At some point in your life you have to be some sort of aficionado to some sort of transportation device. A lot of my friends are so heavily interested with cars and as a kid I was into it, but in a more naive sense. As I got older I lost interest and not care really just as long as it works and looks nice. They go out buy parts take things off and put them back on etc. I never really understood that until I got involved with bicycles. I can honestly say I know that feeling I guess. Ever since I got my bike which is a piece of shit with things stripping and breaking etc. It taught me more and more about my bike and the build. I've been riding for about a couple of months and I bought my fixed gear as a mode of transportation esp around the Seattle area, then eventually got into freestyling/tricking. I was always curious ever since my freshman year about the culture. Saved up some money bought a bike and started riding away. Bike parts aint cheap though, especially for paying what you get. I hope this Christmas I am in WANT for a new everything. I might even buy a new bike. If money only grew on trees. Especially if things are breaking on me and etc.

This is the build I want, Super clean and can take up a beating but $$$ fml

I plan to build a pure trick bike but I know its gonna take time and some money to finally complete one..awesome

I looked outside the window just now and I noticed the water started to ice just a tad bit. A few days ago when I woke up I took a peek out my window and I saw the leaves blowing and thought to myself, wow fall is actually here. Felt like just yesterday it was scorching hot and I'm on the beach in Maui or back up north with some friends skating and getting into some sort of mischief. School is back in effect and everyone has parted their ways and the fun ends. So this song pretty much sums up everything in my book



So 3 weeks has gone in Seattle and I have to say I've had some pretty interesting encounters like getting in the middle of a protest, stumbling into a commercial for Bank of America. I honestly wasn't expecting much coming to this school when coming to drinking and partying. Though there has been the keg at the Fountain bike run and other random PBR sponsored shindigs. But other than that its been pretty mellow, the halls quiet and the feint array of different music genres from room to room. Met a few awesome people over here who are pretty hardcore with their craft from music, dance and art/design. A majority of people here are unique in their own ways but some of the nicest people I've met. Cool, now I'm just ranting but anyways just felt like I needed to blog since the season was shifting...yup thats my blog time line now, every season one long post about my life lol. Well its almost 1am and I have one more assignment to finish

I just moved in the other day finally! I'm on 7th ave whattap! Its something I still have to adjust to. Not gonna lie, when my parents left I was like "so uh......what now?" for a little bit. Still getting the hang of living on my own. Looking forward to one thing though is that I'm bringing my board and fixie next week which I am pretty hyped on. Still kinda bummed that summer is over and school starts tomorrow but whatever. In the meantime chilling in my dorm making juice-pops and doing push-ups I have been playing music because I seriously will go insane if there is no music playing, why? Because I tried the whole no music dealy for an hour and my god that was the longest hour ever. Aside from chilling in my room I've been meeting a few people over here but it seems like everyone is always in there room. Anyways as semi-random this blog is here are my current jams so far.






I'm actually feeling this new Kanye jam!



played more than once within the majority of the day

Got ripped up on the sand while the waves pushed me down boogie boarding. On top of the trillion miles of walking on the sun and being sun burnt, I'm fine. Took some cool photos though.

Sirnikko is in Maui!

Still here in Maui and I really needed something like this to get away from everything. Honestly being here for my first time kind of brought a nostalgic sense of being back in the Phillipines. I mean from the greenery, the smell of all the food and to the kind humid atmosphere. I even say Maui is an organized "Phillipnes". I really needed this little get away from a more recent incident regarding my car. A few adjustments had to cut back a couple of days to our trip, hell we were not even planning on coming anymore due to my car being stolen. Speaking of my car, for those who didn't know. My car was stolen within the waking hours of 4am to 5am, just as we were about to get ready. My dad opened my garage asking me where my car went. I honestly did not know how to react. I mean c'mon honestly right now? Why not another time please? I seriously thought someone just move my car to just fuck with me. I couldn't believe what was going on, I mean WHY NOW?! So then long story short a few depressing hours of "Fuck no more Hawaii" and a couple of hours of napping. Police department called saying they found my car all the way on highway 2 just passed Snohomish/Everett area at some fishing area. The only reason why it was found was they ditched it to go steal another car. I can understand why cause my radio doesn't work HAHA! When we went to take a look at my car, I understood there would be things missing like my moms rosary, ornaments and even my rear-view mirror but still no idea if my shoes are still in my trunk, I find at when I get back to the mainland.

So far I've just been spending time with my family golfing, enojying shaved ice and just not caring about all the problems in life. Everyone here is so nice and outgoing and I FELL IN LOVE WITH HAWAIIAN BAKED GOODS! I am already a big fan of breads, cakes and desserts but oh man baked goods here are on a whole new level....ahh the good things in life! LOL
