now, anyone who knows me well knows that when it comes to celebrity crushes, i tend to go for slightly more ahm ... matured men (read: kevin costner, george clooney). none of them teeny bopper crushes, thanks very much. aaron carter can get his candy elsewhere as far as im concerned. 

BUT today, after being glued to star world for one and a half hours watching akeelah and the bee (starring keke palmer and laurence fishburne. morpheus y' all!) ... i think i ve been converted.    

meet sean michael afable. nineteen, eurasian and the current object of my desire. isn t he cute? :D a quick search on imdb (ah where would we be without that blessed database of all things hollywood?) revealed that he s half phillipino (no wonder he looks like utt! wait. is utt indonesian?), lives in the O.C, is an aspiring break dancer slash professional actor and has television credits which cover disney programmes like 'that s so raven' and 'phil of the future' (slight turn off, but i suppose it s forgivable. everyone has to start somewhere, after all).

<3 and get this, get this. he s into THE GOO GOO DOLLS! i swear it s destiny. too bad he s like a million miles away. :(

whoah. i haven t had a celeb crush in aeons. i feel thirteen all over again. :D
