Hey there guys!
Its been a while since my last blog and i've been up to all crazy shiz since! its currently 8.30am here and ive just packed again, as today we leave the hostel and travel down to stay in santa monica, BUT ...but whats that i hear you cry, 'whaaattt...what have i been up to since, errrr since my last blog?' Ah!! well calm down, take a seat, get comfy and i shall begin:
Day 3 shall be the day that i left you at, cos infact it was that day, and at this part of the story we are at day 4! today was time for PANCAKES! we visited the International House of Pancakes on sunset(blvd) for, well brunch, cos we were little bit of lazy b******s that morning, and i had an extremely large plate of double blueberry pancakes. needless to say it was awesome.just awesome. awesome awesome aweseome.
We did some of the sights, ya know, just to be a little bit kooky and do the touristy thing. crazy i know, we visited the legendary chinese theatre with all the famous gits feet,hand, name and what ever prints in the concrete slabs. we did the entire walk fame, went to the capitol records, downtown L.A. (the buildings are f-ing mental big. s*** me up alittle), watched a real life police arrest (it was just like the movies say), Rodeo drive beverley hills (crickey was that area pricey and upmarket, i felt like pure scum in my shorts and flipflops...to the point of actually not daring to entre any shops, saw micheal douglas! its was good, but notworth talking bout cos if you werent there, it'd be boring for you to hear!
ah we went to this amazing music shop, where just outside is the rockwalk (compared to fame walk) where some of the worlds legends prints are outside. this music shop, 'guitar centre' was insane, so so huge, guitar everywhere, easily thousands, all these different sections for different music instruments, if anyone loves music that is the place to go..it was just unbelievable!
Ah, we've made friends with this dude called matt (sheffield chap, wednesday supporter unfortuantly) over our stay here, and he came out with us one day. while out, he said he had tickets to Craig Ferguson show...well we couldnt say No to that! so we went again, tho having same problem with rucksack typically. it was even f-ing better than the first time, and that had alot to compete for. though cos of some chinese people sneaking infront, i had to have a seat found for me and sit in aisle, then steph got attacked by having sweet thrown at her eye by warm up guy...she got freebies and kiss though, so all good. the guests were Bob Saget, jennifer Esposito (some hot girl from some american show, show looks funny...called summit like samantha who), then for other day recordings we watched recording of quite good band called Grand Achives and a comedian calledn Gene Pompa. but Craig Ferguson, he was just on top form, it was so wicked being there, me and steph never stopped crying with laughter!
Now the story returns back to Hollywood Boulevard! this place is just seriously amazing, it has the most insane but awesome atmosphere...its the street performers that make it, whether it be singers, rappers, drummers, magic, odd stuff or street dancing. especially the street dancing, they are so good you just stare with mouth open in shock. The street characters can be hit or miss, cos you do get 60yrolds dressed as marilyn monroe for instance. thats not so convincing if imhonest!
AHHH, and here everything is so cheap. there so much i want to buy, so many cool clothes, and games, and dvd's, and music, and gadgets, and watches. it reallly does suck being on a budget. if ya know me well, you know im as tight as when it comes to money, well when here screw that!
ah adam you'll appreciate this, footlong subways, only $5...thats 2.50pound...true story. its insane. needless to say, ive already had 3!
right our hostel is right in the centre of hollywood blvd, awesome spot, and some crazy facts ive only just found out is that opposite us is the church from 'sister act' and immediately behind us is the school from 'Grease'...once knowing, you feel like t*** for not realising before. its the image of it! maybe not interesting for you, but i like knowing im around these top-notch places! be it two very very cheesey films.
right then, time i go, ive got to check out this place and travel down the road. sorry,looking at youmum, that it had been a while since i blogged!
hopefully can add pics at new place.
