First weekend in Vancouver, WA!

I’ve spent my first week & weekend in the Portland/Vancouver from Seattle. It’s nice being back in my ol’ hood! 🙂

I got a chance to hang out with some old friends and enjoy the new pool I was physced about! YES IT IS THAT GOOD! Man…Olympic Size swimming from 8am to 10pm! OK, this is a true utopia.

So… I’m also happy that I’ve almost finished Stargate Sg-1 complete season 1-5. Check it out!

(season 3-5 GOOD STUFF! – Why does this show R0x0r so much?) hahah

And Finally, after enjoying several hours of Stargate (while I work in the foreground) I decided to go visit my old hangout Ultrazone. I use to play serious lasertag back in the day…. I mean SERIOUS laser tag ok? Sheesh, I’m not even joking around here people.

Ultrazone was cool because we use to have “lockdown” parties all the time from 8pm to 3am. Lasertag can really be fun if you play with the right people. It’s sort of like an inexpensive paintball game. It really depends on the quality of the area though too… Ultrazone’s happens to have a great layout too.

(I still got the magic! #1 score for 5 games straight…woohoo!)

ahhhhh yeeeeeeeahhhh. Han Solo with the ~ 30,0000 score. Booya (does a little dance) Speaking of dance, I was really happy to find a Pump it Up at Ultrazone. Man….I’m gonna be there every weekend I swear. (Well not really….too much work to do of course. hahah)

As you can see, things are working out so far. I’m really enjoying the PDX life once again. It’s going to be a lot of fun. Anyway, until next time. Peace!

Last days in Seattle – Moving on!

Well, It’s a fresh new week!

I’ve now moved from Seattle to Vancouver. Yes indeed; enjoying life in southern Washington once again! However, not all is done yet. Hopefully, the move to my new permanent location will go well after returning from ACEN 2006 and E3.

What did I do for my final week in Seattle? I decided to walk around and enjoy life in the emerald city one last time. Here are some memories that I uploaded to my flikr page.
My beloved DDR 5th mix at Seattle Center. RIP!

Gameworks and it’s Sticky pads!  (2 were actually sticking at one point)  I actually got told that I couldn’t “freestyle” or do any handstands ever again. Oh well…It’s appearantly for “my protection”. (hehehe)

Xuxa strikes again!

Foy & I doing some picture taking….*cough*

Thank you to being a big part of my life for the past 5 years Seattle. I’ll certainly be back sometime soon.
Hello Portland/Vancouver…. I’m back and ready for action! 🙂

Take Me Back (LIVE!)

Performance!

Big Thank you goes out to:

John Mendenhall – He was up there rocking out with me the entire show!
Kid Whatever – followed up on Saturday with an amazing performance. I was even part of the ‘Conga line’ on the dance floor on Saturday!
Jon DMN – Helping with my setup and encouraging me to play at the event.
Ross H – For coordination of the whole event & getting things done.
My parents – Thanks joining in on the fun and making an appearance that evening!
In other news; I’ve decided to move from my home (of 5 years) here in Seattle, WA I’m in the process of figuring out my new home/destination (still up in the air actually). It’s very possible that I will be returning to the PDX area after living in Seattle for 5 years.

What does this change? Not much really… I’ll still be rock’n and doing what I always do regardless! 🙂 It’ll be nice to return to my Portland/Vancouver roots and get back into the southern Washington swing of things. I’ve already found an Olympic sized swimming pool that will be sure to see me daily! (evil grin)

ITG’s future is turning out incredibly well. I have no doubt that It’ll continue to progress like it has since day1. Thanks to everyone who’s been impacted by ITG so far. It’s been a pleasure supplying everyone with the fun that ITG really holds inside.

More news later!
