I did. Lol R.I.P My first forum topic.

And actually I was in this two-part special called "Geek Love" (I believe). It took place during the NYCC speed dating site in 2011. They interviewed my cousin and had her as one of the contestants who was rejected because she didn't like the Star Wars guy.

I was the person standing next to her. I literally got 5 seconds of air time.

At least I could say I was on TV. (BTW speed-dating show was COMPLETELY RIGGED! FAKE COUPLE AND EVERYTHING!!!)

How about you?

Yeah, one day I saw a news camera filming during a festival.

I just walked by it, and looked at it, and the reporter...
Weird, Ik.
Looked even weirder when I saw my self on TV later that day...


I should have done something more creative.
There goes my 2 seconds of fame!!

I DJ'ed for awhile at Simons in Gainesville FL in the mid to late 90's. At the time it was known as one of the best dance clubs in the country.

School play that was eventually on accessvision. Meh. Kind of embarrassing actually, A surprising number of people saw it. I never really liked that kind of attention.

I've played on TV a few times, been on the news a few times as well though I wouldn't say any of it was particularly noteworthy.

Haha interesting moments.

I've also danced in the DJ Booth at some bar/dance place a few times. Rofl just regular dancing but it's cool when the DJ okays whatever you wanna hear. B)

And I've done a cheerleading performance in HS. I wasn't a cheerleader at all. Yet I was pretty good. Lol but a little embarrassing.

I remember when I made this fanart thing, it kinda circulated through facebook one day, and also on various manga sharing sites:



It was seriously the greatest moment of my life. But then i realized no one will probably ever know it was me who made it, *crays*

Also, I was known at my high school as being entertainingly creepy. For this haunted house thing, I was told to walk slowly back and forth in this dark hallway, with my hair covering my face, and making creepy sounds. From word of mouth, I was the most talked-about thing for the Haunted house, lol.

After reading through this I just now remembered the time in elementary school when there was a contest to win some circus tickets that had something to do with the Animaniacs. The news showed up to take pictures and I was one of the winners. I remember being upset because the Animaniacs showed up as well and Wakko kept giving me rabbit ears for the photos. So I suppose I was in the paper among the other winners. Nothing too interesting.

I thought the phrase was 5 minutes of fame. Then again, the population keeps growing so maybe that's why it's 2 seconds now

Technically it's 15 minutes of fame. =P Thank god if it is decreasing though. Some people get way too much attention.

Damn, I totally forget this one. There used to be an "Entertainment Tonight" type show in S. FL. called "PM Tonight" and they did a segment on my karate studio and we did a demo for them on some stage somewhere and they aired it. It was in the Palm Beach Post as well. My Mom has the pics hanging up in her condo, but I don't really remember it. I probably should cause I was like 8 or 9. Maybe I was just too nervous.
