The trip to the Dallas Europa has officialy began. I would usually fly to events but in the last 6 months I've flown a total of 12 times. Including 4, 16 to 18 hour flights from the US to Australia and going back again in 5 weeks. I haven't taken a bus for this kind of trip since I was back in college!!! I'm just tired of flying for a bit! First stop on this journey is el cajon. For now its nice there's only 10 people on the bus whom one is sick!!! SHYT!!!
Just outside of san diego county lines, actually out in el centro. I'm so glad I live in san diego. There's not a damn thing out here! Well its time for another meal, chicken and japanese sweet potato!!!!
We just arrived in Calexico!!! Huh!!! What's that california and mexico? Lol!
So far on this bus since we left at 7am, the lady behind me hasn't stopped talking!!! Omg. We just left Yuma, Arizona and omg its beyond hot out here. At our next stop, I'm gonna try an experiment! Gonna try to see if I can cook an egg on the street!!!! Lol!!
Just arrived here in phoenix!!!! Its a 110 degrees! Damn! Just saw a guy get taken away because he didn't have his papers or ID nothing! Damn!!! His girl is crying her head off!!! The worst part he was native american indian!!!! Not even Hispanic.
Well we are 2 stops away from Dallas and the worst thing happened right now in which I don't agree and neither does the rest of the people on the bus. The bus driver left a lady and her baby at a rest stop. Here's the story: the driver told us 25min for a rest stop, that's it. " If your not on the bus before I am then I'm leaving without you, the next bus comes in 6hours". So the lady that was hispanic asked the bus driver in spanish, how long do we have he said I don't understand your language. WOW! So we left without her! We tried to tell the bus driver she left all her baby stuff onboard including her papers!!! He didn't care! She said her loss!
Just arrived in Dallas and the hotel is 2blocks away, do I walk or pay $20 for a taxi? My azz is walking! Lol! Turns out its only one block! Not bad! .
Its thursday evening and upon checking in at the hotel, I have already seen and said hi to Shawn Ray, George Farah, Tony Freeman, among many others that were down in the lobby. Time to go rest and see if my girl Julieann needs anything.
Its friday morning and we went downstairs to have a little breakfast. At the buffet we saw hany rambod, kim oddo, bob cicherllo, joel stubbs, markus ruhl, adela garcia among many others. Since I'm dieting I was limited to egg whites and grits. As julieann was getting ready I went to go do cardio for an hour.
Let's head to prejudging, First stop had to be at our sponsors booth, GENr8. This expo had everything from low riders, mma, martial arts and even strongman competitions. Very well ran expo and a lot of fun. Prejudging was great, watched the pro bikini, pro 202, pro figure but missed the pro open men. There were a lot of pro debuts, mark alvisi, shawn rhoden, seth feroce, dave goodin and many more. In the bikini division I agreed with the top 3. Figure division was a bit confusing not sure what to look for in figure but i had alicia harris for the win and turner second or third. In the 202's it wasn't close. Seth Feroce had it nailed down! In the open there were a lot of boos the first place winner had it locked! He looked great but the placings from 2nd to 5th were wrong. This is such a subjective sport we have but u still gotta love it. Judges are human! As for Julieann she ended up in 10th. Not bad for being 70 percent. We have 6weeks to go until she steps on the Olympia stage and trust me she will be ready to rock!!! As the show ended we headed back to the hotel for a quick shower and change and headed out to dinner with some friends to the cheescake factory. It was a fun time by all!!! Stay tuned for the trip back home!!!! Lol!
