today phillip took us to the shooting range. it was my second time ever to shoot a gun the first time being in 10th grade. This time i can actually hit the target where in 10th grade, hitting the target was almost impossible. The kick in shooting a 9mm gun is super strong. its like trying to hold your arms straight out from your body as a 20lbs weight is dropped on top of your palms. Benny, the gangsta rented a .45 caliber gun which had a little more kick than the 9mm. he shot it one hand, sideways, pointblank and every other position you can think of. he is a mafia leader in training. i must go back to the shooting range so i can get more into it and trade-in my semi-auto BB gun for a glock.

i had a awesome midnight workout tonight on legs. im so happy. i broke lots of plateaus and im not scared of going to failure on squats anymore. sometimes i feel nervous about dropping dead during squats or leg presses because thats what happens most of the time to weight lifters who go beyond what their limit is and i dont see people going to that intensity. my heart sometimes have these irregular heart beats after a set of heavy lifting and i wonder why that happens. it feels like a loss of pressure in the valves. i need to get a heart check up because it seems like the symptom is getting more frequent.

i just finished watching some movies like fargo and bring it on. have you ever seen red snow? If not, go check out fargo cuz there is a good scene where it shows how to make red snow. its a good movie because the crazy guy with the jacked up teeth from Con Air is the crazy guy in fargo. this movie is about a man hiring kidnappers to kidnap his wife for ransom money. he wants his rich father in law to pay the kidnappers and then after, splitting the money with the kidnappers. his plan goes wrong and he gets caught be the law.

bring it on is a racist movie where it talks about a white cheerleading squad versus a black cheerleading squad from compton. yea, the black team ends up winning cuz the white team just had to jack up their routine. so it was a sad ending for me because i would like to see the white team winning.

oh yea and i watched starship troopers.that movie sucked cuz its so fake and it talks about fake insect aliens fighting people in the future. the good part is looking at denise richards because she is pretty. she shouldnt even be in a movie like that. she belongs in a movie with beach attire.

I only have 3 more days of school and im off to spring break. the past week sucked because i only had 3 hours of sleep everynight doing ERP systems and an e-distribution site. no i dont wanna do this in the future. i wanna be part of the music business instead or the entertainment business.

i am 190 pounds now. finally. just 10 more pounds to go. but im not gonna stop. 200 is my goal. must eat more.

San Dimas, CA - Montana's

Brad Paisley is in town and as the youngest country musician to be inducted in the Grand Ole Opry, he is sure to attract large crowds; especially on the west coast. This was my 7th Paisley concert and definitely not the last. First time was at the Crazy Horse Saloon in Irvine, second was at the KZLA country cookout , 3rd was at the Ventura County fair, 4th was at the Lake Perris Fair, 5th was at the Anaheim House of Blues, and 6th time was at the universal amphitheater. Out of the 7 concerts ive had 3 backstage passes to meet him. He has been my favorite music artist since 1999 and I think ill settle on that decision for a long time.

So I got to Montana's around 6pm and he was set to play at 9pm. What did i do for 3 hours? yea line dance. well not the whole 3 hours but for about an hour combined since i dont know all the dances and others were partner dances. I ate at the bar and after, i just stood there looking at the people dancing. i am the only minority there at first, so i felt reluctant to dance. until about it was 7:30, more people filled the place and therefore i made it to the hardwood floor. then it seemed like all eyes were on me but later i fitted in. i must say there are good looking people in there, so todd and I are gonna go to Montana's from now on. No more Brandin' Iron. that place is for Kids. 9:15, Brad paisley started to play and before he came out, there were noises of crickets chirping, frogs croaking, and owls hooting. the place is dark except for the tiny lights that imitated the rustling of water. THen the place becomes lit and he comes out and guess what he plays: the fishing song. so appropriate. brad's pickin' skills on the guitar are incredibly fast. he has like 6 guitars and 3 of them are of paisley design, suitable to his last name. the twang on his guitars are as twang as nashville can get. hes not like other artists who decide to turn to a rock/pop style, instead he sticks to his roots and writes good ole traditional country music. not just traditional, his lyrics are amazingly creative and humorous. he often writes about how girls control men's lives and how they run the show. of course the girls in the crowd go crazy when he speaks of this. I left the show with 3 guitar picks the threw out, 2 directly to me the other i found on the floor. it says on the pick "you stole my ernie ball pick", and the other side with his name. he goes throughout the show, throwing out about 20 picks after he busts one of his famous 100mph guitar solos. yea i finally got one. I also have a Jim Beam T-shirt the DJ gave to me before the show. yes im happy and i like these good things happening to me going to shows by myself.

saturday: went to expo, went to hooters, then Dave & Busters

oohhh, hooters. we had a pretty latina who served us. her face wasnt made up like other porn star looking waitresses and she was the quieter of the others which was fine with me. i dont like women who are fake and porn star-looking. it was a cool place to hang out for single guys AND girls. im already dreading the days that go by without chicken wings. i must go again just as long as an ASIAN doesnt serve us. i will happily accept mixed asian/white/spanish servers.

at D&B benny paid for a $5 card and we ended up getting a $100 card. we felt like kids in a candy store. we played all the games we would never pay to play. benny can pass a shooting game with one life. that guy is gangsta. i ended up playing the vegas style game where you insert coins to make coins tip over the ledge. i didnt win money but i did win lots of tickets. i traded them for 2 shot glasses and gave one to benny for his generosity.

Friday & saturday: I arrived at the anaheim convention center around 3pm. Parking was $8, so then i set my goal to freeload at least $8 worth of supplements. Once i entered the building, i had to check-in. I gave an old lady my badge and she gave me a directory of exhibitors, a badgeholder to wear, and a bag made out of hemp. i guess the hemp bag signified the theme of the convention "natural products expo". By the way, all the security, workers of the convention dressed up in red suits, black slacks, and sailor-men caps sorta looking like mickey mouse attire. i think disneyland owns most of the city of anaheim because everything such as the fast food restaurants, bus stops, landscape are all dressed up.

once i entered the first hall out of a total of 3, i directed myself to the bodybuilding section to get me some protein. i headed to the EAS booth but i had to talk my way into getting stuff. you see, this expo is not an expo open for the public. everyone in the expo are businessmen ready to do some business with you. so everynow and then people would walk up to me because i was wearing a GNC manager badge. "hey why dont you try displaying our product in your store without any obligation?" i was like "um i have to talk to my boss." then, they would ask for my address and number, and my supplier, and since i dont work at GNC i would make up a fake address, telephone number, and fake supplier. sucks to them, i was only there to get free samples for myself. the expo wasnt even for getting samples either. most of the booths dont give out samples. so for me, returning to the same booth made me feel like i was a greedy little kid. often at times i would have to sneak my way in, dodging the workers at the booth so they wont recognize me.

the people in there were so into nutrition and healthy eating that all i hear were conversations of how this has too much fat, this has too much sodium, this is high in calories, etc. And looking at their complexion, they looked like crap.

in a couple hours, i racked up about 25lbs of drinks, vitamins, protein powders, bars etc. i drank so many samples of different liquids that i felt light-headed from walking and staring at the colorful carpet and displays. that place was huge; like the size of 4 football fields and i must have walked a couple miles each day. but it was worth it. total value of stuff jacked: approximately: $80

i didnt go to the club row dance and party because looking at the people in the expo, their ages ranged from 30-60. i wouldnt want to get the freak on with old farts.

next expo: mr olympia 2003 at the mandalay bay, las vegas.

thursday after we worked out, we went to yoshinoya to eat. phillip had some great tips on how to test your date to see if she is a keeper. the only one i knew of was the door-lock test where a guy locks his side of the car door on purpose to see if the girl would lean over and unlock the car for you. phillip has a better one and it also takes place in the car. im not worthy enough to tell you so ask phillip.

i found out that people at the 24hr fitness gym in industry thinks im on roids. yea its funny. my friend told me and he tells them im only eating tuna fish and to mind their own business. ive only been working out for 4 years and it took lots of trial and error tests to see how my body will respond. if only those people would do their own research, diet correctly and stop lifting beyond their ability will they see themselves grow. something else that i see is how people do not work on their legs. i see people with bigger arms than their legs. this makes them look like a chicken and it is proven how working out on your legs will improve your body's testosterone levels. this results in overall growth including upper body.

well at least this means im getting bigger.
