My friend, Carissa asked me today if I was happy about being back in Los Angeles. Uh ... do we need to ask??? How could you not be happy when you're driving home and you get to see this from your car window?
Okay, well I didn't see this exact view from my car, but definitely something similar!
You, too would be able to take photos like these if your parents' house was on a hill!
Suffice it to say, I'm definitely coming down from the high of "I'M BACK IN LA!!!!" syndrome. It is interesting to note that I'm still experiencing many of the same symptoms that I felt while in NY - although I was warned that just because I changed my location all my demons wouldn't go away. So it's not a total surprise that I'm starting to be obsessive - again. I did say that I was going to try to give that up this year, right? Lol! It's proving to be difficult because I'm just so ready to start working. I'm currently job hunting but for the most part, I'm bored outta my mind! So a lot of free time = time for Simmone's mind to start obsessing. It'd be a lot easier if I had money to buy things to furnish my new apartment. I've decided that my apartment is just going to be my ongoing pet project. I'm slowly starting to envision what I'd like the interior design to look like. I guess the plus side of living in an NYC apartment is that you don't really have much furniture because there isn't really much room for furniture in the first place. So essentially, my current apartment, which is almost 3x's larger than my Manhattan apartment, and significantly cheaper in rent, is a little empty. But I guess it's a vicious circle:
- Bored out of my mind --> I'll furnish my apartment! --> Need money --> Need job --> Job hunt --> Wait for response from employers --> Bored out of my mind.
Goal for tomorrow: Get a Ross Report so I can start mailing in headshots = something to do.
Note taken.
And of course, who could've missed Barak Obama's inauguration??? Well, I'm not going to say much about it, since everything that could have been said has been said. But I will say, can we look at the expression on the man's face when he looks at his wife??? Hopefully some day a man will look at me like that. *cue a simultaneous Awwwwww!* Yeah, yeah ... the die-hard romantic in Simmone and all that crap ... shaddup!!!
