Hello friends.

This weekend was quite eventful. 

On Saturday, my friend Angel and I met for lunch in Uptown Whittier where we 
stumbled upon an old car show that was going on (second to last photo). They had a
ton of vintage cars, it was pretty neat. After my friend Tyler and I drove up to the Getty 
which was so incredible, I couldn't help but to instantly fall in love with the place. 
(middle batch of photos). And lastly, on Sunday night a few of my friends and I 
drove up to Little Tokyo to have dinner at a restaurant called Orochon Ramen
My guy friends are fans of the TV show "Man VS Food" so naturally they suggested 
this place. I must admit, it's worth all the hype and I definitely recommend it. We 
had an awesome view of the city (last photo) and after dinner we walked around 
Little Tokyo where we came across a dozen wish trees. I was excited to see them, 
I've only seen photos of them in your blogs. Before leaving, we all wrote and hung 
our wishes from one of the trees. I love knowing that my wish is hanging amongst the 
hundred others. This weekend I felt so hopeful and wish I could spend more of my 
days walking around the city at night, exploring. The city lights comforted me in 
ways I did not know were possible.

Also, here's another song I'd like to share with you. I've had Adele's album 21 on repeat 
for the last few weeks.


This last song on the album is heartbreakingly beautiful.
