lights, camera, action


the other day i get an instant message from george telling me about how they're making a step-up 3 and were asking for asian extras. i sent an e-mail with my name and picture and got a phone call on tuesday night saying to come in the next day. good stuff =)

got up nice and early on wednesday with george and mike to go to where they were filming a scene in nyc (the scene is a dance battle that takes place in some place in underground chinatown; actual taping took place further downtown near battery park). spent a few hours just waiting around waiting to be told what to do before finally going to the set with almost 400 other extras. was on set for more than 5 hours (for a two minute dance battle scene), ate dinner, then chilled for 3 more hours before finally being dismissed.

the best part was probably just being in the holding room for several hours and meeting a lot of chill people. listening to freestyle battles, watching some guys do the single ladies dance on point, reminiscing about old school tv shows, meeting lots of aspiring actors and actresses, etc.

i also met the guy of my dreams. half-filipino, half-italian, he was BEAUTIFUL. i got his first name and where he was from but that was all i got before he got called to the set. and i didn't get a chance to talk to him afterwards. shit sucks. couldn't even properly stalk him on facebook 'cause he had a really unique first name which i have no idea how to spell.

hopefully i get a few seconds on the big screen.
hopefully he does too, so i can buy the dvd and watch him over and over again.
i wanna say i'm joking but i don't think i am 'cause i'm just a creep like that.

horoscopes.

i'm a pisces.
i didn't start paying attention to my horoscope until my pisces freshman roommate read our horoscope out for us every other day and a lot of it would be accurate. i placed it as a fixture on my igoogle homepage for kicks.

this was my july 4th horoscope:

Saturday, Jul 4th, 2009 -- In the midst of having yourself a jolly old time today, something could stop you right in your tracks. You must respond intelligently to this sobering information or things could quickly turn from bad to worse. However, facing a problem head-on could diffuse any trouble before it even occurs. Don't wait; the clock is ticking.






really...?
