A Weird Tweeter

Twitter is getting huge. Seems like everyone and their mom has Twitter accounts and have been tweeting about everything they do. Well have you got someone who has came up to you because they are one of your followers and would talk to you like they know you? Well that has happened to me a couple times but this time was kind of awkward. This person came up to me talking to me like they know me and talking about what's been going on and all of that. I am so relieved that I was with some people and he introduced himself to them so I found out his name that way. I pretty much just talked to him like I also knew him and talked about work and junk. It was so awkward I just didn't know what to do...

CelebrAsian 2009! We ROCKED it!

So this past Saturday was the big day of Iowa Asian Festival aka CelebrAsian 2009 and it was amazing! I have to say I was part of making that damn day successful! I took the part of stage director all day so pretty much I was manning the stage and making sure everything went according to plan and schedule. I had to say I worked all day and did a lot but at the end of the day it felt so good, and just the feeling of self-accomplishment is just too much for me to accept. I felt like I did a lot more that day than I do at my normal job and it was all volunteer work.

The headliners, Legaci were such awesome guys I have to say. I got to know them at a real level (Micah, Del, Chris and Jason). They're from the Bay Area and they can really sing and they harmonize really well. I kind of wish I had more a chance to hang out with them but I was busy with the stage and during the after party at Dolce I was a little too intoxicated to actually get to know them better. They were dope though I do appreciate them coming and giving us a really awesome show, I do hope to see them again here in Iowa or when I make that move to Cali, I gotta see another show.

Here's a little video I put together of CelebrAsian... I didn't get that many clips because I was working all day and kind of forgot I had it on me. I started recording toward the end of the day.



I want to say a personal Thank You to my friend Robin, I'm very thankful for including me in the Entertainment Committee I think we did awesome and it really does show that we were the best group of CelebrAsian, you know how to keep us motivated and really pushed us to get things done. I'm a little upset that we won't have these meetings anymore but I'm sure we'll continue our group activities.

Trust and So-Called "Friends"

I don’t get how people think I’m so naive. I know what’s going on… I’m not dumb. It surprises me people think that I’m so oblivious to everything, but in fact I know everything that is going on. I guess the issue is, is that I’m not a friend I’m just person that is cool to hang with. I don’t need to hang out with you, obviously that is why I don’t choose to hang out with you because trust is not there… I’ll go out drinking with you because I do like drinking but “friends” is not what I would consider you to be. Perspective I consider a friend that is there for me, who is willing to share their intimate feeling, don't think of me as a "friend" think of me as a colleague because obviously I'm not a person who you can trust. I'm a person that is pretty good with secrets (when it comes to friends) but now that I'm not considered as one I should just let everything "slip."

I can go without these people in my life because they are not true... I don't understand why I feel I need to protect these people it's not like they are looking out for me... I'm so broken, I wish I was a stronger person sometimes instead of a confidant.

Roadtrip to Amana Colonies


I had these little video clips of my cousins and I on a roadtrip to The Amana Colonies and I never thought to put them together until now. It was a fun trip, I didn’t really do a good job of documenting my trip but we went to this restaurant called Ox Yoke Inn, then went to a couple of meat stores and wineries. Great place to visit. I would totally go again just to go back to Ox Yoke Inn.

Lincoln Commercial


I just can't stop watching this video, I know it's a long Lincoln commercial but I love it down to the cast, music, clothes, and just the theme of it all. It's like an awesome night out!

So I Went to the New Kids Concert... Oh oh OHHHOH

Yes, I did I went to the New Kids on the Block concert this Monday, they were at Wells Fargo Arena. The main reason I went was because JabbaWockeez were going to be their opening act and if you know me from this site and outside of this blog I'm obsessed with them. Totally! I have their mask, shirts, hats, and gloves. So I know that right on the ticket it says no cameras and no recorders but I couldn't help myself and brought both anyway... I was kinda upset because as they were performing we were in the middle of finding our seats and I try to record as much as I can of their performance, I was so excited I could get some of them and took very little pictures because I was relying on recording them as much as I could...

So this bastard came up to me and grabbed my FlipVideo camera and deleted all my files telling me that I will not have it out again. I was like yeah whatever you say... We found our correct seats and so I was like hey since we're in the middle of all these people let's go ahead and record some more I mean I really wanted some footage of the Jabba's up there since I'm a big fan and all... So I had a lot of great footage and was happy that I got most of it. After they were done I was thrilled I got some great videos and can go home happy, I don't need to see New Kids... I wasn't really that big of fan of them anyway...

There was this long break after the JabbaWockeez performed and waited for New Kids, and we just stayed in our seats until it started. Finally they came on my cousin and friend was having a blast they loved the show and took lots of pictures on my camera I borrowed from my other cousin, Rosie. I was continuing on recording with my FlipVideo. Later as the show went on they went on a stage that was in the middle of the audience and performed a little there to work the crowd that had not so great seats in the front. We were all standing on our seats now and I was so damn close to them like literally seeing each wrinkle and sweat, even though I wasn't a fan it was kind of exciting that we were that close to them and they performed for all of us. I recorded as much as I did on my FlipVideo I was so excited I got this recording because it was such great footage of them singing. After they moved back to front again we got back on the floor and I put my Flip back into my pocket then someone grabbed my arm tightly telling me to give him my camera... SHIT! It was the same FUCK who deleted my stuff the first time! I was so mad at myself for letting myself get caught the second time and the same guy... (I guess I do stick out like a sore thumb since I was in a crowd filled with women. I say the ratio was around 1 of 100 were guys... So my night turned really sour from that on and I was just wanting the show to end right there because I was done, I put on a smile for the rest of the night to not ruin my cousin and friend's fun. So now, I went to this damn concert with only really planning to see the JabbaWockeez and now with no video proof of seeing them perform...

***Next day I went to my CelebrAsian Entertainment Meeting and my friend Robin went to the concert too telling me that during the break between JabbaWockeez and New Kids, the Jabba's were in the Hallway doing a signing and taking pictures... FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! I had to say that I cannot believe I wasted the time just sitting in my seats when I could've had my shirt signed and taken pictures with them. How messed up is this? Well I'll try to move on from this, I just wished I can redo this night all over again I would totally change everything we did. Hopefully when I move to California I would have more opportunities to check them out live.

Here are some pictures of some of the night... oh and I got like one shot of the JabbaWockeez on stage and it was really dark so it's not even a good one... UGH!!! (To see them all Click Here)
