Pho bulous.
So, once upon a nasty day in North Hollywood, a Chang and I ventured off to Pho 99999 on Sherman Way to get our asian on. It’d been a muggy, rainy ass day and we had been dealing with satan’s whorebag all morning… (Satan’s Whorebag will be a separate blog discussion)…we were hungry and beat. We sat, ordered, waited… and in from the muggy ass rain, came...

On another note. I’m so frustrated with myself right now…I dont know how I’m sitting here allowing myself to be so damn…useless. Haiti. At first I didn’t want to see the reality of this catastrophe…how selfish am I. I’m embarrassed to call myself human right now.

Sorry, we gotta be friends on The Book for you to be able to see this:P

Three movies for the price of one. Fellow movie buff/roommate/co-director, Cobs and I went movie hopping yesterday…
2:25pm, Sherlock Holmes (2hr 14min) I expected it to be a good movie only because of the actors so it wasn’t like a “WOOWWWWEEEEE!!!” Movie. It was as good as I expected…maybe a sprinkle better:) Kudos to Robert Downey...

Top Three Favorite Sounds in the World:
3. Gravel crunching under your, or someone else’s, footstep…preferrably slowly.
2. Get a notebook/book. Wet a couple pages. Let it dry completely. Turn a page slowly. Listen.

Like the inside of my closet, extremities have always been my life…Heels or sneakers, dresses or sweats…nothing really in between. I always hated the fact that I didnt ever really have anything casual to wear… It always takes me a mini effort on days where I just want to run simple errands. But come shopping time…it never fails, I always end up going home with a piece for...
Man versus Wild
I think I’m supposed to be a more pratical/logical person…but as I get older (and wiser, I hope) I feel like alot more of my day to day is relied upon my instinct and intuition. And I think I’m ok with that:) In fact, I’ve been making a more conscientious effort to just go with the flow and act without thinking too much about the small ‘maybes’ or...

Saw NINE tonight with some ’bux co-workers. Nice air tonight…crisp and refreshing… It’s like everyone and their mom was really over 2009 and today, being day 2 of the new year, was still a celebration. Now if we can keep this momentum going, the next 363 days shoule be ahhhmazing.
Anyhoo. NINE as a movie was coo… NINE as a musical… pretty amazing. Well,...
Day One.
New Year. (Happy 2010 BTW!) New Look. (Diggin’ my new arrangement, I must say…) Same Me? (Definitely trying not to be.)

Elie Wiesel
(Excerpt from his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech)
“….And then I explained to him how naïve we were, that the world did know and remained silent.
And that is why I swore never to be silent whenever wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation.
We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.
Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.

You know when you’re EXTREMELY thirsty…
…like right after a packed dance class at millennium and you can’t find a dollar to save your life to buy a bottle from the front desk and everyone around you that you’re supposed to go eat with after class is loitering like a muther because dancers are kings and queens of loitering and other people are offering you a sip from...

If Beauty was the Beast...
So I am a Disney kid… I grew up watching and living through the magical world of Disney. I was unsettled when Disney bought Pixar in fear that ‘old school’ Disney would be lost forever. BUT. It is a new generation… a generation deprived if you ask me, but a new one nonetheless. Earlier this summer, Disney secured a buyout for Marvel Entertainment for like six billion...
Anniversary.

Today a VIP of mine…(Very Important Pisces) pointed out to me that I am as old as the alphabet is long…
hmph.
Then I realized. That we. Will never stop graduating. We SHOULD never stop graduating. We should always strive to be better than who we were yesterday and constantly work to be the ultimate human. How bittersweet is it that I only have 364 more days of...

Once upon a time there were two gay boys and two often happy girls. The four often took pleasure in fine dining and surely redefined what it meant to ‘be loud’. Pre-determination brought them together as they all shared a love of fashion, art, dance and the male form. One day, the two gay boys and the two often happy girls realized that normal human language was not enough to satisfy...
World Humanitarian Day
Alright.
So yea, global warming.
“Yea….global warming…yah yah… blah blah we’re gonna die…”
Hey. So listen real quick.
The End is inevitable. Yes Yes. But most of us probably dont think too much of the reality of global warming because we wont be around to be affected by it. So let’s take a small moment of our empty time to ‘think’...
Endangered Species
Hmph.
It’s been a while… I think? I’ve been writing alot… not blogging though. Every now and then I find myself in hater/hippie mode where I repel technology and everything that comes with it… Why have we all mastered ‘saying something’ in 150 characters or less? Is that a good or bad thing? It does have its perks… But. It’s also made us...
We are the animals.
Peace, guys. Peace.

Training Day
Why do the same 2-3 annoying ass people always show up in your training class? You know, the ones with the dumbass, pointless questions… The ones that just like hearing the sound of their voice and think others do too…
Yay for training day.
On the other hand, I’m really excited about my new JAY OH BEE.

Was just looking through some past pictorals and came across this one…
Two seconds in, I noticed a dirt mark on my computer screen and so I ever-so-gently started wiping my screen down…
This damn stain/mark wouldnt come off…
and then I realized.
Shit, that’s lipstick on my chin! My unstable mouth somehow rubbed off some red onto my chin…

Super Human
God. I don’t even know where or how to begin… There are absolutely no words or gestures that can explain or sum up what I am feeling…what I have been feeling for the past few days.
I am. Broken.
As an almost-psych major I know that there are 5 stages a person goes through when suffering a loss.
I am drowning. Stuck in denial, filled with anger and depression keeps making an...

The animal rights organization wants the president to be more humane next time to the insects.

As reported by the Associated Press (AP), animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has also taken notice, and is now calling on the president to take...

Chapter 13
So I’ve hit the ultimate low.
Well, at least the lowest so far in The Chronicles of a Super Human. (Which is the title of my future book, by the way). I mean, I’ve met myself at my lowest emotional, mental and physical states before but they were all at separate points in my life. Never all at once.
Today marks the 37th day of being at a record low emotional, mental, physical and...
The COOLEST Factor
If I could do this for a living, I would.
THIS is my absolute kind of amusement. One has to reach a certain ‘higness’ in his/her career or reputation to be able to pull off this kind of comedy. If Justin Timberlake did Dick in a Box when he was just starting off with N*Sync, it wouldnt have been NEARLY as successful as it is now…at least in my opinion. Like, I went to his...
Guilty Pleasure
So as some of you may know, the New Moon trailer made its debut today during the MTV Movie Awards. I, of course, was sleeping because well, I do that. However, my roommate Cobey, a Twilight fanatic, caught the trailer online and couldn’t stop raaaaving about it! She’d seen it about 3 times by the time she got to me and repeatedly stated that it was a must-see. As much as I wanted...
