My Opinion on Miami Florida-Beautiful and Unforgettable

Happy Earth Day everyone! I hope each and every one of you has had a wonderful day.

 The rain let up on us in Northern California today so that was pretty nice. I love the rain, but too much rain can really get me down in the dumps. I'm also not a giant heat person either so I am constantly having a predicament when it comes to the weather so I try to just ignore it altogether sometimes. One place I'll tolerate the heat because of my deep love for the place is Miami Beach FL it is one of my favorite places on earth, and I hope to go there soon. It has been years now and I am longing to be there so badly. I miss the tropical weather there, the powdery white sand beaches, the aqua blue water, the sky scrapers, the cultural diversity, the one of a kind boutiques, the festive nightclubs, and the tasty to die for dishes. If you are looking for a life changing escape, this is the place to go. Miami is incredible and the people are just great, almost everyone is very welcoming and extremely open minded to diversity. Overall the majority of the people here seem to be extremely non judgmental opposed to California, yet it is hard to say it as a matter of fact because I cannot read every ones mind either so this is just an assumption. If anyone is considering visiting Miami I would check out this link Florida Visitor's Guide and look up Miami and South Beach. South Beach is in Miami and it is just awesome, I am in love with the place I mean absolutely gorgeous. It has the best nightlife anyone could ask for in my opinion and while you are in FL if you decide to go I also highly recommend venturing off into Coconut Grove and other nearby city's and towns. Everything about South FL is great. There is an art district as well that is supposed to be super exciting, I haven't been but I am sure it is just great. The Loew's Hotel is very nice, but it can get a little pricey if you are staying for more than 2-3 nights. There are other places to stay in Southbeach and they are all quite lovely. If you are going to go to FL then I wouldn't recommend staying outside of Southbeach, because that is where the action is and if you stay somewhere far then you won't feel involved or apart of the whole energy that it has to offer, and this changes everything. If you are going to travel, you must do it right!

Japan Town Adventures


Japantown, SF's gem
How awesome is San Francisco? It is one of the most awesome places in the United States in my opinion, but it's the details that make San Francisco what it is, and my favorite detail in SF is Japantown is its own little town and it is truly unique and amazing in its own traditional way. Outside of Japantown everything is built to look like traditional Japanese structures, all of the architecture is Japanese looking, and every single store is Japanese oriented. It actually feels like you're in a different world, and to top it off there is a really great movie theater as well called the Kabuki, and it's been there since I can remember as a child, and I'm now 22 so a good chunk of time that I know of at least. There are 2 large city blocks full of stores, one of the blocks is filled with outdoor city street stores with the Japanese theme, and then across the street there is a mall that is split into two buildings with a giant outdoor courtyard imbetween the two. Each of the malls are quite amazing they are both filled with tons of shops, but not just any American shop, they are heavily themed with Japanese appareal. There is an awesome indoor pond as well, that has a connecting fountain that can put you in a very relaxing zone if you close your eyes. It feels so safe here that you could almost forget that you are in a big city, this is what makes Japantown one of my favorite places to go. You can go to any of the restaurants here and walk out happy as a clam. You can't go wrong with any of the restaurants, and if you like crepes there's an awesome place in the mall that you must go to. They put whipped cream throughout the crepe and they make their crepes soft  not crispy or burnt in any way! I love how soft their crepes are, I have yet to go somewhere that offers it this way. I always get the Nutella, strawberry, banana, and whipped cream crepe here, but they also offer ice cream, yet I always pass because it tends to hurt my teeth a lot. I got Katsu Don Buri at my favorite Japanese restaurant where you can walk out spending under $25 for two people! Awesome huh? I'll post the name here when I find it. I highly recommend Japantown to anyone that wants to have a fun filled day in San Francisco without having to deal with rude neurotic psychopaths! The parking is fairly cheap and the people mind their own business, and the shops are fun and full of great goodies! There is even a $1.50 warehouse size store at the mall filled with Japanese goodies, it is addicting to shop here I have to say! I spent $150 here and walked out with 2 X-Large shopping bags full of goodies, I mean I was so carried away that the clerk was giggling the whole 10 minutes she was finalizing all of my purchases!! She thought I was just hilarious, and I have to admit I was laughing at myself as well. What can I say, I do it big most of the time or I don't bother at all. There's always the imbetweens in life though when you just do things in the middle/average, I mean I'm not a super freak, I'm just an average freak, lol.

My Faith Filled Morning

It is a morning filled with ideas, I for some reason cannot seem to get myself to want to write during the day for the life of me. As soon as the clock hits 12 am I am rearing and ready to write! This happens every single night, I need to get to bed earlier this is out there! Today was a beautiful day filled with experience just like the last, but with its own uniQue one of a kind fingerprint also like the others. There is no day that is quite like the last exactly at least. Life is a wonderful thing if we appreciate it. If we can learn to love life it will love us in return, all we have to do is show ourselves and life a little bit of respect and give it a little bit of faith and hope, and when we do this we are acknowledging that there is a possibility that things can be positive. By acknowledging this we are saying that we believe in happiness even if we aren't truly 100% happy at the time, sometimes it takes a while to pick up most of the pieces and get into the routine of being happy. It can take a long time depending on how deep the sadness or depression is, but with relentlessness we will get what we are aiming for, no doubt about it. Having faith is a huge thing and it is very hard for most people to have faith, it only takes being a little open minded to have faith it isn't too hard, you just have to open up your mind and make an agreement with yourself that you are going to try to do things different for once, that you are going to keep your eyes your ears and your heart open to the possibility that there in fact is possibility in life. Interestingly put, I know but it makes sense if you listen close enough. My lesson for the day is to practice believing in something, and a little belief can turn into solid faith. In other words take a leap of faith, and it is then that you will be able to feel  with your heart.

Today is April 15th, 2011

I must take this site's virginity alas! I have been dieing to type a few words in my new blog I have to tell you. Writing is the best possible release of all time, it has been for ages and there is nothing else like it; I mean absolutely nothing like it. Life has been very exciting in its own secretive way. Life has a way of hiding things from me in which I subconsciously know the truth to, I assume that life just does this because we all have to figure things out for ourselves, because if we don't then it is very hard to grow or for our experiences to leave imprints on our soul's DNA. I find it amusing and at times frustrating that life is full of so many surprises, never ending puzzles of fun that we will absolutely never find out. There is no end to something that seems to have no beginning, which is almost everything if you ask me. I am extremely grateful to have what I do, I am in love with my life and I would change nothing, not even the hard times I've had growing up or the other ups and downs life has handed me, because without all of these moments I wouldn't be who I am now, and I wouldn't understand things the way I now do. My mindset is forever growing and blossoming as my spirit leads the way. My heart is my compass in this huge land of mystery that my intuition playfully unfolds the truth to, and my 6th sense constantly finishes puzzles while I'm out multitasking. Life is my playground and I intend to find a million ways to make use of each and every object in it. My spirit is free and my heart is full of love, I'll swim through the warm night skies with sparkle dust for the whole world to feel in the magic.
"To live is to love", love this quote with all my heart.
