Saturday's DTLA BBG meetup

#sweatwithLA The night before, I estimated that commute would take 40-45 mins, locating parking and walking to the meetup would take 15 mins. What I didn't account for was me snoozing the alarm and oversleeping for almost an hour. Luckily my timeline previously was to be at Grand Park by 8am; the workouts would start promptly at 8:45 am. I pick up my friend, and of course it takes us more than 10 mins to actually find parking. Then we speed-walk to the original location of the meetup, but there's another event happening, so we speed-walk to another area of the park. We made it right when they were finishing up the yoga warmup. This was my first BBG meetup and also the first time doing the workouts in a group/workout buddy setting. Although my friend and I whined occasionally: "omgg my abs are on fire; wehh; what, still 2 more mins??" It was a great experience to see so many other girls working out and pushing themselves - that truly motivated me to work hard...

The one weekend in Hollywood-Ktown-Silverlake

Darn, I'm trying to recap last weekend a week later.. I'm not sure why I haven't been able to sit myself down and reminisce with words. It's been a struggle haha. Regardless, Finally!! I am determine to finish this blog post. So, Saturday I had time to watch Youtube vids and play around with makeup:  Sarocha B Prom makeup  is what I attempted! Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of my attempt because lighting in a club is dark you see. Basically, my makeup was dark and sultry; typical girls' night out style of makeup. I had such a great moment dancing the night away and meeting new strangers  - MS54 [see what I did there, eyy haha]. However, I believe the best memory of the night may be when we left Create and right next to the exit was the glorious dirty dog stand. It is only after dancing for hours would I really ever consider buying hot dogs from the streets.. but live in the moment, and devour the experience I say! I was very ecstatic and content...

The LA adventure

DineLA fiasco is finally coming to an end. It's the beginning of February and I would like to devote this month to better clean eating . It's unfortunate how a month of eating liberally can do a noticeable number on your body. oops Anyways, I took this picture while on a rooftop bar in downtown Los Angeles and noticed the office gym across. haha NICEE view. This is dinela menu from Mo-chica, a peruvian restaurant. It was okkk  to be honest, the best part of the meal were the desserts. My friends never tried Peruvian food and I was kind of sad that their first impression of their cultural gourmet wasn't more stellar. It was mediocre at best really... But we had a great night kind of "bar-hopping" while our intention was to go down 1/2 a mile to the rooftop bar. Oh, we actually made it to the Standard  , eventually, like 2 hours later really haha. And we competitively played ping-pong while talking briefly to aussies and making friends wit...
