LA Round Deux

Over spring break I took a short trip to Los Angeles. It always nice to get out of the hectic, stressful city for a little and what better way than with a little relaxed west coast vibe? You know a trip is off to a good start when 1) your domestic flight is not delayed and 2) you arrive to your gate 30 minutes earlier than scheduled.

We didnt really have a set schedule or list of things we wanted to do which I must say is kind of nice. We just got up each day and did things that we felt like or just hung out. So what did we end up doing? We spent a lot of time Soulcycling in West Hollywood, or as some like to call it "WeHo" :D. I must say, west hollywood seems like a lot of fun, but why is everyone so perfect looking?!

Numerous afternoons were spent in Beverly Hills eating, shopping, an walking around. If you havent been to the Montage, I highly recommend it! In my effort to transition to the LA lifestyle, I ate at numerous vegan restaurants, got a chemical peel, drank green juice, and hiked. I was told I am well on my way to being "LA".

One night we went to downtown to eat at the Palm which is also a well known spot here in New York. It was my first time downtown, so we walked around LA live, and went to the 24th floor bar of the Ritz there. The view is great, I definitely recommend!

Overall it was a nice little break, although I must say the weather was warmer here on the east coast the entire time! LA, I hope ill see you in the near future!

Spring Break has Finally Arrived...Almost

Today is finally the day spring break starts for me!! :) I'm soooo looking forward to it, except theres a few obstacles i still have to get through.

Those are:
1. a midterm
2. getting to the bus/taking bus


I have one midterm this morning that consists of writing two essays in one class (75 minutes)...thats only like 32 minutes per essay!


Last night was crazy, i was running around like mad gathering everything up and getting ready so i could quickly leave after my last class. Basically im trying to take as much winter stuff home as possible which started out like this:

basically i started pulling out all my sweaters, coats, ect. from all the creative places i have found to store clothes and started laying them on my bed. Well, that pile kept growing, and growing, and soon i was very stressed out because i had a huge unorganized mess. Plus, how was it all going to fit?!?

Well somehow i managed to turn all that, and more into:

this little big guy...dont be deceived by the picture. This thing could fit a small child and weighs atleast 100 pounds


once again, dont be deceived by the picture. That carryall is absolutely stuffed.



im guess that all my luggage must weigh 200 pounds together. So, im really freaking out about how I'm going to get all this stuff onto the bus by myself....not to mention its supposed to be pouring of course :((


should make for quite the adventure!
