Quest Crew!

Jess and I had an awesome GG Adventure this Saturday! First we had a great lunch at Bangkok Square. Mangoes are in season so I got some mango sticky rice, which I'm totally excited about lol. And then, on a sort-of whim, I convinced Jess to go with me to Monsters of Hip-Hop/Contemporary Convention at the Hyatt Regency in Orlando. Needless to say I got lost, the freaking airport is like a maze and it took me 3 1/2 tries to figure out that I just had to park at the airport because the Hyatt is inside the airport. I feel like an idiot but that's alright because I got to see Quest Crew! They performed two sets; a compilation of some of their work from America's Best Dance Crew and some new bboy stuff. It was pretty cool to see live, not gonna lie. We waited afterwards to get some photos (I'm a little dense and didn't think to bring a camera so the pics were suuuuper blurry cause I had to take it with my camera phone haha). Anyhow, it was still great to see them and great to hang out with my GG. Afterwards we went to a friend's house party to celebrate their fraternity getting chapter status (congrats Phi Chapter of the Pi Delta Psi Fraternity, Inc.). All in all, an awesome weekend.

This whole week we're filming our video for APAC Assembly. My little asked if I'd like to lend my voice for some parts and it was pretty cool to use real equipment to record. It's gonna be a great show, I can feel it lol. The speaker/guest performer is still undecided but we're hoping it's someone who can deliver. We've had a few memorable guests at our APAC events: Beau Sia, Passion, Asia. Here's hoping this year we can top that! Maybe with a member from the Quest Crew?!?!? I don't know, it's always good to dream big. :)

On a side note, somehow amongst all the excitement, I've been dubbed the woman that can make dreams come true. Let's hope it sticks (and most of all, let's hope it's true).

So Fluffy!

Saw Despicable Me last night and it was so much fun! I think almost everyone fell in love with Margo, Edith, and Agnes; and I have a new found love of unicorns lol.

The movie was pretty awesome but the theater was jam-packed with viewers young and old. It's always awkward when you're sitting near the "crying baby" or the "talks-to-much little kid." The little girl in front of us just started crying nonstop and it was unbearable. The worst part was when the other movie goers started booing their parents and demanded that they leave the theater. We felt so bad for them, and incredibly embarrassed, but there is a fine line that can be crossed when it comes to bringing small children to movies. Then again, this movie was made for small children but how small is too small? Or young rather. Toddlers and infants can't understand a movie so why bring them, but then you have another child that wants to go to the movies with mom and dad and they can't find a sitter, bam! you're at the movies with your 5-year-old son/daughter and your 13-month-old screaming child because you want to be that mom and/or dad that can do it all. I wish we can cut all parents a little slack when we're watching family films, after all it is for the family. But I also wish parents can be more considerate of their children as well, movies are loud and a nuisance to babies, so take turns taking your kids to the movies. It's all about self-sacrifice, raising children, or so I've been told. Now for those crazy parents that are into scary-slasher-blood-n-gore-creeper movies that are just dying for a good scare, keep your children at home. Not only will everyone hate you for bringing your kids to an R-rated movie, most people will probably think you're clinically insane and are probably inadvertently subjecting your kids to some type of childhood trauma which will lead to anti-socialism and anxiety; I'm just saying.

All in all, a pretty good weekend, glad we ended it with a good movie. :)
