Last week was a blast with so much stuff going on from the HKfilmart (thanks to Chowpatty for the invite) and meeting several people at the Japan Night.
Walking through the filmart we got to catch up with Patty Keung (not chow patty), but the wonderful Auntie Patty. I got to cruise with the legendary Gordon Liu, which words cannot describe. You just have to check out his showreel.

We mostly spoke about music which was odd. Cant' wait to hear him jam.
The three Chinateers.
Group shot this time with Frederic Ambroisine.
Bumped into a lot of friends new and old. I heard screaming from behind and it was Rene.
Another scream, but from a very familiar face. My old boss Bob Sheng. We worked together for a few years ( I must've been a pain in his ass) before I came back to HK. He continued to produce the movie THE WOMEN and the upcoming KING OF FIGHTERS. I begged him not to make it look like the current dragon ball or street fighter film. He went ahead and assured me it's DARK and VIOLENT and was happy with the directors cut. Could it be the first GOOD videogame movie?
After spending the whole day walking around, Chowpatty and I met up with my fiance Ida and headed over to Japan Night.
Got to meet up with Juju Chan (I stole this from your album) hee hee with Ida on the left.
Ida and I posing with Rob the most awesome clown around town.
Finally got to chat and talk with Chung Tsang.
Got to meet Kazuya (Japanese action director/actor) who wore this bad ass shirt and not understanding a word of it. Ida was able to talk to him in full Japanese. Thanks to JasmineT for the introduction and hope to see you guys in Tokyo!
Group shot with mastermind Etchy, Kazuya and Mr.ass.
One more group shot with Chowpatty and Masae.
After that, good friend Jae Chong came into town. I got to meet with him in the studio while he was working with Coco Lee. Later that night I met him at Racks which was having a 2nd anniversary. It was full on crazy. I'm just wondering who took pics? I remember somebody taking a bunch. Berton was that you? So, I got to talk with Grace Huang, Celina Jade, the CB fresh crew, Kevin Poon from Clot and Adrienne Lau. Too bad I couldn't drink. I was the driver that night. The jelly shots were so tempting.
At racks with Swing (music nation), chowpatty and Jae Chong (master of all asian music). A guy named Arne came up to me and was so pleased that I was wearing his shirt that he designed. GEARS OF WAR 2! Oh yea, such a small world. I lost his name card tho...
After that night Justin and I headed over to Macau to gamble and eat with my family. I lost like 800 hk dollars. Damn, I was so close to winning 100,000. So close. I'm going back to try my luck again soon. mwa ha ha.
I got back friday morning when all hell broke loose. Mario had to be rushed to the vet. I had no idea he'd end up going in for surgery and then a cosmetic surgery and finally cuttin' his balls off all at the same time.
The following is what happened to mario. The pictures are not for the faint of heart.
I'M WARNING YOU NOW. DON'T LOOK IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE A LITTLE BLOOD.
Mario had this lump on his head for a while. Basically that lump was a bite that got infected. It filled with blood to the point where it found a tunnel behind his ear and made its way to his cheek. So when i came back friday he scratched himself causing the cheek to flow with blood. thats when I rushed him down to the clinic.
It ends up that the skin on his cheek was dead skin, while the vet was trying to shave it. Chunks were taken off, then a cosmetic surgery had to be done even after taking the lump out.
In the meantime to save him from going for another surgery, the doc suggested I get his balls cut off.
Well, now mario is home and has a plastic pipe going through his neck to drain the blood and no balls left. He's happy, but I have to watch him real carefully for the next few days so that he won't scratch. This sucks, cause I can't meet friends that are in town..like Jae (whose leaving soon).
The zombie dog with the cosmetic surgery...you see the pipe going through? It's like someone got murdered in my apartment with blood everywhere. The look on peoples faces on the street were funny when I walked him back to the car.
The top view of his ear where the lump was taken out. You can see the trail of stiches which was the tunnel or basically a drain.
As you can see, he's quite active and checkin' out the bag from the HKfilmart.
Okay, now I gotta relax...and chill. I've just been watching mario with Ida all weekend with sleepless nights. I have to make sure he doesn't scratch or that'll be another story!
Time to catch up on some gaming now!
Due by Popular demand, here is Mario wearing his funnel hat.
Its the largest size since his neck is so thick. hahahaha. He hates it, so because of that, he has a message for you. Somebody has to be able to translate what he's saying.

Adidas 09 party and Safari @ M1NT
Monday, Mar 16, 2009 2:08AM / Standard Entry
Last week, I got a bitchin ass invitation card to the Adidas celebration party. I'm serious its genius!
Thanks to Kevin over @ Clot for sending it. I tried to find you, but the place was PACKED!
Mom recieved this package at her house and called me concerned about this very strange milk carton. I really had no idea it was the invite to a crazy ass party.
Instead of milk little cut outs poured out to my suprise.
OH a shoe and a jacket...
Hats and stars! CRAZY!
Now thats original. The card carton had crazy details like the expiration date which was the day of the party. Directions to the location were on the back and even the inside had a crazy design layout. What the hell man, I need to start thinkin' how to do my invitation cards to my gaming day @ my house. Incase your wondering I'm setting up an AnD and CBFRESH videogame party. Its gonna be crazy. I'm thinking about sending everybody a card thats...well, lets wait and see what I come up with.
When we got to the party, Soler was just entering the building. The Italian Stallions are working on a new album and I can't wait. I had the pleasure to sing with them on stage, but I'm sure nobody noticed me cause eyes were just fixated on them handsome chaps.
Speaking of handsome...The hardcore 24 herbs doin an interview.
Adidas went all out decorating the place. The DJ booth was tight! The place was like 3 floors including the rooftop. Drinks were free flowing and I think each floor had 2 bars with all the Vodka you could drink. It was madness.
Group shot with the WallStreet fighter boys and Alive not dead peeps. Vince, you look so angry...You must've been wanting that 5th or 6th or 10th drink already.
24 Herbs rockin' the house!
Maine and Ghost Style Chillin'
I was gettin' really hot, so a bunch of us decided to check out the rooftop. Much Better, but the place was packin' really good.
Me lookin' a little sweaty and Boon lookin' real RED. The downside of drinking.
This is another angle from Etchy's blog in the lift. Simon was gettin' everybody to join us at the Safari party the whole way down. He was like a walking billboard. Justin stayed behind a while longer only to drink more and more and more.
Even the elevator lift was decked out. Thanks Adidas, it was a bitchin' party indeed.
Next we headed down to M1NT for the Safari party!
But...first we stopped at McDee's for a snack. Look, I found a computer and decided to go on the shoutbox. Can you guys zoom in and read what I typed?
Hahahaha. I was pretty buzzed already. I even left on the computer with my account on when we left so some employee might be like WTF?
We arrived at the party to find WhOA! A real lizard sittin' on the table. That's nutz. I think two more snakes joined in as well.
It was a pretty good turnout when we showed up.
Justin finally came and showed up with ReneW.
Simon doin his thang. I had no idea what was really going on...really.
Next thing you know the talented and brilliant man Jun showed up scolding me about everything.
After that we ended up at another place volar, which seemed to last seconds and finally ending back up at the FLYING PAN!
You didn't want to be there either. I really have no idea what went on here too. It was just screaming and eating. Simon looks scary.
I'm glad I didn't bring my camera this time. It would've been out of this world.
Thanks Adidas and AnD for a fun night.
