"This Too Shall Pass" by OK Go

Who remember's the board game Mouse Trap? I loved that game! Looking back now, I don't think I ever played the actual game. I was one of those ADD kids who just skipped the game to see the mouse trap do it magic.

Anyways, I came across the new OK Go video, "This Too Shall Pass" directed by James Frost featuring a gigantic "mouse trap" like contraption. You gotta see it the entire 4 minute one-take sequence.

Carnival: Choreographers Ball at Avalon

[Wednesday, February 24th] For 11 years Carnival: Choreographers Ball has been a monthly showcase spotlighting the dance industry's top choreographers and dancers. I use to wish I could perform there... You never know maybe I'll make a come back. HAHA Carnival has recently partnered up with World of Dance to upgraded from the Key Club to their new home at Avalon. Although, I've always wanted to go, this was actually my first time! Plus, I had to come out to support Dave & Myron's (WOD | 21XL) new venture with Carnival.

I rolled up rockin' my new Clae: Thompsons... So fresh and so clean!

The only reason why I hate going to Avalon is because they rape you for $20 to park in their lot. SMH! Damn, $20 to park on a Wednesday!? Anyways, I meet up with Shaun Evaristo & Aimee (Movement Lifestyle) before heading in. Thanks to my partner (in life), Myron Marten for taking care of us as always.
When I walked in, I felt like I just stepped foot on the set of "You Got Served"! I loved it! The energy was incredible and to see everyone coming together for the love of dance was amazing. It made me miss dancing... =(
We got to enjoy the awesome show from the VIP balcony. Shout out to the fellas from Ring Masters (ABDC) reppin' Brooklyn because they put on the craziest and most entertaining performance. I can't find it on YouTube, but if I do I'll repost it! Sh*t was straight bananas!
Crackin'!
Harajuku Girl, Jenny Kita aka "Angel"
Welcome back from Europe JD (right)! He'll be performing at the Oscars this Sunday along with LXD... I can't wait to see that!
Mami (We Are Heroes) x Dashaun (Vogue Evolution)
World of Dance Owners: Dave Gonzales x Myron Marten
Japan is in the building! Rino (Beat Freaks) x Mami... HAHA!
Mink (Crooks) x Taryn aka TK (RVCA)
Check out Teresa Espinosa (Beat Freaks) gettin' down in the open cypher. FYI: She's coming over to cook Spaghetti this Sunday for our Oscar's party. Who wants to come over?
I ended the night at Kitchen 24 choppin' down with Jenny Kita, Shaun Evaristo, and Aimee.
It was great to be surrounded by so many talented individuals. I'll be at the next Carnival so I'll see you there! Fun times!

sosupervietnamesespot!

[Wednesday, February 24th] Samantha aka Sammie aka Sosupersam brought Mark Marcel and I to her Vietnamese spot in Silverlake, Pho Cafe. They ended up treating me out for my graduation... Aww! 143! Lets not get "murked". HAHA!

Since Sammie lives just a few minutes away, we're gonna start exploring the Silverlake/Echo Park area for some hidden gems. Plus, we need to have more of these creative brainstorming sessions. Its ironic because the entire time we were all discussing what our future plans were. Then I opened up my fortune cookie...

Thank you!

Oh yeah, the Vietnamese food at Pho Cafe was good too! I didn't try the pho but I did have vermicelli noodles with BBQ pork, which I loved! Good pick Sam!

ABDC Week 6

[Tuesday, February 23rd] I was back at Warner Bros. studio for another taping of MTV's America's Best Dance Crew along with Pacific Rim Video and DanceTag.tv. Manny Pacquaio was actually on set enjoying the show as well. So random, but he love's Jamba Juice. HAHA. A few of us headed to Tofu House afterwards for a late night dinner before heading home. See you guys all on Tuesday for Week 6.
