Yesterday I met my friend at her school after she was done for the day. I walked there, next to the highway, loving the mountain view and discovering places like Atlantic records and the Warner bros. big water tank that is so iconic and pretty cool to see up front.
New York Film Academy here is about twice as big as my department at Battery park, and even so the L.A. department has 3 different campuses. One main for most of the programs, one for acting for film and one with offices and extra equipment rooms and studios.
Inside NYFA L.A.. The design is just like NYFA in NY!
This is the Warner bros. recording studios for music. Lincoln Park comes here.
Central Perk from Friends! The cafe is not here though :/ Friends was filmed just a few miles away in a studio!
Original costumes and props from The Harry Potter movies
Outside Warner bros. studios tour. Inside were those costumes you saw above and souvenirs from their shows; Friends, Harry Potter, the superhero movies, Gilmore girls..etc.
Even the gas station has palms!
The road leading up to her school. Palms neatly by the side!
The water tower, right next to her school!
Yesterday we decided to really just have a day at home, relaxing by the pool and having time in the evening to talk and not have anything on the program other than being together here. We got some extra groceries and sat up late talking to around 4 am! Reminding me of those old summer nights in Portugal with my family and especially Farmor.
Me and Nekisa rewinded 8 months of our lives and talked about our whole experience, and I in particular about how I handled the passing away of my grandma - she told me how she got the news and her first instinct was to call me right away, but she was askd by my dad to wait a bit.
It was both strange and emotional to talk about almost a whole year of experiences that we for the first time hadn't been so close and had so much time to go through with each other.
We watched a movie too and sat by the pool for a bit. Some time hopefully this holiday I will get her into the pool ;) But for now I'm the crazy water animal!
For tomorrow we have plans to have an easy day with not too much of a trip too. Some friends have invited us to the movie theatre and a party, where I can see all her friends from school.
Sunday is for the beach and Monday is for dowtown Disney, we hope. I HOPE <3
Update on that coming soon!
Much love, Jaz
