MOCA: LA TRANSMISSION

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Friday guys!
Here's another one of my outing posts.  I'm trying very hard to incorporate my lifestyle (weekends) to this blog so everyone can get a glimpse of who I really am.  A lot of my weekends and life in general consist of the boyfriend, great eateries, places to go, art, and anything I find amusing.

Two weeks ago, MOCA was wrapping up their LA Transmission show and just before it left, I had to go visit.  This show was absolutely amazing and I wished it lasted longer! I believe this show was only 2 weeks long and it viewed a lot of artists I've never heard of.

NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM, CA.

 

 

 

  

Happy Friday! Here's one of my latest travel posts.  I've seriously been "deprived" or somewhat "uninspired" by my surroundings and I've fallen into this dark phasing moment... maybe I'm just going through my so called "mid life crisis" episodes...I honestly don't even know what I'm looking for and all I know is that I'm in need of some madd inspiration.  I never been to the Natural History Museum so I thought it would definitely be a great place to get some "animalistic" inspiration.

I have to say it was really a different experience and I recommend everyone visiting.  Right now they do have a show going on where you can see and walk into a space full of butterflies but since I didn't purchase my tickets sooner I couldn't see it.  (It would have been insane to have butterflies fly everywhere around you!) Everything at the museum is lifelike and the dinosaurs are truly breathtaking!

Enough with my short episodic rants.
I do hope everyone enjoys a fabulous weekend!

LA TIMES FESTIVAL OF BOOKS 2012

 

 

 

 

 

I hope everyone had a fab weekend! I for one tried to get inspired and headed out to LA to check out the LA Times event: Festival of Books.  I have to say, overall the experience was pretty worth it.  I didn't expect the event to be this big, but wow it was frekkin packed with rows and rows of booths, books and people!   Overall, I wished I'd grabbed some cookbooks (vegetarian cookbooks were on the racks for like $5-10 a pop!!!)  Great prices right?

If you've never been, definitely check it out next year! It's held annually and its a great time to sit and relax on the grass while listening to some poetry, enjoy food truck foods and get steals on books!  What's so great about this event is that you get to see a lot of great speakers and you get to explore USC!!

RUNNING AROUND LITTLE TOKYO, LA

 

  

 

I do hope everyone had a wonderful, fabulous weekend!
I'm trying to keep up with my list to do's and places to go this year, so I thought I'd share my weekends with you guys.  Here are some random pictures of what I've been wearing and where I've been chillin...  Can you guys guess where I've been chillin at?  Little Tokyo, Downtown LA, of course!  If you've never been, definitely check it out, it has a little bit of everything- food, culture, Hello Kitty, and a lot of mochi!

LACMA PT2

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Recapping my recent visit to LACMA.  I saw a lot of art that I really liked, especially Picasso, Andy Warhol and Kandinsky.  Unfortunately, I missed out on Frieda Kahlo's work and I do think I'm going back to see that one in a couple weeks or so.  If any of you get the chance, visit LACMA and check it out (In Wonderland exhibition).  Her work will be show cased until May I believe.
