Vid/Pic tales: Vegas edition

So far Vegas is cool...I went to In and Out and got a number 1 "animal style", I wish I could get girls animal style, because that shit there was off the yazabah! I haven't really debauched yet...but my options are open. I've been battling my gambling demons because even though I know you have to spend money to have a good time, but God damn...These mufuckas want 250 to get in the door and you get a weak ass bottle of 'absolut' and a bottle of 13.99 Andre champagne like you're a baller.... But the night is still young and it's 2009 somewhere... Anyways excuse the videio I was a little hungover but I hope the sentiment is convetter yed. Be safe and do everything you did in 2009, ten times better in 2010... Anyways here's some pics from vegas of me and my bro's vegas excursion...

the view from the room, I made a panorama..
My brosef 'bapman'
The Ladykillers pictured fromn left to right 'Shahiem' 'Chocolate Giddy-up' and 'B'
I met this girl from memphis as soon as I got off the plane, I met this dude I went to high school with and he was on the same vegas flight with me... Anyways he was a cornball a little bit but it didn't stop my shine... I'm going to be chilling with her next year.

My bro 'bapman's' got them waves and I'm kind of ashamed to say it...He's shitting on me a little bit and I'm the 'prince of tides'

Andre in love, for reals...

I'm using wifi on the airplane! I remember being younger and just the thought of using my phone in the air would bring to mind visions of crashes and all sorts of alarms and buzzers going off...

Anyways, I'm on my way to Las Vegas to meet some good friends of mine and it sucks because I wish I could've caught the earlier flight to San Diego so I could've driven into Las Vegas with them because I think that would've just been cool as shit. But in reality I hate driving and I'll beat my friends there so I'll just meet them at our hotel the Mandalay Bay.

I really feel like I should've done more research on Vegas, I don't know for sure what I'll do, but I know it will involve debauch and 4 foot drinks with the shoulder strap...

After dropping off 'elaines' christmas gift, a brand spanking new vintage schwinn, while I was watching her ride it and smiling like a proud father, I realized that I like this girl. I haven't told her because real men don't say things like that do they?

Anyways I'll have some cool pics and stuff from vegas when I touch down...and if y'all know any what's up in Vegas let me know!

Bah Humbug/ A Christmas Miracle!

Happy Holidays to all of y'all out there!

I'm honestly not that big of a christmas guy, so I enjoyed an holiday philly cheesesteak and I'll be coming up on a plate or two tommorows. So yay christmas!

After taking my phone to CPR (cell phone repair), they took my iphone in the back and opened it and probably just reconnected some wires and tested connections. While waiting I was just thinking like,

"Damn! Why didn't I just spend the extra money and get it done no worries, now look at the predicament I'm in!"

He came back and told me that "I had pinched one of the data ribbons and fucked my digitizer up. He could replace it for $180 dollars. "

In my mind I was like fuck that shit right now, I want to save up 'till new years when I go to las vegas.

So I drive to emory mad as hell thinking about my phone. So I just plug it into my car lighter just for shits, and what do i see but this..

It's a Christmas Miracle!

I'm now a happy iphone owner.

So my whole mood changes but on the back of my mind is the fact that I might not be able to go to Las Vegas for new year with bro's from the navy who I haven't seen in a hot minute. Since I himmed and hawed and procrastinated, I found myself at the last minute using a buddy pass to fly. Unfortunately there is a buddy pass embargo on high traffic days like new years and stuff. So I get a txt at like 9pm saying I'm clear to travel on the days and it might even be first class!

I'm honestly not that big of a fan of vegas because I feel like, anything I can do out there I can do here in atlanta. From 'trickin off on coochie' to gambling and shit. I'm not really a frugal person because I spend money on some of the most foolish-est shit...well not really just clothes and cool stuff. But I would rather buy a few shirt or jeans with a $200 rather than trick it off or throw it away on some shit I don't need.

But where's the fun in that?

Hopefully it goes down like this, this new years....

minus the fist pumping and the slore jabbing.

Speaking of slores and baby whores, I do get down with the show because it's just so bad it's good?

You poor little white girl

When I put her back together I felt like a proud father, I couldn't stop smiling! But that smile wiped off of my face really quickly when I realized that my touch screen didn't work. I was hella worried because I saved the sim card holder for last and I couldn't push it back in the iPhone because ribbon connector was in the way. Figuring my problem would be as simple as just opening her back up and checking the connections, I saved it for later that night.

I open it up later and check my connections and I get the sim card in there and close her up and I get nothing. After several failed attempts and it's refusal to turn back on, I was convinced I had bricked my iphone. It seems I had bent a (very sensitive) connector and that can ruin the whole screen/digitizer display.

So all day today I was feeling sick to my stomach knowing that I fucked my iphone up and now I had to either find this raggedy ass Blackjack and use it or be on the hunt for another 16 gig iphone (I can't go back to 8 gigs). The thing that made it so bad was that the screen repair itself was a success and I had this brand new screen on a fucked up iphone.

Andre's DIY iPhone repair = FAIL?

Damn... I'm so frustrated with myself! What should've been an easy fix, turned into a a day of terror for me. I finally got the reserve to fix my screen on my iphone. So I set out all my tools...

Open the two screws in the bottom. Use my suction cup to remove the screen from the case. But when I try to remove the screws to separate the digitizer from the assembly, I find out after removing 5 of the six screws, I have stripped one of the tiny ass screws in there. So today I'm going to take my phone to and try and get the screws removed.
I haven't been spending as much time as I'd like with 'elaine' but the time I spend is really cool. Since I enjoy her company, she's beautiful and I like her a lot, I don't know why making it 'official' didn't work out. I mean nothing at all changed, we just called what it was, what it was.

But it seemed like that small thing changed the dynamic of it all.

I'm such a selfish person I want it all, the affection of one but the affection of others. There really isn't anything like the thrill of meeting someone new, and getting to know them at the same time.

Speaking of wanting it all, a a co-worker that's a has been on my mind lately...Long story medium we all just started at working at emory like a few weeks ago and the first thing I noticed was her body. This girls' shape is bananas, and she is very attractive. So when I find out she's a teacher So I keep it professional with green/yellow light jokes here and there and we made eyes at each other, until we go out after work for drinks. Now I have aspirations of teaching high school whenever I get tired of being a school boy/finish my degree, so I asked her how it was and if she liked it. She said to me....

"Well my goal is to not get pregnant before I finish my degree but if I did get pregnant right now, I wouldn't be that upset."

Hmmm...I hate to hear unicorns say things like this.

Hearing that made me pause for a second and think about all the horror stories I've heard of office flings and things like that, but on the other hand if I was really looking to settle down and stop going out and stop trying to catch other girls eyes, she would be the perfect girl for me. But that sacrifice is too much for me at least right now. Because she is a 'good' girl, I'm just gonna see what happens, and really watch what I do, we've been txting back and forth and have been out a few times but the vibe I get is this chick has seen guys who may seem like me who just want to give her hell then keep it moving.

Andre prefers white

Even though I look zesty as hell in that video above, I love my new macbook. It's amazing!
As soon as I got it home I didn't really have to much time to play around with it because I was spending time with 'elaine'. But I do love it even though I don't know all about it and all the functions and stuff.
Being that I'm making the switch, there are some things I like about being a mac that I didn't like about being a PC, and vice versa. The first thing I did was put photoshop on it and after seeing Vid Vix talking about how sweet After effects was next. Did I pay at all full price? Of course not, if I'm not using them for professional use, should I pay the same price as a professional? No I shouldn't.

1. The right click on my macbook is either set to command+click or the bottom right section of the trackpad, since the whole trackpad is clickable and supports iphone gestures, it took a little bit getting used to.

2. I'm so used to closing 'windows' to improve space and performance, but that's not the case with mac.

3.I thought I'd just plug in my guitar and start jamming out, but I need to run a preamp and some other stuff to really get the sound I want.

4. Since I've had my macbook I've seen a lot more of those gay ass windows 7 commercials, and everytine they talk about one of the 'features they created' I'm like 'I can do that by..."

5. I consider myself a 'student', but how can I be a 'student' without the ability to to word process? But I'm sure if I dig enough I'm sure I can find 'MS Office 98 for Mac' for the free or something.

6. I tell some people I just got a mac and they say "....you didn't have one before? You seem like you would." What the fuck does that mean?

Have you heard of this movie called 'new moon'?

I sat through 2 hours and 3 minutes of the crappiest crap, I have ever seen.



I thought that this was this generations 'Buffy the vampire slayer' or 'angel' or even 'interview with the vampire'. How mistaken was I?

I do have the first two books in my possession though. I'm a firm believer that books are better than movie and I have never seen anything contrary to that. So I'll get around to reading them.
