I came across this site (mymomisafob.com) from my friend's facebook page... it's so freakin hilarious...

My mom recently learned “The Itsy Bitsy Spider” to sing to my son.

“Tha itchy bitchy spider went up water spout…”

So my mom is a VERY protective mother. This is what happened after she watched a 60 minutes special on Online Predators. I’m watching a Video Blog on Youtube…

Mom: Who is that guy?
Me: I don’t know
Mom: Why is he talking to you??
Me: It’s a video…
Mom (at the computer): GO AWAY, MY DAUGHTER DON’T WANT TO MEET UP AND TALK TO YOU

Hehehee some of the comments for the last one were pretty hilarious:

My parents intended to name me Irene after the beautiful Miss Venezuela who ran against Mr. Chavez the year I was born...I ended up with Yrene

My friend was supposed to be Suzanne, but she was named Sujan. :O)

My parents had always loved the name Jacob.
Now I get funny looks from people when they read my name (Jakub Tsao)


My friend was supposed to be named Alexander. His name is Alexanda.


Well my name is Karren Wong .... P_P people always ask about the extra R ....lol

Mom calls me asking what I want from In-N-Out Burgers.

Me: Can you get me the animal style fries?

thirty minutes later, mom comes home…

Mom: I asked for the doggy-style fries, but I think they ran out because they just started laughing.

I can relate to most of these. hahaha. In fact, I have my own fobby story about my name...

One day I asked my mom how she decided on naming me Sandy. She said, oh! I named you after that cute little girl from the Brady Bunch... the youngest girl with blonde pigtails.

me: ummm, mom... that's CINDY Brady!!! hahaha

at least I was lucky enough to still end up with a real name

hehehe

=)

Gonna be a city girl...

ok.

I was originally planning on writing a blog about moving on to the next chapter in my life... and it basically became a HUGE novel. So, I guess I'm going to have to hold off on that blog for now until I have the time to break it down into chapters, or short stories, or categories... and then I'm going to have to decide how I want to roll them out.

So yes, knowing me -- it will take a while for me to get around to it because nowadays sharing my life story (online) has apparently moved down on my priority list in life...

Anyhow, in the meantime, I just wanted to share some cool before and after pix of my aunt's place in SF (a.k.a. our new pad in the city). She's the best for letting us stay there! It's a 2bd/2bath.. but we've only got around to fixing up 1bdr, living room, and bath so far. I'm trying to make a case for making the 2nd bedroom my walk in closet ;P we'll see how that goes.


oh yeah, there's me in my plastic gloves and sweats... probably smelling like clorox bleach



guess who's responsible for the decor? =)



that's me vacuuming all the crap off the walls before we started painting. This, btw, was probably the worst part for me because I had to come face to face with a crapload of spiders.. and anyone who has lived with me knows how I feel about spiders... eeeek!



our living room. =) yay. I've got my flatscreen tv with cable ... could I ask for anything more? hah

FYI - I'll be living in the city starting next week, as I am starting my new job in SOMA as a Product Manager at Modcloth.com! I'm sooo incredibly excited about working for this company not only because it's the perfect combination of e-commerce, social media, and fashion (3 things I <3) ... but what really sold me on this job was the people, their energy, and the company culture.

Let's hope I don't blow my paycheck on the awesome employee discount. hehe...

Meeting the 'dead' Dr. Christian Shephard from LOST [semi-SPOILER-alert]

Yesterday, I was cast play a medical intern on Trauma, and was pleasantly surprised to see John Terry on set! At first, it was like I saw a ghost! I'm a HUGE Lost fan, so I kind of wanted to rush up to him and ask him to tell me EVERYTHING... ahaha, as if he would.... but, I played it cool and just stared from afar. lol.

Later in the day, I was lucky enough to get picked to be in a scene with him, so we got to chat a little bit. He was, btw, extremely friendly, funny... and super talented. =)



For those of you who don't know, John Terry plays Dr. Christian Shephard (a.k.a. Jack's dead dad) on Lost. There has been so much speculation over how things will pan out on the FINAL season of LOST -- and he is in the center of a LOT of theories.



His character, Christian Shephard, is an extremely interesting character on the show because although he was dead from episode ONE, it was later revealed in flashbacks that so many characters have had connections with him, on and off the island. As a recap, here's what we know:

-Dr. Christian Shephard was originally know as Jack's father.
-Later we found out he was also Claire's father, and he was in Australia to visit her for the last time.
-We also found out that Ana Lucia traveled to Australia with Jack's father
-Christian Shephard hit Saywer with the door of the car when he opened it in front of the bar where they later share drinks.
-On the island, Christian Shephard's coffin was found unlocked and empty, which raised questions about his death and whether or not he is still alive.
-He then, mysteriously appeared alive on the island to various characters (Jack, Hurley, Claire, Locke, Miles, Micahel, Sun, Vincent, and Frank) at different times
- He has referred to himself on the Island as being capable to speak on Jacob's behalf.

The final season kicked off focusing on Jacob and his brother (a parallel to the classic Bible story of Jacob and Esau). It has become clear that Esau brought John Locke's dead body to the island so he could use his body and impersonate John Locke to convince Ben to kill Jacob.

This makes me assume Jacob had been using Christian Shephard's body, which explains Christian's appearances on the island. But why was Christian Shephard's body missing from his coffin? It seems that Esau was able to assume John Locke's image while leaving the body in the coffin.

So is Christian Shephard really dead?

Well, when I met John Terry, I told him I felt like I was looking at a ghost, and he responded by saying, "oh, but you know Christian Shephard is not really dead..." I said, "REALLY!??!" in shock.. and then he said "just kidding, I have no idea." ... so now I'm left in confusion.

Will John Terry be in this final season of Lost?

He says he hasn't heard anything from casting yet, and they are finishing up filming within the next month or so. This seems quite weird to me -- I would assume he would need to be in this season to help answer questions about his character.

So here's my two requests to the Lost writers --
1) Please don't leave questions unanswered!
2) Bring John Terry back, he's awesome (that one's for you John!), and we want to know more about how his character fits in with everything!

hmmm... or maybe they should extend the show even more, and have a FINAL FINAL season. haha =)
