Current Video On My Mind:

Okay I’m sorry but I watched this shit like 329374824 times and i CRACK the eff up every time.  This lady is hilarious…part of the reason being that I think she’s trying to do an actual serious makeup tutorial haha.  But you know this is legit stuff because Michelle Phan commented and even favourited it (and i LOVE Michelle Phan yay!).  Yeah, eff fancy vibrating mascaras (eg, Maybelline)  just vibrate your own damn head ok.

Current Picture On My Mind:

I saw this on PG’s page HAHA and thank you this is hilarious and so true.
Which leads me to the…

Current Movie On My Mind:

“Better than Chocolate!”  I was having a Lesbian movie marathon yesterday and busted out the “Saving Face,” “Better than Chocolate,” and a new amazing discovery–”I Can’t Think Straight!”  I just LOVE lesbian movies because (some) most of them tackle gender, sex, and sexuality taboos.  I love movies that bend your mind, and unusual couplings/scenarios that would usually never surface into our mainstream media.  YAY INDIE FILMS.  YAY (some) GLBT FILMS.  I think “Saving Face” is still my all-time favorite though–the funny parts are HILARIOUS and the sad parts are SO SAD.  You’re crying one minute and laughing hysterically the next–definitely a sign of a great movie (=

And to end this,

I just made fried rice for the first time in my LIFE today.  FROM SCRATCH.  Yes, I know I am an almost-21-year-old Chinese American but KEYWORD American and thus I don’t cook.

No seriously though, I made the rice and then fried the rice, and put everything into the fried rice MYSELF!!  I am so proud (= *waits for applause*

Okay well, you don’t want to know what’s in there, but it’s basically anything and everything I could find in my fridge–but hey, that’s kind of what fried rice/bibimbap style food is, right?  You just take whatever shit you can find in the fridge and mix it with rice and sauce and its good (=

So i have (kind of hard/undercooked) rice, canned crab, salt, olive oil, stir fry oil, lao gan ma chili sauce, eggs, chickpeas (from yesterday’s hummus bros takeout), and broken bits of fried dumplings (i tried to fry frozen dumplings but they came out in a wad and got all broken up when i tried to break it apart so i just threw it into the fried rice too…)…..woo.

And guess what?

It is so good.

*proud*
