Chasing Dreams and Living Them

 

This week has been cuhhh-ray-zeeee! Basically it started with an interview for an internship, and boy, was I nervous just getting ready! I actually kind of like wearing a simple professional blazer, it makes me feel important and intelligent.  There’s something about putting on that blazer, and thinking, “wow, I look good.” Hashtag GIRLBOSS.  There’s nothing better than feeling a bit in charge of your  life and going out and chasing after something you really want.  During the interview (which was more like the employers talking and less of me answering) I got excited imagining myself working in a office, a cool fashion hipster office with others like me. I can’t wait for the internship to start and the opportunities it shall bring moi! 

 

In other news, I finally caught up with some of my friends and my bestie.  If you ever get the chance, you need to try the FREE yoga sessions in Long Beach on Ocean Ave before second street… I forget the street names but it’s at 11am everyday! Good ol’ Stephanie told me about it and we went! It was, amazing. The instructor was motivating and inspiring, and breathing the fresh morning air near the beach was so relaxing and calming. It is a great way to start any morning! 

 

I caught up with one of my friends, Moonsoo, and we had such a fantastic dessert at Syrup, in Downtown Los Angeles, on 6th and Spring St. Took some photos of him for the Instagram because his outfit was on point! Please, please try the waffle desserts and the nutella crepes. It’s heaven on EARTH. No joke. Also, I had to take a quick trip to San Diego and ate at my favorite breakfast place called Snooze, with my mom. I love our mom and daughter bonding times. But Snooze is located in Del Mar and Hillcrest. GO! Just go. You’ll enjoy it. 

 

Till next time xoxo,

Getting Lost in Los Angeles

There is one thing in Los Angeles that everyone has to do:

Get lost in Downtown LA. 

Turn a wrong corner, exit on the next street, walk into that cute coffee place, drive around. Accidentally making the wrong turn is probably dangerous if it’s a one way street, but if it’s a two way, you’re on your way to an adventure. Some people may need to bring a friend, or like to have adventures alone, it’s totally fine! Discover things, find a new path. This  is all part of the new year, right?

Downtown LA has so many little boutiques, cafes, sections, businesses, everything and anything. Of course, there is Skidrow which is a sad and unfortunate destination for homeless people infiltrated with drugs and the like. So don’t get lost over there, that’s definitely a no-no.

Anyways, there are sooo many small business in Downtown and it’s great to support any of them. You don’t have to spend your money every single time, but it’s always nice to buy something small or even take pictures of it and maybe give them a little love by sharing your little discoveries on social media. That way, it gets passed around, you look awesome for finding a cute store/cafe/boutique, and people pass that around and want to check it out too! We all know how this works!

& It’s okay to be annoying and take pictures- don’t feel ashamed, because remember, (pretty much) EVERYONE has an Instagram, they do it too!

So Steph and I took a little trip to the LA Arts District, ate at this amazing hidden cafe called The Daily Dose Cafe and after, got lost and took THOUSANDS of photos. Check it out below :)
