| ToRrAnCe, CaLiFoRniA Welcome one and welcome all...this is my original upbringing domain. Born in the Torrance Memorial Hospital...moved to Gardena til about the 6th or 7th grade...moved to Carson for a bit...and then on to Torrance where I've moved about the city since. It's a great place to live, but I must say...rent prices are skyrocketing...Over $1000/mo for a basic 2-bedroom...it's ridiculous! And there isn't a whole lot to do here...but you can either go south and check out the beautiful views from the cliffs in Palos Verdes...or you can go north to Hermosa Beach and chill on the pier...a couple favorites are Sharky's and Patrick Molloy's. Then you can always go a little farther north and explore the famous Hollywood...do a little star sighting and souveneir buying...or go chill at the "hot-spots" (which i personally find a little boring)...there's the Barfly, Nacional, Star Shoes, Club Ivar, The Standard...and oh so many more places. (I did find Star Shoes to be tons of fun though) After all that fun don't forget to check out the usuals, Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, Universal Studios, Magic Mountain, etc etc...the best Cali has to offer |

| Warren G...my bestest friend ever...I have to say, he's never failed to be a true friend, someone I can always trust, no matter what. That's what's important in life...FriEnDs. |

| Well that is the best picture I can find, of the best mall I've ever been to. The Del Amo Mall...which is about 3 blocks from where i live (how convenient)...and from the last info I know about, this is the largest mall in the Western US, and the 2nd largest in the country! So just imagine how much funn i have here...considering I go here just about EVERY DAY...bad Crystal! But I just can't help myself. I love clothes, what can i say. |
| **And for any of you who are interested, the movie Jackie Brown was filmed here (the whole mall scene), as well as being filmed in the apartment building of a few friends I know. A scene of the show Popular was also filmed here...I'm assuming the first season because when I saw them there the show hadn't even started yet. And that guy from Popular...Bryce sumthin...can we say HOTT...much better in person.** |

| This is my high school logo...couldn't find any pictures of it though...and the graphic above is actually pretty screwed up, but hey...deal with it :) I don't quite have a whole lot to say about my high school...uhmm, Mrs. Shakely was the best teacher I ever had (along with Nora)...I met my bestest friend -> Jennifer, there. I still remember that too...we were in gym class together I think...and then she dissapeared for months! Cuz this *HoTt* dude (who shall go nameless) gave her these insane chicken pox. And when she came back we ended up chillin together, went to the mall, bought matching outfits and took pictures together!! hehe, such cheez! |
 |
| Do these pictures look familiar at all? Look closely... |
 |
| Well if you're a Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan...or a Beverly Hills 90210 (the high school years) fan...then you should recognize this place...yupp, the high school in both tv shows...also known as: |
 |
| Yea, Torrance High...located in the eastern part of Torrance (I live in West Torrance, but I go to North High in...duh North Torrance...there's 4 public high school's altogether). I always wanted to go to this school just because it was sooo much nicer...but never got to...although my ex-boyfriend did go here, so at least i was somewhat associated with it |
 |
 |
| This would be me and Blanca...Warren's girlfriend...she's the super best. Smart, beautiful, successful and filled with love, I'm totally thankful she was brought in my life. |
 |
| And on to Jennifer...we've been friends since our freshman year of high school...but somehow now she's impossible to reach...i don't know what that means, but I'll take it how I can. |
 |
 |
| Here's some of the rest of the crew. Heather, Daniel, Carolina, Dave, Blanca, Robyn, Teri...when I get more pics of people I'll be sure to have them up here...for now, this is what I got. I love you all!! |
