Day Man.

If you are not watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia you are not cool. Here's a combined clip of a little song Charlie created called Nightman and Dayman. I love his how he understood his lyrics from the pictures. Better song is Day Man, aaaaauuhh.

"DAY MAN
Day Man
Fighter of the Night Man
Champion of the Sun
Master of Karate
and friendship for everyone"

Free Night at the Movies.

So last week I was lucky enough to catch a free early screening of Dan in Real Life with Gianel and Selene. I love how we were getting free tickets for something else and we ended up with this. So I went into this movie not knowing too much because of the lack of press at the time. It stars Steve Carell as an advice columnist raising his three girls and meets a woman in a bookstore during a family weekend at his parents house. They get to know each other but then Dan finds out she is dating his brother. It is a pretty cute movie and funnier than I expected. Steve Carell is hilarious and his dance moves alone is a reason to watch this.


Last night got to watch Lars and the Real Girl with Gianel and Jovianne. If you don't already know, probably you don't, the movie is about a lonely Lars, played by the brilliant Ryan Gosling, who purchases as life size doll and treats her as though she is alive. It is an emotional journey for Lars and for his community, who accept and treat the doll as a real person too. Ryan Gosling is so lovable and really a must watch. He really knows how to choose interesting and diverse roles; he's so hot right now. The movie is like nothing I have ever seen and I had plenty of laughs and aww moments. And fuck a lady who ssshes me for eating popcorn.

Hey Jude, don't make it bad

Hello I was so fortunate to watch Across the Universe last Friday with Gianel and Selene. I love musicals, especially ones that are vibrant (Moulin Rouge) as opposed to gloomy (Rent). Who cannot love when the story is set to Beatles music? The film is set into the 60's, when Jude moves to the states and meets Max and later his sister Lucy.

The music is fantastic especially the voice of the lead, Jim Sturgess, who plays Jude. He is hot and a singer, kept me swooning. He so reminds me of Ewan McGreggor. After the movie I just had all their versions of "Something" "Hey Jude" "Strawberry Fields Forever" in my head. I tried to get the soundtrack but it was sold out at Best Buy. So right now I'm keeping my fix through imeem and youtube. Really I recommend this for anyone who loves musicals, The Beatles and in between. Under all the rebellion revolutionary subplots, it is a love story that reassures that love is all you need.

SNL Premiere.

A High School Musical parody. Count me in. Hairrrry beav.



They call you weasel, say your methods are medieval, you can blame the Jews, I'll be your Jim Caviezel.

I-rannn I-rann so far away. So catchy. I was so taken by surprised when Adam Levine popped up in a digital short that has to do with Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Piano sounds familiar doesn't it? Nujabes? OOooh and Jakey cameo! Andy Samberg keeps rolling out them hits. You got me straight trippin too.


HAHAH omg Will Forte as Drake Bell. Giving Kanye West credit for mocking himself. Taking that blue ribbon lmao.

Hotel Chevalier.

The Wes Andersen short, Hotel Chevalier, which is the prequel to The Darjeeling Limited is posted free on iTunes. It starts Natalie Portman and Jason Schwartzman. I am so tired right now I didn't even watch it yet. But download it before the limited time offer is over. I heard she gets a bit naked. Don't quote me on this.

* all subject to change.

Dunder Mifflin pens.

Someone bring me to Target's dollar corner. Plenty of The Office related goodies are on sale according to the Office Tally . Let me know, I'd love me some Dwight pens.

Hug it out.

Hahaha Ricky Gervais couldn't make the Emmys, so Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert gave Best Actor in a Comedy to Daily Show alum Steve Carell. That had to be the funniest part during the three hour telecast.

Congrats to 30 Rock for their Best Comedy win! Woo Tina Fey! Her American Express commercial, priceless. "These are my divorce papers." Hahahha. Anyway the win reminds me when Arrested Development won even with its dismal ratings. Hopefully the win will attract more viewers to watch. Can't wait for the new season.

Postponed.

Justin Timberlake must have partied too hard because he canceled his concert in Sacramento tonight without any reason. He needs to learn how to hold his liquor. Not only that, he postponed Wednesday's San Jose concert where I am suppose to be attending. New date is Sunday September 23rd. Whoo! Whole day devotion. I guess it stings a little but I don't mind cause I had a paper due this week. Anyway I still get to see his concert just got to wait a bit longer.

UPDATE from the offical website:
" San Jose & Sacramento Dates to Be Rescheduled
Tour promoter, AEG Live, has rescheduled Justin Timberlake's concerts in Sacramento and San Jose. The shows were rescheduled following a doctor mandated several day vocal rest prescribed to the artist to repair vocal strain inflicted during his MTV VMA performance and months of rigorous touring. The FutureSex/LoveShows will go on. The Sacramento concert, originally scheduled for Monday, September 10th, has been rescheduled for Tuesday, September 25th and the San Jose concert, originally scheduled for Wednesday, September 12th, has been moved to Sunday, September 23rd. Fans should retain their tickets as they will be honored at the rescheduled concerts. "

Cute nano.

New release of Apple iPods out. I was just thinking what if my iPod broke right now, and hoping new versions would be out before I'd buy another. Well, it hasn't broke down on me yet, but the speaker on the left ear is fucked up. Anyway, the new Nano is cute, especially the color. Check the ad for a familiar tune. The iPod touch has a sexy name, but is it really necessary? Maybe for those not on the AT&T plan but I would spit out the extra cash for the phone and camera. And iPod classic holds up to 40,000 songs. That's a bit extreme, right now I'm stackin 3000+ and I think that is excessive.

HBO: FutureSex/LoveShow.

Nothing to do this Labor Day weekend? Well if you are a HBO subscriber, you are in luck. But those with basic cable, find someone immediately, order HBO, or even knock on a neighbor's door. FutureSex/ LoveShow is being presented from Madison Square Garden. I am very thankful I got to watch the show a couple times and again in 2 weeks! Since it's being aired everywhere, I hope he performs some special songs (Dick in a Box?), more from Justified (Never Again?!?) or even more NSYNC favorites (Selfish?). So watch it, especially What Goes Around... Comes Around and slow songs medleys. =)


Schedule of future airings.

Danny DeVito & The Contract.

Can't wait for the premiere September 13th!

Time to get back to work.

The Office season 4 premiere, September 27th

AND it is headed toward syndication! TBS tuesdays at 10pm.

1234

Feist performs 1234 on Letterman last night with plenty of special guests.

Welcome back?

It's only the real first day and I'm about over it. On Monday, I tried to add a class I'm already enrolled in for Friday, with I'm guessing little success. The teacher didn't take roll and about 20 people put their name on the waiting list. Ah. And how's he going to teach popular culture if he's from Canada and admitted he doesn't know much about US culture. So disappointing. And freakly similar looking to Henry Gale. I was going to drop that one maybe since he's new it will be easy. Today had a 8am lecture and walked in late, my bad. Same teacher from last year so that's cool. Then explored around with Gianel. Went to Rec class and I believe I will be dropping it. Sorry Camille. Teacher was cool and all but I am not down for a 10 page paper and oral report for a class I don't even need. But as my first day seemed to suck, things turned around with a free notebook,G bagel and my funny company. Ended with production class, very exciting. No sarcasm.

So long sweet summer.

It has been the longest summer ever. And tomorrow it is all over. I went to summer school, and vacationed and been a lazy bum. Had bunch of parties, shopping adventures, jogging?, and oh my 20th birthday. Now it is back to buses, books, and bitches. Okay maybe not bitches. My schedule is still in a funk so anyone at state just text me where you are. Lunch breaks please. Good luck to everyone and to me rearranging classes. Counting the days til labor day weekend & Justin Timberlake concert!

The Nature.

Mixtape Maestro posted new Talib Kweli featuring Justin Timberlake. Download there, if expired get at me.

Too much.

NBC really likes to market Heroes. It's getting so hyped, I really hope this season is better than two. Milo got short hair there! Fine.

New Heroes.

Premieres September 24th! What more can I say? This better not suck. Are they working Milo's hair cut? Please no scars.

Harold & Kumar 2

Here's the teaser trailer for the sequel to Harold & Kumar. Hahahaha "Terrorist!" Dang got to wait for 2008. Yay Neil Patrick Harris. It has to be legend -wait for it- dary!

We'll play jacks and Uno cards.

Milo Ventimiglia (source)
Can't wait for new season of Heroes. =)

Lars and the Real Girl.

This looks really good, this touched my heart. Ryan Gosling plays a delusional lonely guy who thinks that a life like doll he ordered from the Internet is his living girlfriend. Sounds kooky or just really innovative? I think I will watch this one. Ryan can really act as any persona, what a great actor he has become.

It's Always Sunny.

Myspace posted a new episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (season 3) for a week, a whole month before the premiere. OMG i just finished, so hilarious. If you aren't familiar with the show, it revolves around friends who are often very uninformed vain but lovable dopes; previously they have competed with each other regarding women, prom dates, kids basketball games, running for office, or banging each other's moms. The gang's antics are so ridiculous that it is comic genius. Enjoy some sun.

Be Kind Rewind.

From the director who brought you Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Science of Sleep comes this comedy where a man magnetically erasing all the VHS in his video store. I guess there are still local video stores out there, go figure. From the trailer, the store owners instead of buying more tapes, decide to re-film and star some classic films. The recreation movie shots of Ghostbusters, Rush Hour, Robocop and especially The Lion King got me.

756.

Gone.

Eight =D

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Superbad spoiler joke.

Ayo Technology

50 Cent feat. Justin Timberlake - Ayo Technology

Picking classes.

I swear trying to plan what to take before registration time is stupid because all the classes I need are already full. Sucks cause during early priority time I couldn't get classes cause I wasn't declared and now that I am I am stuck with a lot of news and economic classes. Gag me. And there are only a couple spots left for video lab gahhh. Please no more people add classes tonight because my reg time tomorrow sounds really early. Make sure I'm online by 8 tomorrow morning.

Lucky's.

Tell me why I got a Lucky's ad in the mailbox? First suspicions was when I found a Lucky's receipt on my bathroom counter but I thought maybe its old, it is possible for my mom to keep a receipt from 5 years ago. But no. Since when did Albertson's change their name to Lucky's again? Don't get me wrong, I loved when the grocery story was simply called Lucky's but how can they just flip flop back like that? That's like telling your child "hey son you remember your Uncle Billy who died from a freak fishing accident, well I lied he's alive he just moved now he's moving back." Ah. I like to ramble, to Lucky's! May you continue to have sales on Crystal Geyser packs.

Erehekejeerreraah

Poor snail.

Sorry I stepped on you. I was running out of the house to give my Tita her cell phone. It was dark and I was moving so fast I didn't bother to look down. And there was a fluffy cat staring at me. Really it freaked me out, she was just staring at me, making me feel more guilty. It ran down to my drive way but the staring was more piercing. I don't even want to look at my sock. Going back into the house with one sock was cold. Maybe if you moved faster. Sorry again.

Simpsonized.

In wake of the release of "The Simpsons Movie" I have Simpsonized myself after trying with plenty of pictures. Doesn't even look like the original picture, for one I was wearing a SFSU sweater and my hair was tied back. But at least my eyes are on point.

The Darjeeling Limited.

"I love you too, but I'm gonna mace you in the face!" That line alone got me.

Supergood.

Last night I was ever so lucky to catch a free screening of "Superbad" at the Metreon. Too bad for everyone who missed out but now you just got to wait 3 weeks and I would love to watch with you again. I've been excited to watch this since I first saw the rated R trailer and would watch anything with Michael Cera. Seriously watch out for this one, one of the funniest films I have seen. The film follows the friendship between two socially geeky teens, whose mission is to deliver alcohol to a high school party in hopes to get laid. The film is full of penis jokes, and the best kind of vulgar.

Unlike the stupid teen movies, "Superbad" is believable in how teenagers look and the anxiety of leaving your friends for college. Along with Jonah Hill (love his drawings) and Cera, relatively unknown Christopher Mintz-Plasse plays Fa Fogell, and has movie stealing scenes with the cops and his "I have a boner" line is genius. Underneath the vag and jizz jokes, the movie is essentially a sweet story of two friends. Boop! Samezies! Okay I don't want to give away anything else but check it out and stay for the illustrations during the credits. 8=D

Snorkeling.

Of course I wanted to make the most of what Hawaii's beaches have to offer, so I put on some goggles and jumped in at McKenna Beach in Maui. Once I put the Costco bought snorkeling goggles I was semi-freaking out. First, I am not the greatest swimmer ever, practically self taught in high school, and second we were in the F-ing deep waters of the ocean, and finally no lifeguards! I regained my cool and practiced breathing. I grabbed a bogey board and along with my cousin and her boyfriend we swam further and further into the horizon. As I was finding my balance, I fell off the board and for a second I was thinking "fuck no I'm not going to drown," then I got up and kept paddling away. Eventually I got comfortable and stuck my head into the water and saw plenty of an-ne-me-ne-mo-nem-ees anemones and pretty fishes. The feeling of Under the Sea than Jaws was playing in my head. Love to do it again with trained professionals.

Welcome back.

I am home! More tan and happy! Hawaii was really great. I will blog here and there about random stories I presume. Now this week I think I will be busy trying to help plan and set up my brother's engagement party! And good news is that I passed my 2 summer classes. This week I get to finally declare my major to radio and tv and then register for classes. Woah, so major!

Destination: Hawaii.

I cannot believe it. Summer school is over! Jump for joy! Finshed my paper, final and lucky me my other professor didn't create the quiz so I am exempt. Now it is time to pack for Hawaii! I'm headed to the islands of Maui and Oahu and attending my cousin's wedding! I will be gone I believe until Wednesday. Miss you all!

1-18-08

"Cloverfield" HD trailer is up. And I guess those supposed sites don't relate to the movie, but this site shows found some freaky screen shots toward a hidden site. Reminds me of the Lost Experience. Can't wait!

Also speaking of good dates, today (7-11) is GIANEL's BIRTHDAY! Don't let the test stress you out, live it up, it's your day!

Milo.

Happy Birthday! =D

Cupcake me.

Hey now you're an All-Star.

All-Star week has arrived in San Francisco and I have participated as much I could during this very busy weekend. Along with my sister, I attended a couple of volunteer meetings to help out at DHL's Fan Fest. On Tuesday night, I sat through an volunteer orientation where I got this cool All Star fanny pack (they are back in ladies and gentlemen) and two free tickets to Fan Fest, and my unlimited pass into the fan fest. Even though I was originally suppose to work Saturday night, I went to volunteer for some private Safeway sponsored party Thursday night.

At 6pm, we entered Moscone Center and got my 2 free Giants game tickets for August (holla), and uniform consisted of a cap, bright yellow mock and big name tag pin. I was too tiny for a polo so we tried to make the mock look as stylish as we could, it ended up as a long shirt dress hahaha. We walked to the empty convention center and were all assigned different zones. The 'managers' put me and my sister at the busiest attraction for 3-7 years old. Great fun with the children right? Well, at our station we had around 9 mini cars, with sports teams labeled, where kids raced against each other by peddling down the track. At first we had very few kids stopping by but as two or three came all of them came at once. At one point all the cars were in use and they were all crashing into walls.

We had to help out carrying and facing the mini-cars in the right direction. Yeah I tried to peddle I got as far as a foot away. Some kids were so cute, being so shy or sticking out their tongues. Just too adorable for words. And some poor kids exerting so much force you can see it on their little chubby faces. Double cute! And to top it off 2 steering wheels broke off of the Giants car. Even though by the end of the night my legs were about to break, making those kids happy was worth it. Our shift ended at 11pm and got some free pennants and cold Pepsi outside. I'm going to enjoy exploring the place as fast as I can tomorrow with my little to no free time. I hear Taco Bell is giving free tacos woo!

Summer TV List.

Summer is full of reruns or heinously bad reality television, so here's my take on what to watch this summer.

- Flight of the Conchords: From the New Zealand band comes the comedy-musical show that follows the duo trying to find success in New York City. If you are not a fan of random burst of songs then the show might not be for you. Still lyrics like, "You're so beautiful ... Like a high-class prostitute ... You could be a part-time model," crack me up, I had to rewind the Tivo. (Sundays at 10:30pm, HBO)

- So You Think You Can Dance: Who doesn't enjoy watching people dancing as birds and calling it lyrical? Cat Deeley needs a stylist asap! At least Wade Robson has a job now, hello Britney.
(Wednesdays at 8pm, Thursdays at 9pm)

- Entourage: Johnny Drama is hilarious, Vinny Chase is dreamy.
(Sundays at 10pm)

- Kyle KY XY: Many of the mystery has been solved about his no belly button and how he was created (ok test tube baby). But now the show is evolving with a crazy-eyed female version, while Kyle is adapting to a 'normal' lifestyle. Show would be so much better if they replace the Droopy dog looking love interest.
(Mondays at 8pm)

- Rob & Big: Hilarious best friends who got each others back with the lovable Meaty and Mini Horse. This is one of the only shows I can stand on MTV. Do work son! And some Bobby Light.
(Tuesdays at 10:30pm)


- Big Brother 8: Guilty pleasure with a great new twist of bringing housemates who have unfinished business with another: Father-daughter, old best friends, ex-couple where one supposedly gave another gonorrhea, so dirty! And the addition of America's player who has to do whatever the audience votes for. Looks like a interesting season.
(Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays at 8pm)

- Clark & Michael webisodes: Love Michael Cera with all his geeky awkwardness.
(Updated every Wednesday)

- Stickam live cams: Oh you guys.
(Anytime people want watching)

JJ.

Even though I haven't been able to catch Transformers just yet I heard a lot of great things about a very secretive teaser trailer playing before the feature. The untitled project by J.J. Abrams, creator of Lost, looks sooo good. It is shot in hand held cameras, very Blair Witchy don't you think? I am always down for a disaster film and if it is anything as intriguing as Lost I will be so happy. Wouldn't that be grand if it was smokey the monster? Or the 'monster' has a Dharma logo? Okay sounds far fetched. Anyway Many the trailer for the movie has been taken offline but here's one shot with a camera phone. Gave me the chills. Can't wait for 1-18-08. And who is Ethan Haas? Was he right?

070707

Get lucky.

Eavesdropping.

Week of 6/29-7/6

"Sorry I fucked up!"
-at Denny's Serramonte

"Sometimes I have to pee so bad its like a river, its crazy right?"
-in the bathroom stall in SFMOMA

Bombs over.

It is currently 12:44am and the fireworks/cherry bombs continue to go off. It was cute earlier but now I want to sleep and not be disrupted because I got class at 9 tomorrow. I spent the day at my cousin's house after doing a 5 page paper in little over two hours, yay me. Got some Jamba, almost saw Gianel, ate chicken. Watched a bit of Ratatouille then played with sparklers and a bunch of random bomb cans. Talked to some kids next door, Alejandro and Priscilla who enjoyed our mini light show. And I ran with Lynne for some ice cream. Drove home and watched many illegal fireworks go off and retreated in my mom's room watching a very spectacular view of more fireworks. We still have a bazooka firework that you stick in the ground left, I hope we get to use it on an unexpected night.

Fourth.

Happy Fourth of July! I want to play with a sparkler.


And today was also the Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest. Kobayashi didn't win, a guy from San Jose chowed down 66 hot dogs. Yummy! Costco hotdogs are the best though.

Under my umbrella.

Yes you and everyone who owns a radio are already sick of Rihanna's "Umbrella." I recommend you to listen to Scott Simons' version. And its available to download woooo! He doesn't even change the lyrics but the song sounds completely different, very dreamy and mellow.

Lover's Spit.

Wow, somehow someone was able to sneak their camera into the Fillmore and film a couple songs. Lucky bastard. Oh Lover's Spit, yes it sounds like they are talking about giving head but the hidden meaning to me is that either we know people who are so infatuated that they don't give a shit about anything else or that people should grow up rather than wasting time in a meaningless relationship. Whatever the reason is, the song is still beautiful. Night.

Nothing Last Forever.

Isn't life already in 3-D?

"In dreams, emotions are overwhelming"








"Tonight I'll show you how dreams are prepared, love, friendships, relationships. All those ships."

I Feel It All.

Last night I attended Feist/Grizzly Bear concert at the Fillmore. Yes, first indie show. Pictured left was taken from Tuesday night. Cameras were not allowed, poor Jed. And in that picture would of been Tina, Jed, Jeremy and me chillin. Yes thanks to my cousin for waiting we were standing right in front center. Yes we cut him and like only 30 other people lol. Walked in the Fillmore (first time) and it so reminded me of the Dancing with the Stars ballroom. Very chic. I twirled a bit and secured a spot, in front of the speakers and mic. We had a free apples and my opened water (haha!) and set it on the stage, not forgetting the banana bread. Our own mini picnic. Chronicle has a good review here, but let me give you more commentary if you do care. That Verizon screen saying "Your text here" is a lie. Don't send them text, you won't see it. Hahaha.

The crowd was filled with who you would think would be at a indie show, plus a couple of Asians, yee! So the opening act was Grizzly Bear performing over an hour set. I saw them outside but I didn't know what they looked like. They came on and I only recognized a couple of their songs. Very mellow, relaxing music. And their use of instruments ranging from the flute, clarinet, guitar and other machines I never heard of was awesome. But the big sweat droplet almost hitting us from the singer would of be bad haha. The drummer was kind of cute. They ended and still was on stage just putting their plugs and doodads away. We stretched our legs and neck (ouch), the crew placed waters, set lists, mic checks then around 9:30 she came on stage.

This was the second show in two days and I don't know about the first show, but this one was really really great. As she said "this is our night." She performed many songs from "The Reminder" and a couple songs from "Let It Die." She placed a sequined armband around her mic, while the other had a purple unicorn dangling down. Who knew how funny she was? She forgot her lyrics to 'One Evening' and walked off stage and had the lyrics copied onto the bottom of a beer case and restarted. Also she shout outed this guy in a unicorn shirt who was right behind me. For awhile I thought she was looking at me. And she got the sold out crowd (I could not see the end) into it, singing and shouting out SF, Oakland and Sausalito?!

Feist has an incredible live voice, even with the dance hand motions and funny faces, at least it ain't ugly as John Mayer. You really can't find her kind of raspy, seductive voice anywhere on the radio. I think it was during 'The Park' where the whole band made bird noises, very Bambi woodsy ambiance. The crowd cheered during 'I Feel It All' during the "I want to win the war," I don't thing that song has to do with anything political but just the word war gets us riled up. Also some lady tapped danced and I was scared she was going kick someone hahaha.

She encored with 'Lover's Spit' loved it so much. That was the song that really got me into loving her voice. She jumped on the piano with her lyrics and was accompanied by her former band mate of Broken Social Scene on the keys. That got me right here. She continued with the boys of Grizzly Bear in background vocals to 'Sealion' and ended the show with 'Let It Die.' Brillantly beautiful as ever.

The Fillmore is so rockin' I need to check out another show there. Disco balls, Christmas lights, bar - nice. Some girls to the right swooped on the set list then walked slowed on the now sticky floor to the exit. Made my way through the white crowd and sat for 5 minutes to regain blood movement and retrieved Jed's camera. I did not know this, but the Fillmore always gives special limited posters at sold out shows, very cool. The show was so intimate and fun, which made me appreciate her even more. She has proven you don't need the big over the top numbers, wardrobe changes, pyrotechnics to hear a great singer. Check out Feist's music, you won't be disappointed.

Halfway home.

Alright, less than 2 weeks til school is over and HAWAII! Summer school hasn't been terribly hard minus the waking up at 8 Monday-Thursday. And the sleeping at 1 ain't helping me. Now all I got to worry about is that 10 page research paper and analysis paper/final for variations. I can't believe it's going by so fast. I've enjoyed the guest speakers from the sex industry and staying in class for 1 1/2 hours rather than 4. Also I noticed the new freshmen getting toured around, looking very baby. Oh and I saw the gatoraider who toured my group, he got bigger in the tummy/neck region. The chalkboards in the stalls at SFSU are hilarious, this one got me giggling, I'm mature. I'm pretty sure I heard that before, but I got a laugh. That just made me wonder who actually got up from the toilet pulled out a sharpie. Person must of been thinking on the toilet and somehow this joke was inspired from their poop.

"There once was a man from Nantucket
Whose cock was so long he could suck it
He said with a grin
as he wiped his chin
'If my ear was a cunt I could fuck it"

I get off on this.

Pearl is sooo cute. If you don't know her you should, check out The Landlord short. Too bad this is her final performance as one of the most famous web celebrities today. Her dirty mouth is brilliant, I guess baby retirement is a good idea. You don't want her to end up retaining such profanity. In this short, Pearl interrogates Angel (Will Ferrell) and breaks him down how a two year old could, with words and a yellow phone book. I doubt that's the last we hear from Pearl, so I leave you with some of her best lines.

"You pay now, bitch!"
"I want my money!!"
"I just buzzed"
"I'm calling 911... wait I am a cop."
"I break bones and laugh"
"You're going down ese"
"I AM THE LAW!"

Exhale.

Let it be only stress.

This is why I'm.

HOT.

Do I really need a reason to post pictures of Milo? Finally he cut those bangs off. Catch Gilmore Girls for your Jess Mariano fix. And he is really the reason why I don't hate "Big Girls Don't Cry."

Caw caw caw.

While I was struggling eating my dinner, (fuck wisdom teeth) I heard a loud repeated noise. At first I thought, "hmm it's just barks from the 'missing' dog from next door." Where is that mini horse sized dog that tackled me on that one unsuspected afternoon? Bitch. That's another story for another day. But no dear friends no not at all! Then I thought maybe a prehistoric creature or even a dragon from The NeverEnding Story! But disappointingly no. I dashed toward the window leaving my purple potatoes and black tea behind.

The noise became more intense. We come to the conclusion that a crow was stuck in our chimney. Maybe a crow is Death of the bird underworld and has come to poke my eyes out for mistreating Blue, Green and my other unnamed parakeets. Oh dear. I jumped outside with my dad in my 'world's softest socks' to find that fuckin crow, which is now annoying and I sense the mockery. Cawcawcawcawyouwon'tfindmehaahacawcawcaw. No luck from the front so we made our way to the backyard. And there lies, honestly the biggest crow I have ever seen chillin on our chim chiminey chim chiminey chim chim cher-oo! We made eye contact. Crowzy (crazy crow) immediately swooped down and flew away. Didn't even put up a fight.

Bargain Hunt.

Dear Target, Marshalls, Steve & Barry's, Ross, etc.

Thanks for the constant mark downs, reasonable priced clothing, having excess supply of smalls. Thats exactly why I like bargain hunting because you have no expectations on what you will find. Plus I'm a cheapo with no trabajo. SJP's Bitten line is too cute because "fashion is not a luxury." I love my olive green bag which I use daily at school. I wish her line was sold up here. Props to Banana Republic Hillsdale for having the dress I will be wearing in Hawaii on sale (first saw it in Emeryville ripped). Yay for $2 shirts, yes you just have to know where to look. Also my regards to the library, I enjoy your free and cheap books for sale and with your free movie rentals I am able to cross more and more movies off my summer viewing list. Cheers!

Dancing.

So you think you can dance dance dance? Above is the only performance I really liked from Lacey & Kameron. She gets really throw around like a ragdoll. So intense. I swear recreating this is the best hahaha. Anyways, hoping tonight brings more Dmirty!

Flashing lights.

Justin Timberlake - LoveStoned

It's kind of weird to release the video for this now that all I hear on the radio is "Summerlove" but I can't complain I love this song. Good memories of singing this during last semester haha. The video reminds me of Windows Media Player and it only shows snippets of Mr. JT, but good shots during "I Think She Knows," very sexy.

Punky.

"You have a much better life if you wear impressive clothes."
- Vivienne Westwood




I'm always up for fashionable art, and at the de Young museum I got to see the revolutionary clothes from Dame Vivienne Westwood. For only 5 bucks, you get to see her 36 years in fashion of celebrated pieces that influenced many designers of today. Her collection on display ranges from her early years, to the punk age, pirates, witches, tailoring, corsets and to gorgeous evening wear.
"Known best for her fearless nonconformity, she also has a profound respect for the past and looks to it for inspiration. With tradition as her springboard, she takes historic garments such as corsets and crinolines and reinvents them in new ways or uses thoroughly British fabrics like tartans and tweeds to create fashion that gently parodies Establishment styles." Also those high blue heels that Naomi Campbell wore are on display. Witness fashion pieces of history before it packs up.

Knocked Up.

If you have not watched Knocked Up yet, ignore all the useless trilogies and watch this very real comedy. I'd write a long review but that would just ruin the experience. Here's some deleted scenes to watch.

Pampered.

What a much needed tranquil afternoon I experienced along with fellow lovely females at the Burke Williams Spa in San Francisco's Westfield Centre. I always wondered what happened in there with my curious eyes from below with the rest of the tired shoppers. Along with my cousins, we headed to the mall (who knew?) for rest and relaxation. We entered wide black doors to the receptionist desk with workers in their sleek black suits. At that point I knew I was going be given the star treatment, a much needed pampering as I say so myself. We got a tour, this place is huge. We got our own lockers and accommodations to water, towels, sandals, robes, shampoo, conditioner, razors, tampons, lotions, face wash, mouth wash, hair dryers, curling iron; everything a girl could ask for! And they served the best chilled lemonade during the waiting room. Delicious!

As giddy as a school girl, I hopped into my robe and dipped in my toes into the jacuzzi. Soon after I had my pure relaxation massage appointment. First timer here. I was taken into a hall full of rooms and hopped into a warm table. The session lasted 5o minutes and went by too fast. I was really tense in my neck, damn computer! and was told to drink plenty of H20. After I cruised through the jacuzzi, steam room where I almost lost my cousin. I grabbed some cucumbers and a cold towel and headed in. The cucumbers smelled great and headed out when I couldn't breathe anymore. Then laid in the sauna which better suits my tastes.

Then I grabbed an apple and sat with the fellow ladies, we were all there for a bridal shower. I looked down at the fellow shoppers holding my lemonade in my terry robe and felt like a million bucks. After drinking many cold glasses of lemonade I headed back to the jacuzzi and entered the mist room where within seconds could not see my cousin across from me. Very cool. I took advantage of my stay and entered the sauna again. Also, "the quiet room" had at least 10 leather seats and I could not even be quiet in there with the chair being so loud.

Burke Spa is a great treat for any female or male, consider gift certificiates and you will be the best person ever. And bring a bathing suit because I did not enjoy seeing a naked lady during the tour. Otherwise, I really recommend this place. If I could I'd live there seriously. So take time and pamper yourselves. Love your body & love yourself.

Summer summer time.

Hurray! Can you believe it, well for me anyway, it's SUMMER! No more 19 units.. only 6 this this time. Hahaha. I'll be taking some classes starting in 2 weeks. I gotta enjoy this short summer, then school, then another month off. I guess that ain't so bad. Sleeping in, shopping, eating. I'll also be vacationing yay! We will be so lucky here if we get some enough sun. So I leave you with some songs that enjoyed during past summers and songs that will make you laugh or put you in the mood.

Finales.

Best Season Finale: Lost
Anti-climatic: Heroes
Leaving me in tears: Ugly Betty

Lost
The best finale I think I ever seen. WOW. The beginning of the season, I admit I was bored and the story was not developing compared to how Heroes revealed their answers. But nothing can beat this finale. Really, brilliant. Don't read if you do not watch this show. Please. The razor phone really gave it away to me that this was no flashback, but a flash forward! Gasp. There is hope but not the life that Jack wanted. Jack became a depressed druggie with a freakishly brown beard flying Oceanic every week hoping to crash back on the island. How sad. He was distraught after reading an obituary on someone neither friend or family. But why so sad Jack? Jack called and shared a secret meeting with none other than Kate! I so called it. But Kate did not seem interested. More questions: What happened between now and then? Whose in the casket? Who was waiting for her? Why isn't she in jail? I say they returned to the island but it was kept undercover. Jack had to lie about where he was been, and probably was offered an exchange to get off but the other survivors remain the island, making Jack feel guilty so he is trying desperately to return. And wouldn't you recognize people if they returned from a plane crash? Conspiracy!

And back on the island, very good. Poor hobbit Charlie. He will be missed. Saddest death, at least he wrote a last message "Not Penny's boat." I never trusted Naomi. Now the question is who is she working with? Guess we will never know since Locke speared her with his knife. Awesome. Locke should've shot Jack while he was trying to use that phone, you know he regrets ever leaving the island now. I believed Ben about Naomi, and what a long awaited ass kicking he got from Jack. Poor Ben, maybe they are really the good guys.

And what's with Mikhail, nothing can kill him? When he came up to the window with the grenade it felt like Wile E. Coyote would do to the Road runner. Plenty of deaths, my favorites include Hurley in his VW running some Other over and Sayid killing an Other with his legs. What a badass. Too bad Tom died too. Also, Walt hit puberty ahha. And what's the Temple? Great season finale, I can't wait to see if we will see more flash fowards and who these people Naomi work for! Too many questions to ponder for 7 months.

American Idol
As expected Jordin won. "This Is My Now" is pretty fuckin cheesy, but not as bad as "Do I Make You Proud/My Destiny" from last year. She won once she cried. Okay usually the competition sadly is based on the last song that the contenders don't even get to pick. So Blake was sabotaged haha. Jordin is really marketable so I expect her to sell a lot of records. Good luck Blake, can't wait to hear what he's going do. Finale was disappointing and too long compared to last season's. Good moments include Carrie's "I'll Stand By You" and the African's Children choir, adorable! And Kelly Clarkson looked so mad singing "Never Again" her voice was so vengeful. Blake's beatboxing instead of singing was something never done before so that was cool. I can't believe the season is over, thank god. The viewership numbers were down, is Idol finally losing it? Til' next season.

Dancing With The Stars
Yay. Apolo won! Him and Christina Aguilera Julianne are too cute together. Joey was really good but Apolo really came from no dancing background and really proved himself.

Desperate Housewives
Gaby got married, but then started making out with her ex-husband. Okay, Carlos watch out her husband looks very powerful. Bree finally came back, and is pretending a pregnancy and will raise her daughter's baby. I guess. Lynette's mom is a bitch. And she still has cancer. Susan and Mike got married in the forest. Actually it was very romantic. And Edie hung herself. Too bad. The show kinda bores me now can't you tell?

Ugly Betty
The montage of Justin singing in West Side Story, and Santos getting shot really got me. Especially when Betty told Hilda. Just thinking about them crying in the hallway just gave me chills. There were a bunch of other revelations but damn that one hurt. I can't wait for next season. Easily the best new show of last season.

Fabia: "I wouldn't want to marry without my something old."
Wilhelmina: "With those veins in your legs, you already have something blue."

Grey's Anatomy
Bored. Cristina got denied at the wedding by Burke. Good. Her emotional break down ripping her dress off was dramatic. Izzie-George annoys the hell out of me. And he failed his intern exam, whoops. Alex denied Jane Doe/Ava/Rebecca. And you know McDreamy is going get with Meredith's sister. Good, cause Meredith is giving him nothing in that relationship. You want them to work but I just give up.

Heroes
I expected so much more battle between Sylar and Peter. Cop out of Nathan saving Peter and flying to the sky. The whole season was about the city blowing up, and not letting it explode was stupid. And why was it so easy for Hiro to kill Sylar when earlier in a scene he stopped bullets? Was a charging Asian man much more threatening? Interesting was when Peter was talking to his dead patient, confusing. Also why didn't Peter just fly up, can he not use 2 powers at the same time? Stupid Claire should of shot him, come on he's going to survive anyway. But I can't wait to know who is "a lot worse than the bogeyman." The last 3 minutes is going to be the first 3 minutes of next season. Okay Hiro is in ancient China. What does that mean? I really hope they don't stay in the past and I hope a city explodes.

Gilmore Girls
Series finale was good and satisfying for the fact the writers did not know this would be the last one. Luke through Rory a sweet farewell party. He even made the tent! Aw, that gesture finally brought Luke and Loralei back together. I like how the camera panned out during the last season between Rory and Loralei at Lukes'. Paid homage to the first episode. I still wish Rory would have ended up with Jess. Swoon.

How I Met Your Mother
So Robin and Ted broke up after them dragged out funny assumptions that their news included moving to Argentina, an engagement and a pregnancy. Barney was hilarious trying to get Ted to tell him what the news was. So now season three, the single adventures of Ted and Barney will be "legend.. wait for it.. ary." I hope we finally get to see who this "mother" is. This show is so underrated I recommend to get into it.

Barney: "This is the 12th most worried I've been that someone is pregnant."

The Office
Cute! The gold yogurt lid medal (The Olympic episode) from Pam to Jim was adorable, reminiscent of the UK Office. So he just left Karen in New York? Good for him. I like how the show teases us, Jim easily could have ran into the office and kissed Pam but no, he interrupted her confessional with asking her on a date. I love how Pam teared a bit. What a great way to start next season. JAM!

Dwight: Don’t you want to earn Schrute bucks?
Stanley: No. In fact, I’ll give you a billion Stanley nickels if you never talk to me again.
Dwight: What’s the ratio of Stanley nickels to Schrute bucks?
Stanley: The same as the ratio of unicorns to leprechauns.

Creed: www.creedthoughts.gov.www\creedthoughts. Check it out.

Pam: I haven’t heard anything. But I bet Jim got the job. I mean, why wouldn’t he? He’s totally qualified, and smart, everyone loves him. And if he never comes back again, that’s okay. We’re friends. And I’m sure we’ll stay friends. We just … we never got the timing right. You know? I shot him down, and then he did the same to me, but you know what? It’s okay. I am totally fine. Everything is going to be totally …
Jim: Pam. (To camera) Sorry. Um, are you free for dinner tonight?
Pam: Yes.
Jim: All right. Then it’s a date.
Pam: I’m sorry, what was the question?

Kelly: Who was that?
Ryan: Nobody. You and I are done.
Kelly: What?!

So what to watch this summer? I'll be checking out The Traveler and So You Think You Can Dance, and whatever reality shows are thrown at me. I can't wait for next season and the new batch of shows (Gossip Girl, here's looking at you).

D'oh.

Catch The Simpsons 400th episode this weekend. Here's someone who had a lot of time on their hands to mesh almost all the couch openings, excuse the German titles towards the end. Btw, I like when they jump into their eyes.

Jam.

"Hey, I want to say something. I’ve been trying to be more honest lately and I just need to say a few things. I did the coal walk! Just, I did it. Michael, you couldn’t even do that. Maybe I should be your boss. Wow, I feel really good right now. Why didn’t any of you come to my art show? I invited all of you. That really sucked. It’s like sometimes, some of you act like I don’t even exist. Jim, I called off my wedding because of you. And now we’re not even friends. And things are just like weird between us, and that sucks. And I miss you. You were my best friend before you went to Stamford. And I really miss you. I shouldn’t have been with Roy, and there were a lot of reasons to call off my wedding. But the truth is, I didn’t care about any of those reasons until I met you. And now you’re with someone else, and that’s fine. It’s … whatever. That’s not what I’m … I’m not … okay my feet really hurt. The thing that I’m just trying to say to you, Jim, and to everyone else in the circle I guess, is that I miss having fun with you. Just you, not everyone in the circle. Okay, I am gonna go walk in the water now. Yeah, it’s a good day."
--- Pam Beesley

Can I say finally? I had to post that whole speech up. Last night's episode was too classic. Stanley coming at Jim as a sumo wrestler, Andy floating away, all Dunder Mifflin minus pasty Toby singing on the bus to the "beach."Yes, props to Pam confronting Jim especially in front of Karen. Season finale next week! Cliffhanger?

Keep Cool My Babies.

All of you know last week Conan O'Brien brought his show to San Francisco and I was lucky enough to watch Wednesday's show. Btw, Wednesday was declared "Conan O'Brien Day" in San Francisco. The day started with waiting in the yellow line (what up?) and getting our tickets. Got in line outside the Orpheum Theatre around 10:30am. During our wait, I got a free Google pen, monster drink, and a free Conan foam hair (pictured) after a sorority tried and failed to sell it to me for a dollar. After 5 some odd hours, we finally got to enter. We sat near the side studio door and got to see La Bamba and the "ASS" from the ILM skit. Hilarious. And who knew security actually used the metal detectors but didn't even give my purse a thorough look around. Then at 3:30 everyone entered the beautiful theatre and we got lucky enough to grab aisle fifth row seats.

Supposedly a frisbee champion was suppose to be a guest but he didn't appear in the opening, I was a bit disappointed, I wanted to grab a frisbee. But I was lucky enough to see one of my favorite actors, Robin Williams, as a guest at my first live television taping. And the Glide Ensemble was to perform. Before the show the warm up guy, Brian McCann, I recognize him from previous sketches, came out to pump up the already pumped crowd. The middle finger to the people who just walked in was perfect. Then Max Weinberg 7 came out and played a few songs. Props to the trumpeter who blew it hard and long. Ha. Then Joel came out, I never knew his hair was that long, and announced the guests. Easiest job ever. Conan came out on the replica of the Golden Gate Bridge ("We had a replica of the Bay Bridge but it collapsed.") So awesome. Everyone had their signs and Conan actually pulled the free foam and put it on. The audience was so loud he even pretended to sleep. Our city really needs a talk show.

It's so refreshing when it's your town being talked about. Newsome jokes, plastic bags, fuck Charles Barkley. Small talk news is so much funnier when your talking about BART and freeways you take. It's funny to see all the stage hands holding the cue cards during that segment. Max and Conan stone faces are brilliant.

Since we were lacking one guest, the show was filled with pre-taped segments. First was the Sam Wo commercial. Hilarious, makes me want to eat there. Then the turning of the cable car, special place in my heart, see below. And his final segment was his trip to Napa, wine country. When he pulled out the humongous wine glass for sampling and wine glass helmet, I was dying. Also high points: car crashing, wine cave, dirty music during the glass shaft into barrel bunghole, singing "Desperado," quick change to the pipe, crying with an empty glass in the fields.




Now I must talk about my 15 minutes 5 seconds of fame. During one of the sketches, Conan ran
into the aisle and out of the studio for the cable car segment. I was lucky enough to be at the aisle where he ran out and got myself a high five! Really that made my year. Then he came back and I got another. If you recorded the show you can actually see me for a couple seconds when he tried to grab a foam hair piece from the girl behind me. Thanks to the folks to said they saw me. Those seconds are up.

Robin came out and was being as kooky as ever. He ran up the bridge to audience members shouting "jump," yeah I said it too. Being in a crowd gets to you. He talked about the city and described Castro as "Boystown." He showed a clip of his new movie License to Wed ; good clap joke. Robin is a talker, and the stage hand wrote 30 seconds on his white board to wrap up that interview up plenty of times. Oh I just remembered the transgendered TransAmerica tower in a Trans Am, and the steroid calf legs on Pierre Benard was so weird looking in person. Really what was that made of?

The best part of the show was being able to see what happens when the cameras aren't rolling. When the segments air, Conan is either talking to producers on his next lines or drinking watering and bobbing his head. During one point some older hippie man was popping to Max Weinberg Seven and Conan actually danced along with him. Too bad they didn't catch that on tape. Also after the monologue, the crew pulling the set onto the stage and off. Also, I love the "woo's" and the "ooww" and people yelling "warriors," I'm pretty sure you can hear me at least once. The stage hands took really long when setting up for the Glide Ensemble so we were just sitting there being antsy. They were pretty good and it felt like a church, whole audience was clapping along.

The show ended roughly around 5. After the show, Conan actually signed for awhile. People threw panties, signs, and a statistic book, which he happily signed. And I got to take pictures, muaha security guards. Outside we went and waited for the guests. I missed Robin, he left during the show, but Joel came out and made his crazy face and LaBamba and the band. I waited outside for an hour, and was actually on NBC11 news waving stupidly to my dad. Then Conan was signing for awhile but stupid newscaster (ASS) took him away as he was about to sign my ticket. Oh well. The show was perfect and next time I hope to see him in New York.

The Best of the rest:
- Conan tours SF Part 1, Part 2
- Conan at Industrial Light & Magic
- Will Arnett awesome air guitar
- Dana Carvey and Conan duet
- ASS!

Hotness.

It's almost 7, and the weather is not cooling. The sun is shining, neighbors are BBQing and washing their cars, yet I stuck in my home with my sweaty palms typing my homework. Weather is trippin that I am wearing shorts. Crazy mayn. Anyway I am not totally melting away, I do have my breaks to eat some yummy snacks. Today I'd like to share with you what I've been eating, Sharon's Sorbet raspberry. Really pick any flavor up at Trader Joe's for only $1.99 and very little calories you fattys. I really could devour one pint on my own. Delicious, enjoy! =D

Procrastination.

Bad. I need to stop and get my work done. I put my away up but really I'm on Youtube or Myspace. IM me. Itunes doesn't help either. Today went by super fast and now I'm watching a rerun of SNL of Christina Aguilera - "eeeelena" and her impression of Samantha is too good. Okay I should really should start my papers now. I'm lagging because the fact that I could finish my paper in a hour. I tried studying for my journalism final but that was so booooring. Okay let me watch some Lost and get cracking on production paper.

WE BELIEVE.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO! BABY!

You give love.

Wow. Blake is (one of) the most original artists on American Idol. During rock night, he killed it with his version of "You Give Love A Bad Name." He actually made the song his own, and beatboxed! I miss him with his blonde but the darker do is cool for the darkhorse. Will he win? Right now I think he's the underdog but if he nails next week possibly he could be in the top 2 with Melinda.

Superbad.

Rated R trailer makes me want to watch this movie oh so much more.
