Things that give me the sad:

The phrase “Oh, so you’re trying to be an actress?”  No.  I AM an actress.  I even got a degree in it.  Are you trying to be a doctor?  Quick, cut me open!  Get some practice!  

Being accused of having an Asian ‘fetish.’  Being attracted to Asian guys does not make me abnormal or strange, and I am by no means only attracted to Asian men.  Joseph G-L, anyone?!  Reblogging kpop guys with insane bodies is just a little hobby of mine.  But…if Jay Park asked, I would totally marry him.  Even though he is my height.  We can overcome it.  He would probably still have swag in high heels.

Being asked how much $$$ I make.  Isn’t this still considered rude?  I would never ask you how much you make after hearing what kind of job you do.  ”You were in that movie?  How much does that pay?”  In my book it’s still up there with asking about weight and age…or…did I miss a memo?  Did they make an announcement when I was in the bathroom?!  That always happens to me.

Working background on a set and sitting in holding for 8 hours, and then when you finally decide to go to the bathroom and come back, everyone has been taken to set and then you have to panic.  Yes.  That makes me sad.

Grown-Up Haikus

Some of my more recent adventures, in haiku form.

———————————————————————

Dropped my phone in pee

Can’t afford a cleaner one

P-Phone still works fine.

———————————————————————

Just got my ears pierced

“Oops!  You moved!  I’ll re-do it!”

What a load of crap.

———————————————————————

Walking down the street

Talking loudly to myself

“Please don’t murder me, shadow!”

———————————————————————

I wear lipstick now

Thought we looked the same before…

I am now my mom.

———————————————————————

New computer swag

Spent way too much money, but

I have MINESWEEPER!

———————————————————————

Meeting famous guys

Is hard, I’m running out of

Cute panties to throw. 

———————————————————————

John Favreau’s high fives

Are painful and amazing

My poor hand still stings.

———————————————————————

Hey, Bateman! You can

Arrest my development

Whenever you want.

———————————————————————

John Cho asked me where

To buy a hamburger here…

What Happened Yesterday: The New Computer!

I am about to spam your dash with tales of adventure.  But first: I wil first celebrate the amazing wonderfulness that is my NEW COMPUTER on which I am currently typing.  It feels amazing…I love it…it’s fast as lightning…has a great hard drive, processor, memory…and almost more important, one of the BEST webcams I’ve ever seen.  Video chat is a huge part of my life, both socially and for work, since I tutor via the internet, so picking a computer that has a crisp, bright webcam was really important.  I’m just floored by the bright video feed, even sitting in a dark room with no lights on.  

I replaced a Fujitsu Lifebook N6410…which weighed in at around 13 lbs…17.5” screen…that I used for over 6 years.  6 years with no issues whatsoever aside from normal slowness caused by internet goo.  Suddenly a couple months ago the dc jack ffiied though and while I payed to repair it, I knew I did not want to funnel more money into a 6 year old desktop replacement.  Then last Friday the dc jack popped and smoked and died again.  It’s currently at the computer hospital, because I hope to pass it on to my mom or keep it as a backup if she chooses to buy a new one…BUT…it was time to invest in a better machine and join the modern era. 

I still have a big computer…I love my 17.5” screen…I am not one to take my computer with me everywhere, but I AM one who LOVES to watch dramas and movies on her computer…People used to say to me “Oh my god!  Your computer screen is so big! Why?!  Why would you get a computer that’s so huge?!” But then I stick in a dvd or stream something.  That usually shuts them up.  :p

NO REGRETS!

This is my brain on 4 days of 12+ Hour Shoots:

Today’s highlights:

I had dinner with John Cho.  aka we stood outside and talked while we ate hotdogs.  Doesn’t Matter; Had Food

I pet Bateman’s dog.  It was cute.  And soft.  And probably eats a better balanced diet than I do.

So far this week…

I’ve been hanging out with Jason Bateman.  No big deal.  He was worried about me standing for 12 hours in heels and he used his star power to get me a chair.  Hellyes.

I also literally had a conversation about hamburgers with John Cho (Harold)…even though we weren’t talking about White Castle...and he shook my hand and said good morning with a little coy eyebrow-raise…

And Melissa Mccarthy smiled at me.

SWAG.

Also, I am being highly featured.  Yesterday especially the camera got all up in my face. 

(3 more days on this set! Great cast, wonderful crew, all-around good experience…and I’m surrounded by some fantastic people….I’m a happy camper!)
