Update on the Apartment Hunting

Ok, this is long overdue because we found one like a day or two after the last post. It's definitely one of the better ones we saw. We get our two parking spaces and alot more space than I ever expected. J loves it and that's all that matters to me. You're probably wondering if it's luxurious and my answer to that is of course it is!

Other Stuff

We went to like our 6th wedding for 2006 to see my friends from Lighthouse, Stevanus and Shinyi, tie the knot. We have 3 more weddings to go to (that I know of for sure) before J and I tie the knot. I think we're the final cap-off for 2006. Since we got engaged, we know 4 couples that got engaged after us and will be married before us. I think the 8 month engagement was a pretty good pace for us. The planning hasn't been that stressful at all (not counting the first couple weeks).

Anyways, back to the wedding...here are some pics we took while at the reception in downtown L.A.

This pic is me and my buddy, Brian. There are two things you may find unusual about this picture: 1) I am the short one in this picture and 2) the other guy is Asian. For those of you reading who don't know how tall I am and may need a frame of reference, I am 6'2" (but the shoes I wore that day make me 6'3"). Brian is 6'11". Now I know how all those people in college felt who told me their neck gets sore when they talk to me for too long. Brian is easily the only guy I look up to at Lighthouse, haha. Thanks for indulging me for this picture, Brian.




















We saw this walking around the block near the reception. It just begged for a photo op. Chinatownland??? It's a good thing that sign was protected by a fence. Otherwise, someone could steal such a valuable piece of Chinatown tourism.















This was after we came back from the gas station for a quick snack in their convenience store. The cashier called out my tie and gave me props. That was a surreal moment. I don't think I ever got a compliment from a gas station attendant especially on how I was dressed. I said thanks, but I really must give all the credit to J, my fashion consultant. Pretty much every time I look good is due to J and every time I look bad is cuz of me. ;p Well, except for that one time J gave me that haircut, haha. Sorry J.



Of course I'd still let her try again.
