a second post!?!?!

-when i have a lot of shit to do, i tend to procrastinate hella
-but i figure i should let you guys know why i am going to london, if you didn't know already
-basically christina and i are doing some two week summer program at the oxford royal academy
-we're doing two classes a day, a morning and afternoon one
-after classes, im going to assume that we are allowed to do whatever the hell we want
-on the weekends, we actually get to do whatever the hell we want
-i dunno which classes i'm taking but i am pretty sure its political science (not gonna lie, i dont even know what that is), archaeology (digging fossils?), and architecture (i took a fucking whole year of class on this already, but i love it)
-ok to be honest, thats all i know about this trip
-i'm only going because i get a chance to visit europe again
-check out the website for more details and info and maybe next year you'll be interested in going? http://www.oxford-royale.co.uk/index.php

-some "macho" douche nozzle threatened to run me over when i flipped him off.
-he was one of those stereotypical fu man chu mustache, bald headed, sun-glass wearing, motorcyclist, white supremacist ass clown
-fail on his part for driving a truck with a motorcycle in the back
-go fuck your daughter with your tiny ass penis, you fucking redneck, kentucky fried chicken eating, fat son of bitch cunt whore
-yea he pissed me off, but what is a scrawny lil azn kid gonna do against two white fat fucks?
-i'm gonna blog about it!!!
-packing is so lame, and my internet is being a baby back bitch right now

-tomorrow i'm leaving sf until the 22nd
-going to london!
