Cali is the place for ME!

For Spring Break my mom and I went out to Beverly Hills, California to meet my nose doctor~ Dr. Nassif! We had a great time soaking up the sun and enjoying the weather! When we first got there we said that we would just take a taxi everywhere since we had NO clue where anything was, well that was a short lived decision. After taking 2 cabs rides and spending $55, we decided to rent a car. As long as we could find Wilshire Blvd. then we could find our way back. Wilshire is the main drag that is about 30 miles long~ it just keeps going and going. Then I started to pay attention to what streets ran parallel to Wilshire so I would know how to get back. Everyone drives crazy in Cali, they are constantly cutting people off and when the speed limit is 35mph they go 50mph. The only bad part is when you want to site see you really can't unless you want someone blowing the horn at you. I would fit right in because that was my kind of driving.


I had a Doctors appointment to go see Dr. Nassif for a consultation. I was so excited to meet him. His consult coordinator, Jade Gerald, was so great, she was very easy to talk to and went over any questions or concerns with me before going to see Dr. Nassif. She also had her nose done by Dr. Nassif. She then took us down the hall to another room where we waited to Dr. Nassif to come in and evaluate me. I couldn't wait for him to come through the door....but I was being as patient as I could be. You know how at most Dr. Offices you have to wait 10 minutes before the Dr. comes in, well he was only about 2 minutes and in he comes! What a gentleman! We discussed my concerns of what I would like to achieve with the surgery and then he assessed it and told me what needs to be done according to him after looking at it. Then he took a picture of me from the side and front then we went into his office and he put them up on the computer screen and modified them to show me what it will look like afterwards~ can you say ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, PERFECT, UNBELIEVABLE! I was IN LOVE! To see the way my nose could look is just astonishing.


We also went to Venice Beach while out in Cali, and it looks exactly how it looks on TV. People are working out(Muscle Beach), playing basketball, volleyball, running, rollerblading, and biking. We laid on the beach for a little bit and then watched a game of basketball. Their are so many interesting people out, some guys where trying to sell their CD's to make some money and get their names out, some people playing saxophones, clarinets, a guy walking around with a sign that said "World's Best Winery." Just different things happening than what we are used to in OHIO.



My favorite part of the trip(besides Dr. Nassif) was going to RODEO DR. The buildings alone look so beautiful. They have every upscale store you can think of there: Louis Vuitton, Versace, Tiffany & Co.(where I got a ring to match my bracelet and necklace), Coach, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Cartier, etc. Lots of stores to spend lots of money.

Going to California was the best trip of my life....someday I WILL live out there!
