Curiosity doesn't always kill the Cat.

I noticed that I get a ton of follow up questions with things that I post up on here, facebook, instagram, twitter, etc so I have decided to take the most asked questions and answer them on here! Thank you to everyone who submitted their questions through facebook xo

DRIFTING/MOTORSPORTS
How long have you been into/around Drifting for and what got you into it?
I have been around the sport for 7 years now, since I was 15 years old. I went snowboarding with some church group thing to Big Bear where my snowboard instructor just happened to be a former Formula D license holder and sponsored by a major tire company back when licenses and sponsorships were give out a lot easier. I really liked this guy (of course being 15/16) so when he invited me out to the Pomona Night Shift by HIN that's when I fell in love with it just by watching the Dunlop tire demo.

Do you drift? What kind of car do you drive?
No, been on lots of memorable ride alongs but never gotten a car sideways. If I ever get around to finally building a track car it will be for grip/road racing, I feel more drawn to that style of driving personally than to drift. I own an 08 Mercedes C300, and no, it doesn't drift, yes I know how to turn the TC off.

Do you go to all the Formula D events?
The only ones I have not been to so far are West Palm Beach and Seattle, for some reason those just never find their way into my top traveling priority although I'd love to go, especially if I could be flown out, it gets quite pricey. I go to as many as I can on my own dime, well, simply because I am so in love with Drifting and covering these incredible events. Hopefully one season I will be at all 7 rounds to meet you all who ask about WPB and Seattle!

What do you do in the off season?
I LOVE snowboarding, it's how I got into Drifting in the first place! Not only does it tap into my athletic side, it gives me a chance to be around a totally different scene and meet new people, which is my third favorite thing ever. I own an 09 Burton Feather, with Burtong bindings, boots, jacket, bag etc. I am a label whore when it comes to snowboard gear, but I guess its better than being a label whore with purses or clothing. Two seasons ago I lost my favorite gloves that were Volcom Stones' and scratched a quarter of my goggles, which are Von Zipper of course. I've been riding the same amount of time as I've been in Drifting, so if you're ever in the SoCal area in the middle of winter, lets shred the gnar ;) 

Behind the Bow
Is photography what you do for work?
Nope! I am a licensed Realtor in the state of California through C21. Photography and writing are my creative outlets, and thus the Drift Bunny was born out of imagination, pink ribbons, and glitter. I have a seasoned agent I work with, been around the housing industry all my life so being a real estate agent just came naturally to me.

I read your LONG post about your ex, what a jerk. Has he ever tried to call?
Ah yes. This one was VERY popular. No, he hasn't, I doubt he ever will, and I am at peace knowing that. Going to Texas only to be told he thought the whole situation was funny and he never really cared was my closure and showed me that I wasn't dealing with a man, but a coward who couldn't handle his business. Honestly, I don't want to know anymore, its irrelevant to my life now and will only slow me down more. There are no crystal balls in life, and last year I thought we would never talk again after him going overseas, so who knows! Maybe one day he will come around or maybe he won't. It's a non issue to me now.      

Hey.
HI.

 Any advice for me for getting in shape? I've tried everything and nothing works!
For myself, being vegan was key. I have always worked or because I was always in sports, so that was never the issue, eating properly was. After going through such traumatic events earlier this year I wanted to really hold myself accountable and what better what to do it than make myself sick if I ate junk food? haha. There is a saying that 80% of weight loss is dieting. I call bullshit. Proper diet and exercise go hand in hand period, you cannot out exercise poor eating. I wouldn't recommend vegan or plant based eating for everyone but I will say that you really have to FEED your body with all the good nutrients it needs and craves. Red meat is difficult for our bodies to digest, so I suggest lots of lean white meats, lots of fruits and veggies, and LOTS of water each day. Combined with 40 minutes of good cardio and weight training and you should see results in no time. Lastly, some fun upbeat music to get you going always helps, download lots of good things and try to listen to it only during workouts so they don't feel overplayed.

What do you do for fun besides Drifting things? 
Reading is always fun and relaxing, I love to read any books that stimulate the mind and get the imagination going. The Catcher in the Rye, the Great Gatsby, A Million Little Pieces, The Alchemist, are a few that get my imagination going. Also, lots of psychology based books are in my lineup too. About 99.5% of my friends are from the automotive world, so I love spending time with them and getting into random adventures doing whatever. I have one really good friend that lives by me and have known her since high school, her name is Katrina and she's probably the funniest and most amazing person that I get to call my friend, if not my "bestie". She is totally the girlie girl part of me; we get our nails done, shop, and go dancing at nightclubs together, not to mention watch MTV's catfish and Keeping up with the Kardashians religiously. One super random thing that not many people know about me is that I love horses and horse back riding; there is a ranch that I volunteer my time at occasionally very close to my house and just hang out with the people and animals. It is so relaxing and a nice break from everything.

Do you have a boyfriend or dating anyone?
No. I really want to be alone and single in every way romantically possible right now. There are some projects in motorsports that I am trying to get off the ground the rest of this and for next season that I really want to put all my energy into. Real Estate is what is going to fund my expensive hobby, so that requires a lot of time and focus as well. Boys seem to have a nasty little spell on me, they distract me so much and I really cannot deal with anyone besides my friends, family and people that are surrounding my projects. For one whole year, I'd love to just stay single and work on myself and things that matter to me the most right now.


I love reading and answering questions and things from people who enjoy my blog. Lately there has been a steady stream of questions, so any good ones that pop up again I will answer them on here every two weeks or so.
