Hey,
I wanted to talk about the first weekend arriving in LA. More specifically "orientation weekend" for the ladder program. It can be a scary experience coming to a new place and not knowing where you are. The first weekend here gave us an opportunity to get more acquainted with our surroundings. We went to dinner as part of our orientation weekend down near Venice Beach. This was awesome to initially experience some quality food because it is harder to find good food in a smaller and less diverse place...i.e. Utah. On Sunday we were able to get some directions and our very own Thomas Guides to LA. A Thomas Guide is a book with a ton of maps for all the streets that you will end up going down by mistake. So we went on a scavenger hunt to find our respective workplaces and how to get there, along with a stop at a local favorite Barney's Beanery. A sort of restaurant/bar that is very popular. We ate some good food and were able to find out how to get to work before actually having to go Monday morning. That night we had a barbecue at Heidi's house which let us meet a few former interns. This was awesome to hear from previous interns who now work and live out here.
Overall orientation weekend was a blast!
