So here's the update:

I am currently sitting in a Starbucks in the middle of Culver City (Part of LA). This is the first time I have even bothered with the internet. Zak and I have been spending way too much time here because the hotel is shit and this has internet connection.

It is also pouring right now so we are very reluctant to leave this Starbucks. We literally I have been here for about 5 hours. Pathetic I know.
The only thing to do around here when it rains is to go see a movie but we've already seen 6 movies in a span of only three days.



1.) Inside Man : It was funnier then I had expected and was a lot different than all of Spike Lee's other films. I enjoyed it although other people we were with thought the ending was a little bit of a cliffhanger. I say the ending just leaves it up to your imagination...and if you dont have one you wont like it.
2.) She's the Man : Ha well this one is not realistic, but again this one was also funnier then I had expected. In fact I saw it twice. I also have a weird soft spot for trashy teen comedies. If you don't share that soft spot you will not enjoy it. Plus Amanda Bynes might get on your nerves at times. Her Love interest though Channing Tatum I fell in love with which explains why I saw it twice and plan on seeing it again.
Channing Tatum
3. Thank You for Smoking : This is a satire piece on a spokesman for a big tobacco company, I enjoyed it a lot. And even though it was a little awkward for me being a smoker and all to see it with a bunch of non smokers I still thought it was hilarious.
4.) The Hills Have Eyes : This one had potential to be a better movie than it turned out to be. They over-explained things which in turn kinda left them a bit confusing and pointless. Cheap scares and altogether just a depressing story. Instead of it being based around a bunch of teenagers it was based around a happy family which just made it even more horrifying. And then just sucked.
5.) Stay Alive : This one started off okay and I was enjoying the cast until this one part in the movie where everything took a complete 180 from the original idea and turned into a shitty story that did not make any sense. I spent the rest of the night boggled by how it turned out. It didnt even stay being about a fucking game. It was bullshit
6.) Failure to Launch : Basically this movie is How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days with a few minor changes. Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew McConaughey weren't even that good, I mean compared to the rest of the cast they were medicore. The ensamble cast ranging from her drunk best friend to his nature loving wanderer and dorky bestfriends made the movie enjoyable

Anways there hasn't really been much to do here but see movies and walk around the different parts of the city
Zak and I ran into Don Cheadle (from Oceans 11 and Hotel Rwanda) coming off an elevator with his two daughters in Santa Monica
We went thrifting one day, but honestly their thrift stores and goodwill chains do not compare to any ones I have to been to around Chicago. They just remind me of ragstock with their rediculous prices.
I've been to Venice beach a few times, taken some pictures, met some interesting people.

We're going to a screening tomorrow for some Hugh Jackman movie which should be fun.
I met my cousin Szache who lives out here and hangs out with Zak alot. She's pretty badass and it makes me mad to think it took me 18 years to meet her.

But really thats all I have to say right now
I hope everyone else is having a good time where they are
I miss you guys so if youre bored give me a call I'm not busy here.
peace and love
