Back from Malaysia

Alright, I know, it's been a little while since I've posted anything here. There are a bunch of event photos that I could post, but I think I'll just jump right to my trip to Malaysia. Rollan Budi and I took a trip to Kota Kinabalu (aka - KK) which is actually located in East Malaysia on the island of Borneo. 

We met a ton of great people and had a lot of fun. Some highlights include getting diving certificates, renting a fishing boat to get to a private island, Chivas and green tea, great food sampling and some serious relaxation. We were fortunate enough to stay with friends, so the inflated cost of flying from North America was not an issue - Thanks Author!  - to be continued shortly

Bloody Beatroots + more

Thanks to Blueprint Events, Vancouver received its weekly injection of floor bouncing Electro. The Bloody Beatroots (myspace) played to a sold out show at Celebrities Nightclub on Friday night. In all honestly, I didn't really know much about the duo. After seeing what they do live, I can't wait till they come back.

My Friday consisted of a "few"stops. First down to Tonic for their Boats n Ho's party, Sanafir, Deuce Bungalow, Republic and then finally to Celebs.

Black Tusk Weekend

You know you're gonna be tired when your ride picks you up at 5:30am. The guys and I had a mission to hike The Black Tusk in Garibaldi Park (between Squamish and Whistler, BC). We were looking something out of the ordinary from our usual routines. Hiking 29km was definetely out of my normal routine. After a quick breakfast in Squamish, at one of the nicest looking McDonalds ever (yes I get the irony of eating at McDonald before a full day of exercise), we made it to the base of the trail at 8am. By the time I reached the 3rd kilometer marker I was contemplating whether or not this was the such a good idea...
