Sup Guys, usually I just post a pic of Hack at the end but today we’ll talk bout who he is to me.

He’s kinda dumb. Once at Yakitori Boy, he had to us do karaoke in the main room. The song he picked… The Final Countdown. Do you know how dumb of a song it is to sing at karaoke?! You just say 'the final count down' every now and then and in between it’s awkward. That’s the kinda guy he is.

11/10 Thurs got up early and was working on leveling up guns on COD MW2. Sadly, games just have you do tedious things to have you keep playing in order to earn things you pretty much need to stay competitive. Its such an annoying business model. I get it. But its still annoying. Instead of the fun part of figuring out which attachments and tuning work well w which gun. The trail and error time. The past few weeks has simply been get as much XP as possible each game to level up this gun so l get attachments for this and other guns. Im not even at that fun part of testing ideas and stuff. And when Warzone 2 drops w more guns, thats more guns to go into Multiplayer which l wont wanna do, just to kill as much as l can for a day to finish off the gun. Theres just a lot of not fun things you MUST do to then enjoy the game at a serious level. Or just try playing w shitty guns and not worry bout it and thats not fun either.

Anyway, Vee came through. Her and Dan are back home for a bit cause of a wedding. We hit the mall and Target and just had a good time chilling. I do gotta spend more time w her while shes back. Either way, it never feels like shes gone when she is. She hasnt lived in PA in forever now but nothing changes.

Back to COD to level up guns and then hit The Lab for Street Fighter 6 beta tournament lol. Took 3rd place w Luke and yooo we’re really breaking down this game. This game is seriously so good. Afterwards, hit back home and Sam came to chill. Playing COD late and leveling guns.

Friday slept in hardcore from being up so much on thurs. Hit the movies and thanks for saving me the seat ScottD for Black Panther Wakanda Forever. I really liked the movie a lot for a lot of different reasons. Marvel is always hilarious when it wants to be but lately, its going to comedy focused. Still hilarious but not what lm looking for. Wakanda Forever had a great tribute to Chadwick Boseman, tying to the movie but to real life too. The story was great, action was great, just the right amount of jokes. More stuff setting up for the future. Actually a lot of stuff, 3 l can think of, is set up for the future. In the end, it was a lot of things but l liked that it was a nice goodbye to Chadwick Boseman and a look to the future, in real life and in the MCU.

Hit home, just leveling up guns like crazy and watching youtube on the side. Its crazy how all this knowledge and stuff in Multiplayer is literally going to waste second Warzone 2 drops. The only thing we’ll be doing in Multiplayer is grinding Shipment to level up guns. Such an annoying waste of time to stay competitive. Its one thing bout fighting games l like. You just play. You start, you got everything you need and play. You dont need to do things to ‘keep up’. The only thing you need to do to keep up somewhat is learn to fight the new characters that come out but that is so spaced, you are in no rush.

Sat got up early w my lower back hurting. Prob from bad posture gaming so much. Got a massage at Lihzi and yooo massages went up to $75. Plus the $20 tip… $95 is kinda steep now for a massage. I get it, massages been $60 for an hour FOREVER. So esp w inflation, it was due for a mark up but yo 25% mark up and thats the way it is now… its gonna make me think twice bout getting a massage. You know how much food you get for $95?! Not as much as before sadly lol. Everything costs more. Life sucks like that. Got Poke bowl before hitting home to play COD all afternoon, leveling up guns repeatively.

Watched a shitty 47 Ronin movie and me and Jeremiah enjoyed it for just being a stupid fun movie. We hit Ngoc’s party and had a good time drinking, smoking and eating w everyone. Met some new people. Just ran around, socializing. Hung out, debating bout shit lol. Chilled till 3am or so and hit back home to watch Supernatural before passing out close to 8am.

Sunday was slept away.. I didnt wake up on Sunday… I woke up on Monday morning 130am…

11/14 Monday got up at 130am… There was no Sunday. Well, there was. Just Sunday midnight-8am so l got 8 hours of the day. I stayed up all night Monday playing COD, grinding away cause l have a few more things l realized l wanted to unlock. Eating chinese food and watching Curb Your Enthusiam and smoking hookah. Didnt really get anything done. Was kinda super bummy. Fell asleep at 4pm..

Tues got up at 2am… just on my phone bullshitting away. This sleep sced is mad weird cause l miss out on my afternoon and night. I start my day w late night. Its kinda too odd. So lm up all night leveing up guns nonstop. Its not fun for any of us to do this. The grind that games make you do so they can say ‘look how many people are playing our game!!’ ‘look how many hours they’re putting in’.. Sadly this is NOT FUN WORK to then enjoy the game later. Took hookah and Curb Your Enthusiam breaks and then back to leveing up guns. The guys hopped on to join for a lil and that was seriously my day. I know… its kinda sad. Ended the night watching youtube w Jeremiah.

Weds got up early, working on stuff for family properties and doing real estate work. Was feeling sick. COD Warzone 2 finally dropped and l had issues for hours but finally got it working. We played nonstop. We got 3 2nd places and finally a 1st place. I dunno if we’re doing so well cause we’ve all been grinding our guns and we’re def at a major advantage or the fact that this group is still nonstop on Warzone in general. Plus all the new players or people who left Warzone 1 and came back to Warzone 2 and are mad rusty. Prob a lot of factors but l was surprised how we were doing all night.

Thurs got up late and just got on COD. lm gonna have a problem for a lil bit. Played all night and then chilled w Jeremiah late night, watching videos and playing Pokemon. Dude Pokemon is really rough to play through. I get lm playing a game that has its main story targeted for kids so lm not gonna enjoy it. The dialogue, the story, the tasks. Its all really kiddie. Its so kiddie tho… IF I WERE A KID I still wouldnt enjoy it. As a child tho, l never liked Barney and that shit. I was all bout Ninja Turtles and GI Joes from my earliest childhood memories. Anyway… more COD Warzone 2 into the morning.

Friday still up on COD. Not stopping. Finally slept at 1pm. Got 3 2nd places in Solos… Gahhh… Got up later and hit Joel’s for a Friendsgiving. First off, food was banging. Good to eat like, a good real meal lol. I brought a ton of Soju bottles and we just did rounds of shots while chilling. Had a lot of talks bout club life given the crowd we had and we took a big group pic by the Xmas Tree outside. Back up for Murder Mystery and yooo Joel… lm w you on that. Both Murder Mystery games on Jackbox are the best. Joel had prizes for us too lol. Good spending time w everyone.

Got home later and got on Duos w Steve and won our first duo together. Yayyy steve!!! Da Chinese Champions lol. We’re also pretty good in gulag together.

Sat got up and got Domkey and we met up w Alex and Brando and rode to Bounme’s. Thank you for driving Alex! Hit Bounme’s, lit the hookah, brought out Soju and tons of friends came through for Bounme’s Friendsgiving event. A lot of old friends and met some new people. Did a Hot Pot Friendsgiving and yoo l havent had hot pot in a while so it was relieving to have again. Stuffed face and used my stove for my hookah as an extra set up. We had the hood pot but it was a good pot. So w this squad, we knew it was gonna be gaming talks, anime talks, just weebing the fuck out. Rounds of soju while sitting around the hookah. Talking bout dick pics and others lifting weights lol. It was a fun night!! Hype to be all together again for another Bounme event and then Magfest.

Passed out hard on the car ride back and then ended the night playing some COD.

Sunday l played COD like crazy. It was really bad. Got groceries and a new controller as the current 2 PS5 controllers had some bad stick drift. It happens. Just kept playing COD all night and got 2 more 1st places in Quads. Also, got a new skin so l can become to Ultimate Bushmaster.

11/21 Monday got up early. Working on real estate and now plotting our Chinese New Year Event. Chinese new years is end of January this year so my event is 2 weeks right after the college students come back to school so l gotta plan it early. Got on COD w the guys, playing a lot of DMZ all day and got the M13B which is the M13 from Warzone 1 that doesnt hit as hard but because of lower health in Warzone 2, its pretty much the same gun. A laser beam that takes more bullets to kill. Had fun doing mad DMZ. Its more chill but when you do fight real players, its also more exciting cause its been a lil bit since fighting other real life players.

Tues got up and hit a friend’s father’s funeral. Wishing my friend well and hope he’ll be ok soon. Saw old friends and then afterwards, got food w Ryan at a spot he really likes called Manny’s. Got home to do work for a little and then got on COD w the guys. Later on did some Solos and got a solo win and then friends came over for Dumpling Sessions. Me and Andres really broke down Ryu oki as he wasnt sure how to re-apply pressure. We found some stuff out that just raw drive rushing after certain combos lead to AMAZING oki for Ryu. Real basic but really good. Made a ton of dumplings and had a good chill night w everyone. Also Happy Birthday Andres!!! You shoulda told us your birthday was at midnight!! Ended the night watching Cabinet of Curiosities which l really enjoy.

Weds got up to help out friends w real estate stuff and then got on COD for Vince’s birthday. For his birthday, we got him 4 quad wins lol. Def a solid gaming night. Made burgers late night and also ate these baked things w pepperoni and cheese that Jeremiah made that was really good. Just a bum night, watching youtube.

Thurs got up working on editing a lot of videos.

Check out the mini collages of some of my first few wins. Solos Duos and 2 Quad wins. Played a lot of Pokemon and then hit my Mom’s for a Thanksgiving dinner w my mom, grandmother and uncle. Chill night and then hit home to play more COD and got 2 more wins and then back to Pokemon while chilling w Jeremiah lol.

Friday got up early but wasnt feeling too well. I was only up for 6 hours. Just ate, watched some youtube. But then went to bed mad early. I was awake for like 6 hours total on Friday.

Sat got up at 5am and was feeling better. Just chilled and did some work in the morning and then played COD Warzone 2 Duos and DMZ all day. Nothing too crazy. Cooked one of my everplates and took it easy watching a ton of youtube. Was still in recovery but the Theraflu really helped out.

Sunday l was dying again. Watching Andor, eating chicken noodle soup. Vee ordered me Lobster Bisque from Red Lobster!!! Dawww that’s a true best friend. Thank you Vee. I really appreciate it. Just bummed all night. Watching shows and taking it easy.

11/28 Monday got up early, running errands and on work calls. Productive day and then got on COD at night for a lot of Solo’s. Got a win really cheap. Helicopter, Durable gas mask = 0 kill win lol. Just youtube late night and food before sleeping early.


Tues got up and had a really chill day. Just bullshitting online and playing COD w the guys all day. Ended the night watching Cabinet of Curiosities which l really like a lot. Had to look up what a cabinet of curiosity was which was a collection of things w strange stories tied to it that you’d show off after dinner parties and stuff cause it was like 1910 lol.

Weds was a severe nerd day. Just had youtube on while playing Pokemon all day. Getting through the game. It got better and lm just trying to push through so l can go to ranked and see how well l do there in doubles. I dunno if lm gonna do both doubles and singles or just focus solely on doubles. Swung by Ryan’s studio to help move stuff out. Good seeing everyone and it was cool to see how productive and disciplined his students are. Got back home and more Pokemon and youtube all night lol.

Thurs was also super bummy. My weekdays obviously are really tame. Just more Pokemon throughout the day till night time to get on COD. Really loving the new Warzone 2. Just nerded out all night. Its been peaceful. Theres just too many good games out now.


Friday got up and got Gavin and we hit NYC. Got to House of Wes coined by my sister and had a fun pregame. Meeting a lot of new people. Soju shots and hookah. Got amazing parking cause there’s always open spots in NYC l swear. For the last 3 yrs, since covid started, there’s always a spot regardless where you’re going. I refuse to train, uber or anything lol. We hit up Mission and thanks to my sister being so cool, we got in free and cut line lol. She’s got an easy life.

Got in, got drinks and yoo… l NEVER had a bad time at Mission. Music is point, people are always dancing. Thats all l need. Danced all night w the squad and later on, some of the guys from pregame earlier got a table. I stayed on the dance floor though cause it was just hype on the dance floor all night. Like literally sweaty mess. Partied late and late night, we dipped out to Allison’s spot. Just making dumplings, ramen and hookah. Always a good way to end the night lol.

Sat got up and Allison Vince and Gavin were going out for a full day but after fri night, all the drinking and dancing, l wasnt gonna do shit. Just straight up bum day at Allison’s. Ordered food at Yumplings and stuffing face, watching Rush Hour, smoking hookah. Just didnt do shit. Felt great.

Later on, we hit up Xi’s birthday at a sushi spot. Happy Birthday Xi!! So met a lot of people at his birthday, just having special drinks and socializing all night. Whoever got the cake, thank you, it was banging. We then headed out to Webster Hall for Jason Ross. Found great parking again and got in quick. Allison has a secret coat check spot, pretty much an exit no one goes to and hangs her coat up high on the pipes lol. Whatever. Wrapped all coats in my black jacket and wedged it up there. Had fun running around dancing w everyone. Other friends were there too and got to catch up and party together. Half the night was social running around and seeing other friends. Heard ‘one more song’ and that was my que to get the jackets before everyones exiting at once. Same w getting the car out. Dropped off Shannon and hit back to Allison’s. Stuffing face w my left over Yumplings and chilled for a lil before driving home.

Got home at like 530am and Jeremiah was up. Just lit a hookah and talked bout a lot of stuff for an hour and half before going to sleep.

Sunday got up late and Jeremiah went to get food from Matt and Amy’s food truck Thai It Up. Thanks for hooking up the extra food guys!! I love their food and esp their tom yum soup. But lm biased cause l never had bad tom yum soup. Its my favorite of all soups. Then Lobster Bisque. Matt and Amy came to visit afterwards to chill. Im glad they’re coming over again as they’ve been so busy the past yr w the food truck.

Just mad gaming and youtube. Had the hookah lit and had a chill night all night. Ended the night watching My Hero Academia into Monday.

12/5 Monday got up and bummed. Got Chick-Fil-A and and had a bum evening watching Curb your Enthusiam while stuffing face. Played mad Street Fighter V, warming up for NEC and got on COD Warzone 2 w Steve and we got our 2nd duo win together. Yayyy lol. We’re not the biggest killers but we work really well together. More food and more Curb Your and then late night watching My Hero Academia and SpyXFamily w Jeremiah.

Tues took a day trip to visit Dan and good hanging w him tho the weather was ass. Happy Birthday homie!!! Got Taco Bell and had a chill night just eating, hookah and Cabinet of Curiousities. Didnt really do much else besides bullshit online. Super late night, more anime, catching up on Boruto and yoo.. Kuruma…… l had to hold back tears.

Weds got up late and hit Ryan’s new studio to help unload mats. Hype for his new place to start up. The space is great. Afterwards, hookah and chilling for a lil then me and Ryan got JB Dawson’s. Stuffed face and god l love that place. Had a great dinner and then back to my house for Chainsaw Man. Finally starting it. Matt and Amy came through too. Chill night watching 3 episodes. Later got on Warzone 2 w the guys for a few games and then Street Fighter V late to practice for NEC. Ended the night doing mad Pokemon reading on playing Singles and Doubles. Still figuring out my team. Its a lot of work. Luckily, lm paying a friend $15 per pokemon cause building perfect Pokemon is a pain in the ass.

Now your moment of Hack.

One Punch Man. How typical. This is the kinda guy that would sing The Final Countdown at karaoke.

Late.
