flashing lights

welcome to Los Angeles. i marvel at this picture every time.

the most amazing thing i have ever seen was an aerial view this great city at night. i arrived to LA from San Francisco at the strike of 12. drowsy and dreary, i managed to stay awake just for this view. it was as if i was entering a new realm! the city seemed so much more lively at night than during the day. i loved it. i saw the neon lights over the tiny buildings in downtown and located the westin bonaventure stuck between all of the other flashes of lights. in that moment, i wished i could stay on that airplane forever.

then i landed and the dang airport didn't have a gate ready in time. i ended up staying on the plane, sitting next to this hugeeee guy that showered in old spice, for a good 10 minutes before my nostril hairs were about to combust. be careful of what you wish for.
