ALL THAT SMOG THOUGH.
Ahh, thank goodness for the existence of Saturdays. This week has been pretty hectic for us two especially since we both had our math midterms on Friday. With everyone gone and off doing their own things, we decided to go on an adventure in Sawtelle!
We took the UCLA bus/trolley from our hall into Westwood then walked to the bus stop. They really should have the trolley working on the weekdays because Supermarket Saturdays is just not enough. Anyway, we got on the bus and reached Sawtelle in about thirty minutes. Our first stop was at the UCLA Thrift Store. Honestly, it's not that big and the items are slightly overpriced for what recycled bags and shoes should be worth, but the clothing items aren't too bad. We would definitely prefer a Goodwill or Salvation Army though.
After browsing through the store, we proceeded to our next stop: Daiso. If you don't know what it is, it's a really cute and affordable Japanese store. They have pretty much everything in there from home decorations to face makeup for only $1.50 each (or $3.00 for certain items). It's just an amazing place, especially for two broke college girls. Afterwards, we spent a good hour in Marshalls and Michael's so that Tina could pick up some stuff for the dorm room and her scrapbooking needs.
Now if you know Westwood well enough, you would also know that there is absolutely no good boba within walking distance--with the exception of Hedrick Late Night now, but there's not much of a variety. So when we got to Sawtelle, we seized the opportunity to satisfy our cravings at Coco's. The line there is always so long! We waited about ten minutes until it was our turn to order. Oh wells.
Our very last stop before we headed back to school was at a nursery so that we could take pictures. All the flowers are just so beautiful there! We're definitely coming back one day for more pictures with the other girls huhuhu.
Hope y'all also had a wonderful Saturday!
xx Kim & Tina
