FREE STUFF

I'M NOT JOKING!


here's what lockerz describes itself as

Lockerz is the place to go to buy the coolest stuff at the lowest prices, watch exclusive video, discover new music, play the hottest games, hang out with your friends - and get rewarded for just about EVERYTHING you do on the site.

Our mission is to be your daily habit, not a site for your parents or grandparents looking for their long-lost friends from Kindergarten.

One other thing you'll love about Lockerz are PTZ (or "Pointz"). PTZ are Lockerz' proprietary loyalty "currency" that you earn whenever you buy, watch, play, share, invite friends, or even just show up on Lockerz. Redeem PTZ at the PTZ Place for incredible prizes, great products and dream experiences.

Too Good to Be True? Why are we doing this? To thank you for joining early. To build a Lockerz community of cool, stylish, cutting-edge people who love to buy great brands. To give you a taste of how PTZ will work when we go live this fall. And to test out different prizes and PTZ levels. That’s key. This version of PTZ Place is a test. PTZ levels will change when the full Lockerz site launches.

Lockerz is set to launch sometime in the Fall 09. Members who sign up now will get to explore and help shape the site before the launch. We hope you'll join us.

poop on your face

A post I wrote on a forum of a video web site
it's called take180.com and it's just AMAZING!
challenges with awesome prices, videos of your choice and stories!

If you're wondering why poop on your face is the title, well there's a simple explanation. It's one of my favorite phrases to say, especially when it's super silent.

=====
Teacher: ok class you can start doing your homework so you wont have to bring the heavy textbooks home!

*Everyone silents does their work*

Lily(me whispering):....psstt... April!
April:...?
Lily:poop on your face!

*Everyone turns to look at me*

Lily:...what?
April: I SWEAR I DON'T KNOW HER!
Lily: but of course you do!

*Everyone starts to laugh*

Teacher: settle down class! continue working please! and you! be quiet Lily, or you'll end up outside of my class
=====

ah what a wonderful short story on how i use that phrase huh?

anyways, i'll start the introduction i guess.

i am lily, currently 16 and lives in Ontario.

i am one of those Banana you could say; Yellow on the outside and white on the inside. i was born in china, but immigrated with parents to Canada when i was in grade 3. i now have a horrible weird somewhat English somewhat Taiwanese accent when i speak Mandarin and my parents divorced 2 or 3 years ago. i have somewhat of a Taiwanese accent due to the fact that i watch way to many Taiwanese dramas... i turn to the online community for entertainment and dealing with my parents divorce, because i was close with both my parents. my dad was the one who kinda of broke away, he moved out and now enjoys his life with many other women. my mom being the traditional Chinese she is, is sobbing over this divorce every single day. (traditionally divorces don't even happen in china, but now more and more people are, yet my mom refuses to believe she lives in the year 2009). She not only doesn't want to go out to find another partner, she is driving me crazy by not allowing me to or lecturing me about how i need a stable job a house, finished university education, and many, many more. now you see why i choose to ignore her most of the time and surf online for interesting videos?

that's a bit about my personal life, so now on with the professional. i'm a full time high school student, no part time jobs or anything. yes, i'm lazy and random and weird, deal with it :) i started to get into photography in grade 8 because of my dad. i moved on in grade 10 because a few of my friends. we wanted to make a fun random video to make fun of one of our friend Patrick Ho. so we made fan club videos for him. They're uploaded on my youtube channel and "Patrick Ho Fan club" on Facebook. you guys should join the group :P no one's active there anymore >.< we got tired of making fun of him! D:
and my youtube channel's in my signature thing, along with my blog and web site.
now after we made the funny fan videos, i realized how fun it was and decided to use my ancient youtube account. i originally made it to watch videos, but at that time i only had dial up so the internet was way too slow for me to watch any videos online. thus i never touch youtube since. but now i have cable and i constantly upload new videos full of bundles of me!

i'd tell you more about me but i think this is already a bit too much :P

you know what they say! TMI TMI TMI!

Zac Efron in 17 again/vote!

In my media studies class we now have this Film Genres assignment. If i had my top choice, i would of picked either

• comedy,
• action,
• thriller,
• si-fi, or
• fantasy.

But i didn't not get first dibs so i was forced to pick out of the left overs,

• drama,
• documentary,
• crime,
• bollywood,
• family,
• historical,
• horror,
• martial arts,
• musical,
• war, and
• western.

i know i know, there's still good choices out of the left overs, but in a hurry, i picked family. part of this assignment actually requires us to go see a movie of the genre and staple our movie ticket to our report. and this means i get to see little Disney and Pixar films... yay me... can you tell how excited i am by my sarcasim?

what i'm actually trying to do is weasel my way out of seeing boring ones and go for PG rated comedies. After all, they are very family orientated. The latest one that's about to come out and caught my eye is none other than 17 Again. I've never really blogged about him or did anything obsessive, but i do love Zac Efron. Venessa Hugen's beautiful too, they make a great couple. I really don't understand why people say Zac's ugly or he sucks and all that. He might be a disney star and all, but so far he's been a great role model and stayed out of scandels. He's easy on the eyes and he's personality is just charmming during interviews. But to the piont, i'm hoping i can persuade my teacher to allow me to watch that movie for this assignment.

Here's a short summary of the movie provided by movienow.ca

What would you do if you got a second shot at life?

Class of 1989, Mike O'Donnell is a star on his high school basketball court with a college scout in the stands and a bright future in his grasp. But instead, he decides to throw it all away to share his life with his girlfriend Scarlett and the baby he just learned they are expecting.

Almost 20 years later, Mike's glory days are decidedly behind him. His marriage to Scarlett has fallen apart, he has been passed over for a promotion at work, his teenage kids think he is a loser, and he has been reduced to crashing with his high school nerd-turned-techno-billionaire best friend Ned.

But Mike is given another chance when he is miraculously transformed back to the age of 17. Unfortunately, Mike may look 17 again, but his thirtysomething outlook is totally uncool in the class of 2009. And in trying to recapture his best years, Mike could lose the best things that ever happened to him.

Here's the thrailer from youtube:

It looks really fun!

If the persuading thing don't work out with my teacher i think i'm just going to ask for a change in genres, and do something like martial arts or something exciting lol.

in other new, i entered in this Sanyo Xacti contest and i desperately need votes!

Here's the outline:

Anyways, i was surfing online again (as always), and i came across a funny picture of one of my fav band.

i found it extremely hilarious. and i must add, just in case you don't know the band Tokio Hotel, that the lead singer, Bill(the one on the right) is NOT gay. and Tom his identical twin brother on the left there, doesn't act black at all. yet their image contradict their personality. Just was something to laugh about for me :)

Also, Because of my friend Grace, I've found this group on facebook that does editing competitions every now and then. this prize usually is the picture you edited being put up as the group picture. The rules states that you can only edit pictures through www.picnik.com, to be fair to those who doesn't have the money to buy photoshop (or don't know how to download it illegally ;D). The group is called Edit Me Competition and this is their latest picture that is being edited:

And there were many good entries, but i had to add mine =) :

And here's Grace's =P :

and there were many other good ones such as:

And this:

The group seems pretty interesting at the time so I'll keep you guys posted. and remember to request your own youtube channel layout! please credit and subscribe to bilin825! it is much appreciated :D
