Christmas 2015

Of course I flew home for Thanksgiving as well, but that was quite the whirlwind trip in itself.  I flew in Wednesday afternoon and left Sunday morning – just long enough to get some Thanksgiving turkey!  I was able to spend time with my family and nephew, which made for a great trip.  I flew…

Homecoming III

Beware- lots of photos. It was a long time in the making, I remember signing up in 2013 and paying 9 months in advance.  Every 5 years a guy puts on a “Homecoming meet” at Honda’s Headquarters.  Many, many S2000’s show up (It’s an s2000 event) and it’s a pretty big ordeal.  I made my…

London 2015 – Working My Way Around

I decided to head to the War Museum, which was heavily centered around WWI and made mention of all the other wars that Britain fought… And it’s interesting how they just sort of gloss over the fact that Britain owned a bunch of colonies and had a reputation of brutalizing any of them that didn’t…

Winning Those Awards

My dad asked if he could take my car to a car show, and being the guy who loves car shows, I couldn’t say no!  So posted up a few pictures on his blog, which you can find here: Dad’s trip to a carshow! The best part?  We won third place best foreign car!  Maybe…

Home Life: A Chronicle of Food

It’s only fitting that when I’m back in the states most of my posts are about food, right? I thought I would knock out a few days worth of posts by posting everything in one entry.  And yes, it’s mostly just food.  😀 Day 1 at home: Ribs While Korea has pork, they lack real…

San Luis Obispo

On Monday Vicky had to work and I was on PTO, so once she went to work I followed and brought her pastries at her work for both her and her coworkers.  They are these little strawberry and creme filled pastries that are literally to die for.  I’m not one for hawking places I visit…

McLaren, Sushi, and Family

Driving through Newport Beach, I remembered that a dealership had a McLaren P1 on display awhile ago, and I was curious if it was still there… As I was parking two guys in an Evo drove by and said they had a P1 there, so that finalized it! These are the new 650S’s that everyone is…

Cars and Coffee: Prime Lens Edition

For years I have been attending a car show that occurs weekly in Irvine.  When I was in school I didn’t go as much, but after I graduated I was going fairly regularly.  It’s a free car show that anyone can go to.  It starts at 5:30-6AM and goes until about 8:30AM.  We usually get…

Back to the States I go!

On June 20th I left Korea to come back to the states for a week. I started my journey at 12pm Korea time, Friday June 20th.  Keep that in mind. 12,000W and a 2.5 hour bus ride later, I found myself at the airport.  I had checked in on my phone, but since I had…

Hobbies

After being in architecture school for so long, it took me awhile to find “hobbies” again.  It’s sort of like being in prison for 5 years.  Sure, you can dream you will get out and get your life back, but you can’t actually get your life back until you leave.  That’s the way it was…
