oovret: Week 53
What do you typically purchase from Famima?
i used to always get the salmon hand rolls… they were AMAZING… but i think they’ve stopped making them :( so now i get spicy tuna musubi and occasionally salmon sushi.
Do you enjoy any other ballroom dances?
salsa!
What is your favorite Kogi menu item?
i’m not sure yet… haven’t tried enough things. i MIGHT have had an answer for you had the kogi truck not run out of food when I was in line the other night :(
Do you enjoy listening to “Run-DMC”?
can’t say that i’ve listened to a ton of their music.
Do earthquakes scare you?
not so much when they happen, but i used to lose sleep over thinking about when “the big one” was coming.

Ey, a song i actually have in my collection, that’s a first. Great cover (off course:P). But now I’m wondering, which David Archuleta are you opening for: this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Archuleta orrrrr this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Archuleta_(kickboxer) ?
May 26, 2009
I like how Kina tried to stop the poke by blocking it with her hand lol
May 26, 2009
Looooove It!! Great to see you smile while singing again, Kina.
May 26, 2009
Ahhhh, such a good song and wonderful cover! You sound sooo good in this one, and like mbot said, you’re smiling again while singing :)
Mama G making an appearance, we’re so lucky! :p
The ST meetups sound like so much fun, I don’t think I can make the NY one though, hopefully another time!
May 26, 2009
Wow! Awesome cover of one of my favorite John Mayer songs! You just made my week once more.

May 26, 2009
wow and i thought i liked this song BEFORE i heard you sing it :D
but ugh! i cant make the new york showww because I have my prom, and I could actually get into this one cuz its not 19+ :/
o well i know there will be a next time :)
May 26, 2009
uh, thank you Marlin :-D My question was, however, rhetorical… MamaG’s reputation is well known! but thanks for volunteering the info!
I sense that you may have a kind soul, be careful of a few of those online personalities… especially those grammar nazis!
May 26, 2009
I love John Mayer!! this was amazing! awesomeness to the max
May 26, 2009
Mama g in the background!!!!!!! :)
May 26, 2009
Great cover
May 27, 2009
I just wanted to say that Im so excited that we get to see u again in new york…cant wait!!!
Well I also wanted to tell you that me and my boyfriend love u soo much and we are planning to get married before he leaves to Afghan and I would love it if you sang at our wedding.
May 27, 2009
Ok, so first of all to Kina – I agree with you that this song is BEAUTIFUL! Yet another heart song for you to sing… I love it.
Secondly, I am working on Saturday, June 6th so I was originally thinking – bummer…. I won’t be able to make it to NYC for the concert on the 5th since I have to be at work so early…. But now I am rethinking this after finding out about the meet-up in Central Park and all. I am so tempted to go!! I don’t know what to do!!! I basically just need a place to stay in the city over night and I need to get the Saturday off of work.
So we shall see….. Maybe I will see you New Yorkers there! If not, my apologies, but I am sure I will be back soon enough.
<3 your Bostonian friend Jess
May 27, 2009
Psshh…Yo Miss Kina, David Archuletta should be opening for YOU. See you in NY…lets see if you remember me =)

oovret: Week 54
When you cover songs, do you look for guitar tabs or figure them out by ear?
How many street teamers are there, now?
On average, how many marriage proposals do you receive each week?
Do you enjoy listening to Herbie Hancock?
Are you ready for your song marathon?
June 1, 2009
If you can make it, Jess, let Kina know ASAP so she can bring your street team packet!!!!!
June 1, 2009
She may remember your face, but she’ll stress out if you make her try to remember your name!!! Be a swell guy and just tell her!! :)
June 1, 2009
You might have to wait until the new cd comes out :)
June 1, 2009
YAY!!! You made all those sleepless nights worth it :)
