ABDC III

Will it be Quest…or Beat Freaks? For once, these two crews are both SO talented.

My favorite of America’s Best Dance Crew was Beat Freaks. I love that they’re a girl crew that can represent and dance as well as the boys. Every performance, they brought something new to the table. But their routine on the most recent episode was…not up to par. Overall, they’re the most consistent crew.

Quest crew had a lot of buzz about them too. They always had the sickest tricks, but lacked a bit in their routines. Then the most recent episode…they were ON POINT. Even the judges gave them a standing ovation.

I have no idea who will win. This is def the best season in ABDC history. As for my vote…

BEAT FREAKS. (Girl’s Rule!)

The second line of Tokidoki for Hello Kitty is available for purchase off the official tokidoki site. So cute! I think this second line is much better than the first

Tokidoki Sample Sale Price List

Hey guys,

I just got back home from the sample sale! Tons of great stuff at VERY discounted prices. For those of you who haven’t made it out there yet, I took some pictures on my phone of the price list and available items. I will post them up as soon as I eat dinner! Check back later

**EDIT

So I stopped by around 4pm and it wasn’t too busy. They had so many bags in a variety of prints:

Sorriso Hobo

Magia Belt Bag

More backpacks

LeSportSac

The majority of the sale is bags and just a few jewelery items (none of the good pieces). Same with the clothing. I think they only had one t-shirt design available. Here’s a list of the inventory:

Justin Nozuka

I was just flipping through the channels and stumbled upon a music video playing on mtvU’s The Freshman. It sounded a bit like Jason Mraz, but it wasn’t. Instead, the singer was young artist, Justin Nozuka (half Japanese/ half American). He’s been writing his own songs since he was 12 years old!

Here’s his video for “After Tonight”:

Pretty talented, no? Listen to more songs on his mySpace page.
