Oblivious meets Sean Miura

I've actually written about this dude on the old tumblr, when Sean became Mr. Hyphen 2013

Name: Sean Miura

Stuff he does: Tuesday Night Project, LTRoots, Chaotic 3, Team Ferosha, Family Bizness, Ninjas for Social Justice, Sawai Koto Academy (Shamisen), Apartment J386, sometimes I hang out in Little Tokyo.  Once someone called me Mr. Hyphen.

 What's the one word you are guilty of using too much?

"Folks" 

How did you end up doing what you are doing now?

I was born in Seattle, spent thirteen years in Vancouver, spent a further five years in New Jersey, then landed in Los Angeles for school.  Through all that I picked up random side-hustles and ended up working on a bunch of projects (see the first question) that led me to this moment!

Dogs or Cats, who wins? Why?

Dogs.  They're loyal, fun, and I'm not borderline afraid of them. 

What is the best part of any given day for you?

That moment right before a meal, though without the payoff of actually eating the food I suppose that would be a pretty terrible moment.  So I'm going to say mealtime, overall.

If you could talk to your high school self, what would you say to them?

Calm down. 

What is the last thing you searched for on google?

"Ruby Ibarra"

In a zombie apocalypse who would you want on your survival team?

Steve Yuen because he's awesome and probably knows something about surviving zombies.

What is the best thing or meal you ever ate?

When I was in high school my mom would buy these huge bags of frozen gyoza, so I would come home from school and make a giant pan, reheat some leftover rice, and then eat the whole mess while watching Family Guy.  Nothing better.


 

As a producer of Tuesday Night Cafe Sean informed the audience last week that an anonymous Japanese American elder has proposed a challenge to young folks under 35.  If you are under 35 and donate to the Keep TN free campaign, this anonymous elder will double your donation!  So you put in 5, someone will put in 10, making your total donation $15! Imagine if you put in $100, someone would put in $200, making your donation $300!!
