Censored
A few posts ago I mentioned that I might be able to get a video of myself... well, I recorded the video, but nooooo, I wasn't in it. Basically what happened is that CKCO (local CTV station) came to interview my prof and they filmed in our lab. During their filming, I didn't look back, but I thought the back of my head would be in it. I was wrong as I apparently was too short to make it into the shot when John was talking. Ah well... here's the bit they aired on TV this evening.
It took freaking forever to get it to encode in Windows Media Encoder because it kept on crashing!!@##$!@# (I still love M$ though) Eventually I found a little work around, but still, so tedious. Even my 3rd party editors, rippers and encoders work better with each other... Ah well, hopefully Microsoft will fix it.
BTW, this weekend I watched Infernal Affairs 2 and 3 and I also saw One Nite in Mongkok. If you like Infernal Affairs, you should also enjoy One Nite in Mongkok. While it's not the same storyline as IA, ONIM was surprisingly intense for a triad/cop movie. If you checked out the IA link, you'll notice there's a remake being done, called The Departed. I seriously hope they don't ruin that one like they did The Grudge. On the topic of remake, I heard that Tarantino is trying to import a full chinese movie and just sub it due to Kill Bill. On a less violent side, I managed to find The Lovers, which is kind of like a chinese version of Romeo and Juliet, minus the family feud... so no, maybe it's not like Romeo and Juliet... anyway, I enjoyed that movie a lot (and no, I'm not ashamed I like that movie) so I recommend the readers to check it out. Now I have to find Swordsman I and II... They rock. Period. Whether it means anything, they are my favourite martial arts movie. Anyway, time to delete my intermediate files...

hey, can you send me the direct link to the news? i want to save it ;) alolsen_at_uwaterloo.ca (I'm Andrea, the girl who talked.) Thanks for putting this on the net! P.S. sorry for stealing your thunder!
Awww...it's too bad you weren't in the shot. You were too short? You're not short! How tall are you anyway? You're at least 6ft, right? I know, I know--I should be doing work. Ok, back to work.
Ha ha, I was sitting down... !@$#%$#@#@! How come you don't even know how tall I am?!?!?!? Although 6ft is close... i'm 5'11"... and time for me to try to get into world of warcraft :P
