It feels like a long time now since I had my last vacation. I have to live with it since I invested in a condominium and a parking slot. Add to that the monthly payments for my house loan and my salary gets eaten up quicker than you can say HEY! I tend to envy […]

still the same.
Frankly, the very first thing that comes to mind when people talk about Los Angeles is HOLLYWOOD!
However, L.A. is not just about Hollywood. Okay, what then you might ask? How about food trucks?! You might not notice it at first but try to stroll around L.A. often and you will then notice just how many food trucks there are scattered around.
Food trucks are a hot commodity in many states. People love food on the go considering many of us have busy schedules and lives. And the thing is, the food they sell ain’t bad either. Ever wonder why so many people line up in trucks? Simple food, delicious taste.
If you stroll around L.A. it would be better if you know someone who can show you the ropes around pretty quick. Time is gold and considering how large L.A. is, you need someone who lives there to show you the best places there are.
It’s not just Hollywood. Ever went to places where celebrities frequent during awards ceremonies? Make sure you go to the Nokia Theater. That is where you can find the Walk of Game nearby.
Or how about going to Staples Center to watch the L.A. Lakers or enjoy baseball watching the Los Angeles Dodgers?

Well, I just got back and I will be reporting for work starting tomorrow so tomorrow will officially be the start of 2014 for me.
Unexpectedly, I had an unusual but fruitful vacation. The company I work with changed its policy to not convert our unused vacation leaves to cash. So I used that to my advantage and used all of them. Add to that with some lucky in-between national holidays in the country and I had a month long vacation away from work.
First time.
While I did not go home to my hometown for the holidays right away, 2 weeks there was very satisfying. I had some pretty good sleep even if I slept late at times. The important thing was to have at least 8 hours of sleep every day.
The cold weather also helped big time because it made me lazy so the urge to sleep kept me dozing off. And the fact that our dog did not bark during the early hours of the morning and the music of the nearby church did not blast its speakers to surging decibels, it gave me the opportunity to catch up on lost sleep dating to so many years.
Overall, I have to say that was the best holiday vacation I ever had in my life so far. And boy, did I also pack some weight. Now that I am going back to work, I have to do some adjusting to make my body accustomed to jogging once again.
Losing weight is always hard to do and it is something that I will have to do once again now that my cheat season had ended. More jogging, moderate eating and work, work, work for my future!
