new & improved

hello everyone! i am sorry i haven't been blogging in quite a while & have not been commenting on your lovely blogs as well. i have been quite busy lately. a few days after i got back from visiting abbie in los angeles, i moved out of my parent's house to a different city! i've been busy settling in my new place & going to my graduate school classes. life has been pretty hectic! but i will try very hard to keep you all update like before : )


as you know, i went to los angeles for a week to visit my dear friend abbie. it was quite an adventure! we did so many cool things. abbie had the whole week planned out so perfectly. i want to show you ALL of the photos i took, but i believe that will be a tad overwhelming & take too long! so, here is the edited version of my trip:

i'm so light compared to abbie : )the cool walls inside the metroabbie surprised me & took me to the places in downtown la that they filmed 500 days of summer! this is the iconic park bench.& this is where tom met autumn at the end of the movie.i thought the ceiling of the observatory we went to looked neat.& of course, a vacation would not be a vacation for me with out some tasty vegetarian food! abbie took me to some of her favorite veggie places & some new ones. i'll link you to the places, if you are ever in the area : )

this is cafe muse. it's a really chill cafe with a mini art gallery & night time entertainment. serves only vegetarian food.mama's hot tamales cafe has some of the best tamales i have ever tasted.after a recommendation from liska, we checked out elf cafe. the food was absolutely amazing! & the place had a great atmosphere. serves only vegetarian food. (sorry the photos are bad quality!)the lights outside of lacma were so cool!i'll leave you with this creepy photo. i was taking pictures outside of lacma & the guy dressed as jesus was walking around posing. it was pretty strange. haha.

i'll be back to show you photos of abbie's awesome house!

i'm leaving today to visit abbie in los angeles for a week. i randomly bought a plane ticket to los angeles about a week ago. it's my one last hurrah before starting graduate school. wow i feel old.

anyways, i can't wait to see her house. she said she has a little garden too.

in other news, i am in the long process of putting tags on all of my 300+ posts. so now you will be able to see similar posts grouped together for easy subject viewing.
