Lost in connection, looking for...

I was reading some missing persons notice haphazardly and it just suddenly prompted me to a question, do you have any long lost friends you really want to get back in touch?

I mean, even though we always try very hard to keep in touch with those we care, there are always some "lost in connection", some who just disappear without a trace... so if you are given a free  opportunity to search for these missing persons, who would be on your mind?

I guess I have quite some candidates on my mind, the on...Read more

Audition day2

We had the second round of audtion yesterday night, again, it was a very small and simple audition, we met several potential candidates and they all seemed to be well prepared. Everything went smooth.

Oil Spill in SF Bay

What a disaster to the wildlife.. look at the picture below..it is just so horrible... just one mistake and the environment is doomed. considering how many "mistakes" human being have made throughout the course of history, we should be lucky that we are still alive...

Audition day1

two of the actresses we met are both awesome and so it was really a difficult task for me...Read more

earthquake in the bay area

a magnitude 5.6  earthquake hit the bay area a couple of days ago, didnt do much damage but was a shock to a lot of people as it was the largest quake since the 1989 Loma Prieta quake.. i was in sf and could feel the force, but since the epicenter was close to san jose, the impact was much smaller here..as compared to my friends down in sj who was really scared by the shaking...
