What is todays date?
I hate to admit that while I was taking this picture i was actually a little buzzed! This was taken at a shopping center, Plaza Mexico, in Lynwood, CA, I believe. I am not too familiar with the LA region, anything south of OC is ok but North of OC, im completely lost!
Directly behind me was a Merry-Go-Round. It was really spectacular. It had two floors, so you had the option of either on the bottom floor which had the stationary horses. The top floor had the "moving" horses, which was the one my nephew decided on!
If you just happen to be in the Lynwood area, and want a little taste of the Latin culture, I recommend Plaza Mexico! http://www.plazamexico.com/

B4&AFTR
Shown here is a picture of my grandmother, my mothers mom. this is one of the few pictures that are left of my grandmother. The photograph was is such bad shape, I myself, restored the photo as a gift for my mother. Apart from restoration, I also made some prints for my mother. This is one of my first restorations, which I had to do for one of my classes. I had an awesome time restoring the photograph, i wish i could get a few more to restore! so if any one you have some out there, go ahead and contact me and i will be glad to do it, of course for a small, negotiable fee! Well hope to hear from many of you! Take care and Good night!

Mahalo
In my own garden at home i found this gorgeous flower known as, Plumeria (not so sure on the spelling). A very beautiful flower that caught my eye, which apparently we have had for a while now. I love taking this style of pictures, especially when involving nature. i just hope people can enjoy it as much as i do!

Singing While at Work
On my trip to Michoacan, Mexico, i visited the island of Janitzio ( HA-NEAT-CEE-OH ). Visiting the island Required traveling by boat to the island of course! While getting on the boat the only seating available was on the sides of the boat and some wooden boxes. After everyone is seated there are various people boarding, from as young as 8 years old and as old as, well I am not even sure how old. What are they doing on the boat? Working. From selling you chewing gun, cookies, bread, chips, nuts, or even telling you how to say " I Love You" in their native language which is PUREHPECHA, a dying dialect famously known in the state of Michoacan. Apart from learning a dying dialect, there are also musicians on board of the boat, this is how they make a living, they ride all day in the boat from as early as it opens until it closes at about 6:00pm. so in some way or another they did their 8 hour work day, but just getting enough money home to have something to eat! Living in the United States i have seen how picky people are when it comes to eating, and the sad thing is they are picky about which hamburger joint they do or do not want to eat at, whether to eat at McDonalds or at Burger King. what has our society come to? Well i guess that does explain the massive amount of obesity in the U.S. so with that note: Whats for Dinner?

How many idiots?
The question is: How many idiots does it take to make this kinda of damage? the Answer: ONE!! Just one... let me tell you how this whole happened, going to work the day before Easter Sunday, as i am arriving to the last turn before i arrive to work. I pull in to the center margin, to begin a left turn, as i begin the left turn i can see out of the corner of my eye to the right, that a car is making a U-turn from the inside lane (not the center margin), which by the way is FUCKING ILLEGAL. Well luckily both parties had insurance. but thats not the part that get me furious. shhe still has the balls to say it was our fault!! you made the illegal Turn stupid!!! well i think im done venting.. for now!!
