Diary Entry 11/16/09

Hey Kids. Here's a preview of what you're about to read: shopping, musicals, dreams, humor, randomness, your mom. If any of that sounds interesting to you please read on, otherwise please leave because I'm not in a good mood.

Actually, I haven't been in a good mood for a while. I don't know if it's my "man-struation" cycle making me moody or if I'm depressed. I'd like to think I'm not depressed because when I see those anti-depressant medication commercials, I freak out.



Here's how I saw that: there's a blob with a face and a frown slowly moving around looking paranoid while a bird flies around it. Then it starts to rain because that's what happens when you're depressed. Then after the blob takes the medication a flower suddenly appears on the ground and the cloud goes poof and the bird reappears from behind it, which is to suggest that you might get hallucinations from being drugged. It's okay because you'll start to smile again, and be able to bounce around (even though you're a blob with no feet, but what isn't possible when you're high, right?).

Diary Entry 11/09/09

This is how I intended this blog to be all along: as a personal diary with my thoughts and comments regarding pop culture on the side, or like an appetizer, but certainly not like the main course its been the past several weeks. Let me know if you miss it and I'll incorporate it more often. Otherwise I'll mostly post entries like they were from my diary. I chose to use the term diary because it's cuter than calling it a journal. Journals are too professional and I think a diary is like inviting someone into your home, which is what I want to do; so come on in, but don't touch anything. And take your shoes off because I'm Asian.

Dear Diary,

I hope you know how lucky you are to be an electronic medium because life is fucking stressful. It's like a really long movie that only you will watch. When you're dead. Okay, I'm not really that depressed, but life has been pretty hard to handle recently. I barely have time to watch episodes of my favorite shows on Hulu over the weekend. That's how bad it is.

!!! gLee !!!

Don't need a catchy heading for this post because the title speaks for itself. Or I guess sings for itself in this case. Let's cut to the chase: this is the BEST show of the season, and the only show I've been religiously watching this year. I'm sure you feel the same way, and if you don't, get with it. Everybody's doing it. Like heroin for your ears and crack for your tone-deaf friends. Check it out:





Many more posts to come, but let's start the a few discussion topics, shall we? Sue Sylvester is my favorite character and here's why: She says the best things I've ever heard ever. Ever. Here are some selected quotes from the show, and the first 5 are from Sue:

"You think this is hard. I'm living with Hepatitis, that's hard."

"I like minorities so much, I'm thinking of moving to California to become one."

"Let me be frank: Your husband is hiding his Kielbasa in a Hickory Farms Gift Basket that doesn't belong to you."

"I empower my Cheerios to be champions. Do they go to college? I don't know. I don't care. Should they learn Spanish? Sure, if they wanna become dishwashers and gardeners."

"I'll often yell at homeless people: 'hey, how is that homelessness working out for you? try not being homeless for once.'"

"This is where our daughter or gay son will sleep."

"You may think that every guy in school would totally want to tap this, but my myspace schedule keeps me way too busy to date."

"Have you ever liked somebody so much you just wanna lock yourself in your room, turn on sad music and cry?"

There's nothing like a musical on television. I've always dreamed of going through life and occasionally bursting into song and dance in public. It just hasn't happened yet. Let me know if you're interested and we can stage it one day. I can follow you with a camera for a few minutes and you can catch me being creepy, then scream and make a big scene, after which we'll go right into a live performance of Paparazzi by Lady Gaga. Seriously let's do it.

As always, I'd love you more if you clicked the follow button on the right panel. And tell your friends about it. And I'd even consider loving you any way you want, as long as it's clean and safe and we video tape it. If you subscribe to my blog, that is. XOXO.

Britain's Taking Over My Ipod!

Omg I'm so British. So Aside from the hours I devote watching clips from UK's X Factor, I'm also on a constant search for good British music. I think it's my European heritage calling out to me or something because every time I watch Harry Potter I become the biggest bloke you've ever met, with the most Asian looking face you've ever seen. The combination is deadly, I know. Hi, my name is Cho Chang. It's like that, except I'm nothing like that stupid whore.

Back to the topic now. I know I tend to go on tangents a lot so if that annoys you let me know and I'll send you an email. Telling you to shut the fuck up. It's my blog, what.

Anyway, let me tell you about this new obsession I've stumbled upon. Her name is Cheryl Cole and she is fantabulous! And gorgeous. And so sassy, I love it.

She entered a talent competition a million years ago and eventually joined 4 other contestants to form what is now one of the most successful British girl bands of all time, Girls Aloud (this will be another post one day, trust). Then in 2008 she joined Simon Cowell and 2 other judges, both of whom I don't care about, on UK's X Factor, gaining her major recognition as "UK's sweetheart" as well as becoming the new face of L'Oréal. She's also a fashion icon. Bombshell!

Cut to the best part: her solo album and her first single, which by the way, is so so so hot. Serious. I dance naked to it every morning before I get ready to go to class. And it's been cold outside these days so you know it has to be a hot song to get my lazy ass out of bed.

The song is called Fight For This Love, and for some reason YouTube won't allow me to embed the video so you're just gonna have to click on the link the old fashion way. Sorry. Watch it. The choreography is insane.

Let me know what you think, even though I don't care, but I'm sure other people might. Also if this is your first time reading, FOLLOW! And tell your friends to follow. And your mother. You know what, might as well post the url as your facebook status, how about that. You'll thank me later when your friends tell you how cool you are for reading this shit. You're welcome. XOXO.

Break Over!

Hi guys, remember me? Life has been intense so I haven't published anything in a while, sorry about that. Actually, school has been intense, social life has been stunted due to school. And sleep has been non-existent due to me trying to gather the remains of my social life.

The good news is I'm back, or at least trying to be back. It's not the best comeback; I'm sure you've seen better. I promise next time I go missing for a few weeks I'll come back to tell you about some drug addiction or that I was slapped into a hospital bed by my pimp. Or something really interesting.

Stay tuned...new posts coming up soon...

Shut Up, You're Stupid. Vampires ARE Real. Part 1!

That's right. You know what I'm referring to. Well, actually you probably don't because there are now more vampires in the media than I care for. So this is a post for all the vamps, die hard fang fans, fang-bangers, people who want to do V, people who went to Forks recently for "personal" reasons, and the miscellaneous followers with reasons I can't even think of and quite frankly don't want to think of because they're probably way too hardcore and filthy for my imagination.

I'm splitting this post into 2 parts. This first part will be very Twilight intensive and the second part will be all about True Blood. I don't care for that new show, The Vampire Diaries, but if any of you have strong feelings for it, or any other vamp related media, feel free to comment and I'll see if that moves me to check it out.

I was always a fan of Buffy growing up so I think that show really set me up well for the craziness that happened to me last year, and again recently. This is very revealing and I feel a bit vulnerable writing about that part of my life for the public to read, but as many of you can relate to, I died a bit after I read Twilight, and continued to die throughout the other 3 books in the series. I stopped dying for a bit while reading Breaking Dawn though because I had to vomit. I mean, what the fuck was that?! I never want to read about a monster fetus forcing the mother to eat raw meat and destroying her from the inside ever again. Ever. But you still need to read it anyway.

Basically, the real reason you need to read the Twilight series is because Edward Cullen will change your life. You will never want a fictional character to be real more than Edward Cullen. I won't go into detail because I'm resisting the urge to re-read the series again. School starts next week and I can't risk missing class, skipping water to drink fruit punch and pretending it's blood, buying eyeliner, alienating my friends by quoting lines from the Twilight trailer, etc. Seriously. I'm sorry.

I might go into this more in later posts, but for now this is it. I'm sure I'll post something for New Moon after I see it. This won't turn into a vampire blog, but I'd love it if you'd comment so we can discuss this topic further. Stay tuned for the second part about True Blood...

"For Everyone in the Room, 2000 Yeses!"

If you can't already tell, I love music. Here's another music post, but I promise this won't turn into a music blog, because I have other interests as well. It's anything I'm addicted to at the moment, really. Like I said before, I'm a pop culture addict and I'm doing my best to get you hooked as well. You're welcome.

I found another video on YouTube that I've been watching over and over and over... I think you might as well subscribe to TheXFactorUK if you have a YouTube account. American Idol with British accents. Need I say more?



So this guy is pretty fabulous. He's says he's "a normal bloke" and "a normal geezer" but watch out. He can sing, he can dance, he can entertain. I really didn't expect much from him, and even when he started singing, he didn't sound too sensational, but then he goes further into the song and started to get more soulful, started to dance a bit, then a lot, and by the time he started to get down I couldn't close my mouth because I was jizzing in my pants it was such a fantastic performance. His dancing reminds me of a more subtle Michael Jackson, or a more masculine Ellen Degeneres. With great fashion and a captivating smile.

Must Listen! I Like To Dance by Hot Chelle Rae!

The other day I couldn't sleep so I sat on my bed eating candy and watching videos on YouTube. I came across this AMAZING band called Hot Chelle Rae. They are awesome. Seriously. Check it out!

About two seconds later I downloaded their single, I Like to Dance, on iTunes. It's been playing on a loop on my ipod for the past few days.

That's how I do things though. I have a bit of an addictive personality so I will usually get hooked on something and exhaust it for days or even weeks. The good thing is it's usually music or something less expensive than crack but still gets you high enough to have some fun. Then, like a classically trained addict, I get everyone around me involved as well so we can all get hooked together. Because I'm such a good friend. And that's what I'm doing right now. Friend. So listen to this song. Then get it. Then subscribe to this blog. So we can be real friends.
