BLD. Breakfast of Champions.
BLD. It only took all day for someone to tell me. “It stands for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner”.
Ohhhhh. Hellllo Lightbulb.
Although it was packed, the wait at BLD was less than 15 minutes which was SO crucial because I was starving. The atmosphere in BLD is pretty, super clean, chatty, and a bit ‘entertainment’ industry if you will. [Nothing like Red Car in Torrance...

It's like asking a hooker for a math lesson.

I forgot how we ended up here. We’re either celebrating or one of us is apologizing. Yes, the essence of our friendship and all can be forgiven with food or hugs. Before you ask, no you don’t get the same courtesy. For some reason we went to a Italian place which he really doesn’t enjoy to do because a) he makes better pasta and b) there’s no reason to pay...

If you don’t like this one.
After having 1000 menus from this place scattered among our apt, I started really ordering from this place a couple weeks ago cuz I’m lazy and I didn’t feel like washing the dishes. Tragedy I know.
The first time I ordered I got the Thai Salad, Chicken Satay, Green Curry [actually they mistakenly delivered this — I...

Especially if we’re sitting in a completely empty theatre. Can you believe it? I mean, Last House on the Left isn’t THAT old and it was a 7:40 showing at downtown Culver City. Anyways, thank our lucky stars and probably their’s cuz we were hella loud + annoying. The ticket girl said “Are you sure you guys want to watch this? It’s really gruesome.” There was a warning that said...

It's the life you wish you had.
“Despite barely scraping together 3 million viewers a week, the show has become the most talked-about, culturally relevant series on television. “It’s not a conventional TV hit in terms of viewership. Its numbers are low and it loses to stuff like The Secret Life of the American Teenager, a far more wholesome show that runs on cable,” Gay says. “But in terms of having a ‘moment,’...

Remember a while ago when that baby whore Chantelle Stedman got knocked up by little boy Alfie? And she swore she was a virgin and he took her v-card and they want to live happily ever after?
And then after the story broke, a huge line of boys claimed to say that they hit that also with no rubber?
And Alfie was devasted cuz they cancelled Power Rangers. oops i mean, might...

On Tuesdays, you can get any bottle of wine for 20 bucks. Yes any. Granted you can probably get the same bottle from Ralph’s for 8 but who cares. You’re paying for environment. and yes its a really snazzy one. One star off for not being open at 11. Do people not drink at 11am? Obviously not. :-/ Super great place to grab a glass of wine or do a white + sprite or red...

Best Restaurant of 2009. Tasca on 3rd.

Preface: never a big fan of tapas aka small dishes aka sharing aka family style aka how asian people have been eating for the last 2000 years.
This started off not so well. We sat literally for 10 minutes straight without any bread or any sort of ‘i’m sorry. i’ll be right with you’. Ick. In my mind, i already had bad feelings about this place. But...

I’ve been coveting a denim jacket for a couple weeks now since I first saw it in multiple fashion NY fashion blogs. Then Kim wore one to My House on Reggie’s birthday. [do you love how I act like I’m on first name basis with these people?]
Anyway, how hard can it be to buy a fucking denim jacket? I went to Forever 21 — no jacket. Wet Seal — nope. Guess — nope. Lucky Brand —...
Dear guy on the street wearing the Ed Hardy...

I will NEVER date anyone who wears Ed Hardy! Men + Rhinestones + Elaborate Rose/Skull Designs = so unacceptable. This isn’t Rock of Love.

Given that we’re on a health trip right now. it is so hard finding a restaurant that fits our needs. i’ve been wanting to go to 2117 for a while especially after my failed attempt Sunday and ended up @ Joan’s on Third [gross. digusting. horrible place]. The main selling point for me was that 2117 uses natural and organic ingredients which at least...

While I am making progress on my size, we all know that working out makes cellulite worse. Cellulite has little to do with weight but more like stretched skin.

Remember the 152232 page text message that CB got prior to beating RiRi? UsWeekly [not National Enquirer. UsWeekly] has sources that say Chris Brown received the text novel from his MANAGER. Word is, he’s been being ‘touched’ by her since he was 16. No wonder RiRi was pissed yo! She was moving Chris away from the dark side :-/

It really doesn't get cheaper than this.

Where else can you get 2 lemongrass chicken steaks [it was so damn good], pasta, salad, iced tea + baked spaghetti bolognese and ice tea for under 12 bucks. Really where? This is why asian moms/dads hate american restaurants. I mean, damn look at the prices. When you’re used to getting a T-Bone 16 oz steak for 8 bucks, why would you eat anything else?

“Rihanna is a role model for young people. She gave this statement to the police. Pictures of her bruised and bloodied have been widely disseminated.

For her own sake, and for the millions of girls who look up to her, this...

MIA popped her kid on 2/11/2009 and she named him Ickitt.

Ickitt? Oh. That’s a mighty fine name. Not gay at all. Nope. A name that rhymes with PICKITT, FLICKITT, STICKITT, LICKITT, and DICKITT just screams winner.
UPDATE: False alarm. MIA made statement that she didn’t name the kid Dickitt. Oops I mean, Ickitt.

I decided that if I was really going to stick with this diet. I’d better go grocery shopping. Buy some veggies, cereal, fish, meat - no hot dogs. Processed meats are a no no :(
Red meat is technically a no-no also but like I said before, portions and moderation. Besides, NY strips were 6.99 a pound. ZOMG. I got four really great steaks for way cheap.

Diet Q & A: Is it safe to eat sushi on a diet?
More recently, one of my good friends decided to go on a diet. Hell, actually two of my good friends. Boring I know. And it came up that sushi was ok to eat. Common sense will tell you, of course sushi is less fattening and heavy than say a loaded potato, or pasta but how healthy is it? More importantly, how fattening is it compared to other foods? Based on quick research, a spicy tuna roll is...

Diet Q & A: Does Yoga help lose weight?
The answer is no. and maybe. When I was walking to pick up lunch today [yes walking – what a shock] I was thinking..man, I really hate strenuous exercise. Although I am fine with running, I really prefer brisk walks and more recently, yoga. Yes I’m turning into a desperate housewife. But it begged the question, does yoga really help me lose weight? I mean, being cooped up in a hot, hot room...
