THANKSGIVING

Happy Thanksgiving ya'll! We celebrated this special holiday 6206 style baby! We had Hotpot (Huo Guo) and Turkey! Now, as some of you might remember, we had AMERICAN style CHINESE hot pot. Check out what they like to eat in their huo guo in China...


DEFINITELY NO PIG BRAIN in this one! We had lots of veggies, and fish balls, and meat. Let me just say this now, I will NEVER again take my mom for granted when she goes shopping for these ingredients!


My friend Dyana (and her brother Ben) and I
made a turkey, from scratch ya'll! It got it's butt stuffed full of stuffing, and apples, and celery, and onions. It was juicy!

And after dinner, we made these

CTOWN's friend Dan approves as you can see

As a side note, Dan is currently working on AMERICAN GLADIATORS

and is in the process of getting me an audition to be a GLADIATOR cause my body is SWOLL son! My codename will be THE RICE MAN, and everytime I beat a guy down in the joust, I'll say, "No more Mr. Rice guy."

AND, as if that wasn't enough, this being Hollywood and all, a celebrity dropped by to say hello


AND TO TOP THAT OFF, he brought over another celeb friend, too!


Wow. What a night! I give thanks to everyone who reads this blog. Who I DO NOT give thanks to is the members of this house who have seemed to forgot that we even have a blog. I hate them. No i don't. Yes, I do. Merry Christmas!

SIMONYIN PERFORMER SERIES

Also, here is another rehearsal video. We are 28 days out from our first show.

SIMONYIN PRODUCER SERIES

wow. the SIMONYIN PRODUCER SERIES has really taken off! So, due to popular demand, here is installment THREE. And in case you were wondering, yes, she did get it from her mama. Enjoy!

is it november already?

This is ridiculous! The year two thousand seven is almost over. Soon Thanksgiving will be here, and then Christmas, and then New Years, and then 2008! Good Grief!

Speaking of Good Grief, anyone that is in the LA area, should come see the new Christmas show I am in rehearsals for...
You'll see singing, dancing, prancing, and me in HOT PANTS (one of those is false).


Here are some house updates:

SIMON

Rehearsal schedule

And when I'm not rehearsing, I should be doing other more productive stuff, but instead, my second installment of, THE SIMONYIN PRODUCER SERIES

Shout out to THE WOODMAN. He LOVES these videos.

CTOWN
She is working her ARSE off! On many an occasion she has said that this job will make a woman out of her. I think Guilin already did that, but who am I to tell her otherwise? She works so hard that when she gets home, she just collapses from exhaustion...literally.

JUSTIN
All she does is come home and read scripts and watch movies that her "clients" make.

Although, we did go grocery shopping last night, and Justin made me a wonderful bowl of noodle soup. It was amazing. Justin, if you are reading this, I want a bowl right now! Also, her mom is on Facebook. Wow.

TIM
Tim is also in a new show.

He also talks to our neighbor who only speaks Spanish. Apparently, she gave us these rocks.


JOE
After leaving MTV cause he was sick of the bullshit, Joe is now constantly away, shooting shows for MTV.


We also had a house meeting

and it was decided that yes, i should, indeed, wash my hands after urination.

I have way too much time (and apparently pee) on my hands.

Peace out homies.

Asian Nation

This past Friday, we went to a random strip mall storefront owned by a sweet, old Korean couple to sing karaoke. They had a wireless mic there! Get with it, all hard-wired and thus restrictive karaoke venues!

Saturday, I ran errands. Last week, I bought the following for a total of $5 on Magnolia Ave.



That night, Joe and I randomly decide to go to San Diego. Justina was already there for a film festival. Simon was working on Saturday night. Joe's cousin lives down there and it's only 1 1/2 hours away, so why not! We get there and ditch the fratty bar scene for the beach.



After the beach, we went to a burrito place. The burritos are amazing out here. They also have these drinks.



The flavors are: Jamaica, Horchata and Tamarindo. I tasted each one. Not an immediate fan, but they seem popular with the locals.

The guy that helped us was awesome.



Yes, that is a gold AK-47 medallion.

I have been living like a freshman in college. Going out and then eating Jack in the Box at 3am. Freshman 15! ha. sigh.

I am still in my palm tree awe phase. The mountains and palm trees as a constant backdrop still amazes me.



It's been my bday for 1 hour. My roommates surprised me with cake and a balloon after midnight! We were watching tv and everyone left to go to Ralph's. I had no idea! I heart my 6206 roomies.

freelance or die muther f'er!

So a lot of you have asked for this, and who am I to deny you? Here is an exterior picture of the house.


And here is the money shot.



We've spent many a day by the pool and many a night by the fire. I must say, living with these guys has made me feel like I never left New York sometimes, except for the awesome weather, gigantic living space, and oh, no freaking metro!

There was a moment last weekend when Greg Woo came to LA, and we had dinner at a Japanese joint. It was him, me, Cynthia, Joe, Mike Y, Gary Gabisan, Justin, and I was like, "wow, I'm in the East Village right now, and we all just got done shooting a Top Ten Chi Countdown!"

Whoa. Talk about mind explosion. I was expecting Woody and Cheriyan to walk in at any moment. Now if that happened, I would have exploded for sure!

So now, I spend my days freelance producing, while still acting and auditioning (shout out to Joe and Mike's company, GREY TV)!

Check out my latest producer gig!



There is obviously more than just that, but it's a far cry from an emmy, that's for sure.

Anyway, producing is fun. and i must give credit where credit is due. Please check out this site for my mentor's page. thank you my brother!

It's 4:00AM west coast time right now. What the freak am I still doing up? The answer: being entertaining as hell with this post right now!

Check out my "production" schedule for these past days.

Anyway, we've hopefully, got some pretty creative ways in which we plan on showing you the interior of the house...and other going ons.

Stay tuned!
