Well, Well, Well

Wow time sure does fly, and can easily pass you by if you're not watching out. It happens. Still plugging away here in LA. It's a trying time constantly looking for employment, but such is the life I've chosen.

I have to say, that lately in my dance classes, for whatever reason I'm better than ever. How does that even work? I mean, I definitely took some time off when moving and stuff, but I'm definitely stronger. Maybe it just has to do with the fact that now that I'm here in LA I've been really cross-training and striving to be very active.

I found these crazy stairs that lead to a beautiful overlook in Baldwin Hills, where you can see like all of LA. It's beautiful! Mostly I go for the workout. I didn't count the actual stairs, but they aren't like stadium stairs, they are cement slabs in the hill that are sometimes spaced so far apart or their heights are different, that it's like lunging up the steep hill. First time I did it I made it up twice and could barely walk the next three or four days. Now I made it up four times. It's a killer, but I love it!

Yeah, so I now know that I pretty much suck at surfing. I need some help with this one. I really want to be a good surfer, because it's fun and nice to be out in the water and the beach and all that. But I'm not doing so well popping up. It's a good workout thought, and fun! So, unless I find someone that wants to help me, I'm just going to have to keep on going, and going, and going on my own until I figure it out, haha. I have read up on how to surf and watched videos, but it's not the same as when you're actually out there, of course.

It's still tripp'n me out that it's so warm and sunny here and it's fall. It's like I'm in another world. All I hear from friends on facebook or whatever is the cold fall, or the rain, or pictures of snow in the mountains. Crazy!

Things to do...find some work to support myself, go golfing, stand up fully on my surf board, and get my career roll'n!

LA Living

So, lots and lots to talk about. Clearly I need to get on board on writing more often here.

Okay, let's see.

New headshots that I think are super cool. Also, the website is currently being reworked so that my new shots are on it, new contact info, agency and manager stuff, etc. Plus, hopefully I'll be able to get some clips of my dancing up.

LA is fun so far. I'm finding it a bit difficult meeting people, but I'm working on that. Taking dance classes, going to the gym, trying to get to the beach when I can. I've started surfing. Right now I pretty much suck, but it's great to be out on the water. If only I could meed someone who has a boat for some waterskiing...that's where I feel a bit more at home when on the water.

I feel that I need to get hooking into the Hollywood scene. Clearly I mean work-wise, but more importantly, the social scene. Oh, and I'm really wanting to go to a house party out in Malibu. That's just one thing I feel I need to do.

Lots of pretty people here, which is super fun. Plus, my roommate and I were driving into Culver City a couple weeks ago on a nice hot day, and we passed a house with a yard full of leaves. I just looked over at him and said "So, I guess it's fall then.." Yeah, I barely even notice the change of season, which is an interesting change. Not complaining, bacause the sun is great!

Well, that gives you a small and brief glimpse at what's been going on. I'll try and write more so you can get a better idea about my life here in Los Angeles.
