My flight to LA = booked!

Luckily, my next business trip to West is confirmed in the same week of the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival! I got an approval from my boss for taking the Friday off, so I can spend two nights in LA! I got a coupon to stay 2 nights free in a hotel in LA, too. So, I just need to pay for my rend-a-car to enjoy my time in LA~~~

It's been more than 10 years since I last visited LA. Back then, I did not know about this fabulous actor.

The only negative about this trip plan is that I'll be all alone. But I still go to Saketini for my dinner! What else should I do while in LA besides dining at Saketini and watching Sunset Stories? Three more weeks to think about it.

Happy Birthday!

I know I'm several hours ahead, but I have to be the first one to say "Happy Birthday" to Sung! I bought something for him, and failed to send it out earlier... it's still here with me. But I will send it out shortly like this coming Monday. Should I send it to the management office as mentioned in his official Facebook page? Or should I try his restaurant? According to Yelp, I see that Saketini continues to be a popular restaurant. But I'm not 100% if he has sold the business to someone else by now... I just found the link to the website I made a while ago is not longer working.

To be safe, I should probably try the management office address. Hope he gets this soon and recognize the gift as a reminder about who I am. :)

Check out his latest interview! I love hearing what he has to say.

And it's great to know that the movie postponed from April, "Bullet to the Head," is now scheduled for November release! :)

Intro of UNDOING


I just found someone posted this. "Like!'

By the way, I keep debating inside myself if I should revise or delete what I wrote about Sung's Korean speaking ability. I know it was not nice. I may have hurt him. But how he spoke could be very controversial. I know he loves his mom and his grand-father. And I'm not even a Korean. But as a first generation immigrant from an Asian country, what he said reminded me an attitude from an Asian Americans I met a long time ago. What they did to us, international students with broken English, was they built a very high and thick wall between us. They do not really want themselves considered as part of us though we look alike. We are so uncool for them because we don't speak English natively and do not have "Americanized" attitudes and minds.

Well, it's been a while, and I may have improved my English speaking ability and got used to with living in the states since then. But I still do not act like an American. I probably never will and there is simply no reason for me to even giving it a shot.

That cannot be an excuse for me to curse Sung's Korean speaking ability. Actually, I never want to curse any part of him. He does not deserve that. But hope he understands what I mean here. He still has my full support and love.

I suppose anything can be controversial. We don't have to overreact to it. We sometime need to choose a side. And given the fact that the speech was made for a party held by Koream society, what he said was completely appropriate there. I guess I just felt I am left out not because I cannot be one of Koreams, but because I realized that Sung is a part of the group who used to build a wall against me before I started speaking English comfortably.

*revised*


Well, let me revise what I wrote because I feel I was so mean. My hubby said I shouldn't post this kind of thing. Nobody else got in touch with me about this article, but I agreed with my hubby's assessment. So, let me just keep the video here, but my original comment removed!
