Black Friday sales are the worst, right before the Christmas lol

@@hopescape6697 I had to put a limit this season because I bought a big item present, a piano for myself. Just think I am in my 70’s and starting to learn how to play the piano. 😂 I have Beethoven hair but not his teeth or his talent. 😅 take care.

@@DavidChow-n4x lol omg. love the self love right there! keep the hair and carry on. I've done some big purchases this year also, I am thinking it might be related with some stress lately but oh well. It's 10 days to Christmas!!

@@hopescape6697 Don’t remind me, I am still writing out Christmas cards. It takes a long time because I write it out in Calligraphy. Just a tradition. Have a nice and blessed Ho,ho, ho. 🙏🎉🎄🎁☃️❄️

Omg it’s the weekend 🥂🍾✨ hope you have a beautiful one

@@hopescape6697 Hip hip hurrah, you folks have a blessed weekend.🎉🥂🍾🙏🙏🙏

Really!!!? Gotta check that out

You just made my day :) that’s exactly what I want to share. The experience as is and hope you get the first hand experience , the vibe, not just another tiring video on TH-cam. 🥂 cheers to life🍾✨

😆🤣😂 🔥🚨😳 I wouldn’t know how to shuck oysters 🦪🦪🦪🦪🦪 lol. When I went to the oyster farm/ restaurant in Seattle I saw people buying fresh oysters and taking it home. They had two different prices as is / shucked. The difference was quite big about double. I know you can also do steamed oysters unshucked, but those were such good/ fresh quality oysters 🦪 they would be best eaten fresh. I love 🦪🦪🦪🦪🦪😆💜

My little brother loves oysters he always begging me to make oysters whenever he comes for a visit. There is a point on side of his head where I used for to shucked the oyster shell, he seems to don’t mind it, because he loves to eat oysters so much. 🤣 He doesn’t know how to cook to well. Just can opener or nuclear power cooking, His wife only does one thing, that is salads. That is what my sister-in-law believes will keep her slim and trim. I call it Starvation Diet or Psychosomatic Dieting. 🤢🤮 The interesting part on your video was seeing what is in the oysters dish. That’s how mom and I try to do is to figure out the ingredients in our favorite dish when we go to eat out. Whenever we order our favorite dish, we would dissect the component and compare notes on what we think they use for seasoning. Basically we are reconstructing the dish. We don’t believe in that philosophy, “Don’t play with your food.” Afterwards we compare notes, and try making it at home. Generally we get pretty close duplicating the recipe at home. As a child I love reading detective stories like Sherlock Holmes this helps me to be more analytical and logical in trying to figuring out things. The last time I went to Vegas was during final week when I was at ACCD. I had finished all of my final project early and Circus,Circus 🤡 🎪had a deal for the weekend. All room was $19 dollars on the weekend but you have to stay for three nights. What better way to unwind than to go to Vegas. I calculated that my last class was on Friday afternoon so after class I hop on my car drove to Vegas to spend three nights in Vegas and watching the people walk around and gamble and having fun that’s if they are winning. I also went visiting Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. Didn’t have pockets money to gamble, but that will be another story. (I’m not a gamblers,) I do get lucky when I do give it a try.. (I guess I have a six sense, I become one with the “Force”, something like that, but I think it has to do more of being analytical luck.) The Prime Rib dinner at Circus, Circus 🤡🎪was just $10 dollars , that’s if you like boiled Prime Rib, and you have to stay at Circus, Circus 🤡🎪for that weekend special, and you can’t take leftovers to your room. Being me, I managed. If you are ever faced with boiled roast cooking, always order rare to raw. The flavor of the meat doesn’t boiled away, (advice from chef and butcher son) The only thing was I had to check out early 5 am Monday morning in order to make it to my morning class. I was pretty relax when I got to my first class. I didn’t care what they had to say about my project, I was, Mellow Yellow. My classmate couldn’t understand why I wasn’t wired up they thought it was kind of weird but then they always thought I was weird, they ask me how was my weekend? Thinking I had an all nighter. Told them I drove to Vegas to chill out. (he is weird.)🤪 Told them I went and visited Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, the looking at their bloodshot eyes told me they must have had an all nighter. I can only remember having two all nighter while I was at ACCD. Those were interesting times. I still can’t figure out how I manage finished and graduated from ACCD? I guess through the Grace of God. 🌟🙏 Hope you folks are enjoying your weekend. Take care. 🙏🎉🥂🍾🥶🥶🥶🥶 It is freezing here. Last night it was 41-46 degrees. Today they expect to be 47-51 tonight. Still haven’t figured out how does the thermostat work after living that the new house for 10 years. “I had to go get the latest system.” (Keep it simple stupid, that was what my drill sergeant always said me.) 🤪

@@DavidChow-n4x 🤡🎪 room was $19 dollars? The Prime Rib dinner at Circus, Circus 🤡🎪was just $10 dollars? wow talking about inflation lol. final week at Vegas? lol I can relate, the final week is super stressful the stress needs to be released some how. I always felt pulling an all night never worked for me. I ended up staying awake for whole night but I would be so tired I actually would not be as productive as I would think. it was more of heat in the moment, feeling like I had to stay all night. couple ore days to the weekend! cheers!

@ Doing all nighter takes strategy. I would have my pot of hot coffee next to me and a pair of Q-tips to keep my eyelid propped open just in case and a pair of earplugs music blasting away, and go to sleep as soon I get home and wake up in the early hours of the morning. (1-2 am)🥱 It has been raining and windy up here. At night still around 50 degrees. Finally we have rain, let nature water my outdoor garden. Water bill is extremely high here because we had to buy our water from SF. 🌬️🌧️☔️ Just getting ready for Christmas this weekend. I going to start decorating. Already have all my Christmas DVD pull and all my Christmas CD pull. Started writing my Christmas cards. Still thinking about getting tickets to the sing along Handel’s Messiah at Davis Symphony Hall but as I’m getting older I don’t like being around large crowds. Too many wild turkeys driving in the street.🦃 Already started to buy Christmas presents for myself. 😂 Take care you folks and have a fantastic weekend. 🎉🥂🍾🎄☃️❄️ 🥶🥶🥶 Don’t tell anybody this, but I have a confession to make, I used some of the leftover scholarship money from that semester for the trip to Vegas. I feel relief in telling someone who went to ACCD. I’ve been feeling guilty all these years. Now I can rest in peace. ⚰️ (I did really needed to unwind) Now about that story about not being a gambler, the night before I was to leave Vegas. I dreamt I was playing a slot machines and hit the Jackpot. Well as I was leaving the Casino that early morning. I had two dollars in my pocket. As I passed by this huge slot machines and decided to put a dollar into the machine and pull the lever. Three “7” came up, I’m waiting for all the bells and whistle and all that money to come out of the machine, nothing happened? Upon reading the instructions you have to put in three coins into the machine in order to win. So much for not reading instruction first, I only put in one coin and got nothing. Disgusted I put in my last coin and pull the leaver, guess what? Three “7” came up. I cry as I was leaving the Casino and made my way to my car in the garage. 😥 😩😩 Moral of the story, read the directions first, before you go ahead and do things. 😩

All I remember is that it was an ocean view room on top floor on the left side property. I am sure if you have any ocean view on higher floors will give the similar vibe. Happy travels🙏🏼

@@hopescape6697 great thanks!

I have to check your last msg! that's cool. When I was there interface for graphic was getting pretty hot. It was pretty new back then and I had some of friends crossed over to the new technology that way. Arizona was a lot more interesting than I expected. I actually want to go see it again when it snows, but that is if we can drive in that weather lol

for some reason I can not find that msg :/ weird. Anyway It's such a shock to meet a alumni online lol after all this time chatting we realized we had some common ground lol that's pretty cool

@ I agree. Fellow ACCD graduate. We have something in common ground. 😂 Been thinking of donating my design books to the ACCD library. I had been collecting designer books since by day at ACCD. They are very rare books now signed by the designers who wrote the books. . That was one thing good about ACCD, they had great connections with well known designers in the field. Some were ex-students. Miss those days. Fun times.

@ My Aunt Louise lives in Phoenix AZ. Interesting story. Uncle Frank side of the family were the famous “Ong” family. The “Ong” were the first Chinese family to settle in a little town called Phoenix AZ. Being Asian they bought acres of desert land around Phoenix area. This was back in the mid 1800’s. At least that was told to me by Uncle Frank, The family also opened the first supermarket and a bowling alley in Phoenix, That was the first time I ever bow, Uncle Frank taught me. He told me I was a natural, my first game was 110. It was also the first time I had America food. Freshly made hamburgers, French fries, homemade milk shakes. The strawberry milk shake was divine. I remember having three full shake after all I was a growing boy of ten. Mom and Dad sent us to Phoenix because mom was just about to give birth to the spoiled brat. 🤣 That was back in the mid 50’s They didn’t open a restaurant or laundromat. Think Uncle Frank was first generation Chinese American. My first two semesters at ACCD was tough. By father passed away on my first semester. This left mom alone and had no one to take care of the family business. Dad asked me to look after mom after I graduated from ACCD and take care of the family business. I was worried about her, whether I should quit ACCD and return my scholarship and go back to work to support her. Dad wanted me to get my degree and make me promise to him to finish my education at ACCD and afterwards take care of mother. So that was what I did, I promise dad to finished school and afterwards took care of mother, that was what I ended up doing. The road was a hard one but looking back I was glad I make the right decision, it work out. I was glad I was able to make some changes while I was at ACCD. The school had become too stressful at ACCD. So I decided to try to change that to and eased the tension and make it a less strenuous of a school. What I did was to setup a dim sum parties at the beginning of each new semester and one at the end of the semester, after finals where we can let out steam. The professor were great, they thought it was a great idea, and that they can have an opinion to get to know their students better. Unfortunately most of the students didn’t want to participate just a few students and the professors. In the end the professor would bring guests speakers in hope to draw more students. It didn’t work out but the professor and I had a great time. We would have lectures on the topic like: “ Modern day design and what direction it is it heading? The guest speaker was the leader in the field. (We would have fascinating conversations.) Plus it was fun to teach them all about Chinese dim sum and the Chinese culture. (We had a blast. I miss those days) The only rule was everyone must pay the luncheon even if you are not eating. Even the President of ACCD had to pay, no exceptions, except one, the guest speaker don’t have to pay for their luncheon. 🤣 I miss those professors they had helped me out a lot. They also knew my circumstances with my loss. The last semester before graduation I had to set up over ten banquet tables, that was over hundred people who wanted to participate in our last gathering. The topic: “How to prepare your portfolio, while looking for a job.” That lecture was a long one, it lasted for five hours. We had such a good time we ended up having dinner there also. 🤣 Fun time, miss those days but still had those fond memory. 🥲

@ 🥟🎉🍾🥂? Lol Sounds like a lot of fun. I’ve always been more reserved and bit private, I have few friends from accd I still keep in touch. I think it is normal that people are super stressed at accd. I can’t think of one semester or critique where I was relaxed and felt like I got this. Accd was constantly pushing bars, testing my edge and seeing all these crazy talented people around me. Also constantly hearing who is getting what job, who is working with whom and people are not returning bc they end up doing so well for them selves and so on. I still do miss my accd days sometimes, I really was able to give my undivided attention toward my work and I feel I need to go back to that state of mind. Need to push my self to that zone again. Uncle Frank lol how marvelous story he has. I never really had an uncle or aunt that close. I feel may be because my mother never had sisters, then my dad was youngest from his family my brother and I were never that close with any of the cousins either. Anyways, tomorrow is the mid week hang in there ! In a bit we have the thanksgiving coming 🦃🎃🍁🍂🕯️🍽️🍾🥂🎉

Thanks🩵 you so sweet

Thanks sweetheart🩵

🩵it was thanks for watching 🙂

Hey not sure if you got the other msg but I went to art center too! This is crazy lol. I went in as illustration and graduated as fine art painting. I do have good memories of Pasadena too lol I am definitely thinking about going around neighborhood again for Christmas. If ppl care to watch the video I would film it but may be not I don’t know. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I do too!

Dodgers is up against Yankees tonight! Actually in 5 minutes it’s the World Series! I’ve never been a sports fan of any kind. Just not into sports like that but I’ve spent quite sometime w my hub’s fam who are very big on dodgers and few other sports so I kinda of got soaked into it. Let’s say now I know how to count scores lol. You like the music? Thank you it’s a challenge for me to pick songs for videos. I actually go though like 100 and may be down load like 3 🙂‍↕️… but glad you enjoyed!

@@hopescape6697 Well it is very fitting. I love Italian music, I enjoy Neapolitan songs but I especially love their culture and food and wine. Plus their history in art. I been a sport fan all my life so I can say I know all the nuances of the sport. But unlike most sports fans I don’t go crazy if my team loses, I not going to cut my wrist and bleed Dodger blue like some fan would react if their team loses, It is only a game, it is not a live and death situation.😱 That why I stay away from crazy emotional people watching the game. 🤪 I don’t want to listen to your scientific analysis of the game on why they lost. I was there watching the game with you. I know why they lost. 😳

@@DavidChow-n4x 😆😂😆🤣 The dodgers game at our house can get a little crazy depending on how they are doing lol. I can barely read the score so I am just an observer🤣😂😁 But last time when we were in Italy and Spain, the local liquor stores were closing down early on game nights bc ppl were getting that crazy to the point government was prohibiting to sell liquor after certain hours on game night. I first thought the store owner was kidding, but nop… he was dead serious 😱

@@hopescape6697 The government knows how much the lunatic fan can get once they have a few drinks under their belt. All sense of normalcy of humanity is gone. 🤪😳🤣

@@DavidChow-n4x 🙂‍↕️😔😡

park hyatt concierge, we were staying there

Was he? lol that’s awesome 😎

Long time no talk 🩵 How are you Things are settling down finally and getting some rest :) Korean house? lol what a name. I do like shabushabu style restaurants. Cooking my own meal in tiny stove it’s always fun and I love soup🍲 Especially in winter ❄️. Are you ready for Thanksgiving Christmas- end of the year and the new years? Time flies literally flies from now on to next year January. Aka My favorite season🥂🍾✨

@@hopescape6697 This year I decided to celebrate all the holidays starting with Halloween and Thanksgiving, even though my brother doesn’t. From this holiday I decided to make everyone happy. That is the thing I try to do for the rest of my life. I tire of seeing too many unhappy people in the world. Life should be fun and your travel vlog shows how much fun life can be. I miss my days travel days we had so many exciting moments together. Enjoy the youngest day for the rest of life. Thank you, Cheers🥂🍾 Enjoy your weekend.🎉🙏🥐🥡🥢🎃👻

@@DavidChow-n4x I used to host Thanksgiving, my dad's bday - his birth day is day after Christmas usually on Christmas evening , and some times new years at my house. It would be take me forever to clean the house but I really enjoy the decoration part. Love getting fresh flowers and arranging them preparing menu and all. Most of all my family would come and enjoy the food and the time that meant world. We played a lot of games, last game we enjoyed playing was the sushi card game that my sister in law got for us one Christmas. It is still my favorite time of the year and I might be starting to hosting small parties again but for now, for this year I need some rest. Hope you have blasts of memories this holiday!

@@hopescape6697 I expect it to be quiet, not unless I’ll stir things up and planning a huge party for cousin who lost their brother or just keep it simple and maybe volunteer at the soup kitchen on skid row. We’ll see, lately my hip has been giving me some problems, I seem to be able to stand up for a long time going to get some X-ray and check it out. . Now that mom isn’t here I don’t have to play it by ear. I had already stated putting up my Autumn decorations along with the Halloween decorations. I love Halloween it used to be fun and safe for the kids. I bought enough candy to last for the whole year. They were on sale. This year I’m planning to set up the Christmas tree earlier right after Halloween. I love Christmas, it is the best time of the year, it is so peaceful. People are so full of joy and happiness and you get to share presents with your family and friends and watch the excitement in their faces when they opened up their presents and questions why I got this for them.🤣 Speaking of birthdays my is in January, born in the year of the rabbit. Not just any old rabbit but a playboy rabbit. That why I never married, I used to get a chuckle out of that. Mom was the year of the dragon .🐉 When we were kids we used to call her the dragon lady. We would say: “Run for your lives, the dragon lady is coming and she is carrying the big stick.” 😂 (Really miss her.) Well I chatted long enough both of you take care.🍁🥂🍾🎃👻🥡🥢🥠

@@hopescape6697 This year I am planning on making it memorable holiday season for everyone. This year theme will be the ghost of Christmas past. It is going to be fun. Still my brother doesn’t like to celebrate I going to have my cousins and a few family friends.There will be dinner and holidays movies and champagne and desserts. Hope the people can make it. It should be fun. 🥂🍾🍁🎃👻

Yours very deep skualen top.but fregile.

Veryvery deep skualen.but.. Veryvery deep top.

Thank you for watching

Good for you. I truly believe good food can come in any price point

😌😆🙏🏼

🙏🏼 thanks

Lol I know the expression 🍎, but there was no apple so I meant to say fruit.

It’s really hot in my area. It’s in 90s. I was at LAX few days ago and it’s was 70s there I don’t know what is going on. I can only predict another earthquake is bound this way. It’s October not supposed to be in 90s. 🍅🥔😌👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 that is very exciting. I’ve never been interested in growing my own food but I do enjoy planting my flower bulbs in fall. My anemones and ranunculuses. Last year I plant some new irises and they didn’t do so well so I kind of need to figure what to do with them. I might need to do thicker bedding or move them I don’t know. I love fall and winter, that’s when I get excited about next year’s spring blooms and also I get to take break from watering plants. Hope we get good rain this winter. Hope you are having a beautiful weekend 🙌🏼🩵

Have fun guys! It’s a beautiful place :)

cheers 🤌🏼🍣🤌🏼🍣🤌🏼✨

It is always nice to hear from you. I haven't heard from you for few weeks and I wondered where you went. Pleasant memories will give me a smile anytime of the day. Isn't that what we live for! I am glad I woke some of your memories and hope they were mostly pleasant. We had very intense week, and now we need to rest. Hope you had a good Autumn Moon festival, I didn't have chance to see the moon my self. How was the moon this year? Please take care! 🌝🥮🍁🥂🍾🎉

@@hopescape6697 The full moon was spectacular. The evening sky was clear and with the large windows (13 ft. high) just watching the moon raise and having loo long tea along with eating moon cake was very relaxing. I can only handle half a one cake because they are pretty rich and fatting . Us guys has to watch our manly figure. 😱 The reason why you hadn’t heard from me was my cousin passed away and I was trying to comfort my two cousins. He pass away way too young but at least he not suffering anymore. Now some happy thoughts, Finally finished decorating the house for Halloween. I love the Autumn Season there are so many activity during the fall and winter. I have to watch my spending decoration house for Halloween. It was one of my favorite time of the year. I feel like a kid again going door to door asking for treats. Now days it handing out candy to the kids. This year I am buying some Croissant and dipping in white chocolate and put two dots for eyes am calling it: “The Ghostly Croissant.” just to celebrated Halloween. Since I have a sweet tooth I generally stock up on candy for the year during Halloween. Enjoy your weekend 🍁🥮🥂🍾🥐👻🎃

@@DavidChow-n4x I am very sorry for your loss. We also have his dad funeral coming up next week and past few weeks were very intense to the point I don’t even know how it went by. Our lives are kind of stopped just living day by day. I am having some digestive difficulties due everything that has been happening. It will take awhile for us to plugged back to our normal lives and there are bunch to take care between both of our moms. Next few weeks are going to be pretty crazy and just need to get it done. I do love autumn 🍂 love traveling to the spot where they have beautiful autumn leaves. I might skip decorating my house this holiday season, it was never that same after my dad passed. Ps. Isn’t it shocking how each 🌛🥮 Have such high calories.

@@hopescape6697 I am really, really sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is really hard. We have fond memories of them. I often think of them when I celebrate the holidays. I try to remember them during the holidays and buy presents 🎁 for myself since my brothers doesn’t celebrate the holidays with me. Don’t stop celebrating the holidays they wouldn’t want that. They want you to be happy and have happy through about them. I can remember all the funny moments that happened together. Just remember they don’t want you folks to be sad. They want you folks to be happy and celebrate life. You folks take care and try to remember all the happy times you folks had together with them. Take each day one day at a time. Eating moon cake helps a lot.🥮🥮🥮🥮 Take care and hang in there I will be praying for your family.
