The crazy part about living in LA is the crazy weather patterns that come with it. I love how it is so sunny and warm one day, but a couple of days we get a little rain here and there. Today was a good example of that- it finally rained! Don’t get me wrong though,…

Keeping up with the Big Dogs
Have you ever attempted to seem really cool and with it and then realized that it is beyond your power to be in control of such a feat? No, just me? You’re all really cool suave people? Well ok then! I have come to a point in my life where I can admit the fact…
How to (not) go to premieres
I had originally planned to write an awesome blog post this week about how I got to go to not one but TWO premieres within the span of five days. But I cannot and will not be writing that post because it turns that I failed miserably and did not get to go to either…
Super Sunday at UCLA
As a Bruin Ambassador, I often am asked the question about what life is like living away from home. I usually tell people that everyone’s experience is different, but that you quickly adjust and make UCLA your new home. A great example of this is when events that you are used to happening and experiencing…
Touring LA
After having spent 3 whole years as a resident of the Los Angeles metropolis, and as I come up on my final quarter here as a student at UCLA, I realized that there is so much about this beautiful city that I have left to learn about. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve done my…
Lazy afternoons in Westwood

Scates is believed to be the only current NCAA coach to have won titles in five decades, starting in the 1960’s! Did you know that Campbell Hall was originally built…
80 in January? Only in LA!
What an unusually warm day in January! According to the weather report, it was past 80ºF (27ºC) in the middle of the day, and even late at night it is a pleasant 60ºF (14ºC). Only in LA do you get the perk of being reminded of summer weather in the middle of the winter…
The Getty, Ladies and Gentlemen
Now I know that we have mentioned the Getty before on this blog. But. It deserves more than a mention. The Getty Center is my favorite place in Los Angeles. And let me tell you why. It is gorgeous. Like just strikingly beautiful. The architecture, the view, the tram, the gardens (the gardens!). It all…
