So today started out pretty funny, heard a couple arguing about how the girl left the window down in the car and a giant spider was inside.  The guy was straight freaking out.  So that was awesome to wake up to.  Then I got ready ate some pancakes then we headed out to go check out where I will be for the week.  My bro said there was a mac store on the way, so I thought I would go see how much it would be to get my ram upgraded to 2 GBs.  On the way there I saw one of the most amazing things yet, the biggest can of tiki punch ever:

 
I actually made my brother turn around just so I could take a picture of it.  
 
Got to the mac store got my ram, head off toward hollywood.  It was kind of a journey so I used my laptop to try and do one of those time lapse dealies, it turned out alright here it is, just for kicks:
 

 
And I also took a picture of me doing it with my iphone, yay for all my money going to apple, its so hard to be hip:
 

 
And here is once we got onto hollywood blvd.:
 

 
We drove by the institute, and by the hostel I am staying at.  Apparently Justine thinks I am going to get seduced and killed by some hot chicks.  I just dont believe it.  I feel like that is the last thing that is going to happen.  I am guessing I will pretty much be pent up in my room on this trusty old comp, typing away on the website.  I dont really want to do to much, "exploring" later at night, who knows what could happen.
 
After driving around hollywood and beverly hills, we stopped at this amazing Japanese market place.  It was like immediatley going back to Japan.  They had everything amazing from Japan in the market, we spent a few minutes finding these little candy things called mochi, which are crazy delicious, they come in like any flavor imaginable:

They also had like 4 different Japanese restaurants inside the market.  I got some delicious food, and a drink that I always got while in Japan, and just the taste of the almost dirty green tea, straight made me feel like I was in Japan, rad experience.
 
After that just came back to the apt. and made some dinner, watched some hockey, drank some brewhaha, and kicked it.
 
Tomorrow should be pretty rad, first night staying in the hostel, Justine do not be to nervous for me, and just actually being in hollywood will be interesting.  The real journey begins then, peace, one love, and all that hippie shit. YAY to rastafarianism!!!!
