About Me

i'm yuri, also known as lilli, キャンベル, yuripoo, jujubee, yudeetang, yuriness, tweeDy, unko/poo/poopoo, huh, yureeheeheehee, little-one, yuro, roadrunner, and nippon.
i love new things, new food & new places. i don't like ppl that are disrespectful & fake. what's important in my life are good laughs, good food, good relationships with ppl, and good times.
i was in tokyo all my life until i came here for college. i've been livin in sunny socal for about 5yrs now. and i've been married for 3 years!
recent news that i have is that i finally finally FINALLLLLYYYY graduated from uci, and i have a bachelors in the arts! that seemed like it took forever. actually, yea it did.
currently we live in LA, on venice blvd by the 405 to be exact, and i do part-time peetnik (barista @ a coffee & tea shop, which is awesome cuz i am a caffeine addict) and other days i intern as a photographer/ junior editor for and editorial agency. i don't get any days off, but i am hoping that if i keep my eyes on the prize, it will all be worth while some day...
