Black friday special

Allright boys and girls! I experienced a lot in the last couple of days.
I had eaten korean BBQ for the first time in miy life. Even the tongue of cow I've tried. Was really delicious and  it was an "all you can eat" restaurant, so we were really full afterwards.
Then we were getting close to blackfriday.
(for those who don't know this: every friday after thanksgiving the stores have big discounts. The people are going crazy because of this..see the pictures.)
It was pretty cool alltough to go shooping at midnight.The only problem was that not all stores were open. For example Abercrombie and Fitch. So my roommate and I thought let's wait in front of A & F until it opens. We bought some food and coffee and waitet next to the door. We were the first ones but only for some minutes. We meet a lot of new people and it was funny. But at the end it wasn't worth it. We waited like 5 hours to be the first ones, but then the discount was only 25% and on the internet it was 40%. The other thing was, you don't have to be the first one, because there's enough for everyone. Altogether it was a cool experience, but my advice is, just go shopping at 6 am. You will catch enough clothes.

The next morning I felt really tired..omg why?! Yeah cause we didn't sleep at all -.- So we went home to go to bed at 10am until 18pm. After that we went to the "goodbye party". I was still so tired that I fell asleep.

Ohhhh I have forgotten something. On thanksgiving I did appear on TV. Here's the link:

Picture Time

Just some pics from today

love the artworks in LA ¦ Santa Monica




Hollly Whaaat?

Yes I am still alive!
So what is going on.. I had just no time to write my entries but now I am here and trying to remember.
Well.., sorry mom but I got inked by justin Jakus, an amzing artist. It's not finished yet, but looks awsome until now. My roommate was really impressed, because in Japan almost only Jakuza members get inked, so it was something he has never seen before. He took pictures and everything, even told his friends :P
what else have I experienced? ohh yeah, on saturday I've been to Hollywood. Not that special, I have to admit, but if you are here, you just have to see it. It's more a touristic place than something else. Look at the pics below and see it on your own. Unfortunately it rained on that day, that's why we went shopping a lil' bit. According to this I ate Sushi for the first time in my life. Was really delicious and of course expensive!
I think that's already everything, only a short resume of course.
Now it's sunny again, like it should be in cali, so I go skating in venice and then to 3rd Street and Nike town. So guys I just leave some pictures for you and say byee ! Have a good one ;)
Start of the walk of fame!

I knew it!

What happened?

hey you! yes you!
I am actually chilling on the couch right now, trying to remember what happened today. So let's go..:

I was at school in the morning and met for the first time my class. I am in the upper intermediate (that's like the second best level, but I think there's not a better one at my school). Anyway I am pretty content with my level and the students all speak very good, so I will learn a lot. The only thing I don't really like is, they're almost all from switzerland, which is a bit boring, but whatever. In the break I got to know to some other people.

Let's move on directly to the afternoon.
I went to Santa Monica pier with a swiss girl and a brazilian guy. After that we walked through 3rd street, took some coffee and went on. Then there happened something not that usual..
Surprise surprise..!! I will be on tv on thanksgivin at the Jay Leno Late Night Show!
Let me tell you how did this come..
Like I said we just were walking through 3rd street, when suddenly a man dressed in a military suit screamed at me. He was like: "Soldier! why are you rolling your jeans like this?! Soldier..next time wear some socks!"
I didn't got everything I think, but I just had to laugh and didn't take it that serious. Then I noticed some cameras around him, so I started reflecting. faster then I noticed, a man ran to us, asking if we want to be in TV. I was like..what?! okei... He was from NBC and just had to ask because of the rights and stuff.
That's it already. My big TV story :p I am pretty excited to see me on TV but I think you won't see a lot. Anyway it's still cool :P

What happened according to this? Not that much I guess. Just walked along venice with a couple of friends, went home and then to the gym, after that I practised a lil' bit skating and now I am here.

That's all for now. I just got some pictures for you guys. Have fun ;)) byeee
   First pic of me in LA ! yayy

Have fun at school!

Today I had my first day at school. Fortunately I was able to go to school with my roommate so I did'nt need to search the right bus for a long. Like usual in America the bus came way too late, but that wasn't a big deal. The bigger problem was the second bus which was just way too crowded. We had to wait for three other busses until we finally could enter. Because of that we got to school late..on the first day. great! after the check-in the new students took an exam. I thought it was pretty easy, so I am confident to get in a high level. After the exam they showed us the school and gave some information. I met some new people from different parts of the world, but we all were just too tired, so we went home in the afternoon.

Now I had to find back home alone. this was kind of an adventure. I took the right bus, but somehow I missed the station where I needed to transfer. So after half an hour I was located all of the sudden at the airport. There I finally went off and took a cab. I paid around unneccessary 20 bucks to get home and the river didn't look that safe. At least I survived and now I know where to get off.

Back home I practised to skate on my board I bought yesterday and I am improving.

Then there is a little surprise..I will tell more on Friday about it. Just a little hint: "Justin Jakus"

So bye guys ;) talk to you later ^^

First day in LA

Hi guys! long time no hear :P
So I've just been running at the beach of Santa Monica. Yesterday was my first day and I was just too tired to write another entry.
Well, yesterday in the morning I woke up and finally met my roommate. He seemed to be a cool guy. Like I thought he is asian, but actually from Japan. So we get to know each other a little bit and then made plans for the day. He said that he and his friends wanted to go to the universal studios and if I want to join them. Of course I said yes cause what else should I do. So we went to the EC school where we should meet them. But there was nobody cause it was a misunderstanding. That's why we needed to go to the UCLA (university of california LA). There we met them and guess what..they were all japanese. So I spent the whole day with japanese people but it was really interesting because it was a complete different culture which  I have never got to know.
UCLA campus was really big (see pic), I think even bigger than my hometown :P We were looking for the Tickets there but the ticket corner was closed so we just made some pictures of the campus and went to a mall. One thing more that was interesting, was that they even played soccer :o but not very good :p It's really not an american sport.
The mall...I couldn't believe my eyes when we entered. Bigger than anything I ever saw. We would call this a state in switzerland (okei that's a bit over the top) but still it was really big (also a pic ;) ). We found our tickets and went shopping at the beverly blvd. Where I bought an All Saints shirt (-->pic will follow). For dinner we had japanese food, which was delicious. Back at the appartment we got ready to go to the gym and the day was over. I fell asleep on the couch.

Now it's lunch time, so I'll take a shower and then go to venice to eat something and to buy a skateboard (LA style)

see you guys !

At "Home" !

Finally I have found the appartment. After a 9 hour flight without any problems I landed in LA. I had to go through the safety check like all the others but it was not that crazy like I thought it would be. So then I had to find my driver which was much more difficult then I thought. He was not waiting where all the others were so I went out of the building and I breathed for the first time american air. I have to say..it felt amazingly. After 20 minutes of searching, we finally met. His name was Taylor, a big black guy who seemed to be really nice. And he was ! he took me to the car and everything. Told me that I look like a musician..just a really cool guy. the car was a limousine we would say so in Switzerland. Enough place for every kind of people. He drove me directly to the appartment. On the way I saw how impressive LA is. A lot of super nice sports cars such as Porsche or Mustangs. You see..LA is full of rich people. But I am sure there is another side..which until now I don't know yet.
back to the story. Now I am lying in my bed writing this for you guys..my roommate I haven't met yet but it seems to be a chinese guy (his books and stuff are all in asian letters). the rice cooker I didn't saw. Maybe later ;P So that's it for now..hope you will have fun reading all my reports and see you soon ;)) pics follow later <3
