reuniting and reconnecting with REAL-ness

i must say that i am truly thankful and just so grately honored to be remembered by awesome people that ive met in my life. I never thought i would be somewhat remarkable to someone. and it makes me so happy to know that they had me in their hearts all these years as one of their friends.


I cant believe this but I re-united with Cody!!!!!! he is just the sweetest good-hearted guy with the most genuine personality and i was able to reconnect with him thru facebook and we got coffee!! he is back in redondo beach and with the help of Becky being our communication via internet, we got in touch and it was just great. nice, chill, laid-back. he is so much mature but still the same guy with the big great smile. i was very happy he is doing so well.
And he kept this drawing i drew of him skateboarding signed '97 and he had it in a plastic cover and in perfect condition all these years.....! that means a lot.

so we both got an americano from coffee bean yesterday morning (high-fiving for the same drink & coincidence) and then had a real down-to-earth sharing of time. took a nice chill walk along the beach, caught up on each others lives and happenings, and was able to see Mike Rubino as well. wow, good times....highschool days....it was nice.

it makes me so good to be back home in CA.

i know more of where i can belong.




got to see my old College roomie, Lisa and her daughter Teagan(and her hubby, Justin) good times at Tapioca Express. haaa memories.


Justin's Graduation from Loyola marymount Law! woo hoo!! Ali and Brian Park, long time no see. wow.


met up with my buddies, Jed and Julius, wow...been a long time. has it been since 2005!?

昔の友達との再開。よかったよ。。。大人になってから 昔の可愛いかっこよさよりも ちょこっと大人でしたね。外人の成長はこわいですよ、以外に年をすぐ取るしね、エヘヘ。笑顔は昔のまんまでした。
