Lately l just noticed a lot of friends overstressed from work. Not sure what to do to help or if l can help but l just feel bad. lm not saying my work is stress free but its pretty close to that. Some other friends have it much worse than others and you can see them age faster. Esp the grey hair in the 20s. l just feel like it shouldnt be this way tho. Its like work is killing all my friends. l dunno, lm just thankful lm not that stressed. Even tho everything isnt perfect w me work wise(could always use more clients in the winter), lm still thankful my work is enjoyable.
KK so the week.
Weds night l just spent a chunk of time playing Bloodborne. Gahhh such a good fucking game. Played till like 530am cause l lost track of time. Before going to sleep, took care of some work and knocked out early morning.
Thurs got up and hit up The Lab early for the Ultra Street Fighter 4 tournament. Got chinese food, chilled w the guys who came early and played a ton of Street Fighter 5 w Brian before the tournament. l do like it a lot. Its weird how the Street Fighter 4 series will always be special to me but l dunno how l really feel bout Street Fighter 5. Street Fighter 5 is the future tho and its a good time. We'll see. So hit the tournament and had a round robin but didnt do so hot. Its weird how everyone is beatable includinng me. We really are like a group of different type Pokemon as there are some people who l can always beat and they can beat someone who l usually lose to. So what ends up mattering is where you are seated in the bracket if it is a double elimination bracket. But in a round robin its more fair who is overall the best. Good times w the guys and hit home where l ended up watching and reading about japanese and korean culture because of an article about how sex is much rare in Japan and their decreasing population issue. From there, l just ended up learning a lot bout the issues their society has and its pretty crazy how things develop. Also watching things about Korean culture and how image seems to be everything.
Friday got up late and played Bloodborne in the evenning. Later on hit pregame at OJ's and yooooooo OJ can cook. Smoked hookah, had drinks annndd wrote drinking rules on Jenga pieces. My lil sister had the best one that you had to lick your shot out of the shot glasses like a dog lol. Just straight up tasting all that liquor. The other funny and fucked up one she had was 'gargle your shot' hahahaaahha that would suck so bad. The thought of it happening makes me laugh. Tons of friends came through pregame and got some new people as well.
Afterwards, hit up Rumor and had fun dancing w the Squadron lol. We actually bounced room to room more often. The EDM room was just very hype. Partied till 2am and hit back to sleep asap as l had to get up early on sat.
Sat got up at 930am ughhhh and hit up the Magic the Gathering pre-release at Oxford Valley mall. So this set is a bit awkward for limited format. l wasnt the only one thinking that bombs are VERY powerful this time around because there arent many answers for them. Its just whoever plays them first will dominate the board greatly. l got mana fucked so hard against my second opponent and felt on tilt. l ended up going 4 wins, 2 losses but wasnt good enough to make Top 8 of the 60+ some people. Good times hanging w Hack SteveC and RobL tho. l admit l was highly entertained at Steve's story about his opponent who he was upset he lost to since the guy was a total derp. Like nice guy but SOOO DERPY. And would cast his spell w a flick of the wrist all Yugioh like lol... and then he beat Steve two games in a row lol. Thats the worst but it made me laugh. l wish l had it on video... the magic wrist flick and Steve's face seeing it. We got food half way into the tournament and later won a deckbox from Hack's raffle tickets.
Afterwards, hit home and ate microwavable pizza cause its still good and made ramen w eggs while watching Shark Tank and then hit up pregame at Tim's. Friends started coming through. Lit the hookah and played some beer pong and lost my first 2 games aiorhgoairhgaoig....... found a partner in my new friend Perry and we went on to win the next 17 games together!! 17!!!!!11111 17 was my record wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back when l was still in college visiting Jack's party in Philly and went 17-1.... but then... Perry had to leave. l begged him to stay to win 1 more to break my record cause l was nervous of getting a shitty partner to lose it for me. MikeM ended up being my partner and we won the next 5 games together before everyone left to bar hop/Coda/Soundgarden Hall. But yes.... 22 win streak. My new record. l kinda wish l lost just so l dont wonder WHAT IF pregame didnt end. l was back to 2006 era frat boy lyfe. l was mad obnoxious. It was glorious. But in general, met some new people at pregame and tons of friends made it out in general. Thank you Tim for hosting pregame.
Afterwards, Philly traffic was ridiculous and parking was terrible but finally found a spot and hit Coda. Ran in partying w friends and jumped in some multicultural fraternities stroll because it was pretty easy to follow. Danced w friends and had went upstairs to socialize as it was ridiculously hot inside. The music was straight up hip hop all night and got a lot of positive feedback about it. Def had a fun time but was totally exhausted from getting no sleep the night before, waking up early and also going crazy during beer pong cause of all that Monster l drank and winstreaks make me annoying lol. Hit home and ate more food before knocking out.
Sunday woke up late in the afternoon which felt great and had a real bummy day. It was snowing but l was CRAVING Taco Bell so headed out anyway and got $17 worth of Taco Bell cause lm fat. Watching tons of Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia and thenn later watching Kumite in Tennesee's Ultra Street Fighter 4 tournament. Very simple day and ended up by playing mass amounts of Bloodborne.
Mon took care of work annd harassed clients and took it easy. Headed out to get JennyJ for a lil dinner. We hit up Chinatown and we were gonna get ramen but then ended up at Bonchon lol... which is never a bad change ever. Stuffed face and tried a new thing which l totally forgot what its called. Def a really good dinner and afterwards we headed out to get Tswirl. She never had it before and lm a pretty big fan of Tswirl in general. Got crepes and aoirghaoirgha so good. Def a fun night w Jenny and dropped her off late nnight before hitting home and sinking mad time into Bloodborne.
Tues worked during the afternoon and headed out to Bianca's at night. We bummed for a bit and later went out to get food. We hit up a Trader Joes and found soup dumplings along w mochi icecream l was curious about and then got food at Honeygrow. So Honeygrow is interesting and l could def see it becoming popular. Def reminds me of college days having a stir fry center in the cafeteria. It was one of the best things always for dinner. We watched some Arrow and bummed it and also finally tried mochi icecream which was mad good. Def will have to get it again for myself sometime.
Pced out later and met up w Long and got payment for the past weekend at NYE's and talked about the Chinese New Year event we're setting up Feb 5th at Aura. Hitting up all the same organizations as usual and looking forward to having another event to work on. Hit up Drexel to give Pla braclets for the guests of the Sigma banquet as we are helping them on their after party at Coda.
Got home and watched Pretty Little Liars and played some of the Street Fighter V beta before it closed down. Then played Bloodborne all night again lol.
Weds l was still up playing Bloodborne till 8am. Its one of those games ya know? Slept during the day and got up and hit Best Buy in the evening. Got a 4TB hard drive and displayport to hdmi converter as lm told l should have both monitors plugged to the gfx card and not one to my motherboard. Got some pizza hut and hit home to watch Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia for a while. Watched some of the Madcatz Street Fighter 5 tournament on twitch and played Bloodborne allllll night and finally finished it. It was a great but sad feeling.
Thurs l was still up from playing all night. Hit the bank to make a deposit and finally went to bed in the afternoon. Got up late and missed the Ultra Street Fighter 4 tournament at The Lab. The first one l missed. Just way too tired to get up and l was gonna play like ass. Watched it on Stream tho towards the end. Followed it by watching the Street Fighter 5 tournament held by Madcatz again on twitch. Def a really chill night.
Spiritual BAE
Late.
