This week's specially hilarious video was brought to you by... Tunak tunak tun... Notice the elaborate hand gestures:

Pre-Wedding wonderfulness

So, I've been busy building a website for my wedding. It's pretty fun to do, and it will have all kinds of details, stories, photos, slideshows, and contact information.

It will also have a guestbook, so I EXPECT you all to sign it. All two of you, who actually come to this site.

I'll let you know what the address is, but you can probably guess what the domain name is now...

SPECIAL BULLETIN: Need a Room-mate?

This is not a test of the emergency broadcast system:

No... this isn't for me. I'll have a permanent roommate from May 27th of next year. A friend of mine is looking to move into Burnaby, East Van area... and he needs a roommate. He's really clean and wants to move closer to work and to a congregation with good spirituality. So... if you wanna move closer to the city... let me know, and I'll pass on the word. Also, pass the word around your friends. You never know who wants to move...

Cheers!

Extremely Shy, you say?

This is an INSANE movie. First, you have to know that most Japanese people think Dakota (I can't remember her last name) is insanely cute. Okay, most people in general do, but with the blond hair and blue eyes... they just dote over her.... By the way, kawaii (pronounced like Hawaii with a "k" means "So cute!!" , and can be heard by small effeminate women, and large roly-poly sumo wrestlers. Enjoy:

Cool Illusion

Okay, it's not perfect, but this is my desk space and about 5 minutes of my time on the Friday before the holidays began. I got the idea off a website somewhere... though, if I spent some time and dimmed the monitor a bit, or didn't have such a shadow in the background... then it would look better.

Gives a whole new definition to "windows" 

Hands in my pocket...

I have had that REALLY stupid advertising jingle, "Hands in my pocket" from the Capital One Mastercard commercial.

HANDS in my pocket, Hands IN my pocket, HANDS, in my Pocket...

Arghhhh!!!! Please, make the jingle stop!!! How are they able to put these stupid things into my head.

Anyone else have annoying jingles they hate?

Five Second Rule

before, you watch this short clip... remember, it's only a movie... it's not real... he didn't really eat that chip! Anyway... anyone use the 5 second rule, here? Comments? Feel free to weigh in your opinion... ^_^

Oreos and Twinkies

No, I'm not going to talk about sweet treats and yummy foods. But rather, I'm going to talk about categorizing people. If you're anywhere near Vancouver, you've heard of the term twinkie... or "banana" referring to asians who were raised in a western environment... probably eat non-asian food and likely are more western than eastern. They're often affectionately named: "twinkie." The reasons are obvious, I think... and if you really can't figure out why then email me and I'll enlighten you.

You might not have heard of "egg" referring to someone who's white outside, but knows more about Asia than Asians.

And just MAYBE you're heard of the term "oreo" which if you're following the pattern, is easy to figure out.

But there's no food group representing the jigga's and chigga's and wigga's. You know, people trying to be black... or getting all involved in black culture... dressin' up, and talking in ebonics etc.

I mean, in the end... i think it's stupid to label people as such... based on their skin colour... although it can be funny with the right people... as people are really a product of their environment. If I spent enough time in Japan, I would probably become very Japanese... my parents have been here longer than UK, and though there's this notion that UK is still home... in reality, "home" has changed so much that really... home is here in Canada.

I guess, though, it's different to different people.

Funny Japanese English Lessons...

When I was in Japan... there were tonnes of these 5 minute shows on TV. Some of them were hilarious... all to teach English... with ultimate hilarity.

Scrumpt-diddly-umptious

This cake is simply a work of art. And it was very tasty. We had a dinner at work. One of our suppliers takes our department out once a year... so we can pretty much order whatever we want.

The Scotch was great, the Steak was Salivacious, and the dessert was divine. Nothing much else to say right now... i need to do another rant or two... like the McDonald's rant.

Maybe I should do a poll on people's favorite dessert... although the cappuccino cheesecake may biased some, now.
