  • Sonlay's Tip For People Going Out To Drink

    Last night, I went out drinking with a bunch of my friends in our hometown. I was back for the holidays and finally able to drink in my hometown. Sadly, the bars in my hometown are sketchier than the bars in San Francisco. So instead of finding cool and chill people, I found: wannabe thugs, actual thugs, hicks, old people, sleezeballs, perverts, locals, and a bunch of students from my high school graduation class who never moved out of town.

    It was a diverse group, but not a diverse group you hope to see.


    Even though I was with a bunch of friends, I did not feel safe with my female friends leaving their drinks unattended. There were guys hitting on them left and right and sleezeballs being touchy flirty. My female friends were pretty much prey toward these men.

    So since I was worried about my female friends, I did something every time I saw them leave their drink unattended.

    I covered their drink with a coaster.


    I did not feel comfortable leaving their drink alone in front of all these predators. I didn't want one to secretly put a roofie in their drinks when I turned around for a quick second or two.

    So my personal tip to you bar/club goers or future bar/club goers is to cover your drink with a coaster when you leave your drink alone. It may look stupid, but it prevent people in sketched out areas from walking by and quickly tossing a roofie in your drinks. So be safe and prevent the pedobears at the club by doing this in case you leave your drink with a friend when you head to the restroom or something.



    Later Days...

    P.S. I saw too many older women going out to the bars acting young. They were dressing sleezy and behaving sleezy. So whenever one walked passed me I yelled toward their direction, "Hey, whose watching your kid?!"

  • Reality TV taught me how to be a better boyfriend

    If you didn't know, I love reality TV. It adds excitement, make my nights entertaining, and most of all..

    Reality TV has taught me how to be a better boyfriend


    Through watching reality TV I have learned how to do the right things and learned how to not make my significant other mad. Some take these shows for granted, but I appreciate them.



    Tool Academy taught me that being the 'Alpha Male' isn't all what woman want. Instead they want commitment and a boyfriend that can not only be sympathetic and not always macho.



    The Hills taught me to never combine my girlfriend's name with mine because if we ever do we become the most hated couple in America that is on the verge of breaking up.



    And last, Cheaters taught me to never ever cheat on my girlfriend or think of it because if I ever do she will become fishy and request one of the biggest D-Bag monotone hosts out there in America to spy me.

    So if you hate reality TV shows because you think they are fake. Well remember this, they teach you how to be a better significant other and you should appreciate that.

    Aw what am I kidding? They are all BS yet so entertaining!

  • Nice Persistent Phone Advertisers

    I don't know about you, but I am easily guilt tripped by others. Especially by ones who unintentionally guilt trip me.

    Well today I had another guilt trip experience, AGAIN.

    I just arrived in San Francisco today from Petaluma where I found an envelope at my doorstep. I looked at the mailed letter and noticed that it was my new credit card (I canceled my old one and decided to get a new one with a new credit card company). I immediately rip the folded paper up and was excited to finally see the new credit card with the sticker on top with the certain number to call to activate it. I don't know about you, but I love getting new things.

    So I decided to drop everything and call the activation number right away. After dialing and communicating with the monotone machine for about two minutes or so, I finally reached an operator.

    The person was a nice male who sounded as if he was from India. He helped activate my card and made me ready to go. Problem was... after I activating it, he kept offering me additional features onto my account. I am not a big fan on adding features on to my stuff, especially when I have to pay for them. However, he was being so persistent and nice that he kept discussing about how the first 30 days are a free trial.

    I am not going to lie. I didn't give a shit, but for some reason I felt guilty. This guy was trying his best to sell me something in his kind Indian accent. It just thought of 'Slumdog Millionaire' when I heard his voice and it made me think... I can't refuse Latika!


    Latika from 'Slumdog Millionaire'

    So I caved in and accepted 1 out of the 3 features he was offering. To be honest though, I am probably going to remove it right after the first free 30 days end. I just wanted to accept it because I felt bad and it probably would help his commission if I accepted it. Plus Latika would be upset at me if I refused.

    Funny thing is I immediately had to call the credit card again to change my pin number and instead of reaching the Indian accented man, I received an American woman. She offered the same features that he did, but instead of being nice... I rejected her right away. In fact, I don't even think I responded with a "Thanks, how are you?" after she asked how I was doing.

    I guess I am only friendly to Latika, not Americans.

    I noticed this blog went from 'Guilt Trips' to 'Persistent Phone Advertiser' to 'Slumdog Millionaire'...

  • Q and A with Sonlay

    I think it is time for me to finally answer the questions from my last blog 'Questions for Sonlay'. I enjoyed all the questions that were asked so here are my answers! BTW if you would still like to ask me a question, you may. I will just update the blog with your question and my answer later.

    mncjl: Where do I send your card this year? :P




    Sonychak: First off let me say thank you for sending me a Christmas card last year. It made me smile because I never get Christmas cards that are specifically addressed to me. So thank you! But yeah you should be able to send it to the same address as last year. If you forgot about it already just message me and I will send it to you through there. I don't want to give my address out here. There might be some wanting to send me anthrax or something.





    Beckbites:     what was your most memorable day spent with your girlfriend?








    Sonychak    : Oddly my most memorable moment with my girlfriend wasn't a romantic moment. Instead it was a moment where I felt incredibly embarrassed.

    The moment happened last year during winter break. My girlfriend and I just started going out and I was back home at my parent's place for winter break. My girlfriend was missing me so I decided to drive back to San Francisco (where she lives and where I go to school) to see her for the day.

    The drive is about an hour to an hour and a half away from my house. I decided to leave early in the morning so I could avoid traffic. Problem is though... my body is accustomed to going poo in the morning so when I was half way through the drive... my stomach kicked in telling my butt that it was time to go poo!  My butt clenched, my face was spazzing out, my body was ready to explode. The closer and closer I got to her house the more I was freaking out. I even freaked out and called her asking, "Can I use your bathroom when I get there?!"

    When I finally reached to her house, I popped out of my car and ran inside. She led me toward a bathroom and I did my thang. Right after, I come back out and I see her sitting there waiting. When we started walking toward the door to leave, I reached in my pockets and noticed something... my car keys were missing! So right when I got out of the house I saw my car keys were inside the car with the car still on. I freaked out and went "Oh Nooo!" I just drove over for an hour and locked my car keys in the car. The only spare keys I had were back at my parent's place.

    I was freaking out and realized I had to do something I didn't want to do... I had to break into my car with a clothes hanging wire. I went all Macgyver and wrapped two wires together and squeezing it into my window while I had a screw driver making a gap. However, the sad thing was... I was unable to get the door switch  opened for about 45 minutes. I was freaking out and my girlfriend was just laughing at me.

    Thing is the worse didn't happened yet... after 30 minutes or so my girlfriend's mom came out of the house to see what was wrong. I have never met her before so I was introduced to her mom at the worst timing. She met me for the first time when I was freaking out about how I locked myself out of my car. It was quite memorable and it made me embarrassed for life.

    I eventually did get the door to open, but it was the most embarrassing moment I ever had with my girlfriend, which I today consider our most memorable moment.

    Just_another_life_of_a_girl:     do you have to poop at the same time everyday?



    Sonychak    : Yes, most of my poops are at the same time everyday. My body has oddly adjusted to where it poops right after I wake up. These are usually on school days or days I have to wake up early. If it is a day where I can relax and be lazy in the morning, I tend to poo in the afternoon. My body is odd and I wish it wasn't. I wish I could just poo at moments where I am free and available to poo. Not poo when I have to get ready or do something. It is quite a frustrating butt hole.





    JustPlainMorgie:     That bottom right photo... was there a purpose to that hairstyle?

    I was about to say do you eat rice, because I have an unnatural obsession with rice and then i realized that might seem racist. But it's not, I promise.




    Sonychak: If you readers don't know she is referring toward this picture. 

    The reason for that picture was that I just popped out of the shower and noticed that my hair can stick up and look odd. I have been growing my hair about 4-5 months around the time that photo was taken so I wanted to take a picture to show the world how long it has gotten. Sadly, my hair length isn't that long anymore. My hair style is back to being either buzzed or bald. Oh, I miss that hair.

    Now for the second question. Yes, I do eat rice. I eat rice with most of my meals. I don't know if it is because I am Asian or just because I love how rice can be fulfilling. I eat fried rice, burritos with rice, microwaveable chimichangas with rice. You name it, I eat most of my stuff with rice. I even make scrambled eggs and eat it with rice and ketchup. And BTW don't worry. I didn't find it racist.


    chenmeicai: Would you ever considering cosplaying? LOL. :p





    Sonychak: I am not big on cosplays mostly because I am not big on anime and because when I attended one I felt awkward when strangers wanted to 'Glomp' me, but to be honest... I would cosplay if I could be one of these three certain characters.




     

    Sakuragi from 'Slam Dunk'



    Detective Conan from 'Detective Conan'



    or Onizuka from 'Great Teacher Onizuka


    Rob_of_the_Sky: What's on your cap in your profile pic?



    Sonychak: The logo on my cap is actually an Oakland A's logo. I am not big on baseball, but they make awesome caps. I am also not a San Francisco Giants fan even though I live in SF. I am more of a fan of the A's.





    jeannie_dot_com: you do slouch when you poop? :D






    Sonychak: Of course, I slouch. Who doesn't? It helps the flow of the poo come out of your buttox easier. Do you slouch Jeannie? I bet you grunt while you poo too, haha.





    subaru3169: hmm..  new knight rider or old??




    Sonychak: I honestly have yet to watch either show. The only experience I have of the old one is from 'I love the ___" episodes on VH1 and commercials for the new one. I would however have to choose the old one. It drove the Hoff and I bet it shagged with more ladies than the new one ever has.




    elelkewljay:

    1) what organizations are you involved with at sfsu?
    2) what inspires your hair styles?
    3) what's the one thing that your gf does that gets you to do anything she asks?


    Sonychak:

    1) I used to be affiliated with the 'Asian Student Union' at SFSU when I first started out. This year I don't really associate with the club much, reason is because new people, new core, new generation of members. We oldies have mostly left and are too busy to still be in it. But to be honest, a lot of the new members kinda annoy me and there are some who are still childish.

    2) My hairstyles? Haha, what hairstyles? I currently just buzz my hair. I have no style... I just do this because it is easy to take care of. I would love however to get writings on my buzz cuts like 'Sonlay Owns You'. It would be awesome.

    3) Is when she guilt trips me that gets me. She says she "unintentionally" guilt trips me, but I feel like she purposely is at times. When she does that, it gets me to do anything. It is easy to make me feel guilty.


    RoadlessTaken: Which Xangan would you go gay for?  hahaha







    Sonychak: Gosh, always have to choose the difficult and awkward questions huh Alex? Well I guess I would choose... Parry Shen. Mostly because he was the actor from 'Better Luck Tomorrow'.







    xchinkylaydee:     What type of asian are you? and .. do you think boba is awesome?








    Sonychak: I still don't know what you mean by this? Haha. But I guess I am the type of Asian who doesn't know how to speak his parent's native tongue yet understands it. I guess I am a rare breed that can only comprehend the language, but has difficulty speaking it back. It has it goods sides and bad sides.

    And yes I do like boba! Especially when it is with mango or bananas!




    idrinkvitasoy:
    1) Why are you so cool?
    2) Do you think you are pretty?
    3) Ass or tits?






    Sonychak:
    1) My uncle is secretly Denzel Washington. I got my cool genes from that bad mama jamma.
    2) I think I am more than pretty. I think I am quite the stud muffin.
    3) Ass... I don't know why, but I love grabbing onto those rather than tits. Nothing against tits. I love boobies too, but a great butt is rarer to find than a pair of boobs I think.




    karoline1982:     so....Whats your number?! Haha! JK! I'm going to ask something simple: Whats your favourite colour? Why is it your favourite?







    Sonychak: My favorite color is yellow and it is my favorite because I always digged it since I was little. I was the type of child who wanted to be different and liked things that weren't common. Plus yellow is sweet.







    theRyeCatcher: If you could be in any cartoon, what would it be? And what do you think about these new cartoons?!





    Sonychak: If I could be in any cartoon I would be in... Pokemon. Having a pet and then battling others for badges would be awesome. I of course would go on dates with Misty too. And for new ones... some are okay, but a lot are terrible. The only new one I like that makes me laugh is 'Sponge Bob Square Pants'.




    noreen_n:     how old are you?







    Sonychak: I am currently 21 years old. I am actually going to be turning 22 on January 3rd. It is crazy to think over how old I am now. I still feel like I am 18. Oh, I hate growing old.







    Sincerely_Winnie:     If you could go to ONE place in the world right now, where would you go?








    Sonychak: I really want to go the Easter Islands. I don't know why, but I want to see those huge head stone sculptures before I die. It might be a short trip, but they look incredibly awesome. Plus the land looks beautiful!










    Bamzilicious26:    Are you hungry?

    What's the weirdest thing you've done?

    Are there any super random/secret things you do on a daily basis that you wouldn't usually let the public know about? (like i like to take the laptop in the bathroom with me to use and keep me occupied :P)

    Sonychak: Yes, I am currently hungry right now. I am actually making Chicken Adobo for the family tonight since I am at my parent's for the weekend.

    Weirdest thing? I ate cooked bugs, live shrimp, turtle eggs, and drank duck blood.

    I secretly talk to people online while I take poos. I also secretly answer my phone when I am pooing too. I usually don't tell them until I flush the toilet, haha.


    xpokerface90: Would you like to see the sunrise or sunset? and why?






    Sonychak: I like watching sunsets over sunrises. The reason is because I find the sky prettier when it is going down rather than when it is coming up. It just makes me feel warm and comfortable. Plus I don't have to wake up early for sunsets.




    frozencherries: do you like any weird foods/weird food combinations? do you prefer odd or even numbers? do you play sudoku? can you hoola-hoop? can you sing? can you draw?  are my questions too late?


    Sonychak: I honestly love eating weird foods, especially when they are ones that gross others here in America. Whenever I travel outside of the U.S. I try to always eat something that is different from the American culture. It is adventurous and exciting.

    I prefer odd numbers... I guess...

    No, I do not play sudoku. Was never my thing. Tetris is more of a puzzle game I enjoy playing.

    I can hula hoop... for about 5 hip movements. After that, not really.


    You didn't see my video from when I sang to my girlfriend at karaoke? I have a terrible voice, but I enjoy karaoking.

    Sonlay Singing to Michelle from ATM on Vimeo.

    No, I cannot draw. I can write a sweet signature though! and no your questions are not late.

    xyummyxnoodlesx:
    If you ran out of toilet paper, would you
    1) skip it and finish up
    2) run out with pants down to find some
    3) wipe with anything near
    4) wash it off

    Sonychak:
    I would probably wipe with anything near. Anything to get the remains off my butt is a friend to me. I wish you gave the option of calling out for help because I would probably do that.







    Starrynight45: What is the inspiration behind the quote on your site header?








    Sonychak: Honestly, I made that header like 4-5 years ago when I was a Junior or Senior in high school. We had to make portfolios of our work and needed a header for it. So I decided to make something not serious and funny.

    I just found it recently so I decided to make it my header.









    Thank you for the people who participated by asking me questions. If you would still like to ask me a question, go for it. I will try to answer it and post it up on this same blog later.

  • Questions for Sonlay

    I feel like I haven't had much to blog about lately and that I've been neglectful to xanga so what I decided to do is to let you readers ask me any questions you would like. Many xangans have done this earlier and I decided to finally jump onto this bandwagon because to be frank... I want to blog about something it is just I don't have any ideas on what to blog about so this is my solution.

    So ask your questions away Xangans! Just don't ask for my number ladies... I'm a taken man.

  • I like to compete in stupid activities

    I don't know about you, but I am competitive. So competitive that I like to compete in stupid activities.

    Today in my lab for 'Intro to Research Psych' class we had to do experiments. Every group in our class has to make an experiment and report about it in a paper by the end of the semester. And since we have to make experiments, everyone in the class must participate in an experiment for every group.

    In one of the groups, I was paired with two other classmates. We had to sit in a chair position with our back against the wall.

    In the experiment, one of my classmates immediately stopped, but this other guy and I were still going at it. We kept looking at each other and joking about the other wanting to quit and how the other is probably cramping up. We were supposed to stay in that position until we started feeling uncomfortable, but my classmate and I went about 5 minutes straight without wanting to quit. He evnetually gave up and that is when I decided to stop.

    Funny thing is... we had to do it again two minutes later. We were unaware of this in the experiment so we were like when they said we had to do it again. And of course... I beat him again. We cramped up fast this time, but I didn't let loose until he decided to give up. I won my bragging rights and felt superior for the day.

    (We were told that we were the longest they had so far in the experiment. Like 2-3 times longer than the other classmates)


    Oh I love to compete in stupid activities

  • My Roommate Left Me a Gift Sunday Night

    To my surprise, my roommate left me a gift in the kitchen Sunday Night.



    How cute, it was even wrapped.



    Oh there's my gift...!

    You want to know how I know it was from him? I know because I heard his thumper feet walking in the hallway dropping this dish off at the kitchen. I also know it is him because him and I were the only roommates home at that hour.

    He's 26 years old and still knows how to be a filthy child.

    Later Days...

    P.S. I cleaned that shit for him because he ended up not coming back out from his room, but instead went to sleep.

  • Potential Bay Area Xanga Meet (Update 2.0)

    Original Entry on the Nor Cal Bay Area Xanga Meet (Posted Oct 20th)
    Potential Bay Area Xanga Meet (Update 2.0) (Posted Nov 2nd)
    Potential Bay Area Xanga Meet (Update 3.0) (Posted Nov 16th)
    Thu's Entry on Bay Area Xanga Meet for Dec 27th (Posted Nov 16th)

    First, let me start off by saying I am going to call this Potential Xanga Meet the 'Bay Area Xanga Meet' rather than the 'Nor Cal Xanga Meet' for now on based me feeling that Nor Cal is being misrepresented in this title because of the meet specifically being in San Francisco (the center of the Bay Area) rather than further up in Nor Cal.

    Second, I think I have finalized two days we can choose from for this Xanga Meet.

    We can either pick:
    1) December 27th, 2009, Sunday

    or

    2) December 28th, 2009, Monday

    or

    3) We can hang out both December 27th and 28th, 2009.

    The Event:

    1) Lunch (possibly at Fisherman's Wharf)
    2) Night Tour at Alcatraz @ 4:20 PM
    3) Going to a bar called Chug Pub right after the night tour for the 21+ Xangans


    Fisherman's Wharf


    My future apartment, Alcatraz

     
    My favorite bar, Chug Pub. See that thing in the middle? That is a 'Chug Tower' and it holds about 9-10 pints of beer for only $30. You also get a free choice of fries or nachos.

    I don't mind doing either one because on both days I will still be in San Francisco. If you would like to choose another day and if majority agree, I don't mind changing it, but for now it looks like these two days are the options I would like us to vote on.

    I know for sure my friend and I will be doing the night tour so if some of you are worried that the event won't go down. Don't worry because I will for sure be on that boat to Alcatraz. I also know that Thu aka elelkewljay and Alex aka RoadlessTaken will be coming.


    This picture will probably make 75% of female xangans want to come to this event now.


    This xangan will probably make 80% of men from xanga want to come to this event now.

     
    This picture for a fact make 96% of xangans want to come now.

    So if you could please comment on what day you would prefer (that includes voting for both days if you would like), if you are able to come, if you can do lunch, night tour, bar, or all three, and rec this blog so others could read this and confirm if they are attending or not.

    If you confirm and we get a definite date I will message you personally the website and how to register for tickets for the Night Tour.

    I will be updating the list of people confirming every hour or so, but I won't time stamp this blog so by rec'ing this blog it will help others to be able to see this blog.

    Confirmed:
    - Sonychak
    - Sonychak's Beezy aka girlfriend aka Michelle
    - Sonychak's Homie aka Gian (Pronounced John)
