First Happy Hour with my sister...

Considering how much I drink... (or have drank) who would have thought that I've never been out drinking with my sister!?  STFU.

Special shoutout to +Ty Cullen, Maya and Kellen for making this a night to remember and of course, Ms. Delta Work - for turning it out... +Hamburger Mary's 

PS. I need to buy a new shirt.

Las Vegas in 24 hours... pictalk

Yes, I'm crazy, but one of my friends comes at a close 2nd.  <3 a="" class="g-profile" href="//plus.google.com/103090759518474938510" nbsp="" target="_blank" you="">+Putali Kandel
 

I wasn't planning to go anywhere in LA with the exception of the surrounding area to see friends and family, but next thing you know, she's picking me up and #roadtrip off to Las Vegas.  

With all of the stops, the trip was roughly 5 hours... Thanks to Taco Bell for keeping us hydrated - those Taco Supremes are so good. LOL

This trip was way too short, I could have spent easily another day gambling. After arriving to the hotel, a quick walk around, a little gambling - it was already dinner time - yup, off to +Gordon Ramsay's Burgr in Las Vegas.  Which I was very happy to see +Alberto Garcia join in on the fun with us.  

Surprisingly, the menu there was affordable.  By affordable, I mean a cheapest burger was $12 and the most expensive was $20.  If you've been to another of Ramsay's restaurants you know a meal can cost upwards of $60-$100 per person.  The jalopeno poppers were great - but if you're not use to spicy food - stay away from them! They weren't too spicy, but the combination of that and the cheese did a number on my stomach.  

After an awesome dinner with great company, it was time for a little gambling and then a massage.  I love getting foot massages while I am in Las Vegas/So Cal.  They cost around $20-$30 and its a whole hour treatment!  Super awesome.

After that, we pretty much went to the hotel room and passed out.  The next day, I woke up early to meet one of my friends from Hawaii, Daisy - who is now living in Las Vegas - yey!  It was great to talk story and catch up.. .it's been ages!  

That was pretty much it, a drive home, which involved Uber because of my parents. LOL they're crazier than I am - I swear!

Until next time Las Vegas! 












Special thanks to +Caesars Palace for accommodating our quick trip!  Hooray for Total Rewards!

TravelTalk - Big Island September 2014 - Photos!

Big Island is one of my favorite if not, my favorite island of Hawaii.

This trip was super quick in comparison to my other trips to the Big Island, coupled with two mutes who had the nerve to use the term "socially inept" to talk shit about someone, while their inability to carry a conversation or even initiate one... anyways I shouldn't waste more words on people I will never acknowledge in my life.

Read previous Big Island posts here... CLICK ME! 

Big Island for me is like what I think people imagine Hawaii to be... If you're thinking of crowded beaches, hotels, resorts and shopping then you should probably stick to Oahu - Waikiki to be specific.

The short time on the Big Island was pretty much hanging out with one of my favorite people +selena summer maxwell, eating, talking, laughing, getting massages, swimming, snorkeling, laughing, eating, eating - did I mention, eating?   

It was also nice to see the group again.  It's quite funny really, I kinda wish I had a group picture.  This is my 2nd time heading to the Big Island where Summer participates in Ladies night - and of course, I am invited - the only one of the opposite sex who has been able to attend (as far as I know).  It was great to catch up, talk story, laugh about new things, eat healthy food.

Well, who knows... one of these days I'll be back - funny thing is it might be sooner than later... 

If you go to the Big Island - they have so many massage schools over there! Go get one or two!  $25 for an hour is a steal!  Kinda want another one now.  

Special thanks to +OnePlus for having a super awesome camera and allowing me to capture memories without bringing my DSLR.

Moped adventures.

Funny.  Before this trip, I've never ridden on a moped in my life.  Now, I think its one of my preferred methods of transportation!  

My friend +Eric Pucan Hester and +aubrey ph have a moped which they weren't using because Eric injured his hands, and I of course was hesitant to borrow it.

Needless to say, after a 10 crash course and quick Q and A in operation - I rode that moped from Kalihi to Hawaii Kai.

While that doesn't sound like a big deal...  the first time I rode the moped was at night and it started raining on Kalanianaole Highway... which felt like darts were being thrown at me.

Besides that... its completely #awesomesauce

Quick blurb...

I can't believe it has been forever since I've written a blog.

Actually, I kind of can, when I have too much time on my hands, prioritizing things really isn't all that important.  haha.  Well, I'll be writing a couple of blogs in the next three house about random stuff that pops into my head and past events.

Today is another beautiful day in Hawaii.  Since I've written last time, I've gone to the Big Island, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.  Hung out with friends and even had the chance to make new ones.

So... here comes the blogs...
