Tori Kelly + The Dodgers

Two major events happened within just a few days! I got to go to a Tori Kelly concert and a Dodgers baseball game! It was my first Cali concert & my first real baseball game and it was so much fun!
Her concert was at the Greek theatre in LA and I went there with Gracie & Madeliene. We were all amazed. She is literally an angel, her voice is insanely good!! And the band Thirdstory played before her and they were real good too! We sat pretty far up so it wasn't the best seats, but it honestly wasn't noticable during the concert. It was an amazing experience, and I am so happy we all went!


Went with a bunch of friends to the Dodgers game and we had a blast watching the Dodgers win! This was definitely something on my bucket list that I am so happy I got the opportunity to go! I am to be honest not that interested in baseball, it's not really a thing where I'm from, although as a fellow sports fan just being in a stadium cheering on a team was loads of fun! I will forever call myself a Dodgers fan as well, I feel like I owe LA that much haha.

Sherman Oaks Library & Gardens

I've made a blogpost about Corona del mar before, and briefly mentioned that it's one of my favourite beaches in LA, and now last time I was here it got another plus! It has first and foremost an amazing beach, that usually isn't too crowded. It also has such a nice town around it with gorgeous houses and it also has probably one of the most beautiful malls I've ever been to just like a 5-10min drive or like a 30minute walk away from the beach.
And only about 10minutes from the beach they have a Starbucks, and just a street away from there Sherman Oaks library garden is located. I've been wanting to go there so many times before but it has always been closed, but this time I just barely made it in! It costs 5$ but we got there just 25 minutes before they were closing so we got in for free, whoopwhoop! It's definitely worth 5$ though, no doubt, it is so so so pretty and it smells amazing!

Ending it with just two nice shots from the beach that same day!

On Top Of The Ritz Hotel

Some crazy friends & myself decided to get on a mission to get on top of the Ritz hotel. A few of them did it last year and decided to try again. Last year they just asked a worker for a key and got to go to the top just to see it, but this year the staff wouldn't let us. But, Stina asked a man that was staying there if we could borrow his and believe it or not, he allowed us too. So funny and so much fun! 
A bit(actually let's be honest, a lot) crappy photos but honestly the view is just amazing up there!! It was such a funny experience.

Mountain Adventures

On our day off this week my roommates and I decided to go on an adventure in the mountains. We drove around up against Big bear and stopped at literally so many places cause it was just so darn beautiful. We got to Big bear lake and drove around it until we came to this little Discover place where we looked up a hike. It had gotten pretty late at that point so we only hiked for about 3 hours. It was GORGEOUS up there. The air was perfect and everything was so quiet and refreshing and peaceful, I loved it! And also, we had Chickfila twice that day. It was just a grand day people.

Kristy at the "discovery" place, lol. Of course she would. 
This was my favourite spot on the hike! Sat down for quite a bit just to reflect and think. I almost forget how much I truly miss nature & the quitness of it until I actually experience it again. 
Places like this makes me in such awe over Gods creation. So thought I'd just end with this little thought that I had during this day. 
If you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, 'move from here to there', and it would move. Nothing would be impossible." ~ Matthew 17:20
This kind of strong, courageous & bold faith + full trust in Him = peace.
