I got an e-mail alert a while ago saying that the Brass Tax are playing at the Satellite, it took me a moment to figure out why that band sounded familiar to me – I went to school with the bassist!

Camping day 2
Today was one of those mornings when I needed to get up to go to the restroom but waited it out as long as possible in the hopes that someone else would be awake and start the fire.
Someone had seen something on some TV show how they made scrambled eggs in a ziploc bag, it wasn’t super quick, but we had fun doing it.
We went for a hike after breakfast, there wasn’t really a marked out trail, we just picked a direction and started walking.
Someone managed to get me in a photo! Classic “rest on one hip” pose, I really should stop doing that.
Came back to the site and played Cards Against Humanity.
Camping in Angeles National Forest
Camping last Thanksgiving was cold, but a ton of fun, so we wanted to do it again this year. We picked a site little closer this year though, only a couple of hours away.
We stopped to take a photo of the view going up the hill, I was trying to recover from a twist and turn car ride and couldn’t be bothered to get out of the car.
We made it to the campground and this was clearly a sign that this was our spot!
I was responsible for Friday dinner, I made the classic Swedish Fish!
Thanksgiving
I was considering going to ski a half day at Big Bear today before the Thanksgiving dinner, but I didn’t really feel it was worth it when I had no one to go with, only one slope was open and they would still charge me close to full price.
Me and Mika went for a bike ride along the beach instead.
It didn’t take us long before we got restless and ended up here.
Turkey dinner with the United Colors of Benetton family.
The Beer calendar is back!
A lot of people are doing it this year!
Pasadena Designer Con
Went to Designer Con in Pasadena.
Found Martin!
It was a lot of people there and I got tired, but we saw Barrel Man! Apparently this is a big thing in the Philippines and can be found in touristy gift shops etc. Adorable!
Halloween
My least favorite American holiday is here! I’m getting more and more used to it though, and I get to hang out with my friends and that always makes me happy!
I’m one of those people that don’t think kids should eat the nasty American candy so I bought a bag of fruits and forced my friends to decorate them with scary faces.
We made dessert pizza, super yum!
El Segundo Brewing Company
Me and Mika took our bikes down to El Segundo Brewing Co for some beer tasting.
Started our 1h ride home before we got to drunk so we could get home before the sun set.
Beer making
These two are making beer, I came over just to watch them work.
Oktoberfest
My friends are pretty awesome. And also, we don’t like other people, so we throw our own Oktoberfest party so we don’t have to interact with people we don’t know.
