Once In a Blue Moon Post

*Forgot to add a funny story about Ayden.  I was over at Hannah's house and he disappeared for a bit.  I found him in the bathroom and I asked "Are you pooping?"  And he answers, "Yea...my tummy hates me."  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.  So cute and funny! =P

Hi Guys,

Wow, I like NEVER post on Xanga anymore.  The main reason I posted was for pictures and I feel like Facebook does that better.  But I promised this baboon that I'd post again, haha.

Too many things have gone on since my last post so I can't do an event by event picture fest like I usually do.  But I will give a little run down on my life I guess.

I started studying for my CPA again.  I took a break for a few months because of the holidays.  But now I have to start again.  I really hate studying.  Can I just get rich somehow and not have to worry bout work? Haha.

Oh...another big thing: I'm getting PRESSURE to date and get married.  I feel it from everyone and everywhere.  It's like I'm being crushed, haha.  Too bad I suck at meeting new girls and that girls don't like me romantically.  I'd be a good boyfriend if I ever got the chance!  What boyfriend would go shopping with you and actually be an asset instead of whining the whole time?  Eh, oh well.

Anyways, I realized why I only did picture posts....because I suck at real posts, haha.  Here's a funny picture that I saw.  Yay for people with glasses!






And of course....a few pictures of my nephews =P

Ayden Potter!

Dominic and I


Ayden Kissing Dominic


Toodles for now,

Another Large Picture Update

I know it's odd that I'm updating so soon after my last update (It hasn't even been a month yet!!) but this summer has been full of fun stuff so far.  And throughout the summer as well.  So I'll be updating this frequently for a couple of months.

Anyways, I had to go to work in LA from June 7th - June 15th.  I found out June 4th, haha.  So anyways, I flew out June 6th and then went to San Francisco (as usual whenever I go to work in LA) to visit Karen.  It was a pretty chill weekend.  Some shopping, lots of eating, hanging out.  Then Karen, Va and Ctina came to visit Vu in LA so I stayed until June 17th to hang out with them too.  It was lots of fun.  Went to Lucky Strikes, Hermosa beach, etc.  Ok.  No more talking.  Just pictures (and captions).


San Francisco: June 15th - June 17th
Not many pictures of San Francisco because it was just mostly chill.  But I have a few.



Ate brunch at a place called Mama's where you have to wait in line that goes around the corner and down the block.  It was well worth it.  I got the Dungeness crab omelette!  So good!


Freaking weird truck we saw outside of a Taiwanese restaurant.


L.A.
After getting back from San Francisco I met up with Vu and Grace and some of Vu's friends for dinner.  I'm glad the superbusy Investment Banker could make some time for me, haha.  I really appreciated it!



Vu and Grace and the free dessert we got.  It was mad good.  Too bad I was so full!  (Grace!  You're in my "famous" xanga now! hehe)


Then the next weekend Vu and I picked up Karen from Long Beach Airport and then went to pick up Ctina and Va at LAX.  We made signs.  We're awesome.  Hahhaha.


We went back to Vu's apartment to drop off their stuff and get changed for the BEACH!  Va chilling.  She looks like an advertisement or something.  Sitting and drinking tea while reading a magazine or something.


The girls on the way to Hermosa Beach


Everyone at the beach except for Ctina who took this picture.  We ended up meeting Julie and her friend (I don't know how to spell his name so I won't try, haha) at the beach.


Ctina started doing a wushu pose and we told Vu to do it as well (since he actually did wushu and Ctina didn't, haha).  This is the pose he gave us, hahahaha.


Ctina was sneaky and tried to do this...


Karen got a little wet.  Look at the shock on her face.  Innocent Ctina ain't so innocent!


Took some obligatory pictures because we're asian.  Hardcore Karen and Ctina trying to act all innocent again, haha.


Me and Ctina.


Me and Vu.  Sorry about the stubble.  I forgot to shave that day =(


Vu, Karen and me.


Then Vu, Karen and Ctina took some jumping pictures.


It looks like Karen is dunking on the pier or grabbing onto it in this one, haha.


The theme for this one was supposed to be animals.  Karen was a tiger or bear or something else scary.  Look at her face....HARDCORE.  Vu was supposed to be an elephant and Ctina was supposed to be a crane, haha.


I was the innocent photographer but someone (*ahem* Karen) kicked sand all in my face and shirt.


There was an amateur beach volleyball tournament.  Me, Vu and Ctina went and played with this random guy on an empty court.  *sigh* I miss volleyball, haha.  But...it's freaking hard to run around and jump on the sand!


Then we went to dinner at Social Hollywood where supposedly a lot of stars eat at but we didn't see any =(


Karen, me, Ctina and Va in front of Social Hollywood.


Then we went to PINKBERRY!  This is the only picture because they have some ridiculous policy of no pictures inside.


Then we went clubbing at Club Element.  Karen, me, Va and Ctina.


Brian, me and Vu.  And Barbara's hand pointing at the one who was partying like it was his birthday (that would be Vu, haha.)


Same picture as above but Barbara and Grace decided to jump in, haha.


Haha, Vu was partying hard.


He was partying so hard that he didn't even notice when he started dancing with a guy, haha.


Vu had to take a break.  Haha, look at Karen's expression.  HAHAHA, look at Ctina's expression!!


Haha, Vu back at it.  His facial expression here is so hilarious cuz it looks nothing like him!


I guess he was hungry? Haha.


By the way, that was Julie in the picture above and in this picture here.  I'm trying to explain to her why I don't dance.  She didn't buy it.  She yelled at me but in a very nice way, haha.


Me and Grace!  (You were captioned TWICE in this entry.)


So funny because usually this is reversed and Vu is trying to jokingly put the moves on Ctina and she cringes and shies away.



And now pictures of Ayden and Dominic (especially for Jenn Chang! Haha)

My sister and Ayden.  I think he's trying to wink, haha.



Dominic chilling on the couch.  I think he's watching tv.  He looks reaaaaaaaaaaally comfortable.  Must be nice hvaing NO WORRIES!  Haha.

Mini Vacations Galore

So for the past two weekends I've gone on little mini vacations with friends.  First I went to Atlantic City for John and Evong's birthdays (even though the birthday thing didn't come up that much, haha) over Memorial Day weekend and then stopped by Philadelphia on the way back.  Then this past weekend I went to Deep Creek Lake.  Both weekends were fun and memorable.   *WARNING - MANY PICTURES TO FOLLOW*

 

Atlantic City: 5/25 - 5/27
Attendants: John, Evong, Narang, Balex, Seung Jae and me

We got to our hotel and dropped off our stuff and then headed over to the Borgata.

I played Pai Gow Poker while the others did the following:

Seung Jae and John chugging beer

Balex and Evong sipping drinks.

Narang and John in front of the wall of liquor.  (John...INTERVENTION!)

 

Then the next day we went to the boardwalk and the "beach" (Beach = dirty ocean with crappy sand)

Me looking emo on the beach in front of the Taj.

Me, Evong and Seung Jae on the boardwalk.

Me in front of the Hard Rock Cafe.  I asked for the fog machine.  J/K.


Then we stopped by the Taj Mahal and there was an interesting candy store with some interesting items.

This is Chocolate Body Paint.

This is the Chocolate Diet Plan.  If only that were true *sigh*.

LUSTY.  No caption needed.

Then we had dinner at Bobby Flay's Steakhouse at the Borgata.  Dude.  It was SO good.  And I don't even like Bobby Flay.

Overhead Lights.

Ceiling.

Menu.

Then we saw Bobby Flay himself!

Paparazzi picture of Bobby Flay eating.

 

Philadelphia: 5/27
Attendants: Balex, Evong, Seung Jae and me

Originally we were going to go up to NYC for the day but we decided it was too far so we decided to stop by Philadelphia for the day.  We went sightseeing and did some more eating.

Me in front of the Liberty Bell.  It was so small!!!  Freaking National Treasure made it look bigger.

Philly group in front of the Liberty Bell. L-R: Me, Balex, Evong, Seung Jae
 

Me in front of Independence Hall holding a $100 bill that has the Independence Hall on the back!  I learned that from National Treasure.


We also stopped by some random museum because it was air-conditioned and we had some time to kill.

This is me chilling and not noticing the T-Rex because I was listening to my iPod.
 

Then I notice the T-Rex and I am scurred.

Then I run away and hide from the T-Rex.  He somehow gets flesh, etc.

Then I realize he (the T-Rex) just wanted to play.  He also needs a breath mint.  YUCK.

Then we drove by the Rocky steps and then tried to go see the King Tut exhibit.  But it was sold out and it didn't have the King Tut mask anyways.  How lame.

Museum with King Tut exhibit sign.

Inside of that museum.

 

Then we went to Masahiro Morimoto's restaurant, Morimoto, in Philadelphia.  The food was pretty good but not as good as Bobby Flay's Steakhouse.  It was still a cool experience though.

Me in front of the restaurant.

2 person table against the wall.
 

Menu and place setting.

 

Lakehouse at Deep Creek: 6/1 - 6/3
Attendants: Sang, Jenni, Angie, Christina, John, Yuri, Tammy, Young Mee and me

On the way we stopped by a gas station and I fell in love.

At first it was just me, Jenni, Angie, Christina, Sang and John.  Here are the girls at the pier behind our lakehouse.

The guys in a Lacoste sandwich as Sang put it.
 

John "trying" to read.

Sang and the girls dipping their feet in the lake.  Too bad Sang looks like wang dda because the girls are kind of leaning away from him.
 

In the basement hanging out the first night and playing games like the Wii.

I think Jenni farted and so the other girls are horrified and leaning away from her.
 

Jenni got so embarrassed that she ran away.  J/K.  She was actually leaving to take a call from...yea...haha.
 


The next day we rented a boat and some people went tubing.  Too bad it started raining and then we accidently sucked up the tubing rope and got stranded on the lake.  Did I mention that it was raining?

All the girls on the boat.  L-R: Young Mee, Jenni, Tammy, Angie and Christina
 

Candid picture of me with the wind blowing my hair.  I thought it would look cool.  But I just look ruffled and like a bum.
 

John.  Our main boat captain.
 

Me and Young Mee.
 

Me and Christina.
 

Jenni, Christina and Angie.  Jenni looks like she REALLY likes Christina.
 

Me and our class girls.  L-R: Angie, Jenni, me, Christina, Young Mee
 

Christina driving.  She looks mean in this picture even though I know that's not possible with Christina, haha.

Tammy driving.  She looks like she's going FAST and she looks hardcore with her shades on, haha.

Nautical Yuri, haha.

Who is that weirdo with the umbrella?

Oh...it's me, haha.  It was raining man.  I swear!
 

Jenni and Angie getting ready to go tubing.  From their faces you'd think they were going skydiving or something, haha.
 

Haha.  Jenni almost fell off and asked us to stop but Angie said to keep going.  HAHA.
 

Sang is so funny when he tubes.  He has different poses.  This one is the "YOUUUUU!" pose where he shakes his fist at you.  Sometimes this is called the Mario pose.
 

Look ma!  No hands!
 

Sang chilling on his back on the tube.
 

But Sang's showboating led to an embarrassing fall, haha.  The only person to totally wipe out off the tube, haha.
 

We also ate paht bing soo every day, haha.  And since we made it ourselves we put in crucial amounts of dduk!
 

Jenni and Tammy "playing" games with us.  Haha, J/K.
 

Angie gave us some nice background music.  She looks hardcore.  Like a korean female Carlos Santana, haha.
 

All in all, it was a great trip with lots of food, laughs and fun!

 

Now...obligatory pictures of Ayden and Dominic.

Ayden giving me "Blue Steel" after eating ice cream, haha.
 

Black and white of Ayden brushing his teeth.

Small Update

   Hey Guys,

I know I'm getting worse at updating but here's a small one to tide you guys over until I get enough pictures of fun, exciting stuff to make a MONSTER update.  You guys know the drill.  After this introductory paragraph will be a series of pictures of recent events followed by pictures of Ayden and co.  Enjoy!

 

First Picture:  At Cafe Noir for John's birthday.  (From L to R and top to bottome: Karen, Me, Dan, Sonia, and John.

 

This at the Capital Grille.  My first picture of Mish and Howard as a couple.  Oorp.  I'm bringing oorp back.

 

Eunha's Wedding!  Congrats!  Eunha and Brian right after being declared man and wife.

Me and Eunha.  Now who am I going to gamble with until 4:30 am on a cruise ship?! Haha.
 

Eunha and Brian's first dance as a married couple.  Excuse the darkness of the photo.  The flash is not that strong and I didn't want to be all up in their faces during their first dance, haha.

Eunha in her reception dress.  (I've never heard of a reception dress before, haha)

Eunha strictly motioning for her man to GET OVER HER NOW!  So scary.  GOOD LUCK BRIAN!  Haha, j/k!

This is what she wanted him for.  Brian showing that he's the boss.

Me and Eunha at the reception.  Bye bye friend =(

Me and Grace Ham, my old fellow KAC intern from 2003!!
 

 

Next...I am an uncle...AGAIN.  My sister gave birth to another boy, Dominic Ji-Hoon Kwak on 4/3/07.  This is my sister and Dominic right after giving birth.
 

Dominic by himself.  He never opened his eyes while I was visiting that day unlike Ayden who was looking around everywhere the minute he was born.

This is Dominic as of yesterday.  Still likes to keep his eyes closed.  Maybe he learned that laziness from me =/

Ayden holding Dominic.  Sometimes Ayden ignores Dominic and other times he wants to hold him and kiss him.

And now two pictures of just Ayden making some faces.

Hey Guys,

I wanted to see if anybody wanted to buy a hard drive from me.  I have 3 of these.  My price is $120 which is cheaper than anywhere else that you'll find them.  Only people in Nova or can get to Nova reply.  Thanks.


So I noticed that I barely update anymore.  I'm sorry to all my fans out there (mom).  Anyways, here are some recent events in my life.  Most of these events are pretty boring but I have pictures so I know a lot of people will look at them, haha.

On Friday I went with my youth group to the Chris Tomlin Concert with Matt Redman.  It was really good.

As you can see from the picture below...we were really far away, haha.

As we were waiting for Jessica to come back from putting something in her car I had this conversation with Kang.

Kang: Let's take pictures!
Me: Of what?
Kang: Of me!

This is the picture that resulted.  (I think it's pretty cool except for the fact that it looks like she hasn't showered in days)

I think Virginia looks hilarious in this picture.  I also find it amusing that Yoon Bum thought he wasn't in the picture, haha.

This is a normal pose of PJ and Virginia.

Wi thinks she's a ninja or something.

Haha, Sumi looks funny in this picture.  Nice face there!

It's Kang's birthday soon so I bought her a T-shirt from the concert.  Happy early birthday by the way! =P

 

 

After the concert Dennis' class slept over my house and we had a three part competition with the loser doing a punishment that can't go on Xanga, haha.

The first competition was foosball.  One game to 10 points.  INTENSE concentration.

The second competition was a round of Mario Party 7 up to 10 rounds.

The last part was CRANIUM.  The losing team had to...suffer, hahaha.  That's all you need to know =P

Post-punishment fun

 

So yesterday me, Dennis and Sang Jin went to UVA for the day since Sang Jin is trying to transfer.  So I gave him the tour and we talked to an admissions person.  It was great to visit again and meet up with old friends and fellow KPCW members.  ALSO, to eat good fooood.

Here's Sang Jin in front of the Rotunda on the Lawn.

Here's Sang Jin posing as Thomas Jefferson in front of a statue of Thomas Jefferson inside the Rotunda.

From L to R: Dennis, Sang Jin and me inside a room in the Rotunda.

We went to go eat lunch at Marco and Lucca's to eat dumplings then to eat gelato afterwards.  Later on we went to Fashion Square mall with Erika to visit Courtney as she worked at Starbucks.  Thanks for the yummy Cinnamon Dulce and the bag of coffee beans!

And of course I had to go to dinner at Saigon Cafe to eat garden rolls and 901.  Here are the people that came to dinner.  First picture is Julianne spaced out (as usual) and William.

Next is Jimmy Bae toasting...to himself.  And next to Jimmy is June who thought she wasn't in the picture, muahaha.

Then it's Erika who lives in my old room and me.

Now it's Dennis bothering Harry (Hae-Rin).

Amy being reaaaaally happy and Harry (again...you should be honored Harry because you are the only one other than me to be repeated in the dinner pictures).

Me and Sang Jin....I don't know what I'm doing, haha.

 

And then some non-embarrassing pictures of me that me, Grace Ko and Mish took at Barnes and Noble.

Serious or comtemplative Alex.

Laughing Alex.

Casual Comic Book Alex.

 

A picture of Ayden to come soon.  (I don't have it on this computer).
