I was really looking forward to have my last bit of fun before I flew out to Nicaragua on Monday, and now no more M.I.A, N*E*R*D, FlyLo, Sleigh Bells, The Gaslamp Killer, or Die Antwoord. I already had a feeling that they were going to cancel HARD LA after the mess that happened at EDC, but HARD LA shouldn't be taking heat for what happened at that rave when HARD's not even a rave. FML; and now, they're saying that they're going to make one giant festival on Aug. 7th when Soulwax and Crystal Castles are supposed to play, but they haven't even said if Saturday's original lineup is going to play. Ugh...thanks EDC for giving me an even bigger reason to hate you.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/TD0SqdUx-FI/AAAAAAAAAGE/5xYMCZGFfUM/s1600/Screen+shot+2010-07-13+at+6.27.46+PM.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 399px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/TD0SqdUx-FI/AAAAAAAAAGE/5xYMCZGFfUM/s400/Screen+shot+2010-07-13+at+6.27.46+PM.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493567641097467986" /></a>Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-21895663202355519402010-06-29T23:53:00.000-07:002010-06-30T23:33:38.175-07:00Finally working at somewhere I like!So last Wednesday I got an interview at Aldo, after 2 months that I gave my application to the store, and then right in the middle of the interview, I got the job. So ridiculously awesome, I'm so happy! I can't wait to start working now, and I even went on a little shopping haul at H&M, F21, and Urban for some work clothes, cos I guess the majority of my clothes aren't all business/fashion attire.<br /><br />On top of that, the same day I got hired, I won tickets to HARD LA thanks to LA Weekly, and all I had to do was to be one of the first two people to correctly give the name of M.I.A's son. I should have known, but thanks to my fast internet and Google, I'll never forget Ikhyd's name. LOL. So now in a few weeks, two days before my trip to Nicaragua, I'll be seeing M.I.A, N.E.R.D, Flying Lotus for the second time, Rye Rye, GLK, and tons of other acts.

Being the obsessive Laker fan that I am, I knew I was going to cry if the Lakers won or lost against those bloody Celtics, and I'm so glad I cried for something good, lol. And seeing Pau Gasol cry and Ron Artest flip out for his first championship win was even more heartwarming.<div><br /></div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_04492.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 690px; height: 423px;" src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_04492.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Sorry Celtics.

Unfortunately, the Beach Ballyhoo was over capacity and we couldn't get it, so we had to admire Anthony Green and all his amazing-ness outside the venue and sit in the sand. And also, as I was walking back to my car, I ran into Tony Hawk and his family, which was pretty cool. His kids are the cutest.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0608.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 690px; height: 423px;" src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0608.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0609.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 690px; height: 423px;" src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0609.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0630b.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 690px; height: 423px;" src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0630b.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0620.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 690px; height: 423px;" src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0620.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0611.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 690px; height: 423px;" src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk65/priscie_c/DSC_0611.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />But I did get to have some retail therapy before the show at H&M and grab a cute dress, some shorts, and some glasses that were on sale.

Despite the overwhelmingly bad reviews I kept on reading over the LA Times and other publications, I really enjoyed it and couldn't disagree more with those reviews. It was alright, and with the fashion that Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda were sporting, how can you hate? And with shoes like these that Carrie sported, don't even get me started.<div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="http://blog.forever21.com/blog/images/image/RivetPastel.jpg" border="0" alt="" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 413px; " /></span></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div>But now, I'm actually getting up to speed with SATC and finally started watching the series (I never did before watching the first SATC movie). Now, you can't get me off the computer without at least watching two episodes a day, which isn't even that much, but still. The days I'm not doing much, it's like a SATC marathon in here. Just like it's gonna be right now...nite!</div></div>Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-73631822037400121592010-05-03T22:13:00.000-07:002010-06-04T01:05:02.454-07:00I don't mind sharing eitherThe other day, I ran into the website of an artist by the name of Ric Stultz, and couldn't thank the heavens enough to be graced by his art.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.ricstultz.com/GOUACHE_09_WWW/welcome_to_the_club_www.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 695px; height: 470px;" src="http://www.ricstultz.com/GOUACHE_09_WWW/welcome_to_the_club_www.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Welcome to the Club</span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.ricstultz.com/GOUACHE_2010_WWW/minds_racing_www.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 695px; height: 470px;" src="http://www.ricstultz.com/GOUACHE_2010_WWW/minds_racing_www.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Minds Racing</span><br /><br />The 27 year old illustrator from Milwaukee that graduated from University of Wisconsin Stout who gets his inspiration from Arrested Development, spider monkeys, Biggie and Tupac, and Rembrandt creates his illustrations on what would born out of play on words.

Today I dropped off some applications at Sephora and Aldo, and on the spot, I got an interview for tomorrow at Aldo, which is perfect since I don't have school. Things are looking up, and also, to save me from me 6 year misery of not going to Coachella, I've bought a piggy bank just to save up for it, and decided that going when I'm 21 is actually worth the wait. =) Ultra excited.Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-34141735311642027212010-04-01T20:05:00.000-07:002010-06-04T01:04:28.805-07:00losing my mind and spring breakThe past few weeks have been ridiculously hectic with midterms, but luckily now I'm appreciating my week off from school and enjoying spring break pretty good. So far it's consisted of shopping in Santa Monica, job hunting, long trips to Tijuana, and working on my jewelry. I'm hoping that with the <a href="http://www.downtownartwalk.org/">Downtown L.A Artwalk</a> coming up next week, I can find a way to set up a <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/losanjealous">los anjealous</a> booth for the next few months. Since the artwalk lands on my birthday, and if I'm able to settle a deal for May, that would be such a great birthday present. =)<br /><br /><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bJDCMth8poM&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bJDCMth8poM&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object><br /><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1PorW3y5n1w&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1PorW3y5n1w&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object><br />I've been listening to this great little band from Ireland, thanks to the recommendation of my good friend Alfredo. <a href="http://www.myspace.com/twodoorcinemaclub">Two Door Cinema Club </a> has such great dance-y rhythm to their music, and they're definitely deserve the hype that they have gotten over the blogosphere. They're playing in West Hollywood May 5th at the Troubadour. Pre-sale tix are $10, and then $12 a the door.

I'm sure all of you who have signed up to Vampire Weekend's mailing list also got the notice of the new video for 'Giving Up The Gun', but I don't know if you reacted in the same way as I did as when you give a 3 year old a box of licorice.<br /><br />As you've seen with older Vampire Weekend videos, the boys have had this style to most of their videos, even with their last one 'Cousins', where it looks like it came out of an 80's teen film or just a preppy uppity video. Now with 'Giving Up The Gun', Ezra Koenig's ideas have made Vampire Weekend come out of their comfort zone, and grace us with a modern-looking video (for me the all white shouts futuristic to me) and even add cameo appearances! Trust me, the last person I thought I was going to see in this video was Joe Jonas.<br /><br /><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FmEe4Qg6A9Y&hl=en_US&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FmEe4Qg6A9Y&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br /><br />As soon as I saw the whole tennis theme, I went crazy since I've been playing tennis lately. But I couldn't help to be annoyed and think how in the world did she beat a drunk Jake Gyllenhaal when she doesn't even know how to hold the racquet right, but i guess with Lil Jon coaching you, how can you lose? He surely gave her that Crunk Juice, thus resulting in flaming tennis balls.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i45.tinypic.com/vcutcw.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 684px; height: 547px;" src="http://i45.tinypic.com/vcutcw.png" border="0" alt="" /></a>Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-53581737106944461582010-02-15T23:54:00.000-08:002010-02-24T21:29:17.459-08:00post valentines<div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i47.tinypic.com/5nocg.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 402px; height: 290px;" src="http://i47.tinypic.com/5nocg.png" border="0" alt="" /></a></div><div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i47.tinypic.com/5nocg.png"></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">postsecret.com</span>

<br />Singles' Awareness Day could not have gone better while I spent the whole day with my lovely mother (waking up early to make her coffee and give hand her the pink tulips I got for her), took her to Downtown to shop, and then came back home and brought Luly and and Gladys over to grub and watch Vicky Cristina Barcelona, which I have to remember to order online now.</div><div>

In brief, I'm going into my 4th week of being vegan, I'm loving my classes (finally glad to be taking my major classes), I've actually started working out and playing tennis, I got a texting plan, and John Mayer has proven himself to be a douche bag that makes me feel guilty when I listen to "Your Body is a Wonderland."<div><br /></div><div>I haven't stepped out of my house in over 24 hours since I've been hit with some horrible allergies, which hasn't stopped me reading my copy of A Clockwork Orange that came in the mail earlier this week, but did stop me from going to my first frat party at UCLA last night and going to the movies today. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i50.tinypic.com/116oyrl.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 600px; height: 500px;" src="http://i50.tinypic.com/116oyrl.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /></div><div>Oh well...til later my droogies.</div>Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-70351566419756571342010-01-02T20:32:00.000-08:002010-01-02T21:01:25.572-08:00hi 2010.I've become so much more accepting of the the fact that 2009 was by far one of the lamest years ever. Although I did not work at my full potential, I've decided let go of all my remorse towards myself for not doing so, and I'm glad to be starting off fresh. I feel that although I made <span style="font-style:italic;">some</span> progress towards getting closer to my goals, I didn't take advantage of the year fully and also, it didn't treat me as good, especially in school and work. It did start off at a bad foot anyways.<br /><br />But forget the old year; out with the old, in with the new. I have high hopes for this year; I really wish that I do so much more this year and have a much more enjoyable year in so many different aspects (i.e., socially, scholarly, artistically), in which I would meet December 31, 2010 with a giant grin on my face shining off accomplishment. I want to do so many projects, spend much more time with family and friends, and not let school and work stress me out. I want to take control of this year and not let it control me, like so many things did last year.<br /><br />So a toast to 2010 (which I missed to give yesterday at midnight, but better now than never).

I'm glad I don't have to worry about procrastinating right now, since I'm starting off a new slate since midterms finished, which I must say were torture.<br /><br />For the past two weeks I've managed to have a few adventures, including talking to a border inspector when driving back to LA from TJ (and him "complimenting me" on how I looked just like Kourtney Kardashian), San Diego to visit Fredy, taking my little brother to his first Laker game, and seeing Regina Spektor at The Greek Theater.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUcpMho0hI/AAAAAAAAAD0/Yw_azB9ldRs/s1600-h/Photo0705.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUcpMho0hI/AAAAAAAAAD0/Yw_azB9ldRs/s400/Photo0705.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401254822163304978" border="0" /></a><br />TJ - where the safest roads are.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUdHKFDg4I/AAAAAAAAAD8/nykFgqwxhIA/s1600-h/Photo0692.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUdHKFDg4I/AAAAAAAAAD8/nykFgqwxhIA/s400/Photo0692.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401255336902624130" border="0" /></a><br />LA fevahh<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUbbD2-PRI/AAAAAAAAADs/dwtx5N-Jg_4/s1600-h/100_3689.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 647px; height: 431px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUbbD2-PRI/AAAAAAAAADs/dwtx5N-Jg_4/s400/100_3689.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401253479807073554" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">"you are so sweet dancing to the beat..."</span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUbACUZbgI/AAAAAAAAADk/aVgu45Cv7Nc/s1600-h/100_3686.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 644px; height: 429px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0D67JrrSDBE/SvUbACUZbgI/AAAAAAAAADk/aVgu45Cv7Nc/s400/100_3686.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401253015537151490" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><object width="400" height="300"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=7483677&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=7483677&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="300"></embed></object><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/7483677">Regina Spektor @ The Greek Theater 10/28</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2597741">Priscilla Castro</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p><br /><br />Amazing evening.<br /><br /><br />So now that October's fun is long gone, helllooo baby boom babies. I tend to lose count on how many of my friends have their birthdays this month, but think of it like this. It's like celebrating Christmas for two months. Three birthdays have already passed (including Fredy's 20th bday today), and there's many more to knock down. Phew, parentals were sure getting busy in the late 80's/early 90's.<br /><br />While I get ready to buy the rest of the presents for my dear friends this month, I'll go ahead and treat myself to these like if I were a November baby too.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://content.nordstrom.com/ImageGallery/store/product/Gigantic/19/_5910599.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 600px; height: 616px;" src="http://content.nordstrom.com/ImageGallery/store/product/Gigantic/19/_5910599.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.aldoshoes.com/static/webUpload/731/28_jipson_96_6.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 576px; height: 576px;" src="http://www.aldoshoes.com/static/webUpload/731/28_jipson_96_6.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Yummy!Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-55230735911556245072009-09-27T13:30:00.000-07:002009-09-27T13:32:58.082-07:00eye candy...<div>NOM.

It's been time due since I should have posted a blog about my summer adventures (which were very few unfortunately due to working for school) and all my other interests that caught my eye in the past months. Something that definetely that caught my eye in the summer was HARD Summer, ha ha, but not in the most positive sense after all the hype that was made.<br /><br />Summer in brief:<br />-Bat For Lashes was amazing, and I loved the intimate atmosphere.<br />-Won tickets from Ameoba to see Ray LaMontagne, Jenny Lewis,and Blitzen Trapper at the Hollywood Bowl. Great show.<br />-Free time was mainly spent on making more headbands, earrings, and necklaces for <a href="http://www.blogger.com/losanjealous.etsy.com">los anjealous</a>.<br />-Saw The Dead Weather at Jimmy Kimmel Live, and caught a glimpse of B.J Novak when Jimmy Kimmel was introducing The Dead Weather. Alison Mosshart and Jack White gave me goosebumps. Also, when I was leaving my bag with my sister at the Roosevelt, I ran into to Eric Wareheim from Tom Goes To Mayor, and again when I was going to pick up my bag, which was pretty cool and funny.<br />-Finally enjoyed the exquisiteness of a Cuban pastry (guava and cheese in particular). No lie, it's orgasmatic.<br />-Expanded my closet a lot more thanks to the joys of thrifting in Hollywood from thrift shop to thrift shop to thrift shop.<br />-Knocked off a few books from my summer reading list.<br />-Finally visited Venice Beach.<br />-Saw Fight Club, FINALLY.<br />-Urban Outfitters is a thing of the past, thank God.<br /><br />So now fall is here, and I couldn't be more happy. I do not, and honestly can't think of anyone who can function well under heat. I personally get ridiculously light headed, and prefer not to drive anywhere, which consequently leaves me in a state of cabin fever. But why risk getting in another accident? Psh, I'm just happy I'll be enjoying the chilly breezes, the sight of streets accented with orange and yellow leaves, the lack of light headed ness, and especially the fact that I can wear my coats that have not seen the light of day for a year.<br /><br />I'm also back at LB, which has left me with a semester I'm really enjoying. Despite the fact that I'm on campus Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:30 AM til 7:00 PM, my classes are pretty great. I'm taking a womyn's studies course again, but this time women and their bodies, so it's letting me know a LOT more about myself, anatomically speaking, hah. But when I'm not in school, I'm working, which technically leaves me with no days off, but at least I get to catch up on homework. Either way, I can't say no to a day of work these days, since I'm desperately trying to save up for a dslr, which will help me blog more often on here. Sadly, the lack of a camera really affects me in continuing to blog. Soon...sooon.<br /><br />So I'll try to be blogging periodically now, not like I've slacked off before, with MUCH more interesting junk. =)<br /><br />xoxoPriscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-79608562965147111982009-07-14T01:55:00.000-07:002009-07-14T01:57:33.926-07:00eep<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://kickitskate.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/hard-2009-summer-music-festival-11.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 620px; height: 413px;" src="http://kickitskate.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/hard-2009-summer-music-festival-11.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />You bet your sweet ass I'm excited.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://kickitskate.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/hard-2009-summer-music-festival-2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 620px; height: 930px;" src="http://kickitskate.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/hard-2009-summer-music-festival-2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-45495565946997136782009-07-08T18:38:00.000-07:002009-07-14T01:51:49.483-07:00surrealYesterday was a day of hysterics and sadness with Michael Jackson's memorial and my parents going crazy over my mistakes. I have calmed down a bit after this whole claim was made on my insurance for the accident, but the girl I hit really screwed me over now and turned her back on me claiming more damage than was actually made and now injuries. What a slick way to dig into my empty pocket...<br /><br />Driving towards Downtown yesterday, I was a bit skeptical about going shopping in the fashion district afraid that there were going to be tons and tons of road closures and horrible traffic, but luckily I got right into where I was headed. Driving around, we saw the tons of black Land Rovers and Rolls Royce's that were taking the Jackson family to the Staples Center, which seemed so crazy to me since I was so close. I bought a few pairs of jeans with my sister, and headed back towards Downey wiping tears from our eyes as we heard the entire memorial on the radio. As soon as I got home, I could not stop crying seeing the memorial rerun on VH1. Me and my sister were just wondering that we were going to remember that day forever, and when we would be older, we're going to tell our kids, "Kids, when we were much younger, we drove around Michael Jackson's memorial service and cried our eyes out while listening to it on the radio and watching it on TV." It was such a surreal day.<br /><br />Rest In Peace MJ.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.viax.cl/bang/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/michael-jackson.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 627px; height: 471px;" src="http://www.viax.cl/bang/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/michael-jackson.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-31299965226167031492009-07-06T18:11:00.000-07:002009-07-06T18:16:22.485-07:00oh accidents...It's funny how I'm more worried about my parents going ballistic over higher insurance rates than the damage of both cars, even though they're minor scrapes.<br /><br /><br />Oh Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna, at least you two make me smile on a day like this.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8jVgNr5hT8Y&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8jVgNr5hT8Y&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/F5UgJEP-IRU&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/F5UgJEP-IRU&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>Priscilla C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02439805989554072600noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2148984163606934435.post-17446154729421733372009-07-05T09:30:00.000-07:002009-07-05T10:26:48.333-07:00far from realityIn the past month, a lot of things have happened that make things seem so surreal. Thankfully it's more good things than bad things, but still I feel that I need to break away from some things, some people, and maybe even leave L.A for a little while. Maybe even consider taking a trip to the east coast since my aunt wants me to come over before the year's over.<br /><br />To recap, the Lucky Brand Jeans Neighborhood Social was great. Bat For Lashes's performance was lovely and very intimate since the people were all cramped up in the back of the store. Surprisingly after eating chinese with Edwin before he went to work at Banana, I rushed over to Lucky only to find that I barely made it with still having a seat way up infront of Natasha. It was great, and her performance was acoustic with only the marxophone, piano, and another instrument that I had never seen before or in her performances. After the show, everyone fought to get the set list, but I just took her poster from the store outside. It was a great show and I just can't wait to see her again next month.<br /><br /><br /><br />Aside from that, I job hunted like crazy, and applied to Urban Outfitters with no expectations of a call back. Two weeks ago they proved me wrong with offering me a group interview with 15 other folks, and after that one, they offered me another one with the 5 that were picked out of the bunch. Now, I start training tomorrow as a cashier over there, and I couldn't be more excited. Only downside is that by working there it means I'm going to be working two jobs this summer, with my weekend job at a driving school here by LAX. At least I'll be using the time working there by writing on my blog, like right now. Hah...<br /><br /><br /><br />However, things have been in a somber mood since Michael Jackson's passing. To this day, I still can't believe he has left us for good. I've been paying my respects to him by playing his songs non stop, and this week I'm going to visit his star on the Walk of Fame and leave some flowers for him. My sister and I actually signed up for the tickets of the memorial service that's going to take place at the Staples Center, but after the overwhelming amount of people that registered for the lottery, I doubt that I'll be able to get them.<br /><br /><a href="http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs182.snc1/6052_98588118190_525883190_2082175_967204_n.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 340px; HEIGHT: 604px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs182.snc1/6052_98588118190_525883190_2082175_967204_n.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Oh Michael, rest in peace.<br /><br />On the brighter side, the shop my sister and I opened up on etsy has been open for two weeks already with a lot of good feedback. Despite making only a few sales, we've already sold to people in France which was very surprising. We've been making lots of accesories and jewelery, and we're planning on putting up some more items before the end of the month.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LmV0c3kuY29tL3Nob3AucGhwP3VzZXJfaWQ9NzUxODAxNQ=="><img src="http://ny-image3.etsy.com/iusb_760x100.6389775.jpg" /></a><br /><br />But for now, I have to handle to shop all by myself since my sister is going to leave to Nicaragua Wednesday. Again, I'm going to be the only child in the house...and that's never any fun.

But now, I'm back in business.<br /><br />Sure my trip this past weekend to the rural areas up in Northern California with the fam bam was allright, but now it's time to get down to the down to the real dirt here in town.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/_/24421389/Bat+for+Lashes+Natasha.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 333px;" src="http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/_/24421389/Bat+for+Lashes+Natasha.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />This Sunday Bat For Lashes will be playing at the Lucky Brand Jeans store in the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica for free.
