Living la Vida Loca

Sorry for the lack of update! I have been constantly going. Well since my last post a lot has happened...
Went to a Dodgers game! We lost, but it was still fun. While waiting to get an internship, I went on several adventures.
Some friends and I went to the fashion district and went around to see the spots from 500 Days of Summer. We saw the bench, the DVD rental store, the karaoke bar, and the Fine Arts Building.
A couple days later, Lucy and I went to the Bronson caves where several movies have been filmed such as the Scorpion King. Lucy and I tried to hike up a hill that really wasn't able to be hiked up...especially in flip flops. We hiked up a different hill and had a great view of the area. We also went by the Sorority House from House Bunny.
A couple other people and I also went to Randy's Donuts. Its the donut shop with the giant donut on top that Iron Man sat on in Iron Man 2.
I had an interview at Jerry Bruckheimer Films and...I got an internship there! I have worked three days there and love it! The people there are awesome and I enjoy working with them. 
Rebecca, the program director, took a group of us cliff jumping. It was a lot of fun. I jumped from a 15 foot cliff and a 25 foot cliff. Loved it.
Connor and Felicia are now in Mexico and on their way had a layover in LA. So I went to the airport to meet them and mom flew in and surprised them. It was so good to see Mom, Connor and Felicia again! I took them around Hollywood and grabbed In N Out Burger with them.
I got to go to a Muse concert! It was amazing! I absolutely loved it.
Since I now have an internship, the free time has lessened as well as the adventures, so this weekend Josh Lucy and I decided we needed to do something. We went to the Pasadena area and tried to go to a gold mine, but the trail was closed so we went to a nearby trail. Of course instead of taking the normal trail we went up a water run off instead. It was harder, but more fun. At the end we had to rock climb about 45 feet up. We took the easy trail back down. You can always count on us to do something stupid and make a fun time out of it.
I am going location scouting this afternoon for one of our film projects. Its going to be a good film. I am the production designer for it. On our other video project I am producer. We are finalizing the pre-production phase and are soon moving into production. Homework keeps coming and life is busy, but I am still taking the time to have fun.
Life is going great out here and I am enjoying every minute of it. I will try to keep the blog updated more so you know what is happening in
