Give Me More!

When I moved to Los Angeles two years ago, I thought that I would be extremely homesick. I was wrong. Instead, I adjusted quickly to the pace that comes with being in a college environment and the only time I would ever come home was on winter/summer break. After graduation, I figured that adjusting to the post-grad life would be extremely arduous as well. Again, I was wrong. Aside from taking night classes, not much has changed. I still workout on the daily (about to invest in a gym pass and I’m currently leaning towards 24 Hour). I still remain in close contact with my (good) friends. I’m still keeping myself busy with work. I still wake up early in the morning. It’s great. I went straight from the denial stage to finally accepting the reality of it all.

After my trip to Norcal, I realized that I need more dosage of San Francisco. I have yet to explore the city, nightlife, and its beautiful people. While I had the opportunity to see old friends and meet new ones, I know there’s still much of the city that I have yet to experience. So what have been doing in the meantime? Reading. I read a lot. I watch a lot of online discussions, commencement speeches, motivational seminars, and etc. I’m also extremely sore from my 2 hour and 40 minute workout yesterday.

Other things I would like and will do this summer:

  • Roadtrip
  • Electric Daisy Carnival
  • Movie Drive-in
  • Swim in the ocean
