MY WEEK IN PHOTOS: SEPTEMBER 14 – 20, 2015!

MY WEEK IN PHOTOS: SEPTEMBER 14 – 20!
This week it rained in LA and I got real excited, went on a rollercoaster of emotions saying goodbye to my close co-worker and also literally went on rollercoasters at Six Flags! Lots of work on my user experience design project, and some celebratory crappy eating at the LA County Fair.

Enjoy!

It’s a moody Monday

My favorite thing is discovering Gilmore Girls and SVU casting crossovers

One day I’ll own an iron

Gotta love the pug socks

Walk down the hill was full of wildlife sightings

I heard it was supposed to rain…hope it happens!

The pups wearing jerseys is just the best

Trying to be better with NO SCREENS in bed (except answering texts or whatever). My eyes have been really fatigued between work and working on my UX project all the time.

Very quick read, but a good design vocab lesson.

IT RAINED. HELLO!!!! IT RAINED IN LA!!! WOOO!

Beautiful beautiful rain!

I was SO EXCITED that it rained that I busted out my first scarf of the season. It took a lot of thinking, which colors, etc. Too bad I was so excited that I forgot my sweater…

Back at Kiki’s we got straight to crafting. Attempting to make a little congrats banner for Kiki’s coworker.

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
If the letters look funky it’s cuz I had to draw them backwards on the other side of this glittery paper

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
Kiki cut out the flags, I cut the letters out. A true beautiful lady collaboration

It’s definitely more fancy BBQ, but that salad was SO GOOD. There was some kind of pesto yummy zesty sauce on the salad.

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js

We were rushing off because Kiki got free passes to Six Flags Magic Mountain through work and we had some rollercoasters to ride.

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
Started off with a bit of a clunker. Ninja, though apparently the first hanging rollercoaster on the west coast?

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js

We gobbled up some Dippin’ Dots while waiting for Twisted Colossus

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
In line met a fellow Totoro lover!!! Also lemme just say that Twisted Colossus is the craziest rollercoaster I’ve ever been on…SO FUN. And really the first time I’ve been scared on a coaster. Your face just comes so close to these tight turns and my stomach felt suspended for the whole thing. Here’s one of those silly POV on the coaster videos…but…yeah…if you’re ever at Six Flags.

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
Here’s a side view of Twisted Colossus (you can see the drop is basically 90 degrees)

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js
