Only 2 weeks left!
So I have entered into my last 2 weeks in LA and LAST week at Chiat! :( A few weeks ago I was ready to come home but now I don't want to leave. I am definitely going to miss this place and all the people, they are such nice people and have been so helpful. Thursday last week I worked some more on the taste + nutrition deck before we headed out to Pinkberry in honor of Meghan's birthday. That was a nice outing. This weekend was a lot of fun! thursdya was book club at the loft, so much food and drinks for a small crowd but a nice evening. Friday I went to third street promenade in Santa Monica and shopped and looked around with Nicole. I love Santa Monica, its so cute and a lovely little beachy town. I still need to hit up the pier but I want to do that at night. Later on John Veronica and I went to the Arc Light to see 500 Days of Summer. LOVED IT! What a FABULOUS movie, so well written and produced, I thought. The soundtrack is also just great, I borrowed the cd from Nicole and have been listening to it every day. Joseph Gordon-Levitt did a brilliant job as Tom capturing your love and sympathy for him. I felt you could really relate to the entire situation because it wasn't the every day hollywood love story, more realistic. Zooey was adorable as well. Saturday Nicole and I went to Abalone Cove to check out the tide pools and sea creatures and beach. That was quite the experience, we had to try and get over to the other tide pools but, it would have been impossible to get back with the tide rising. All in all it was a great little trip. Later that night I met up with Michelle K, YES SHES BEEN IN LA THE WHOLE TIME!! We went out downtown, wanted to hit up the Standard but there was a DC Shoes event and was sold out, so we went to the Library and later 7 Grand. Nicole and David met up with us too. I am so happy Michelle and I were able to go out and hopefully have 2 more weeks of fun. Sunday was my asian filled day! Woke up and met Veronicas friends Guy and his sister for Dim Sum, an authentic chinese brunch. It was over in Chinatown and probably one of the more unique cuisine experiences I have ever had. You are seated in this large dinning room ballroom and waitresses come by with carts of food, fried shrimp chicken pork rice seaweed biscuit things boba mocha drinks, green tea, custardy desserts, you really have no idea what you are eating but try and stay clear of the chicken feet, yeaaah barf! but everything was so delicious and not too much I loved it! Later that evening my asian cuisine experience continued down in Culver City at K-Zo sushi bar. My first actual sushi experience! Had crispy tuna rolls, salmon terpura roll, yellow tail (my favorite), salmon, tuna, eel, and monkfish liver, and all of it wasnt that bad. I really enjoyed it all, minus the prices but I will definitely do it again. Oh and the GREEN TEA! I understand why everyone loves original chinese green tea. Its delicious, not like the store bought crap. We headed to Guy and Cindi's place after for a little dessert and conversation. It was a lovely weekend. Gomez is tonight @ the Willtern! :) So excited.
