CHRISTMAS
finally hit me at our annual family party. everyone together, lots of good food and instruments galore. my uncle has a drumkit, bass, guitar and a piano in his basement. my cousins, my uncle and i all jammed for a good amount of the night. it was tight. little kids running around, lots of laughter and smiles. it was a good christmas. i wish i had pictures, but i was too busy jamming in the basement to take pics.

SOMBER
this year the holidays are coming and going with the quickness. it's 3 days from christmas and i've yet to deck my halls or jingle anywhere. i don't know if it's the giant blast of commercialism that has killed my christmas spirit or the fact that i don't believe in it as much as i used to.

i didn't even get time to make gifts like i was planning to. oh well, there's always next year.

LEEHAI

ONWARD

this morning, on my way to work, i started daydreaming about my house. the owner is selling it next year so i was imagining if i had the money to buy it and what i would do to renovate it.

i thought of turning the side bedrooms into my studio and recording booth. putting a glass aquarium between both rooms, knocking down the living room wall and making a bigger space in the family room and kitchen.

i daydreamed so much i missed my exit for work.

swear to god, if i didn't have field study today, i would have been in SF by now chillin at the beach or golden gate park.

DEMON

if i was to describe life as a roller coaster, i would choose great america's demon, one of my personal favorites.

i guess you could say i'm at the corkscrew part in life right now.

if you've ever been on the demon, those that have survived the experience usually hate the corkscrew or love it. my committee is still out on what i think of the corkscrew.

when i'm on the demon, i know it's coming but i know that it's ok i'm not gonna die. it's actually pretty exciting to go through it, but the thing i don't like is the whole head-banging-against-the-safety-rail thing.

i usually try to brace myself because that shit hurts. it kinda ruins the experience but i've learned to deal with it.

and really it ain't that bad.

just have to adapt. what a metaphor for life, eh?

DEEP FRIED



this was the highlight of my t-day. family recipe lumpia, based off my auntie nene's recipie. turkey and shrimp based. no pork for those who like to groove.

i don't know why i wrote that just now. it must be because i worked out late.

anyway, had the family approval for the lumpia. last time i made it was for work. family didn't try it. this time they got to taste it. all my cousin's italian in-laws loved 'em.

if there just was a way to get around deep frying the damn things. but until then, it's canola oil for everyone.
