Well, just wanted to point out that I started school at Long Beach State today. And NO, I'm not gonna mention anything about Denise (except what I just said).

Dayamn, I just heard on the news right now that R&B singer Aaliyah died in a plane crash today. She was coming back to the U.S. from the Bahamas when the accident occurred. She and 8 other people were killed.

R.I.P. to those that died.

Today I saw the Kevin Smith film Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back. Chasing Amy was better...but this film was still hilarious! Jay is a cool character...for the sole fact he cusses in every other sentence that he blurts out! Silent Bob is hilarious for the sole fact he is always, well, quiet--and Jay always makes fun of him in front of other people. It was cool that Kevin Smith included so many cameos in this film...although it kinda annoyed me that some of my friends who I watched the film with don't know who Mark Hamill is. LUKE SKYWALKER, people!! And Carrie Fisher a.k.a. Princess Leia was the nun who Jay was gonna get all crazy on in the car! Speaking of which, you can obviously tell Smith is a diehard Star Wars fan with all the references he made in the movie...the title obviously included.


Anyways, I'm done with watching all of the films of Summer 2001. Can't wait for next year when Spider-Man and Attack of the Clones come out. Woo-hoo!

Saturday, I went to my friend's sister's wedding. The newlywed couple both graduated from Bishop Amat High School a year before I did. It was a fun wedding...mainly for the fact it lasted only 30 minutes (but it'd still have been interesting if it was longer). We then went to the reception...which was only a couple of blocks away from the church. Both places were in Whittier. And as you can see--I didn't put much effort into making this entry sound more interesting, haha. Congratulations to my friend's sister and her groom, though.

It's been a while since I went to an import show. Yesterday, I went to the Import Showoff in Little Tokyo in downtown L.A. The reason I went was to meet a hot model name Christine Mendoza. I saw her as well as popular import model Nikki Cash and Flo Jalin...who I know from a travel brochure I got in Maui last year.


Dealing with the automobile aspect of the show, on display was the car driven by rap star Ja Rule in The Fast and the Furious. Pretty dope. I was looking for other "celebrity cars"...but that was the only one on hand from the film.

"Suck me, beautiful!" Today, I saw American Pie 2 with a couple of my friends...and just wanted to say it was pretty funny. The bad thing though, is that Shannon Elizabeth's accent as Nadia is more painful to hear after hearing her talk normal in the first Scary Movie. Oh well. There were still a lot of funny scenes though...like Steve Stifler thinking champagne was getting poured on him even though it was, um...well, you'll know when you have to go to the restroom to unload your kidneys later on.


Last film I wanna see this summer...Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back.

Well, I just wanted to point out that the official Star Wars website has just announced the title for Episode 2. The entire name for the prequel-sequel will be, roll drums (sarcasm?):
Attack of the Clones

I kinda prefer The Clone Wars, A Shadow Falls or The Darkness Within, but that's okay. People didn't like the name The Phantom Menace when it originally came out...and now it's tolerated as much as Jar Jar Binks. No wait, that didn't sound good! Anyways, I neither love the title nor hate it. I'm just like..."EH." As long as the movie itself delivers. A'ight then, latez people.

Hopefully, Lucasfilm won't find this website:

MY APOLOGIES if I'm spoiling the movie for y'all...these drawings are just too cool!!
By the way, R.I.P. to the algae eater in my family's aquarium that passed away on Sunday. I'll miss you little critter... On the plus side, the albino fish that we got in August of 1999 seems to be in good health still.

I saw Rush Hour 2 last Friday and needless to say, it was funny! One of the best quotes from the film (not to imply some racial stuff or anything): Jackie Chan's "I'll b*tchslap you back to Africa" line. Hahaha! That counteracts Chris Tucker's earlier "I'll slap you back to the Ming Dynasty" remark. Hopefully there'll be a Rush Hour 3. Anyways, an import model was an extra in the film...Ms. Natasha Yi. She's hot! It's a good thing I took a picture with her at an Asian model show last November. All I need is an autograph by her and I'd be famous. Zhang Ziyi isn't so bad either (at least in this film), and neither is Rosalyn Sanchez, who played some U.S. Secret Service babe in the film.

Woohoo! Only 26 days left before the Fall semester at Long Beach State begins!! I'm excited!...Just kidding. Actually, I'm not. Now that Denise ain't e-mailing me anymore, signaling that we ain't coo anymore, I get to walk on campus without worrying about trying to walk up to that (expletive) and saying hi to her. Well happy days! All right, if you excuse me, I'm gonna go off somewhere and cry 'cause Denise ain't e-mailing me. Hahahahaha! Just kidding, again.
