Four L.A. Things


I've been tagged by Mike at Franklin Avenue with a meme that has been making the rounds in the Los Angeles blogosphere. I must admit I found this questionnaire difficult to complete.

Four Jobs I've Had in My Life in L.A.

1) Accounting Assistant (Student Worker) at USCard
2) "Denim Expert" at Old Navy on 3rd Street Promenade
3) Zoning Enforcement Officer at L.A. County Dept. of Regional Planning
4) Principal Planner for Countywide Studies, also at L.A. County Dept. of Regional Planning

Four Movies About L.A. I Could Watch Over and Over

1) Friday
2) Swingers (stole this answer from Mike)
3) Clueless
4) Volcano (stole this answer from Mike)

Four Places I've Lived All Over L.A. (With Food Memories From Each)

1) Trojan Hall (a dorm on the USC campus)...I mostly ate at EVK, the student cafeteria...unlike most of my peers, I thought the food was pretty decent, and I lived for Sunday Brunch!
2) Troy East Apartments (USC Off-Campus Housing)...I had easy access to Fig, the greatest concentration of fast food outlets in the entire metropolis, including the notorious Chano's
3) The Evanston (on Kenmore near Wilshire)...I enjoyed more Korean food than I could handle, plus fish and chips at the HMS Bounty
4) My current digs (on Serrano in East Hollywood)...within walking distance of the original Zankou Chicken as well as Los Feliz Village, boasting Electric Lotus, House of Pies, and Palermo

Kathryn: you should be reading CardMart and Paradox Unbound.

Mitch: I'm thinking up some good answers for this. I'll post 'em on CardMart tomorrow. Right now I'm actively avoiding blogging because I have a biology exam tomorrow that I'm trying not to fail... and it's kind of difficult not to blog since there is a storm on the horizon involving the Daily Trojan and Marshall, and I know about it, and want to say something =)
