Summer Daze
It’s beautiful, yet sweltering, days like today that really make you feel like its summertime, regardless if you’re working or still in school.
DJ Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince - Summertime by FoodWithSole The kind of days that make you get in your car, blast some Tupac and Biggie, and cruise 2 miles an hour, so everybody sees you. The kind of days that make kids run through...

Kendrick Lamar ft. Dom Kennedy - She Needs Me...
I’ve been waiting for Kendrick Lamar and Dom Kennedy to do a song together. I feel like this is only the beginning. Look forward to big things from both of these artists.

Nike Dunk High
In a time when general release Dunk’s are a dime a dozen, it is refreshing to see Nike go back to some simple colorways while still experimenting with different materials. A perfect example of this is this recently released Nike Dunk High. The majority of the upper is made up of a light charcoal grey nubuck and is accented by the team orange midsole and laces. The white swoosh is an...

This is a first of a series of posts combining photos of what I’m literally having for breakfast, and the sneaker shot for that day. Hope you enjoy. There’s more to come.

Ming's Table
My favorite spot for Chinese food in Vegas is Ming’s Table at Harrah’s Casino. I know it seems an unlikely place, but I’m the type of person that, if I find a good restaurant that serves the food I like, I’m sticking to it until another place can top it. So far, Ming’s Table is undefeated. They have a mostly Chinese menu, but also offer some Japanese dishes and sushi. However, I always go there...

Treasure Hunt
I am going to California this weekend to visit my parents, and of course I want to celebrate Father’s Day with my Dad, but I also have another goal this weekend. With the recent retirement of Ken Griffey Jr., I was pleasantly reminded that I had his Upper Deck Rookie Card when I was a kid. Unfortunately, I don’t remember where I put it after the last time I checked it’s value...

Bachi Burger Review
I finally got a chance to try Bachi Burger, and see if they live up to the hype. I tried the Kiki’s Burger, Truffle Parmesan Fries, and Sweet Potato Fries. I also ordered a Green Milk Tea Boba, but it wasn’t anything to write about. The Kiki’s burger consisted of sautéed Shiitake & Eryngi mushrooms, caramelized bacon sweet onion marmalade, Gruyere cheese, on a Ciabatta Bun...

Jordan 1 Fall 2010
Usually I’m all about original colorways for Jordans, especially Jordan 1’s. However, you can’t go wrong with “University” colorblocking, and of course I’m going to appreciate any sneaker showcasing UNLV colors (even though the official colorway on these is ‘wolf-grey/spice’) These will definitely be slept on, but in my opinion, they’re...

Food For A Cause
I am by no means, a big fan of Applebee’s. However, this is a great organization and two very important causes. If you live in the Las Vegas area, on Wednesday June 16th, the following Applebees will donate 15% of your check to the Engineers Without Borders Las Vegas Chapter. The money raised will help fund their Ghana Orphanage Project and Nicaragua Water Treatment Project. Just present the flyer...

Late Night Breakfast
One of the perks of living in Las Vegas is you can get whatever you want, whenever you want. Even if it’s steak and eggs at 2 in the morning. Perfect way to end a night.

Release Reminder - Air Jordan VI "Infrared" Pack
Personally, I’m not a huge fan of the VI’s in general, but I have to admit that the “Infrared” Pack is probably the best pack to release since the 11/12 Countdown Pack. No spending 3 bills for the “pack Jordan’s that come with the whack pair” this time. Jordan Brand took two of the most coveted colorways of the VI, and put them in a pack together. How...

All Black Everything
“Way before Jay said it, Homie, we was all black.” -Dom Kennedy “All black everything” has been a Southern California staple since NWA came straight outta Compton. Whether its black Chucks, black Vans, or black Cortez’s, if you grew up in So Cal in the last 20+ years you’ve owned a pair. I am no exception. There’s just something timeless about a pair of...

Slidin' Thru
This year, the gourmet food truck craze finally hit Las Vegas. The Slider Truck has taken the city by storm by serving up gourmet sliders daily across the Las Vegas valley. I finally got to try The Slider Truck this weekend, and they did not disappoint. I tried the Pulled Porkie (slow-cooked pork, caramelized jalapeno, bbq sauce), Pep Pep (lettuce, tomato, bacon, onion, cheddar, super sauce),...

This weekend I took a quick trip to Hoover Dam. I figured it wouldn’t be right for me to graduate with a degree in Civil Engineering without actually visiting one of the greatest Civil Engineering accomplishments ever. Of course, I took a lot of pictures. So, for your enjoyment, here are some ‘Dam’ Sneaker Shots.
