san francisco

California is a very beautiful state. Just saying. I know that now because Beth and I spent most day driving through it all. Well, maybe not all of it but... yeah. We went from Los Angeles to San Francisco. On the way over here we went to a vineyard and did some wine tasting which was awesome. I can definitely see myself working at a vineyard in the future. Yeah, I'd trade shoes for wine any day. Ha ha ha. Took some pretty neat pictures that I can't upload just yet... of course :(

Now we're chillin in our hotel room watching Camp Rock 2 on Disney Channel. lol. Tomorrow we'll be exploring San Francisco and on Tuesday we're going back to LA again. Can't wait to see what tomorrow has to bring. Can't wait to see the Golden gate bridge and the rest of San Fran! I'll be snapping pictures, for sure.

Does It Have To Be Human - Skid Row (Downtown)



Damn!!! This song is too good. Dallon Weekes (stand-in bassist in Panic at the Disco whenever they're touring) is the brain behind this, I believe. Brendon Urie is featured in the song... he's the first thing you'll hear actually and DAAAAMN that boy can sing! Just discovered this song today and now I'm honestly starting to feel like it's about time I start stalking Brendon for real. I mean, now that we're in the same thing at all. I just want to kidnap him for a few moments. I'll be nice. I just want him to sing for me!

hi, i think i'm falling in love

Ate breakfast at IHOP today. New York Cheesecake Pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream. Damn! It's a good thing I'm not counting calories and shit now that I'm on vacation (or ever really...)! It was pretty damn delicious. Sat in Hancock park, read a little bit from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows... so yeah, the beginning of my day has been pretty damn chill. 

We're going to see a movie tonight. I think it premieres today? I am not sure though. It's called Machete and I don't have a clue what it's about but I'm excited anyways, duh!

I just really want to say that I'm in love with LA so far. Did I say that in my last entry as well? Well, I can't say it enough. The weather, the people, the city, everything... even the traffic has its charm but then again, I'm never the one who's driving, am I? LOL.

I'm going out to get some more postcards now and quite possibly something tasty at the Starbucks I located yesterday that's pretty much just around the corner. Life is good, friends. Life is freaking good!

greetings from los angeles

So I had big plans to update my blog with pictures and stuff now that I'm in LA (cause I have been taking a lot of nice pictures so far) but unfortunately I can't upload pics from my camera to Beth's computer so I'll just have to do a picspam when I get home.

I'm loving Los Angeles so far! I've met some really nice people. Seen som very cool places. The sun is shining... really... I haven't seen ONE cloud since I got here and I love it! Today we went to a live screening of America's Got Talent... Jason Derulo (sp?) was the guest performer which was cool! Also very cool seeing Sharon Osbourne irl and of course, Jerry Springer! Hah!

It's funny... just a week ago my sister and I were watching the Jerry Springer show (and we were very amused by it lol) at home and now he was right there. Wicked!  I loved when the audience started going 'Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!' like they always do on his show.

We've been strolling up and down Hollywood Blvd today and I took a picture next to Michael Jackson's star just like I promised my cousin, Sarah! Haha. Yesterday we saw The Hills + Beverly Hills and really... everything's just made of awesome so far. I'm excited to see more! Tomorrow I'm gonna make some adventures on my own while Beth's working and then we're going to see this improv comedy thing which sounds really cool.

I'll keep you guys posted.
xoxo

hello

Hi, I'm freaking out a little bit here. My plane for Paris leaves in 2 hrs and 15 mins and I'm so excited (+a little bit nervous) that I think I'm gonna burst! This means that in less than 24 hours I will be in Los Angeles.


How crazy is this???

i know a place, where the grass is really greener

Ask me if I'm nervous now.

The answer is yes. I don't know how this happened. Today it hit me though and now I'm nervous as hell. I'm mostly nervous about the short stay in Paris though, to be honest. Finding my way on the airport... from one terminal to another. All in less than one hour because I need to check in at least one hour before the plane to LA takes off. Apparently I need to go by bus from one terminal to another and yeah,

I'm just a bit stressed out. No big deal.

And I've been under the impression that flying from Paris to Los Angeles takes 10 hours. Apparently it takes 11 hours and 30 minutes... this makes me a bit worried as well. I'm a bit claustrophobic and I'm afraid I will start thinking about the fact that there's no way to "get out" once I'm up there. I'll just need to remind myself to breathe.

Had dinner with my family today and everyone wanted to chime in with suggestions, plans and ideas. LOL. I love them all but they're a bit insane. My aunt was planning all my outfits for me and asked me to get her a role in a movie. My grand pa was pretty much telling me to stay inside the whole time and not to anything because he's been watching CSI and all those shows and Los Angeles is an extremely dangerous place.  My cousins' only demand is that I find Michael Jacksons star on the walk of fame, lie down on the ground and take a picture next to it.

There was a lot more but those were the main things. Can't wait to get home and all them all about my experiance on the other side of the world. <3

In 24 hours I will be on the plane towards Los Angeles and it'll be about nine hours left until we touch down at LAX.

It feels so unreal still. I'm super excited!

we're all mad here
