Christian is fierce

Tonight Dave, Jose and PK came over to watch PR finale. We went to Vege House after finding the restaurant we wanted to go originally was closed. We got pan fried bao, midnight intestine, brown sauce tofu with mushroom, pigeon wrap, and sauteed eggplant. I was surprised the midnight intestine was actually spicy. I always asked them to make it spicier but they never did. Tonight they finally made it the way we wanted. I think I liked this dish and the pigeon wrap the best. The eggplant was ok. The rest was on the bland side. This is normal because in Chinese vegetarian restaurants they usually don't use garlic or green onion. So sometimes the flavors feel like they miss a certain kick.

We came back to my place and Dave immediately went to test my doorbell. He's helping PK re-record the sound for his college film. While Jose and I watched AI, Dave and PK were busy figuring out the logistics on how it all should work. They had to set everything up correctly, from the doorbell, the mic, to the mixer, and the MacBook. After Dave got the application to work properly, they got to "act" by pressing the doorbell and record it at the same time. Several takes later, the job was done. Dave showed us the film segment with the sound in sync. It looked great. And just in time the PR finale was about to begin too.

The show was less dramatic than previous seasons' finale. There was no accusations or surprise challenges. I thought Jillian's collection was consistent, stylish, but not very exciting. Rami's was a little uneven, the color choices were odd, but a few very beautiful strong pieces. Christian's work was one Wow after another. It was emotional, fresh, consistent, edgy, and fun. Yes he's that fierce. I was rooting for him.

So excited that he won. He deserved it. Bummer I won't have a show to watch on Wednesday night now :(
