new favourites...

Has anyone seen that new Intel commercial with celebrities sitting on people? A rather stupid commercial but then I noticed Michael Owen the soccer player was featured in the ad. I started watching soccer off and on in the last couple of years not because I particularly enjoy the sport itself, but because I decided soccer players have sweet bodies. Owen strikes (ha, get it?) me as a real clean-cut-cutie. If you have not seen the commercial, I suggest you check it out here: http://www.intel.com/intel/promotions/unwire/ads.htm

It's the British accent I tell you. I swear, I am such a sucker for British & Australian accents. Those accents will be the death of me, I know it. Linda and I were talking about hot accents and generally noted that a man with an accent is pretty cool; HOWEVER, Linda pointed out to me that she's not exactly attracted to ALL or ANY accents. I believe her exact words were "well, I'm not really into the mainland-chinese accent." LOL. My goodness she's a riot. And it got me thinking, I don't find french (either parisian or quebecois), german and tagalog accents necessarily "hot," but that's just me and I think I've just become a subliminal by-product of British colonialism--not that I'm ok with that either. I am ok with looking at super fine soccer players though.

Another new favourite thing I'm going to begin doing is blogging random "top 3" things/people/places etc. that I like/hate/enjoy etc. Why "3" you ask? Well, Jack White from the White stripes is obsessed with the #3 and he's pretty cool so I trust his quirky instincts, secondly, Sean Paul's new CD is titled "The Trinity" and anyone who knows me, knows that I luuuuvvv Sean Paul and finally, the BF answers everything with "I'll tell you why for the following three reasons..." So anyway, here goes:

My 3 favourite dim-sum dishes:

1. Seen Jook Yuen (Steamed Bean Curd Wrap)
2. Ha Gow (Shrimp Dumpling)
3. Low Bak Ko (Pan Fried Turnip Cake)

Theme of the week: FACE OFF!

So what's new in my life? Oh nothing much...Other than Orion's Belt of zits that found its way onto my lower chin. Yes, I do have horrible skin. What can I say, the Vietnamese eat chilies for fun and excessive amounts of chilies and hot sauce only exacerbates the colony of zits. Yes, those are the seductive pink five dollar cotton pajamas I wear at home. Yes, I do have freckles eventhough I'm Asian. Would people quit asking that. The Scots aren't the only ones with freckle-privilege aight? Yes, that is a nasty-ass picture of me. Trust me, I'm extremely photogenic and absolutely stunning in person, not to mention my undeniable charisma, biting sarcasm and magnetic personality. You love me. You know you do. Look, when you're feeling pretty shitty about your skin, the only thing left to do is love yourself and convince the world that you are fabulous.

Ok, no more complaints about my face. Unlike the BF, at least I still have most of my face in tact. Poor guy. He's the sweetest boy who just happens to be walking around with dripping bits of skin and flesh these days due to an unfortunate biking accident. Let's just say, as a couple, Sol and I already have our Halloween costumes ready...The DynamicDerma-Duo.
