â�œDon't go through life, grow through life.â�

Haven’t updated in quite a while just busy trying to get by in these hard times so working whenever I can.So this is a review since I haven’t really been doing too much.

So on August 19^th Vero and I drove all the way to Fresno for Warped Tour we got there about 1130am but went to the mall because it was way too hot omg it was 107 we are use to the hottest being 90 degrees. I love their mall we are planning a shopping trip when it cools down lol. We arrived at the venue maybe 1230 or 1 we got there right when Aiden was playing we tried to rush in but barely missed them. I finally got my Skate 4 Cancer shirt. I love the work Rob Dyder is doing it’s a cause close to my heart . the heat was just too much we escaped to the savemart center theater which had air conditioning we saw frank from the gallows in there which was surprising since a lot the bands weren’t walking around freely like the SF stop because it was just too hot!!! The first band we were able to see was InThis Moment I told vero she would love them and she did the lasttime I saw them was for Ozzfest yes a long time ago the had a small corwd and but they didn’t care they said if we give it our all they would too. They ended coming to the crowd to play well some ran a circle pit around Vero was in Ahh. I had totally forgot it was Vero first warped so we made a pack to leave after blacktide which was only and hr and half before the end since Tyson from SKSK wasn’t even there so I didnt mind missing their set. Black Tide was great even though they had a small crowd they gave it their all and I’m glad Vero is now a fan and it not just because Steven Spencer looks like Jacob lol All n all im glad we went love driving to shows its like a mini roadtrip. I wanted to go to Shoreline the next day but work wanted me at 10am so I didn’t want to drive all the way out to get there for like the last 2 bands.

After warped my work schedule totally changed they want me to go in at nights which is so weird to wait around all day so I haven’t been going to shows . I was really bummed that no one got back to me about going to Papa Roach which was yesterday have been waiting forever to se them live I was like might as well go into work until Monday afternoon I look at my phone to see and email from a unknown address saying my Papa Roach tickets have been waiting for me at the local radio station and the office closed in like 4 hrs so needless to say I first jumped up and down called work said I couldn’t go in my boss is so cool!! Ran down got tickets and invited Rose to go We got there late like always missed saving abel but didn’t care I was there for P Roach !! All of a sudden I see the Papa Roach banner in the back OMG its still daylight I was upset they played so early and no one was into their set but me and a few faithful fans beside me Since it was daylight I had to only use my camera very selective since they deemed it a professional style whatever. P Roach gave their all they played all my favorites and closed with of course Last Resort which everyone started to get with the groove of it lol.

So Hinder came on the Nickelback it seemed everyone there was for nickelback they knew every word me and Rose felt so weird lol I wanted to leave after P roach but decided to stay since tix were free. Nickelback brought the lead singer from Hinder and Jacoby back on stage and sang Highway to Hell by AC/DC. I liked how nickelback talked to the crowd and such it did at times feel like a jam session I liked that fact. We left before the encore and got right outside when nickelback came back on stage we looked at each other laughed and walked to the car and beat all the traffic. So no big shows planned yet maybe Trivium later this month. I am going to be going to Gardening ,Not Architecture’s sows that are part of the EIY tour I believe 2 shows for sure still thinkng about the Stockton and SF show

If you are in the Bay Area them come out

7/15 Red Devil Lounge SF

Live For Today...Plan For Tomorrow...Party Tonight..!!!

,So Here is the the Warped Tour Journal Lol recovering from sunburn so couldnt really do this yesterday. I was on the fence about going the person who i planned on going with backed outt hey rather skate instead bummer finally found someone on THURSDAY to go and that was Sookie yeah it was her first Warped Tour so i was glad i could be there with her. We left around 9 got int he citry at 10 but parked really far like a mile or so away which was okay becasue we didnt have to wait in line . We first went to the infamous Blow up chart and the only person Sookie wanted to see was bigD and 3oh!3 so we had soo much time to kill i wanted to see Escape The Fate and Aiden but saw that the blackout was on schedule not sure if it was the right band. We got to ETF late so not too many good pics of them

then i thought might as well check out Brokencyde big mistake the Security at wapred SF were jerks one taps me not really but grabs my shoulder pointing at my camera saying so u have a photopass WTF the chick in front has the same camera but wearing acorset and gets a way and they threaten to not only kick me out but take my "film" yea like we are in the 80's he said he'll be watching me and thats whats going to happend if he sees again whatever. So i was really bummed and Pissed at the same time. Warped tour time was going so slow i wasnted to really leave but promised Sookie will see her band then i saw it was time for aiden WOW great performance saved Warped for me Sookie kept saying these people are pushing i said push back she never been in a mosh pit or wall of death theres a first for everything right! i didnt want to bring out my camera cause i didnt want to get kicked out so i used a PS for aiden .

O quick story some girls saw that people were taking pics with nick cause he came out a lil ealry to watch the band before them they kept saying "Angel Angel can we get a pic too" i tried so hard not to laugha s say get them right they finally got a pic with him i think he might have said thats not my name but i cant be too sure but i was funny. After Aiden was The Blackout i was still not sure if it was the band i was thinking of until i saw Sean OMG fangirl moment there was like no one at there set but the guys still gave their all. That what i like about them it doesnt matter if it 10,000 people or just 10 they still give it their best. So i was like u know i see a alot of people here with DSLR without the passes So if im geting kicked out at least its for The Blackout i got some great shots

i met sean after and told him i have been waiting 2 years to see them live(they are from the UK) he said thanks i asked if theya re doing whole tour he said no theya re going back to do festivals but to check out the band who will be replaceing them love hime hes so nice.

After that i set to go but 3oh!3 still hadnt coem on so we waited then i saw blacktide sksk all played at same time i was so bummed but hey im going again so not too bummed saw 3oh!3 or rather heard them then it was time to go home . Warped this year was filled little snipets of moments and not like years before when it took a wj=hole week to talke about it with your friend but hey maybe it me getting older giving warped another chance in August see you there!

Are there any Music tours your dying to see
other then Warped tour?

For a loser, Vegas is the meanest town on earth. ~Hunter S. Thompson

So it's been like a week since I have been back from Vegas .Vegas was really fun not CRAZY just fun lol. I visited Rose and my niece Wednesday the second day I was there. The first day we had a champagne brunch which they kept filling my glass every time I set it down which fun had the party started by 11am Little to everyone's knowledge but that was my first time ever drinking champagne and I do like. Then we went straight to the casinos I was over it after the first 2 hrs so I decided to skip out and go watch the hangover which was hilarious and got me more than ever into the Vegas mood. I headed back to casino and played a lil more we got back to our hotel at like 3 am and I wanted a grilled cheese sandwich lol. O yea we stayed at The Excalibur.

So the second day was driving to north Vegas to see Rose and baby we kidnapped Rose and had dinner at the Cannery which is a pin up themed local casino loved it but not the food. Drove Rose back home came back to just get continuously carded one after the other ,but what can you do when u look 12. we headed back to our hotel to stay in casino til 6 am I went to bed they stayed playing til noon I cant gamble that much. The last night there Rose and walked the strip did some shopping got a cute new piggy bank shaped like and ice cream cone and a martini shaker.

I fell in love with a purse and necklace at the Betsey Johnson store but the sale associate was rude and ignored me right when I was at the counterL so I tld everyone there must be another Betsey store and stormed out that was the only time the associate took notice of me eww. We walked about and came back at 3 ish and again at 4am I wanted a grilled cheese so I called room service and they were quick and nice. The next day we back dove Rose home and headed to one last casino before our flight out. Luckily I didn't have to work til this pass Monday so I slept thurs -fri and on Friday I went to see Year One if you read the bible or have knowledge you will think its hilarious or you might be like poor Max and be lost and think its stupid. So this week is work standard and boring Sacramento tomorrow and Warped Tour on Saturday I wasn't really going to go but decided to why not do not know what to wear but at my age it and this being my hundredth warped I don't really care.O well .Need to sleep roadtrip up north with my Brother should be interesting hopefully he'll sleep the WHOLE way.

What Bands are you excited to see at this years Warped Tour?

Sales,Warped, Vegas OH MY!

So I have been hard at work making hair bows many different variety now Great For Summer and Warped Tour he he my first date of warped tour is in like 13 days yikes I know I don’t really plan outfits even though I know I should but I also find something else right when I have something put together. Still don’t know who is going with me I have an extra ticket but don’t want to hurt anyways feeling L and I hate going solo especially for warped. Anyone else going to warped this year?

Here’s a sneak peak of the bows these are just a small collection.

I also have been trying to get Warhol boutique up again the dresses go so FAST sometimes I don’t even want them to go but I need the space in my closet and as for my model Sukie uhmm she’s been fired! We are not on any bad terms just that I take my photography seriously and need someone who will at least act professional you know .Its so hard to find someone in your life that will be there to help you follow your dream instead of stealing them. So no portraits or fashion pics coming anytime soon just live shots and nature till I find someone new who I can mesh with. Heres a few og the dresses that will be on sale soon.

I must go now I leave for Vegas gosh in 4 hrs!!! and still need to pack too just like me to wait .

Promise I will be taking tons of pics im also going to be eating with royalty well sort of at the jousting dinner at Excalibur lol.

Lots of Love Sprinkles

Any summer getaways planned?

No Doubt Fresno

With Jamba Juice in hand Vero and I set out to Fresno to see NO freakin DOUBT yes we saw them and we will be seeing them again towards the end of their tour.

We got to Fresno early about an hr so we just walked around and I ran into someone from Vegas I knew . We found our seats and they were to die for right in the center. The sounds came on first and they had great energy me and Vero just danced during their set then Paramore came on josh had techniques difficulties and Haley said they would go with out him ,but he came back then again his guitar just didn’t want to corporate so Haley said they might have to cut their set short which did not make the crowd happy they luckily finished their last song. Then Vero and I started to get antsy because duh NO DOUBT was coming up they opened with my favorite song Spider Webs. I loved their clockwork orange theme .Gwen said that she likes to pick one person at every show to point out there was a tie one guy in the higher seats he had their shirt on and uber fan that was front row she brought him on stage and said how she remembered him from previous shows that made his life I bet.

I did get teary during running cause they had montage of all their past earlier shows when they didn’t have a record deal and when they were making their own merch, to believe now they are filling up stadiums.

Gwen then wanted to go through the crowd during I’m just girl and yelled that if anyone touches her she would quit no doubt Vero yelled at the top of her lungs don’t any body touch her lol she finally got people to understand to move out her way and ran to our section and was on our stairs we both freaked out. She went back to the stage and they walked off thinking it was over some people left but me being a concert veteran know its not over till house lights come on. They came back on and now Adrian is wearing a tutu they continue with rock steady and end a show with a group bow. We so didn’t’ want it to end but luckily we will be seeing them again cant wait.

You've got me feeling hella good So let's just keep on dancing

What your summer plans what tour are you most excited to see?

DEMI LOVATO BLOGGER!!!

My photo

One Fun Fact: Theres is a village in Croatia with my name purely coincidental i swear!

Two reasons why I would make a GREAT blogger:

1. I know how to have fun ,but know how to work even harder helped work a local date on warped tour before so know how to be focused and still be able to enjoy myself and make most of an experience.

2.I am a Jill of all trades i have a really amazing memory,can do some amatuer photography,and able to write to catch the audiences attention.

One question I would ask Demi: Hearing her music the are many genres that it can be heard what genre in particular does she pull inspiration from or artist?
