Excited
A week or two ago I was fortunate enough to go to the 26th Annual San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival (Okay, seriously, when the acronym is longer than most English words, that is when you need you come up with a snappier name.) The Center for Asian American Media had an interactive display where people could talk into a MacBook Pro and give their thoughts about San Francisco, Asian media and everything in between. They recently released the produced video, and what do you know, I make a cameo appearance along with Goh Nakamura. You’ll be able to tell it’s me by my fat face trying to say snarky things about hipsters.
(Thanks for the heads-up, Sylvia)

Cat_D, I've lived in the Bay Area all my life. And yes, this is my first SFIAFF, no lie.
I'll be totally honest; I have never really done anything "Asian" until I started 8Asians.com, if you don't count the mostly Asian co-ed fraternity I was in during college. That being said, I totally had a positive experience from going to the film festival.

I can't believe this is Ernie's first SFIAAFF! How long have you been in the Bay Area?

Ernie,
Seriously, this was your first time at SFIAAFF ???
BTW - you do not have a fat face - I think maybe back in 2004... *I* on the other hand, well, that is another story...
