- If you're a person that has lived on the east coast mostly all of your life.. and thought that California was the land of sunshine and beautiful people.. (thanks to the countless tv shows depicting Orange County) well, you're only half right.. it's not the case up here in North California. And this is how i'm experiencing it.

I'M BACK IN NC!!

Finally!! I'm back in good ol' carolina. Don't you north californians confuse 'NC' for north cali. That's an insult to me. And seeing lots of 'ghetto' ppl in Eureka wearing tarheel blue UNC hats and shirts.. I question myself if they really know what a tarheel is and what the UNC 'NC' logo stands for.. I'm probably correct that they assume that NC stands for 'norcal'. Pshhh. Lammeee.

Anyways.. I love NC. North Carolina. I'm back :)

Shit falling from the skies!

Ok. I couldn't hold it anymore. It fucking hurted and my stomache couldn't handle it anymore. #2. Eww. Gross. Shut the fuck up and grow up. Everyone drops the kids off at the pool. Get over it. Anyways.. I usually hate having to #2 on planes.. First, its hard to concentrate. Second, there are ppl needing to shit too. Lastly, you leave a trail of shit vapors as you pass by ppl to get to your row. Ok, so since I've done this before.. I brought my ipod.. Listening to my a&f tunes.. Waited for the woman occupying the lavatory.. Then it was my turn. Fart. Fart. Fart... Where's the shit? Like I said before.. Its hard to concentrate. Anyways.. About 8-10 mins later as I was finishing up my business.. There was a fuckin knock on the door. Flight attendant? Hell no. I opened up the door, and saw this Indian businessman. I gave him a dirty look signifying my expression "can't you fuckin wait for your turn??" he saw me give him direct eye contact and he looked away.. (i should've knocked on the door after he closed himself in.. Hahhahaha) anyways.. Got back to my seat and started typing this entry on my treo.

Now back when I was really little. This story is funny. I was probably in the 1st or 2nd grade.. I used to think that whenever you flush your poop on the airplanes.. It releases outside the plane and falls from the sky onto the earth below. Hahhahaha. Cute huh? I used to paranoid of this and freak out whenever I see and hear a plane overhead me.. I'd run to the nearest shelter or building till the sky was clear.. For I was afraid of poop falling down on me. Hahahah. Has anyone else been paranoid about this?

~Lor

On time but no starbucks :(

Arrived at O'Hare with 37 mins till our flight to Raleigh. Little did we know that there was a Starbucks. But it was an AIRPORT starbucks. And I swore to myself on my previous trips that i'd NEVER get anything from terminal starbucks anymore.. They're licensed. Not a real starbucks. Like the ones in Barnes & Noble.. "starbucks café" hahah... So thanks, but ill pass.

On the way to O'Hare..

Finally boarded on my 4 hour redeye flight to Chicago. The plane is packed with ppl, there's a movie, I have the overhead air thingy blasting at me, and I have the center aisle seat just in case I have to pee. Lets go shall we?

~Lor

People watching & designer bags..

Since our flight was wayyyyy early.. We are stuck at the SFO airport for about 2 hours.. Chillin at the center of the airport at a foodcourt and people watching for attractive ppl. Believe me.. Its a sight for sore eyes to actually see HOT ppl outside Eureka and anywhere else in Humboldt County. Hahaha.. I love airports.. They're the BEST place to ppl watch and see different american and foreign cultures.. And to add to that.. I love seeing the different designer bags.. Louis Vuitton, Prada, Bogetta Vonetta, Hermes, Burberry, Marc Jacobs, &... I think that's all of the types I've seen so far.. But mostly LVs, since they're so easily recognizable (to me that is..) I might as well work for them.. Heh.. Off to my terminal now :)

~Lor

Ready.. Set.. Jetset!!!

On the plane now.. Flying to San Francisco :)

~Lor

Fuckin' Arcata airport..

We got a call about an hour ago saying our flight was cancelled. Damn. But she offered us the flight before our scheduled one.. And so.. We had to rush finishing our last phase of packing our stuff and securing everything before we left. We had to scramble for a ride to the airport b/c Eric, the guy that's supposed to dive us a ride wasn't answering his phone. We managed to get him. We called the gym. And they found him. And soo... I went to starbucks to get 3 drinks for us.. Beating out a long line of cars that arrived behind me.. Score.. And now.. We're on the way in Eric's car.. Traveling to the Arcata airport. I swear.. There's so many damn problems at local and small airports like this one.. Lets just hope this flight doesn't get cancelled.. I'll fuckin throw a fit. Heh.

Packin' for North Carolina!!

I'm packin my stuff tonight.. Doesn't look like I packed a lot huh? That's b/c I'm skilled a folding shit. Hahhah thanks to working at Abercrombie & Fitch last summer.. But believe me... There's A LOT of stuff. C'mon.. This is ME we're talking about.. I practically travel with my entire closet.. Heh.

Fyi: ill be taking pics and updating constantly as I travel from cali, while I'm in NC, and until I return :)

Hot bod

Finally got some 'under armor' to wear when I exercise at the gym.. I couldn't find the UnderArmor brand... So I had to resort with Nike.

I got a medium and its tight!! That's what spandex and polyester does to ya ;)

I also bought a formal jacket and dress pants too.. My mom said she'd pay for it.. So, yeah.. That was cool. Heh.. I'm fcukin broke now. Haha.. After all of these errands and shopping I did today.. And tired too.. Now I have to finish reading philosophy.. Ughhh..

I deal with Starbucks customers like Miss Swan everyday.. haha


i loveeeeeeeeeeee this video. Remember watching MadTV and the Miss Swan adventures? haha.. i definitely give props to MadTV on this video. it basically depicts how Starbucks baristas deal with UN-educated customers. Usually, i'd help 'new' customers who aren't familiar with the starbucks lingo/menu so that we can make them 'returning customers' you know? .. and end their visits to their local coffeeshops. muahahahaha. world domination. starbucks rules the world. haha. j/k. but seriously. it's funny to watch the REAL conversations between a starbucks barista & a stupid customer.. but when YOU'RE the barista, then that's something i just dont wanna deal with ;D .. i get enough of that at my store. hahaha..
~lor

Microwave these for 15 seconds..

The starbucks petite vanilla scones (0.75 each or 1.95 for 3) are definitely my favorite.. And especially awesome to eat when you microwave em for about 15 seconds. Do u know what they taste like and its texture when u chomp down on em? FLAPJACKS! YESS... It tastes just like buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup. Hahaha.. FLAPJACKS.

starbucks activists disgust me..


i posted a youtube comment under this video's location:
-if you have a problem about the Starbucks company.. THEN GO TO ETHIOPIA AND F***ING HELP THEM YOURSELF!!! it's not just Ethiopia where coffee bean plantations are located. they're in countries around the earth's equator. Starbucks is a GREAT company to work for. They give back and they help the farmers that they get their beans from. Where did you get the 3 cents fact anyway? from someone else? get your facts right. don't just assume. make some action.. don't WHINE about it.
~lor
but seriously.. after watching the people passing by getting interviewed.. it's just hilarious to watch... since they're fucking oblivious and will agree to something they think is reasonable to them.. uhh.. to tell you the truth.. it's NOT.

if they think that starbucks is cheating farmers... you really need to get your facts together. not just from one side.. but from BOTH. it's called being knowledgable. and when you talk like you 'know everything' .. it's actually quite embarassing when you say stuff that aren't true.

Say it with Juicy Couture

i fcuking fell in love with this Juicy Couture charm.. it's a 18K gold plated-brass crown with cubic zirconia and glass stone accents.. and of course the motherfuckin' bigass pearl in the center. haha. after seeing the cute accessories from Tarina Tarantino.. i'm starting to call any type of keychains as 'bag candy' .. seriously. they are. when they're cool looking like this.. i'd definitely call it. heh. and the price for this Juicy Couture charm is $50. i hesitated when i found out the price in the Juicy Couture store.. since it was something out of my recommended price range. (i'm not saying i can't afford it.. it's just that if i bought it, i'd surely get my ass kicked by my bf. hahahahah) ..let's say it was pretty crazy after i bought my CHANEL 5085-b's .. hehe.. but anyways.. if someone would like to buy this for me. haha. maybe a sugardaddy that'd like to spoil me even more.. hahaha. yeah.. i want that. heh. This thing is a charm.. something to clasp it on a bracelet... but i'd rather clasp it as a necklace or a keychain..

Anyways.. i had a gay moment that i had to share. haha. can't a person like me salivate on something nice every once in a while? Usually, when i'm at the malls.. 95% of the time, im usually not impressed on the stuff i see.. b/c i like to find something that's eye-catching.. or something that pops out at me.. if it looks ordinary or with boring colors.. then i'm fucking not going to buy it. duh. heh. .. i wish i was at a decent mall right about now... the mall here in my town is fucking half empty and the stores that are currently still there aren't ones i usually go to. There's a Victoria's Secret, Zumiez, Gap, Lids, Bath & Body Works, Claire's, Sears, and that's about it.. i think.. It's boring. and i seriously cannot understand how people in this town like to hang out at that mall every single day or weekend?! i'm like... there's nothing new. what's there to get? the Gap store only receives a small selection of clothes compared to the wider varieties in the cities. ugh. I have to travel down to the Gap flagship store in San Francisco just to find something i like.. or some other place out of Humboldt County. .. which is why im so excited to visit North Carolina again. i doubt i'll find something new when im shopping the 2 or 3 leveled malls.. but it beats walking in and out of the mall here in less than 15 minutes..

The man-bag?

Its typical nowadays to see males carrying messenger bags or manbags. Like women.. We have shit to carry too. Hahahahhahaha. I like my PUMA sport messenger. When I saw it for the first time while shopping in San Francisco.. I was like OMGGG.. I want it. I know its not Louis Vuitton or Dolce & Gabbana, but hey.. I'm spending most of my money on plane trips.. To other places better than the place I'm currently living in..

And speaking of trips.. I'm flying back to visit North Carolina for a week on tuesday, may 29th.. And leaving nc on June 6th.

~Lor

Hopefully this works..

This entry is just a test.. Hopefully my mobile internet is working.. And this won't stay in my gmail's outbox forever.. Heh..

Oh yeah.. I save the coffee sleeves from drinks at starbucks :)

Diamonds & CHANEL


Well.. Not really diamonds, but Swarovski crystals.. Got bored and
arranged the double-C Chanel logo on my Chanel sunglasses box.

Speaking of Chanel.. While working at Starbucks yesterday, a girl was
wearing a pair of 5086-b's!! Its the larger sized style of my 5085-b's
and the b's is the style with Swarovski crystals! Lol we both went
fuckin' nuts just talking about it. Hahaha.. Since it was both our
first times seeing someone else wearing a REAL 5085-b or 5086-b in
public!!! Talk about expensive tastes.. Our Chanels cost at least $500
each.. And now that they're discontinued.. We're totally rockin'
vintage in a few more years.. Heh.

G'morning muscles!


I know its vain of me.. To check myself everytime I pass a mirror. But
I can't help it. I understand why guys at the gym like to check
themselves out. They're gaining something they probably never had
before. Bigger and defined muscles. I'm almost there. I just gotta
minimize the amount of food and frapps I get. But I finally learned
the exercising techniques for mu obliques (and for those who don't
know.. That's the "V" under my stomach. Its the fucking HOTTEST thing
on anyone' body. *drool..* I just need to work on my abs more.. And my
pecs are getting HUGE! They look pretty nice when I wear it under a
tight fitted shirt ;)

damn mobile internet..

ok.. well i thought my treo had sent my mobile blog posts.. but no... it didnt. it was still stuck in the OUTBOX of my gmail account on my treo. i've had this problem before. it sometimes doesnt even connect to the internet. wtf. well for some reason.. i can surf around the internet on my treo.. but my gmail account doesn't connect! wtf?! .. ok.. well anyways. i'll try to reset the phone and take out the battery. idk. hopefully it will work.

as for the 2 blog posts above this one.. i did them this morning.. i had to work my way around the treo & the internet to upload the text & photo. ugh. so.. complicated...

Havin' a frapp break

Takin' a 10.. Drinkin' a dulce de leche frapp. I fuckin love that crunchy toffeenut sprinkes & whipped cream! :D anyways.. I'm feelin' out of it today. Maybe its b/c of the extraneous amount of calc 2 and philosophy I did earlier this moring.. Bleh.. Eek. Breaks over.. Heh.

Barista bears! :)

I got these 2 bears from starbucks.. A gift to my parents since they dress similar to them.. Heh. A late mother's day and an early father's day gift.. I've hadbit for a while now and I gotta stop procrastinating.. I need to pack it up and mail it off asap. I really want one of those new city barista bears.. Preferably nyc, san francisco, miami, or orange county.. But I have to actually buy them in the cities they're being sold at. Damn..

~Lor

Does it look like I'm having fun watching my lectures online? Hahahha.. It's calculus 2. I know.. I know.. What have I gotten myself into. At least I'm in my pajamas during 'class'. But now that I've said that.. There are a lot of students that DO wear their PJs to class on campus. And that's sad.. B/c I like to make fun of them.. Secretly wispering to my friends.. 'what the fuck is she wearing?' hahaha.. Unless you are taking classes online or wearing Juicy Couture or Victoria's Secret PINK sweatpants/clothes.. Then it's OK to wear them to class. Help me. I'm taking calc 2 all summer. *cries* :'(

Mobile blog: Ppl in this town are fuckin' CRAZY!!!

My god. What has this place come to. Do ppl here in california think everything revolves around them? We'll, the crazy ppl I come across to sure are.

Such as this crazy woman in a fucked up rusted red sedan tailgated the motherfuckin life of our blue eclipse. We braked several times for her to stop. She continues to tailgate. And then she tries to pass us on the 2 lane bridge. Stupid fucker. We blocked her from passing. And so we got to a part of the bridge that's on a small stretch of land and later becomes another bridge again.. At that place we did a u-turn while the red car stopped to the right shoulder.. Turned her car towards us. Basically perpendicular and a foot away from the side of our car. We yelled at her of course.. "LEARN HOW TO FUCKING DIVE YOU STUPID BITCH!!" and she pulled off behid us to the enterance of an exit ramp. Opened her door open and yelled "FUCK YOU! I HAVE MY 2 KIDS IN THE CAR!!" ..I laughed to myself.. Wow, she's setting a good example to her kids right? Haha.. we flicked her off with more cursing and drove off while she stayed parked at the same spot. What a stupid bitch.

And then less than half a mile away.. We drove to a redlight behind 2 cars.. To make a left..and there were 2 uglyass eurekans dressed in their shabby glory.. Standing on the median.. Trying to attempt to cross the street when our car was heading in their path. Of course we cut them off. Its not their right of way. Duh. Do u really want to compete with a idk.. A car that weighs a 100x more than u do.. And going about 60mph to a stop.. Haha.. I don't fuckin think so.. We had our windows closed. But could still hear what they said as they walked behind our car. "punks.." was what I heard.. But jeff, who was driving the entire time might have heard something different. As the woman passed my window I saw she turned her head around briefly to take a glance at those punks.. I took that chance and gave her a little thrust of my torso.. Signifying the motion like if she wanted a piece of me. Jeff then put my passenger window down and yelled "FUCK YOU!" to them. We were still waiting at the light. When it turned green.. The 2 eurekans walked across the other crosswalk in front of stopped traffic. Jeff told them to fuck off again. They might had said something back.. But I jokingly yelled back at them "boogilywooglieblahplahgrfjdiehdjskf" .. Hahaha.. A sarcastic response.. But I didn't care. Learn the rules of the road. You may have 2 legs.. But we have 4 tires.

Me and jeff continued to drive to the gym.. Dealing with other eurekans not knowing how to use their car.. Cutting us and being slow on the left lane.. Ugh.. When will they ever learn? Never. I've experienced all of the major highways in the cities.. Such as my recent trip in southern california. Eurekans would never survive on the highways of San Francisco and Los Angeles. They'd probably pull off to the shoulder lanes and cry miserably and smoke a joint or two. Which is why many of the people here in north california..especially in humboldt county.. Where eureka is in.. They moved up here b/c they couldn't handle the "traffic" in the city.. I translate that as 'we couldnt drive so I moved up here' and as what I've been hearing from locals around this town.. that is called 'washed-up eurekans'..

test #1

this is a mobile test blog

Overdressed & overpriced?

What an interesting night it was last night.. i was invited to go bowling with my 1st friend that i made here in Eureka, Laura. She transferred from her job at a jewelry job to next door at Claire's as a manager. Congrats to her. and Congrats to Caila (i think that's how you spell her name) who is leaving Claire's to go Redding. I'm jealous of her. i want to move out too. heh.

Anyways, it was Caila's going away & bday party.. and Laura invited me. I needed to get out of my house. im fucking getting tired of just hanging out on myspace 12 hours each day. That's the problem with this town.. there's nothing to do. For me anyways.

I parked the car outside the bowling lanes building. scared about where to park it. looked for a good well lit spot. yeah. right between 2 busted up & fucked up cars. great. i hesitated on walking to the front. i saw a bunch of guys. typical eurekans. dressed all in black and stuff. trying to be punk? idk. but there i was.. dressed in ripped jeans, a bright blue plaid dress shirt under a navy hollister hawaii shirt. yeah i was a bit scared. i didn't want them to approach me for what i was wearing. there's alot of scary things that happen in this town.. from what i heard. i pretended to talk on my cellphone as i walked to the door, ignoring their faces.
Inside the building. it was busy. it was 'cheap - strobelight - bowling - night'. it wasn't cheap actually. the flat rate for the entire night of unlimited bowling was $12, including shoes. wow. i got there at 10:45pm. I questioned Laura and Caila if i should pay that ridiculous amount. The person that worked there was a fucking bitch. Laura tried inputing my name onto the bowling lane computer. I bowled just once with my silver puma shoes. The bowling attendant came up and yelled saying i have to pay. duh. it was a fucking 12 bucks. I asked if i could just pay for one game. there was a sign that said one game was $1.50 and shoe rental was $2.50. I didnt wanna pay. i dont even have time. i had to pick up jeff at work at 12pm. the guy said i couldn't just hang around and loiter. he yelled that every 10 minutes on the loudspeaker throughout the night. bitch. and so i eventually paid the $12 with my debit card. ugh. but i bowled. Laura & Caila played for 5 rounds already.. and so i played.. and caught up. i made a strike the first official bowl i did. woohoo! and i think i made one more strike later on.. anyways... after 10 rounds.. it was finished. and Brandy and her brother Rob arrived. they got bowling shoes and paid .. and started bowling. unfortunately for me, the game wasnt reset for all of us and when we inputed Brandy and Rob's name into the bowling lane computer.. it allowed them to catch up and thus, i waited while the two bowled 10 rounds each. it was 11:45pm by the time they finished.. and i bowled once or twice after.. such a bargain for $12. I doubt i'll do that ever again. I had to leave. to pick up jeff. I wasn't sure if i could return that night after i picked up jeff. But i didnt think he wanted me to return.. since he got off from 9 hours of work. yeah. so that was that night.
