    This morning I jumped on a train with Justin to go from Washington D.C. to NYC.  Prior to our departure, Justin and I had one of the best, home-made-tasting hamburgers in the world...and it was in the food court of the D.C. train station!  Go figure.

    Upon arriving in NYC, we had barely enough time to drop off our stuff at Hells Kitchen when we had to head out to Queens to attend the Organization of Chinese Americans awards banquet.  When we popped out of the subway in Queens, I seriously had no idea where we were.  We had to find a Chinese restaurant somewhere in a sea of Chinese restaurants.  It's like trying to find a needle in a needle stack.  Then it started to rain.

    Justin and I were totally blown away by the amazing people of OCA.  We met the first Asian woman to pass the bar in NYC, Ellen Young...very cool.  There was also Bill Imada, a business leader in the ad agency that led the charge of taking away all the add sponsorship from a big NY radio station after they did a rather racist skit on the air.  And we got to hang out with Emmy Award winning journalist, Ti Hua Chang.  Thanks OCA for inviting us out!

    Only in NYC can you go from a political awards banquet to hanging at a hip hop club all in the same night.  And that's exactly what Justin and I did.  We jumped a train from Queens back to Manhattan's lower west side.  Peter Chun and BASE NY were helping us promote FTG at their club, Hiro Ballroom.  It was very cool.  The whole club was plastered with FTG posters and they were playing clips of FTG on the jumbotron.  And they even gave us our own private booth.  Strangely enough no one in the club actually sits in any booth...they sit ON TOP of them.  Don't know why they do that, but standing on furniture at a classy joint is certainly something I recommend everyone should try at least once in their lives.  It makes you feel like a bad ass rebel.  Tough and rebellious.  Anyway, it's 4 am right now and we just got in.  I'm going to try something called sleep.  : )  -Roger

    Cool, that banquet sounds very nice too, but that club sure as hell looks like it can kick up a storm

    You get flushed when you drink too? haha.

    After having all the furniture stomped by all manner of people, I wouldn't wanna sit on them either. I like this way of sitting though. Sometimes when everybody's sitting in their chairs, I just wanna get up and sit on the chair (ala you) but somehow my observance of etiquette prevents me.

    No offense but you look like you've had a bit too much of the good stuff...haha....so what do you mean by Hells Kitchen? Like the studio for the show, I'm confused...

    I'm really excited about how all these organizations and places are putting such an effort to help promote FTG!!!!

    knew tht's going to happen. but tht night...i was at NY Public Library for Mr Daniel Wu. hahaha!!!  *blush*

    are BASE NYC going to throw a bigger one on Oct 5 night after the screening? tht should be way more 'celebrate-able'. :P

    ...i strongly recommend sitting on top of furniture. it is definitely better. you don't wanna know the type of party Hiro had on the night before. not as 'upper class' as BASE party. still fun though. :P
