Birthday in Wisconsin

I always seem to spend my birthdays in unusual places. This year I found myself in Dodgeville, Wisconsin shooting with Land's End. On set I was wonderfully surprised by a delicious cake that my agent at Ford New York sent. Back at the Quality Inn I was surprised again by a beautiful bouquet of roses that my beau sent me! To top the night off the other model and I went to Wal-mart for dinner! It was honestly the only place to eat within 20miles! Working at the Land's End Headquarters has it's perks. They have a company store that I bought cozy sweaters and cute bikinis for next to nothing and they have a fully equipped gym including a track, olympic size pool and full weight room with all the machines and toys you could ever want. It was so nice to be able to use the facilities after a long day of work!
I spent my last night in Madison, Wisconsin. My good friend Sierra lives there so she showed me around, taking me to get MacNcheese pizza and drink beer on the lake. To my surprise Madison was going off! There was conga lines, raves and hip hop shows everywhere I looked! We even hopped a fence or two to get the most epic views! I love having friends all over the world!

Deus Ex Machina

While traveling through Indonesia last year, I couldn't help but see Deus ex Machina everywhere. They had the sickest surfboards and motorbikes which is all you need in Bali. When I returned back to Venice I was thrilled to see they had set up shop in my hood! They have an incredible selection of boards, bikes, and clothing. They even have a bike repair shop for all you biker babes (and boys) out there. Last weekend they had a 'Carnival of Go and Flow' at the shop. Lots of music, surf, bike, art, clothes, food, beer, friends and sunshine. I look forward to the next party! Check them out at...
