Sprinkles Cupcakes @la jolla

I heard about this place from my clients that people actually lines up for cupcakes. im like realli?in san diego people line up? lol
i dont like waiting in long lines but i was so curious of what it tastes like and i always look for new places to get good sweets/food so i decided to go with my friends few weeks ago.
the line wasnt too bad, it was about 15~20min wait. i mean, its bad but not as bad as what i heard, which is close to an hour wait. i think the reason why lines form is 1)even though all they need to do is box up the cupcake you choose, they still take awhile until they give it to you. 2) the store itself is very small, no indoor seatings. take outs only.
i got red velvet, chocolate and marshmallow, dark chocolate, and orange
i think i liked the chocolate and marshmallow the best. surprisingly the other ones were sweeter. the red velvet and orange had too much icing on the top that it was too much for me. still they were all very good
they also have this thing where you say the magic word of the day and they give you a free cupcake. i tried to find the word but couldnt find the one for san diego :[ i dono if ill line up for it again but ill go in if i happen to drive by and i dont see any lines (like thats ever gonna happen....)

Linkin Park @viejas arena

This was on sunday night. i thought viejas arena was at viejas so i was thinking "man, its gonna b a long drive. coming back is gonna suck" but it was actually at sdsu, never knew they changed the name for that arena lol

right after work i picked up my friend and went over to sdsu. traffic was horrible, there was a line of car waiting to get into the parking lot. they even charged for parking too it sucked lol the line to get into the arena was pretty long too, they seperated the seating ticket and floor ticket so our line wasnt so bad. one for seating was retarded long so im glad we bought the floor tickets. my client told me the tickets were sold out so there was alot of ppl. once we got in we waited for about an hr for the opening band to start playing. The Prodigy was the opening band and i never really got into them so i didnt recognize any of their songs lol. cool music and but the music was too loud i can barely hear the vocals. i checked few of their music videos on youtube, sounds pretty good. i might download an album if i hav time.

so after they were done and the setups linkin park finally started playing :] i expected them to play most of the stuff from their new album, thousand suns (which i absolutely hate) you might be thinking "than y r u here?this tour is all about that" but i never saw LP live before and its pretty rare for me to b able to attend any big events like this since i have work all the time. anyways, they played mostly their old songs yay :]
ofcourse they played some of their new songs, they sounded ok, mayb cuz at live i get a different feel of the music, sounded better than i would hear it in my car.

it was an awesome show and i will continue to listen to linkin park<3

Vivienne Westwood in West Hollywood

I went to LA yesterday to go visit my friend and we decided to go around Melrose area for some shopping. I saw the sign "Vivienne Westwood coming soon" about 6month ago and they have no information about the store online so I had to drive by the main strip and look out for it. i was able to find the store and they said it was the fourth day open. I was hoping they would have the armour ring and the orb lighter pendant I wanted but they didnt have that much selection of jewelry and said they would have more stuff come in later. I ended up buying a belt loop and a necklace. something i wasnt planning to get but i think it looks cool.
