Rude Cactus mentioned Star Trek-centric punk band, Warp 11. So I visited their website last night, read their lyrics, and sampled some MP3s. Oh. My. God. This. Band. Is. Fucking. Awesome. Not to mention I’m a total geek for loving this too....

You know you’re one of the boys when you’re the only girl on their email joke list. Or is it because I’m the only Asian friend of theirs that they know for sure who could take a joke? The following joke obviously pokes fun at Asians. And I too laugh at it. Somewhere out there, this could surely happen. But to others, you’ll see this as racist, being sent around by a bunch of white dudes. But as I have learned through the years with this group, nothing is sacred. They would turn right around and trash their whiteness just...

Just learned the chords for “To Be With You” by Mr. Big. Frighteningly, I still have the words memorized from back in the days. Yeah, yeah. I’m a sucker for most of the songs on VH1 Most Awesomely Bad Love Songs Ever list, what I can tell you. And yes, before you ask.

And so, after the Pope update, the conversation went like this: Oakley: So, honey. As the antichrist, now that the Pope is dead, where are you partying tonight? Brandon: [laughs] Woot! I’m Buddhist. He’s spiritual....

We got our group pictures taken today to be used on posters and other PR materials for our final “My Own Story” performance. We got to do all sorts of silly things for the camera, but I’m sure it’ll be awesome when it comes out. You’ll see the final poster and stuff here eventually. I have my Geek Girl shirt on. Although I don’t think it’d come out… This is also the first time since the Final 7 are together in the same room. The past 2 weeks, we kept missing a person. We have a great group with some...
