Well travelers, for those of you who already went on spring break I hope it was as wonderful as mine!
Some highlights of my trip to Los Angeles:
The apartment we were staying is was PRIME location for walks on Hollywood Boulevard and the Sunset Strip!
I spent several hours walking up and down both streets, popping into tourist shops, celeb hotspots and taking pictures of stars (the ones on the sidewalk not in real life).
I was lucky enough to have a single celebrity sighting of Anthony Michael Hall stopped next to us at a red-light in a sexy sports-car.
I highly reccommend a few places if you are ever in the LA area. Joan’s on Third
is a DELICIOUS gourmet cafe (a favorite of celebrities like Jake Gyllenhaal) that won’t break your bank. They have everything from sandwiches and salads to cupcakes and pastries
I mentioned before that we spent a considerable amount of time in Venice beach area. Perfect place to buy interesting and original artwork.
My final favorite place of the week is The Grove. Its this neat little outdoor shopping mall/plaza/thing. However if you follow it around the corner to the Farmer’s market you will find the most amazing selection of foods! 
The entire thing looks like a european outdoor market. My roommate indulged herself is some spicy New Orleans style gumbo with pepper cornbread while I opted for a delicious italian style meat lasagna. We followed dinner with a giant slice of red velvet cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory while sitting on a bench outside the dancing fountains.
All in all, I cannot wait for my next trip to Los Angeles, and hope its sooner rather than later!
