Exploring the city

LA is an industry town (film), NOT a college town, so you have to do a bit of exploring when you want to soak up the 'local atmosphere'. But exploring is half the fun! Favorite spots include Manhattan Beach, Mid-Wilshire/Miracle Mile for LACMA, Melrose Ave, Getty Center in Brentwood, and Runyon Canyon.

Awkward by-The-Bay Weather

It is always freezing in the morning, but the day gets warmer and warmer. You always have to be wearing something thin under something really thick because you don't know what to expect. I am usually colder because it looks sunny, so I am mentally prepared for it to be sunny but it ends up being either windy or cold because we are by the ocean. I love the cold, but at least if I am somewhere like Canada, I know for sure it is going to be cold so I know what to wear unlike here. Southern California weather is good though, it is just awkward when you're school is right next to the beach, but overall we have beautiful weather.
