in california!

now i am officially in the bay area (just got here saturday) and will be here for 7 months!

since they're ending their tour in this area i got to meet the awesome guys of Wong Fu Productions at a local highschool. I introduced myself to them, since I'm friends with the brother of one of them. They were very pleasant and fun to talk to. Then I sat in an auditorium full of high school students and watched their first feature length film, which was absolutely wonderful! It had a very different feel from their shorts but still absolutely amazing, and sweet, and touching and funny! It is especially easy to relate to as an Asian, but not exclusively. The audience was mostly Asian, haha, and they were a lot of fun to watch the movie with-- laughing, cheering, going "awwww!" at the right moments.

Then since I had no way to get back and my careless self printed out directions to get to the train station wrong, Wesley drove me back to my place. I felt so bad about it >_<. But oooh, i'm sure some of the highschool girls would have killed to be in my shoes... Except maybe they wouldn't want to give up their shoes, since many of them got them autographed, haha.

The guys were so cool, and very nice, and I was so touched by the film. They are going to go so far! I really believe in them and admire their work. Do go watch their short movies if you haven't before! And check out the DVD whenever it comes out!
