ANSWERED QUESTIONS 2

Okay, so here is the 2nd volume of the series of questions and answers people have been asking me on my Formspring.me... This time around, some of the questions were OUTRAGEOUS and SEXUAL, but entertaining! So much creepers and stalkerazzis... ahaha! I also added the VOL.1 answered questions under the question box on the right. Read on, and hopefully you'll find it funny or insightful... most of the things you want to know about me, I suppose! lol



These are in random order:

QUESTION: you're really cute ! have you ever thought of modeling? when can we expect your next photo shoot? i miss seeing photos of you here.
A: aww you're too sweet! No, I've never thought of modeling. For me, taking photos of myself is sorta an experiment to be more comfortable in my own skin and push my creativity... nothing related to modeling at all.

And I don't know when I'll do another self-shoot, I've been very busy lately with school and trying to get where I wanna be, perhaps when I have a break or when summer comes. For now, I just want to practice and shoot others instead of myself... but thank you for still coming by and viewing my blog! :D




Q: Hey Quan, how tall are you? Can you speak Viet, still?
A: Hi. I'm 5'8½" and yes I can still speak vietnamese, I speak vietnamese at home, and english at school, trying to preserve and balance!




Q: hey Quan. Can you please share with me the technical details of the camera you use. Like what brand, model and the focal length + aperture range. Thank you very much. I adore your emerging talent.
A: hello! thank you! yes. I use a Canon Powershot point-and-shoot camera for regular party pictures. Then I use a Canon Rebel DSLR for professional pictures, the lens I have for DSLR is the standard lens that came with the package, and I also bought this 50mm portrait lens for 80 bucks since I'm broke right now. But it all depends on your aesthetics and the vision that you want to bring to life. You don't need fancy equipments to make great art. When we are limited, we are forced to be even more creative.




Q: Excuse me, but looking at one of your jumping pictures I can't stop myself looking at your calves. They're huge and so muscular, do you work out in the gym or doother kind of sports? PS: go on with such a nice blog, I love every post concerning your hair
A: haha thank you! they're not that huge.
they're just more defined, you could say...
but yes, I run and jog at the gym.




Q: If you were coffee, how much cream would you like in you?
A: um... wow. lol. I don't know how to answer this question...
coffee is bitter, so I guess as much cream as naturally needed.




Q: Hi, I saw some of your pics in lookbook and some i see hair on your legs, and some not. Do you shave/wax your legs? Do you have any tips for guys who have hairy legs and want them gone? Thanks! You're my inspiration btw <3 :)
A: Hi. thank you for checking out my Look Book!
I have hairy legs, but not too hairy. I don't shave my legs at all, never have, never will. Maybe in some images you don't see it much because of the bright lighting, and far away view. Close up, you'll see it's moderately hairy.

I don't shave my legs, so I don't have much tips for getting rid of it, I think you can try to see the waxing and hair removal section at your local Target or any beauty store, it might work! good luck! :)




Q: where do u live? id love to just be a witness of your fabulous/glamorous life! Youre an inspiration <3
A: THANK YOU!!! your comment/statement means A LOT to me. I'm all about being glamourous without money, without bad intentions. Only 1 intention, it's to inspire others to celebrate their own life! I live for the priceless things like getting together with my friends having art parties, doing photo-shoots, designing, just creating, you know? Expressive is never excessive!
I live in the east coast, finishing up school here in North Carolina, planning to move to New York soon after, since my best friends live in San Francisco and New York, so I always visit both cities all the time!




Q: I have a big cock. I'm hot. Do you want to be my sex slave?
A: (⊙ˍ⊙)!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! WHY ME?!?!




Q: what qualities do you look for in a partner?
A: independent, ambitious, articulate, understanding, a decent trustworthy guy would be fine with me, I look for a connection, something we can build together in the long run. He'll have his own life, and I have my own life, but we come together and make a life for ourselves. Someone to love me as much as I love myself. :P




Q: i like your legs...what time do they open?
A: oh thanks! sorry, they were never in business.




Q: If you were chocolate, you'd melt because you're so hottt! Then people would scrape you off the pavement and eat your ass up! EAT YOUR ASS UP LIKE A RIM JOB! OMG I'M SO BAD! Quan, if you were a dog, would you lick your own penis? Nature of the beast!
A: AHAHAHAHA WHAT!!! WHO IS THIS!?!?! GET OUTTA HERE!!
By the way, I love how you constructed your question, with the weight of your text to show emphasis!




Q: How has Vietnam influenced your outlook on life (like values, beliefs, perspective, etc)? And how does it inspire and/or influence your artwork?
A: Vietnam has influenced in a lot of ways, but generally in the ways I view and interpret things, in 2 different point of views, from living there, and now living here in US. east and west.

Sometimes when I feel I'm stuck in a creative rut, I tend to look back on my childhood journals, or remember those times when I wake up to the morning air and getting ready for school in my uniforms, and just sneaking out during the humid nights to go play with my friends, those little moments when I was so full of dreams and ambitions, I remind myself to be that way and stay gold as much as I can. To push forward creatively, and also smart enough to make relevant work. Having traveling back and forth overseas, I'm attracted to creating things on organic brown paper, it seems more personal and earthy, I guess reminds me of the warm weather I grew up with. Also, one of my personal favorite projects was inspired by my love for these few places: http://bit.ly/bOsm4p




Q: What type of model defines your aesthetic/is your biggest muse?
A: Great question!
For female models, I am drawn towards demure but strong, soft but edgy models, like russian supermodel Sasha Pivovarova, or chinese supermodel Du Juan!
For male models, I also like a good balance of masculinity with a touch of softness, I love danish supermodel Mathias Lauridsen, or spanish supermodel Jon Kortajarena!

and I think Ash Stymest and Eddie Klint have such good hair!!! lol




Q: Have you ever hooked up with a "straight guy"?
A: Nope. I've never really hooked up with anyone.
Someone accused me in a hateful question a few months ago: http://www.formspring.me/geneticboi/q/78164710
nothing as pathetic as an anonymous hater, huh?




Q: if i asked you to be my photographer for the day? what rates do you charge? and for editing too? i want you to follow me all day like a paparazzi!
A: well a day would be quite expensive, however, it also depends on how many pictures you choose at the end to be edited, I don't have a specific price because I have never do something like that before, but sure... need that picture of you it's so magical... we'd be so fantastical.. I'm your biggest fan I'll follow you until you love me... papa.paparazzi!




Q: would u teach me some tricks in photoshop? i love the way u edit all your pictures and i love your styles too
A: Thank you! I've answered this question before, and this is what I said, I don't think I will... I'd rather you mess around on photoshop and learn on your own because that's how I learned my photo editing. You don't wanna learn it from me and then whoever asks you how did you edit your photos, you would have to always credit me, wouldn't that be such a hassle? There are many photo editing tutorial sites out there as well. Good luck! :)




Q: Hey there Geneticboi! This is Suhdillyah from Tumblr! I recently got your question! Thanks for asking. I just posted my response to Tumblr. I love your art. Where do you draw your inspiration from? I'm quite the opposite for you: words come easier :]
A: I saw. YAY! thanks Nate!
we get inspired differently, but we're still in the same creative spectrum! :)

I've answered this question quite a lot (in this form, and my old blog entries as well), but I'm happy you want to know. My inspirations come from many sources, but mainly music... when I listen to music, I close my eyes, and different design elements pops up, like organic shapes, with muted colors, or geometric shape with bright or dark colors, etc... so I write those words or draw those shapes out on my sketchbook and refer back later.

However, I also get inspired by words too (a la reading your blog/poems for inspiration lol) my work is very contradictory you could say, always have a duality, soft with hard, organic with geometric, futuristic but still vintage. Sometimes my train of thoughts is triggered by a single word or phrase. Inspirations come easy for me, but it's not always easy to express it, however, I still keep soaking in more inspirations... and eventually, it will flow out naturally when I'm motivated.




Q: Do your friends know how lucky they are? -- Est-ce que tes amis savent à quel point ils sont chanceux??? (I've translate in french for you to have the right version of my question if never my translation is wrong... My english is not perfect at all!!) ;
A: Oh, je vous remercie! Vous êtes bien aimable, oui, ils sont reconnaissants envers moi, mais surtout je suis heureux de les avoir. Votre anglais est assez bon!

Thank you! you are too kind! yes, my friends are grateful to have me, but most importantly, I'm grateful to have them! Your english is good enough!




Q: how would you describe your style?
A: My style varies on different days. I don’t think we should limit ourselves to just one style. Style is how someone carries themselves while being confident in what they are doing and wearing. Plus, think of it this way, everyday is another chance to get up, dress up, show up. You can be a different person everyday, depending on what you wear. But I really admire those who break rules and try to bend genders, androgynous styles.




Q: where do you find inspiration for most of your artworks(photography,design,and clothing)from?
A: I usually listen to music, and visualize color schemes, design elements, shapes, and all that... and I would make a note down on my journal. Also I have very vivid and lucid dreams, so I would wake up in the middle of the night and write down my dreams in my sketchbook and use those imageries for my work later.

Photography, Clothing, and Fashion, I look at Men's Non-No a lot for men's styling inspiration. I look at a lot of art and fashion blogs for color schemes and how to wear what with what, I mean... of course looking is 1 thing but putting together and adding your own personal touch is another thing.

In general, I find most of my inspirations from everything around me, honestly. When you have a creative mindset, you get inspired by almost everything.




Q: what are some of your favorite brands,stores to shop?
A: I love shopping at thrift vintage stores, I love H&M, Topman, Alex & Chloe, Opening Ceremony, overseas-brand clothing are great too, but I honestly couldn't careless about brands, I don't care for designer labels, but it would be nice to wear designers. Still, I always love mix and match, cheap and expensive things together.




Q: Any tips on wanting to get into photography? What type of lenses do you have?
A: Photography is a tricky thing. From my perspective, you don't need to take Photo classes to know how to take photos, the trick is learning and messing around on your own with your camera, practice makes perfect! I have a Canon DSLR which I use solely for HQ and photoshoots. I use the basic standard lens that came with my camera, and I bought a portrait lens for 50 bucks, but there's no zooming so I have to move physically! haha...

but like I said, I know people who have many expensive lens and equipments but their photos are not even worth viewing. I don't have much equipments but I make it work, and when I am limited in expenses, I'm forced to be even more creative!




Q: Someone asked you in the past how you get to know so many people in places like SF, NYC. How do you maintain your distance friendships?
A: well you see, only the real good friends stick around, and I've met some people before but they chose not to be in my life, so we don't keep contact much. But all of my friends I have, the good ones, I usually email them, FaceBook, or call. But with my friends, we can just pick up where we left off even if months have passed. Those are the good friendships! :)




Q: I have a very racy question. (Gay Relationship) My boyfriend sometimes won't satisfy me. He gets his and i'm left to my own devices. I know some guys get tired ofter the big O, but geez it's laziness and selfishness. What would you do?
A: it's not too racy! :) lol... I love that you use "the big O" haha!!!
well, I'm not a sexpert or anything, but I would suggest that when you guys are at foreplay, suck him off until he cums, so when you 2 are having sex, he will last longer the 2nd time around. OR... when you're having sex, and if you feel he's gonna come, switch to different positions, the process of changing positions slow down his erection so he won't come to the big O too fast.




Q: would u let me fuck your brains out?
A: who is this?! why are people asking me these sexual questions lately?! LOL. I don't just let anyone "anonymous" fuck my brains out, BUT if you can get it up... well, I'll let Rihanna answer the rest of this question: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e82VE8UtW8A give it to me baby, like BOOM BOOM BOOM!




Q: WHICH DO YOU PREFER? A WHITE, BROWN OR BLACK COCK?? EXPLAIN WHY. BE HONEST!!
A: I'm an open opportunity, I don't discriminate. I like all kinds of flavors!

Thank you to everyone who asked me questions so far... see! I used them to make a blog entry, so you didn't wasted your time asking! :) There were some that's too short, so I didn't include it. If you need to vent, I'm always here. Ask away!

Remember: even if people talk shit about you, or say negative things, you have all the rights to feel self-important! LOVE YOURSELF! FREE YOURSELF! BE COMFORTABLE WITH YOUR SEXUALITY! BE YOU! :)
