What I've Learned Today

I have arrived in the city of angels... also known at Los Angeles, or LA or Hollywood, whatever.
Currently I am sitting on my massive bed in my massive room eating Chinese food (it, sadly, is not massive, but is at least decently sized seeing as I haven't eaten in almost 11 hours).

But seriously, my room is huge. It's got a king sized bed, two bedside tables, giant double dresser, a walk in closet, a big ol'sink area and... a very small bathroom.
Smaller than my one back home, and trust me, that's saying something.
My bathroom is about as small as my room is massive, but it's no biggie, especially since the sink isn't jammed in there.

Now that I am all unpacked (though I need to fix this crooked mirror) let's talk about what I have learned about LA thus far.

I learned that I am living in the Hollywood Hills, go figure.
I learned that my apartment is definitely not near the airport.
I learned that the Oakwood apartments have a building for every letter of the alphabet, and that they have free brunch every Sunday!!!!!!!
I learned that I should not send coffee mugs through the mail to LA, even if they are wrapped in bubble wrap and clothes, cause two of three broke (thankfully my oldest and my favorite one didn't break, what I took from this is that you can break Shakespeare (mugs) but not Radiohead (mugs))
I learned that it's really weird to see grass, green trees and flowers in early January.
I learned that I still have shitty luck with flights (as my flight to Denver was delayed meaning I would miss my LA flight, but I worked it out).
I learned that riding down hill in golf carts freaks me the fuck out.
I learned that my room provides me with far too much storage space (6 dresser drawers, 8 sink drawers and a double-doored cabinate, a linin closet with 8 shelves, two bedside tables with one drawer each and a large walk-in closet).
I learned that I haven't learned much at all about LA yet.

And lastly I learned, thank to a little cookie, that I will be the guest of a gracious host. 04 15 26 39 42, 5
