Snowboarding, Funyuns and HIMYM in Winter Park

Me, Zaid, Joann and Steven at the Dub-P…Trisha had already left the day we took the pic =( So a couple of weeks ago, I went snowboarding in Denver with Steve, Zaid, Trisha and Joann. I fell a total of 116 times and got dragged by a short-distance ski lift whilst being laughed at by...

From “Speed Racer” to “American Idol”

So I just got back from a screening of Speed Racer and I don’t really want to write a review about it right now because I am too lazy. (yes I saw an early pre screening – one of the perks of the job that makes up for low pay) But I will say that...
