Ellen D- My Inspiration

I always say that Ellen DeGeneres is my favorite lesbian. She's hilarious and if you don't think so, you just haven't watched her show before. I don't do the whole TV thing, but I do youtube some clips of her show.

My very favorite thing that she does on the show are celebrity pranks where she puts an ear piece into a celeb's ear, sends them somewhere, and they have to say everything that Ellen tells them to say. It's hilarious. This one is my favorite: Dennis Quaid<-- it's a link.

But that isn't the point of my post. There is another section that she does that is called "What's Wrong With These Photos Photos". Here's a little sample: Hilarious Photos

I now have a new goal in life: to take a picture that will be worthy of Ellen's "What's wrong with these photos photos" section of her show. In hopes that I did have something, I started going through all my old photos. I started with just photos from Hong Kong because I figured there would be some weird Chinese-English translation that would be worthy of her show. Unfortunately I couldn't find any.

That's okay. Instead, I looked through the pictures that I took from my last trip to Hong Kong (which was about 5,000), and I went through and picked out a few that I just wanted to comment on. Some are funny, but some are just interesting. Most of the time when I read blogs, I just look at the pictures because I think the writing is boring, but then on my own blog I don't put any pictures up. This is the time for me to make up for that.

Sorry if they're really not that exciting to you, but I like the story behind most these pictures.


First of all, who would want to eat this? And second, why was it on my plate? I don't even remember this or if I ate it or not, but it's just terrifying. Lot of people in Hong Kong like it though.

Next:


I guess Hong Kong is getting so overpopulated that they are starting to cut their buildings a little too close to nature. This is a very large tree that my father is standing next to, but all that behind him are the tree's roots. Neat.

Now, these next two pictures, I actually thought about sending to Ellen:


This is my father in the airport carrying my mother's blue flowered bag. I thought that it looked a bit fruity, but making fun of someone's appearance saying that it look a little homosexual didn't seem appropriate to send into The Ellen Show considering she is a homosexual herself.


This one I actually thought would make it on her show. Unfortunately, she already had one just like it.


What does "No Hawking" mean? I could look up the Chinese, but I choose to be confused.


Let's face it, I'm not the best artist in the world. When I was in Kindergarten, my sister drew a frog for me for my homework. It looked good, but not believable that a Kindergarten kid drew it. I flat out lied to my teacher and said that I drew it.

Still feel bad about that.

But at Hong Kong Disney, when I thought I was waiting in line for a ride, I was really in line for a drawing class. I drew the Pooh bear and I am so proud of it. The entire presentation was even in Cantonese, so that makes me extra proud. Had to put it up.

Whenever my family stays in a hotel, we love to jump on the bed. My father and I decided to take some pictures:


Me


My father trying to imitate me. Not as graceful, but he did get more air!

Next,
when we were in Hong Kong Disney, we went on several rides where they took pictures at the end. My father always likes to think of new ways to pose for each of the pictures. We've done the look bored, orange peel face, chatting on the cell phone, you name it, we did it.

In these next two photos, we planned on doing the "I'm terrified of this ride" face. Either my parents didn't know where the camera was, they didn't remember, or they wanted me to look like the fool. Well, I guess the succeeded.


Space Mountain Terror


And then there is the terrifying Winni the Pooh Bear ride.

Lastly, there really is something wrong between these two photos. Try to see if you can guess:



You got it?

Well, let me give you a hint: the guy massaging my father's feet is not wearing a mask, however the guy massaging my feet is! What! What's up with that! I do not have nasty feet and they are definitely not as nasty as my fathers!

I was offended when I came across this picture.

That's all for now. Hopefully someday I will be able to send in a picture to Ellen and she will put it in her show. That would just make my day. In the mean time, I guess I will just have to carry my camera around everywhere and look for the perfect opportunity!
