^ Me & Manny Vargas, didgeridoo jammin' at Sandy Beach!!!
People describe me as outgoing, talkative, loud, funny, unique, nice, and fanatical (when I take on a new sport or hobby, I get REALLY into it)
I am originally from Campbell, California, which is a suburb of San Jose. As I was growing up, I was into Breakdancing which I ditched for Skateboarding which I later ditched for Bodyboarding. Bodyboarding became my identity & focus in life which propelled me to study hard in school so I'd get good grades and transfer to a university near the beach. Well, it worked. I went to UC San Diego, and after graduating, I made San Diego my new home. In 1999, I discovered Bali. After 4 summers (totalling over 6 months) of surfing great waves with warm water, I decided that to make the tropical island thing a permanent part of my life, so I moved to Hawaii in January 2003....

Who I'd like to meet: I am very thankful to have so many great friends, and I'm always down to make new ones. If you would like to be my friend, I just have 3 requirements:
1) You don't post multiple stupid bulletins on a daily basis. I don't care if you're bored, what you had for dinner, or if you're desperate for someone to leave you a comment!! This includes bands, clothing companies, whatever.
2) You're smart enough to keep your page from getting hacked, of if you are the frequent unfortunate victim of myspace identity theft, you at least have enough brains to periodically change your password. Please don't 'post' any comments that offer me free ring tones, $500 gift certificates to Macys, or fake videos of girls making out.
3) You actually have a default image.
If you answered yes to all 3 of the above requirements, then I welcome you to add me as a friend. Come & join the crew......

This coming Thursday July 10 some friends and I are going to go see the movie “SURFWISE” at the Doris Duke Theater located at the Honolulu Academy of Arts. Starts at 7:30p.m. Located at: 900 South Beretania, Honolulu, HI 96814
I’ve heard that it’s a really cool movie, (it’s not a surf movie) but more about philosophy and living zen. So please come along for some good clean fun! lol
SURFWISE Like many American outsider-adventurers, Dorian “Doc” Paskowitz chased a utopian dream. He abandoned a successful medical practice for the nomadic life of a surfer. Unlike other American soul searchers like Thoreau or Kerouac, Paskowitz took his wife and nine children along for the ride.
Ahhh, looks like you had a front row seat again huh? Nice nice. About 20min before the show even started I almost turned around and walked home. Such a full on retard scene down there for events like this. It was more crowded than New Year's! Well I hope you enjoyed the show. Bye for now.
Da Secret Sauce makes its Debut at "Its Chili in Hawaii" On Saturday June 28, From 12:00 pm till we run out. I'll be passing out samples with our Famous Steak and Kailua Pig. Da Secret Sauce will be sold for $8.
