Los Angeles - Part 2

Days are starting to blur together. I decided to extend my stay until the 20th because I just hated the thought of leaving this place. So, I will be here a total of three weeks. Tuesday, was a laid back kind of day. I worked on some of my online class and later in the day we went to Maya's place. Jasmine did a photoshoot with Maya and I hung out with Sonny. After, we went to Pink Taco for dinner. Walked the Hollywood walk of fame later and then bed.






Wednesday, I went to MOCA (The Broad) with a friend. This is probably my favourite museum in LA. It had Kara Walker, Jeff Koons, Barbara Kruger, Chuck Close, Keith Harring, William Kentridge, and an by far my favourite video installation piece. It was called The Visitors score, by Ragnar Kjartansson (2012). I'll attach a video of what I got out of it and an audio. Closed my eyes for a few minutes, it was so peaceful and calming. Had a unique and artsy character about the piece. It was a bunch of projections of people singing and/or playing an instruments around a small dark room, at the end of their video, the individuals in the individual projections all came together in one projection. I'm terrible at explaining so hopefully you understand when you see it. Later, Jasmine and I picked up Symphony (@thisissymphony) at LAX. She is does makeup tutorials on youtube, and she is absolutely beautiful and nice. Later, on the 12th (Symphony's birthday) Zaida her friendwill be coming... Zaida is an old friend from high school, I don't think I've seen her since graduation! It will be five girls in one apartment for a few days. Oh, also Wednesday night, we went to a house to hang out with their friend, Brick. He is from The SuperDuperCrew or Kyle.






             




Thursday, I did my online class from 8:30 to 4pm maybe 5pm. I deserved to go out, so Jasmine and I got dinner at The Cheesecake Factory (the one she works at, discount). Then around 11pm, went to her work's soccer game. I played and, wow, I miss soccer. Then, hot tub with them at the gym. Tried the steam room with Jasmine and it was so hard to breathe in there, we were dripping sweat after a minute of sitting in there. Oh, today, Bo (Jasmine's puppy, cocker spaniel) was given to her friend because it's too much for her too take care of. Plus, she has work so she is barely home. So sad but so true.
