#Disneyland10k Race Recap + My Birthday Weekend

Posted on September 14, 2014 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: Disneyland 10k, Lilo and Stitch, race recap, runDisney | 4 Comments

Two weekends ago I participated in a 10k at Disneyland. It was special for several reasons: it was a runDisney event, it was my very first 10k ever AND it was my birthday weekend. Initially I had wanted to run the Disneyland 10k in 2013 to commemorate my 40th birthday, but by the time I went to register, it was too late & it had sold out. In a way it was a good thing because this year’s 10k race theme happened to be Lilo & … [Read more...]

Meet Lara Bojarsky of AYM Alliance Inc.

Posted on September 10, 2014 | Filed Under: Real Moms of the SFV | Tags: AYM Alliance Inc., Lara Bojarsky, recruiting firm | 2 Comments

It was exactly three years ago that I met Lara Bojarsky. I had interviewed for a position at her company & had been hired to start shortly after Labor Day weekend. The company (a recruiting firm) was based in the Warner Center area of Woodland Hills, a place that I was very familiar with since I had worked for at least three other companies within a one-mile radius in the last 12 years. The job was part-time & a good fit for me since my … [Read more...]

Hello Kitty Con, Here I Come!

Posted on September 5, 2014 | Filed Under: Pop Culture | Tags: Hello Kitty's 40th Anniversary, Hello Kity Con, Sanrio | 10 Comments

I have been a Hello Kitty fan for a long, long time. As a young Asian-American girl growing up in the 70’s, I was all about Hello Kitty. Sure, my friends & I were into Barbies, but there was something about Hello Kitty merchandise that I just had to have. I remember going mall shopping with my parents & if we happened to pass a Sanrio store, then I begged them to go inside. Inevitably I would ask my dad to buy me a small Hello Kitty plush … [Read more...]
