I’m happy that u were into each of the project..Each of them really has a specific unique and the beauty inside it..I wish we can have another creative project like this. ^^ I think this might be the only class that I enjoy studying, involving, hanging out, playing around like this. I love our class,love my professors, love my classmates..^^
Shieeeeetttttt. I just want to say that our class is fucking DOPE. Let me say that again with more emphasis, FUCKING DOPE!!! Marshall, props to you for assigning this project, because now I see a lot of my peeps in this class entirely different in a new way. Cause honestly, there are the people that always express their opinions and show their character, and theirs others where I’m like Wassup? What’s going on with you?Shit say something, it’s like you don’t even exist in the class. But ever since this week started, I admit to say that all yall prove me wrong. Every single person and I mean EVERY, Yeah I’m talking about you too, brought something unique to the table whether is was a demon story, film, or spoken word. This whole entire class spiritually took a piece from themselves and together, brought life into not only this course, but into the path toward their shining futures. A lot of yall are not aliens or dinosaurs anymore in my eyes, yall fucking exist! I just needed the right telescope to finally see it, and this creative project was the perfect channel to amaze me as if I was an astronomer who discovered a new shining far away star.
To all the demon stories, sorry I came in late and not had my own personal time to read them, but yall are the creative storytellers and drawers. Yong, I feel you, language is really important. You can’t live life without this beautiful gift, it makes me feel sorry for people who are mute. Kevin interesting plot, and no one can steal your imaginative ideas like that medallion. To my other brother Kevin, I don’t know why you picked a German accent to the character, but I did nazi it as a satirical insult. Ya Digg? Lynette “ate” aka my older sister, I could imagine how you felt first coming to the U.S. lost in the airport, where in America there a lot of filipinos with lost identities. Being lost when you first landed, showed some kind of interesting symbolism in your story. Joey, bro, I don’t need to say much about you mann. Yall already know. You’ve been running your shit ever since I first met you in spring quarter, always involved mann. We both just need to know sometimes we need to do our school business as well, even though a lot of the events we volunteer in, most of the time are important. MUch love spiritual brother. Shane, good shit mann, I can tell your demon story took a lot of effort to be put together. Always on top of your shit, and I’m just curious, why is this the second time you had input somewhat of a person hanging themselves to death?hahaha. Don’t be HANGING around in the wrong places bro. hahaha, naw I’m just playing with ya. Karissa, beautifully done with the animation and the presentation. I don’t know how it is in your country, but America is a melting pot filled with many different ethnicities and cultures, and sometimes a lot of these races may feel like we’re actually being burned or boiled in this melting pot due to many racial remarks/stereotypes and/or oppressing injustices they have endured in this country. But don’t mean to be pessimistic, hahaha, I just wanted to state the struggles of minorities(such a terrible word) in America. And by the way, Panda Express is the Americanized chinese food restaurant, it’s like how Taco Bell is to Mexicans. haha I know some other great legit chinese food restaurants around my area, where the fortune cookie is actually worth a fortune, and also where it is fortunate to be in a forreal Chinese restaurant, with real chinese people actually making and serving the food, fortunately. haha, I’m just going nuts with these words, but unfortunately, haha naw Im Playin. I’m done. Fatima, you’ve always been the same in a good way. Ya hear me, the same. hahaha. At this moment you probably giggling to yourself right now. I’m just messin wit you, well loved your story, even though you didn’t finish it. hahahaha. Well, I liked how you saw the Philippines ugly at first arrival, but now beautiful after the second time. Nice how you have beauty and ugliness put into one, kinda like how your demon story is. hahahaha. I’m just teasing you again girl. But, on the real, it showed how much you changed overtime to realize that something so dear to us can maybe be ugly at first, but really beautiful because it is the soil where our beginning roots have lead to our own existence. We may have came from a NOW dirty ugly looking tree with bad physical traits, but we are still clean and beautiful rich-looking apples. And no matter what, we can never forget that.
Bryan and Lareeze, props to you guys for doing a video about Asian Stereotypes. A lot of them can be fucked up sometimes, but I liked how there was humor added to the video, making these terrible negative views into a positive way at looking at it. It may get Asians self-conscious or mad, but you guys pointed them out, brought awareness to the class, and also made them laugh. Much Love. Wassup Julianna, I know your film is what I’m doing my analysis paper on, so I’m gonna wait till I then how I felt about it. But, to add a little something, you and Julie made the perfect video about how we should treat our parents properly. Good choice of music, and let me say for now, “Work it out” worked out great. Victor, everyone can tell that your video took an extra long time to make. I like how you incorporated real people expressing their deep truest feelings about themselves, it made the entire film even more powerful. Marvin, good shit on the spoken word bro, and Joey excellent job on the filming and editing. I love the many different camera shots and props used such as the question mark. Lowell, I’m thinking I spelled your name wrong bro, but if I did my bad. Loved the film, picture, music, and transitions. Good job mann, it’s always about family. While watching your film, it made me think about my family, and how we should be even closer with one another. I fuckin love our people mann.
Francis, you did well after all mann, you was trippin just a lil bit, but how can you possibly think that you may mess up on a spoken word when its about your mother? Come on bro, its Mama. hahaha. but, you did good job mann, way to give a shot out to the mothers. Ariel Joy, always doing her thang when she does a spoken word. It gave me a picture of an Asian women-like Shihan with a blackayellow rage. hahaha. Sumthin like that, hahaha, well good shit as always. Justin, representing the dj/scratchers up there. hahaha naw im playin mann. Was feelin it throughout, but I want to ask you a question about something. If you have read this, come talk to me bro. Mariel, R.I.P. to Archie. I can’t imagine how it is to lose a good friend at such a young age. I can tell you really learned a lot through this tragedy. It changed your life and made you an even stronger person, and I believe Archie is somewhere silent where there is no pain at all. If he was still here, he would be so proud of you for being strong and doin your thang. Especially when you were all comfortable working the floor all of a sudden. hahahaha. Good shit. It surprised me. Khang, motherfucka. Loved your piece mann. I’m glad that I know at least some knowledge about what you love to get high from physically and mentally. hahaha. Motherfucka, crazy ass backflip mann, you looked like robin from teen titans or sumthing, all hero-like. Overall, sick spoken word piece, and great talents bro. Keep on doing what you love doin, same thing goes to you Anh. Stick with the martial arts, if it makes you happy. it’s all good. If it may not make a a lot of money, it don’t matter at all. Sometimes, the richest person ain’t necessarily the person with dough. Zan the mann, you surprised me mann. Coming out all hard on the Eminem beat, gave me a flashback when I first saw 8 mile mann. hahahaha. You really showed another side of yourself yesterday mann. You should send me your lyrics so I can get a better understanding of what your message was on. Uyen, I loved your spoken word piece. I loved how you had the slideshow going along while you were presenting. Your piece was really powerful, and when you said you cried after reading “Catfish and Mandala,” that hit me really hard toward the heart. I love how you have so much pride for Vietnam, Uyen, you are really deep. hahaha. Once again loved it entirely, and way to represent the 49ers. hahaha. Thaison, good shit brother. A straight A student can be a killer in the streets, fuckin loved that. Cause I could relate to that sometimes, because I’m an educated nut, smart from the books but also smart from the streets. Ya Dig? Marlo says he’s hella proud of you for being in De Anza, Let’s keep them grades steady, instead of picking up a machete. Ya Feel Me? Albert, I guess you fuckin know wassup about Asian life. hahaha. I loved how you kept it real mann, real passionate throughout. Big ups to you bro. Patrick, your piece was fucking ill. You hella surprised me with your emotions and change of dynamics. “When I first touched your slender white body.” hahaha, that was ill mann, and your shirt was hella sick. Joey, with your Nas-like sounding voice. hahaha. Just messin wit ya mann, but I honestly feel ya!!! I love dreamin, and sometimes it may get so addicting, I may just want to sleep for whole entire day sometimes. haha. But most definitely, brought a different style of spoken word to the class, and I imagine like John Lennon sometimes, dreaming for a heaven-like world. David, honestly the title was a little fruity hahaha, literally. But it fucking doesn’t matter. I liked how you spoke about diversity in America; about how a lot of many different races and cultures here are oppressed. Like how you not only spoke on behalf of AAPI, but other races as well. Power to the People bro! Power to the People! Hamlin was handlin. All quiet in class then showed his true colors all of a sudden. “This Love, this color.” I love how you showed pride and represented filipinos to the fullest. Also surprised the class with your moves mann, sick,sick. Like I said before, I fuckin love our people.
I hope I’m not missing anyone, but if I am, I’m terribly sorry. Oh shit, cherry, we need to see your demon story. Oh yeah, Jeanelle, almost forgot. Beautiful pictures and I loved your story; incorporating, “Where the wild things are,” really creative with it. Also it made feel a little funny when I was reading your mother’s dialogue with the filipino accent.hahaha. Good job with that girl.
Once again, I got nothing else more to say, but OUR CLASS IS FUCKING DOPE!!!! I INDEED SAY IT ONE MORE TIME, FUCKING DOPE!!! AND YEAH I’M TALKING ABOUT YOU AS WELL, FUCKING DOPE. YA DIG?!!!!!!!!!!!
