A Day in the Life of a Teppanyaki Hibachi Chef!

Hibachi Teppanyaki Training

Now I am proficient in straight sword, broad sword, and teppanyaki spatula! This was for some sort of documentary/commercial type shoot. A friend told Eliver and I last minute so I actually woke up at 6:30am all groggy and tired from a night of sake bombing and stumbled into my Hibachi chef suit. Anyways, check out my Hibachi skillzzz.

In other news, I got Angels Tea business cards made. I think they look pretty nice.

Quick Recap of the week:

Thurs - Trained at UCLA gym. It was good seeing old faces.

Fri - My friend Eric came in from up north. We went to Opera.

Sat - Picked up Eric from Venice beach and on the way home got a ticket. I got the ticket because a lady just put her foot down in the cross walk as I was finishing a left turn. Went out to Halo with Eric and Hue. Ended up chilling at that one pizza place until almost 4am.

Sun - Did some light sparring/24 Hour Fitness training. Went to Sherry/Zero’s awesome Luau with Glen. I played with fire. I messed around and played with those fire torches that are used in fire performances.

Mon - Went to SCWA for some real hardcore training. It was good seeing Sifu Ho since I havent been back since after team trials. Dennis, Ngan, Andrew, and Justin Yu were there. We did each section 4 times for empty hand and then same thing for short weapon. On top of that I did one full form and 3/4 of a full form for straight sword. Came back and had a meeting with a friend over some marketing points for my tea demographic. It really helped clear my path and direction for the business.

Tues - Cold Case auditions. The reading was fun. I was the son of an asian store owner that meddled with the mafia. Got a FLAT TIRE when I got back to my car. Maybe somebody didn’t want me to make it to that audition! Spent the whole rest of the day getting my tire repaired. Ryan, Joanna, and Yenny swung by. Did some guitaring and then went for dinner and sakes.

Wed - Woke up at the crack of dawn. Went from child to Hibachi Chef in an AC-less room with fireballs (literally) and nothing but warm water in the course of 10 hours. Trained at 99 after Teppanyaki-ing

Thurs - Got a whole bunch of errands done like getting a printer, mailing out tea orders, going to the bank, paying bills, and of course training wushu.
