hello, for those who haven't noticed, for the past few days, I've been gone to Las Vegas to celebrate Thanksgiving. there were many things that I was greatful to have on this trip, and many petty things I really don't mind.

Aight, so we arrive at Vegas early Afternoon. I kinda got carsick on the what, six hour drive or somethin. It was only because we were finally watching V for Vendetta in the car.Its a pretty good movie, so if you haven't seen it yet, I suggest you go borrow it from Blockbuster or something and watch it.

anyway, well... the only reason why we were at Vegas in the first place was because my rich uncle and aunt, Tito Mendrei and Tita Cecile, brought us over. They rened out an awsome suite in Rio for my cousins and my family. Pretty cool place, we had a common room with my other uncle's family and my family had our own room. There were plasma screen TVs but the crappy part of it was that we brought our X box with us, thinking we would have a lotta free time. but when we went to plug it in, There was no channel for us to see our game, so that sucked alot.

after we crashed into our room and unpacked, Titio Mendrei and Tita Cecile invited my other uncle who came with us and my family to a Thanksgiving dinner at one of their friend's houses. Their friend was actually a performer of a Vegas show, Lani Misalucha and the Society of Seven. tito Mendrei and Tita Cecile are the producers of that vegas show. It was kinda strange eating at a stranger's house, but I was able to make new friends. We played some pool and stuff. It gave me a chance to improve my pool skill cuz i really suck.But that isn't all of it yet.Even though my brother anthony is now 17 and almost at his licence, Tito Mendrei's friend said that he had a car that he was willing to sell. I can't remember what car it was. It was like a 95 Mercedes. Nice leather seats and all. well, since my parents were looking into buying a car for anthony, they've decided to buy the car. It was a cheap price comapring it to the condition it is. so now, my bro technically has a car to drive, but the thing is that now we gotta find a way to drive that car back here to LA.

Well, after muching off Tito Mendrei's friends dinner, hey had a surprise for us. Hey were able to get some tickets to the Blue Man Group. My bros and I were freaking out cuz we heard how awsome the show was and we've been dying to see it. It was wonderful. Its just like 2 hours of these three performers all in blue putting on a show and cracking up the audience without even using words. Its just the awsome things they do which made everyone laugh. Its amusing what these guys can put on.

After that show, we returned to the suite. felt kinda nasty, for some reason, I got some random cough. the Cigarette smoke wasn't helping either. I'm serious, you can get second hand smoke with just 1 second in that casino.

well... Thanksgiving passed and then it was black friday. We had 2 shows planned. The first was a magic show. Some guy named mac something put on the show. there were a few okay tricks, but his jokes sucked. never go to his show.

well... the main show that day was the show that my tito Mendrei and tita cecile . lani Misalucha and the Society of Seven. Its a show of impersonations, singing, and Filipino humor. Mostly family safe. go check it out.But the most unexpected thing happened. The Filipino Ambassador for Amrica came to watch the show. his name was Ambassador Willy C. Gaa. He's stationed in DC. Kinda strange meeting the ambassador. kinda makes the world seem kidna small.

after the large dinner, tito mendrei and tita cecile watched over my bros, my cuz and I while our parents were at some Phantom of the Opera show. All night, we played Charades. whoever got a word right received 5 bucks, in the end, I was able to win about 20 bucks.

yeah... soo thats it. on the way home I was pretty sick. now I'm back home and sick. ah well.. at least we still go sunday.



Oh yeah... I'm posting pics soon. right now, I need to get that picture with the ambassador and the picture with the Blue man group from my aunt. they should be up soon.

aight... later
