This picture will be in Forbes magazine one day.

Young EO
Met up with a bunch of friends that all are starting or have started their own businesses. Everyone is relatively new (within 1-2 years of starting their business) to the CEO/entrepreneur lifestyle. Regardless of what industry or years of experience, everyone has the same passion for life and for creating something exciting/fun/revolutionary so it is bound to be a great group.

We have yet to come up with a name, but so far my suggestions were ONE – Organization of New Entrepreneurs or CEO – Creative Entr Org.

Film
Landed a non-union butterfinger commercial that we are going to rehearse for tonight. We are planning on shooting it on Sunday. The other “Borat” project wants to shoot on Sunday too. Hopefully I can fit both in.

Wushu
Went to LA Wushu on Monday and did 2 half sections and worked on some twists and aerial twists. I am still a little sick and very lethargic I will admit, but I am still forcing myself to practice. I need to practice spear and straightsword a little more. I also need to refine my third and fourth section of longfist. I am still hitting all my nandu/jumps solid.

Clothing
Got prototype2 back. We spent a lot of time and money on this one and it still was not perfect. There is a lot of value in having CLEAR and SPECIFIC communication skills because I guess if what we wanted translated better we wouldnt have to be requesting a THIRD prototype. We are going to try to blend some features from both the 1st and 2nd proto and then hopefully we should be golden.

Goal is to have this done and reach out to manufacturers within a month.

WushuKicks
Due to me finally opening my eyes to the potential that is WushuKicks and inspiration/reminders from others around me, WushuKicks is finally getting a planned site revamp. This is also targeted to be finished within a month although I think this goal is pushing it, but will heavily depend on my timing with the tea site completion.

Another goal is to have merchant account set up before the end of the month.

Tea
Production is completed. It should be shipped out to me sometime this week. Site is 2/3 ready. Need to take product pictures once the tins arrive. Also came up with a list of keywords to target.

Goal is to finish site and have model product pics done within the month.

Miss Independent

Misc
Sat went out to Pasadena and got pretty hammered off Svedka. For some reason it was extremely nasty, but normally its not that bad. Ended up singing ‘Miss Independent’ in a parking lot after one drink too many.

Sun. went to Michelle Lee’s bday with Eliver and hooked up with some homies at her shindig at library bar- alex, amanda, matt b, li jing, sun nuo, john, and tamiko.

Wushu
Yesterday I had a happy hour at work so I got home a little late and I decided to just go for a little run. I decided to run to this park Alex told me about. Well, I found 2 different parks (none of which Alex was talking about), got lost, and ended up running almost 5 miles until I finally got home. It’s cool though. This way I made myself run more than I was planning on.

Clothing
Got samples for this special imprinting back. Chose the style, but deciding on the threading color now.

Tea
Got pricing quotes back. Need to submit an illustrator vector image before Monday morning. Still waiting on label proof. Getting irritated because I should have received this 1-2 weeks ago.

Film
Finished writing a nuts and bolts version of my plot outline.

Misc
Went out to Pasadena with Hue. Bumped into a friend from my business fraternity and the night turned out to be a blast.
