Surreal Lights
Surreal Life again today. This one is going to be short. I just HAD to post it.
My whole semester in LA could be summed up in this one moment I had at the show today. So the show stopped filming yesterday, everone is gone, its over. We are now wrapping up, removing lights, cables, etc. So today at the height of noon, I was sitting by the house-pool, and this is an amazing house with a view of all of san fernando valley, half of LA and just the hills stretching out all around us. And I'm sitting by this inground pool, with my feet dipped in, staring out, eating the wind and unscrewing thousands and thousands of light bulbs. That's RIGHT. Thousands and thousands of light bulbs.
Isn't that surreal. I'm going to have to cross that off my list of things i never thought I would end up doing. Sitting in a house higher than JLos, with my legs dipped in a million dollar pool, unscrewing thousands of milky light bulbs. These light bulbs are strung up and hung from these metallic T shapped trees. And today, we were wrapping so I had to take down these trees and unscrew these light bulbs, put them in boxes, and pack em up until next season in September. Whenever you come across a busines this glamorous, you must be aware that there is an extremely unglamorous aspect to it. Everytime you see surreal life, notice the light-waterfalls, these round white lights that are swaying in the background, those were all put up and taken down by people, and boy, it was routine. I don't think it was boring at all, the people were great, the view was FANTASTIC, but it was just bizarre. Very, how shall I put it, Surreal, shall I say?
