Ross Ching’s latest short film but not-so-short-film premiered earlier today on Wired.com. The reason why it’s not exactly a short film is because it’s actually a clip of a feature film that has yet to be made. I had a chance to chop it up with the two producers of the film and it definitely sounds like some exciting things are cooking. Check it out~
I haven’t been able to watch any of the previous 5 games live, but through Facebook, Twitter, news articles, blogs, and highlights on YouTube, I very quickly and proudly jumped onto the Linsanity bandwagon. Heck yah. What he stands for is what I thrive for! Not only is he also a 2nd generation Taiwanese American who has quite possibly become the most widely recognized Asian American public figure within just the last week, he has brought such a positive light into the mainstream, giving all the glory to God, and that is freakin’ AWESOME.
In late 2010, I got to see Jeremy play while I was up in the Bay and I remember thinking how crappy it was how little playtime he got. I could barely see what kind of skills he had then. I mean, nobody was passing the ball to him :[ Here’s my footage from that night (totally stalkerish):
Mind you, I’m not one that follows the NBA or knows anything about stats, etc., but I’d definitely heard about Jeremy a few years ago (probably from Angry Asian Man). Then I started to see him around here and there. And BOOM, now he’s in the spotlight with all eyes on him. Exciting times to be Asian American. Year of the Dragon… coincidence? I think not. I’m definitely rooting and praying for Jeremy!
Finally, for someone who never really cared for sports paraphernalia, I’m about to stock up on Jeremy Lin gear. This is one of them (MY LINJA! by MY NINJA!):

P.S. – Jeremy, if you’re reading this~ don’t let all these blogs get to your head Haha. But you obviously don’t need me to tell you that!
Thought it was interesting that the last few songs that I’ve come across have all had the word “dream” in the lyrics. I’m definitely a dreamer!
For you Asians on YouTube fans, here’s a newly released video with a lot of familiar faces. A day in the life of DANakaDAN from afterschoolspecial (kind of):
Another new release from Verseatile. I’m digging this song:
And new music from Bak (I’ve used a # of his beats in my editing) and Justin Fong (At Last/Tatum Jones):
I like this new vid of Arden’s. It definitely displays her taste in clothing. Simple, classy, and feminine! Not sure I can pull these off the way she can, but I may have to borrow a few things here and there. Haha.
Dig these looks? You can find a lot of the items in the vid on DailyLook (Arden has also listed the items and posted links here). Sign up now and get 20% off: http://bit.ly/uCvc72 – Thanks, Arden!
Michelle Phan is definitely one of the most talented young women I know. She’s a visionary artist who transcends the art of makeup. I love that she’s writing and directing short narrative pieces for her tutorials! Check it out. Just in time for NYE:
