While everyone’s in Vegas for Magic, I’ll be at school taking exams. Boo.

If you’re in Vegas stop by Adapt’s party @ TABU Ultra Lounge in the MGM Grand Monday night!

Pregos.

Okay, I don’t have cable so I haven’t been able to watch the news or anything, but I was at my parents house this morning and picked up the newspaper and started reading. I came across the article of the lady that had optuplets and is unemployed. Did I mention she already has 6 kids and supports them on food stamps?! She also gets disability payments for three of her children. Because the octuplets were born prematurely they have to stay in the hospital. In the article they were saying that the hospital had requested a reimbursement from Medi-Cal.

“…the average cost for a premature baby’s hospital stay in California was $164,273, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Eight times that equals $1.3 million.”

And where is all this money coming from? California taxpayers. People aren’t too happy about this.

Read more here at SFGate.com. The article’s pretty interesting.

Speaking of pregnant ladies, M.I.A is a sav for performing at the Grammy’s the day her baby was due. But if her water broke on stage, that would’ve been GROSS.

In case you missed it…

“25 Things”

Posted in Uncategorized by krisyee on February 6, 2009
I swear this is going around Facebook like CRAZY…and I keep getting tagged in it! It’s like a chain letter! You write 25 random things about yourself and then you have to tag or send it to 25 other people. Then of course, they have to repeat it. Looks like Times Magazine caught onto it too.
Read the article. It’s hilarious.

Volunteers Anyone?

Posted in Uncategorized by krisyee on February 6, 2009
The 27th Asian American Film Festival is coming around the corner and they’re looking for volunteers! I did it with my sister last year and it was pretty fun. I got to see a couple of documentaries for free and also received 2 voucher tickets for any movie I wanted to check out. They even had Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay! If you haven’t seen my entry about the documentary I saw you can see it here.

Here’s a picture from last year. The line was wrapped around the corner.

Snow Part Deux

Posted in Uncategorized by krisyee on February 5, 2009
Last weekend I headed up to Reno with some of my friends. On Saturday we went up to Mt. Rose to get some boarding in. I think this is the first trip I went on where we had about 20 people and EVERYONE went boarding or skiing. It was pretty awesome.

Some of the crew. A few others were off on their own.Augs & I

There was a dude wearing a chili costume…next to a dude wearing a sports coat. Later in the day we saw a guy wearing a full suit. Haha


I had a cramp and was trying to stretch it out…Darrell decided to make fun of me!

So my board is treating me well. I probably could’ve gotten a 149 or 148 board. Maybe after a couple seasons I’ll go for a park board. My friend Adrianne said she has the Nike snowboarding boots and that they’re super comfortable. I may have to check those out.

These came out September last year…
…and these Oct last year.

Tilt Shift

Posted in Uncategorized by krisyee on January 29, 2009
I was on Twitter (the new hype, get on it! haha) and was looking at who was following me and I came across this guy named Michael Perry, a video blogger on Vimeo from San Francisco. On one of his blogs he showed a photo that was created with a tilt shift technique. It basically makes images look miniturized due to the shallow depth of the photo. He mentioned Tiltshiftmaker.com where you can upload a picture and create a tilt shift image. So of course I had to mess with it. It may be the “easy” way, but why not?! It’s for fun!

My photos aren’t the greatest, but check these out on Flickr.com. Or just Google “tilt shift” and look at some images. Haha

Coraline

Posted in Uncategorized by krisyee on January 27, 2009
I’ve noticed there’s a bit of a hype for this movie Coraline and I think I can see why. The movie is based on a book written by Neil Gaiman which sold over one million copies in 2002. From the director of Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas, Henry Selick brings Coraline to life. It has that Nightmare Before Christmas vibe but I think it’s going to be a good movie. The movie comes out in theaters Feb 6th. If you haven’t seen the trailer yet check it out.

One other thing…

Nike created a pair of dunks for the movie. If you watch the movie the day it comes out, there will be a secret password at the end of credits for you to enter to win them.


DOPE.
