A Cutebutdeadly Fun Taiwan Co-Host…or maybe just Cutebutwacky?
Yesterday I was on AlivenotDead.com and saw that Rottendoubt had posted something about how Discovery’s Fun Taiwan was on the search for a new Co-Host.
WELL. normally i wouldn’t be the type to shoot a video about myself talking about myself. never. who does that? Ok, that’s a lie, but normally i at least wouldn’t think of making this type of video. i can’t stop imagining all the lonelies out there sending in tapes for The Real World. But i thought — damn — a hosting gig on a travel show (in TAIWAN!) could be exactly what I need to reconnect with my homeland! so i decided to see what would happen if i grabbed the Flip camera and set myself loose in the courtyard unsupervised.
Needless to say, I uncontrollably got wacky on that shizz. Who knows if Discovery folks will get my sense of humor, but I hope at least you do! Please watch it and please rate if you like it! If you don’t like it, let’s pretend it never happened. shhhhhh…
You may visit the YouTube channel of all the entries to watch all the other contestants. if you can find my video please vote!
p.s. this video is substituting my photo for today. HA!

Superfuture superfun
once upon a time i was going to visit TOKYO and a friend shows me a site called Superfuture. anyone looking to consume fashion of all kinds will essentially find locations of all peddlers of COOL mapped out on this site with descriptions and sometimes store or brand websites. pretty rad.
so, fast forward to this summer, after i had forgotten all about this site, and i was instant messaging with a friend of mine. he sends me these photos of some chick, and says, “what’s up with gladiator sandals?” well, the answer was, “they’re ugly as shit,” but man, was i intriqued! what was this??? some girl putting pictures of herself on a website to be scrutinized by a million internet lurkers??? how do i get on this train??
what my friend showed me was a thread in a part of Superfuture called Supertalk–a bunch of threads started by Superfuture readers to talk about fashion, design, shopping, but then a bunch of trash too, like who’s hot, who sucks, and look how cool i am. this particular thread my friend showed me is called WAYWT (what are you wearing today?). people post photos of their outfits and they get internet reputation from other readers. it’s like an internet popularity contest based on what you contribute to the threads. on one waywt thread people are only supposed to post photos, but since there are so many opinionated mother fuckers out there, someone started one that’s the “chat edition” so that people can talk shit and publicly criticize someone’s fit, or publicly praise them as well. OF COURSE i started posting on both threads. i mean, how could i not????? glorious fun!!
i did have to earn the respect of all the veteran sufu folks the hard way. my first fit was some hipster trashy shit that i wear when i bartend sometimes and these people tore my shit apart. i had super negativo feedback and i think some people hated me. haha. they’re very serious about this thread, ok??? but i realized that even though the thread is called “what are you wearing TODAY,” everyone really only wants to see, “what are you wearing on the days you’re wearing your best shit especially if you’re a newbie.” since the days of my first couple shitty posts, i have now garnered some respect with a string of finer outfits, and as i continue to post, my style continues to get better, though i seriously need to make more money to dress the way i REALLY want to dress. it’s actually really nice to have something that inspires me to dress better in my daily life. dressing better makes me feel good and it translates in my auditions too. shout out to all ya’ll sufu kids. i loves ya, i really do.
here is an example of a post I made, the other day on my birthday (12/10). maybe this is all just super narcissistic bullshit, but hey…i put my IMDb link on the page and it increases my rank on that shit. win win. i may put some of my fits on this blog from time to time cuz it’s fun.
