In other news, I’ve grown tired of blogging. I’ll try to be more consistent with a simpler approach. If you have a tumblr account, add me prease!

And just a fair warning, Jesse’s wink is as good as murder.

Remembering PKJustin from David Liu on Vimeo.

Justin has passed away and of course there is brokenness in my heart but underneath that deep bitter pain I feel a kind of sweetness. What is this sweetness? I believe it is the feeling of an unending love between a mother and a son. — Mrs. Chang

This is a documentary made by my roommate Dave in memory of Justin Chang. I didn’t know Justin very well and only met him on a few occasions, but Justin was the kind of guy where his reputation was known as “legendary.” I remember he IM’d me randomly once to talk about fantasy baseball. He wanted to take all the Red Sox players and it just so happened that I had a few. We had never met prior to that day.

Every time I see this film, especially when his parents talk about their son, it brings me to tears. Despite their loss they were so certain that Justin was taken under God’s sovereignty. That he lived a life that was made “alive in Christ.” He left a legacy that all people should want to leave when they pass on. Not because they tried to, but because they lived their lives as people who were madly in love with Christ.

Tear it up in heaven bro.

Jon and I were having a pretty deep conversation but he was in a rush cause he needed to get home. So we’re driving back to his car talking and I tell him, “Hey, you should get going cause there’s a car behind us.” He gets out of the car and looks at me with the door open and concludes with his final thoughts:

“Yeah, but what I’m saying is, we need to play WOW.”

No we were not talking about WOW, or anything that involved video games for that matter. Way to kill it Jon.

This video is dedicated to the premiere of Discovery Channel’s new series, LIFE. And because Jesse thought the pictures were photoshopped. Here it is, in all its glory Jesse. Listen about a second in…

This might tip the scales towards the bad side, but I also had a nightmare that I couldn’t wake up from. I know this, because I was asleep for 9 hours but felt like crap in the morning.

Should have at least adjusted the white balance, but I was too lazy. Raw footage of raw awesomeness.

Dusted off the camera and wanted to do something new (to me that is).

In retrospect or retrophotoshopspect, I could have taken these even further, but you get the idea. On another note, Shaina’s documentary on Paul de Partee was excellent! By far the best today. Great job holding it down during the Q&A too!
