I'm burned!

Well what a fantastic weekend that was!
Went to cousin Erik's place to celebrate Grandma and Grandpa's 50th anniversary. That's a lot of decades, years, weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds.
I was official camera guy. So was Steve.
I managed to take a little over 200 pictures. Many of them the same thing (Gotta make sure nobody is making a funny face).
All my cousins wanted me to do some comedy on the microphone. So I went to the bathroom with the mic turned on.
There was some delicious food there, too. I had about 4 shredded pork sandwiches. Mmm, delicous.
So that was on Sunday. After that I decided to stay an extra night there. So we stayed up and watched The Bourne Ultimatum. That's a sweet flick!
Then I was playing on Eric's laptop and saw that George Carlin died. I was sad. But as he said himself, "I'm an old fart" (replace fart with another four letter word starting with F that rhymes with Chuck).
He's my favorite comedian. A bloody genius and made ya think.
Then I went searching for a new laptop and I've found a nice HP Pavilion that I plan to get with the money I get from selling my current computer.

So today I decided to go to the city pool with a friend from work. What fun. They have a high-dive diving board that I went off of a few times. It's crazy!
Then I sat out in the sun and baked. And even though I had sunscreen on, I still got sunburned. So I just got done applying some Aloe Vera to all the places I could reach. Owie. :P Oh well, I'd say by Friday or Saturday it'll be better.

I also found out today that we got the apartment! They ran our credit report today and apparently it was good enough, so we got the apartment!
We're planning to move in July 18. So that should be lovely.
Now we just need to find jobs out there.

Anyway, that's all the news from me.
I've gotta work tomorrow.
See ya!

Six Flags and Hollywood

What a fun last couple of days!
Yesterday, Brady and I went to Six Flags. That was pretty fun. He wanted to go on all the roller coasters. They were INSANE! Luckily I didn't spew. That'd be gross for both me and everyone below me.
So many loops. There was one where your kind of standing. It's nuts.
Then there's another one called Tatsu (Japanese for 'Dragon') where you'd sit down in the seat and it would turn 90 degrees so you're facing down. It was scary!

SCARY!

While we were waiting in line for Tatsu, there was a cute japanese girl who was also in line. She noticed my "Looking for Japanese Girlfriend" shirt and laughed at it. Didn't get her name, tho. :P



The drivers out here are pretty nuts. I think the average speed on the highway is 75-80mph.



It's crazy!, but that's only when there's no traffic. When there's traffic, it's pretty much a dead stop. Well, depending on what time it is. It was kind of stop and go for us.



And that was pretty much the end of the day yesterday.

This morning (Thursday) we woke up early and headed for Studio City for my meeting with the agency.
I think that went okay. It could've gone better, but I was so nervous! So I don't know what they thought. Riley said he'd be talking with me soon. So hopefully it's alright. :P
After that we continued to look around for apartments around the area. I think we may have found one. It's $995 a month so it's not bad at all. But still waiting on other apartments. We toured a really sweet apartment that was GORGEOUS! Just for kicks. It was about $1600 a month and had a full furnished kitchen. It was gorgeous but expensive. Sorry, no pics, though.

We found a parking lot with a cool speed limit:


After we went around looking for apartments, we drove around Hollywood. That was sweet. We drove past some premiere of something at the Kodak Theater. Was so cool...


And aparently Jane Fonda and Chevy Chase were there, too. Don't remember what it was for, though.
Then we drove past Warner Brothers Studios

And saw an ABC building


And then we drove around the Hollywood sign. We got really close to it. It was so cool!









I even saw a Helicopter really far away

Here are some other shots up near the top










So, that's pretty much all the pictures I took today. Hope you like em.
I'm going to bed. Gotta fly home tomorrow!
Bye!

Yes Internet :)

Okay, I lied, I guess we do have internet. There was a network cable that had fallen behind the table and we didn't see it. So...sweet.

So today was a pretty fantastic day. Slept in until about 10. That was a good sleep. Someone had knocked on the door at like 5 in the morning. I opened the door and the guy was a few doors down and says "Sorry, wrong door!"
So I took a shower, there wasn't a mirror in the bathroom (they're in the process of repainting the place).
So we headed to Denny's and had some pancakes. Mmm. Good.

Afterwards, we headed out to "northern" LA in search for an apartment. We looked around at 3 of them. The first one we went to, which was recommended by Cousin Suzie, is so far my favorite. It's about $1300 a month, including utilities except electricity. The second one was a great place! But part of the requirement of renting is we need jobs with a combined income that is like 3x the price of rent, and must have good credit. And that was the same as the third place we looked at. So we're kinda leaning toward the first one.

So after touring the places, we went over to Suzies and she treated us to a steak dinner. Fantastic! It was delicious! She has a pretty cool place. And a sexy car!

We stayed there for a few hours and then headed out. On our way back to the hotel, we drove around Sunset Boulevard. There are some NICE places out that way. And I think we drove past an area where they were filming something. There was a trailer full of clothes that was open. :P

So after driving around, we got back to the hotel and the bathroom had the mirror put up. Sweet.
And now I'm writing this.
I only got a couple pictures with my cellphone will driving down the 405. Didn't really get my camera out too much.



The last few days my tongue has been hurting and I don't know why. So it kinda hurts to talk and do my impressions or sing. :(
And I've got a cancur sore in my mouth from that blasted Orange juice. GAH!

Alright, that's about all for today.
Not sure what we're gonna be doing tomorrow. Thinking about hitting up a beach. Can't wait!

Night!

No internet :(

Wow, what an exciting trip so far! NOT!
Flight was fine (cute japanese girl behind me, too. She kept peeking at me and blushing when her mom made a comment)
So anyway, we get to Hertz and they couldnt rent me a car cause im too young. Ugh. But there was a locally owned place down the road that rent us a car with proof of insurance. So i got it!
And now we're at the hotel and they dont have free internet :-(. So im typing this on my cellphone. Ill update as much as i can, but they may be short.

Ferris Bueller Monologue

Okay, I finished another monologue.
It's from Ferris Buellers Day Off




I don't know if I'm completely satisfied with my acting yet, though. Still needs some work.

New Monologue Again

Okay, I remade the monologue I posted a few days ago.

I think it's better




CLICK THE ADS!

I'm still here!

Yes, the rumors are true... I'm still alive! Woo!

What a pleasant weekend. Went to Moms for Hey Heatho's graduation party. That was pretty fun. Enjoyed seeing everyone.
I was there from Saturday - Tuesday. I think I averaged about 33 MPG in my car on the way there and back. Not bad, not bad.
Monday night I got all the details of my trip to LA straightened out. Flying out on Monday at 1:10pm. Will get there around 5 or something. Then we have a rental car from Hertz to get just out of LAX. And then go to our hotel. I believe it's called the Travelodge. I've got the addresses for most of the places programmed into my Garmin GPS I plan on bringing. I love that thing.
I have an interview set up for next Thursday with the agency I've been talking about. Can't wait! And then I'll have another interview with another agency when I move out there in July. My acting coaches agency. I hear they're really good.

Although slight concerns have arisen about the move in July. Mainly from transporting everything. I did a check on a Uhaul on their website and it'd cost us about $1050 for 7 days with a small truck and a car trailer. I don't think so!
I mean, all I'd really need a Uhaul truck for is for the beds, everything else would fit in my car. So I've been toying with the idea of just getting a furnished place and not have to worry about beds or couches or anything. And it'd prolly save a bunch of money on gas driving out there in a car instead of a giant truck towing a car. :P

I'm going to refilm my monologue that I posted below. I don't think it's good enough. So I'll post that in a few days or whenever I do it.

Mom gave me a small grill and I tried it out today. I grilled up some chicken breast. Yumm. That stuff is AWESOME with Heinz 57 Sauce. Then I worked out for a bit. 40 minutes of jogging and about 45 minutes of working out. Must.Get.Buff!

Coldplay has a new album coming out soon. So far it sounds fantastic! Comes out the 17. Can't wait.

Alright, I'm going to go to bed. Gonna get up early and try the new breakfast we have at the hotel. I guess we have omelets and bacon and stuff now. Sweet!
