About Me

I'm just a girl living in Los Angeles, geeky at heart but trying to fit into the stylish city that is now my home.

I knew there was a reason I liked her...

Another celebrity sighting

Sort of. The last group of volunteers I led at Dress for Success was a group from the Actors Fund. There was a bunch of kids -- one from Dexter, one from a Geico commercial, and one with a minor role in the new Red Riding Hood. I think that counts as seeing celebrities, at the very least they're stars. That was exciting =)

Right now I'm sitting at home with a cold =( I'm hoping it gets better soon, given that I have a busy weekend. I do have to shout out props to Puffs with Vicks. Those tissues are amazing!

And I'm super excited about the fact that Lion King is being released in 3D! There's a really cute theater near our place that's old school with great seats and murals on the walls, and they're actually playing the movie! I'm hoping to watch it this weekend, but I'm not hopeful given that I still have a lot of work to do on my business school essays. We'll see :)

Reflections

As I get older, I feel like there's more and more bad news and tragedy in the world. I'm not sure if it's because I pay more attention to the news or because my circle has grown and there's more bad news that affects me or those I know. It could also be because something has to balance out the extra joy - falling in love, having friends who fall in love and and have kids. Either way, I think it's only going to be sadder - but hopefully happier too - from here.
