  • Saw "Barbershop 2" and it was really funny.  Parts of it sort of dragged, but only to lead into more entertaining parts.  Cedric is really good in the movie.  I really liked how it was an introduction of issues of urban sprawl, gentrification, and big business vs. small business.


    Pilipino Youth Coalition meeting went smoothly, although it started late.  Most of it was kick-it time, but the Filipino Fiesta 2004 Kick-Off: Mahalaya sounds like it is going to go well.  Mahalaya means "love and freedom" and it is a fashion show, talent showcase, and dance going to be held at the Rizal Community Center on February 20, 2004 from 7:00 pm to 12:00 am.  After the meeting I was introduced to the wonderful show of Michael Moore, called "The Awful Truth."  Now that was a show made to make a statement.


    I asked Floridette to the formal.  She couldn't respond yet, just said that she would get back to me.  As busy as she is, who knows what her final answer will be.  I think I can have fun with her though.  My last few formals weren't all that.  Trying to turn that around again, so I'll keep my fingers crossed.
