Still not asleep. Probably because I woke up at 2:30pm today. Anyways, I feel like I've been living like a vampire lately. Being masochist only provokes me to act more like one..but I seem to notice I do a lot of my best thinking and performances at night: I always look forward to doing something whenever the sun begins to go down, I tend to be more active and go to Barnes & Noble and read Health and Fitness magazines, New Tattoo magazines and other MMA magazines until it's time for me to go to the gym and train capoeira. I'm so glad I don't go back to school for another month because I'm still enjoying getting 7+ hrs of sleep every(night)day now. I feel better during the week and am showing for it in many ways. My skin's a lot more clearer now because I'm getting more sleep and working out more with plenty of sleep (at least in my theory since I know I produce more growth hormone during my sleep which promotes so much health to my bones and muscles and other tissues throughout my body). I know loading trucks may not be considered a workout but I think of it as my light cardio warm down that lasts 4-5 hours. Picking up 1000 boxes that could weigh anywhere from 1-150lbs is no joke especially when you've worked out at the gym for 2 hours training capoeira, hitting the weights, ab training, and maybe a 3 mile run that same night (if I'm feeling like I'm on BEAST mode) haha. My body is showing for it too: I'm down to 185lbs compared to 194lbs a couple weeks ago. My parents were shocked when I told them how much I weighed, especially knowing that I'm only 5'7 (on a good day) But it's mostly muscle mass and some water weight so I'm not trippin. I'm starting to see my abs again and can tell that my overall core strenth is a lot stronger than it was last month. I'm training capoeira just like I used to when I took Berinjela's and Xango's classes on base and in Oakland and Vallejo.
Only one more month of freedom and it's going to be great. I think the week of my birthday (August 19th) I'll be starting my new shift which will be 5pm to ~ 10pm. And I get a promotion too =). A whopping 50 cents but I always appreciate my health benefits @ UPS. side note: I still need to make an appointment for a check up because of my daily headaches- hopefully it's nothing major and just a regular case of "I hate doing this shit so I'll give myself a migraine" type of headache. haha.
I got 2 tickets for next week's Rex Navarette stand up show @ Pepperbelly's in Fairfield for Lila and I. I can't wait to see him with my baby cakes! Rex is hella fucking funny and I've been an OG fan since 2000?....I remember my freshman year at Fairfield High when the teachers in our district when on strike and all of my friends and I spent our last 4-5 weeks of the school semester watching nothing but movies in the ROTC room and going swimming whenever we wanted too. I think it was Alex? that introduced me to his cd " husky boy " and I was crackin the fuck up. His oriental aisle, yoko john and ESL jokes were epic. Anyways, I can't wait to see him and it's gonna be w/ my Fairfield friends too!
My birthday is coming up and I'm gonna celebrate it @ BLUSH in Sacramento Thursday, August 20th. Even though my 24th birthday is the 19th..I'm still down to celebrate it on Thursday. Matt texted me earlier and said " You're not gonna celebrate ya B-day in frisko?" I almost forgot about how much fucking fun I always have at SF clubs but I've been so MIA from the club scene the past year I couldn't forget. I've been so distant from the clubs that I'ma celebrate it twice..and I'm going to BLUSH on that Thursday and some frisko club on that Saturday. I might go to suite 181 since I've always had a crackin ass time there. And I want to take my baby out there because that's almost the only "COOL" frisko club that she hasn't been too (even though I heard suite 181 turned in east oakland and is filled w/ nothing but yadadas who mean mug you at the club and musty dudes trynna holla at girls...) haha.
Capoeira.....................
Video party this Sunday! I can't wait because I've been missing my CDO FAM BAM for so long. They really are my family and always have my back no matter what. Everyone is like the brother, sister and cousin I've never had especially with the fact that we all understand each other in our own ways and no matter how long any of us may not see each other, the next time we see each other again it's as if we saw each other the day before. And for this brotherhood I've been a part of since December 2004, I will forever remain greatful. I'm gonna crash at Beri's house on Saturday and get some training down- I have to know hella sequences for my next belt (YELLOW CORD!) and am physically and mentally ready. I've been working on my cardio so much and weight training to get my strength back up again that I'm in the perfect shape to learn more capoeira tricks, kicks and all kinds of shit. LOGAN IS READY SON! ORRAHH!!!
Anyways I've been watching hella LA INK lately and still can't wait to get my next tattoo which will hopefully be around my birthday of my last name, MENDOZA on my abs like a true mexican! Orale !!!!.......
VIVA LA RASA HOMITOS....
