Broken WaSteLanD

I love the trading system that Wasteland and other losangeles based thrift stores offer. I take a pile of my old but goodies clothes and trade or get cash / check for them. Unfortunately my recent sell at Wasteland has but a dent in our relationship.

Last Sunday I went to Wasteland and traded my clothes and received a check that bounced.. blah. I was super pissed at first but then realized this shit happens.

So I went to my banker (Wells Fargo) to figure out how to avoid this situation from ever happening again.

I want to share this info with you so you don't receive a return check fee like i did.

Since Wasteland banks with Wells Fargo like myself, the next time i receive a check from them i will deposit it with a teller. Wells Fargo can then check right away to make sure the company has sufficient funds.

Now if you don't bank with Wells Fargo i am not sure what you would have to do, but to save yourself from a migraine i would ask your bank what is the best way to avoid a check from bouncing.

Chase the white rabbit

Everyday Productions presents CHASE THE WHITE RABBIT bike ride.

It is taking place Thursday night cost free.

It has become a new trend in losangeles to hop on your fixed gear and stroll around to local dive bars. Some find the bike packs slightly annoying since they block streets for a few minutes while the 100 some riders pass during a green light, but hey at least they are fighting obesity :)

Frugal Fashion

losangeles isn't all about the haute Hollywood or the beautiful Beverly Hills crowd... there's also the trend-worthy thrifts too. From Buffalo Exchange to Goodwill, we can look like a million bucks - well, some do anyways. But now, there is another thrifty way of getting new clothes for FREE! It's called Swapping. Same concept as swapping clothes with your friends when you get tired of something... though now you have tons of other "friends" to swap with. Check out this video I came across from a blog on Mint.com:



 So if you have clothes that Buffalo or Crossroads didn't want, take it over to the closest clothes swap meet up near you! CLOTHESSWAP

Possibly the Best Fish Taco in Los Angeles...

Welcome to "Best Fish Taco in Ensenada"... Possibly the best damn fish taco in losangeles too!Located in Silverlake/Los Feliz area on Hillhurst Avenue and Camero Street.

The simplicity of this joint is so refreshing... Life is stressful as is, the last thing you want to do is read a damn novel for what should be a simple menu to eat from. So Voila, I present to you their awesome menu:

So when you get your order, it's just fish/shrimp and tortilla... you fill the rest at the condiment bar. Their selection of salsas are by Sessy's Salsa - the only comment I have on their salsa is that their hot needs to be HOTTER.

Bottom Line - The specialized fish/shrimp tacos are AMAZING... The fish is far better than the shrimp. But do try both.

Also had the pleasure of meeting Joseph and Elena (Helena?) seen above... Thanks again for the free taco vouchers!!! You guys will definitely be seeing me again =)

LA Food Trucks Wars

Move aside beloved bacon-wrapped hot dog street vendors, there's a new honcho in town. These new fighters are bringing out the big boy guns - with more variety and around the clock availability. You can find some stationed out on streets with make-shift eating areas while watching a flat screen T.V. on their trucks.I was on Sawtelle Boulevard yesterday for dinner and saw these three food trucks ready for action. I ended up getting a Korean Beef Burrito from Party Q'sadilla... YUM! Go follow them on twitter... just follow these hyperlink:

Nom Nom - Serves “Banh Mi”, or Vietnamese Sandwiches, and other Vietnamese-inspired dishes. Vizzi - innovates cooking styles from California to Oregon and the Philippines - vegetarian friendly. Party Q-sadilla - Korean-Mexican fusion. 




Or you can just look for them on the following sites:

Hollywood's New Classy Joint - BARDOT

From what was the drug/douche infested electronic after-hours spot "Spider Club" to today's charming upscale "Bardot"... Kudos to the new owner of this establishment. I've always known it had potential to be a classy joint. Now it is.  

Great vibe, crowd, decor, various live music performances in the large patio area, no ridiculous bottle-required booths because it's on a first come first serve basis, pretty cocktail servers... Basically how Hollywood SHOULD BE. 

The only teeth grinding aspect is the Hollywood priced drinks and the $20/parking. FYI - I would park in the lot one block east of Vine which charges $10 unless you hit jackpot with street parking.

Otherwise, it's a great lounge - perfect for birthdays... I had a little Asian glow going on last Saturday with my friend Amanda celebrating her friend Blake's birthday. Happy 30th!

Electric Daisy Carnival for the Electro Heads!

Went to EDC on Saturday night... I have to say I was a bit disappointed with the reknowned DJ's track selections like Benny Benassi/Armin Van Buuren/Roger Sanchez but pleasantly surprised by Groove Armada/MSTRKRFT. With that said, I still think the rave scene is experiencing "technical difficulties" these days. We need to take it back to 1999!

More artwork was visible all around the giant playground from previous years. Perhaps next year Sarah can join and get us all in for free! LOL =p

But gotta love the dancers at each stage for live entertainment! This was earlier in the day hanging out at the Drum & Bass stage...

Just don't be stupid... be safe and have fun!

-Dee
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

adding on
The damage of EDC : (2 people in intensive care) (75 people in comatose)... what the fuck is wrong with you idiots.
The mission of raves has been absent well past 99'. Growing up with two older sister( 10yr and 8yr age gap) that were present at the begning and end of raves. I hold onto the old rules and beliefs of being a raver.

( My sister on the left )

what is today is not raving it is a bunch of junkies finding a spot to do their damage. mission accomplished. well done you scum of America. well done.

LoadED..bang bang

Loaded is a new bar on Hollywood. This spot was once Tiny's which was a punk dive bar.

Loaded tries to give the same punk vibe as Tiny's did with over sized pictures of the Sex Pistols and other punk bands. In actuality they are just main stream trying to sell an image to lure people in.

But hey.. they have live entertainment!!!

ill drink to that.. (wearing a vintage cha cha shirt - thank mom)

Getty

 

(wearing Whitley Kros cutt off shorts/ Joie soft shirt / Wild Pair sandals /Cheap Monday shades)

Being a total goof at the Getty in Brentwood. Classy.

The Getty is a great place to spend a sunny day. They have a cafeteria, but if your tight on money they have a beautiful garden where you can set up a picnic. The view of losangeles is amazing on a clear day( no smog)

                                    

    Currently the Getty is exhibiting 

The Spectacular Art of Jean-Léon Gérôme  June 15–September 12, 2010.

Which is truly an awesome showing. The vivid colors and attention to detail in every painting is unreal.

Detachable hoodie

While having a drink at bar 107 in downtown losangeles I noticed this awesome hood. It is a detachable hood that you can accessorize with any outfit. ( Don't know the designers name. Waiting for that info. will post once received) This hood is especially awesome because it is being worn by one of the members from  

The Funderstorm

BAR 107

Probably one of the "hipper" dive bars in Downtown losangeles. Packed pretty much all days of the week, two bar areas, small dance floor in the back, great music selection, photobooth, one bathroom per gender, no smoking area (walk outside), cheap drinks, attentive bartenders, random-ass interior decor with a HIT OR MISS crowd. With all that said, this place smells pretty bad. Just make sure you are liquored up before you walk in.

EDISON vomit

Edison bar in downtown is a part of the historical revamping of downtown losangeles. The decor is a 1920 flapper burlesque theme with silent movies playing on every blank wall.

                                                          Pixies offering poison in a bottle.

But don't be fooled by the pretty interior. This bar has a stench to it. It smells like assholes, and douches.

The staff discriminates and acts as if they are better then you. Their dress code is strict and bizarre. My best guy friend wasn't let in due to his attire. He was wearing classic Converses / black Zara slacks / Joe's Jeans sheer long sleeve. What shocks me is that another guy was let in wearing an American Eagle shirt/ blue jeans / classic Converse. .. really?

I will never go here again ..vomit

THE EDISON

The only good thing mentioning is the venue itself like Hannah mentioned. Classy 20's decor, spacious and they put on burlesque performances once in a while.

Weekends are a no-no, they have this ridiculous line that is usually a one hour minimum wait. I'm going to probably call out everybody right now but whoever waits in this line lives a sad, sad life or you just don't know any better... pobrecitos. So let me be clear - this place is for douchebags on the weekends.

Although Happy Hours are considerable being that they have great promotions such as (i) $1 cocktail drinks and (ii) $2 beers in the summer... so say no to weekends children!
