Wow, I’ve been updating more in the past month than I normally do in a year!
BFD this year was pretty fun. The Bravery, The Lovemakers, Social Distortion, and some others I can’t remember anymore, played. But the best part is, our awesome friend Trish hooked us up with VIP tickets so we got to pig out on free food all day!!!
Here’s one of Donna and me
Group shot taken by Trish. Kevin, Daria, Jen, me!!
Donna the boy magnet!
Some guy giving girls free pushup rides. Cuz you know every time I go to an outdoor concert I think, “Man, you know what would make this concert perfect? If someone was giving free pushup rides!”
We left BFD early to meet up with Roxy of the Epoxies before they left for their tour. I had to give her some shirts I made. Here’s one! She put it on right away and looked really cute. This isn’t really the one I’m most proud of, but from what I’m hearing, I think she’s wearing it the most??
I made better ones, but they might not have fit her right. Cuz when she told me her boob size, I thought, “Score! We have the same boobs, so this should be easy.” But when I fit them on myself, I wore a bra. And then I found out that Roxy NEVER wears a bra! So they probably fit differently on her. :-(
Look, it’s us at San Jose Gay Pride!! I decided to skip San Francisco pride this year and just do the San Jose one cuz it’s wayyyyy more mellow and I’m getting too old to party. Next year, I’m getting one of those motorized wheelchairs!
Liz, Mandy, joshe, Jen, me. Josh gets all the ladies!
Okay, now it’s time for the REAL reason you’re reading this post! SUPAYANA pictures!!!
Yana (supayana) came out to stay with us for a few days. Isn’t she cute?
We showed her all the cool sites of San Jose. Like the supermarket!
Yana’s baggage
Yana working on eBay stuff while on vacation. I kept begging her to let me pose scary in the background of all her photos so she’d be the talk of the town, like when they discovered the “ghost” in Three Men and a Baby! But that didn’t happen.
We were leaving the burrito joint when we walked by the CUTEST dog in the whole wide world! I want one of these.
Jade gave Yana a haircut to get rid of her “pyramid head.” Here, Jade lets out an evil chuckle as she screeches, “Now we shall sell the precious Supayana hair on eBay!!”
“SUPAYANA unique curly brown russian hair urban DIY xs/s”
On Monday we took her to Santa Cruz. I got in a car accident on the way there! I love to make a good impression with my driving.
The plan was to strike a model pose simultaneously for the camera. We all agreed to gently rest our chins on our fists like Glamour Shots. But the problem is, no one knew where the camera was, so they all missed it. I, however, held my pose during the entire ride just in case! That is why I’m the only one who looks like a supermodel here.
We kinda got it right this time. But with a different pose. Hand gently stroking the hair, ladies!
We also went on the new “Fright Walk” attraction, which was the scariest motherfucking 5 minutes of our lives!! At first we were like, “This had better not be lame and un-scary like their stupid haunted house!” But as soon as we walked in, we were so scared we chickened out and ran back outside! We didn’t care that we had just spent $20 on tickets, that they were nonrefundable, and that we had only made it two steps into the haunted house. WE WERE SO SCARED!! The lady working the attraction was laughing at us and talked us into going back in. So we did. Have you ever wondered who your TRUE FRIENDS are? Here is how you can tell! Take them to the Fright Walk in Santa Cruz, and you will immediately know how they measure up. Poor Jen, she has terrible friends haha! Me, Jade, and Yana basically used her as a a human shield, pushing her in the front and cowering behind her. But Jade is the worst friend! When a monster jumped out on her side, she GRABBED ME AND SWITCHED SIDES SO THAT I WAS IN HARM’S WAY! Hahahahahaha. Oh… and what about Jen and Yana breaking the plan to all stick together? Towards the end, they started RUNNING and leaving me and Jade behind. But then Jade, not wanting to suffer alone, grabbed Yana’s shirt and dragged her back, haha! Dude, you guys! I hope to never be in a situation of real danger with any of you! (Unless I’m the one who gets to hide in back)
One day I am going to murder Jen’s sunglasses. She has 5 pair of these! She buys them from the gas station for $3.99, and they break a week later. Instead of switching to something more durable, she goes right back to the gas station and buys another pair!
(EDIT: Upon seeing this post, Jen IMs me, “Hmm remind me I need to get another pair of those sunglasses!”)
Why yes, that IS a Supayana shirt I am wearing! You may purchase your very own Supayana creation HERE!
You know you’re in Santa Cruz when the ketchup bottle has a Gay and Civil Rights sticker on it!
Okay, no more Supayana. Now eBay!!
Ebay had a HUGE convention over the weekend to celebrate their 10th anniversary. Kevin and I spent the whole week making fun, but secretly we both wanted to go. Too bad tickets were $70!! Dude, they should have sent me a personal invitation to their party, considering how much money I make for them haha. We decided to ride our bikes by the convention center and take pictures.
I’m sooooo cool!!!
Heeeey and whadda ya know! While we’re on the subject of eBay, how’s about bidding on some of my eBay auctions this week, eh? ;-) I’m kind of bummed cuz I just realized my auctions end on a holiday weekend when everyone will be out of town, so everyone will forget to bid. Boo! :-( Don’t forget!
And OH MY!!! I can’t believe I almost ended this post without talking about cats ONCE!!! Okay, here is a photo of Sparky.
Now I can go! Bye!!
wooo kitties!
I got me a kitty the other week ^_^ she’s so cute and luffly
the one of you on the bike infront of the ebay building is my favorite!!! it’s like you in your golden moment!!!
i wish my friends would dress up!! and be as colorful as all your peeps!
Haha are you serious? That is like my dorkiest picture ever, which I will probably regret posting cuz every time I post a picture of myself without makeup, it ends up all over the internet with captions like “Ewwwwww have you guys seen Shrinkle without makeup?!” Hahahahaha
aw, personally I think you look better without makeup, but your makeup is very inspiring, so I love it as well..
You are absolutely stunning :0!!
The photo of you and Kevin in the shopping market thing is the cutest thing ever you lucky girl, your cats are lovely too!
Your entries are always so exciting hehe xx
Thank you darling!! :-)
haha…I love your posts. I was actually laughing out loud at your supermodel ride pictures – fanfuckingtastic!
Can we trade lives for like a week?
We like the cars… the cars that go BOOM!
LMAO at the pushup man!!!!! What in the hell?? He just wanted some girl to sit on him. Nasty! :)
Re: We like the cars… the cars that go BOOM!
Whatever, I saw you standing in line to go next!!!!
Re: We like the cars… the cars that go BOOM!
Hell yeah… and it was a good ride too. YEEHHAAAWWW!!!! :) You should’ve taken my picture!
hahaha it looks like yana had her eyes closed in all the ride pictures!! you guys are so model-esque >P i always hold my pose throughout the whole ride too ^^
oooh the convention center looks awesome! all rainbowy 8D YAY! and i loooveeee the sand turtle you guys made! such skills!!! i always tend to make holes…so they never look as kyoot as what you guys made lolz…i was hoping we’d run into you at pride in frisko daum you! >P *shakes fist*
<3 stephiee
You shoulda gone to the SJ one! It’s waaaaaaaaaay smaller, but a cozy little place to dress up and eat hot dogs. :-)
well it was my first time and VERY fun! mmm hot dogs sounds good…we had spinach knish o.O not bad though! haha
<3 stephiee
HAHA! Yeah I am such a big wuss!
damn, all you girlies have kick ass hair!
weeeeeeee! your too cute!
i love your big picture posts like this ^_^ they’re so much fun!
oh and hey, i’m heading down to california in august, any suggestions for good shopping spots, eating places, concerts, etc.? any ideas would be awesome! ♥
xoxo
-alanna-
Where in California are you gonna be? Awesome!
well we really wanna hit san francisco, i’m not sure where else they are planning to go ^_^
we’re driving from seattle area, to portland, and on down california… that’s about what i know, haha =D
xoxo
amy, you are so fucking hot.
just sayin’
*sniff*
One day I’m going to be able to afford one of your creations!
…once I pay off my debts, buy all my art supplies for school next year, shell out money for a new sewing machine (I guess my 1960something ZigZag Deluxe was bound to break someday), and get my savings account back to where it should be…
P.S. Your cat is majorly adorable!
Sparky looks like one of my cats.But she has this huge tumor in her mouth and an absessed tooth that gives her the worst breath ever.But the worst part is the most friendly cat ever…all she ever wants to do is lick you and rub her face all over you.And then if you try to make her stop she gets pissed.For about oh half an hour at the most and then tries to lick your face.Ugh.
I would try to buy something from you this weekend butttt I have to save all my money since its like $400 to get that off of her.Oh well.Sorry for all the babbling.
Oh my god! We must totally have the same cat then, cuz Sparky has a gum disease and has the WORST BREATH KNOWN TO MAN!! I bet it’s worse than your cat’s breath, I’m so serious! We had to get one of those filtered water fountain things for the cats to drink out of because when we had just a regular bowl of water, the other cats wouldn’t touch it after Sparky drank out of it haha. And he is the most affectionate out of all the other cats, he always wants to rub his stinky mouth all over my face too!
Sounds like the same cat but mine is a girl.She has to have her own bowl.And you can smell her breath when she is on the other side of the room.My sister brought her kitten over and she wanted to give it a bath and it ran under the couch.Ugh its awful.But I always let her go ahead and lick me because she gets so sad if you don’t.Poor cats.
Hahaha I tried but failed to experience Sparky’s breath. So I think Amy is just making all of this shit up haha!
Trust me, Sparky’s breath is so deadly that even someone with the wildest imagination could not make this shit up!
hahaha!
Oh! I forgot to mention that I bought a ton of hot pink leopard ribbon and am going to sell some cuz there’s no way I can use all of it. But it’s a different size from yours (I think half), so I don’t think it will be competing with yours. Just wanted to let you know in advance so you don’t think I’m trying to be mean :-)
no problem, thanks for letting me know. :)
oh, and is there any significance to that chain you wear locked around your neck? curious…
Not really! I got it for really cheap on eBay haha.
Dude.. is that the Saturn Cafe you’re eating at?!
Yeah!!! Are you in Santa Cruz?!?! I didn’t know we were neighbors!
Haha, no, I don’t live there, but I freakin’ love the Saturn Cafe! A good friend of mine goes to UC Santa Cruz, too.
Another funny thing… I visit Japantown in San Jose often and I just realized you live there!
Are you serious?! I’m totally in Japantown. I walk to Dobashi in my pajamas every morning! What were you doing out here? Hit me up next time you’re in the neighborhood, dude!
XXO
Amy
You got it!
Pictures all look GREAT!
A couple questions :
How often do you have to dye your hair to keep it looking so vibrant?
andddd
where do you get your Drings from? I have a bunch of stuff I want to add them to, and cant find them ANYWHERE.
Hey Chivahn!! I usually touch up my hair every 5-6 weeks. The dye lasts forever cuz my hair is soooooooooooo bleached and damaged, haha! And you can get D-rings at most hardware stores. :-)
“UNIQUE supayana curly brown russian hair urban DIY xs/s”
you are too funny.
Where did you get that pink bike?? :O
I know, isn’t she nuts??! haha
I love my bike!! You can order one at nirve.com if they are still available. That’s where I originally saw it, but I didn’t want to pay the million dollars shipping. So I hunted one down at a local bike shop here! Not sure where you live, but I got it at Highland Family Bicycles in Willow Glen (San Jose)!
longest comment ever
(beware, longest comment ever) first off, yay for kitties. i just adopted the ugliest, most annoying, smelliest poop kitty ever. he’s pretty awesome. but he stinks. i really like the shirt you’re wearing in the pic w/ roxy. in the pic of you guys at gay pride, i really like that girl’s green dress. i love yana’s stuff but am too poor to ever afford it. you look mighty hot in your supermodel pic. i tried to make a turtle out of snow once, but it just ended up looking like a pile of snow. yours actually looks like a turtle. i like your eyeshadow in the pic where you’re eating a sandwich. i can barely ride a bike. and that dog in that picture is super cute, but i maintain that mine is cuter cus she’ll be a slut for you:
Re: longest comment ever
When I first got my bike, I didn’t know how to ride either haha! It took me 2 weeks before I could make it down the block without killing myself.
Puppy porn!!!
*gasp*
DUDE! I NEED your bike! Where did you get it..who makes it..why is it so gloriously PINK?!?!?!?!?!?
Ahh…I would buy SO many Yana creations if she made them in my size. I love her work..snd that one Shrinkle person..i like her too. I should send her some poo in a bag! Nothing says LOVE like a bag of POO!
Hello Miss Teiva!! My Hello Kitty bike is made by Nirve! You can order one at http://www.nirve.com if you have trouble finding it at your local bike shop. I think they also have one in blue. But who wants stinky blue when you can have PINK!!!!
Ooo..thanks! I just like looking at the pictures of it as well! Aww..its out of stock. Maybe i will put it on my christmas list this year!
santa cruz with supayana looks like it was SUPER fun!! i haven’t been there in ages… last time i was suppose to go… i woke up at 5PM and decided it wasn’t worth the drive. lol oops!! i should try going to the fright walk.. i never believed in spending that kinda money on an attraction at santa cruz.. but it sounds really scary and really fun!! haha :D
and : ( too bad i didn’t go to san jose pride!! i was playing “spot shrinkle” but i guess i was at the wrong gay pride. lol
<3 Tess
You guys should go to the Folsom Street this year (SF). I think I am going!! I haven’t been in years. I miss dressing like a ho in broad daylight!!
folsom street fair!! ahh :D thats the one in september correct? i’ve never been to that.. always been a little intimidated by all the hardcore gangster leather and assless chaps. lol x.x do people go there that don’t wear leather too!? haha cuz i have NOTHING that remotely looks leathery and/or fetish! :x
<3 tess!
Haha well you don’t have to be a total leatherdaddy to dress up and have fun! :-D I don’t own ANYTHING leather. I just dress like myself (pink, lace, frills, glitter), but one notch sluttier!!!
you are so cute. :D out of all the journals I read, yours by far is my favourite. you crack me up. :D and i love your photo’s.
Right back at ya, Miss Manda!!!!!!
Hot damn, that was a lot of photos! Was that Saturn you guys were eating at?
Damn you guys for not calling me when you came into Santa Cruz! hehehe
You got in a car accident on the way over? Was it on Highway 17? Ekkk! As you know that road almost took me out last month, I hope you are ok!
It looks like you had a ton of fun at the Boardwalk, wish I could have been there!
*christine*
Ok, maybe calling it a car accident was a huge overstatement, haha! We hadn’t even left San Jose yet when some lady rear-ended me at a stop sign on Empire and 5th. She was either on her cell phone or just not paying attention, so it definitely wasn’t my fault. We both got out of our cars, she apologized, and we checked for damage. Fortunately I drive a shitty car so it’s not like I was going to scream, “MY COROLLA! YOU ADDED ANOTHER DENT TO MY ‘99 TOYOTA COROLLA!” Anyway, I have so much bird shit on my car that even if she did add some new dents I probably wouldn’t have noticed it.
OMG, so many pics!
I’m so jealous you got to see The Bravery though, I really like them! :)
I like their songs too, but they were kinda boring live! :-(
you and your friends are all soo good looking! which is exactly why i cannot live in california… too many beautiful people! ;D
Oh whatever!! I just don’t post the pictures of us sitting on the couch in our sweatpants and nerdy glasses hahahahaha
hahaha, are you trying to say i dont look hot on the couch in sweatpants? because i DO. just seattle-hot, and not california-hot. ;)
i really would like to move back there (i was born there) but right now the cost of living there is a little too much.
btw, what is your address? my grandparents live in apple valley, and next time i visit them id like to come crash your place to get pix of everyone in their sweatpants and nerdy glasses :D
I actually have no idea where apple valley is, but hit me up if you’re ever in the San Jose area! I can’t promise you any sweatpants photo ops, but I do like to take my friends to dive bars and burrito joints! :-D
sorry, im only in it for the sweatpants babe ;D
apple valley is like an hour from LA.. east i think. im not positive where san jose is (san fran ish though right0 buuttt yah. farther south then you im pretty sure.
I love your friend Jen’s HAIR! How gorgeous. And I can’t help but laugh and be secretly a little grossed out at the pile of Yana’s hair!
Lol! That pile of hair IS gross! What’s even grosser is that it’s actually my leg hair! Mwahah :) Just kidding.
Oh shut up Yana, everyone already knows it’s your pubes!!
Keeps you warm in the winter!
I saw the Epoxies last night, but I couldn’t tell you what she was wearing! I was there to see the Phenomenauts, so I didn’t even go up to the stage while Epoxies were on. :(
I so love your hair Amy! So you are forgiven for admitting you like the Bravery! just kidding!
I do love your hair.
Whatever, you know I like cheesy bands! Remember those awful TAPES we used to make?! Oh my god Linna you know what else I found tonite.. hang on lemme scan it in…
heehee! Oh yeah, I remember those tapes.
I was trying to forget about some of them. no not really!
Admit it, you want me
Haha remember that thong!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey did you know Becki has a LJ too? She hasn’t updated it in 23987423 years though.
Re: Admit it, you want me
teeheehee! that picture is teh hot!!1!1!! That’s the last time I give you any undawears!
I thought Becki had a LJ but I’m really bad about looking up people. No you are wrong, becki has not updated her journal in exactly 3236237372 years!
Re: Admit it, you want me
I just looked, and I can’t find her LJ anymore. She must have deleted it, unless I’m typing it in wrong?? Wasn’t it bluepiegroupie or something? I haven’t seen any of you guys in years! Did you know Adrian and Deidre got married? They do this club called Bootie now but I don’t really go out anymore. I am retired!!
Re: Admit it, you want me
hmm, I couldn’t find it either! I dunno, I’ve only been active on here since like April. I have not been out west for like 3 years but I may be going soon.
;p
bluepie always makes me think blue pie.
I know about Adrian and D! Actually I’ve talked to Adrian a wee bit online and know all about Bootie but I have yet to go, I dig some of the same music they do.
i just ordered some pink eyeliner and black glittery eyeshadow from you, and i am SO excited. as soon as i make enough money i will be buying and rocking one of your lovely shirts, i LOVE the corset-type ones you make. these pictures are all SO cute, the one of you on your bike is probably my favorite. you are SO gorgeous with or without makeup. if only some of us were so lucky.
Awesome, thank you!!!!!
I ordered some stuff from ya on ebay last week! I think you are beautiful and you have great taste, mind if I add ya?
I live 3 blocks from the Saturn Cafe, you can almost see my apartment over your shoulder in one of the beach shots. Heh, if i’d seen you on the beach, i would’ve invited you back to my place for a doobie. =)
hey awesome pictures, i was wondering what kind of camera you use? i need to buy a new one soon, and i love its quality.
<3
I know, I hardly ever post, but had to this time – awesome bike!!! I have the same one too!! You should email me, I can always send you goodies – xkuuipo415x@comcast.net
Doooodd. The blonde chick in the second picture looks just like an Olsen twin! And i’m jealous of all your adventures. Take me with you! :O)
ew i want to buy a bike now. that looks like fun to ride around downtown san jose. you should have stolen that table at santa cruz it had garbage pale kids on it. where was that restaurant i like the lil spacemen in the background.
That meal looks great
i love picture posts. i don’t even know you and i am as straight as they come but damn woman…you are so so hot.
oh and that bike is sweetness and the sand turtle is too cute.
I looked at the back of Punk Rock Confidential and noticed that the Epoxies are on the back cover. Is she wearing one of yours? If she is and you don’t have a copy I can get you one. Just let me know. ^_^
sooo good!
hey! i was wondering… in this picture…
where did you get that cute pink dress? i love it!
and do you have any idea where your friend got her green dress with princess puff sleeves and the heart? both dresses are so incredible!!!
Re: sooo good!
hi! that’s me in the green dress. i just found it at a vintage store in LA. it’s kinda short on me, but worth it!
Re: sooo good!
i love you & i love your dress. i am having one made for myself.
XoX
This is random, but I was fooling around with blue and silver kryolan and I got a funky metallic sky blue.
That’s so pretty! I’d love to wear my silver stuff more but I’m not so good at applying it!
It’s tricky, especially if you want to be conservative, like for work or school. So I usually just make a thick line of it, like an eye pencil.
Yer posts make my brain explode with glee. Rawr. ^_______^
you look like you had soooo much fun!
I was jealous until i remembered I’ve been having fun too =D
is that a hello kitty bike?
ISN’T YANA THE BEST PERSON IN THE WORLD??
Oh, I am jellis. (& by that I mean jealous.)
I would like to go to the Boardwalk to frolick & play.
Then again, I kind of hate the sun.
H.A.G.S.
kit!
melisser
Sounds like y’all had fun but you should have taken a picture of the haunted house.
AHAHHAHHA
Oh my god, now the whole internet knows I use gigantic generic brand maxi pads. Thanks a lot hoe! :) Remember that guy who wanted to help me carry the pads to the car? California is soo weird. Haha.
The pictures with me and your kitty are sooo gross! I look like I’m dying! Well, I sorta was cause I had period cramps :( BOOO!
I had such a fun time…and I LOVVVVVVVVVED Jade and Jen! Your friends are so fun!
Re: AHAHHAHHA
Oh crap!! I can’t believe I didn’t even mention the story about the guy wanting carry your pads. If I have time tonite I will edit this post so the WHOLE WIDE WORLD CAN KNOW HOW HELPFUL US CALIFORNIANS ARE!
Re: AHAHHAHHA
Oh and whatever! The pics of you and Orange are sooo adorable, that’s why I posted them! I would never post pictures if I thought they were bad… unless I hated you!! So maybe I secretly hate you!
Re: AHAHHAHHA
i wish you guys would have invited me.
Re: AHAHHAHHA
Anna! I didn’t know you’d be able to come down to SJ since you work a 9-5 job on weekdays! We didn’t leave you out on purpose. :-( We did talk about you a lot though, so it’s not like you weren’t on our minds…. ANNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay I promise to make it up to you!!!
Re: AHAHHAHHA
