TalkAsia Editions You Might’ve Missed

Written by Amy on Wednesday, October 8th, 2008 ( 2 responses ) | Share/Save

I know, my sucky last post that begun as a notification of less buying, turned into reporting that Anna Tsuchiya will (or was) on this week’s TalkAsia. If my calculations were correct, it aired today at 8AM, when I wasn’t really up yet… so I’ll be catching it tomorrow at 8PM instead.

If I don’t get to catch it, I will try to see it online… just like I miss Jay Chou, I thought maybe some of you were looking for some missed editions… so I’m posting the TalkAsia with Jay Chou, Bi (Rain) and Lee-Hom Wang that I found…

Beijing Olympics - Closing 2008

Written by Amy on Sunday, August 24th, 2008 ( One response ) | Share/Save

OMG, are you watching?? I can hear millions of Asian girls swooning~~~ Wang Lee-Hom and Bi singing Beijing Beijing Wo Ai Beijing!!!! Poor Kelly Chen… who? Where was Guan Zhe, though??

Wo Ai Beijing - Lee Hom Wang and Bi Rain

American-Chinese musician Wang Lee-Hom, and Korean musician Bi (Rain) perform together Beijing Beijing Wo Ai Beijing in the Closing Ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics

Are you waiting for London? Eh, No~ What the heck was that, London? That looked more like a Superbowl half-time entertainment than an Olympic closing performance. We all love some Beckham… and some people love themselves some Leona Lewis and then some Led Zeppelin… but that was just so anticlimactic.

Anyway, going back. Closing ceremony was not as HOLY-CRAP-CAN’T-BELIEVE-THAT-I’M-SEEING-THIS, but it was pretty good. LOL’ I am still swooning over Wang Lee-Hom and Bi together….

I think one of my favorite parts was when the performers made the Olympic logo, because I’m so-oh-in-love with Dancing Beijing… unlike the ‘unnamed’??? 2012 London Logo. While watching the whole London Olympic sequence, I couldn’t help but think about school Motion Graphics. Yes, sure… aim at young people, but don’t alienate the older viewers. My mother sure didn’t appreciate that~~

Dancing Beijing - Memory Tower

Performers make the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics logo, Dancing Beijing, on the Memory Tower.

Moving on… again! Placido Domingo made an apperance! He sang alongside Song Zuying (which the dude on TV made sound like ‘Son Su Jin,’ which made me think she was Korean).

Hmm… will look for photos. Photos are everything… or at least a video clip. Did you swoon? Lee-Hom Wang and Bi deserve my swooning~~~ I hope you swooned!! xD

**EDIT** 8.54pm - Found some photos!

Funniest Offensive Thing Ever!

Written by Amy on Wednesday, May 14th, 2008 ( 3 responses ) | Share/Save

Just read Lainey’s Gossip. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. You all must read it!

People can’t tell Asians apart.

Believe it or not, we Asians don’t all have grandmas called Mrs Wong.

Funny. But I did! I never met my Grandma Wong, but I did have one. LOL’

Talk to Asians, and they will tell you all black people look the same… or white people. The funniest thing, Bi (Rain), the biggest star in Korea… almost topping the TIME poll of Most Influentials, and People messes it up.

There are people that meet my mom and my aunt, thinking they look exactly the same, when in reality they don’t even seem related. On the other hand, when we went to China, no one related them. My mom looks more like she’d be Malaysian, or Thai… or Vietnamese. My aunt, she looks like Yoko Ono. Word. She looks so much like Yoko that even a group of Japanese tourists asked her if she was… and we were on our way to Helsinki from Stockholm. She looks that much like her.

The 2008 TIME 100

Written by Amy on Sunday, April 6th, 2008 ( 2 responses ) | Share/Save

TIME Magazine, or better said… TIME’s website is holding a vote for the 100 Most Influential people of 2008, I’m guessing. There’s a broad spectrum of professions, races, nationalities, etc… but come on, seriously?

I like Bi (Rain) and all, I thought he was quite good on Park Chan-Wook’s film, and I’m actually giddy that he’s on the new Speed Racer film. He dances pretty great… and oh Sang Doo, he went to school! LOL’ However, it baffles me that he’s in the #1 spot when probably 75% of people in America and Occident haven’t the faintest idea who he is.

Don’t get me started on #2, LOL. If Chicken Fried should be included, it should be Kentucky Friend Chicken. I mean, I liked Britney and all back in ‘99, and I’m still hoping she gets her crap together, but #2??? Seriously? What does that say about us, people??

And #3? Oh my God! J.K. Rowling has been pushed from her thrown by Stephenie Meyer, author of The Twilight Series. A pseudo-fantasy book that is as good as some fanfiction story written for 13-year-old girls who dream and giggle about crushing hard on a good vampire. LOL’ - I mean, really… Influential? Maybe… but the #3 spot?

So this is how the list should be shifted around:
