Wherever I go, I bring down the house!

The internship has started, and I'm officially Production (coffee boy) Assistant! That's getting ahead of myself though. Last Wednesday I loaded up the truck to the brim with everything I thought I might need for my little excursion out west. The motorcycle I didn't think would be a

good decision in LA, so I brought it home for my dad to play with this summer. I now only wish I had as much room to park as I do in this picture...trucks were not made for this city.

Anyways, after saying goodbye to the rest of my family, Dad and I peaced out of Mont Belvieu about 8am on Saturday. We drove all day to Tucson, AZ. Nothing like 16 hours of sitting on your butt all day to make you feel accomplished. Then yesterday we left at 8 again and made our way into Hollywood. After finding my house, meeting my landlord for the first time, and

unloading everything I took Dad to his hotel at the airport. I had to fight back the tears when I finally said goodbye and told him love him. I actually did a pretty good job of it until I got to the top of a mountain that overlooks the city while driving home from the airport. When I saw that huge smoggy thing in front of me, I could only think, "holy s***, I'm all alone." At that point the flood gates opened.

I then slowly made my way back to my cozy little room:











I wanted to get my room set up and then go see my buddy Jace for the first time in close to 6 months. So while I was getting everything arranged I got to experience my first EARTHQUAKE! It measured like 5.0 on the richter scale. What are the chances that the day that I finally arrive in Los Angeles there would be a friggin' earthquake?! It's a sign, I'm telling you.

It was only minor where I was, but still felt like the earth just turned to Jelly. I honestly had no idea what had happened until I got a phone call from Jace and then Dad. I threw on the news right after it. Just one more thing to cross off the bucket list, haha.

After the slight bit of chaos and a few phone calls, I finally met up with Jace and saw his lovely girfriend Liz and spoiled dog Toby. All in all, it's been an eventful few days, but until next time...

peace, love, and crabs.
