My little boy is going to grow up thinking the most important event in the history of LA was the day Daddy opened his restaurant. It's different now, for some of us anyway.
But people are always wrong about LA.
Take the whole 'shallow' thing.
We have that.
But we have fifteen million people. And most of us are pretty real.
Down to earth.
Working hard, making a living, raising families, going to school.
I would tell people that LA is a really cool place with really cool people.
It's not like reality TV or anything stupid like that.
Conclusion
Los Angeles is a city with many faces. All of these different faces come here for their own reasons. Some are born here, some have arrived from another place. But all want to be here. There is something magical that captures the spirit of this city. LA has everything, including some things people do not want, like traffic. But the combination of wonderful things attracts people. I myself have been attracted to come here, and I think that I see in my own thoughts many of the things that people said in the interviews. I see that...
We arrive with ideas about the city and soon those ideas are turned around. They are changed, just as we are.
What surprised me most about the responses is how similar they are, despite the people giving them being so different. People may love different things and hate different things, but they still have the same general sense about the city. The two people who are from here also differed somewhat from the three people who are from someplace else. The native people have had to adapt from the LA they grew up with to the LA that they have today, and find their own path. This is the same process I think that newcomers have. We must all take the things we love in LA and make a greater life with that goodness.
I saw so many things the same with what people said in the interviews and my own thoughts. I think we all share a common dream, and have chosen this as the place to follow that dream. So I see myself in the different people I talked to and in the different people all around me. We are the same, in our soul, and we can all relate to each other on that level no matter how different we are on the outside.
Las Vegas V. Waikiki Although one is in the middle of the desert and the other on an island in the middle of the sea, Las Vegas and Waikiki draw visitors and new residents year-round.

It is near San Diego, California. La Posta pluton as well as the outer Japatul Valley pluton both have elliptical, roughly round, or elongate/irregular shapes.
