I found this while surfing around. It's an interview with Harry Shum, Jr. who plays Mike Chang on the show. It's a little fluffy and could use some polish but I appreciated learning more about the actor.

Enjoy.

Harry Shum is full of Glee

Hi everyone. My name's April and I'm 26 years old. I live in KY with my fiance, Boo. I'm been a member of livejournal going on 6 years and I'd thought this year I'd post my wish list. (:

2.) More livejournal friends.
3.) Anything Hello Kitty.
4.) Icons of me or of me & Boo, and I love it when the icons are animated.
5.) Blinkies, especially couple related, girlie stuff, dolls and faeries.
6.) More user pics add-on or more paid time for my livejournal.
7.) Horror movie DVDs (new or used).
8.) Scrapbook related stuff, especially stuff having to do with love and relationships.
9.) Horror books or young adult fiction novels (new or used).
10.) A magazine subscription to Cosmo or something like that.

Here's my address:

Hello! My name is Maureen. I'm a 23-year-old Psychology major at the University of Missouri. I live with one roommate and three cats and work at my university's library. When I'm not working, I like to read, write, watch anime, and play video games. I'm very excited about this community. ^_^ Here's my list:


1: Anything Japanese. I love Japan! Anything from Japan or that has to do with Japanese culture would be great. I like candy, keychains, maneki nekos, figurines, dishes, chopsticks -- pretty much anything.
2: Jewelry. I really want some cute barrettes to wear in my hair, but I also love rings and necklaces. Mood rings and cameo necklaces in particular.
3: Cat toys. One of my cats is a kitten and the big cats are not always in the mood to play with her, so I would really love some cool cat toys to keep her entertained. She is quite the bundle of energy.
4: Harry Potter merchandise. Ties and scarves, specifically, but I am in love with all things HP. I have an adorable Snape figurine that lives on top of my television. I also love a good chocolate frog. ^_^
5: Wall art. My walls are sad and empty and there's nothing I love more than pretty pictures, frames, and clocks to hang on them. Or anything that hangs, really. I just want my walls to look cute.
6: Plushies. Any character from video game or anime would be fantastic. I especially love the Final Fantasy series, Kingdom Hearts, Fullmetal Alchemist, Bleach, Fruits Basket, and Fushigi Yuugi, to name a few. I'm familiar with most anime, though, so if it's popular enough to warrant a plushie, I will probably know it/love it.
7: Anime. Whatever your favorite is! I watch a lot of anime but don't own much so I would love to watch your recommendations.
8: Gravitation Vol. 12. I have volumes 1-11 but am sadly lacking in the last book of this manga. It's one of my favorite anime/manga series everrr so I would love to have the final volume.
9: Gay fiction. Something you've written yourself, links to recs online, ebooks, or actual novels. I love them all, as long as there are gay men involved.
10: Surprise me!

Before I quit my job at an erotic boutique specializing in dildos, vibrators, porn and lingerie, I had a wtf encounter at the bus stop.

I was heading home after my shift ( I worked 10-4:30pm). I have to wait for the girl coming on to count the till before I can go and I was rushing b/c I wanted to catch the 4:30 bus so I didn't have to wait until 5.

As soon as she's done counting, I rush out the door and head towards the bus stop. I'm at the bus stop less than 5 mins before a short, stocky indian guy approaches.

He stands there a moment or two and I can tell from his body language that he's getting ready to ask me something. The conversation goes down like this:

Short Indian Guy (SIG) and Me

SIG:"This bus goes to the subway station, right?"
Me:"Yes."
SIG"So..you shop there often? The adult shop?"
Me:"No. I work there actually."
SIG:"Oooh! So you know the other girl that works there."*chuckles to self*
"It's expensive in there."
Me:"Not really."
SIG:"So, what do you do in your spare time?"
Me:"Stuff."
SIG:"You ever use any of the stuff from that store?"
Me:"No."
*Bus shows up and gets close*
SIG:"So...you want to be friends?"
Me:*raises eyebrows* "Noooo....." *Turns back on him and waits for bus to pull up*

He doesn't even get on the bus!! He just walks away.
I think he followed me out of the shop to the bus stop but I was in such a hurry to catch the bus, I didn't notice..

Apparently he's a "regular".
LOL!

Okay guys so I finally have started looking into Persona

Like a few days ago I started reading a Let's Play for Persona 2 Eternal Punishment, it's decent interesting and Katsuya is the sort of BAMF I could see myself RPing some day in the future.

And today a friend brought over her playstation and her Persona 4 to let me start a file

=D It's hilarious. I don't know why I'm so entertained by a game that makes pee jokes and swears but I am. The voice acting is pretty great, even if it takes its time in letting you do anything. Yousuke is an amazing derp and Chie's kind of a crybaby for such a badass.

arrrgh this is the result of me not having the cool systems I miss out on cool stuff ._.

Similar? persona, video games

My current job is as a sailor on a historic tall ship, currently on tour. We're open for tours most days, and we post our hours at the top of every dock we stay at.

Clearly posted hours. You walked right past them. I assume you can read, since you said you heard about use from the newspaper, which also had our hours.

So why are you screaming for us to come answer your questions at ONE IN THE MORNING!? We live on this boat, we work ten hours a day in the middle of winter, we get one day off a month, we are allowed our downtime! Stfu and go away before I wake up our gunner.

So, I play a lot of computer games. I adore strategy games. Now, I recently started playing gPotato's Heroes of Gaia. It's fun, there is a learning curve, but it's not too sharp if you pay attention and read things.

But see, that's the key. PAY ATTENTION AND READ THINGS.

I have to switch out of global chat because it is filled with the same questions over and over that are answered if you a) do the tutorial and pay attention, b) read every thing that hovers or pops up, and c) use common sense.

Perhaps I'm overly sensitive, but I'm not averse to questions. I asked a few myself. But is it just me, or are there just groups of people on games that want someone else to hold their hand every step of the way instead of using a wee bit of brain power and learning on their own?

Damned it you do, damned if you don't. I work in a textbook call center for about 10 zillion different schools and I hate working Sunday Night/Monday morning. People are cranky after weekends are over.

Tonight at work, I get a call from a student X University that everyone in my office hates(not actually sure they're accredited and the people who go there are REALLY high and mighty) who needs her Financial Aid Voucher ID number. We don't give that out for security purposes. For all we know, you're not really the student, and I could give this to a complete stranger who will now steal a couple hundred dollars from the school. The school is the one who is supposed to give it to the students.

I tell this to the student, and she says the school told her to come to us. I explained why we don't give that information out, but she wouldn't have any of it. She was getting very short with me, and I finally ask my supervisor what I should do. Supervisor tells me to verify the student ID and the email address, and if it's all correct, give it to her. I do so, and the customer starts egging me on ("Now was that SO hard?!"). I think she honestly wanted a fight or something. I figured we were done and asked if there was anything else I could do for her and she called me a C*nt.

I follow our policy, I explain said policy to the customer, trying to be patient, and she resorts to namecalling? WTF?!

Similar? questions and requests

((Dad Notes: bboa (Big Bertha's Outrageous Adventures) is my blog written from my Service Dog's point of view- If you find that amusing, read on, and certainly feel free to friend her! If you're annoyed by that, just sloooop on past, no offense taken!))

Oh my Gawsh, oh my Gawsh... it are time for that shiny aluminum tree, and all the pretty things on it, and the blinky lights on my porch and CANDY CANES!!!

I has a weakness for peppermint, you knows.

I do!

Every year, Dad makes sure there are presents for me under the tree, and sometimes, they come from awesome people who read my blog, ALL OVER DA WORLD!

Last year was Awesome and Amazing, and Dad sez I should Make A List... and he will be checkin it twice.

I dunno why tho.

He can't remember it if he only reads it once?

Oh wells, I loves him anyway, so here goes!


1) I loves me my TREATS!
I can't have rawhide or bones, (Teh Sad!!) but I can have Greenies, and "Edible chews" like nylabones edibles, or "Dental Chews" that are edible. I can have little 'real parts' treats like dried lung chips or piggy ears, piggy snouts or my FAVOURITE EVAR, "Texas Toothpicks" which are the tips of beef tails! OH how I loves those!

2) I loves toys I can FLOG with!
I don't tear up my toys, so I can have any fabric toy as long as any features are sewn-in- no button eyes for me! Plastic eyes and noses are dangerous, Dad says. (SIGH) But if it is sewn-on, I can have it!! (YAY!!) I Especially love toys that have long legs or other super-floppy parts, so I can play my favourite game "flogga flogga" ... this involves holding the toy in my mouwf, and waving my head ALL OVER so that the toy FLOGS EEEEEVERYONE! YAY! Flogga-flogga-flogga!

3) I love Bandannas!
Everywhere I go, people see that I am a Rottweiler, and some of them are intimidated by that. I wear a fresh clean bandanna every day when I work, because it makes me more personable at first glance! People will giggle or smile if I wear very silly ones, or ones appropriate to the holiday at hand. I wear the regular people-kind of bandanna, folded once in half into a triangle- you don't haveta buy doggie ones at all! I get a lot of mine at Walmart! I always always ALWAYS love my bandannas! They make me very happy, and every day I get my cape on to go to work, I go to the Bandanna drawer too,
and expect Dad to put a different one on me!

4) I like fleece blankies!
For my bed, they buy me those little fleecy blankies you can get super-cheaply. I love them very much, and sometimes, I even play FLOG with them! I like bright colours and silly patterns, because you know. I am a GIRL dawg, and we girl dawgs love to have bright and pretty things to wave around before she climbs atop them and gets her beauty sleep! If Dad would let me, I would have a /mountain/ of fleecy blankies!!

5) I love the MOVIES!
Oh, you think I am kidding, doncha... but of all the things I ever-Ever-EVER do for Dad, is that I go with him to the MOVIES! I lay down at his feet, and I keep a close eye on him. See, a movie can contain things which could give Dad a siezure. (and that would be scary and bad!) so if I smell that about to happen, I grab his hand, and poke his medicine container on his belt! Dad takes his medicine, and then he does not have a siezure! Yay!!! ...but I love to /watch/ the movie too!! I lay there, and I watch through the railing- I watch the screen, I watch all the action! -and AFTER the movie, Dad lets me have a reward- my own bites of popcorn!! YUMMY... It is the bestest time EVER. So if you have spare free movie tickets, or coupons for discounts on them, I would be SOOOOooo happy to get them! It is a human thing, but it is the thing I love to do best of all, too. (We have a Regal movie theatre here, and a Lowes, plus some other ones further away, that we sometimes visit.)

Dad said TEN things, but I don't need TEN things! HUMmmm...

OH OH OH!

6) For peoples to help Rescue Rotties!
People like Dad can choose to buy a puppy, or buy an adult dog from a breeder, or they can choose to RESCUE! did you know that YOU can Rescue a Rottie TOO?? Dad has had two Service Dogs in his lifetime, and both of us were young dogs at Rottie Rescues! We both went from a sad life, to a very very happy one! Some people think rescues make /better/ dogs, because we understand that life is not fair, and we really really appreciate it when we can suddenly be right with our human(s) all the time! We pay close attention to our jobs, which is all a Rottie ever wants in life anyway! We're workin' dogs by nature! If you can, drop a bag of dogfood off to help Rescue dogs, especially us Rotties, who get a bad rap sometimes- not ALL of us are bad, you know... and you never know. It might be a Rottie who saves YOUR life someday!

I hope that everyone has a GREAT holiday! (full of yummy yummy foods, and LOTS of peppermint treats!)
