I reported for jury service yesterday to the Los Angeles Metropolitan Court, and had a flashback to 9th grade Health Class. There were the following:

1) Many bored-looking people of various ethnicities
2) A vending machine that didn’t work. (I was very annoyed as the machine ate my dollar. Don’t you hate when that happens?)
3) A Teacher…er… An Administrator who gives an introduction to “Being A Juror.”
And…last but not least
4) THE VIDEO. Yes, a video about the “Benefits of being a Juror,” complete with cheesy music, oddly cut scenes, and the jurors who raved about how “Being a juror was one of the best experiences of my life.”

For a moment, I actually wanted to be a juror. Sike. Just kidding. I postponed my duties until February because there were about 3 Asian-Americans in the room, and I would’ve definitely gotten chosen for trial. ‘Cause you know… they probably want to keep it diverse.

And check out this video from South Korean Pop Sensation, BOA, who is making her US Debut with her dance single, “Eat You Up.” Apparently, she’s also working with the producer Darkchild, as well as FloRida. It’s a pretty cool video.
