San Diego Gaslamp and Night Life

I think my birthday has yet to be out done since my 21st despite my best efforts.  Part of it is because my 21st had a lot of unexpected unplanned surprises.  It was a time when MTV's first film Better Luck Tomorrow was coming out and I was helping promote the release.  The opening night party was at a club I was running at the time in down town.  It was also Climax's first event in San Diego.  While SDAFF (San Diego Asian Film Festival www.sdaff.org !) was an official sponsor of the event only me and my crew was able to get in backstage because of our working relation with the club.  That bday weekend I also sponsored the party put on by the directors brother.  Somehow we were able to fit in a BBQ and birthday dinner at Hooters.

I've  since have tried to redo having a 4 day celebration with lack luster success.  For some of my friends to participate money was an issue.  Sadly, some groups of friends are fueding or have had bad beef in the past so to avoid each other neither invites show up.  Then there are my friends who have told me that they don't feel "cool" enough to go (I'll save this topic for another post).  Other's don't have enough people to go with or the right person to go with or whatever.  I think the way I've promoted my bday has made it too commercialized too.  Ah well.

I'm pretty excited for my upcoming party April 19th.  If I don't have fun at least the pictures will be awesome!
