THIS SUMMER IS GOING TO KICKASS.

June 14, 2009

If I’m not updating this blog as usual starting today, then it probably means I’m having a kickass time doing kickass stuff.

Now what might be some of those kickass things I will be doing that’s so kickass for the summer you ask?

Well, I’m decorating my new bedroom (hey I consider that to be kickass thanks). I want my bedroom to scream…ohhh I don’t know…five-year-old girl with a sick and twisted fucked-up mind? Mebbe. I bought a bedroom set that’s actually meant for younger girls (lol);  it’s really adorable, has a pure cottage-vintagey taste to it, however, I’m planning to add certain things that will add a touch of creepiness to it, just a touch (An understatement? Mebbe).

I’ve already purchased two adorable plush taxidermy from T&A Friendly for my wall:

Next week, I will be going to Las Vegas for the first time for my brother’s fiance’s bachelorette party.  Part of the trip includes seeing Thunder Down Under, which I am a little nervous by, just ’cause I’m not so much turned on by male strippers. I think they’re gross.  I rather, very much, check out female strippers as oppose to seeing a squad of male strippers completely stripped of their manliness-doing awkward stripper dance routines to which I consider is more feminine.

Then there is my brother’s wedding.  And I get to have their place in Santa Ana all to myself for a couple of days when they’re at their honeymoon. There will be lots of furniture shopping, museums to check out, and foods to eat.

Lacuna Coil show in Hollywood with my kickass friends. Three goals I have for the show is to:

1. Rock out really hard with friends.
2. Not get hurt.
3. To add more deadliness into a deadly mosh pit by performing a roundhouse kick of death (but that could conflict with goal #2 wouldn’t it?)

And the best of all, Comic-Con and Video Games Lives in San Diego!  Will be dressing up as the female counterpart of Kakashi from Naruto!!

So there you have it, my kickass plans for the summer.  And if I’m not blogging as usual, you can look at these tasteful photos that was taken recently at Cheesecake Factory restaurant.  My beauty will surely keep you occupied entranced until the next entry…

E3 Expo 09

June 5, 2009

Yesterday Jules and I manage to go to E3 (thanks to Matt) and we had a blaaaast. I’m not really sure where to start, all I can think of at the moment is, there are a lot of games out there. Shit there are a lot. And there’s not enough time to play all of them-at least the one’s that suppose to kickass. Iuno what to do.

I played the Left4Dead 2 demo, and so far, it feels like it should be an expansion pack of the first Left4Dead because nothing has changed significantly. It was exactly like playing the original Left4Dead, but with added maps, characters, and weapons. I don’t think Valve is that dumb enough to create another copy just to make extra buck, but we’ll see.

Regardless, I’m looking forward to getting to know the new characters. They look really fun! Let’s see, you have a guy sporting an 80’s Miami Vicey outfit; some say he bears a striking resemblance to Julian McMahon from Nip/Tuck. You have this huge black man, who I think is freakin’ adorable, boy is he adorable! He’s the kind where you just want to give a big bear hug and tell him that everything’s going to be ok. You have a hot lookin’ white guy probably in his 20’s…that’s all I have to say about him so far. And finally, a chick, who already reminds me of Zoey because they’re the only girls in the game and they’re wearing pink, but I’m praying that she isn’t just a black version of Zoey, ’cause I’ll be damned if I have to hear another dumb movie quote again.

The special infected haven’t really changed except for tank (that I notice). Tank looks like a giant hillbilly wearing gawdamn overalls.  But what I like about the new and improved(?) tank is he’s capable of picking your body up and slamming it to the ground. Beautiful.

L4D 2 comes out on November 17th this year (my birthday!).

I played a lot of other games, so much that my wrist started to hurt.  Some games and trailers I played and/ saw at E3 that attracted me the most were Uncharted 2, God of War III, Modern Warfare 2, Mag, Scribble Nauts and a few other games I can’t think of at the top of my head.

Now the important question is…how can I find all the time to play all of this when they come out?

Zombie Walk!

June 1, 2009

I’ve noticed that lately I’ve been on a word vomit writing spree, and as much as I love to talk, and talk…and talk, I think I should give that a rest for today and let the photos (and video) I’m about to post do most of the talking biting.

Last Saturday was Long Beach’s first annual Zombie Walk and “Shaun of the Dead” screening, and I went as a rotting zombie Chinese girl.  Even though my buddies and I were a little bit late for the actual walk, we had such a great time.  The feeling of being in the same area and/room with countless of other zombie fans who are also dressing the “undead” part was quite the delight!

Oh yeah, funny story.  You see that photo of me and the Marvel zombified version of Captain America? I just found out yesterday that we actually know each other online!  But we didn’t recognize each other while the event was in progress. I knew this because he ended up posting a comment on that photo on Flickr that reads, “Hey! That was you???” HA!

I will be ending this entry with a quick video of my friends and I dancing on stage in front of the crowd of cheering zombies.

Note: I was trying to do the zombot (zombie + robot), but the guys had surely beat me with their own gnarly twitching, limping, zomberific dance moves. After the camera stopped recording, the audience was cheering and applauding boisterously, I couldn’t ask for anything better. Acutally, yes, I wish that moment was recorded. =(

Oh well, better than nothing, enjoy!

Tiff’s Fun Filled Weekend. Wee!

April 27, 2009

I had one of the most satisfying weekends ever. Seriously, I’m in such a good mood right now, you can’t kill my buzz. You can’t.

First, I completed my first ever thing on 101 Things, which is to “help out a church.” I know, kind of random of me, but it’s one of the things I really wanted to do just to see if I can break out of my comfort zone. A week ago, I read in a bulletin that one of the churches nearby my house was holding a Hawaii themed fashion show to which I (nervously) volunteered as a model.  The fashion show took place last Saturday and I had a blast.

99% of the audience were women of 55 years and older, and I gotta tell you guys, the only kind of people I actually like showing off to is older ladies, because they can really make you feel like you’re the greatest gift to humanity; anything you do in front of them is quite possibly the most amazing thing they have ever seen in their entire lives. When I was eight I did a half-assed cartwheel in front of grandma once and she nearly had a heart attack, the good kind, since she told me I should’ve tried out for the Olympics as a gymnast. Thanks grandma.

As I was weaving through the tables, strutting my conservative-spring-like-Hawaii outfits for the audience, most of the little ol’ ladies were just in absolute awe.  It was quite flattering and adorable.

Second, I found a really neat museum in Santa Ana.  There were two houses and two separate gardens, and apparently nothing’s been changed since the Victorian era. Their gardens are breathtaking. The first one was rather small, half of it was a rose garden and the other half held rows of orange trees.

The second “garden” was huge that I don’t think it should be even called a garden. It had a lot of little hills which was mostly covered in a field of small sunflowers. As you walk deeper into the hills, there’s an area that looks much like a forest, and what’s amazing about this particular spot is it looked like it was snowing. I don’t know what it was, but the air was laden with either pieces of white bird feathers (there were a lot of plucked bird feathers on the ground it was really creepy) or those little dandelion fluffs.

Unfortunately my camera was not able to capture them, but I did get the sunflower fields:

And last but certainly not least, after the fashion show, Jules and I headed to a Street Fighter tribute art show and tournament called Jab Strong Fierce (thanks to Matt who I didn’t get a chance to see that night lol).

They had a really fun costume play contest. Each character had to introduce themselves to the crowd by demonstrating insane fight moves. One of the Chun-Lis though came out and just stood there and only said, “Hi, I’m Chun-Li and this is my outfit!” and spun around to show the rest of her costume. BOOOOOOO! While the rest of the Chun-Lis, the more thick and curvaceous ones, came out with a boom, they yelled shit like, “HIYA!”, power kicked and power punched the air and showed us what Chun-Li truly looked like. And the two who were tied had to fight it out for second place haha it was great.

Before the tournament you were allowed to play for fun and whatever you were playing was projected to a much bigger screen so that everyone else in the art exhibit could watch. Besides playing the original Street Fighter in first grade I’ve never really played it before, so I was not planning to play at all in front of a live audience, until the guy who lost the last round stood up and suggested that I take the controller. The guy who I was suppose to play against (mind you he’s in the tournament and he’s suppose to be really good) looked at me and pointed to the empty seat that was next to him.

“No..n-n-no,” I tried to put the controller back, “I’ve never played this before.” Jules, from behind, shoved me into the seat and I found myself playing SF for the first time with a SF tournament competitor while the world was watching (at least it felt like it). I told him to go easy on me so we started every round with his health only a quarter full while mine was completely full. I lost once, and wanted to facepalm in real life (photo below).

As for the actual tournament, it was very entertaining and is probably one of the most intense games I had ever witnessed in my 21 years of being on this earth.  I had fun.

I have redeemed myself!

April 15, 2009

Last year, I went to see comedian Steve Bryne.  After that show, he walked pass me and I kind of froze…shoulda patted him on the back…shoulda talked to him but never did and I’ve always regretted it.

This year, yesterday, to be exact, I skipped portfolio class to check out his new material at the Brea Improv.  Man, he really is hilarious, and most importantly, at the end of the show, I manned up and told him that his new material was awesome, took pictures with him and told him that he was tall (yeah, i don’t know, that’s all I could think of at the given moment).

Also, my monster is complete!

I am probably going to make a layout out of it soon, so watch out for that. I kind of need a new layout anyway because I noticed that I tend to blog more often when the layout is fresh. The older my website layout gets, the less I write. Haha, and I don’t know why.

Update: New layout! Hurrah!

I can’t think of a good title for this.

March 7, 2009

If you guys happen to be around Fullerton, Ca I really, really suggest going to a teahouse called Veronese Cafe. Their food and drinks are a bit pricey but the place is so visually striking that you really don’t care what you’re going to buy there as long as it’s good (which it IS).  Picture a backyard with a garden that’s filled with a plethora of vintage junk and weird random knick knacks hanging off the walls, surrounded by couches, chairs, and tables of sorts and you have one great fucking tea house.

My friends and I went there last night.  We ate, we drank, and played Dirty Minds which is a board game I’m not very good at because my mind is usually in the gutter and it can never really get out unless somebody explains it to me.

We also took pictures.  It took us about fifty shots to get one good photo where all of our faces were kept straight and oh so serious (we wanted to imitate those really old creepy photos where no one ever smiles), but even my face in there was a complete joke that Matt thought I was trying to hold in my farts.

On to school, remember that Vietnamese class I was talking about? Well I have a white man sitting next to me, probably in his mid-late forties.  He refers me as “em” which is in Vietnamese, can be used as a term of endearment or correct me if I’m wrong, it can also be used generally for younger people, right? He also told me I was naughty in Vietnamese once.  Yeah, I uh…have no idea where that came from, but I thought that was a little weird.

I also made a new friend in that class, and she’s pretty cool so far.  She can’t see red colors because she’s partially colorblind.  The last time I had class with her, she wore a red long sleeve shirt, so I informed her, “You know you’re wearing green right?” LOLZ.

Dear Pris, thank you for a good time.

January 18, 2009

Yesterday was Pris’s birthday shindig and it was positively one of the best nights I’ve had thus far.

We (about 18 of us) started the night by eating at Elephant Bar. I was sitting in the middle so I got to interact with both sides of the table. One side kept on talking about how incredible “Slumdog Millionaire” was so, of course, they left me no choice but to butt in and say, “Dude, I’m so with you on that. Remember the part where little Jamal raised his arm in the air with the photo of that one Indian actor, screaming at the top of his lungs and he’s like, covered in shit? That was awesome.”

The other side of the table was telling jokes at one point. I’ve been told that I can do a very convincing accent of an annoying Chinese man, so I did say a couple of things to them, in that particular accent, and they got a kick out of it. It reconfirmed that I do, in fact, possess a magnificent gift of impersonating a stereotypical Chinese man.

My friend, Jason, and I shared a large plate of fried shrimps together. The food was good. Not bad, not amazing, but good. As for our waitress, shit, talk about having a stick up her ass. She didn’t like us! It was odd because none of us were being anal or impolite to her. When we asked her for something, her facial expression would change from slightly grumpy to extremely petulant. When I asked for a to-go box she would come back 15 minutes later with nothing in her hands!

Perhaps it is the burden of catering to a large group of 18, but still, she should have at least put on a fake smile or something and not emit her bitchassness towards us.

To make up for her dreadful service and lack of civility, we got her to take some photos of us. Here’s one of them:

group

I’d say that’s a damn good photo. Thank you waitress, you just might be able to redeem yourself…now give me a gawddman to-go box so I can eat my shrimp leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

After dinner we headed towards the Embassy Suites for the hotel party. Since we weren’t able to hook up the Wii to their TV, we decided to play some drinking games. The first was King’s Cup. I’ve played that a few times before, and this one, in particular, was the most entertaining, the most hysterical King’s Cup I had ever played…ever. I wish I can explain what had happen in detail, but it wouldn’t be that funny on paper, it’s more like, ya had to be there type of stuff. But what I will say is that there has never ever been a time where I didn’t pick the 4th King. Never, and that kind of blows for me.

I recorded a great video of Pris getting sprayed by silly strings at the hotel, and also edited it to make it more entertaining. But I’ve been trying to upload it on Youtube for the last several times, and it doesn’t seem to be uploading it. Bleh! What a bitch. I will post the video once I find a solution. For now, enjoy the “teaser stills”.

Update 1-19-09: The video! Hip hip hooray!

2008 REEEECAP!

December 31, 2008

Since 2008 has been by far the best year I’ve ever had, it’s only appropriate for me to discuss the events that has made this year the finest.

The difference between this year and all the other years before that were the people I’ve met. I have met a lot of great people in 2008 and I still keep in touch with them on a normal basis surprisingly. And with their help, I had the opportunity to finally go out and experience life for the first time like a 20-year-old person should.

Before 2008, I did go out on occasions, but it wasn’t enough, and it certainly wasn’t enough to shut my sister up when she reiterated, “You need to get out more” to me nearly every single day. Before 2008, I had about one friend, and I didn’t even like that friend very much. I’ll be honest here and admit that I was a complete douche back then. I had a bizarre fucked up phase where I had very low tolerance for people and I just didn’t care…as a result for my lack of a social life.

By the end of 2007, that only friend told me I was unreliable and heartless, and that I should start thinking about other people’s feelings. So I took her advice by adding it to my new year’s resolution (I actually do follow them) for 2008 after I had gotten rid of her for good (jk =P). Things were different since then.

Back to the point, here are some of the highlights of my 2008, in chronological order:

1. Going to The Renaissance Faire

It almost felt like I was dropped off into a historic period by a time machine when I first walked into the festival. People there are really, really into the Renaissance culture (they don’t call it Renaissance Faire for nothing right?), like, there was a huge parade for Queen Elizabeth I, and when people saw her, sitting elegantly in her extravagant throne carried by six men, everyone was cheering like hell as if she was the actual queen of England. It was sweet! When everyone else is into it and having a blast, it’s hard not to have a good time.

The food there was scrumptious, ridiculously calorific, but scrumptious. And since I’m the person that likes old-fashion looking knick knacks, it was shopping heaven for me. Every booth had something I wanted to buy, and if I could, I would buy the whole fair. What a fun experience. I’m planning to go again in 2009.

2. Meeting long lost cousins

My parents wanted me to go to a relative’s (who I barely know) wedding, and since I had nothing planned, I decided to go. When we arrived, I was seated to a table of people who were all around my age, I connected with most of them, and later found out they were all my distant cousins (my grandpa and their grandma were siblings). It was so weird! But it was so good! We all hung out after the wedding. I still talk to them from time to time.

3. Going to Comic-Con and Video Games Live

Ah, the start of something awesome. I went on a trip to San Diego with a group of people I didn’t know all too well at the time, but we eventually became good friends. There are a lot of great things to point out that happened at Con and VGL (such as meeting my favorite comic book artists, bumping into online friends on accident, buying lots of cool shit, getting lots of cool free shit, etc, etc~!!!), but for the most part, the people I came with totally made the trip worthwhile and I am awfully grateful that we are all still keeping in touch. We are also planning to go to the convention again in 2009.

4. Being in Katy Perry’s “Hot N Cold” music video.

I like Katy Perry, I like her music, and to get a photo with her and make a quick appearance in her latest music video is quite a feat for me. I met two great girls there, and they’ve kept me entertained while we waiting for hours to shoot. To end the night, one of the girls convinced the group of paparazzis to snap photos of us as they waiting for Katy to come out of the chapel.

5. Karaoke, roller skating, pool, and bowling nights

I’ve actually never done any of the four until this year, and now I know why people are so hooked on them. They’re fun! Shit, they are fun. Although, roller skating in a roller rink is a little more hazardous than fun, I don’t know how many bruises I’ve received from hurtling into walls and people, but they were bruises of joy.

6. Painting the “Jawws” mural

I’ve always wanted to paint teeth over my original mural, and since most of my friends were too busy to help paint it, I called one of my former classmates from painting class, Hai, about the project and he was ecstatic to paint it with me. I was more than happy when the teeth were done since I didn’t expect it to look that good! Not only did I get awesome mural out of that experience, but also Hai and I became closer as friends.

7. Going to Six Flags Magic Mountain

It was my first time going to Six Flags and boy did I have a kickass time. The thrills of getting scared shitless as you’re soaring through the sky, then instantly plummeting towards the ground following by a woozy vertical loop is more than I can muster.

8. Scaring people (not kids! grownups) on Halloween

I scared A LOT of people when I was dressed up as a zombified Snow White, and if I didn’t get screams, I got a lot of petrifying stares and side comments such as, “Holy shit look at her.” By the end of Halloween night, I felt like I succeeded…in scaring people.

9. Going to Spike TV’s Video Game Awards

Without Brooke (who I acted with on the last project), I would have never gone and had such a marvelous time. She’s been inviting me to movie premieres, private parties, and awards show, so huge, huge thanks to Brooke; I don’t know how I can ever repay her.

10. Going to a Metallica concert

Matt wanted to invite me to a Metallica concert, only problem was, I don’t listen to Metallica! Being the good sport he is, he sent me a few Metallica songs that might be playing at the concert, so I can get a feel for their music. Their songs, overall, were ok, some good ones and some…meh. When we were there at the concert, the first song they played totally blew me away, and so did the rest of them. Their music sounds really good live.

I don’t know, maybe it’s a combination of watching Metallica fans go berserk, head banging and throwing their fists in the air; watching a plethora of super lasers discharging out of hovering coffins suspended from the ceiling; and feeling the unremitting pulsation and pounding of their awesomely raucous and intensifying music. Just the energy that I’ve felt at the Metallica concert, compared to all the other concerts I’ve been to, is beyond description, and I’m glad I got the opportunity to experience it for myself. Thank you for a good time Matt, if you’re reading this.

All in all, 2008 has been pretty good to me, and I can only hope it’ll be as good as 2009.

Happy New Years everybody.

Big smiles in Little Tokyo

December 23, 2008

Man, I love my friends.  They’re always a blast to spend time with.  They’re so great that we all hung out for 12 hours yesterday. 12 hours!

At noon we went to Little Tokyo in downtown Los Angeles for Christmas shopping and managed to find a lot of stuff to buy for other people and for each other. I bought myself a, um, I don’t know, I call it a “karate kid bandana thing” because it reminds me of the bandana (which isn’t really a bandana hence “thing”) worn by the karate kid in the film “Karate Kid”…only not. I don’t think I’m really going to wear it, but everyone’s gotta have a karate kid bandana gotdamnit!  I also bought myself a samurai sword letter opener.  It’s so badass. It looks like a samurai sword, but in miniature barbie size.

Before leaving Little Tokyo, we walked over to the restrooms at their indoor mall.  The ladies room was locked, but I heard a lot of shuffling noises in there.  There was an old beat up paper, with bent corners and a brown-yellowish coloring around the borders, posted up on the ladies room door that read:

THIS RESTROOM IS CLOSED FOR CLEANING

PLEASE USE THE RESTROOM ON THE 3RD FLOOR

YOUR MOM’S NOT HERE TO HELP PICK YOU UP. PLEASE HELP

Which was uh, kinda weird.  There was also a small writing in red that was written at the top corner and it said, “Wat?!” Looks like somebody didn’t get it either.

What I think he wanted to say, originally, was, “YOUR MOM’S NOT HERE TO PICK UP AFTER YOU. SO HELP A BROTHER OUT.” Right?

Afterwards, we drove to Cerritos and ate at a Vietnamese pho restaurant.  It was Tyler’s first time eating pho, but he didn’t eat very much of it, so I helped him finish his bowl.  For desert, we had cha (kind of like jello soup), Tyler didn’t want to taste it.  I guess he doesn’t like Vietnamese food very much haha, but everyone else enjoyed their dishes. I ordered spring rolls, they were deliciousouosus!

We went to Borders and we stayed there for a while, mainly in the graphic novels section.  I think they were checking out Anime/Manga stuff, and I was catching up on my Marvels (of course).

After Borders, we got coffee and chilled and chatted.  We all took out our driver’s license just to see the hilarity of our pictures.  We played hangman and it was, surprisingly, fun.  Because of hangman, I did learn a new geographical location, Botsuana. Yup.

We ended the night around midnight, and I left with a satisfied (and more) feeling…and stomach.

Spike TV’s Video Game Awards 2008

December 15, 2008

I just got back home from one of the most kickass experiences in the world that is the Video Game Awards 2008!

Fuck! It was spectacular I don’t know where to begin! The only bad part was just the long, excruciating hours of waiting out in the cold, but it was definitely worth it.

I invited my friend Hai to the awards show, and we took off around noon to Sony Pictures Studio. We ended up getting there pretty early, and so the wait was pretty long…and awfully freezing. We were stuck in a long line in their parking structure for nearly two hours. I forgot to bring a jacket and the air was so cold that my lips were turning purple, every part of my bone trembled, and pretty sure my goosebumps had goosebumps.

Two hours later, our line (there were about five separate long lines) finally started moving first and we were transferred into a large empty warehouse where there was even more waiting. As the minutes started to pass by, more of the people from the previous lines eventually started to come in.

The wait was very long and the weather was still chilly, but during that time, Hai and I met a group who was standing behind us and surely, they were an awesome bunch to interact with. Their names were Leejay, Mike and his girlfriend (I forgot her name!). From time to time, I would turn around and butt in to add in my comments to them every time I overhear something interesting or funny, but eventually the butting in comments turned into an entertaining extended conversation on video games, board games, the brilliant idea of putting donuts in our jackets and discreetly selling them to the audience while they were warm due to our body heat (we were hungry! Hunger causes delirium), how absurdly slow and primitive we are at telling time from a numberless watch, and we talked about a flashy dress a girl, standing next to us, was wearing; it was laden with silver sequence and other silver shiny stuff and we thought it would be cool to point a laser at her dress.

After about a few hours of talking and laughter, we were finally transferred to the actual studio where the awards show took place. In the studio, there were three different sections in the room: the stage, the lounge/sofas surrounding the stage (where the big guns and celebrities are seated), and the behind the lounge were a cluster of transparent chairs for the regular audience. The casting directors did not tell us where to sit so me, Hai, and our new gang of friends took the next best seats in the section for the regular audience. It wasn’t close to the stage, but it was good enough.

It was cool at first. As we were waiting for the show to start, we ate bread sticks that were the size of straws, and ordered drinks for free. But a few minutes later, we noticed that people in our line were starting to get kicked out from their seats, and were replaced by other people. Nerves start to kick in.

A new group of people, who we also made friends with, sat next to us and told us how they were initially kicked out because they were sitting in somebody else’s assigned seats. One by one, people are getting kicked out from their seats, and from there on out, I finally realized that we’re seat fillers, and the good seats we’re sitting at the moment are not going to be ours very soon.

Honestly, I was fucking pissed. This meant that we can only sit in the seats that were not purchased (we got in for free, huge HUGE thanks to Brooke for hooking us up). Those seats are probably at a very shitty way-in-the-back spot, and our group will probably be separated from each other had we sat somewhere else.

I wasn’t going to downgrade and settle for a much shittier spot, I wasn’t. So I came up with an idea. A fucking brilliant idea if I might add. It is possibly the best idea I had ever thought of, because everyone else followed, and that idea lead us to the very front of the room that we could literally touch the stage with our own bare hands and probably watch the sweat roll off of Jack Black’s head.

“The pit,” I thought to myself. Remember how I mentioned about the separate lines we had in the parking structure? Well one of those lines was a “special” line, or a line we’d like to call, “The Beautiful People”, because that particular line were composed of theoretically good looking people who were handpicked by the casting directors to stand at the pit whenever a music artist or a band performs on stage.

I guess we were not beautiful enough to have made it to said line, but after getting kicked out from our original seats, I told Hai and LeeJay that we should join “The Beautiful People” up in the very front and “if they kick us out of there too, then oh well, we tried.” Having said that, I casually walked toward the stage, passed the maze of the lounge, and to the pit, followed by seven other people, and no one seems to notice.

“Look beautiful guys,” said Leejay. Laughter ensues. We made it!

We were only at the front of the stage, or the pit, whenever there was a performance. And when there wasn’t, we were all moved by the casting directors to the side of the room, which wasn’t bad at all.

When the show started, we were first shown a hilarious introduction video of Jack Black (the host) having a hot and steamy “threesome” with a PS3 and an Xbox, only to get caught by his wife, the Wii, along with his son, the Nintendo DS. The sex was actually rather gross (and funny) because it was pretty convincing.  He was caressing them, taking out PS3’s wire and inserting into the Xbox, and then boning them in the end…yes boning.

We watched LL Cool J, The All American Rejects, 50 Cent and his G-unit crew, and Weezer perform, all within meter stick distance. Ah, I couldn’t ask for a better place to sneak to.

Other celebrities I saw and had me in uber starstruck were Megan Fox (I called her name and she waved at me, OMG!), Kiefer Sutherland (photo above, see we were THAT close to the stage!!!!), Mike Tyson, Kristin Kreuk, Eliza Dushku, Doogie Howser, Chris Evans, Marisa Miller, Ben Stiller’s dad, and other celebrities I can’t think of at the top of my head.

It was a very good night. I met six other people there who are seriously awesome in my book. I got to be in a room with people who all have one thing in common: our love for videogames. People saw us on TV.  I got the best seats in the house. And to top it all off, Left 4 Dead won Best PC Game and Best Multiplayer Game. It’s definitely a great way to end the year with. I couldn’t ask for a better night.

PS- Cameras and phones were not allowed, so I was not able to take any pictures during the show. Hmph! So I managed to get a few pictures before the event (photo at the top), and after…which isn’t that exciting since none of it was DURING the show.
