The good.The bad.The ugly.

Well here I am in the lovely, but very smoggy, Los Angeles, California. So far so good I guess. But then again, this trip surely has it's goods and bads. I'm pretty lucky to be able to see so many places in the world. I've been to almost ever major city in Canada and getting to see more of the United States. The past 2 years I've been lucky enough to go and travel to different places in north america. It's great. But LA is pretty unique.


The Good
Never in my life have I seen so many different types of interaction. Whilst driving around Los Angeles and Hollywood, I've seen people dancing crazily in their cars, people singing inside them, couples sharing a sweet kiss on a bench on Rodeo Drive. I've seen a lesbian couple in their apartment (they had the window open, and it was a red light, i'm not a creeper T_T ) share a cute hug with eachother. I've seen families that just seem so perfect. It's so unique here. The beaches are beautiful and have so much action. Especially Venice beach, where there's all sorts of people. I saw white people in freaking sari's. They're like white east indians. The food here is pretty good too. There's all sorts of restaurants. Beverly hills was soooo pretty! The houses are huge and everything is super clean. Rodeo drive is so.... i dont know.. fabulous? Hollywood blvd is PACKED with people, especially asians. But lucky me, I randomly ran into Hot Topic (: yaaay! Oh, and the radio stations arent bad, continuous music. AND THERE'S A KOREATOWN AND A LITTLE TOKYO =D


The Bad
Los Angeles is really really smoggy. You can only see so far because the haziness of the smog hides everything. You can only see vague outlines of buildings! So much pollution everywhere...kinda gross. Then most of LA is really really really really dirty. There's so much $h*t everywhere, garbaage! It feels pretty gross to walk around or drive while seeing trash and litter everywhere... sick. The weather here wasn't what I expected either. It was supposed to be really hot here. Like... 30-40 degrees. Instead, most of the time, the weather is below 20.. and it gets pretty cloudy and chilly. This really sucks because I didn't bring a sweater or any long pants, I admit it was pretty stupid of me but... it's LA. People walk around shirtless and in bikini's. Then again.,, I guess they're used to it.


The Ugly
Although this trip has been mostly good, it's also pretty hectic as well. My mom is causing a LOT of headaches. Constant moodswings and just really getting on our nerves. We're in Los Angeles and sometimes she says she just wants to stay at the hotel. She had a fit because we were going to venice beach.. a really famous beach... Venice board walk, muscle beach , HUNDREDS of people everywhere. Everythings happening there. And she gets mad because it's apparently too "sunny" out. And she's scared of getting dark. aaaghh... sooo filipino. But then again, I cant bash her too much, she's still my mom. And i still love her no matter what. She has great traits but some really annoying ones. She got kind of mad at me today because i said i wanted to go to koreatown/little tokyo and see venice beach. My dad was like "wtf" face. Im sorry for mentioning where I wanted to go when my dad asked me? It's more complicated then that.. but that's the shortest way I could put it. And yeah.. she just gets really mad at me and my dad for no reason then... 10 minutes later, shes super nice. W.T.F Dx
