She is using the photos to launch a new website so stay tuned! I also got to meet an awesome new photographer named Bang Truong which will come in handy when I am ready to launch my new products over the next few years. I like seeing how different people shoot and edit photos, so overall it was a productive day.

He took us all over SD to get some unique shots!I love his use of color, angles and lighting. Here is one of the jackets and pictures from yesterday. I can’t wait to see them all :)

First of all, I had no idea these places even existed… it reminded me of the Cabo airport, so much going on. It had like nice sunglass stores, then make up stores, then normal grocery store items,  but then live fish, crabs and catfish? I have to admit I got a little sad :( All of the animals were alive but barely. Some crabs were piled on top of each other in boxes, barely moving, foaming at the mouth. Where is PETA when I need them? Crabs were literally crawling around in buckets and you’re supposed to pick one out the same way you would pick out an apple? You simply select your live crab and toss it in your cart. It was an interesting experience to say the least. I caught a few glances my way, actually a lot… I am sure they were wondering what this white girl with big curly hair was doing playing with their dinner, aka the live crabs.

I just had this sent to me from the D1 Grand Prix event I worked a few months ago that shows on Fox, Spike TV, ESPN and a few other sports channels! We filmed a few commercials for the event so who knows what will pop up next.

Drift racing is pretty crazy, the event was suppperrr exciting! It was also hilarious meeting all the Japanese race car drivers. They are kinda scary actually, so touchy feely and in your face.

The same day they held the Gumball Rally which is a bunch of celebs that drive super nice cars across the US. I was jealous because after Anaheim they went to Vegas!

Anyway check the 40 second mark! Don’t you love how I snagged the most conservative racing outfit there? So glad I was the first one to arrive those outfits were awful!

She was the cutest thing ever. I still don’t think anyone is cuter than Britney was in 2002.-2003. What happened? Kids and a husband that’s what.

Anyway, when looking for hot, old school Britney pics, I remembered one of my FAVORITE Britney sites, they have soooo many good pics from photo shoots, performances, magazines etc. I love looking at them and reminiscing… maybe you are a psycho fan too. Check them out Britney lovers! Definitely gym motivation if you check her out in 2002-2003. Photo shoots is my favorite section on the site. So many cute outfit and hair ideas!
