NINA - "Everybody's Touching Everybody" (Part 2 of 2)

Mis Amigas,

I was astounded when this world famous model asked me to use my apartment, for a strange sexual encounter with two men. I mean, it's completely unrealistic and strange for a woman to be paying for sex. Especially one that looks like that.

Now, I didn't talk to the men as they left -- I would love to have questioned them a little. Because I believe that when she gets them in bed, she takes some past problems out on them. Let's face it, her father wasn't very present thoughout her childhood years and then she married for money.

What can one expect from a woman who is completely bored with her married life? ...

In essence, I have to admit that that is why I love her. In a way, it's my brush against fame, and fancy people. If you saw a list of the people she knows and hangs out with, you would faint. And that she pays the smallest attention to me, is always such a personal turn on.

I'm glad that by the end of this encounter with me, she reminded me of how much she cares for me, or I would have been really pissed, and I would have had to re-evaluate my friendship with her. I'd be wondering if brushes with fame were worth erratic sexual behavior.

At the end of the day, she's agreed to be interviewed, and that's what I'm excited about. Peeking into what it means to be VALENTINA.

By looking at her, as an example of success, I can monitor and gauge my own...

From a cursory life into her life just through her behavior alone, I can tell you -- money isn't everything... but damn if it doesn't seem to work out most problems.

Or how they say in Spanish: "Money won't get you there, but it'll leave you half a block away."

Rich in Art in Hollywood,
Nina

ANITA - "Dirty Floors" (Part 1 of 2)

There comes a time in one's life when you have to get over things. Those old routines and patterns that you got into, those ruts that make you think that you're living in some kind of spiral or a labyrinth of some sort.

Oftentimes, you even know you're in that forrest. You're so busy looking at the trees or worried about getting attacked by a wolf,t hat you never really just STOP, and take stock.

Okay, I confess I was in one of those ruts, and then for reasons known only to providence, Farrell came my way. Look, my biological clock is ticking, and I'm an available young lady, dating in the world -- but unlike many a chick I know -- I am in no rush.

I want to get my life together and have a career before I start worrying about anything else. I mean, nowadays, it's not just a man's job to bring home the bacon. These days, both parts of a couple have to work. I can't just go to the old formula that my mom adhered to, that "find a good man" theory of defining oneself.

Don't take me wrong, a good man is welcome.

They're just hard to find and I'm wasn't banking on winning the man lottery... I don't know if I did, but I do know that Farrell's a find...

Love,
Anita...
xoxo

LYDIA - "Women's Lib. Killed The Macho Man" (Part 1 of 3)

Bueno, my darlings, as I said in the webisode, my name is LYDIA, and they've asked me to write a little something about my webisode.

What I can tell you is that it's strange looking at my trouble with men from afar. I can see that sometimes I can appear one-sided, but ironically, that shouldn't be the case, because I'm a Gemini, and you know we always change our minds every time we pee.

This particular story is the beginning of it all where I explain how my meeting up with a really interesting guy with movie star looks ended up in disaster, because I have no regard for personal boundaries. I always step over the line and reach out and touch people. I really should keep my hands to myself.

But "therein lies the rub", as Shakespeare would say. As a Latina, I can't.

We are touchy feel-y people, take me or leave me.

My name is Lydia. Buy my couture swim suits... Please?

I can hear my biological clock ticking, and it's high time I saved up enough time to make a baby. My God, I hope my mother doesn't read this.

Love,
Lydia

NINA - "Everybody's Touching Everybody" (Part 1 of 2)

Dear Loyal Followers of Latino-ness,

Finally, the formal debut of Latinas En L.A.!

Everyone has worked so hard to put this show together, I know I had to soul search a lot and figure out if this was really what I wanted to do with my life.

Is this what I want? To document and report the lives of others? ... In the end, I have to tell you that Valentina may have wanted to borrow my apartment, but there was something else that I wanted from her. And no, not another "chulito" that I'd have to pay out, but rather: an interview.

In the upcoming weeks, after a few webisodes, which will not include myself, I'll come back with some probing interviews. Talks that I had with Valentina after the incident you'll see depicted here.

My central concept with this portrait of myself within the series is to convey that everyone wants to be a part of a party -- even if the party is not really good for them. If I'd have been invited, would I have gone? ... Ummmm, honestly, with Valentina the peer pressure for me is sky-high. I have trouble with self-esteem, especially turning down someone so famous.

I'm famous for what? Telling the truth? Becoming a Celeb-peronality on the internet? Like that guy that cried for Brittany years ago, and got millions of hits on the web? ... Um, yeah. I'm sorry, I'm goal oriented.

Things turned out as they did, and maybe you have questions about my moral compass. Maybe you think I'm a needy, grubby, wanty, romancer of fame and fortune. And I have to admit I am. You'll see me among people like Valentina, because even though I may not have landed on The View just yet -- I've got something to say.

Last year, my boyfriend dumped me. I went haywire and moved to Hollywood... Truth is, I go back and forth to Miami. But no, I do not stalk him. And, of course, those are the words of a stalker.

I try to stay away from my ex, Johnny Tremain, but I'm always drawn to knowing what the hell is going on in his life. Why should I care? And I don't. But you just know I'll bump into an old girlfriend of mine or two and they'll alwways have the skinny on him, because he's ended up on telenovelas, and knocked up some Mexican starlet.

Look, I'm recovering from him, from a major change in life, from the downturned economy. I'm trying to make something out of nothing here. So what you see may have shitty sound, or maybe a wobbly take or two, but I'm speaking from the heart. And only a rare show on television (where I intend to wind up) is telling that same truth.

I'm the real thing. I'm proud of being Latina. They have given me the month of October to celebrate it, so here goes.

Everybody's Touching Everybody,
Nina Ramirez
The First Latina En L.A.
(Boom, here's my Mark on the cyber-pavement!)
