September 7,2007 when we left for las vegas with Hector and Yusuke!

  i have been in Las Vegas many times and every time i visited the strip
it's  always been a memorable one and this last trip was no exception
and you know why? two of my friends who are very close with each travelled with
me,namely Hector and Yusuke!
  they say that three is a crowd but not to us because we are so close and
have known each other very well even Yusuke is just a new found
friend!we had so much fun in Las Vegas from the moment we checked in @
Bally's Hotel & Casino, we hurried up to change outfits as i usually
like to do for pictorial purposes, hahaha,then go straight to the slot
machines and luckily one of us won for we have something to pay for our
dinner buffet!
  on the second day, before we ate lunch at the Flamingo Hotel,my friend
Yusuke helped me in experimenting a new hairstyle and as you can see in
the picture i am sporting a new look! (nakuryentahan look?)hahaha but
you be the judge if i look good,ok?)
  as soon as we reached the hotel's restaurant, we asked about the price
of the buffet and i backed out because it's $25.00 each person and i
said to them i'd rather eat at mcdonald's and spend  5 bucks only,they
did not stop me and what shall i do?
  i passed by the casino and each time i pass a slot machine,someone hit's
the jackpot and the second one too, so, i decided to try my luck at the
3rd aisle and randomly played one of the slot machines and voila, i hit
the jackpot as well, i was so happy and i returned to my friends right
away at the buffet and showed them the money,they were shocked and from
then on we decided to go on shopping spree at the Designer's Outlet Mall
and i bought them something to remember from my winnings and i said to
myself that's it for me and never played again for that day!by the way,
we promoted the website, by wearing the www.mikeygatal.com shirt
everytime we went bar hopping and i strike a pose ala Chippendale style
too @ Rio's Hotel!
  lastly,it's not about the money but the beautiful friendship that
blossomed into a wonderful relationship between the three of us that
matters most and life is too short,so make the most out of it,ok?

i love you all,

mikey

"I posted the below message on myspace and found it very therapeutic.

Yesterday, September 3rd we lost our baby girl, my niece, Kirstie Lyn

Stewart. She passed away in her sleep. This little girl had so much

personality and was talented. She just completed her first week of

school - this was her last year in junior high school before she went on

to high school. She made cheer again this year and thought she was

running with the "big guns" in junior high school. Kirstie was a

friendly little girl with soooo many friends. Kirstie was always

listening to music, dancing (the kid was always bouncing off the walls

with energy), on the phone with her friends and always making her faces

(like her uncle Anthony).I can't believe she's gone.

The only comforting thoughts I have is that she's with my grandparents

and my godmother and she's being looked after well."
