Watched Mi Vida Loca last night for the first time. Got inspired to post these pictures from 2005. Nandi had a Chola themed birthday party. That's me on the left, lookin' like a firme hina. Elana is looking a little more authentic, cause she used to actually live this lifestyle. I, on the other hand, was a second rate suburban hoodrat who used to cruise the Puyallup mall in a borrowed Starters jacket.
Nandi lookin' a little rockabilly, but it's your birthday ruca, I ain't mad.
Mousie and Sad Girl.
This movie is all kinds of good, and shows Echo Park back in '93. Skip to 0:49 for the best scene. The director Allison Anders is making a sequel called "Smile Now, Cry Later". Gonna get my black lip liner ready for that!!!
