Well, just as I figured.....the morning brought TB'ers bright eyed and bushy tailed with limited sleep! I heard someone stirring and Mel and I were both waking up as my phone went off and hers followed right after.  She's like "oh it's just my phone" and I am like, "no it is mine".  Mel a…

It comes as no surprise to most that my time here in LA this week would include at least one, probably two trips to Disneyland!  I did not realize that fellow TB, Warren also has a Disneyland annual pass.   The plan was to meet and ride as much as we could in Warren's short window of…

All of us girls woke up by a julz txt message. I don’t remember what it was somewhere on lines of “GOOD MORNING GET YOUR ASS UP” HAHAHAHA I laid down for a bit until i join with the others in Angel’s room. We talked the discussed the rest of the day. I know definitely we all needed to e…

After a short night's sleepover at Angel's in Irvine, Mel and I headed up to Hermosa Beach to meet with Sebastian while Angel, Erin, and Julz went to Torrance to secure our hotel stay for the night.  Mel and I were on a secret mission:  to get Julz a birthday cake.  We had a mole, Ji…

My friend Lyzette sent me an eVite with the caption BEER PRESSURE! Well, that sure caught my attention. It was an invitation to go to Alpine Village during Oktoberfest. I had never been there, but I had heard about it. So I answered that I would go. I am not a big fan of beer, but I am not one to s…

I had extended my stay in Torrance for a couple days to help take care of my Mom after she was released from the hospital and Alice asked if I had time to meet for coffee before I left which I was very excited about!  I had pretty much spent a whole week at the hospital round the clock and exc…

After getting up at the crack of dawn to get a long work day in before leaving for Los Angeles, I get a phone call from my darling mother who inquires as to my arrival date.  "You aren't arriving TODAY, are you?," she quips.  "Uh,  yeah, planning to get on the road after traffic,…

Wow...my second day of waking up with no alarm clock. LOVING IT!!  I decided to enjoy the lazy day ahead and spend some time with my parents.  Tuesday is my Dad's only day off during the week so I wanted to take advantage of that....somehow though, he seemed to spend most of it outside pl…

Hiking in Manoa Falls. Fly the back home the same day...soaking wet!

Places I have seen, things I have done

Gyu-Kaku Restaurant is a Japanese BBQ dining experience where you are the chef.  My cousin and I went to the Torrance location which is in a strip mall next to sushi joint and a ramen shop on Crenshaw Blvd. between Lomita and Skypark.  We didn't have reservations on a Friday night but it …

Sydney is such a great place to visit. Opera house by the harbour is very lively from daylight, and even more fun at night. Enjoy the music by the Opera House,see the wave splashing,and look up the stars at night while you're having your dinner.

This is my hometown, thought it would be fun to show a bit of The City of Angeles.

We got bored one day, so I made my husband go to the beach with me (which is 5 miles away from the house).  Even though it was June, it was still too cold to swim.  Not only is the water cold in California, but it's also kinda gross.  But playing on the beach is fun.&n…
