Why I Dig LA


Created with Admarket's flickrSLiDR.

Whenever someone asks me if I like LA, I automatically answer, "yea."

Then comes the next question.

"WHY?"

I'm always a little put on the spot when asked.

"DUH..I just DO?"

Sure, I can wax poetic and drone on and on about why I like LA. (cut to glazed distant look in friend's eye) But sometimes words fail to grasp the whole meaning. I think the closest way I've come to fully articulating my happiness with Los Angeles has been through all the photos I've taken since I moved here.

Sometimes, all the reasons I need are the things which make me go, "OOOOOOOOH!"

Me Post-Potter


by Tom Sito



My boss drew this after I told him I was planning on going to a Harry Potter Book Release party tonight.

"You're going to look like an Edward Gorey character...staggering into the office late, clutching your copy of the book, hair stringy, grey bags under your eyes..."


UPDATE: Oh my god. I just read the actual description of the party I'm going to.
I don't know if I can handle this level of fan-geek-dom.

Staying Happy in La-La Land

1. Say what you mean.
2. Do what you say.
3. Always assume the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.
4. Don't talk shop in your free time.
5. Don't do something you would be ashamed of.

I think one of the biggest concerns about moving to Los Angeles is that once you work in Hollywood, you're in danger of "letting the business change you", "turning bad" and worst of all "going Hollywood". I admit, sure I see some of this happening but it isn't true for everybody here. I've met some wonderfully sincere and successful people, and I choose to focus on them rather than the latter.

Here's some of the good advice I've picked up from the bits and pieces of conversations I've had. Everyone sees a newbie in Hollywood and feels it's their duty to preserve their innocence.
LOL!

Staying true to oneself is always important, especially here.

Simpson Technicolor Confection Treats

Beautiful or Disgusting? Disgustingly Beautiful? Beautifully Disgusting? I think I'm about to go into a seizure.

I see....a sucker for savvy marketing.
