I only allow myself to either watch the news or a TV show I follow. Usually watch series online. Once in a while I can get stuck on History Channel, Style Network or Bravo (yes, we all sin) which is ok for an hour or so.

Much more productive these days but I think joining Y and working more added to that as well. When you have less time, you tend to make the most of it. At least I do.

Add all the little things up and you might turn out to be much happier than you thought you were.

Not saying that a person should not have amazing goals, hopes and dreams. But just doing a few of your “little things” of my 43 Things website can make a world of difference. Big is not always better…

Don’t get me wrong, I truly love living in LA. It’s not easy and you have to work hard at everything but it’s definitely worth it. The ocean, the beaches, the mountains, the weather… and so many great things to do.

My favorite thins is to explore LA: find new areas, take photographs, do new things. Of course this is much more fun with friends. I often meet amazing fun and genuine people with whom I have a great time but… here it comes.

The things with LA is that everybody (including me) is working long long hours leaving us with little free time. In our hours off we do bills, groceries, laundry and go to the gym.
So even if we really hit it off with someone chances are you won’t see them more than once a week… except for spouses, bf/gf or roommates. Result is shallow friendship that don’t have a chance to evolve. But if you’re lucky and it does then…

Your friend leaves! Yes, people leave here every single day! This year alone I have had to say goodbye to about 30% of my friends. Europe, SF, NYC, Austin… you name it and one of my friends is there.

So, I am going to not get sad and frustrated over this anymore. There’s a lot to see and even more to do! Who knows who I’ll end up meeting, right?
