Two of my most fave things shall be joined tonight in Los Angeles. No, not Gold Lamae and Salmon Sushi, but BASEBALL AND FILIPINO FOOD! Tonight is Filipino Heritage night at Dodger Stadium and my heart and belly hate me for not being able to go. They're serving Chicken Adobo at the stadium!! I mean...what?
Thank you Dodgers for this amazing event. I wish I could bring my BFF Cali Mansi to hang out with you all tonight, but we gots plans that unfortunately have nothing to do with Adobo and/or baseball.
For those of you who are going...have some Lumpia for me!!!
Love love, Kimee ps: If you're thinking, "Wait, I thought Kimee was an Angels fan." You are correct, but I got nothing but love for most Baseball Teams and players. Except for the Rays (sorry Tampa) and A.J. Perzinski (sorry Douchies)
As many of you know, in September, I'll be running the Disney Half Marathon on behalf of AIDS Project Los Angeles. I am very excited to run for this great organization and have already gotten blisters trying to improve my time. I'm better now thanks to new socks:)

I had a dream last night that someone was trying to kidnap my Apo (Grandfather.) When the kidnapper found out he was 91, he said, "Oh, sorry. I can't take him. He's too old for the deal. I need someone under 80. Wow. He looks really good for his age." He then gently took Apo out of the car, placed him in his wheelchair and asked us to take good care of him.
Nicest kidnapper I've ever met in a dream.
*I realize this is not a picture of my Grandfather, but I imagine this is the face my niece Hailee would make if I told her this story.
I just got back from an AWESOME trip back home in Hawaii! I was given the amazing opportunity and difficult task of judging the Miss Hawaii Pageant while I was home. It was such a great experience and I had a wonderful time meeting new people and seeing first hand what these young women go through. They were all stunning and I was truly impressed with each and everyone of them. If you missed the show, you can catch it again online at www.oc16.tv. Next replay is today, July 10th at 6pm PST. The show is really good! Check out the 30 beautiful contestants, the always fierce 24/7 dance company and me waving to my Grandma...good times;)
Other than that, I've been busy working on "When I Grow Up"...lots of exciting things are happening with the show and I'm really excited to get things going. My editor and I have been working hard on getting things together and I will keep you updated on what's going on....you know I will:) www.wigutv.com

Once upon a time, on an island far from snow, a little girl was born. She used to love to go to the library. She used to be in Academically Advanced classes. She used to floss every night. Then one day, someone put her in a show and it went downhill from there...
