the LA way

so just got back from the AFI film festival in LA..

went for the princess of nebraska screening..festival was kinda dead, compared to TIFF..i wonder if it has anything to do with the WGA strike.

so we spent 20 minutes driving up and down the whole 7 storeys of parking at the arclight  theatre before finally finding parking, and were late for the screening.

then my LA buddies suggested that we all go get our cars and go get a drink at  vine bar a block away(the new yorker in me wanted to know why we couldnt just walk since it was only a block away, but apparently u just dont do that in LA).

so there we were again, circling for another half an hour on a saturday night trying to find street parking before finally giving in to valet.

then everyone just orders a gingerale because they all have to drive and cant get drunk, except for my buddy simon..

so this continues for the next few nights, with everyone drinking gingerale and coke, while trying to convince me that people in LA drink  as much as  people in NY..

but korean food in LA is very decent!

and there is my favorite CANTALOOP!! (cantaloop beats pinkberry hands down!)

(my buddy reto not so thrilled about the 4th consecutive day of his frozen yogurt diet!)

everytime i come to LA i put my friends on the once/twice a day fro-yo diet;0)

(the magic light)

(simon and reto)

at least this time i didnt crash my car!!
