Playing Mini-Golf with friends
In the afternoon we went to play bowling with Tim's mom and his brother, and then later in the evening me, Tim, Rhys, Ben and Hannah all went to play miniature-golf. It was a lot of fun, even though my results were not very impressive. But I think the most important thing is when you actually enjoy the people around you which I totally did.

Art can be controversial, edgy and well...a bit scandalous...
Ok, before you will watch some of the picture that me and Tim did today, I just want to warn you that couple of them might seem a little inappropriate, but you have to understand that art, especially photo-art, is often not exactly serious, and sometimes comes across as a bit edgy and controversial. We were not trying to be rude, offensive or anything of this kind. Remember that all these pictues are more of a joke, and are a bit of free interpretation of 21st century culture.
Other than that, I think that shots are very sharp and professionally-edited and quite express the contemporary American teen culture, which appears as quite challenging and rebellious at times.
Californian Inspirations
I don't know why I came up with this photo-shoot today, but I think it ended up looking pretty cool. Quite unusual at least.
Almost Colorado...

Funny enough the view right outside the house where I stay here in California totally reminds me of the one I had last summer in Colorado. What a deja vu:) Mountains are really gorgeous. And it's so hot here, feels like there is no air-flow. 5 minutes after you're out in the sun, the body starts feeling dehydrated. Almost feels like desert. Well, I like it this way.
This week on Thursday I am probably going to visit high-school that my friend Tim goes to, and I will have a chance to share some cultural experiences with the kids there. Should be quite interesting.
I'm in California again!

Well, funny enough, they didn't charge me any money for extra-luggage in the airport on my way to California. I had 58 pounds in my suitcase, so I replaced 8 pounds to my carry-on bag, and this way I ended up with carry-on consisting of a stuffed backpack and a big(!) handbag that should normally have been checked in, but somehow, I managed to carry all that stuff on board without paying extra $$$:) By the way, weird new regulation that you have to pay 15$ even for your first checked-in bag. Maybe it's just United Airlines, but to me it really is an awkward thing.
It's really nice to be back in California; as soon as we went outside the airport today in Los Angeles, I immediately felt the hot Californian air. It looks like I am going to have one additional month of summer; well, technically, it's still only 3rd month of summer for me, because August in Washington was not exactly what you would call a summer month.
Anyways, today I was spending today with my friend Tim that I am staying with here and his family and his other friend, we went to the movie-theatre (haha, it's been my second time in the movie theatre in USA this summer after that time back in June in NYC; I guess I am so used to watching all movies on-line:), and then had some pizza at a pizza-place where Tim is working.
I am really tired right now, I guess it's just the night at the airport and a little jet-lag, but I think by tomorrow morning I will be fresh and all ready for new adventures:)
