XxLiLVietPhoFriscob0ixX: February 2009

1. I am extremely into Korean music at this point of my life. It's gotten to the point where I don't even know what the new English songs are that play on the radio when I'm with friends. But it's not just korean music, I try to stay up to date on their lives and current projects or whatever shows/appearances they have been on. I have even passed on this obsession to my good friend Jesse haha!

2. I MUST have on a fresh, tight wife beater. I can't stand it when the beater is stretched out, which is why I don't wear it to sleep.

3. I went to a Catholic school from K-8, so I know a little bit about Catholicism even though I am not myself.

4. People have told me I give good advice about relationships and what not, but I can't seem to follow my own advice.

5. I am probably the worst speller in the world. When I don't know how to spell a word I want to use when I'm chatting or FBing I tend to google the word and then use it to make myself sound smart ;P

6. People who know me know that I have a bad case of OCD and will constantly clean around me. I am like this only because my mom always made me clean my room and stuff around me, so I guess it always stuck with me. It also shows through my house (for people who have been to it) because it is spotless.

7. All of my mom's side of the family live in Connecticut and I love going there for summer vacation because the family is so big. My mom has maybe 10 siblings or so, and each one of them have like 2+ kids, so I have alot of cousins to chill with over there.

8. I'm not THAT much into sports as most guys are. I still watch sports and know how to play it and know who's playing, but I'm just not a hardcore sports adict like some people I know.

9. When I was younger my brother would spend his time playing video games or pretending to play sports, while I play with action figures or use my imagination to play with the toys I had. I would even sometimes make my own toys. Example: I used to watch WWF alot so I made my own World Heavyweight Championship belt that I pretend to own.

10. Freshman year of hs I attended Phillip and Sala Burton Academic High School because I did not get into Lowell in 8th grade. Because I was so sheltered in elementary/middle school, I wasn't exposed to the real world as much as I should've so when I entered Burton I was shocked by the "scary people", muggings, shootings, drugs, sex, and who knows what else. Classes there were a joke because no one in the class really concentrated on school work, but instead messed around in class. The only class that was decent was my English Honors class (which was majority aZn). It was that class where I actually met some cool people, too bad I didn't K.I.T.

11. Freshman year I tried riding my friends fixed gear bike and fell in love with the feeling. Since then I've had 2 fixed gear bikes, spent clost to 1k on parts and labor, but enjoy every minute of it.

12. As a child I was really rebellious and wild. I used to drink packets of butter from KFC for shocks and laughs in front of my cousins.

13. Because I had so many baby cousins that I took care of in Connecticut, I feel like I'm good with kids. Most people are scared of babies and try to avoid them. I like to make babies laugh and taking care of them, there's just someone about their laughter that makes me feel good.

14. I enjoy working out. I like the idea of having muscles and being "cut". The main reason I do it is not only for my own benefits, but also for girls. I love it when girls compliment me such as "Oh, have you been working out?" It makes me feel like all the lifting and being sore was worth it.

15. I have different phases of music in my life. There were points where I listen to rock/alternative and other points where I listen to trance. No matter what, I'll always listen to rap/hip-hop. I think it's from growing up in "the city"; all the hyphy music gets to everyone somehow. I also like listening to rnb, especially when there's a girl in my life, those songs always help.

16. My first job ever was working at the Waffle Cone Shop/Dreyer's Ice Cream at Pier 39. I scooped ice cream for tourists and got a monster of a forearm from it. I quit after that one summer because all my workers were chinese and/or FOBS and only spoke cantonese to one another and I never understood.

17. Although I am half Chinese and Vietnamese, I tend to embrace my Vietnamese side more, and NOT because I hate my Chinese side or I am ashamed of it (no matter what I say). My family is just more Vietnamese in celebrating traditions, speaking the language, and the food we eat and cook. When I was younger I did know a lot of Catonese, but as I started preschool and 3 languages was too hard to juggle.

18. I am more of a night person and tend to always stay up late at night doing absolutely nothing. I've had nights where I stay up so late that the sun starts to rise. You can usually find me on AIM until at least 2 or 3am every night.

19. I am notoriously known for being a sloth. When I don't have to wake up for anything the following day, I can sleep for the entire day, and although it feels so good to sleep for so long I hate it. I hate sleeping the whole day away, and waking up to eating dinner and in a few hours having to go back to sleep.

20. I enjoy singing even though I know I can't and I annoy everyone around me hates it. Shuttup and join me! It's the funnest when you don't try and just sing for fun.

21. I'm a big fan of cheese. I can eat cheese all day, and have done so eating mozerella sticks all day. I like bread too, I can usually eat bread by itself, or even better bread+cheese =O

22. Freshman year me and my neighbors in the dorms got a chance to sneak into the HP Pavilion in San Jose because one of my neighbors was a security guard there. He turned all the security cameras around to let us into the place. I got a chance to slide around on the ice that the San Jose Sharks play on, walk around the corridors after hours, walk into the VIP lounges, and stand on top of the HP Pavillion overlooking the entire city. Too bad we saw cops roll by, freaked out, and ran out back into the car.

23. I like wearing hats, or fitted hats to be more exact. I guess it's because I never got to wear them when I was younger. My collection is still growing, but I probably have (or have had) 15+ hats. 4 of them being the regular SF Giants one, because I keep ruining them due to rain or sweat.

24. People who I tend to see alot through out my daily life, yet I don't know their name, I make up a nickname for them. Me and my friends tend to do that also. It seems more fun when you and your friends have nicknames for people (even though sometimes you know their real name). It creates an inside joke that only you and your friends understand. We have tried creating a list of all the nicknames of the people in our lives, but it turns out to be an endless list.

25. I like pornography.
