Hollywood!

So I left off my last post kind of in the middle of a sentence if I remember correctly because I went in to such detail about everything (partly cause it happened the day before and was so fresh) but now a week has passed since my last excursion and I don't think I will be thaaat descriptive and ware myself out lol. So this trip was so exciting. The only set back was that the people in NYC told me I would need to buy my own gown after they already told me they would provide a stylist to do that. So I was annoyed to say the least cause A) I dont know what to wear and B)I dont know what will fit my unique shape properly C) I dont have all this money lying around on such short notice (a week) so I went shopping and spent hours online and in malls trying to find the perfect gown amiss prom shoppers it was hard!  So my aunt whose husband is the CFO of Nordstrom's got me a beautiful dress from there eventually and I was so happy!! I took the picture and sent it to the offices of NYC and they said ok good! The whole dress thing gave me a lot anxiety because it's hard to find a dress that's not super short and right for someone who is tall anddd thick! Plus I like sleeves and light colors but I was willing to compromise on sleeves. So anywho I got it tailored in 2 days thank goodness after my aunt paid extra to have it sent in 24 hours. Meanwhile I got the blonde dyed out of my hair which I hated to begin with (all the blonde was a project for my friend's beauty school and I only had it for 3 weeks though everyone thought longer) but I had had 2 strips dyed since july so it felt weird to go back! The day before I left I went to a Hunger Games party at my library and had a blast and it definitively got me pumped!  We also had a conference call with the freelance producer Mike (he has worked for Ellen and Kelly Ripa too!)  on what we would be doing and it sounded like a lot of work! He even referred to himself as a "slavedriver" joking, of course but I was like oh no.  Cause when people are really controlling and bossy well I'm controlling and bossy so I was nervous about our dynamics lol. On the way to the airport I got my driver to read it!  Well he said he would, hope it was not just to shut me up...lol (;

So the flight was long but there were tvs and snacks so I was good! There were even moving maps so I knew where we were flying over!  My favorite was the Rocky Mountains, so pretty. Can't wait to visit my aunt there! Anyways I arrived and it was the same deal, driver with my name, yada yada. And I say yada yada cause I'm kinda used to it now...and later I'll explain why that's kinda sad!  So I finally arrived to my hotel where I stayed in a huge suite! Like mega huge, Kara and I would share the room but it was like 2.5 rooms in one!  So I waited for her and her nice mom and sister to come but in the meantime went to look for food!  I walked downstairs and across the street to the Staples Center and Nokia Theater (I would've eaten there but the hotel was under construction and remember what happened last time I ate snacks in my room...) so I went    and looked for food and saw there was a HUGE hunger game event in front of both nokia and staples where the premiere would be the following day!  This was what I had read about, the fans who sleep out there get to get tickets to see the movie but it was so cool! There were tents and tons of signs and celebs from the movies were coming and signing stuff! I was amazed, but still hungry so I looked and looked but all there was was Woolfgang Puck and Katsuya where I know celebs eat all the time! Finally I found ESPN restaurant and dug in! So this actually is really long lol, I'll write more tomorrow!
