After studying, I headed over to The Shop. After I got there Mike Aldea stopped by to help with a transmission. He pulled up in one of the company cars...


This car was sick... it was quiet and fast, reminded me of a space ship. Not much to say about it, looks better than a Lotus, easier to get in and out of, and its fully electric. 109,000 and a 1-2 year waiting list.




I apoligize for the pictures, they were from my iPhone.

Hello!

Just a quick entry about what has been happening this week...

Clinicals have been tiring for me, I have been napping when I get home and then I hit the books. Roni's car was recovered in Oakland, his motor and trans were gone as well as the interior. My dad is in town also, hopefully I can pick up my 24in iMac. Also Kirstie's BDay is coming up. I got her a CAL diploma frame... 160 bucks... WTF!!! anyways here is a pic for all to enjoy...

Goodbye Purple MONSTER

Roni's car was stolen from Hayward a couple of days ago. Hopefully they find it, but as many know if its been a couple of days with no word from police, you know what happened to it... Sorry Roni =[

on another note, I'm beat... school is getting tiring, but clinicals will be starting in about a week. I got a little sick today, but stayed at school. I can't miss a day unless I want to do some major make up work. I threw up about 3 or 4 times and didn't really pay attention after class. I don't know if it was the energy drink I had or some food, but it F*&%ed me up. Well TTFN!

Class Video

So we made an awesome class video for our presentation, I think we were the only group with a perfect grade on it... yea damn proud of that!!! anyways, I hope there is more to come.



On another note, I think I am experiencing my first burnout from school. It has only been 4 weeks into the school year, Nursing Fundamentals is absolutely draining. M-F 8-3 sometimes 4. So if you guys don't see me thats why, everyday I am at Barnes & Nobles, studying and reading. I don't have a job, still trying to appeal my unemployment, but so far no success. I don't have much anymore in terms of money, but I am getting by. This is only the beginning for me...

NCP @ Fiesta Filipina

So for extra credit some classmates and I went to the Civic Center in SF. It wasn't as big as it used to be years before, but there was good food, good music and great company. We were doing some promoting for school, raffling off prizes, and just hanging out. It's wierd only 4.4% of nurses are male, today there were only 2 or 3 girls when we showed up, at about 12 it was just me, Joel, McKevin (McLovin), and Mr. Next Phaze - Rich...

FREAKmont!!!

The Shop was a vendor at the 10th Annual Freakmont meet at Lemans Karting in Fremont. I believe at the raffle Matt gave out 3 oil changes and 1 alignment. Nice day, free food, and PICTURES. The meet was of moderate size and Lemans was doing some cheap rates for racing. Matthel's show stopping FD was out doing its job, promoting The Shop, along with Matt's Z32, Maxima, and Jeff's S2K. An friend of mine was also a vendor, photoshootmycar.com, doing his thing. He brought out the New 370Z (this thing is awesome in person), R33 GTR and he Matrix... Enjoy

as always more pics on my Flikr

Busy Busy

WOW... I am just so busy with school... I go to school in the morning and head straight home after... reading, HW, and studying is overwhelming. As this week is coming to an end, I can say that this next year will be life changing. I have skill labs coming, and clinicals in a month. My scrubs will be in next week as well as my stethescope. I am actually doing it, moving towards a career... It is exciting and discouraging at the same time.

So I am uploading a couple of pics right now from the drag day...again...

Memorial Day Drag Races

I know I haven't updated in awhile. Nursing school is hectic, I really should be asleep right now, but I can't, M-F 8-3 (sometimes 4 or 5). Nothing much has been going on, I have been trying to keep up with my photography so here is my next entry here...

The Shop crew went over to Infineon for some drag racing. Matt, Lawton and Roni were running there cars. Jermz and Rob tagged along and Jeff, Jieun, and Lewis met us up. On the way to the track Roni got pulled over. CHP got him for lowered vehicle, modified exhaust and intake, unreadable front plate, and expired tags... J/K he only got the exhaust ticket, he was nice enough to let us go with warning for speeding. First runs were not so great, Lawton ran a 15.4, Roni stalled and ran a 18.7 ( video is available ), and Matt was stuck in the 12.1 range. Roni finally broke into the 14's, lawton is still a tenth or two faster, and Matt should be hitting low 11's...

ENJOY!!!





Roni and his all time worst launch and 1/4 mile time...


as always more photos are at www.flickr.com/photos/c2photos/

Cruise to Santa Cruz

So the S2Ki guys and The Shop guys took a cruise down Highway 9 to Santa Cruz.... we ate chilled and came back up. Funny thing we saw was a seal pup that jumped into a couple's kayak. At first we thought it was a dog, but upon closer inspection it was a seal. Also, I got bored painted my wheels white and I have a new exhaust...
