The newer attraction I went to see this time was the House of the Future. I was a little unimpressed. It’s not really “House of the Future“. It’s more like “House of the Now-if-you-have-a-lot-of-money-to-spare-and-don’t-mind-the-electricity-costs“. There were just a couple innovative ways to use technology we already have now and a mass abundance of the same concepts that filled the home making electricity the blinding cost in my eyes.

This is the living room with a nice glass screen that reflects everything.

And this is the back. <: / Seems a little unnecessary to me.

This is the kitchen. There really wasn’t much innovation for the kitchen specifically. Just a bunch of older model HP Touchsmarts all over the place. I wouldn’t mind having one, but two in the same kitchen? @_@

And yes, a lot of digital photo frames EVERYWHERE. This was on the piano. I suspect they hid all the cords inside the piano. Their solution for the home was “if there is an empty space, put a digital photo frame there” and “cover the walls with huge monitors that displayed photos of real art pieces”.

Supposedly the fun part of the home for entertaining guests.

This might be the only thing I actually wanted to steal from the house. I like that the Yamahas keep the silhouette of the cello. There are lots of electric celli out there that just look like a stick. Ick.

This was the girl’s room. I think the image is project from behind and the guy there said that the screens are all controlled from the girl’s laptop so she can customize it herself. That’s kind of cool. I know how I would fill up my media wallpaper…(full sized pictures of Takeshi Kaneshiro, Keanu Reeves, and Audrey Hepburn)

Who needs all those tiny digital photo frames when you have this anyway? She also had a “mirror” which was actually a video from a camera pointed at you when you stand in front of the “mirror” and you could try on digital outfits…that’s a pretty neat idea.

A boy’s room, Peter Pan themed. This hired guy had to read the Peter Pan story over and over again while the images in the “window” and on the pirate ship sail behind him changed.

I tried out the Microsoft surface. There were a bunch there too. Sometimes it wasn’t so responsive.

Here I am messing around with it.

A dining table of four Surfaces. At one point they were all showing a video of a rock pond that rippled when you touched the surface of the “water”.

The conclusion of this home is that it would be futuristic and cool if all this was totally normal for every home to have. Like, if the prices were brought down ridiculously low and you could find all this in every home.

This was on the second floor, out of the Home of the Future. We have a couple of these at every mall now.

Play Pirates of the Caribbean Online! I ran around yelling “I’m stuck at Disneyland!” and people came up to me and said “Do you need help?” People actually play this game?!

Segway training. Funny to watch.

This is the new monorail being tested out, the Mark VII. It will officially start next Spring. It’s a cool blue metallic color with purplish tinted windows. The Mark V has been working since 1986. Don’t ask me what the Mark VI is.

Here it is running. Zoooooom.

I love the Disneyland handstamp. It smells like lemons. I keep smelling it like it’s crack. And that says “TIGGER” for your information.

That said, we managed to get a Disneyland trip together! Bryan, Julie, Brandon, Paco, Henry and me.

Soooo cute! Brandon looks a little unwilling though….jK <: P

So fast my tongue is sticking out.

hahaha.

My hat is stuck! Henry’s idea.

Is it just me or do other people like to take pictures of people shooting stuff?

Everyone has something to say. Brandon tried to cover my eyes! No waai!

This is so awesome I wish this show was up when I was little. The trainer was an asian with an Ewan McGreggor accent. Totally weird but cool at the same time. I wish I got a closer look at him…

Once you guys become king, make sure I get to be a princess of the castle mmkay?

Stitch!

Y SO SRS?

I’m just glad she’s not super asian. She actually kind of looks like Kelly Hu right? Anyway, I don’t think I’ll have time to audition for this…and I might not be in the country anyway. I will have to keep my eye out for these fairies when I go to Disneyland next.

Anyway, through this, I discovered the awesomeness that is their fairy creator site! I highly recommend taking 15 minutes out of your day to do something cute and silly and create a fairy. Who cares if the fairy is a female and you happen to be a guy. Connect with your feminine side!

I swear I looked like this when I was younger. But with a longer face.

You can decorate your room. Notice the pan flute on the wall and the curtain on the right hiding my stuff. I love hanging dividers, you have no idea! They have a name generator and I clicked random a couple times and then scrolled through names around it. I’m very pleased with Echo. It’s actually a very pretty name! I’m going to have to remember this. But isn’t the mythology of Echo kind of sad? Oh well. haha. I hope they still have this name generator when I have a kid…so using it for ideas!

To see my complete homepage, here is the link. It’s like myspace for virtual fairies!. Apparently they are going to make it an MMO!

Cheshire cat! My cheeks hurt smiling this much…and it doesn’t even look like that big of a smile!

How can you not smile after seeing this mug? Picked this baby up at Disneyland. If you go to the right store, not the emporium, but the store that specifically has mugs and a coffee store in it, you get a free cup of coffee or hot chocolate with a purchase of a mug.

I was actually at the Emporium buying something, and the girl in front of me was buying a mug that could be found at the other store, and I was really disappointed that the cashier didn’t tell her she could get a free cup of coffee is she just walked across main street and bought it there. I was buying a different mug that you can’t buy at the free coffee place, and I casually told him

“It’s too bad they don’t sell this mug at the other store, because you get free coffee if you buy over there”

and the cashier man said

“oh really? I didn’t know that. That’s pretty cool”

I don’t even think he thought to think “oh, man, I should have told that lady just now then”

bleh.
