__________________________________________________________________________________________________ January 23, 2012  This is Elly Tran Ha and apparently no one knows anything about her except that she was born here, raised in Vietnam and has an internet following. Different sites mention that she's a blogger but no link. But than again, maybe we don't need to know that much about her afterall, its not like she's going to be on an exam or quiz show, "Alex, I'll take asian models for 200".
January 22, 2012  For some reason, the 3rd movie of any series usually sucks donkey balls including Die Hard (Bruce Willis running around New York with Samuel L.Jackson = fail), Alien (Sigourney Weaver running around like Sinead O'Connor = fail ) and Underworld (Old man Bill Nighy running around = Fail). Thankfully we're at number 4 and Kate Beckensale returns, still looking good in her black leather outfit, taking names and asking questions later...and now. Waking up and escaping from a frozen sleep 12 years later, Selene finds out the lycans are at it again, trying to biologically create super werewolves and antidotes for their bane to silver. Also the vampires always have some internal drama but they keep that short and sweet. Oh wait, does Selene have a kid aka "subject 2" - worst kept secret ever. The story is pedestrian but the 2nd half of the film picks up when they just let Selene be the "deathdealer", runnning around with her machine pistols, jump 20 feet in the air and doing vampire fu on everyone else. Its not the best movie but its still better than Twilight. Did I like this movie: yes
January 18, 2012  Rappers and ballers be makin it rain dolla dolla bills at the clubs but Yong Chun Kim be burning his singles and fives to keep warm in the snowy slopes of Mt. Ranier in Washington. This 66 year old guy got lost hiking/snow shoeing in this crazy blizzard so instead of giving up or cutting his hand for no good reason, he starts finding shelters in tree wells, sleeping for 5 to 10 minutes at a time while standing and burning socks, band aids, whatever and some money to keep warm. For details of the story, read this. This guy a stud and there should be more stories about him rather than Pinkberry co-founder, Young Lee beating up on a homeless guy because of some tattoo.
 SOPA: Stop Online Piracy Act. The bills sound good but no they're not. The original intention of these bills are to prevent online piracy but its written in a way that it allows the government to target and censor user information sites. For more information, go here! If Google, Wikipedia and President Obama think this bill sucks, maybe there's something to it. Weird, usually I'm more into black civil rights (not Asian rights cuz c'mon, we actually have it pretty good and Asian activist get all uptight because the flight attendant in a god damn Asian in some mini cooper commercial?), but you know, I use google and wikipedia a lot.
January 16, 2012  This is Misa Campo. She's got a few you tube videos floating around and although most video's of photo shoots are boring, she's entertaining enough - anyone who does a bad robot dance is a good start to end racism....ok, everyone has a dream. Even if its ridiculous. January 11, 2012  You think I should take him down? Whats the longest you're suppose to leave your Christmas decorations up, 2 weeks after Christmas, the New Year, Chinese New Year?
January 08, 2012  Sometimes my friends ask me to settle disputes from money to in law issues. It can be tricky and complicated. Today, Jenny writes "Martin says you don't eat breakfast?" Dear Jenny, Thanks for asking. In general, I do not eat breakfast. But here's some trivia about breakfast and I. a. when i was a kid, my breakfast always consisted of sliced oranges. Everyday. Sliced oranges. Occasionally, we would have oatmeal. Oranges seemed to be always tart so I didn't understand why I had to keep eating this color that would make my fingers sticky and my tongue curl up.. And when it was oatmeal, we only added milk and the option of a raw egg. No sugar. Again, "what the hell is this I am eating?" On rare occasions, we got avocado! Yay! b. in community college, i would meet my 2 platonic girl friends in the cafeteria and have a muffin. They were white, smart and had no boobs. The muffin was blueberry. c. somewhere down the line, I ate a real American breakfast consisting of eggs, sausages and a healthy helping of hashbrown potatoes. I would eat so from time to time. I eventually realized that I regretted eating breakfast because I was still stuffed at noon and I couldn't eat lunch. That made me sad. d. in grown up college, the "Treehouse" had the bruin breakfast which consisted of 3 pancakes, 3 eggs, 3 sausages and 3 bacons for 3.99. It was something ridiculously cheap. I remember thinking I should come back as an adult for this incredible offer if I was every hungry - They never seemed to check id that early in the morning. e. pancakes. They're really just desserts for the morning aren't they? f. When you guys ask me for breakfast, I always feel giddy because I think I'm getting secret time with you guys. After all, I rarely see the 2 of you with other people in your pajamas. g. I sometimes eat "breakfast" when I pick up my client in Tustin to help me stay awake.. I usually get a turkey sandwich from 7-11. They're a bit small but I enjoy them and it got me to appreciate jack cheese and wheat bread. h. If people ever make disparaging remarks about "lazy Mexicans", I point at the Ihop near my house on Sunday mornings. The kitchen staff runs like a machine and the servers balance multiple stacked dishes filled with food as they take them to your table. Its an amazing sight to see. i. I have been reading that it is better to lose weight if you eat breakfast. I assume something small, not like a 841 calorie "Moons over My Hammy". j. Apples are now my thing for breakfast. Red delicious apples. k. if you ask me for breakfast, I will always join you but I cannot eat on Friday to Monday since I have to go to Tustin in the mornings. I get back around 10:30
