Trip to L.A.

So I realize that I've been absolutely terrible in updating my blog, I guess I've just been so busy...or lazy...depends. There is a lot that has been going on such as me moving down to Colorado Springs for my new job as a case manager for child support. I also got myself into a relationship, ha ha.

The most recent event that's happened though is my trip to L.A. I bouth tickets a few months ago to go to Herbalife Extravaganza 2010 in L.A. with Mallory. It's a big training/convention that Herbalife puts on for all it's distributors. This year it was in L.A. where the company headquarters are. I booked our flights and Mal booked our Motel a few days before our trip. The flight wasn't bad, however I HATE flying.

























When we got to L.A. we decided to hit up the beach because we wouldn't be able to check into our motel for a few hours. L.A. City bus transportation was our means of locomotion, so we found our routes and headed to the beach. The beach was beautiful, however, our stomachs were growling so we hit up a restaurant to get some food in our tummies. We came across a nifty looking place that was currently serving breakfast. It was called Scotty's. It was delicious, so good that Mal and I have decided that every time we come to California we're going to hit up Scotty's.



































After breakfast it was time to check out the beautiful California beach. We walked up on the pier and gazed at the beauty. Mal loves how the ocean is endless, it just goes on forever. Mal is actually from California and really enjoyed being home. I could tell she missed the California Beaches and the Ocean.

We also went down to the surf to see how cold the water was, it actually wasn't that bad, it kind of felt good. So we played in the sand and in the surf for a little bit. We were having a blast until....terror struck! My phone had dropped into the surf! My poor blackberry storm which I loved so much was now drenched in the Pacific Ocean and the California beach! There was no salvaging it...it was gone forever, no longer working. :-( I was quite depressed.

Aside from my phone ending up in the sea, Mal and I had a blast. The first night of the conference was a recognition night and also a party. We got to mingle and get to know some other nutrition club owners and distributors and listen to their success stories. It was quite motivational.

























The next two days were even more inspirational and motivational. The conference was just spectacular overall and I'm really glad we went.
I can't wait for next year's Extravaganza! And I've got myself a goal...President's Team by next year! Yeah Baby!
