I just came to terms with the fact that someone who continually lies, really is a liar. Such a shame it took me 23 years to realize this, could have saved myself a lot of trouble. For someone who's often labeled "negative" and "mean" I sure did want to believe the best in others. Look out now, I guess.

RT @OscarPRGirl In every good pr person there is a hint of detective.
RT @WhoWhatWear Respectfully disagree: there's a great deal of detective!

Audiotistic? Wantttttt *sigh*

After hearing a couple rumors, I had pretty much assumed Boys Noize was set to play Voyeur's 1 Year Anniversary Party, Tuesday. While I do love me some BN, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw Voyeur's Johnny Shockey walking three backpack toting men across the street. One was very tiny, too tiny, to be anyone other than the most preshy of preshies, LAIDBACK LUKE. BBM sent. The line around the building goes crazy, and everyone settles in to our favorite EDM heaven, for THE BEST 1ST BIRTHDAY ANYONE'S EVER BEEN TO.

LBL takes to the decks as if he's playing another 60,000+ crowd, but to San Diego's luck, he's seriously within an arm's reach... as if I didn't love him enough for bringing back what EDC is REALLY about (great music and good vibes.)

Insane passion, insane presence, INSANE PERFORMANCE.

If you don't know, now you know. Voyeur AND Laidback Luke? Kind of a big deal ;)

So Rave kid Christmas has come and past, and I don't know if it's me growing up, ravers getting younger, or a little of both, but I'm sad to say I was a little disappointed. Did I have fun? Of course. Was it epic? Definitely. But something wasn't quite right, and I could tell from the get-go, this time was going to be different.

Did you notice they didn't search your bags? "Do you have a pacifier?" was all that I was asked. No, but I probably have illegal substances, that's ok right? I could have had a WEAPON in my adorably presh Hello Kitty backpack and NO ONE would have known. (*DISCLAIMER* I DID NOT HAVE A WEAPON.) But doesn't that seem a bit sketch right off the bat? Exactly.

Upon arrival the atmosphere appeared to be less happy-go-lucky and more i-want-to-get-on-that-fucking-field-and-will-do-whatever-it-takes-to-get-there. (READ: absolute chaos). We were on the coliseum floor by 5, in time for Afrojack, but by about 6:30/7 I was in full-blown PANIC ATTACK mode, due to crazy raver antics. I legitimately thought I might die in the middle of a rave riot. All I have to say is, THANK GOD FOR LIL JON.

Luckily for me, my night got better. Here's a few thanks to the people that made the clusterfuck that was EDC 2010 great...

Afrojack- I like you better when you don't talk :) but I fell in love with you over this song.

Laidback Luke- I LOVE that you sing along with us, and your set was exactly what EDC is all about, great music and good vibes... more about you later ;)


Ducksauce- The inflatable duck seriously made my night, and I was FRONT ROW CENTER  for this set, including the oh-so-fun Barbara Streisand


...And of course all the friends I DID and DIDN'T meet up with <3

...women that express themselves. A young Saudi woman was shopping the other day, and I couldn't help but notice her beautiful vintage Gucci scarf. What stood out was not the scarf itself, but how she was wearing it, as a hijab, and I thought it was hands down awesome. Go her for both embracing her culture, and her passion for fashion. Why can't we have our cake and eat it too?

I wish I had a picture to show you, it was so much more of a statement in person!

PS- I couldn't help but think of the Abu Dabi women that appeared in SATC2!

Looking to score? Cluboholics (among other sites) are STILL giving away tickets. It'll take a bit of a social media race to get you entered in the drawing, but clearly worth it. Two-day tickets are up to, what, $150 or so after fees? So if you're down for a little friending and following action, check out the official rules @ cluboholics.com

She wants him to care more about her, but he knows she doesnt care about him.

I don't need a $1000 dress, but a couple $80 t-shirts every once in a while couldn't hurt anyone...


VINCE is <3

Felix Cartal Summer Mixtape 2010? Yes, please.

I'm only about half-way through, but so far its got a fun disco air to it. It's going to be your much needed break from the bangers and the over-thought tracks that seem to have infiltrated even top-40 stations (READ: Guetta).

To many, Twitter is kinda my thing. Social media is something I'm good at and actually enjoy, so help a sister out! MTV is holding a contest for a "Twitter Jockey" to be their social voice. Come on, you know it suits me.
