02/04/2012: It's always a challenge waking up early on a Saturday morning, but it's not so bad when the reason is golf. Yes, I use four sticks, the golf bag & the mirror... sometimes there is also a chair involved...

After my golf lesson, I headed over the San Mateo Bridge to play a mini golf tournament with Joe & friends at Crystal Springs GC.   We made four teams of twosome, paired by handicap.  The final score resulted in a two-way tie after 18 holes, and the ranger was nice enough to let us play #1 again as a sudden death play-off.  Team Joe & Daniel basically crushed the other team in the playoff- we didn’t need to finish the hole, but it would have been something close to +2 vs. +10.  Special thanks to Joe for setting everything up!

02/04/2012: I've never crossed the San Mateo Bridge to come into the Peninsula! It was, for whatever reason, somewhat exciting.

02/04/2012: Crystal Springs GC. Beautiful!

02/04/2012: Go Blue! Go Guinness! Go Heineken!

02/04/2012: Super nice ranger took pictures for us on different holes from different angles! Joe, Me, Janet, Eli.

02/04/2012: After golf dinner @ Mingalaba in downtown Burlingame. The restaurant had a long line, but it was well worth it. They were also nice enough to leave hot tea outside for people waiting!

02/04/2012: Fantastic dinner, especially since it came from the winners pot!

I took one of my last free weekends (though I’ve been saying that for quite some time now) to head up to Tomales Bay for some oyster shucking.  The trip was planned last minute, but everybody pitched in and it turned out great.  We couldn’t have asked for better weather, the tri-tip and 갈비 was tender & delicious, and the oysters, of course, were amazing!

01/28/2012: I shuck, I eat. The end.

01/28/2012: Fun stuff.

01/28/2012: Yummy stuff.

01/28/2012: Ssam; 쌈.

The KAPS kick-off meeting in 2009 was a start of a great series of events for me.  Even though I moved to the Bay Area in the beginning of 2008, I had not met anybody outside of my already known circle (awesome circle may it be).  When essentially everybody moved away, I had little choice but to meet new friends.  I somehow ended up finding KAPS, emailed Andrew who was the president at the time, and attended the meeting.  Now a three year veteran of KAPS, and going on fourth, the meeting had a very different feeling- familiarity.  The board members are mostly friends, I am doing more catching up instead of meeting new people, and instead of being introduced, I was introducing.  KAPS has evolved quite a bit in my three years, and I’m looking forward to what 2012 will bring!

02/26/2012: KAPS after party @ 25 Lusk. Hendrick's & Tonic (fever tree tonic) ftw!

02/26/2012: The after, after party at a location that still remains a mystery...

01/21/2012: Happy Birthday to Hyeeun, and Congratulations on the engagement to both Hyeeun & Daniel!!!

01/21/2012: Yummy food and drinks @ Bistro AIX & @ Nectar

01/21/2012: A short hop to another one of Joe's amazing dinner parties. The ssam above was ginormous in both size and delicious-ness, I almost died trying to eat it in one bite! Special kudos to the meetup crew for making it and feeding me!

01/21/2012: Happy Birthday to Lezlee!!!

We took a last minute Napa trip with the twins, google co-workers, Peter & Jen!  It was a rough morning for a few, luckily I ducked out a little early being that I had to drive.  I’m getting very good at leaving parties early (early as in midnight….), which wasn’t always something I could do in the past.  We’ll see if this is a trend I can keep in 2012.

01/15/2012: First stop: Hess Winery! I've been wanting to make a visit here for at least a couple years now! Well worth the extra 30 minute drive!

01/15/2012: Hess has an art gallery on the second and third floors, and the building itself is pretty cool in that it is somehow integrated with the winery.

01/15/2012: Hess, beautiful inside as well outside!

01/15/2012: Second stop: Lunch @ V. Sattui!

01/15/2012: Last winery stop, my favorite Silverado! It was a little more crowded than usual, and my usual people weren't there... oh wells, still great service. Peter is awake!

01/15/2012: Dinner @ Bistro Jeanty in Yountville to finish off the Napa trip!
