I'm physically exhausted... I literally just got back from a 4 days 3 nights trip to the 'Big Apple'... mind you it's long driving with friends and even if I didn't really contributed with the driving on the way back... being curled up in the car, sleeping crooked and unconfortable beside your friends really doesn't help.... like I've said at this point I'm physically tired.....
But I got the phone call from one of my college friends in nursing... she invited me to come with them to Hollywood... since her boyfriend is a manager of Air Canada we got mad hook ups... and I mean seriously mad hook ups... I don't know how to even emphasize that!...
Anyways, so I am gone again... for the second round.... second dose of travelling just the weekend after the weekend at NYC.... I flew with friends to LAX (Loas Angeles, California.... I've always wanted to go to LA... always wondered how would it be like living there... and since I'm in the point of my life where I am old enough to make some smart choices and successful enough to move and find a job within my profession... I thought maybe this
is the moment where I can feel the how it is living in LA.....
Honestly, flying there and coming back within 48 hours is not really reasonable to judge a place... I didn't really spend enough time in LA since the sole reason why we were invited there was to go and check out Universal Studios... and so we did.... I've been to one 2 years ago by Orlando, Florida and that was amazing... I had a blast.... the one in LA is quite different.... there's not much rides but we got see and feel how it is to be a movie star.... with the backlot and studios and their special effects right in front of our eyes... it is deffinetely.... movie magic....
Of course... Hollywood is known for shopping... so we end up visiting one of their malls.... and since it's a holiday in the states (memorial day).... omg... have I ever been super lucky..... soooo many nice dresses and clothes on sale!...
But what do I really feel about LA? Well despite the fact that here in Toronto, last call of alcohol in the clubs is at 2am and most clubs closes at 3am unless
if there's an after party which closes even later... I was shocked to find out that one of the infamous party central place in America, at Los Angeles, the clubs last call for alcohol is at 1 and they start kicking people out at 1:45am to close at 2am... WOW... find it kinda weird... well from where I'm coming from of course....
Anyways... so inspite of that.... for the very brief time I've spent in California, it wasn't enough to judge the place by its cover.... it's a quiet suburban city... and compared to NYC.... I'm the type who somewhat like organized chaos (since I am a nurse in the E.R.).... I love the city and maybe to visit since I have friends who lives in LA... I don't mind at all but to live... for now... I love my city... I toronto and if I were to move.... I'd definetely think twice... but it would be NYC... and maybe... just maybe.... LA...
