busy in fact, that most holidays she isn’t home, which is truly sad. For instance, this year she had to miss the day that was supposed to belong to her and her alone- mother’s day. Instead we wrote her a card and left it at her door, explaining to her why she is such an amazing mudder.
Today my siblings and I went to grab brunch at...
Off The Charts.
Stress.
midterms every week until finals.
some weeks have multiple midterms.
not enough time to study per exam.
planning 8-10hr days of molecular and neurobiology is seriously spirit breaking.
not taking into account class hours.
it’s getting much harder to rationalize the subject matter.
i know by now i should be okay with the bio/chem terminology, but things seem like a different...

There is Such Thing as TOO Much Fun
WARNING: PICTURE HEAVY! SLOW INTERNET? SUCKS FOR YOU! :D
I had just finished an organic carbonyl chemistry midterm, molecular biology midterm and a neurobiology midterm and was god damn fortunate that Jeff and Raymond were celebrating their birthday this past weekend. We went to Las Vegas of course and oh my LAWWWWDy… straight up amazing. We had a crazy car ride there while speed...
Midterms to Vegas to Laziness.
My midterms went well.
I celebrated in Vegas for Jeff and Ray’s birthday.
I’ll probably post pictures tomorrow.
You’ll get a real update tomorrow.
I don’t wanna type anymore.
Why is it so difficult to care about things you need to care about after Vegas?
So bad.
Round #143- Midterms
It seems as though I blog about midterms a lot. It’s because they come up a lot. I think my last blog about them said something on the lines of ‘why are midterms during instead week two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine? they should be in the middle!’ I’ve realized that I didn’t really think it through too much. Yes; they are in the middle, but the...
Wisdom Teef.
Yesterday I went to the dentist and removed my four wisdom teeth from my gums. I wasn’t put to sleep, just lidocaine shots to numb me up crazy. It was weird because he had just learned in my neurobiology class what lidocaine does (it blocks sodium channels of pain fibers in the mouth, which prevents the transient inward current of sodium meaning action potentials don’t happen=> no...

Too long.
