I suppose I shouldn’t complain about being busy.<\/p>\n

…but I’m frickin’ busy all the time!<\/em><\/p>\n

Seems like I have a lot to do, and am doing a lot, that’s all I’m saying.<\/p>\n

It’s not all bad. Yesterday was kind of a kick in the pants, as we’re now about exactly one month away from this year’s 4th of July worldOne festival. By this time last year, I already had a good draft, if not a finished draft, of that year’s festival promo.<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

That thing was a piece of work. Mostly because of revisions from interested parties. It is what it is, though. I think it turned out pretty good.<\/p>\n

But anyway, this year, I’ve been working. I haven’t had time to do my usual thing, and I haven’t even had time to realize that I’m already this late on it! No matter though, I’m not the only one. I should hopefully have something to post soon.<\/p>\n

Oh by the way, just ’cause I’m lagging does not mean that the festival wont be excellent as always. Come check it out. More info at www.worldOneradio.org<\/p>\n

Despite the million things I still have to do, I did get to have some fun yesterday. After the worldOne volunteer meeting, I made it to San Francisco to watch Moonrise Kingdom<\/em> with my parents, and two of their friends. Now there’s another movie I need to review…But in short it was wonderful. Just the movie I wanted to see. If anyone wants to go, I’ll gladly watch it again when it opens wider in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

After the movie, I was surprised to learn that my dad had never been to Japantown in his life. I find it hard to believe that he’s never been to Japantown in the 40 years he’s lived here. Well anyway, he got to experience a small taste of it.<\/p>\n

As we crossed the bridge in Japantown from one building to the other, it smelled of cleaning products. My dad’s friend Al, who came with us, pointed out that “you don’t want to eat anywhere you can smell cleaning products.” He said this right as we passed one of my least favorite restaurants in the world. A place called “On The Bridge<\/a>.” Sure, they look friendly with their little diner on the bridge over Webster street, and it’s inviting to otaku with the wall scrolls and anime, but the food is fucking disgusting.<\/p>\n

\"Egg<\/a>
What the fuck is this shit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Even if that tastes amazing, I would never be able to get past the sloppy mess that exists on that plate. I’ve noticed a lot of Asian food is like that. Just throw a mess of shit in a bowl, boil it, and shovel it in your mouth making as much noise as you can. Not what I consider appetizing.<\/p>\n

It’s like they just love to take something that’s good and ruin it by piling shit on it.<\/p>\n

Anyways, after eating SOMEWHERE ELSE, we went to Great American Music Hall for Ernest Ranglin<\/a>‘s 80th birthday. I was not looking forward to this, I’m not too fond of the venue. The chairs are uncomfortable, the food is over priced, and the sight lines are terrible. Somehow, we got a decent spot to watch the stage from, but nothing could be done about the chairs. I was highly entertained by the music, though, particularly the supporting band Vinyl<\/a>. The jazz\/funk\/afrobeat\/reggae\/ska mix with very few lyrics was exactly the type of music I like. It’s just a shame the audience had to go and ruin it. People didn’t know when to stop talking. There was a lot of smoking as well.<\/p>\n

But the good far outweighed the bad.<\/p>\n

I probably had more to say, but it’s almost 1 and I gotta be up and at them in about 5 hours. So goodnight everybody.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
