Sara Bareilles is from Eureka

that girl that's been getting popularity from the airwaves, Sara Bareilles, is from Eureka.

yes. THAT Eureka, where i'm currently stuck in.

this is her:


click here to read VH1's artist bio about Sara

and so, people in this town are getting all hyped up about her popularity, saying "oh, she's from Eureka!! blah blah blah." .. no doubt in my mind that she's a great vocalist, but she is one of the good examples i want kids and teens in this town to grow up to be.

....instead of being a pregnant crack whore or pothead.. as what i usually see in this town. and it's sad, and i don't show any pity.

Sara moved to Los Angeles when she was 18 and attended UCLA where she studied and began her musical career. she had an aspiration and it came true.

in the back of her mind as her tour bus travels from city to city.... does she think about wanting to return to Eureka? probably for a show and see family and friends, but is she glad that she left this town? most definitely. and i want to leave this place too. there's just no future for me and anyone with an dream.

give me one good example of potential growth in this area and make me regret what i say. i highly doubt you can think of one. Thanks to all of these hardcore liberal hippies, they just dont want anything to change here, thus it stays the same as small cracks become large enough to be un-fixable. maintenance of new businesses helps the economy. when larger businesses threaten to make smaller businesses actually lose business, that's when it's time to step up and compete, not be lazy.

Sara moved to the city because that's where the money, the people, the success is.

i dont care if you do drugs or have unintentional teenage pregnancy. i advise you not to because if you do eventually get addicted or have a baby, there's just going to be more options for me and others in this world. just say no. Talent can come from small towns such as Eureka, but the only way you can gain success if you bring your talent to a large mass of people that favor your abilities.

think about it.

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2007

OMG. i had an orgasm when i saw Heid's outfit turn into a giant snowflake.

Christmas lights!

Ahh.. I finally put a strand of lights all around my window next to my desk. I love it :)

Tip me bitch :)

Tip me & ill put a little show on for ya. Haha.

~Lor

Goof off.

Breaktime over. Yay.

a little update..

hey everyone.. miss me? probably forgot about me already huh? i hate you. (just joking.) i cant hate people, unless they give me a reason to hate them.

blah.

it's cold. about 50-60 degrees outside. i just came back from Target for necessities (hairspray, conditioner, gum, etc..) bundled up in a scarf, sweater and hat. that's a pretty drastic change from a few days ago when i was down in the southern part of Florida.

I went to Clearwater and Tampa first for Thanksgiving.
Totally went all out during Black Friday. i think my credit card is like almost maxed out. haha.
Later went to Ft. Lauderdale for the remainder of the trip where i visited Miami and my first time to Key West! I took lots of pics, but i dont have time to upload them right now due to the massive workload of assignments i must finish before final exams. blah. i'm going suicidal. have you seen that movie Dead Man On Campus? Yeah, i'll probably end up like that.

I'm tan, from looking at my thighs, it's clear that i got one. i'd show you for a price. hahahah. i'm just jockin' on you. but am i? oh i dont know.

it was hot down in Florida. temperature highs were up to the mid 80's and i loved just feeling the humidity and then getting blasted with cold air with the rental car's Air conditioning.

Did i mention that someone keyed the side of our rental car? LOL. it never ceases to amaze me how idiotic people are down there. I think it was because of those large white barcodes stickered on the side windows. it screams "i'm a tourist or an out-of-towner!". earlier this year back in January, someone broke into our rental car (yes, it did have a sticker on it too) and stole jeff's laptop. It was a few months new and worth at least a $1,000. it was a nightmare to deal with having to cancel our cards and other private information that was stored on it, but the police never found it (he has a new laptop now thanks to his hefty tax refund check). but seriously... something has to happen every time i go down there. but it's definitely not going to stop me from returning tho. i'll just remove that barcode sticker before driving off the rental car lot at the airport. That's a tip for everyone else. make sure you do that.

i need to work out again. i did today. it was brutal. from all of the eating and stuff during the trip, i think i gained a few pounds. i'm up to 141 lbs now. (it may seem small to you, but it's big for me... i made 130lbs my 'average' and normal weight.. but since i've been hitting the gym over the year, i might have to move it up to 135lbs due to the muscle growth i've gained. which reminds me to buy some whey protein supplements at the GNC store. wow, i'm starting to become conscious like my dad a few years ago. haha.

ok so i lied. this wasnt a "little" update, but i'd rather do it as this.

i have a shitload of stuff to type and work on. i so want to quit school after this. but i'm too chicken to do that. haha.

i hope everyone had a great holiday :)

Caribou Coffee!!!!

Heh. Sorry starbucks. But whatevv.

~Lor

In-flight

Oohh.. Pretty. Im actually flying in daylight for a change. Haha. :)

~Lor

G'bye Ft. Lauderdale..

At the airport.. Waitin' for my flight back to cali. Ugh. A stopover at Atlanta, GA first and then back to San Francisco, CA where i'll stay overnight before going back to Eureka. Ewwwww. Haha.

The semester is almost over and i've like already given up midway. Heh. I just cant wait for this year to be over...

Burberry at Sawgrass

Gotta love those discounted designer duds ;)

~Lor

Bal Harbour!!

Yayyyyyy. I love this place! Im a shopping slut. Hahaha. :D (with good taste)

~Lor

Starbucks lid toppers!!

Omg!!! The Tampa starbucks has lid toppers for the hot drinks at the drive-thru!! These toppers are green sticks used for stirring and also to prevent spillage. Im not sure how long these been out on the starbucks market, probably for a while in the cities. Too bad the northern california region wont ever get any of these cool new stuff except San Francisco and Sacramento. Why do i have to (temporarily) reside in the middle of fucking nowhere (which i constantly keep telling myself.. Haha)?

~Lor

Black Friday goods!

Ok.. So after waking up at 5:30 AM with only a few minutes to get ready and leave before 6:00 AM.. We headed off to Staples where we saw a huge mob of people in line. Thankfully, i had 2 other people on my team. We went to the mall, where i finally got my black velvet blazer!! Its to fuckin' nicccceeeeee. We got loads of other shit too that somewhat filled out the back of the van and emptied out our wallets. Hah.

I only got a few minor cuts and bruises from this morning's doorbuster rushes. Those bitches bite damn! :P

Sunset over the Gulf of Mexico

The sand is white and soft. The water is pale blue. And the sky is pink.

~Lor

Clearwater!

Yeahh. Im here.

~Lor

Waiting to board..

At the San Francisco airport.. 4.5 hour flight to Atlanta and then to Tampa. Im actually staying in Clearwater, which is like 30-40 minutes away. Did you know that Hulk Hogan and his family had a house there and filmed their VH1 show there, but they moved to Miami.

I was told it was like 83°F earlier today. Oohhh snapp! I cant wait to jump in the Gulf of Mexico. :)

Velvet blazer

So.. After watching various episodes of Tim Gund's Guide to Style on BRAVO, im realizing i gotta get minimal on the types of clothes i buy.

I have a shitload of t-shirts that i dont wear (why, because there's no point wearing them here in northern cali compared to when i'd wear a different shirt each day back when i was going to my classes back on campus).

I need a black velvet blazer. I saw a really nice one by Marc by Marc Jacobs.

I think i'll add that to my Christmas list this year. :)

~Lor

Make sure to recycle your bottles.. Lol

Wow. Told ya there was alot..

~Lor

Champagne!

I lost count on how many bottles were popped.. I came to the party late since i closed at starbucks tonight..

~Lor

Pass the Cheer

Ill pass some cheer. Bahhh.
