Eating Out in New Jersey

It goes back to the everyone knows everyone. You go to a new place, and automaticall you know all the waitresses. Most girls, and you probably went to high school together. It's funny because they talk more about their social lives and how they've been, then the food you're supposed to be ordering. They re-connect. Phone numbers, myspaces, and e-mail addresses are exchanged and plans are made to go get drinks. It's fun and relaxed. In a way, so much better then L.A. Everyone is so nice and they really try to help you out. I wish that the places in L.A. were like this. People are so afraid of who their customers are that they don't take a chance to be the friendly extraordinary people they are. They are stiff and don't add anything to their job. It's rare that you find waiters who are fun and comfortable. Really makes me miss the Jersey Shore.

Notes to the ones I love...part 1

Alicia
I can always rely on her for everything. She always has the perfect thing to say. There are two people that can make me smile no matter what and she is one of them. She understands how I feel. I love her so much for it. I don't know where I would be without her. We just connect like that. God knows why. But I would never do anything to jepordize our relationship. She means too much to me. I love her so much. Alicia, thank you for sticking with me through everything. I love you forever!

Him

He is smart, funny, beyond sexy, so why, why must he enter my life in the total wrong time. Okay not the total wrong time. But he doesn't want a relationship, honestly niether do I. I just want to have fun, with him of course, but will I get too attached? I can already see myself falling for him. Tell me what good can come of this? Besides the sex, because we all know that that would be amazing. There is no doubt there. Honestly, here is my question, what the fuck do i do?

A Jersey Girl From Cali Back In Jersey

Well the title said it all. I am a Jersey native who moved to Cali and now i'm back in Jersey for two weeks. It's good to finally be out of Los Angeles for a little bit. I'm getting a break from all the craziness that you get in LA. I love being here and being so close to the ocean and seeing all of these families and old houses. It's so great. I really love it here. I would love to end up here in the end. I am in Margate right now. It's near Atlantic City. South Jersey. Things are just so different out here. The way people act, the way things are done. It's really kind of funny. BUt it has a really homey feeling that is really welcoming. The thing that I love the most is all of the mom and pop style restuarants and stores. There aren't many chains, sure they have a McDonals, and CVS but I haven't seen a Starbucks or Jamba Juice since I got here. I feel odd being so far away from a Taco Bell though. I miss my Taco Bell. I feel close to my mom though, when i'm here. This was the place that she died. The last place she was, I fell like she is still here. God I miss her. And it's strange because I'm not even sure how I can. Seeing as how I never really got to know her. I was 15 months when she died. Anyway, I am here until August 30th. I'll be sure to post some pics soon.

Acuality

What does it even mean?
I've been thinking about this all day.
Acuality, reality...why? Why do we even need them. Why can't we just be happy with our imaginations.
Nobody uses them anymore, the creative side of people is dying everyday. It's so sad. I was watching some little kids the other day and it just amazed me on how easy it is for them to entertain themselves. Even when just sitting in a waiting room, they find something to amuse themselves with. I wish that I could just go back to that. To not knowing what bored is, and always seeing the brighter side of things. We all wish that we were younger/older, fatter/skinnier....ect. I don't. I just wish that that part of my imagination would come back.
xoxo for now

Lunch in Los Angeles




So I went to lunch today with Jason who is a very very close and dear friend of mine.



It's funny how we started out in North Hollywood and ended up in Sherman Oaks at Mels.



Living in Los Angeles, there are so many options it can be hard to chose. I have spent 45 minutes just going up and down Ventura Blvd. trying to decide where to eat. How crazy is that? LA is such a big city that it's so easy to get lost in all of the magic that it holds. There are so many restaurants to choose from, so many different types of food. From all around the world even. In many towns you have the average burger joint, chinese, mexican, and Italian to choose from. In Ls Angeles, you have that times 10.
