We just launched the new Project Runway site and it's looking good!

This is what I've been working on during the past couple off weeks. I've been so busy that my online and offline social life has dwindled down to checking my email and Facebook messages and going to the gym.

Even though we all stayed until almost 11pm this time, it still beats last season when we all stayed until 5am! Next time, maybe we'll shoot for 9pm? Anyway, I'm really happy with how the site turned out. My skills in front-end development has grown a lot during the past year.

I lost 5 pounds in one week and you can too! Follow my schedule for a full-proof way of losing weight without even trying:

1. Get to work at around 9:30am and work non-stop. Do not break for lunch.
2. Leave work around 8pm and go home for a short rest
3. Eat something light so you won't be too full and go straight to the gym
4. Shower
Go back to work from 11:30pm to 3am.
5. Repeat

By the way, yes, I get the inside scoop on Project Runway, not that I care too much. :)

I think I'm ready for a vacation.

I'll be back to my regular blogging schedule soon.

After a long and grueling week of work, I was able to enjoy my Thursday night at The Verizon VIP Tour starring Natasha Bedingfield with special guests The Veronicas and Kate Voegele at The Fillmore. San Francisco was the last stop for their tour, so that's something to feel special about.

From the way they all talked, all the girls seemed really sweet and down-to-earth. The concert opened with Kate Voegele with the crowd still mellow, just enjoying the music.

Next up was The Veronicas. The crowd was more pumped during their performance. I wanted to backhand Fat Asian Guy and Thick Asian Girl. They were both pushing their way towards the front without even an excuse me. TAG got past me but I wouldn't budge for FAG. Not only were they rude but they also acted like 14-year-old girls. I heard FAT scream, "Oh my god! Lisa [from The Veronicas] looked at me!" Uh, no, she wasn't looking at you - she was looking at the general public, fool!

Finally, Natasha Bedingfield was up. The crowd was really hyped by then. Two White Girls saw an opening near me and politely asked if they could get through and I gladly helped them through. That's what happens when you're courteous. Anyway, The crowd was really hyped up, and though I wasn't a real fanatic like the people around me I hyped myself up as well.

One cool performance was when Natasha called out the winner of a contest she and Verizon did. The winner, Samantha from New York, had a duet with Natasha, performing to Pocketful of Sunshine. Samantha was shy at first, but she eventually let loose. Natasha also sang Madonna's Ray of Light, which was a fun surprise. And of course, the last song was Unwritten.

After seeing Natasha Bedingfield perform and listening to her lyrics, I am now a fan. Her lyrics are just so inspirational.

Unwritten
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Freckles
'cause a face without freckles is like a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are

Pocketful of Sunshine
The sun is on my side.
I take it for a ride.
I smile up to the sky.
I know I'll be all right.
I know I'll be all right.

A lot of people are scared to travel alone. That sucks. They're all missing out. How else can you do everything that you want to do instead of what other people want to do? I'm not saying I don't enjoy other people's company, but I'm just so much more productive when I travel alone. You guys should try it. Yelp is pretty much all you need nowadays when traveling in the US, as long as you know how to find things on that site. Thanks to Yelp, I started and closed my day with two of the best meals I've had this month. I love mac n cheese.
