About Me



I'm a son, brother, uncle, ninong, nephew, grandchild. I'm a wanderer. I'm a joker. I'm a friend. I'm a meanie. I'm a shoulder-to-cry-on. I'm a listener, an advice giver, a sinner, a saint. I'm mischievous and kind, serious and amicable, forgiving and forgetful. I'm thoughtful, I'm playful, I'm outrageous, I'm tolerant. I'm OCD. I'm humorous. I'm easy-to-please at times, and hard-to-please at others. I am me.

My Interests

people, places, things.

I'd like to meet:

i want to meet anyone worth meeting...?! How's that for generic? ;)

Music:

down for whatever, you know? music choice is definitely mood-related.

Movies:

at the root of it all, i think i end up loving 'family' movies most... but only cause i'm emo right now, and i miss my fam. the last 'family' movie i saw was cheaper by the dozen on DVD. loved it! last movie i saw at the theater was 300. fave actors-of-the-moment: Jude Law, Johnny Depp, Gerard Butler, Eric Bana, Kate Winslet, Franka Potente, Lena Headey, Renee Zellweger, Julia Roberts...

Television:

my must-see list: brothers & sisters, grey's anatomy when i can catch it, any of the CSI shows - among others. oh, the hills. ehehehe.

Books:

just read the last secret by steve barry. i like the DaVinci Code-ish type of stories, thriller stories (esp. by james patterson, etc.), asian american lit (amy tan, ninotchka rosca, peter bacho, maxine hong kingston, toshio mori). i think i'm going to read romulus, my father next... i saw the trailer for the movie, and i think i want to read the book.

Heroes:

JC...! (yeah, jesus is my homeboy!! *wink*)

My Blog

Funny Stuff...!

If you're familiar with Sex and the City, then I'm sure you'll get a kick out of this one. I didn't see this when it originally aired on TV, but I laughed so hard nonetheless. Enjoy! &nbs...

Shoes and the pursuit of happiness...

Last night I was leisurely surfing the net, half-heartedly looking at different shoe sites. I wasn't looking for anything in particular, but for some reason I started looking at new boots/chukkas (ha...

Goin' Greek...

On Friday night I saw 300. It was, easily, one of the best movies I've seen in a while. It totally reminded me of when I studied Greek mythology/history back in high school. All of the things I had l...

NEWS IN LA...

So the news programs in LA are not known for their CNN-esque real-time reporting. Unlike the news back in DC, LA-area news tends to center more on Hollywood than on Iraq, which is a damn sha...
