a visible likeness?
hm. so according to empire interactive, the videogame company, it looks like my game is out!
for those of you who don't know, i was paid $1500 to stand in for chow yun-fat in the videogame based on _bulletproof monk_. it was a one-day job, and i had to practically shave my head, get my hairline altered, wear a bunch of makeup, and put on the actual clothes worn by chow (which fit perfectly, oddly enough). and after that, they took pictures of me. lots and lots of pictures. with some weird (e.g. heisman) poses.
anyways, i'm trying to contact them to see if i can get a free copy of the game and press promos... judging from the picture, i can't tell if they used my face or not. i mean, i can *sort* of see myself in this one screenshot, but i'm not sure. hehe. :)
[just talked to them, and it seems the game is "on hold," i.e. it might not ever be released. *RAAR*]
grueling tuesday
can't seem to work today. i have one block left to test, which is the good news. the inevitable bad news is that it's the hardest one, and the most poorly written. arrgh.
does anybody else get eczema when they're stressed? ugh. i get it on my face, and it looks like i've been punched on both cheeks. bad bad bad!
um, yeah. not much going on today. basketball was very grueling (4 on 4 full court), and we just couldn't win any of the games. i even missed a fast break point blank layup. *RAAR*
on a positive note, the kitchen is now restocked with dr pepper. *cheer*
here's something embarrassing. friday night, at _kill bill vol. 2_, i bumped into my friend dave. he brought a girl, and i recognized her as one of the orkut girls i e-mailed a few weeks ago. she wrote back once, and then i never heard from her again. i hope she didn't recognize me!
so my brother apparently enjoyed UCLA. he (and my family) will be up in the bay area this weekend, visiting berkeley. hopefully i'll be able to meet up with them and at least have a meal. although, i sort of don't want my family (especially my mom) to see me in my current tourettic state.
actually, to be perfectly honest, i am in no social mood these days. except maybe talking on the phone or something. and this is pretty alarming, because i haven't been in a tic-related hermit mode in years. not to mention the speed dating shindig tomorrow night. maybe i'll get there early and liquor up. ha!
so why *were* john stevens and diana degarmo holding hands during last week's _american idol_? HMMM?
