No really! I’ve been watching “The Flava of Love”, which is like the bachelor, only Flava Flav is the bachelor. [Or as he says it.. the “Black-chelor”] Honestly, it is one of the greatest shows that is on TV right now. Hands down.
Anyways, I kind of left the TV on in the background with that show running, and right after the show they started playing a documentary on Flav, and something immediately caught my ear.
Flava Flav and I HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY!
What’s in a birthday?
So, there are people who would say that your date of birth actually means something. That something in the way the stars are aligned blah blah blah…
Seriously, though, is that really true?
After finding out that Flav and I share the same birthday, I became curious as to who else I shared birthdays with… Which brought me to this site… Where you can search by birthdate for celeb names.
I mean, sure Flava Flav and I share differences, but I guess if you really look at it, we’re a bit similar in personality. So, I decided to see if that was true for the rest of the famous people who were born on my birthday.
But no, apparently most people who are born on the same day as me aren’t famous enough for me to know who they are.
With the exception of Kevin Smith and a couple of others, I actually don’t recognize any of the names. A little disappointing… But I really like Kevin Smith, so I guess that makes up for it.
Dogma was one of my favorite movies of all time.
So what do you guys think? Are we moulded by the date that we are born on? Do you believe the superstitions?
Do me, Flava Flav and Kevin Smith share some kind of beautiful destiny?
and… What stars were born on your birthday?

I used to be…
So many things.
I have this habit of getting really into something and then abandoning it when I lose interest, hit a roadblock, or finish whatever I was trying to accomplish. I think that’s why I’ve never become an expert at anything, just mediocre at many things.
I used to be:
a dancer [Click “Kim Tutting”] (no one ever believes me on this one…)
REALLY into k-pop
REALLY into j-pop
a porn site owner
a piano player
a violin player
a chinese leg-piano player [the thing you saw on kung fu hustle]
an introvert
an online celeb [for like, a week]
really into gay rights and society
a painter
a knitter
a needlepointer
a cook
a seamstress
a clothing designer
a website designer
a community-service doer
a leader
an artist
brilliant
…I feel like i’ve abandoned the creative part of myself lately. the part that catches on fire and can’t be stopped for weeks, months. The part that becomes obsessive with my goal. now, i’m just… lukewarm and floating in the abyss.
What have you been in the past?
P.S. For those of you in the LA area who are hitting up together as one.
I’ll see you there maybe? PVD!!

I received the comment of the year from a friend I haven’t hung out with in years:
That’s exactly what I was thinking about when I wrote this, man. That’s exactly what I was thinking about.
Dear Bao,
One day I’m going to write a story, and the characters are going to be something like:
The freshman.
The gardener.
The pharmacist.
The gamer.
The mexican.
The theif.
The gay guy.
The dancer.
The bitch.
… and all the other assorted characters that come with it.
Like “Horse Girl” and all the assorted sluts that come
along for the ride.
Love,
Kim.

The drawbacks of being straight-edged.
I have one word for the current group of friends I have: Wholesome.
Yep. We’re wholesome. We do wholesome activities like
karaoke-ing, community service, dinner parties, and sometimes if people are feeling
adventurous enough we go to Dave and Busters to drink and play video
games.
Wholesome.
I was thinking about it, though, and there are some drawbacks to this wholesomeness.
1. No one will do anything illegal with me
It’s not like I’m going to, but what if I did?
I mean, what if at one point, if I suddenly decided to become a drug
dealer? My current friends would not support me in that decision.
They definitely wouldn’t buy from me… And they’d probably even try to
talk me out of it.
Hell, they’d probably try to talk me out of doing drugs let alone become a drug dealer.
So this brings me to my second point:
2. Nobody knows anyone who is in any shady business
Hanging out with shadier friends, I always knew somebody who knew
someone who could point me to someone else for something that I
needed. Fake ID? No problem. Drugs? Even easier.
These days, I get giggles when underagers want me to buy them alcohol.
As much as I love all my friends, there are days when I wish I knew more people who were a little more shady.
Or do I?

But, it’s just a whim.

I call it shutting down, but it’s more like the blue screen of death. I just…stop. Stop working, stop being productive, stop wanting to do anything of worth for anybody. Stop doing anything that means anything to anybody.
No more responsibilities.
I pretend they don’t exist.

Uninspired
Inspiration.
Four years ago today I wrote:
20011111
i’m the type of person that becomes easily inspired by the people
around me and the people that i’m exposed to. i take what i see and
like in people and try to infuse those qualities in myself. that’s
quite possibly why i’m such a mixed nut. however, i’m not normally the
person that inspires other people.
that’s
why it touches me so much when somebody tells me that i’ve inspired
them. to me, that has got to be one of the most touching compliments in
the world. i mean, it’s like saying that whatever it is that i did that
inspired them, was good enough that they were prompted to do something
similar themselves.
wow. that’s really powerful.
—
there’s lots of people that inspire me. many of which are on the side
right there under ‘linked’. a lot of them are people that have made me
think “wow. i want to be like that”. people that make me feel the need
to become a better person.
i wonder if it’s weird. ^^* probably , huh… but i don’t care! 
I was thinking today about how I haven’t been inspired to write lately
because I haven’t really found anything around here [xanga] inspiring
enough to interest me.
But then I realized, why am I waiting and counting on others to do my job for me, when I need to figure shit out by myself?
I mean, what kind of blogger am I that I need other people in order to write?
From tomorrow on, my resolve is to inspire YOU.
Because today I’m not motivated enough to do it.
