Photo Bombing in the City

Last Sunday was one of the best days I had this year. My cousin from the Philippines is here for a short time, and I wanted to take her out. Like many of us in my family, she is really into photography, so her request for me was to go photo bombing in San Francisco. When I climbed into bed the night before, I turned on my TV to channel surf. On Comedy Central, one of my favorite movies was showing [Beerfest]. Before I knew it, I watched the entire movie and I noticed it was 2:30 in the morning. I set my alarm to wake me up at 4:30, so when the movie ended, I figured I should just stay awake.

I picked up my cousin at 6 AM so we can catch sunrise at the Golden Bridge. We just arrived on time, and hopefully she was able to take shots she will enjoy. We had 2 hours to kill before any businesses opened, so we decided to eat some breakfast at Lucky Chances. On the way to the Casino, I got pulled over because I didn’t see a stop sign. Even though it really sucks that I got a ticket, my cousin and I still laughed about it.




After breakfast, we picked some spots that are touristy. We went to Legion of Honor, Fisherman’s Warf, and Coit Tower. We definitely had a great time at the tower. When my cousin set up her camera on top of my car, a couple decided to stop right in front of the shot. What was extremely funny to both of us is that this couple could have stopped 2 feet left or right, and our picture would have turned out “perfect” but the question till this day is, “Why in front of us?” Well after all that laughing, we drew some attention to us.



Because of the attention we drew, a random guy came up to my cousin and I to ask us some questions. He claims he’s not from Earth, and wanted to understand what emotions humans feel, like love, hate, happiness, sadness, etc. I don’t believe he is an alien, but was doing a show because he was being videotaped and I signed a disclaimer after our conversation.


When I get a chance, I’ll post the pictures I took of last Sunday’s photo bombing. The pictures on this blog were provided by my cousin.

Worst Parking Job Ever

Check out this person trying to park the car. Seriously, it's not hard to park a small car into a big parking spot. Keep your eyes on the time. The best part is the end. Enjoy.

Grand Canyon 2009 Video

Posting this video was a big hassle. This part of the blog will be my rant about Youtube/Warner Music Group (WMG). Since early 2009, Youtube has been deleting/suspending accounts, or removing the sound on videos. WMG claims that they have been losing business because people have been posting videos/songs of Warner artists. I can see why they are doing it because of those stupid idiots who just post music on Youtube so people can convert them into MP3s and put them on their players. For people like me, I like to use the music to make videos and post them on Youtube. I also lost my favorite artists who does covers of songs because of this change. Because of this situation, I had to create a new Youtube account just incase I get in trouble and they delete me. WMG needs to get their stick up their a** out and let the public post their videos on Youtube.

Well now that my rant is over, here is the video of my trip to the Grand Canyon. I had to use Megavideo because they haven't been affected by the WMG yet. I'll post the Youtube version and the Megavideo version just incase Youtube decides to delete my account.

I posted pictures on 2 previous blogs, but with a video, you can experience the trip in a different way. I was inspired by my cousin, Leah to edit my video the way I did. I hope you enjoy this video.

Doomsday

Doomsday is over! I just had my anatomy exam for unit 2, and I feel releaved it's over. I've been studying for this exam for two weeks, and I am burnt out. The question is, "Did I pass!?!" I feel that I did, but it's just a matter of what grade I earned. Hopefully I got an A on my exam and lab practical. I knew a lot of the material on the exam, but just a few that I was uncertain of... Only time will tell. I'm just glad that it's all over with =).

Anatomy

It's almost the end of unit 2 in my anatomy and physiology class, and I'm super stressing out. Let me know if you agree with me... Monday is my anatomy exam and it's on the skeletal and muscular system. Last week, I started memorzing 206 bones and the major landmarks (the skull alone has 100+ landmarks). This week, we learned the muscles of the human body, which we have to know about 50+ for the exam. Not only we have to know the name of it, but we have to know the origin from it starts and where it ends; also what each muscle does.... GGGRRRR!!!! Why can't we split the skeletal and musular system into two different exams? The whole day today, my fellow classmates where expressing how stupid it is to have both these systems in one exam. Do you agree?

On top of this hell week, I have a physiology exam the following day, and I haven't even started to study for that. I'm putting all my time in anatomy. The good news about next week beinging over is that I won't have two exams on the same week till finals.
