You made it...
Well, she was a Laotian-American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life
Somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to

What they're saying about me

"She's a nut! Not too sure how else to describe an "at-first-glance" seemingly quiet girl who dances like a chicken when she thinks no one else is looking, who likes to pass off her "made up" answer for fact, until you look at her and see her hopelessly trying not to crack a smile, who WITHOUT FAIL remembers to put a line of dental floss in her purse before she goes out (and isn't afraid to use it after dinner, thankfully NOT at the table!!).  I can always count on her to know the hottest hollywood gossip, and to dance till all hours of the morning with me."

"My co-worker just told me that there was a premiere for Bridget Jones 2 last night, just blocks from my work, and we missed it!  Hugh Grant, my beloved and the framework upon which my future husband is based, was just blocks away, breathing the same oxygen, and I missed it!  If I had a friend here who was as savvy with E-news as you are, this catastrophe would never have occurred!"

Guess what I heard...

Oh my god!! This donut is so good!  - Ras about a Krispy Kreme donut

Just because I've been drinking doesn't mean I can't start shit.  - Tom B.

You know what they say, if your burps smell like shit?  You've been eating shit. - Melvin

"I want to do! But what is paintball? There is no such word in dictionary." - Suwa, Japanese teacher

"I am now skipping church to see if I am going to win my bids!!!"  "YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA.....I won the felt tip pens!!!!!!!!  Yippeee...."who let the dogs out...arf, arf, arf, arf"...."let me hear you say Y..M..C..A"....oh yah, who's your daddy!!!" - Renee

"I was sitting in my office the other day and I suddenly got this horrible wrenching pain in my ankle.  It really felt like I got a type two sprain just from sitting there.  The strangest thing.  Too bad cause I saw that Richard Gere movie and I got some Swayzerific moves."  - I asked Tom R. if he was going to dance this weekend.

Other favorite quotes:

A gift is an offering.  A selfless act that adds something to someone's life.  Something that they need.

Have you ever walked by something and you just had this feeling that someone you knew would absolutely love it?

Faith is believing when there is no rational reason to believe.

Homer: "We Americans are England's children... I know we don't call as much as we should, or aren't as well behaved as our goody two shoes brother, Canada... who I should mention has never had a girlfriend... I'm just sayin'..."

Anything less than mad, passionate, extraordinary love is a waste of time. There are too many mediocre things in life, and love should not be one of them.

The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.

When your heart speaks, take good notes.

Travel has a way of stretching the mind. The stretch comes not from travel's immediate rewards, the inevitable myriad new sights, smells and sounds, but with experiencing firsthand how others do differently what we believed to be the right and only way.

It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.

Sometimes to see the light, you have to risk the dark.

Chuseok under way
9/24/2004

I had a GREAT day today, for anyone that wants to know.  I taught for 3 hours (which I normally do on Fridays), and ran out of there as fast as I could (which I normally don't do).  Most people know that I really like my job, but I wanted to start enjoying the long Chuseok holiday as fast as I could.  Chuseok is Korea's Thanksgiving, and presents are usually given when you go to somebody's house.  This year, my director gave us a box of peaches, which is much better than last year's gift box of soap and toothpaste.  Even though I like Spam, I wouldn't want a 6 piece gift set of it, either.

This last month, I haven't really been perusing as many fun sites, like I normally do.  So I did some of that today... caught up on entertainment news and browsed around.  Of course, the biggest thing happening lately has been Britney Spears wedding.  I wonder if she rapped during the reception.  

Britney Spears got married, but did she fake it?  On Ebay, somebody picked up a rose from the wedding, off the ground, and sold it for $560!  Insane!  I think I should just go back home to the States, live in LA with my grandmother, and just hang around town to pick up celebrities tossed out Starbuck's cups, used gum, cigarette butts, and anything else that stupid people on Ebay would buy.  Oh yeah, Eminem's condom wrapper went for a staggering $1.79.  Very sad...

 


How absolutely cheezzzy is this?  They gave away goody bags, which included a key chain with a picture of themselves on it.  [gagging]



Maybe she did fake it!  Here's an authentic memo from the M.I.L.F. trainee, herself.  [See below]

 

This was too funny...  These are pictures of the bridesmaids and groomsmen.  You can read the full article here.  Among other tantalizing tidbits, the guests were given gift bags which includes a pair of jeans, candy, shoelaces, and the key chain above.  And as a connoisseur of fonts (current favorite is P22 FLLW TERRACOTTA), I found this quote funny. 

After the ceremony, the guests walked out of the house, the majority of the guys dressed in white sweatsuits with the word “Pimp” written, in Brush Script font (considered by webmasters and graphic designers as the biggest p*ssy font in the world).

 

To give her some credit, it wasn't ALL this tacky.  The participants actually wore nice outfits for the ceremony itself.


 

On a Britney side note... Now, all the Cheetos and Red Bull runs make perfect sense...

 

Note the Fanta, Cheetos, cookies, etc.  Red Bull is on the next aisle.  (But, to her defense, if I was back home at a regular supermarket, I'd be buying Cheetos and Red Bull too.)

Rolling up on a cafeteria tray

The Russian, lesbian singing duo of Tatu launches a comeback as man-eating hetrosexuals.  Would you really call it a comeback, after leaving the music industry for 1 1/2 years???

Speaking of lesbians... Remember that Sex and the City episode, when Samantha switches teams and tries out a lesbian relationship?  Well, the real-life Miranda, Cynthia Nixon, is trying out a
similar relationship

Avril Lavigne's engagement to her Sum 41 star boyfriend, Deryck Whibley, was all a joke.  Damn, I was looking forward to their punk babies.  Oh wait... I shouldn't start any smack with her.

"Maxim: When was the last time you had to smack a bitch down?

"Avril Lavigne: In a bar a few months ago. Some chick came up to me and said something, so I kicked her in the box and shoved her. I don't go looking for fights, but if someone pushes me, I'm not going to take it.

"Maxim: What did she say to you?

"Avril: 'You're not punk rock, blah,blah,blah!' Look, I never once said I was punk. I don't want to be punk. I'm just a really strong, opinionated person."

You've heard about the Nigerian scams?  This is a different kind, in which Chris Rock was almost a victim.  He had sex with a woman while he was married, she came back and said she was pregnant with his baby, trying to extort money.  What did he do?  Called the FBI.

The "fat" Olsen twin scares me.  She's possessed!  The twins are also advertising for McDonald's France.  At least, they're eating... if not well.

Oh, by the way, Pamela Anderson is dating Jesus.  He's not a carpenter though, but a circus performer for the esteemed Cirque Du Soleil troupe in Vegas' hot adult show "Zumanity." They both share a love of animals. WWJD to help free chickens?

I miss the Daily Show.  Read the short interview he did with Time.com.

Time: Writing a book is so retro.  Shouldn't you be blogging or something?
Jon Stewart:  I can't. It's too hip. Then I'd have to get a BlackBerry, and I'm wired in, and next thing you know, I'm at a Black-Eyed Peas concert with a crack problem. I just can't go down that road.

The revolution of blogging is under way!  [The Blogger's Creed]

Ok, that's my entertainment fix for now.
