New York City is such a neat place. I m having a great time so much so that I barely have time to sleep! I d like to share some moments with you guys, and what better way to do it than in music montage?! Featuring: Twilight Techno by Dimrain47 For more updates from the city, follow my Tumblr and photos on Flickr!

Last Friday I had lunch with two of my favorite people: Steve + Zadi. It s always nice to catch up with them (and laugh as we watch a guy walk straight into a crotch-height gate with his crotch). Chatting with them made me miss our very epic summer, so I found some clips of us being silly while filming a t-shirt promo: [cross-posted on the EPIC FU blog]

This is Maggie. She came into Justine s and my life last Wednesday with her sister Winnie. If this doesn t make your insides all warm and squishy, then you suck at life. She started out super skittish and all I m going to hide under my bed mmkay? , but she s really warmed up to the idea of humans over the last week. Justine actually taught her to fetch today. It s crazy watching a kitten return to you with a wad of aluminum foil in her mouth. As for Winnie oh my lord, she s a freaking cuddle machine. I can t get enough of these KITTEHS! ahhhalskdfjalksdjl. More pictures here.

True story: Micro once stole a muffin from right under our editor Daniel s nose. In case you haven t been watching my updates on Twitter, I m spending the summer at Smashface, working on EPIC FU with the best of the LA new media scene: Steve Woolf, Zadi Diaz, Rick Rey, and Sarah Atwood. IT S AWESOME! Plus, I get to hang out with Sasha and Micro, the Smashface mascots, all day long.

I have lots of photos and videos to process from my trip! I have a few up on Flickr right there, but there are many left to post. My sister made an AWEEEEESOME stop-motion video using her photos. It s her very first video ever (can you believe it?!), so go tell her how fantastic she is! Japan Taiwan 2008 from Cindy Tsai on Vimeo. In other news, my college acceptance count is now 5 for 6. My first (and hopefully only) rejection came last week. One more month to wait until I can make a decision. I m so busy researching the programs at schools and planning campus visits. May is going to fly by. Basically I have a huge to-do list, including behind-the-scenes stuff here too, so hang tight!

My list should really be called: Annie lamenting the absence of small, furry pets in her childhood Check out the episode on it s original page here for full episode links and discussions.

In lieu of writing my papers This video makes me eligible now. More info on The Winnies can be found here: youarethewinner.org Oh man I haven t edited in such a while I m so rusty. All the compression settings have changed, etc. Everyone and everything is so fancy now! I love all the new [slightly cheesy] background music in iMovie too, haha.

Another DIY piece on JETSET! This time we went to Skylight Books to check out the zine scene. Comment on this video here.

Check it out, Rick and I did a DIY segment on making your own backdrop for JETSET Show. Yeah! Comment on this episode here.

Annie inspires Josh Leo's Vlogging Tee Technique. I heart vlogging.

Le grand booth tour. 7.5 mb, 01:20 minutes Featuring: Rockin the Suburbs by Ben Folds, my new buddy Ted, and various booth people. That night we partied at the House of Blues. Mission District played; there was much merry-making.

14.9 mb, 03:09 minutes Featuring: Freezepop Forever by Freezepop plus... Matt and Salvador! This one's long... but it's fun. Original plans were to go mini-golfing, but it was too cold outside, so we played in the arcade. I miss being a kid.

5.9 mb, 01:38 minutes Featuring: "World At Large" by Modest Mouse Several days ago Josh posted his first rant. I had similar thoughts and just wanted to add my 2 cents. Plus, I think he's really cute.

3.1 mb, 00:50 seconds Featuring "You're So Damn Hot" by a grrrreat band named OK Go. While in Arizona, we went to baby Dylan's 1st birthday party. First we had to stop by Target to buy a present. I haven't been in the toy section in ages. Crazy.

1.7 mb, 00:27 seconds A new video, featuring my awesome scraggly pottery. Well, I finally figured out why my stuff wasn't posting to ourmedia. My descriptions weren't long enough; they have to be at least 5 words long. Anyway, now everything is fixed and I don't have to worry about eating up bandwidth. PS. I really like Josh Leo's video blog. His stuff is good.

5.7 mb, 1:31 minutes This is a weak video summary of my trip. There were some good times but they were undocumented. I fail. Check this out for more about the Painted Ladies. It was worse on the ride home: the ENTIRE windshield and front grill were plastered.

3.2 mb, 0:54 seconds The shoe saga is finally over. I didn't mention ordering them for fear of jinxing it, but I have them now and the world is happy once again. I've been having trouble uploading to Ourmedia, but I'm just waiting it out. PS. Whoa, thanks!

1.4 mb, 0:20 seconds Music from freeplaymusic A true testament to my dorkiness (and lack of coordination). I'm wearing these.

It's short, it's not that exciting, but at least it's here. 1.1 mb, 0:34 minutes Just a little something something to satisfy the masses (hah, I kid). PS. I got an A on my paper! Hooray.
