I'll probably swing by tomorrow/today if I have nothing to do and that chance is very high

anyways im gonna be there tomorrow... or today now?
Lol, i tried to play with standing up. It actually doesnt matter for the view of the notes.. but the stand is too low.. I cant press well while im standing up..

I will be there tomorrow around lunch-afternoon.. maybe see you there eldevine.

tournaments don't make money because...

it is implied that the winner wins a prize. and who provides the prize?

i'd think a raffle would be a better idea. 10 tokens to buy a raffle ticket, prize = happy sky marquee? =D random thought.

anyways im going soon.

Oh man today was a pretty rough day to take a voyage to AI.

605 north was a parking lot, and I had left around 4pm. Took me 1 hour from Long Beach to get to AI and that was with using the carpool lane. At least I talked my brother into going with me today. >_<

I left around 7pmish because my brother was done getting whooped on, he can't get used to the controls of the fighters there. When we were leaving, the 605 north was still tore up and the backup was hitting the 60 west as well.

Haha, I usually wont drive during 4-7pm.
For friday, I usually went there at 12:00, then leave no later than 3:30. At that time, 60E & 10E traffic is like hell, but I take 60W + 10W, its better

Sunday sounds like a great meetup day.

I'm not doing anything important that day, well unless my friend heads down tonight then I get to repair his computer (fun fun)
