Thoughts x ZH Comic #3!

So I just watched Cannibal Holocaust and that shit was pretty disturbing.
I couldn't stomach the animal scenes and the rape/murder scenes were pretty demented and gruesome.
I guess I couldn't take the animal scenes more because they were real...
Passed the animal cruelty scenes, overall it is a movie that analyzes serious and well-made social commentary on the modern world as well as the forgotten world.
The thing that gives this movie it's quality is the sense of realism portrayed through the documentation reels.
It's hard to say it's a bad film...I guess you have to look passed the repugnant images to see how the film conveys a more critical point.
It's probably a film you wouldn't watch twice but would watch just to see what all the controversy was about.
Good horror film, probably one of the first that introduced the 1st person view with the hand held camera.

In other news, sources tell me Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li was pretty bad. I could only imagine...some say the movie with Van Damme was better than Chun-Li...which means...it must be pretty horrible.
To be honest it doesn't even look like a Street Fighter movie...it just looks like a high octane action film with the title of Street Fighter in the credits.
And another film that doesn't look good is Dragon Ball: Evolution...sorry to say I'm not hyped for that film but who knows it might exceed my expectations...but at the same time...eeeeeeeeeh.
The movie I'm really hyped about is motherfucking Watchmen!!! That movie looks amazing, I don't want to expect too much from it because the comic book itself was incredible. But so far the trailer and movie clips look good. I hear they're going to change a few things in the movie from the comic including the ending...doesn't mean it's a bad thing.

Recently at every session, I continue to injure different parts of my body..but in ways I feel good because I'm trying new stuff or I'm practicing things wrong haha...but hey the first breakers didn't have a B-boy manual to follow lol.
My knee, my elbow, my wrist, my neck, and somehow my ribs hurt haha. I haven't been this injured since I was starting out and trying to adapt my body to the floor.
I kind of feel in that spot again..trying to test the limits of my body even further. Takes time and practice like all things but I'm having fun through the process. Still striving, still learning.
That being said, I'm mainly just dedicating my time to practice and improving myself. Competing doesn't seem much of an initiative at this point. I mean I'll enter a few jams here and there but not really with the intent of winning, just to have fun.
Greed clouds the mind.

But anyhoo I'm just blogging out of boredom really...I'm hungry and here at work. I would take class but I'm sick and my body is still sore from the injuries.

And I think it's safe to say, I'm broke again -_- My source of payment at this time is mainly through my credit card but I'm trying to avoid using that as well since I just bought my school books...not even all my school books, I still have to buy one more. I hate how books are so expensive. But anyway...till my next paycheck comes I need to restrain my spending.

Oh yeah and this is a blog about nothing really..like I said I'm bored and like to blog random thoughts in my head from time to time like any other person.
Some like it, some don't, you go fuck yourself 0_0

I'LL BE BACK!

..I'm back!
ZH is back in the third installment of the series!


I got a fucking 48 dollar parking ticket...WTF OBAMA!

Indiscriminate Introspection...2

I got up at 6 am today...I haven't gotten up that early since July 19, 1972 when I was over in Nam.

Anyway I got up today even before my dad 0_0 but he saw me just when I was leaving haha.
I started school on Monday and to be honest as much as I hate school, I'm glad I'm still going. I love to learn (except math) even if it's a struggle..cause knowing is half the battle....G.I. JOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEE...anyway I just wish I could have gotten more classes I wanted.
Still trying to add more and work out my schedule but things seem to be working out between work and what not.
It feels so weird to be up this early...it's only 9:37...around this time I'm probably sleeping and won't get up for another 3 or 4 hours haha.
But I have been trying to go to sleep earlier and getting up earlier...it feels like you did a lot more in your day even if you didn't haha.
Later on I got work and stuff but that's not for a while...
I'm getting sick or am sick...I can't tell if it's just allergies or a cold but I've been sneezing a lot lately and blowing yellow shit out of my nose daily so it's probably a cold. I hope I can stop it before the infection spreads 0_0
Hmm in other news...the Chul Jin Martial Arts tournament was on Sunday. They had a demo team competition which was something new and I though that was very cool and new because usually it's an exhibition just to showcase but this time...it was a BATTLE! ooooohhhhh...0_0
So my dad asked to organize a small routine for it...I rounded up some students...and by some I mean three and myself which added up to 4 >.< and we organized our show in 3 days hahaha.
But all in all it was fun and it turned out pretty good with a few minor mistakes.
Only 2 other schools competed in the demo...one was straight out the motherland..KOOOOOREA!!! and they only had 4 people as well.
We tied with Korea for 2nd place so you know what that meant...MUH-FUCKIN' TIE BREAKER BATTLE B-BOY!!!! They were doing airflares and shit and we was all like hell no and came through with that ZOOLOO ROCKSTEADY SHIT! CAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW!!! lol
You'd wish right? No. We just both got 2nd place and celebrated bitches! Hahaha
I'll probably post pics and vids later when I feel like it!

Then went to practice after.
Lately I've been so pumped to practice..I don't know why but who cares!

There's a hole in my pants that keeps getting bigger and bigger...probably cause of my super knee spins that I do at practice.
"Hey Yong why you go session in jeans?"
Me: Because it has too.. 0_0
And then I hit his face with a boiling coffee pot. I should start sessioning in sweats or track pants...or whatever they wear...cause ima beeee-boy!!! ... No but I really should...this is my second pair of pants I've ripped cause of dancing...but then again that's the fashion!!! My pants are probably more expensive now cause they're trendy n shit. Breakdancing + Ripped Jeans = SUPER AWESOME COOL!

You're probably asking me what's the point of this blog...and I'll get to that...cause this blog does have a meaning...a very strong and emotional one at that.
You know what I always noticed...how come Billy from Power Rangers was always a pussy when he was in normal mode but when he switched into Power Ranger mode he was super badass...and all the guys in normal mode were badasses anyway...
I guess cause he's a modest guy...I used to not like him as a child cause he was the virgin nerd of the group but now that I think of it...that state of mind seems to be the right way of thinking.
The other power rangers would all show off n shit in normal mode but not Billy...he would wait for the right time to morph AND then go Segal on their ass...except in the movie...he was badass in normal mode but that's the movie!
And don't give me that shit.."DUDE the first power rangers was filmed in Japan! They just cut scenes together with the American version!" I know that Rabbit!
My favorite Power Ranger was either the red ranger, green ranger and then it moved over to the Black Ranger cause that fucka could dance the shit out!

Look at him go!
But now I think the Blue Ranger has stepped up...it'll probably change again in the future anyway when I realize Billy's a pussy but for now...HE'S ALLLLLLL RIGHT.

Kind of reminds me of Bill Gates...that's probably who he was modeled after...

But BAM! Actually...his suit does looks pretty dope...maybe it's just cause I like the color blue...if I had to choose which color power ranger I'd be it'd probably be blue...but for media reasons they'd probably cast me as the Yellow Ranger for reasons I cannot explain >.>

PCC parking is ridiculous...even though I don't park in the structure...I have a secret spot where the roses grow and the children dance..dance the song of hearts!

This post was dedicated to all you people that like reading shit that wastes time...and I know you love it.
Just trying to update as frequently as possible with interesting stuff.. YEAH

On a side note my friend Tony completed the second comic in the Zombie Hunter series. PEEP IT! haha






I miss my girlfriend >.<

Happy Valentine's Day! + weekend

Boy oh boy am I tired but I did have a fun weekend ^_^
Saturday morning I woke up and went to work. Taught and helped two classes then I had to vamoose on out of there.
Drove home and got my things ready. I was packing up to visit my baybay down in Irvine.
Bought some flowers on the way and got there at about 2:30.
Had fun with the mrs. we went shopping around the malls in Irvine.
Just wanna say that Buffalo Exchange is fuckin' dope. They got a lot of cool shit for cheap...I definitely want to go there again next time I head to Irvine.
Anyhoo we ate at The Cheesecake Factory..the wait wasn't too bad. The food was fuckin' gooood and I finally tried the cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory...to be honest...it was fuckin' awesome. This must be what angels taste like 0_0
Anyway after we ate we continued to look around the shops and were supposed to go on the Ferris Wheel but it closed at 7 and we finished around 8 sadly. We never get to ride that fucking wheel! Next time for sure!!!
And we were supposed to go ice skating or bowling buuuut it was fuckin' coooold and we were pretty tired so we just headed back to her place and watched a movie.
Next day we got up and ate at Ihop! Motherfuckin' unlimited pancakes son! Hahaha we actually ate a lot..or I did...I don't give a fuck! My diet can take a break for this weekend!
Then we decided to work out...and man...I haven't ran that much since...forever hahaha I ran for like 45 minutes straight on the treadmill but it felt good to get some exercise after all that consuming.
Then we swam in the pool and chilled in the jacuzzi for a bit.
Now I want a treadmill and a jacuzzi haha shit's fuckin' tight.
Then got dressed and said bye to my babycakzoOoOrZzZz and made my way all the way to Riverside for my homie's birthday party.
Get there and it was pretty chill. It was good to see people that I haven't seen in a long while. Had fun.
Knocked out on the couch and woke up in the morning..I was the first one to wake up which was at like 10:45 haha.
Then I woke up everyone else with my loud knocking and screaming.
Then we decided to eat at...IHOP!!!! lol fuuuuuuuuuuuck hahaha and yes I couldn't resist the pancakes once again lol.
So I got some pancakes again but this time I didn't eat as many, got full faaaast.
Anyway after that drove home and dropped off some peeps and finally came home around 2:30.
Overall it was a fun weekend. I was happy to see my babe and friends.
No pics...which sucks cause this time I actually brought my camera but I fuckin' forgot to take pictures!!! hahaha oh well next time...if I remember =[
School starts soooooon!!! I'm half excited and half eh...mainly because I have morning classes and I am definitely not a morning person buuuut I'm sure it'll be fun. Wish me luck!!! Hahaha
Time to get back on the diet as well as practice ^_^

Oh and rain...go fuck yourself and die!!!

Stay up y'all
Peace!

Indiscriminate introspection

Blaaaaaah I feel like I'm getting fatter...I need to go on a diet and workout more...
Went to session today with Gary and Nica...before they were just chilling at my house...they made me eat Corn Pops and Hot Cheetos...pretty gross mix but I didn't think it was at the time so I ate and ate and ate and by the time we get to the session spot..I feel fuckin' heavy.
Session didn't go to well haha, I tried to just practice power buuut for some reason I just wasn't feeling it. Could be the floor...the floor at Hazard is always slippery for some reason..no matter what shoe I wear I never seem to be able to get a grip on the stage or gym floor which makes practicing flares and power harder. Also could have been the small snacks we ate before hand..whatever it was I just felt slow and not as hyped up to practice new shit but I'm sure that happens to everyone.
I'll be pumped up on Wednesday! Because this time I won't eat any junk food before session haha. Maybe I'll buy myself a Monster to crank my shit up to the level 11!
But anyway only session for like...an hour or hour and a half...not long and I didn't get anything done sadly...
So we went back to South Pasadena and decided to go eat and where did we go you ask!
..Carrows. Haven't been there in forever...I have a deep feeling about the Carrows in South Pas being racist because every time I go there it takes about 15-20 maybe even 30 minutes for them to take our order. People that are seated after us get their order taken and have their food arrive before we even get any service! So sometimes I have a negative view on the Carrows in South Pas but perhaps this time would be different because this time...we had a white kid...sorta lookalike which was Gary! We all need an ace in the hole...mine's Gary...
And what do you know we get service pretty fast! So since I decided I was going to go on a diet now...I ordered a salad haha! Nica ordered a steak...Gary also ordered a salad so she was the man of the evening hahahaha. I ate that shit RAW! lol
And sadly today was the last day I will be having soda...I've decided with the influence of Matt Tran, Amy, and Gary that I will put off soda for the rest of the year. Yes, yes I've added it to my list of resolutions...not sure if I will be able to pull through but with Obama on my side...I CAN DO ANYTHING!!!
Anyway so we finish eating and Nica drops us off at my house and then I drive Gary to his pad.
We were supposed to play fuckin' Left 4 Dead but for some odd reason his XBox 360 wasn't working right which sucks because earlier in the day he was playing it with Nica. So we ended up playing Call of Duty: Worlds at War or whatever..pretty fun even though we kept getting killed and I kept shooting all my teammates buuuut whatever.
Then drove on home and took a shower and here I am blogging for no potential reason. Perhaps it's because some people feel that the only reason they should update their blog is because of a significant event that occurred in their life of some sort. But today I just feel like writing...like the old days with the kids and the xanga...I recall so many countless pointless posts I wrote..just about things on my mind, things I did, or just random shit. Funny..we had so much time on our hands in our days of youth. WHAT? FUCK YOU!
Anyway did anyone watch the Superbowl!? Cause I didn't! 0_0
Hahaha you're gonna say, "Cause you went to the jam on Sunday?!" and I'm gonna reply, "No! Just because I didn't feel like it!" Haha
To be honest, I don't really follow up on Football nor any sport anymore...you know what I did on Sunday? Absolutely nothing...and it felt good to just rest and let my mind wander into oblivion.
Why didn't I go to the jam? Well I guess the most legitimate reason would be I have no cash, another reason would be I didn't have anyone to enter with...but I guess the most honest reason would be because..I just didn't feel like it haha.
I finally got to see my girlfriend...it really feels like it's been ages since I've seen her. I haven't seen her since we last went to Irvine for Disneyland and our 2 year celebration! But we finally got to hang out.
Watched Taken and Slumdog Millionaire...yeah we movie hopped! MUH-FUCKIN' STRAIGHT STREET! Both good movies in their own way. Taken defines itself through it's genre...think of it as a Steven Segal movie...guy gets his daughter kidnapped, guy turns out to be ex-CIA, guy goes on a ass beating spree killing anyone who crosses his path, guy rescues daughter and lives happily ever after! Now replace Steven Segal's face with Liam Neeson and you got Taken!
The movie had a good pace...beginning was a bit slow but I personally like that timing because you anticipate the conflicts within the film more. Right when the shit hits the fan, the movie has a good flow.
Although the film follows a repetitive formula: guy finds bad guy who tells him where another bad guy is and guy finds him and so forth but I feel that with all the complicated and stylish movies out today this is something the general audience needs at the moment; a straight-forward action/thriller, expect no twists nor crazy ending, just a "man on fire" type movie about a guy who will stop at nothing to get his daughter back.
Liam Neeson does a good job too. He doesn't fuck around in this movie and he pulls it off well. His style of fighting resembles Krav Maga..which suits his character..no flashy fight choreography or anything just straight raw hand to throat combat.
I was a little disappointed by the PG-13 rating because I know for a fact that this is an R rated movie in other countries...they even show footage in the trailers that didn't make the US cut that I was hoping for...Oh well I guess I'll wait till the DVD comes out.
But anyway, this isn't a bad flick..check it out if you got the time.

As for Slumdog Millionaire which is a completely different film in many ways was exceptionally good. And I guess you don't need to hear it from me because it's been nominated for 10 Oscars!
I read up on the movie to see what the hype was all about and it did have an interesting synopsis.
The film reminded me in many ways of the movie, "City of God" which is another one of my favorite films..only with less blood haha. Slumdog Millionaire is about a young man who is on the verge of winning 20 million rupees on the Indian version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire". After he gets accused of cheating, he is interrogated by the police and the film goes from past to present through a series of flashbacks to reveal how the protagonist knows the answers.
The movie is very well paced and keeps the viewer interested showcasing the protagonist's past and his struggles between family and love.
Definitely an interesting and good flick..CHECK IT OUT!
It's also dope cause it's the same director of 28 Days Later! So...YEAH!
Then Emily and I ate at Crane Sushi...mmmm good...NOM NOM NOM NOM!
And then yeah...cops are whack...fuckin' pigs!
What was this post about again? Why are you reading this?
