About Me:
I'm an actor in NY. Most people hear that and say,"Oh, cool, I don't know anybody doing that..awesome, dude!" But I can usually tell, that deep down, they pity me. I think I'd get the same reaction if I claimed to work as a gigolo (which is sorta the same thing anyway). First, there's the immediate shock value, then a brief bout of intrigue, a tinge of envy, then...pity. I suppose I judge other professions similarly, but I love being an actor. And if the same goes for what I think is you and your shitty job, then high five to you. I'll always be able to say that I tried to do what I've always wanted to do. But I've come to watershed moment in my creative career. I've realized that you really have to take control of your artistic destiny. Sounds pretty cliche, right? It is. But it's more than sending in your headshots, rehearsing relentlessly and sleeping with directors and producers (That's where the gigolo part comes in). You have to write your own stuff. Direct your own stuff. Sleep with assistant line producers and then work your way up. Really get out there and say what you wanna say. So I've been writing, getting behind the camera, and changing the way I look at myself as an artistic agent. I've always figured that I better do this while I'm still young and can tolerate small apartments, longer commutes, and sleepless nights. Still cliche, I know. I probably sound pretty intense, and I am, in some ways, but I've always been a pretty laid back dude. I love BBQs and picnics, dancing my ass off, a hearty laugh and hugs just as much as the rest of us. On my cellphone it says, "Good Times." Life's too short to skip out on what you love, you know? Man, I'd totally be a walking cliche if it weren't for the fact that I'm Chinese. Ha.

Who I Want to Meet:
Good people with a craving for life, knowledge and good eats. I'll really meet just about anybody though. At least once. But if you're really lame, I'll probably have to hang out with you in a group setting.

9. Oh yeah tell your parents thanks for
the dinner engagement during the winter
break. PSS being asian in the south
suxs! baker's dozen suxs, kevin loo
suxs, stairs suck, ...........
come to your party even if you don't go
to his because it's way the fuck out in
Brooklyn and it's three degrees outside.
Jackson started out at Yale as just
some guy. Now he's a famous actor for
Asian TV . Not many people know that
he was also the stunt double for Harold
in 'Harold and Kumar go to Whitecastle'.
I'll bet you thought it was really that guy
who played Harold riding that Cheetah--
Ha! Wrong, ass. It was Jackson Loo.
Jackson also has lots of friends,
probably because he's a nice guy and
people like him--at least that's my guess.
my kid Jack. But not after Jackson. I
mean, Jackson's a cool name, too(see:
Andrew " and Frederick " Turner). He
also told me he wanted to do my
girlfriend once. Which is nice positive
affirmation. I mean, I do, too. So for
that I thank him. Other than that, I
don't know anything about him. He's
like a puzzle to me. A little Asian
Gary Coleman puzzle.
he draws skies well too.
that everyone hates in High School
because he didn't have to study. He is
the best crammer I've ever seen. In
fact, he puts me to shame. It seems
like everything comes easy to him, from
school all the way down to ping pong.
Someone should really kick his ass!
Actually, I'm just bitter from the
beaning he gave me in 6th grade Little
League. YOU'RE MY BOY BLUE!!!
being INCREDIBLY hot, he is just so
much fun to be around. He's got that
California-laid-back air about him that
just draws people in.
grew up in sunny suburbia, but now he's
into the whole URBAN thing. he's
really smart, but he never ACTS it.
his picture is HOT, but if you could
see the rest of his BODY you'd see he's
not that tall a guy, rather typical in
ASIA.
he's for me. he's for you.
