Well well, so it is now 2012. 2011 was an amazing year. I worked on so many cool projects like MTV EXIT and… (ahhhhh!) MTV World Stage. Working with Utt was super cool, and him leaving made me sad

But they say for every door that closes, another opens. And let’s just say the door that opened was pretty damn cool. Firstly, we have a new VJ, which meant a new co-host for me. Being socially awkward, I felt the stress of having to engage in close social interaction with someone I’d soon be spending everyday with. I met him and thank God, the awkward in “socially awkward” was nowhere to be found. Maybe because we are both part American, or it also could be that we are both part Asian, or well, simply because we both own white singlets. Either way, we get along and it has been (relatively) smooth sailing so far. But his interest in sports and my obvious lack of that has us on other ends of the world.

Might I add? Rich gives really good relationship advice. Who would have thought my new co-host and on- the-job best friend could enlighten me and give me insight on how to be a better-rounded human being. For starters, I have cut down on caffeine. That helps me sleep better.

The second best thing after having a new co-host was of course having a new show! What is a co-host for without a show right? Maybe to play chess with at lunch? Anyway, we have a new project on hand: The MTV Show! I am quite excited because I have never actually been on a real life show. I have filmed scenes of myself talking into a mic and talking to other people, but not actually a 30 minute show where I am, well… the host. How nerve-wrecking, exciting and crazy and wonderful 2012 will be!
