Poorly prepared, yet reality demands

About Me

So, here we are... two people meeting for the first time through an electric box. Such serendipity. Hey, I'll begin with the small introductions: Me: In a past life, I was Dr. Vixen for SAM Magazine--the premier, sexy Asian American men's magazine--and before that, the muse Terpsichore for aspiring writers and poets at the University of California. Although law school is calling me, I find it hard being 100% practical because I'm easily distracted by art galleries and rock concerts. Maybe Entertainment Law is my calling... possibly. Maybe. In truth, I'm a grownup dork: I'm an adrenaline junkie, I don't eat pork cause it smells like butt, I sing DECEPTACON and other LeTigre songs in the shower, I have mastered the fine art of running in highheels just like Wonder Woman, I have nomadic tendencies, and I walk a lot. I mean, really, really, a lot. A dozen miles or so a day. But I have a butt made of steel.

My Interests

MY PAJAMAS ( And I LOVE TURA YAMAGUCHI! I also love my close circle of true-blue friends whom I waste no time or excuses to shack it up, shake it up, and make it up as we go along the party line.

I'd like to meet:

Publishing is a wonderful business... and I'm glad I got the glamourous gigs! I have to admit: Ben Fong-Torres was my aspiration. So, I've done radio, magazines, newspapers, did my own prints, won my own awards, and now I have everything I want! Also, I've done red carpet for MTV, VH1, had dinner with Andy Lau (Hong Kong's edition of Tom Cruise), dined with lesbian comic book artists, been an NFL judge (the power!), entertained invites from the Playboy Mansion, friends have popped up in the tabloids, and the whole schpeel. Blah Blah Blah. But better yet, I'm interested in meeting you--and hearing what you're working on! What's up in your world. I'm also a dancing queen. My inner gay man tells me that evenings are not well spent if I'm not covered in glitter, with my left eardrum burst and clothes reaking of gin and tonic. My friend DJ Donovan put it best: "Many of us live extraordinary lives in an afterhours world most do not comprehend. . . . Contrary to popular belief, the majority of the San Francisco afterhour partiers are post-college graduates between the ages of 25-35 and typically corporate professionals making a very handsome living.  Their attraction to the club scene and house music is an interesting phenomenon that I can only explain from my own personal experience. " From the Endup to the Top of the Mark, Harry Denton's Starlight Lounge and Club Cocomo, let's do it all! I am currently working with many representatives of the alternative press... so if you have any travel ideas, insights, or funny anecdotes, send them on over. I always love hearing a new story. I cover Formula D racing from time to time (but I have never done import modeling), and I always like to hear from newbies and veterans of the trade! Who do I think is the cutest girl from the track? I'd have to say Sunisa Kim from Yokohama Tires. That's my two cents.EVERYONE HAS HAD A LESBIAN FANTASY. So have I... now eat this picture. WHO I DON'T WANT TO MEET: if you send me a friend request and I see that your list of intimates is just a series of anonymous tits and asses, don't expect a serious reply beyond a well-articulated rejection. I'm not interested in being a digibeauty. NO PIMPS, NO GANGSTAHS, NO HIGH SCHOOL KIDS. PERIOD.And please, no more pompous, self-righteous artists posturing as the next Che Guevarra just because they can quote the tag line from "Motorcycle Diaries." Thanks.

Music:

Beth Gibbons, Deep Dish, The Cure, Elastica, Lush, Belly, Sigur Ros, Terranova comin ovah, Zongamin, Massive Attack, Tindersticks, Depeche Mode, Japanese Krautrock, hardcore, industrial, Juno Reactor, Foetus Corruptus, Zeromancer, Laika, Snowpony, Mum, Bjork/Sugarcubes, Echo and the bunnymen (I know I'm a total 80s child), Mos Def, Jill Scott (cause I sing her songs from time to time), Sarah and Ella and Billie, Nina Simone, Bt circa 1990-1997 (he's so gross in real life!), Adult, Motorcycle, Jeff Buckley makes me sad in a good way, and classical guitar in the Italian and Spanish traditions.

Movies:

But I'm a Cheerleader, Ma Vie en Rose, CARO ET JEUNET BLASTS YOU ALL!!, Battle Royal, Aeon Flux, Trainspotting, La Cite des Enfants Perdus, Scotland Pa, Les 400 Coups, Todo Sobre mi Madre, Breakfast of Champions, Amelie, Donnie Darko, The Seventh Seal, Un Chien Andaloux, Malena (with Monica Bellucci who is sooooo HOT!), and From Hell (not as good as the comic)

Television:

I don't watch TV. I'd have to stay home to do that. I may as well glue the potato chips right onto my ass. But I DO like to listen in on a good, juicy bit of TV/Film gossip!

Books:

SAMIZDAT!! I like my poetry DaDa and my Surrealist writers FLAMINGLY homosexual. Give me some Inagaki Taruho, Henri Michaux, Andre Breton and Max Ernst and I'm a happy lit whore. I like macaronic verse and I prefer metonyms to metaphors. Now this isn't malapropism, but I quite fancy a long-winded, run-on sentence posing as literature. That's neat-o. Do you like Haruki Murakami's Sputnik Sweetheart and other lispings of the asiatic tongue? Then come over and join the ranks with Sean O'Toole and me as we sail off into the literary seas. Come on--we wear cool blue underpants.

Heroes:

Andre Breton, Pierre & Gilles, Jesus, Louise Bourgeois, Marlene Dietrich and the indescribable Christopher Walken.
